Oracle Forms - Getting started

We have oracle 9i developer which includes forms and reports developer. However I am new to these so can anyone be kind enough to point me in the right direction (recommended books etc) to get started with this. I will be a beginner with DBA background.
Thanks

Its always worth checking out some of the collateral on otn.oracle.com/products/forms
Others on the list may be able to recommend some books they have used.

  • Oracle Forms: getting currently selected item in List

    I've noticed that the method isItemSelected in the oracle.oats.scripting.modules.formsFT.common.api.elements.List class doesn't appear to work. In the drop down lists that I've tested, it always returns true for any item that is in the list (ie the same as isItemInList returns).
    Is there any way to figure out what item is selected in a drop down list in Oracle Forms?

    Hi,
    I am also trying the same for a Select field in a Web application. .selectOptionByText works for input but to get a value from a select box. .getSelectedValue() is not working and also .getSelectedText() is also not working. Not able to get a value at runtime from a select field. Also how to retrive all the options present in a select field in a web application.
    Alex can you help on this.
    Thanks

    We just upgraded to oracle patch set 9.2.0.8.0 Now We are not able to start database.
    you didn´t post the database start log but the SAP system log.
    did you run the necessary SQL scripts to update the database dictionary? It´s not enough to just doubleclick on runinstaller.

    This tells me you are using a 3rd party or locally developed Java Bean to perform some type of print function. Is this correct?
    java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: java.io.IOException: open HTTP connection failed.Does your printtext.jar Java Bean need to open an HTTP connection in order to print?
    Have you been able to print in the past using this Java Bean? Where did you get the Java Bean?
    RegisterWebUtil - Loading WebUtil Version 10.1.2.0Your form appears to be using WebUtil. Has it been successfully configured?
    Honestly, you need to list the following minimum information when you post a question; it gives us all or most of the information we need to help you and it eliminates the need for us to ask for this information. Please always include:
    * Forms Version (eg; 10.1.2.0.0 not 10g)
    * Java Version

  • Getting started in Web Forms development.

    Hi There,
    I hope this is the correct form to be posting in.
    Ok, I would like to get into developing Oracle web forms.. I'm not really sure if thats the correct name. Below is an image of exactly what I want to develop. It is loaded up through a Java applet in the web browser but then loads up into a seperate window.
    http://www.excel4apps.com/oracle/downloads/glwand/3.90/user_guide/images/image198.jpg
    Somebody told me that I need to setup a database server along with an application server for the forms.
    I've been on the Oracle download site but to be honest there is a lot of stuff on there and I don't know where to start..
    I'd appreciate any advice on what is needed to get started and any tutorials people might be aware of. Can I start into this type of development free of charge or will I need to buy some licences for some of the software?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Starting Learning Oracle Form Developer

    Hi Experts,
    i m oracle dba. i wan to start learning Oracle Form Developer 10g . please any one can share documentation that can help me out to start this domain.
    regards,

    Is there a particular reason you are starting with an old version and not the latest (11.1.2.0)? Version 10.1.2 will begin its end of life cycle at the end of this year. Meaning, Error Correction Support will end. Learning with the newest version will give you the advantage of working with the latest features and a more stable version.
    At any rate.... how easy it will be to learn will all depend on your current skill set and your prior experience with other development tools. I would suggest you first get a basic understand of how Forms works before you start to build an application. Building an application in Forms is mostly easy because the more common features are wizard driven. However, understand what to do once you create an app might take a little more thought and an understanding of basic web principles.
    The version 10 documentation (mostly related to deployment) can be found here:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/forms/documentation/techlisting10gr2-093389.html
    Here you will find many white papers which include everything from complex concepts to basic product overviews.
    You can access similar content for all of the recent versions from the top page located here:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/forms/overview/index.html
    The Forms Builder help is a good place for design time information.

  • Getting Logged on User'Information in an Oracle-Form SSO Partner Application

    Hi.
    I could run Flight-of Fancy Application and capture user's information by calling the
    "Parse_cookie " Procedure.(use the Scenario 2 - Access the Portal and then the FOF App)
    and defined an Oracle-Form application as Partner application like FOF.
    I want to have Logged on user'Information in the "Oracle-Form" . But the Fucntion owa_cookie.get dosen't work correctly.please let me know what can I do ?
    Thanks in advanced.

    Hi.

    I want to have Logged on user'Information in the "Oracle-Form" . But the Fucntion owa_cookie.get dosen't work correctly.please let me know what can I do ?
    Thanks in advanced. If you're writing your own partner application, then you are correct to get the user information from the output variables
    from the parse_url_cookie procedure. You should then set the information you want to keep track of in the cookie, or combination
    of cookie and persistent storage in the database. Take care of the security implications while doing this.
    On subsequent calls to your application, the user info should be obtained from the cookie and the database, if you
    are using a combination of the cookie and database storage to keep your info.
    The owa_cookie.get routine is used to read the cookie, which is generated with owa_cookie.send.
    These routines work fine, when invoked correctly.
    If you are having trouble with them, you're probably not using the calls properly.
    The following code provides an example of how to use the owa_cookie calls...
    create or replace package testcookie
    is
        procedure show (p_name IN VARCHAR2);
        procedure send
            p_name    IN VARCHAR2,
            p_value   IN VARCHAR2,
            p_path    IN VARCHAR2 default null,
            p_expires IN VARCHAR2 default null
    end testcookie;
    show error package testcookie

  • Unable to get Windows User Name using Oracle Forms 6i, Jinitiator 1.3.1.17

    Hi,
    Requirement: Get Windows User Name using Oracle Web Forms 6i.
    Tools Using: Windows NT, Oracle web forms 6i, Oracle 10g DB.
    Description: I am using GetClientInfo JBean from otn.oracle.com, which gets windows user name, IP address and machine name. The demo I got from oracle web site uses Jinitiator version 1.1.7.18. While we are using the latest version Jinitiator 1.3.1.17. Due to this reason, I am unable to use Javakey which comes with older version but doesn't come with newer version, that's why I can't create the new JavaBean Java identity (PJC).
    Please advise what to do. All environment variables are set everything is done, this is the only thing bothering me.
    I went through the article 202768.1 from metalink, but on step 5, it gives an error keytool error: java.lang.Exception: Input not an X.509 Certificate.
    Also, please let me know if there is any other workaround for this requirement.
    Thanks & Best Regards,
    Mo

    Hi,
    Thanks for your kind reply. Actually there was a problem in creating a certificate, now it is okay with the same method. Certificate got imported on client and everything is ready.
    Now, the problem is when I try to set Bean Area Implementation Class property with oracle.forms.demos.GetClientInfo, it gives an error FRM-13008 Cannot find JavaBean with name 'oracle.forms.demos.GetClientInfo'.
    I went through the articles 1072329.6, 196824.1, and set ClassPath and Path variables with proper values. Also, I have copied jar file and signature file in forms60/java folder. I don't see any problems. Please let me know what I am doing wrong. My limitation is that I have to do all this in forms6i.
    I searched forums on metalink and found out that someone installed Patch 15, and everything went okay for him. Do you think I should install Patch 15? if YES, how will I do it, I mean should I first uninstall my forms and then install patch15 or install the patch on my forms?
    Thanks so much for your help.
    Thanks & Best Regards,
    Mo
