Call Oracle Forms 11 from ADF

Hi,
I search for a example/source/demo for calling an Oracle Forms 11 "page" from an ADF (ADF Faces -> *.jspx) page.
I use Jdeveloper "Bulldog" with ADF BC and ADF Faces. I need the option to start an oracle forms application (which would build with new forms 11). A second session on databse is unproblematic.
Has anybody an idea? Some information from oracle experts?
Kind reagards.

Forms is started using a url, so the syntax would be like
http://server:port/forms/frmservlet?config=config_sectionconfig_section refers to a configuration-section in the forms-configuration-file "formsweb.cfg" there you can configure everything needed like the name of the form to start and (if desired) the userid and password forms should use to connect to the database).

Opening and Oracle Form (D2K) from ADF

Hi, We have requirement for developing new module in ADF, in parallel with our Oracle Application instance.
I would like to know, if there is any option to Open the Oracle Apps Sales Order form directly from the new ADF module, by clicking on a button.
Thanks,
Aneesh

I could get the URL, but the URL contains an ICX_TICKET number, which is generated dynamically by Oracle Apps. So I can't use a static URL for this.
Do you know how I can use or generate an ICX_TICKET in runtime? My user will have an active Oracle Application screen opened along with ADF web page. He want to navigate to Oracle Apps screen from ADF page. Hopes this makes the requirement more clear.
Thanks for your time,
Aneesh

Call Oracle Forms 6i from UNIX

Hi,
I am new to Oracle forms and I have some querries -
I have a form created on windows environment (.fmb/.fmx). This form accepts a parameter in a text field and calls another Oracle Report. Now my questions are:
1. If windows forms are not compatible with UNIX environment, then how these are converted to be compatible with UNIX/Linux (without re-creating them on different platform)?
2. Can I call the same form from UNIX shell with input as a shell script input?
3. And if answer to the second query is no, then can I invoke Web deplyed froms (on application server) using shell? and how..
I w'd appreciate your help!
Regards.

yes you can call it forms use : f60run forms.fmx username/password@tns
report : rwrun60c yourreportname.rdf username/password@tns destype=file desname=a.lis
but always use HOST command inside the forms, also to send to the printer name that is configured to your server.
host ('rwrun60c /dsk8/ciame/rcption/wagih/reportname xxx/xxxn@xxx batch=yes destype=file desname=$user_output/'||to_char(:blk1.office_emp_no)||'.lis tty_office_no='||to_char(:blk1.office_no)||' tty_emp_no='||to_char(:blk1.office_emp_no)||' tty_rcpt_no='||to_char(:blk2.rcpt_mst_receipt_no)||' tty_rpt_type=0;
lp -d $lp01 -c $user_output/'||to_char(:blk1.office_emp_no)||'.lis',NO_PROMPT);
and if you call another form then you can use open_form,call_form,,... inside the form. Be sure you add in the library your wroking folder.
edit your user profile .
Study this as a case : this is the profile of our mis user in our old character based system.

Call Oracle form from pl/sql

Dear All
How can I call Oracle form from pl/sql and open this form to end user
many thanks

Hshihadah wrote:
how can I show this form to specific client ?What client?!? Database PL/SQL is executed within a process on the database server, it's not something which is executed on the client. Could you please elaborate a little bit more?
By now I have not the faintest clue if you want to
- call a form from another form ( call_form )
- call a form within a database process (?!?)
- call your form from a client you did not tell us (probably APEX?!?)
For the case you really meant to call a form within Database PL/SQL: Just in case you didn't recognize it, but the database is perfectly capable of PL/SQL and as calling a form within a database process is a one-way street as you cannot interact with it there is no point at all in writing the things you want to do in forms. If you want some PL/SQL code executed on the database then...well...put it in a stored procedure in the database!

Would like to ask about Pros&Cons betwwen Oracle Forms, OAF and ADF

Hi,
Is there some material about the pros&cons between Oracle Forms, OAF and ADF, from angles like technical architecture, performance, network efficiency, etc...
Asking this becuase EBS cusotmer is familiar with Oracle Forms and OAF, when we talking about ADF to them, it is quite confused especially about OAF and ADF, finding material to elaborate these 3 technology clearly, thanks
- Liang Yi

Thanks, I check the comparison of OAF and ADF document downloaded from Oracle Support, but it is for ADF10g, I believe ADF11g is much better, and anyone check the comparison table between ADF 10g and OAF R12 would choose OAF.
And, from the document, I saw one line that is very confused, check it out, do not understand what does it mean with "if your application does not need to integrate with EBS... ... you should use ... ... integration with EBS" -_-!
"If your application does not need to integrate with the
E-Business Suite, or doesn't require any of the E-Business Suite-specific
capabilities enumerated above, you should use ADF 10g with SOA based
integration with E-Business Suite."

Open Oracle Forms app from APEX

How can I open an Oracle Forms application from within APEX?
Right now, the Forms app is accessed simply through a Bookmarked hyperlink, so it seems to me I should be able to open a browser window and send it the same url from within APEX. Can someone provide all the details please? Thank You.

I don't know about Oracle Forms specifically... but you should be able to put a link to any arbitrary URL within your Apex application, and have the browser access that URL.
For instance, you can create a button and set that URL as the button's location, or create a Display-Only item with a default value set to a block of HTML including an <a href> tag.

Calling Oracle store procedure from Crystal 11 command

Calling Oracle Forms from ADF - refresh problem makes it unusable!

Hi everybody!
I'm using JDeveloper 11.1.1.4.0 and I need to call an Oracle form (Forms 10g) inside my ADF application. I did exactly what explained in the Oracle doc at this link
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/adf/wilfred-adf-forms-099635.html
and it works fine. I've put the code inside a region that is in a tab page of my ADF application. The problem is that EVERYTHING I do outside that form (changing tab page, pressing a button,...) makes the page refresh and my form resets (actually it's the applet that reloads).
How can I avoid this? Is there any way to make the form stay alive even if ADF events trigger? As it is now launching a form inside ADF is completely useless.
I posted this question also in the JDeveloper forum but nobody is answering so maybe here someone can help.
Thanks in advance for any suggestion
Roberto

In Forms 11g, you can set the following parameter in the Forms Server's formsweb.cfg configuration file "legacy_lifecycle=true", which will prevent the applet restarting when the ADF pages are in between page loads. However, I dont know if this exists in 10g Forms. Give it a try.
Thanks,
Gavin
