Can Flex access client-side databases?

I know the usual paradigm is for the database to be on the server, and my app does have a server-side DB, but it is data-manipulation intensive, and I wanted to be able to copy a subset of data from the postgres DB on the server to a postgres DB on the client to speed up the local manipulation.
I was planning to deploy outside the browser using AIR.

  • Hi,can anyone guide me on what is client side database & grid database.....

    what is client side database & grid database..........and what is the difference between Dataguard and stand by database() these are interview questions.........i am dba learner pls explanin me.......
    thanks u all...

    I'm not trying to be funny or mean, but, in my experience, if you don't know what a product/tool/component is, then you should say so. If you give the impression that you do know about a technology in your interview and you are hired based upon that premise, you might find yourself struggling mightily when your employer asks you to 'implement DataGuard by the end of the week'...
    Just some advice. Good luck in your interview!

  • Can you access non-Oracle database with HTML DB?

    Can you access non-Oracle database with HTML DB? If not, will this be possible in the future?
    I realize HTML DB is not an open-source product. However, it is necessary sometimes to get non-Oracle database info. JDeveloper supports this. It does not appear to me that HTML DB does. This is a major drawback to it being a product for more potential applications that rely on other database technology such as MySQL, etc.
    If it is possible, is this brain surgery to do it. HTML DB offers fast simplified development and it would be good if it was built in. Does anyone know of an example of accessing non-Oracle database that is available?

    12282,
    In general, HTML DB gives you access to Oracle database facilities. These include heterogeneous services. Please search this forum for keyword "heterogeneous" and you can follow the threads that interest you.
    As for the comparison with brain surgery, I'd rank them about the same in terms of raw thrill.

  • How can I convert client-side Shared Object in server-side Shared Object?

    Hello world....
    I have a problem...
    I have a program that uses client-side shared Object, like the Example "Ball" il the FMS 3.5 guide: I can move a ball around the stage...
    I need to convert this program so I can use server side shared object. This is because I can load the .swf to another .swf and I must to be able to reset, or delete, the properties of my shared object. With client-side sahred object I can't delete or reset the shared object after I loaded my external .swf....
    My script is:
    private var pointer1_so:SharedObject;
    nc=new NetConnection  ;
    nc.connect (rtmpNow);
    nc.addEventListener (NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS,doSO);
    Cerchio=new cerchio ;
    addChild (Cerchio);
    Cerchio.x=220;
    Cerchio.y=280;
    Cerchio.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,beginDrag1);
    Cerchio.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,endDrag1);
    private function doSO (e:NetStatusEvent):void
                 good=e.info.code == "NetConnection.Connect.Success";
                 if (good)
                       //Shared object
                       pointer1_so=SharedObject.getRemote("point1",nc.uri,false);
                       pointer1_so.connect (nc);
                       pointer1_so.addEventListener (SyncEvent.SYNC,doUpdate1);
    private function doUpdate1 (se:SyncEvent):void
                 for (var cl1:uint; cl1 < se.changeList.length; cl1++)
                       trace(se.changeList[cl1].code);
                       if (se.changeList[cl1].code == "change")
                            switch (se.changeList[cl1].name)
                                 case "xpos" :
                                       Cerchio.x=pointer1_so.data.xpos;
                                       break;
                                 case "ypos" :
                                       Cerchio.y=pointer1_so.data.ypos;
                                       break;

    Can someone helps me?
    I know I need of a server side script but...
    Please...

    ResultSet is not serializable. It is an active connection. If you wish to serialize the info, then read it into an ArrayList in your serializable class and pass the Data that way.

  • I can´t access to the database using SQLPlus

    Hello to everybody,
    I have installed Oracle XE without problems and my listener is running. Anyway I can´t acces to the database, when I try to log in i have this message:

    I have tried to shutdown and restart the database and in startup i have start and mount confirmation messages but at the end appear this message:

  • How can i load Client side XML file to Table

    Hi,
    How can i load the all the XML files (near 10,000 files) available in client machine to the XML table .
    I did try with directrory list in the Webutility demo form, but when the number of file is near to 1,500 its giving error.
    Please suggest the best method to implement my requirements.
    1. XML fies are in a folder in end users machine(Windows OS)
    2. I need to load all the XML files to table (Oracle Database is in Unix)
    I am using forms 10g
    Thanks in advance.
    Rizly

    Hi,
    What is the error you are getting when you reach 1,500 records? Can you post it? You mentioned you are using the webutil to load them. How you are loading? From the client machine you are loading to the database directly? Can you post the code you are using for that?

  • Client side database setting?

    Hi all,
    I currently have an application deployed on the j2ee server. Using the oracle thin driver and datasource. Which all part of the program works fine, if I run it in the server.
    Now, I have copied the files to another remote machine, having a batch file, myApp.ear and some JAR. The program works on the client, but only a part of it. It happens that when the GUI of my program try to use the datasource, it will fail and respone with a "no suitable driver" error. But when using datasource through entity beans, it will work fine.
    Can anyone suggest how to solve the problem?
    Do I need to do anything to make the program knows where the driver is?
    Thanks a lot.

    If you're creating the database connection on the remote machine then it will need to be able to find the oracle driver.
    Check to see if the driver is on the machine.

  • Tree2 parent node  expand at client side

    I have been trying to add the option to parent nodes so that the user can open each tree branch either by clicking on the �plus� or by clicking on the name of the node .
    the node should open both by clicking the �plus� and by clicking the folder name. So far in order to open a node the only way is clicking on the �plus�.
    my tree (myFaces tree2)is in request scope and can be used client side (JavaScript).
    Is this possible? Does anybody have some sample code where this works?
    thanks .

    you can use JDBC thin URL in SQL developer.
    Choose NEW/DATABASE CONNECTION, then put the connection type "Advanced" and then place the jdbc url as :
    jdbc:oracle:thin:@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=RWCORA-cluster-scan)(PORT=1521))(LOAD_BALANCE=yes)(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVER=DEDICATED)(SERVICE_NAME=racdb)(FAILOVER_MODE=(TYPE=SELECT)(METHOD=BASIC)(RETRIES=180)(DELAY=5))))

    (1) In your system there are 3 nodes. The first one is the web
    client running a browser posting HTTP request to your web server.
    Your web server is a server to the web client but also a client
    to your Oracle database server. From the web client browser you
    cannot communicate directly with the Oracle server directly
    through JDBC. Your CGI scripts (you have not specified what web
    scripting tool you are using) written in Java may communicate
    with your Oracle database using the JDBC drivers available in
    your $ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib/classes111.zip file.
    (2) You do not need any JDBC-ODBC bridge to access Oracle
    databases. You should use the Oracle JDBC drivers.

  • Can't succesfully install Oracle Database 10g Express Edition on Ubuntu

    Hi,
    I've been trying to install Oracle Database 10g xe on Ubuntu 10.04 and when I execute the .deb package (oracle-xe-universal_10.2.0.1-1.0_i386.deb) I get a quick installation that doesn't ask me for any configuration settings. When the installation is finished I don't get any menu in my Applications menu named "Oracle Database 10g Express Edition" as specified in Getting Started Guide (I only get some items grouped into an category called "Other" (Backup Database, Get Started, Get Started With Oracle Database 10g Express Edition, Go To Online Forum, Read Documentation, Read Online Help, Register For Online Forum, Restore Database, Run SQL Command Line, Start Database and Stop Database). As a consequence I can't access the Oracle Database Home Page.
    In addition when I click on Start Database I get the following message: "Operation failed. josep is not member of 'dba' group".
    I've tried to re-download the packages and to configure it by editing /etc/init.d/oracle-xe but this doesn't solve my problem.
    can you give me some help?

  • Client side weblogic.management jar

    Hi,
    Could you help me with the following issue?
    I am writing a simple mgmt application that uses Weblogic's JMX APIs remotely
    via JNDI/RMI either from another VM on the same or another box (no firewall issues).
    All is fine except that the weblogic.management interfaces, stubs, and skeletons
    are all part of the huge weblogic.jar.
    Do you know where I can find a client side classes for weblogic.management? I
    noticed that the Weblogic 8.1 distribution comes with client side jars for other
    APIS (e.g. JMS, Web services, EJB etc.) but cannot find one for JMX.
    Thanks a lot for any insight on this,

    Hi Piotr,
    I do not believe there is a client side jar for wl management. This is
    being considered for our next release.

  • Client Side Error Message in Notification Region

    Hi,
    Is there any way I can display my client side validation in NOTIFICATION region.
    My Scenario,
    In my application, I have dynamic Apex Items (Generating Using APEX_ITEM API).
    I have added client side validation (Javascript) when users clicks the button and I am showing my error message in alert window. (which is working fine). But now my customer wants to display the error message in Notification region instead of ALERT message.
    Can anyone help me to solve this issue. Thanks in Advance..
    Regards
    Balaji S

    Hi
    Yup, just create a div in the page template in the right place to hold your messages and give it an id like...
    <div id="noteArea"></div>Now in you javascript, rather than using alerts, you can use
    var noteObj = document.getElementById('noteArea');
    noteObj.innerHTML = 'my message with any HTML needed';Is this what you mean?
    Cheers
