User Exit in 10g - To get client info

Hi all
We have a user exit call in forms 4.5 which returns client info (OS version).
As we are going for 10g, the user exits will reside in AS.
Is there any way by which i can use the same user exit to get client info now ?
Thnx and Regards
Sriram

in the old days of forms 6i we created tons of java-applets for host-commands and so on.
with the first version of webutil all the applets we created ourself were gone, because all functions were in the webutil-toolset.
You can use it beginning with forms 9i. It's very good and easy to use. Look in OTN where the developer-downloads are

i have created one program to import and export excel to forms vice versa, if the form is attached with webutil its working fine am using ole2.but i have a new idea if i add this program in menu, it can be used for all the forms attched to that menu, i made program also, but problem am facing right now is if the form is not attched with webutil it will not work so is there possiblity to share my webutil from one form to another form ,so i will keep one form as a interface form in that webutil will be attched ,i can share that webutil to all other forms so that all the forms no need to attach webutil again
if its possible means please suggest some ideas

Webutil - get client info

I have a problem, I'd like to gather client info and present that info as my forms application loads but unfortunatley I can't seem to get it to works. I can create a button and place code behind it and gather information that way so I'm confident that my set-up of webutil is ok.
any ideas?

I think its going to be impossible to help you since you make no mention of any symptoms of how this is not working, no error messages, no sample code.
Try the webutil demo and see if that works - that has code for calling the client info webutil code.

Connect Oracle 10g client to the Oracle 10g database behind a firewall

I need to connect an Oracle 10g client to the Oracle 10g database (windows server 2003 box) behind a firewall. I ran into this problem: Port redirection. Port redirection requires the Oracle client to connect to the database using a different port (usually a randomly selected TCP port) than the default or originally configured one. If there is no firewall between the server and the client, port redirection will not affect the actual connection. However, if port redirection does occur with the server behind a firewall, the client will be likely to suffer from a connectivity failure. The reason is simple: the newly assigned port based on port redirection is often blocked by the firewall. Such failures are not uncommon on Windows platforms.
I don't know how to stablished an unique TCP port.
I Enabled USE_SHARED_SOCKET on the Oracle database server, windows registry. Acording to what I read,that will force the server machine to share its port 1521 and thus all clients will stay on that port when connecting to the database. Noticeably, port redirection will not occur with USE_SHARED_SOCKET enabled, but that's true in oracle 8 or oracle 9. In oracle 10g this solution doesn't work.
I will apreciate any help about this. Please!
Thanks in advanced.

Three solutions in order of preference
1 Use Connection Manager on the server (only installed using a Custom Install). This will tunnel all traffic through a single port. It will also allow you to configure allowable nodes
2 Set up shared server to use a fixed port. Disadvantage: shared server has overhead and the number of connections is limited
3 Use shared_sockets. Disadvantage: when you stop the listener everyone is disconnected.

How to Set Client Info in OBIEE

Hi All,
Im accessing Oracle Applications table from OBIEE through database. How can I set the client info so that I can see the data.
Thanks

Hi,
You can execute a script at logon. Check the 'Connection Scripts'-tab on your connection pool. Her you can define a 'Execute on Connect'-script.
This way you can set your client_info en view the Oracle eBS table data.
Good Luck,

How to extract System/Client Info from R/3

Hi All,
Can somebody tell me how do we get the system/client information along with our transaction data coming from two R/3 systems during extraction? If it is possible or not?
If yes in which R/3 table we can find that information?
Regards,
Pooja

Hi Pooja,
The Source System is very specific for each info package . So when you create a infoPackage you are aware about the source System. So add 0SOURSYSTEM in the infoSource and make it a constant value(hard code it).
Hope you got it

Executing an Oracle 9i Client Process from OAS 10g Java Application

Sorry in advance for the long post:
We have a piece of legacy software (Uniface.exe) that contains a good chunk of business rules for an existing system. Uniface client connects to an Oracle 10g database but requires Oracle 9i client libraries. Therefore the default Oracle home for a local machine running Uniface is set to the Oracle 9i client software location.
On the same machine we have OAS 10g (10.1.3.1) running a Java-based middleware product (J2EE). The Java code invokes the Uniface.exe client to run specific business functions. We have in our Java code Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd); where cmd is the Uniface.exe.
It appears that when the OAS Java program executes the Uniface.exe it is using the Oracle 10g client libraries from OAS instead of the Oracle 9i client libraries from the local machine's default Oracle home. When we run Uniface.exe from a Windows command prompt it works fine.
We have noticed that when running Uniface.exe from Java OAS uses its own Windows path and environment variables and does not honor the system path. We wrote a Windows bat script to explicitly set the Oracle home and system path to the 9i location and then run Uniface.exe but this doesn't seem to work.
Any ideas?

OAS sets the ORA_NLS33 environment variable to the OAS 10g home location (F:\Oracle\10.1.3.1\OracleAS_1\ocommon\nls\admin\dat). Setting it to my Oracle 9i client location (C:\Oracle\product\9i\ocommon\nls\ADMIN\DATA) appears to have solved the problem.

What JDBC client info is sent/available in the DBMS?

Hi all.
If 10 JDBC connections are made to the same DBMS,
(scott/tiger), five from one JVM and 5 from another, is
there a query that a third-party can run that will be able
to identify which five connections are from JVM A and
which are from JVM B? For instance, if JVM A is on a
different box than JVM B? Ie: does the client login protocal
send the client IP address/OS process ID?

To get questions like :
-What is diferent between struts action and action data?
-How to develop with modules? If i'd like to have login, forum, calendar modules and use them in difrent application.
- ...what can be done with jdev 10g an also how
Any links or book titles would be fine or suggestions how to learn developing j2ee applications with jdev 10g.
By the way I am studen who'd like to learn as much as possible to be a good developer for j2ee applications.
Hope it's not to late.

Problem with OO4O opendatabase() call, migrating the client from 9i to 10g

I have the following code:
VARIANT* pvaparams = new VARIANT[3];
if (pvaparams == NULL)
return NULL;
for (int nIndex = 0; nIndex < 3; nIndex++)
VariantInit(&pvaparams[nIndex]);
pvaparams[0].vt = VT_I4;
pvaparams[0].lVal = ORADB_ORAMODE;
pvaparams[1].vt = VT_BSTR;
pvaparams[1].bstrVal = bstrConnect; //user and passwd
pvaparams[2].vt = VT_BSTR;
pvaparams[2].bstrVal = bstrDBname; //database name
VARIANT va_out;
VariantInit(&va_out);
va_out.vt = VT_DISPATCH; // expect IDispatch* for database
DISPPARAMS params = {pvaparams, NULL, 3, 0};
EXCEPINFO eInfo;
unsigned int uiArgErr;
//dispid_OpenDatabase OK, previously obtained
hRes = m_pIOracleSession->Invoke( dispid_OpenDatabase, IID_NULL,1033,
DISPATCH_PROPERTYGET , &params , &va_out,
&eInfo, &uiArgErr );
if ( FAILED( hRes ) )
throw new COracleDBXception(eInfo);
This is from an application developped in VC++ 5 which uses COM and OO40 for connecting to a 9i database; and works fine, with a 9.2.0.1.0 client.
I have updated the server to 10g and kept the client and it's running OK.
After that, I have installed the 10.2.0.1.0 client and it's not working anymore; the odd thing is that the call to Invoke() has succeded and hRes is 0, but there is no connection to the database!!!
I set a breakpoint after Invoke() and, from PL/SQL Developer, the "select OSUSER, PROGRAM, TERMINAL from v$session t where username='NORO';" command reports nothing; with the 9i client, it was reporting 1 connection.
I would like to add that I had uninstalled completely the 9i client and after that I installed the 10g client.
Can anyone give me a hint?
Thank you!

If this function is called from DllMain(), it works. But if we call this function from another method from our .dll, and that method is called via COM from a client, this function doesn't work anymore! We use VC++ 5 and the 10g Oracle client.
Can anyone give me a explanation?
PS: The call to opendatabase() is successfull, but we don't see a connection on the database server and we get a SEGV error: "function not mapped to object".

Hi,
unfortunately u can't gather all information with jsp. for example the dimension of the browser window is only accessable by javascript, because jsp works on the server, not on the client. some infos, you can gather with jsp, i've listed here:
useragent -> request.getHeader("User-Agent");
ip -> request.getRemoteAddr();
referer -> request.getHeader("Referer");

Web services for foms 10g on the forms server.

Hi,
I have created the sample form in 10g (windows based) where it calls the web service to get the currency exchange rate (http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe_as_10g/deploy/callws_fromforms/forms_webservice.htm).
I have now ftp'd the form into my forms server in unix and compiled it using compile.sh. Now my question is, where to add the jar files in the unix forms server. Since my archive.jar and other jar files are in my windows explorer directory, do I need to ftp all that into the forms server? If yes, what exactly do I need to put in the server.
Once I put all the files in the forms server, where do I need to set the paths.
Please advise. Urgent.
Thanks.

I don't know why you need to place them into the CLASSPATH of the target machine? For deployment of my forms from a linux iAS EE installation, all I do is to place the related (and custom) jar files to the iAS BI (business intelligence components)/forms/java directory and then list the jar files properly in the iAS BI/forms/server/formsweb.cfg file's application related section. The jar files then downloaded to the client when they access to the form (via Sun JRE plugin on linux clients or Jinitiator on windows clients). I know I had to place those jar files in CLASSPATH for iDS (forms development) but not for the deployment.
I hope this proves useful
