Computation/validation processing

I'm working with APEX3.0 - under 'Page Processing' I've created a computation and a validation - both are to initiate after a 'GO' button is pressed. Based upon the doc I've read I assumed the validation would fire first and prevent any subsequent processing if the validation failed. Unfortunately, that's not my case - the computation (seq 30) is executing prior to the validation (seq 20), creating problems with the PL/SQL associated within the computation. I've developed a workaround by duplicating the validation code within a computation condition - this seems redundant and it would appear I don't have the sequence quite right. I just simply need the validation to initiate prior to the computation. Any direction appreciated. Thank you.

Scott,
Thanks for the advice - profile updated. I suppose I don't fully understand your 'process' recommendation - I understand the code you've supplied but not the concept. This is my first APEX application so I apologize for not elaborating. The computation I've created generates the value for an item. This computation requires 2 additional items from the same page (entered by the user) as input. I was hoping to validate the fields prior to the computation firing but as you explained, that is not the order in which APEX processes them. If you could expound a little further on your 'process' advice I'd appreciate it. Thanks again.

Best way to create a multi-step validation process

I am writing a multi step validation process and I was wondering what is the best method to have it operate on the value. What I have:
As a custom validation script, in that order:
1- Calls a function that looks if the value is part of a particular array
2- Calls a function that regroup some tests
     2a- function test1()
     2b- function test2()
     2c- function test3()
     2d- function test4()
What I have now is every test ends as 'event.rc = false' when they fail which is what I need but I also need to stop the entire validation process. As an example, if the value fails test2() and gets a "you have failed test 2" alert, I don't want to call test3() and test4() since it is already decided that it failed one of the tests. I could return a boolean that triggers (or not) the next test() but isn't there a simple way to just say
event.rc = false;
"STOP EVERYTHING";
I have the assumption that break; will only stop the test() but still move on to the next test(). Maybe I can return break; so it will be called from the 'master function'?   Is that even possible?

Create another function and call it from the validation script, something like:
function validate_field() {
    // Call the first validation routine
    test0();
    // Abort if first validation fails
    if (!event.rc) return;
    // Call the second validation routine
    test1();
    // Abort if second validation fails
    if (!event.rc) return;
    // Repeat for any other tests

Validation Process

I have a java code that is calculating the marks of students and giving them there average. I just cant seem to make a validation process run. I need it to allow them to only enter in a number between 1-100, and no letters. this is what i have in the way of code, if you could help me work a validation process to do that into it. thx

Disable Html button in validation process using pl/sql

Hi,
I need to disable a html page button. It gets re-enabled afer a validation process is run on the page and errors for the form are returned. I need a way of writing a validation process using pl/sql returning boolean, that can disable the button again.
I've tried:
IF lname > 0 THEN
Return TRUE;
Else
htp.p('<script type="text/javascript">');
htp.p('document.getElementById("NEW_ENTRY").disabled=true');
htp.p('</script>');
Return FALSE;
End If;
The button id is NEW_ENTRY, but this is ignored and the buttons remains enabled.
Any ideas on how to change the code to work?

You have to create after region process that will be triggered on some condition.
htp.p('
<script type="text/javascript">
document.getElementById("NEW_ENTRY").disabled="true";
</script>
');

Adobe XI processes left open with no threads to a valid process

Processes are being left open after attempts to generate PDF's.
The system is using the latest update for Acrobat XI. This was not an issue with this version before about February, January for sure.
Windows 7 Professional
16G memory
XEON processor
Domain environment
The user makes the request to generate the PDF's, which get generated. But after, a process remains on the system. It has no attachment to the main process that generated the PDF, as that process is gone. The processes have no valid window, however, they have a lock on the file. In order to clear the lock one of two things must happen. Either the computer that was generating the PDF's needs to be restarted, or the locks need to be deleted from the server. Neither one is a good option.
Is it time to look for another PDF product? What works good with AutoCAD?

In your post https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1572490 you show message 'Documents is not a valid short file name'. Now you have the same problem with AI_RecycleBin?

Difference between Computation and Process

Any Computation can also be implemented as a Process. Their "firing points" are also the same.
So, why do Computations exist at all?
Thanks

Vikas - I don't know but computations always fire before processes at any given firing point allowing processes to reference session state that may have been set by a computation at the same or earlier firing point. It's true though that a process can set session state as well, so a computation is just a special-purpose process with declarative attributes that allow for application or page items to be named as the object of the computation. But then a validation is merely a special-purpose process that does what it does. And a branch is a special-purpose process that does a URL redirect or something similar, and before there were report regions there were just processes...

Digital Signature Validation process goes into unending state

Hi all
I am working Adobe Digital Signatures in Web Dynpro Java applications. I have been using [this|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/media/streamingmedia/developer-areas/user-interface-technology/interactive-forms/securing%20online%20interactive%20forms%20by%20adobe%20(Session%208)/index.html?slide=] webinar to follow steps to configure SSL and validation of Digital Signatures.
After doing all necessary configurations, I am able to run my web dynpro applications containing interactive forms in secure mode.
But when I sign with digital signature and try to validate the form, the application keeps on processing and shows no result.
I tried debugging my application but control does not reach my button action code. I am clueless.
I would be thankful to receive any hints or pointers from you.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Fjtorsol,
We hope your issue has been resolved, if you've found solution by yourself. you could share with us and we will mark it as answer.
This high Deferred Procedure Call (DPC) latencies are usually caused by certain drivers, if it is caused by automatic maintenance, please re-check your task schedule which is marked as “when computer is idle”. As what has been suggested by MVP ZigZag, please
use the Microsoft Windows Performance Analyzer from the Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (ADK) to identify the cause of any DPC latency spikes.

Failed Item Validation = Process Before Headers isn't run? (APEX 2.2.0)

Hi, all,
I have an item validation that fails. When the page reloads, I see the following in the debug output:
Do not run process "P41_BEFORE_HEADER", process point=BEFORE_HEADER, condition type=, when button pressed=If that process doesn't run, a flag I used to decide whether or not to display certain Page 0 regions never gets set properly, resulting in a mess.
Is there a way around this? The only thing that I can think of is to run the same code in a failed validation that gets run in my process. Is there a more elegant way?
Thanks!

I ended up finding Page rendering process doesn't run after validation error which basically says to make a PL/SQL region with an empty template and put any display-related PL/SQL there. I set the PL/SQL region's display point to "After Header", which is before any of my other regions.
I have a bunch of P0 regions that get conditionally displayed based on session state items set in the "Before Headers" process. All of the items are cleared by an application After Footer process. I don't want to rely on the session state, however, as the user might navigate using the browser buttons on a failed submit, and that might produce odd results. Unfortunately, I've realized that the application-wide processes don't get run either.
It seems that my option is just to create a PL/SQL function
FUNCTION SHOW_REGIONS
THIS_REGION BOOLEAN := FALSE
, THAT_REGION BOOLEAN := FALSE
, THE_OTHER_REGION BOOLEAN := FALSE
and call that function from my empty PL/SQL region, passing in true values for the regions that I want to show. Either this function would set application-level items, or other functions to get the individual flags could be called from each of the Page 0 region conditional display code. I think I will do the latter, unless there is some better way.
Thanks!

Computation or Process ?

Hi there,
I have the following values in my variable :P4_Linie
-9:TEST1:TEST2:TEST3
Now I know how to convert the ":" into "," and how to replace the -9. The -9 is the "all selector" of a checkbox pluging meaning if all checkboxes are checked the value -9 is given before the checkboxes data so sometimes it is there and sometimes not.
I know how to do this in a select statement:
SELECT * FROM mv_auswertung WHERE INSTR (
REPLACE (:P4_LINIE, '-9', '')
':'||Linie||':') > 0Now I get TEST1,TEST2,TEST3 and now I can use this in a select into query.
But I need apex to do this via PL/SQL process or computation so the item is given to the next page in my items to submit.
I need to submit TEST1,TEST2,TEST3 for my IR. Hoping you can help.
Thx in advance
Thorsten

Thorsten,
Hmm. I have a few ideas, as well.
Do you want the value of :P4_LINIE actually changed to the new value without the "-9:" on page 4 or do you just want the new/changed value available to the new page?
(Related question) Do you want the computation to happen before page 4 is displayed or just before transferring to the new page?
Do you have a Submit button to get to the next page; what's the mechanism for transferring to the new page?
There are two (or more) ways to do this.
-- 1) Merely reference/use :P4_LINIE on the new page? But I think we have to ensure :P4_LINIE is saved in the session state for this to work.
-- 2) Pass :P4_LINIE to :Px_LINIE on the transfer to page x.
But I need to know how you (want to) transfer to the new page.
