Hello !
Which version should I choose 11.1.2 or 11.1.1.6
11.1.2 must me the latest one aka 11gR2
11.1.1.6 must be 11gR1 PS5
Am i right ?
but in the forms home page it seems that the 11.1.1.6 is the latest version ??
Oracle Forms 11.1.1.6 Released
The latest version of Oracle Forms (11.1.1.6) has been released.
This can be downloaded from My Oracle Support (MOS)
23-Feb-2012
Oracle Forms 11g Release 2 has been released. Read about the new features.
Oct-2011
I suppose that in a MiddleWare stack : SOA suite + BI publisher + Forms, the 11.1.1.6 (11gR1 PS5) is the best choice.
Can somebody explain me the differences between Oracle Forms 11.1.1.6 and 11.1.2 ?
Thanks

There are many new features in 11.1.2.0 that do not exist in 11.1.1. Some of the most significant new features are listed in the 11gR2 New Features documentation found on this page:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/forms
Additional information about new features and changes can be found in the product documentation for 11gR2, which is here:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24269_01/index.htm
One important thing to note is that FMw 11.1.2 (11gR2) does not include Portal or Discover. So if you need either or both of these you will need to stick with 11.1.1.Hi Michael,
One of the features which is very very important in my point of view is
Reduced Installation Footprint
In order to reduce the resource requirements on development machines, you can perform an
installation specifically tailored for development. This will limit the number of software products
and servers installed on the machine whilst still allowing a developer to build, run and test their
Forms application.
If this feature is only available for the 11.1.2 release then the choice is made !
Thanks !
Jean-Yves
ps : and we don't use any portal or discoverer :-)

Differences between Oracle 8i for a UNIX Platform and Oracle 8i for a Linux Platform

Hello,
J would like to know if there are some differences between Oracle 8i for a UNIX Platform and Oracle 8i for a Linux Platform.
I know that there are some differences on Oracle 8i Parallel Server and i know that some products are not include like precompiler (Mod*Ada, Pro*FORTRAN) on a Linux Platform.
Thank you.

We have installed Oracle 8i on Solaris 8 and it had a great performance, of course that the hardware and licence invested here was costed my the office where i work. Personaly i'd installed linux reh hat 8 and oracle 8i, imagine that, it could be implemented by any individual that has the time to do so.
By buyinng from a company that has a good background you could be sure that you will have support.
Bottom line, if you have the $ to buy great hardware go for a unix platform. But if you don't a Red Hat Linux Server Licence with a 1 year sopport and Oracle data base is about 3500Dls.

Difference between Oracle forms & Apex

Hi
what are all the differences between Oracle APEX and oracle forms.
explain main features of both
thanks
~noc

~noc,
Oracle FORMS is a traditional IDE tool in that you use to develop a User Interface (UI). APEX is a web service (hosted on an web server) that allows you to create a UI and more, but does not require any software to installed. Everything is handled by the Web Browser. This is a very simplistic explanation, but it will gives you the basic differences between the two.

Difference Between Oracle 10.2.0.3.0 and 10.2.0.4.0

Hi All,
Could any body let me know the difference between two patches of oracle 10g as in development environment patch 4 is installed but on client side patch 3 is running in my scenario.
Thanks & Regards
Adil

The list of bugs fixed in the 10.2.0.4 patchset is in the README for the patchset, which you can download on Metalink in the same place you would download the patchset. Short of looking through each bug on the README, I don't think there is a sensible way to list the differences.

Difference between Oracle Enetrprise Manager 10.1.2. and 10.1.3

We have J2EE application deployed on Oracle Application Server 10.1.2.
For setting up and deploying application we use Enterprise manager.
We are intending to upgrade onto version 10.1.3. At the beginning we
tried new Enterprise manager. We are unpleasantly surprised how different
new version is.
For start, we need to solve two things:
1. In defined datasource we had oracle Property
NLS_SORT - Czech for making database sort the right way. If we tried to put this property
in new Enterprise manager (Under Data Source, Properties), this is called:
An error has occurred.
"No such property: NLS_SORT, existing writable properties are: [TNSEntryName, URL, connectionCacheName..."
Where to put it now ? Can it be done at all?
2. How to define java parameters ?
In old version, there were Server Properties, Command Line Options, Java Options
In new version we couldn't find any gui interface to define this. We googled, that ompn.xml
must be modified. Strange way to improve...
And finally we tried latest OAS installation available, the http:\\localhost\em address was not working at all.
Are we doing something wrong ? Thanks.

1. In defined datasource we had oracle Property

Comparison between Oracle Forms and HTML DB

Something that has always puzzled me...
What is the difference between Oracle Forms 10g and HTML DB from a functionality perspective?
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/index.html
The underlying architecture, technology used, etc might be different, but from the user's point of view, dont they both do pretty much the same thing?
Why did Oracle take the time & effort to invest in building HTML DB from the ground up (with its mod_plsql, webdb, etc earlier pedigree) instead of just investing in Oracle Forms which has a well-established history, customer base?
Thanks

This is purely a layman's perspective, but after using Developer Forms 10g intensively for about 9 months, and now just recently getting into HTML DB, my opinion is this:
HTML DB is really really great for 'quick and dirty' forms and reports deployment when there's not a lot of validation to be done. Not to say you can't do any kind of validation, I just personally don't find it intuitively easy to implement after using Developer forms so much. So far doing the layout has been hard for me, as I'm used to the 'drag and drop' aspect of Oracle Forms, but once you have your layout set, it pretty much takes care of resizing itself when your application is viewed on various screen sizes and resolutions.
Developer forms has been, for me, way easier to use to accomplish all the validations I need using PL/SQL (you can use java, too, but I haven't learned enough java yet to do that). However, it's more demanding to deploy. You have your application server to maintain, you have to copy over your forms modules, your menu modules, your library modules, make sure everything is compiled properly so your form doesn't crash when someone navigates from one field to another, etc. Also, from a dynamic layout perspective, it's a little harder to design for various screen sizes, resolutions, etc. The html in HTML DB takes care of that for you.
So basically I'm finding that each technology fills a certain niche better than the other. The fun is in trying which technology fits with which niche.

Difference between Oracle Portal & Oracle Forms

What is the difference between Oracle Portal & Oracle Forms and when would use
them?
Thanks

Hi,
Oracle Portal is like a Website that acts as a "doorway" to the Internet or a portion of the Internet, targeted towards one particular subject. Oracle Portal is very popular among developers & architects who wish to aggregate content from multiple souces and present them to the users on a single WebSite.
Oracle Forms is a long-established technology to design and build enterprise applications quickly and efficiently. You can develop your enterprise applications in Oracle Forms easily, by using it's out-of-the box "drap & drop" features and enriched programming features.
Forms is used to develop enterprise applications - Portal is used as a "doorway" to many such enterprise applications. It's a crude way of answering your question " when to use Forms / Portal ? ", but I guess it would give you an idea.......
Good Luck !

Sandeep

Differences between Oracle Developer an ORacle JDeveloper

- Oracle SQLDeveloper
- Oracle Developer Suite
2) Assuming Oracle Developer Suite:
- Oracle Dev Suite is used to create Oracle Forms, Oracle Reports, Oracle Discoverer worksheets, and Entity Relationship Diagrams
- Oracle JDeveloper is used to create any kind of Java object (including Java 2 & 3 tier forms) and ALL objects that support those Java objects (XML, UML, database, SOAP, etc) BUT NOT the stuff in Dev Suite.
Both are very powerful. Expect to take at least 15 minutes* to learn either.

Difference between Oracle developer suite 9i and 6i

Hi -
Can I know what's the release difference between oracle developer suite 9i and 6i , and what's new in oracle discoverer 9i in compare with last version , we have discoverer version of 4.1...
I could not able to get from metalink anything like new features in 9i deve;oper suite.
Existing oracle financial application 11.5.8 have their forms and reports in 6i version.
What impact will have if changed with new version of application 11.5.10 in future .

Oracle Developer Suite 9i is now called Oracle 9iDS. Oracle also sells Oracle 9iAS. You need to license iAS in order to run application created using iDS.
9i is fully J2EE compliant. It offers improved integration between components. Its much more feature rich than 6i. See:
http://www.oracle.com/ip/develop/ids/
for more information.
what's new in oracle discoverer 9i in compare with last versionThis question is best asked in Discoverer Forum.
What impact will have if changed with new version of application 11.5.10 in future Reports offers backward compatibility between 6i and 9i reports with a few exceptions. See Oracle Reports Obsolescence plan on OTN:

Difference between Oracle Testing Center and Prometric?

what is the Difference between Oracle Testing Center and Prometric?

Notes for an Oracle Testing Center are here:
[http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=51&p_org_id=1001&lang=US#4]
The cancellation policies are possibly harder than a Standard Testing Center Vendor.
I would suggest that Oracle Testing Centers possilbly offer exams more on an event or batch basis; (Oracle Openworld is an example; though thats not what one would think of as an Oracle Test Center).
In general I suspect most people will find it just as easy to take the exam through a prometric(or new testing vendor) center. and there will often typically be more slots available. And the testing center will be typically be examing for other testing suppliers, perhaps mosting microsoft and cisco, but there's a mryiad of others out there as well. So the'll probably be well set up for it.
Here in the UK (south) we have a fairly (very) dense population. I've used 4 centers myself:
One 5 miles from me, a college, thats dual Pearson VUE/Prometric; though there only offering Pearson VUE at present until they moved to a bigger suite, with 4 stations. Nice and friendly. 5 days week.
One 25 miles from me, a training center, that offer dual Pearson VUE/Prometric; 4/8 stations; very friendly, cup of coffe offered; I usually go by Puff Puff to this one.
One 10 miles from me, maybe a 12 workstation suite, they offer usually prometric (but not oracle) on one a week. Felt Conveyor like compared to other two above; but very friendly and efficient.
One 35 miles from me, Prometric only including oracle only, maybe a 12 workstation suite, CRT's, and not necessarily of the best quality. This one really felt conveyor like to me, though staff were friendly. This is effectively a drive for me. Also whereas the others I've usd sit one down to sign the forms in a room this one was done at building reception.
The city center ones can sometimes be a little noisy and earplugs are recommended, though the one city center one I've used has provided them others don't have to.
In general from once I used a particular center I feel more comfortable; I'll know exactly where it is; where I have have a quick cup of coffee (with sugar) beforehand going over notes. This all helps me to be a little less anxious before the exam. When I get that prepartion wrong, and I certainly did once, if probably cost me maybe 2/3/4 %.
Getting to know your local test center and routine is one reason why I encourage people to take 1z0-007 and 1z0-051 proctored so they know the procedure and get to know a local Promteric etc Test Center before taking a more advanced and expensive exam.
Rgds -bigdelboy.
PS: I expect comments from some people who live 100 (+) miles from a test center and have no alternative choice. And those in some places will probably say they feel they are treated like cattle by the test center.

Questions on the comparison between Oracle Forms and Oracle APEX

Hi All,
The link below presents information about Oracle Application Express for Oracle Forms Developers, the table at the end of the page shows a comparison between Oracle Forms and Oracle APEX, all the points of comparisons are clear for me except 3 points which are:
•Locking, what is meant by locking models?
•Database Connections, what is meant by Synchronous/Asynchronous connections in Oracle Forms and Oracle Apex?
•Architecture, what is meant by 2tier and 3 tier connections?
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/apex_for_forms.html
What I need is a simple explanation for these points without deep details.
Thanks

Hi
That is how I understand that document:
Locking: Forms, by default, locks a row as soon as the user starts modifying the data. That is pessimistic locking. Apex, on other hand (and optionally forms also) do not lock the record, but before applying any changes checks if the data has changed since the user queried it (what for some reason is called optimistic "locking")
DB connections: I am not sure why they used the terms synchronous/asynchronous, but the difference is that Forms, by default, keeps an permanent DB connection while the user is using the application, while Apex gets a connection from a connection pool every time a page is requested/submitted.
Architecture: Forms (in its web version at least) has 3 tiers: the browser, the appserver where the forms service runs and the database. As Apex runs inside the database, there are only 2 tiers: the browser and the database (though you still may need an http server in between which serves static content, I don't think it is considered part of the application in this context). If you are talking about client/server forms, then there are only 2 tiers.
I hope this helps!

Hi all,

When and why should we use Oracle?I suggest that you start here:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/nosqldb/overview/index.html
Is Oracle NoSQL database link with Big Data Appliance?Yes, Oracle NoSQL Database will be a component of the Big Data Appliance.
Can we use map-reduce on a single personal computer? How should we install Oracle NoSQL database to use map reduce on a single personal computer?Yes, I believe you can run M/R on a single computer. Consult the various pieces of documentation available on the web. You may run Oracle NoSQL Database on the same computer that you are running M/R on, but it is likely that they will compete for CPU and IO resources and therefore performance may suffer.
Do we also have eventual consistency with Oracle NoSQL database? Yes.
Can we lose data if master node fails?If you run Oracle NoSQL Database with the default (recommended) durability settings, then if the master fails, a new one will be elected and data is not lost.
Are transactions ACID with Oracle NoSQL database? How can we prove it?Yes, each operation is executed in an ACID transaction. The API has the concept of "multi" operations which allow the caller to perform multiple operations on sets of records with the same major key, but different minor keys. Those operations are also performed within a transaction.
