Displaying a dialog box.

I have to display a dialog box by using ADF faces. I am able to create a pop up, but need a dialog box in its place. Does anyone know how to accomplish this?
thanks.
Minaz.

Hi Minaz!
The Dialog Framework creates a popup window. In that window you can add 'normal' jsf pages (with or without workflow). The advantage is, that you have direct access to the values that you have put into tze dialog form. See that article: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/101/howtos/adfdialog/index.html

Displaying Where Dialog Box in Forms 10g at runtime

hi all,
In Forms 6i, I was able to display the Where Dialog box to define complex search conditions by entering <b>:variable_name</b> in a field.
How can I do the same in Oracle 10g Forms at runtime?
thanks in advance.

Have you had a look at metalink note 370302.1?
Symptoms Query/Where dialog does not come up when execute query on block entering '&' or ':' in a field.
ChangesUpgrade to Forms 10.1.2.0.2 Cause In order to be more secure out of the box, a new parameter was introduced
FORMS_RESTRICT_ENTER_QUERY to TRUE in default.env and this results in the query/where dialog not appearing.
SolutionTo implement the solution, please execute the following steps:
1. Edit $ORACLE_HOME/forms/server/default.env
2. Comment the line as :

Graphics display problems (dialog boxes) Lenovo G50 AMD A6 Win 8.1

Graphics display problems Lenovo G50 AMD A6 Win 8.1 Greetings to all. After having spent a number of days trying to find a solution to a display problem, I turn to this forum for help. I own a Lenovo G50 AMD A6 Win 8.1 ever since November 2014, and have had display problems ever since the first day, be it while using internet (Firefox or Explorer) or various software (Text editors, etc.). Many dialog boxes, including colour settings and controls (open, close etc.) either have an inappropriate appearance or even do not appear at all! I manage to "click" on the right places using memory: most areas are INVISIBLE! Another example would be that I do not see any backround colour or image on most webpages such as this one).  Some suggestions included checking for graphics updates (but the drivers used were already up-to-date).  I 'd be most obliged for any new suggestions. Thank you very much. George

Greetings to all, I finally decided to express my utmost discontent with- the Lenovo G50-45 I bought before Christmas 2014,- the summary response with inappropriate links that I received after exposing my problem- the fact that I tried to dowload the following graphics driver  (Beema) AMD Driver (VGA, HDAudio, SATA) for Windows 8.1 (64-bit)

I find it quite disrespectful to NOT provide customers with EASY support, as well as avoiding to answer their requests for further help when some simplistic "assistance" that one can find almost anywhere on the web leads to no further solution. I shall not repeat the problems I have faced till now: vide supra. The problem, however, is NOT just with browsers.I simply cannot see any dialog box content and colour in MANY software programs, such as OPEN OFFICE; for instance: PRESENTATION colour dialog boxes show BLANK squares instead of squares filled with different colours. This has occured AVER SINCE DAY ONE! Finally, a new bug has appeared: Windows 8.1 keeps popping up some email program to which I am invited to register - I never created a Windows email account, and certainly don't intend to do so.NOR shall I accept some "Lenovo Service Bridge", however "discreet and inoffensive" it might be. I don't know if there are any legal grounds for customers to complain for all these problems. I DO know, however, that I shall NEVER buy a LENOVO device ever again. The pricing and processor might be competitive => yet, the support that ensues is, as far as I'm concerned, LAMENTABLE. To make a presentation, I have to switch to a Samsung R20 using XP..... What is the meaning of all this? George

Problem displaying my dialog box

Hi everyone.
I have a very annoying problem. I have a GUI frame that my application runs in. It implements a WindowListener interface and I override the windowClosing() method so when the window is closed I perform some memory clean up procedures.
So I want to have a dialog box pop up when the window is closing which displays some information about what's going on while my closing procedures are being executed.
The problem is that the dialog box appears, which I do by:
shutdownDialog.setVisible(true);but it has nothing in it. No components at all. Now I used Netbeans to make the dialog box so I know they should be there.
I even put the shutdownDialog.setVisible(true) into another part of my program and when the box pops up it has all the components like it should.
Is there a reason why components of the dialog box don't show up when it's called from the windowClosing() method?
Is there any other way I could accomplish that?

If the components don't appear possible causes could be: they haven't been added to the dialog, they haven't been laid out within the dialog, they aren't being painted.
Now I used Netbeans to make the dialog box so I know they should be there.It isn't my intention to stand between someone and their belief systems. But neither can I stand aside silent when I know that skepticism is more effective in tracking down bugs: abandon "they should be there" in favour of "they are not there" and try and figure out why.
I don't know Netbeans, but the following is effective:
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.event.WindowAdapter;
import java.awt.event.WindowEvent;
import java.awt.event.WindowListener;
import javax.swing.JDialog;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.SwingUtilities;
public class CloseEg {
    private JFrame gui;
    public CloseEg() {
        gui = new JFrame("Close example");
        gui.setSize(new Dimension(300, 300));
        gui.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE);
        gui.addWindowListener(appCloser);
        shutdownDialog = new JDialog((JFrame)null);
        shutdownDialog.setUndecorated(true);
        shutdownDialog.add(new JLabel("Close down initiated. Please be patient"));
        shutdownDialog.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
        shutdownDialog.pack();
        gui.setVisible(true);
    private WindowListener appCloser = new WindowAdapter() {
        public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
            shutdownDialog.setVisible(true);
            Thread closerThread = new Thread(new Runnable() {
                public void run() {
                    doCloseDown();
            closerThread.start();
    private JDialog shutdownDialog;
    private void doCloseDown() {
        try {
            Thread.sleep(5000);
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        System.exit(0);
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                new CloseEg();
}If I don't pack() the dialog, I don't see it at all. If I try and do the closedown on the EDT - ie don't create a new thread for it - then the sleep() (or other lengthy operation) stops the dialog's components from being drawn.
You will get better help more quickly in the [Swing forum|http://forums.sun.com/forum.jspa?forumID=57]. Although having started here, you might as well continue.
If nothing suggested by my code helps, you might like to post an example that can be compiled to illustrate the problem. (But teh Netbeans is a jealous god and sometimes makes that difficult;)

How to display a dialog box?

I finally have my application accepting data through a form and posting to a MySQL database.
Now, when a record has been successfully posted to the database I would like a dialog box to appear saying "Data saved in database...click OK to continue" and the user clicks on the OK button and goes back to the front back of the application.
How can I make a dialog box appear, or what are the alternatives (if this is not possible).
Thanks,
Peter

Typically you would name each object in your user interface (the name is not necessarily the same as the visible text in the button, but it might be).
Then the name of the button is passed into the on clicked handler where you can deal with it how you like:
on clicked theObject
  if name of theObject = "button1name" then
    -- code to display your dialog
  else if name of theObject = "button2name"
    -- user clicked a different button, so that code goes here
  end if
end clicked
You can extend this to run any actions based on the object that was clicked.

Displaying my dialog box????

Hi am try to display a dialogue box after a user has entered a value between 1-9 in a text field and has hit enter. The purpose of this dialogue box is merely a flag so that i know it is going into my statement. Code
textField = new TextField(20); // public declaration
textField.addKeyListener(new KeyCatcher() );
m_nShapesToDraw = 0;
public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent evt)
if ( evt.getItemSelectable() == m_oval ) {
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(this, "U selected the oval radio button.");
m_bSelectOval = true;
public class KeyCatcher extends KeyAdapter
public void keyPressed(KeyEvent evt){
int temp = evt.getKeyCode();
if(m_nShapesToDraw == 0)
if(m_bSelectOval || m_bSelectSquare || m_bSelectTriangle)
if(( temp >= KeyEvent . VK_0 ) && ( temp <= KeyEvent . VK_9 ) && (temp == KeyEvent . VK_ENTER) )
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(this, "u hit enter.");
When i run the above code i get the error message
cannot find symbol showMessageDialoge(MainWindow.KeyCatcher,java.lang.String)
The problem i am having is that when i try to insert the dialogu message code in my keyCatcher code i get that error. However, that code is the same exact code from the itemStatechanged method wich works. So my question is, y do i get this error even though it is taken from my itemstatched method and what must do to be able to display my message?? Thank

Why are you using a JOptionPane it is a Swing component?
All your other questions are relating to AWT components.
Don't mix Swing and AWT components in the same application.
If you need further help then you need to create a [url http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html]Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program (SSCCE) that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour, because I can't guess exactly what you are doing based on the information provided.
And don't forget to use the [url http://forum.java.sun.com/help.jspa?sec=formatting]Code Formatting Tags so the code retains its original formatting.

Can we display GUI windows/dialog boxes from two asynchronus threads?

Hi All,
I'm facing a problem with asynchronous threads. I've a client-server application where client is a Java application and server is a C++ application running on UNIX m/c. The C++ server is implemented equivalent to a HTTP server which handles the HTTP requests from the java client. So, whenever user select some action on the Java client, say "File/Open" menu, the client sends the equivalent HTTP request to the server, and waits for the response back from the server, and after getting the response displays it on the GUI.
So far the java client application is single-threaded, and the communication between client-server was only one-way, i.e. all the communication was always initiated by the client.
We had to change this behavior to make it multi-threaded, or rather two-way communication where kernel while processing any client request might need some response from the GUI. So, we had to create a ServerSocket on java client side, and C++ server is connected to this socket. So, whenever C++ server has to send some message to the GUI, it can send thru this other socket.
On the java side, it's listening at this ServerSocket port in a separate thread, whenever it receives any request, it has to display a dialog box based on the request.
Here is my problem coming. The main application thread (which is an AWT-EVENT- thread) has made a http request to the kernel and is blocked until it gets the response back, and in the mean time, the C++ server has sent a message to the GUI thru the other socket, and when I use JOptionPane.showOptionDialog(...), I see the dialog box outline but not the contents, and the same for my main application window.
So main question here is, can I invoke, say,
JOptionPane.showOptionDialog(...) on another thread, when the main application thread (rather AWT-EVENT -QUEUE thread) is blocked.
Please let me know if anyone knows the answer or if has faced the similar problem. It will be a big help.
thanks,
Ajay

You mean to make the HTTP request in a separate thread, like below,
new Thread ( new Runnable() {
public void run() {
server.makeHTTPRequest(...);
}).start();
But we cannot do this, as there is one more constraint with our application, that it has to behave like single-threaded from user's perspective. i.e. If user has clicked "File/Open" menu, user has to wait until the "File/Open" action is completed. He cannot do anything in between.
But if the server sends some message thru the other socket, then it has to displayed, and whatever user select on that dialog box, has to be sent to the server thry the same socket.
I'm not sure whether this possible.
Here is what I tried to make the http request in a separate thread, and at the same time, keeping the main thread in a wait state until the thread completes:
new Thread (new Runnable() {
public void run() {
synchronized(server) {
server.makeHTTPRequest(...);
server.notify();
}).start();
synchronized(server) {
server.wait();
Even by doing the above it doesn't work, the GUI just hangs. I think the above code is effectively the same as,invoking directly,
server.makeHTTPRequest(...);
All I know is it's quite confusing. Does anyone has insight into it.
thanks,
Ajay

AppleScript Newbie - Display dialog box when quitting an application

Hello.
I was wondering if it's possible to write a script that displays a dialog box (in this case one saying "BACK UP!!!!") everytime i quit Final Draft.
Thanks.
F.

A regular AppleScript does not have the ability to get system notifications, so you would have to do something like have the script continually check (poll) for applications that are running. A Cocoa-AppleScript does have the ability to do Cocoa-y stuff such as register for system notifications, so you can create a new applet (AppleScript Editor > File > New from Template > Cocoa-AppleScript Applet), paste in the following, and save it as an application (uncheck the option to show the startup screen):
property theApps : {"Final Draft"} -- a list of applications to watch for
on run -- example
# add observers for workspace notifications
tell current application's NSWorkspace's sharedWorkspace's notificationCenter
    addObserver_selector_name_object_(me, "appQuit:", current application's NSWorkspaceDidTerminateApplicationNotification, missing value)
end tell
-- tell application "Final Draft" to activate
end run
on appQuit_(aNotification) -- an application quit
# aNotification's userInfo record contains an NSRunningApplication instance that we can get properties from
set theApplication to (aNotification's userInfo's NSWorkspaceApplicationKey's localizedName()) as text
if theApplication is in theApps then
tell current application -- me
    beep 3
    activate -- make sure dialog comes to front
    display dialog "BACK UP!!!!" with title "Final Draft quit notice" buttons {"OK"} default button 1
    quit
end tell
end if
end appQuit_
When the application is run it will sit there and receive notifications when other applications quit, and checks to see if it was the application you want.

Labview pauses when dialog box displayed

When I display a dialog box in LabView, the program waits for the user to click ok. I would like for the program to not wait but keep running after it displays the box. How can I do this and how can I customize the dialog box?

You drop an Invoke Node from the Application palette onto the block diagram, wire up a reference to the subVI, right click the invoke node and select the method. There's an example here that shows how an invoke node is used to make a front panel visible. There are other examples on the developer zone and several have been posted to this forum. You question seems to pop up once week or so and a little searching of the forum will give you a lot of examples.

How can I disable "download error" dialog box when saving a complete web page?

Sometimes, when I try to save a web page as type: "Web Page, complete", firefox displays download error dialog box stating a file "could not be saved, because the source file could not be read."
I don't have a problem with firefox couldn't save that file, but I have a problem with firefox displaying that dialog box, because I have to click OK everytime.
Is there a way to disable that annoying dialog box?

I modified the host file mainly to block ads. But that's not the problem. It's OK for me for firefox to not saving some parts of a page (ads usually within a frame). It's my intention to NOT saving those files. I just want to save the main content of a webpage.
But I'm having a problem with firefox displaying the dialog boxes.

Download Dialog Box in Page Process

I know this has been beat to death, but I just can't get it working. I am using Apex 3.0 on iAS 10g on Unix
I have a report that displays locations and map coordinates and a check box for each line.
The user checks the lines they want to "Map" and then presses an image button that is within the region items.
When the button is pressed, this kicks off a Page Process. I do not want put an upload dialog box. I want to write data to a file, then display a dialog box, so the user can save the file wherever they want. The code writes out to the file just fine.
The Page Process looks like:
Declare
v_kml_file Utl_File.File_Type;
v_dir VarChar2(1000) := 'KML';
v_name VarChar2(100);
Begin
v_kml_file := Utl_File.FOpen(v_dir,'sample.kml','W');
Utl_File.Put_Line(v_kml_file,'<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>');
Utl_File.Put_Line(v_kml_file,'<kml xmlns="http://earth.goodle.com/kml/2.1">');
more Utl_File.Put_lines here
-- write out the checked lines
For i In 1..htmldb_application.g_f15.count Loop
Utl_File.Put_Line(v_kml_file,'htmldb_application.g_f15(i));
End Loop;
more Utl_File.Put_Lines here
owa_util.mime_header('application/octet');
htp.p('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="sample.kml"');
owa_util.http_header_close;
wpg_docload.download_file(v_dir||'sample.kml');
End;
When this executes I get The page cannot be found. The url is then http://www.my.website/pls/htmldb/wwv_flow.accept
I have tried hard-coding the path, using the relative path (the directory is located under htdocs), etc. I've tried using javascript as in examples on this forum. We upload and download documents using packages we have built, but I can't see how to use them for this.
Any help is appreciated,
Becky

John,
Yes, I looked at that previously. When I implement it, I receive the error ORA-01460: Unimplemented or unreasonable conversion requested. Essentially, the code looks like this:
Declare
v_dir2 VarChar2(200) := '/vol/my/directory/htdocs/MYDIR/'; -- tried w/wout the last slash
x_bfile BFILE;
n_size Number := 2000;
x_buffer raw (2000);
n_pos Number := 1;
Begin
x_bfile := BFILENAME(v_dir2,'sample.kml');
--write stuff out to file
Begin
Loop
dbms_lob.read(x_bfile, n_size, n_pos, x_buffer);
wpg_docload.download_file(utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2(x_buffer));
n_pos := n_pos + n_size;
End Loop;
End;
dbms_lob.fileclose(x_bfile);
End;
