Do Oracle Forms give any performance uplift on Weblogic compared to OC4J?

Hi ,
Forms can now run on WebLogic JVM instead of Application Server’s OC4J.
1. Is there any presentation/document on this?
2. does it give any performance uplift compared to OC4J?
Regards,
Noman

The details of the changes and how WLS is set up to use Forms is available as part of the 11g documentaion available from otn.oracle.com/products/forms
Regarding perfomance, we've not done any specific testing and to be honest I wouldn't be expecting any great changes since Forms is only uses WLS as a small element in the complete Forms lifecycle (since Forms is running as a C process so not in a Java container).
Performance issues/improvements are more likely to be found in some well known tips of tuning the applications.

(268625273) Q WSI-29 Can you give any performance benchmarks for WLS web services?

Q<WSI-29> Can you give any performance benchmarks for WLS web services?
A<WSI-29>: It is very difficult to quantify performance aspects of web services
since they depend on so many variables including but not limited to: backend system
processing by stateless session beans and message driven beans, size of XML SOAP
message sent, system hardware (CPU speed, parallel processing, RAM speed) and
system software (JVM type and version of WebLogic server). However, let me point
out that the EJB backend processing of requests both have the best possible scalability
within the EJB2.0 specification (both stateless session and message driven beans
can be pooled) and servlets have a proven scalable track record. Thus it should
be possible to scale your web service deployment to meet demand. The overhead
in processing XML within the servlet can be significant depending on the size
of XML data (either as a parameter or a return type). While WLS6.1 does not have
any features to address this performance concern, WLS7.0 will feature Serializer
and Deserializer classes which can be dedicated to the XML to Java and Java to
XML translation (they can also be automatically be generated from a DTD, XML Schema
or regular JavaBean).
It is true that web services are not the fastest way to process client requests
but BEA is committed to making WebLogic server the fastest possible service provider.

Oracle Forms & Reports 11.1.2 with WebLogic 10.3.5 - Creating Domain 0%

I would be grateful if someone could point out where I'm going wrong here......
I am attempting to install Forms and Reports 11g (11.1.2.0.0) 64-bit edition on a Windows 2008 Server (R2 x64).
Step 1: download and install jdk-7u3-windows-x64.exe
Step 2: ensure JAVA_HOME and Path include definitions to C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_03
Step 3: download and install wls1035_generic.jar by typing java -Xmx1024m -jar wls1035_generic.jar - de-select Run Quickstart
Step 4: download ofm_frmrpts_win_11.1.2.0.0_64
Step 5: run setup and select "install and configure"
Step 6: leave all installation locations as default
Step 7: select "Configure for Deployment"
Step 8: select "Create Domain" and enter passwords
Step 9: select "Oracle Forms Builder" in additon to items already selected
Step 10: Auto Port config, no proxy, no OID
Installation Progress = 100%
Configuration Progress = 0%
Stuck on "Creating Domain"
If I open the Sysinternals TCPView tool I can see that the javaw.exe (The Forms and Reports Installer application) is attempting to connect to port 7001 on the server but then closes the connection. This repeats over and over again until the installer gives up with an error message.
I have made sure that the PATH variable doesn't contain any ( characters as I know this has been an issue that was raised in other threads.
Any ideas?

If anyone is interested I found the fault with this installation.
The installation works fine if I repeat all of the steps above apart from the following changes: -
Step 1: download and install jdk-6u26-windows-x64.exe instead of 7u3
Step 2: this step is not required
I hope this helps anyone else who is attempting this.

Is there any problem while changing WEBLOGIC server to OC4J

Hi,
We have developing a product in Jedeveloper 11g. In the development mode, we are using WEBLOGIC 10.3 as the application server. But during production mode, we have to apply the EAR files in oc4J APPLICATION SERVER.
While changing this, whether my system will work as such in the WEBLOGIC server?
Whether I loss any Rich Ajax specific fuctionalities? Is any rework in development is needed?
While Googling, I found, in JDeveloper 11g oracle prefers WEBLOGIC rather than OC4j. Can anyone advise the reason for this.
Thanks,
Prabhash.

Hi John,
Thanks for your valuable advise.
Can you advise is there any difference between OC4j and Oracle Application Server (OAS) . Is the Oracle App Server supports JSF 1.2 specification. While googling, the following link states that JDeveloper 11g supports OAS
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/htdocs/11/as_supportmatrix.html#11g
Thanks much

Insert / Update from Oracle Forms -- URGENT Please thanks

Hello All,
I need to create form which can be use for two purposes. i.e insert and update
I have one table called emp which has 50 columns.
Only four columns has not null constraint.
I need to insert values in only these columns.
From SQLPLUS it can be cone as below:
insert ito emp values ('333','2222','007','AA','01-JAN-2007','','','','','','','','','',........);
After that I need to update one of the coulmn with the value as
update emp
set zipcode = 'Y'
where empt# = 007;
How could I achive this from Oracle form.
Any help will be appricated.
D

Why handle updates in the On-Update trigger? Oracle Forms already handles this for you. You update a data value in a field and click on the SAVE button (assuming you have a Save button) and the Oracle Forms handles the Update. The On-Update trigger is provided so you can perform processing in addition to the default UPDATE.

Java swing/visual components in an Oracle Form

Hello,
Has someone used visual javabeans embedded in Oracle Forms ?
is there a special api or componente to use?
I want to embed a jclass javabean in an Oracle Form (oracle forms client)
any help will be welcome, thanks

There are examples of white papers on OTN which show how you can integrate Java Beans into the Forms UI.
You may have some success with Swing but forms is based on AWT/EWT of which there was only and old (and not
very good) Swing version.
As I said - check out the white papers and you can try the demos which are on the Sample Code page.

Oracle Forms equivalent operations in Oracle ADF

I need to know whether there are equivalent operations in ADF corresponding to these operations in Oracle Forms
System.Current_block
System.Current_record
System.Current_form
etc...

As a mechanism to working out how ADF works, a suggested read is the Fusion Dev Guide: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E16162_01/web.1112/e16182/toc.htm
Once you've done this, as extension the dev guide has appendixes "F - ADF Equivalents of Common Oracle Forms Triggers" & "G Performing Common Oracle Forms Tasks in Oracle ADF" for assisting Forms programmers in moving to ADF, a feature/mind map as you will.
However as Vinod says, don't make the mistake of thinking ADF is similar to Forms in its implementation. While Forms and ADF attempt to achieve similar results (ie. applications querying data from a db and showing to the user to view or edit), they do it in totally different technologies.

Oracle Forms 9i 1Z0-141 Exam Preparation

Hi,
I've cleared OCA developer 3 months back.
I m currently working on PL/SQL and Oracle Forms. Now i want to go for Forms Developer 1Z0-141 Certification Exam.
I m new to Oracle forms.Can any one suggest me up to what level i need to prepare for the exam.
I m very confused about the preparation for Oracle Forms .
Because for sql and pl/sql i was working on that technology so preparation was not a big issue
But i m new to forms so i need help.
Thanks in Advance

The following book is for 1z0-131/1z0-132 but is still probablly useful. However it is difficult and expensive to get hold of and any second hand editions may be without the cdrom:
Oracle Certified Professional: Building Internet Applications I & II Exam Guide: ISBN: 9780072193336
I believe the current oracle recommended training course is :
Oracle Forms Developer 10g: Build Internet Applications
I had a quick glance and could not seem to see a self study kit for this course.
Checking out the examination objectives is of course useful, and the contents of the recommended training course is also worth a look.
Hope this helps.

Is Oracle Form can read bar code scanner ?

Hi everybody,
I would like to develop an application for a video club with oracle form. Can anyone tell me how can do or just say if it is possible or not
Thanks a lot.
Shafique Mahmood

I would like to develop an application with
Oracle form can any one can just tell me
is it possible or not? Depending what bar code scanner you use. If it has a Java
interface, you can develop a PJC (Pluggable Java Component) for
Forms, or even a Java Bean and use a JavaBean area item.
If it has a COM interface, you can use the JavaBean/COM bridges
probably get the same result.
For PJC and JavaBeans, have a look in the Forms 6i/9i docs for
more info.
Hope that helps

Migrating VB Applications on SQL Server to Oracle Forms on Oracle 10g RAC

Hello All,
I am looking at migrating a VB application built on a SQL Server database across to an Oracle Forms deployment with the data migrated to an Oracle 10g RAC database environment.
My first question is whether the SQL Developer Migration Workbench can migrate the SQL Server data to a RAC environment?
The second question is to ask whether there are any "toolkits" or tips from the community migrating VB applications to Oracle Forms.
Any advise or suggestions greatly accepted.
Kind Regards,
Gary.

SQL Developer Migration Workbench definitely can migrate SQL Server data to Oracle RAC setup.
However, I don't think VB application can be easily converted to Oracle Forms.
You can post your question in Oracle Form forum to double check.

Display blob file with oracle forms

I need to display an image file with oracle forms.
can any body tell me how to do this ?
Thanks

How to do this is dependent on which version of Oracle Forms you are using. Please let us know what version (eg; 10.1.3.x.x not 10g) of Oracle Forms you are using and how your application is deployed (Client/Server or web). If web, what is your Java version?

How to open an internet browser inside an Oracle Form?

Hello,
I am using Oracle forms 10g and I want to open any internet browser inside my oracle form. Any idea if it is even do able in the forms.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Hemangi

Are you talking about displaying a webpage directly inside of an Oracle Form or simply opening a webpage (in a browser window) form a Form?
If you want embed a webpage in a Form, then this can only be done by extending Forms functionality througha Java Bean. Take a look at this Java Bean: A Full Web Browser Java Bean .
If you just want to open a web page from Forms the MST is correct.

FANHow would you like your document to be attached??? What is the nature of your Document??
If it's the records of another form like an invoice already typed in in your application, you can simply add a field that holds the ID/Number/Reference of your document, and have a button that drills down the data for you.
If it's a scanned document you can use an image item, and display the document in an that item in your forms.
Tony
Alternative for images you can use BLOBs and other types of systemfiles
