Dynamic EntityDefImpl
Is there any way to create EntityDefImpl objects dynamically at runtime besides manually writing an xml file containing the entity definition information into the classpath and then using EntityDefImpl.findDefObject() to load it?
Can I create an EO defintion as an in-memory xml document and then use EntityDefImpl.loadCustomDef() to assign that definition to a new EntityDefImpl object?
Or is EntityDefImpl.loadXMLContents() what I need?
Or is there some other recommended way to do this?
It should be possible to do programmatically without creating XML files since the XML-file-loading is just automating the calls to appropriate EntityDefImpl API's to setup the in-memory definitions.
I have an example on my blog (#111):
http://radio.weblogs.com/0118231/stories/2004/09/23/notYetDocumentedAdfSampleApplications.html#111
That illustrates the same basic idea but with a programmatically created ViewDefImpl.
I unfortunately don't have a ready-to-use example for the entity case.
In 11g, we have new "Design time at runtime" features that make this simpler, but (also) unfortunately the documentation on that advanced feature is thin and a lower priority for production than all of the features that most developers will use everyday.
That said, if you have code that's working for you in 9.0.x, it should continue to work in 10.1.3 and 11g, so that might be the absolute simplest approach for you.

Issues in persisting dynamic entity and view objects using MDS
Hi All,
I'm trying to create dynamic entity and view objects per user session and to persist these objects throughout the session, I'm trying to use MDS configurations(either file or Database) in adf-config.xml.
I'm facing following two errors while trying to run the app module:
1. MDS error (MetadataNotFoundException): MDS-00013: no metadata found for metadata object "/model/DynamicEntityGenModuleOperations.xml"
2. oracle.mds.exception.ReadOnlyStoreException: MDS-01273: The operation on the resource /sessiondef/dynamic/DynamicDeptEntityDef.xml failed because source metadata store mapped to the namespace / DEFAULT is read only.
I've gone through the following links which talks about the cause of the issue, but still can't figure out the issue in the code or the config file. Please help if, someone has faced a similar issue.

I m trying to save entity and view object xml by calling writeXMLContents() and saveXMLContents() so that these objects can be retrieved using the xmls later on.
These methods internally use MDS configuration in adf-config.xml, which is creating the issue.
Please share your thoughts on resolving this or if, there is any other way of creating dynamic entity/view objects for db tables created at runtime.

Two EO questions (dynamic attrs and validation)
Hello all (I really hope Steve M gets to see this),
I am re-visiting an old project (fantasy) of mine to implement spell checking of certain fields in an Entity Object, The concept is that I will implement the spell checking in an overriden validateEntity method. The way I would like this to work is for spelling errors to be reported to the user when they try to commit; if the user commits again without making any changes, I will assume they want to ignore the spelling errors and will allow the Entity to commit. In order to implement this in a really cooI and generic way, Ineed to be able to do a couple of things that have really stumped me.
The first is in relation to entity validation. The doc states that any EO is assumed to be valid after it is read from the database. Is there any way that I can alter this behaviour so that the EO needs to be re-validated even if it has just been read from the database? Extra credit if this can be done in such a fashion as to not cause the EO's data to be re-posted to the database if the user doesn't make any changes. I have tried over-riding lots of things in the EntityImpl and EntityDefImpl, but I cannot find the right place to do this.
The second thing I would like to do is to add dynamic attributes to an EO instance. The reason I want to do this is so that I can add the spell check code in a generic framework extension class and not have to modify each EO for this behaviour. The attribute I want to add is used to track whether spell checking has already been done on the EO row. I cannot use a java class member variable, as the same instance of the java class is not necessarily used across different web requests - in fact, I have found that the same instance is rarely-to-never re-used in my testing. I can make this work by adding a transient attribute to the EO itself, but this defeats my goal of a generic implementation. I have found some methods in EntityImpl (setDynamicAttributeValue and getDynamicAttributeValue), but they don't appear to do what I want. I've also played around a bit with the EntityDefImpl, but no luck there either.
I do promise to post a blog entry detailing how to do this if this pans out. We have looked at some nice JavaScript-based spell checkers that work well (give suggestions in a pop-up window), but we would like multiple fields on a web page to be spell-checked, and this is difficult to do with those spell-checkers (particularly when you have an af:table with varying number rows).
Any assistance is appreciated,
JohnYour mechanism to manage css style classes is a good approach; I have used that many times. I do wonder why the style classes were implemented as a list, instead of a set, but there may be good use cases for using a list.
In some cases you can also consider using CSS PsuedoClasses, which were introduced in JavaFX 8. These are a bit easier to use, especially if you have only two options. But a use case might look like:
public class Message {
public enum Status { NORMAL, WARNING, CRITICAL }
private final ObjectProperty<Status> status = new SimpleObjectProperty<>(Status.NORMAL);
private final StringProperty message = new SimpleStringProperty();
// constructor, getters, setters, and property accessors....
public Label createLabel(Message message) {
PseudoClass warning = PseudoClass.getPseudoClass("warning");
PseudoClass critical = PseudoClass.getPseudoClass("critical");
Label label = new Label();
label.textProperty().bind(message.messageProperty());
message.statusProperty().addListener((obs, oldStatus, newStatus) -> {
label.pseudoClassStateChanged(warning, newStatus == Message.Status.WARNING);
label.pseudoClassStateChanged(critical, newStatus == Message.Status.CRITICAL);
return label ;
And then your css looks like
.label:warning {
-fx-text-fill: orange ;
.label:critical {
-fx-text-fill: red ; -
Unable to capture data in an editable dynamic ALV.
Hi ,
I have created a dynamic editable ALV whose displayed structure can be changed at runtime based on the selection in a drop down list value selector.
Im trying to capture the values entered in the ALV into an internal table before the user changes the structure of the ALV to a different structure.
In the ON_SELECT event handler of the drop down list box , im rasing a data_check event to capture the ALV data.
The problem is that the control is not entering the event handler for the data_check event.
If i raise the data_check event in my save event handler or any other event handler , it works fine.
Can someone please suggest a solution.
Regards,
Newton.Hi ,
I have figured out that the problem is local to my machine , because the code works fine on other machines.
I guess my internet explorer has some bug.
Regards,
Newton. -
Dynamic mandatory field error message is not getting displayed in webui
Hi,
In Appointment if the importance is HIGH i made Location as mandatory.For this i enhanced BT126H_APPT/ApptDetails. In the get_p_location() method of BTACTIVITYYH i have written the code.
Now the problem is Error message for this dynamic mandatory field is not getting displayed in webui.
I debugged in DO_FINISH_INPUT error message is getting generated but it is not getting displayed in ui.
Can anybody tell where the problem is?
Thanks,
Hari.Hi Hari,
Really sorry do not know how to convert this nug file to text
How ever quick solution for your problem would be just keep your validation in 'DO_VALIDATE_INPUT' method of the view controller.
Means even if the User clicks on SAVE , Since it fails here , it would not allow you to go further.
Thanks,

If table testrh2 has the following columns and data
col1 --> NULL
col2 --> 2
and table testrh has the following columsn and data
col1 --> NULL
How could I write a dynamic SQL statement to join on the nulls? I've written the following block as a starting point.
declare
cursor c1 is select col1 from isis.testrh;
lval varchar2(1000);
lval2 varchar2(1000);
begin
for r1 in c1 loop
lval := 'select col2 from isis.testrh2 where col1 = '||r1.col1;
execute immediate lval into lval2;
dbms_output.put_line(lval2);
end loop;
end;You can't compare null values with '=' in Oracle SQL.
Null can only be compared with <column> is null .
You can see it when you try these two queries:
select * from dual where null is null; -- you will see one row
select * from dual where null=null; -- you will see no rowsThat's why you have to write something like
(<column1>=<column1> or (<column1> is null and <column2> is null))This should also work with null:
decode(<column1>,<column2>,1,0)=1By the way, why do you use dynamic sql?
lval := 'select col2 from isis.testrh2 where col1 = '||r1.col1;
I think you could replace your two lines ( lval:= ... AND execute immediate) by this:
begin
select col2
into lval
from isis.testrh2
where decode(col1,r1.col1,1,0)=1;
dbms_output.put_line('lval='||lval);
exception
when no_data_found then
dbms_output.put_line('no data found'); -- or whatever you want

Dynamic CRM 2013 Online how to execute Report, generate PDF and email
Dear All,
I am using Dynamic CRM 2013 online. For quote, I have workflow and Dialogue processes for review process. On approval, I want the system to generate a PDF of quote report, attach the PDF and email it to the Customer.
Better I would like, When approver, clicks on the approve button, the system should auto generate a PDF of quote report, attach the PDF and email it to the Customer, without any further input from the user. If its not possible, I may have to put button on
quote form.
I am using the attached code, but facing various issues.
1. Under prepare the SOAP Message coding part, I am not sure what should be the below URL for CRM 2013 Online?
xHReq.Open("POST", "/mscrmservices/2007/CrmService.asmx", false);
2. What should be the emailid here? Is it Recepient Contact id(Guid) ?
var emailid = resultXml.selectSingleNode("//CreateResult").nodeTypedValue;
alert("emailid" + emailid.toString());
3. Using this code, not able to create Entity for "ActivityMimeAttachment", I am getting newEntity as undefined.
Below is the code I am using. Please check and help me out, where I am going wrong. Let me know if any better way to implement it. At present, I have put one button on quote form, on click event, below code will get executed.

Dynamically set template for Print Quote report
We need to customize "Print Quote" in Quoting
As part of this we will be having 2 custom templates (will be related to data definition "Quote Printing", ASOPRT).
These two templates have to be defaulted based on the quote status - one for status "Approved", and the other template for other non "Approved" statuses.
How can this be achieved dynamically? (OAF CO customization / personilization)
There doesn't seem to be any setup for assigning different templates based on status.
Profile option "ASO: Default Layout Template" can be utilized to change the default template, but we need this template to be defaulted dynamically based on the Quote status.
Thanks,
Sumanth

How to rename C00n generic column names in a Dynamic SQL report
I have a an interface whereby the user can select 1 to 60 (upper limit) columns out of 90 possible columns (using a shuttle) from one table before running a report.
To construct the SQL that will eventually execute, I'm using a "PLSQL function body returning SQL query" with dynamic SQL. The only problem is that I have to use "Generic Column Names" option to be able to compile the code and end up with c001 to c060 as the column names.
How can I use the names of the selected columns as the report headings rather than c001, C002... etc?
I do not know beforehand which columns, or how many columns or the order of the selected columns.
I know Denes K has a demo called Pick Columns but I can't access his code. I have a hunch though that he may be just using conditions to hide/show the apropriate columns.
thanks in advance
PaulPHi Paul
I would change the Heading Type in the Report Details screen to PLSQL and use the shuttle item to return the column values. e.g.
RETURN :p1_shuttle;
I'm assuming the shuttle already has a colon separated list of the column headings in the correct order?
I hope that helps

Inserting Dynamic Images in to a Crystal Report 10
Hi all,
I am trying to insert dynamic pictures into my report from repository, by getting the path for the picture from database fields. The version that I am using is Crystal Reports 10.
Here is what I have done.
I inserted an OLE object into the report, went to "Format Graphics" by right clicking on the OLE object, then to "Hyperlink" Tab (as I didn't see anything other than "Reset" button and picture dimension options under the "Picture" tab), and selected "File" Radio button (as I didn't want to display the picture as Hyperlink) and gave the @Filepath as the formula there. @Filepath is the formula that gives me the complete path for the JPEG that I need to insert in the report.
filepath = field A + field B
where field A is the location for the image and field B is the actual image name.
the actual image is located in repository folder.
I am not able to see the image in the report "Preview" section as it is showing it has an empty box and when I click on that empty OLE object, I am able to view the image in a separate window where as my requirement is to view the image within the report (not in a separate window).
I didn't find anything useful under Format Graphics -> Picture tab.
I appreciate any kind of help from you all.
Thanks!That feature wasn't available nor was it supported in CR 10. You'll have to upgrade to CR Xi R2 or 2008 to allow using a database field as the location of the file.
CR 10 would only load the picture when the report is opened, it will never update when clicking on the refresh button. -

Give me your suggestion guys?? Thanks in Advance
Hello,
Still no luck.I am surely doing silly mistakes.Anyway,Here are my workings-
1> student_mst (id(pk),studentname) and student_guard_mst(id(fk),guardianname)
2> created EO from both of the tables,made id in both EO as DBSequence and an association was also generated.
3> i made that association composite by clicking the checkbox
4> i created 2 VO from 2 EO.
5> put those VO in Application Module.
6> dragged and dropped 2 VO on my jspx page and dropped them as ADF Form.
Now what to do please? -
How to use one dynamic connection managers for multiple parallel data flow tasks
hi there:
I have 6 databases residing on the same server. What I want to do is call a store procedure with identical name on each database dbo schema and transport results to a centralized place. The key is to have those SPs run in parallel instead
of in sequence as each SP may take around 10 mins to finish.
The simplest way is to create 6 OLE DB connection managers and create 6 DFT tasks. However, I do not want to maintain 6 OLE DB connection managers as there is a chance to have more connection managers.
What I did so far is to create a OLD DB connection manager and use expression to set up connectionString properties so that it will get populated by variables at run time. It is fine when running all SPs in a Foreach Loop Container. However, it takes
around 60 mins to finish.
When I try to run it in parallel ( basically created 6 DFTs but use only one Dynamic Connection Manager), the connection string gets confused therefore all DFT tasks failed.
Does anyone here have some experience on this topic?
Thanks
hui
--Currently using Reporting Service 2000; Visual Studio .NET 2003; Visual Source Safe SSIS 2008 SSAS 2008, SVN --Yes, basically, on the connectionString property of ONE OLEDB, you are using an expression to supply value and this expression is pointing to a variable.
In this case , you can update this variable from a table which contains many connection strings. It's good if you want to execute Store procedures in a sequential order. When in parallel mode, this will cause issues as connectionString gets overwritten.
I am thinking about using script task to exec sp.
The whole idea is that I do not want to maintain a large number of Connection Managers.
Hope it helps
--Currently using Reporting Service 2000; Visual Studio .NET 2003; Visual Source Safe SSIS 2008 SSAS 2008, SVN --
So you are not able to run parallel executions using same conn mgmr, even with dynamic connectionstring, is that correct? Yes, script task will be a way to go if you wish to execute it in parallel, you may connect to SS and query the proper conn string with
SELECT/WHERE clause in each script > pass it to a script variable > use that script variable and execute the proc. This will require only two things to change in each script, the WHERE condition to get the conn string and the proc name (you may even
get the proc names the same way you get conn string) and everything else will be same. Let us know how that goes.
Hope no two or more procs doing insert/update/delete on the same tables. -
Creating dynamic value range, one week at a time
Every Monday, I query a table to get data for the past week, every Monday (last Monday) to Sunday. I do some calculations with the data and insert the data and dates into a table.
I then use cfchart to create a graph using this data. The drilldown uses the same weekly date range to produce a report. So the record count for the chart and the report should be the same.
What I just discovered is that more data can be added to the query table after I have already obtained the data. Since the data for the chart is already in the table, it is static. But the report is dynamice since it uses the weekly date range everytime the drilldown is selected. This causes the count of the report to be different than the count of the chart.
Instead of gathering data every Monday and inserting into a table, for the chart, how can I make the chart data dynamic ?
I need to plot a rolling 12 weeks worth of data, always from Monday to Sunday, inclusive. So if I decide to run the chart on a Wednesday, how would I gather the twelve weeks worth of data, always from Monday to Sunday ? I need to make this dynamc.
The reports always work because the drilldown is pasing it the dates, thats why the count is always correct. But I do not know how to do this with the chart, which needs to be dynamic also, since static will not work.
Any help appreciated. ThanksTrojfn,
For gathering the data and inserting the same in to a table, why can't you use the scheduled tasks?. -
SSRS - Expression to color column value dynamically in Matrix
Hi ,
I have a matrix which looks like :
The <<Expr>> value can be 1 /0 /"-" .
The Expr value is being calculated dynamically.
The data set query I am using has a column called due_days.
In the color expression of the <<Exp>> box I am using the expression as :
=IIf(Fields!Due_Days.Value>14 and Fields!Notes_Count.Value>0,"Blue",(Iif(Sum(Fields!Notes_Count.Value)=0 ,"Red","Black")))
My requirement is if the Due_Days column value is >14 then I need to highlight the value as blue else black and if value is 0 then red. When I use the above query it is just highlighting the color blue for 1st column only. Eg: 4th row . Due days for month
of Oct and Nov is > 14 but it shows blue only for month of oct.
How can i resolve the issue?In select query i have 5 columns:
Due days(Which is difference between 2 dates) ,
Notes count (Which is just a count of notes entered or not having value 0/1 and value '-' if another column CRD is greater than the matrix month and year.)Eg: below date 11/12/2014 is greater than Oct 2014 hence Oct 2014 should have "-"
Month Name , Year , Month Nbr (last 6 months which I cross joined with the table to get counts for each month)
The matrix has year and last 6 month as column groups
Color coding should be if notes count is 0 then red ,if notes count is 1 and due_days> 14 then blue else black . When i try to use expression for color as i mentioned above, it colors only 1st colum.eg: 2nd row
Nov 2014 is blue but for jan 2014 also it should show blue as due days>14 .
Is there any way i can do that ??
Eg: data set returns value as :
Due Days CRD Month
Month_Nbr Year Notes _Count
5 2014-11-28 00:00:00.000 December 12 2014

How to load a class dynamically in the current/system class loader
I need to dynamically load a new jdbc driver jar to the current/system class loader... Please note that creating a new classloader will not help since the DriverManager refers to the systemclassloader itself.
Restarting the application by appending the jar to its classpath will solve the problem but I want to avoid doing this.Did you then create a ClassLoader to load the JDBC
driver and then install it into the system as
directed by the JDBC specification (ie
Class.forName(someClassName))?
And then try to use it from a class loaded fromsome
other ClassLoader (i.e. the system class loader)?
If you did not try this please explain why not.O.K. I just looked at the source to
java.sql.DriverManager. I did not know what I was
talking about, as what I suggested above will not
work.
This is my new Idea:
Create a URLClassLoader to load the JDBC driver also
in this ClassLoader you need to place a helper class
that does the following:
public class Helper {
public Driver getJDBCDriver(String driverClassName,
String url) {
try {
Class.forName(driverClassName);
Driver d = DriverManager.getDriver(url);
return d;
catch(Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
return null;
}Now create an instance of the Helper class in the new
ClassLoader, and call its getJDBCDriver method to get
an instance of the driver (you will probably have to
create an interface in the root class loader that the
Helper implements so that you can easily call it).
Now from the root classloader you can make calls
directly to the returned Driver and bypass the
DriverManager and its restrictions on cross
ClassLoader access.
The only catch here is that you would have to call to
the returned Driver directly and not use the Driver
Manager.This sounds like will work but I did not want to load DriverManager in a new classloader.. I did a hack
I unzip the jar dynamically in a previously known location (which I included in my classpath when launching the app). The classLoader finds the class now though it did not exist when the app was launched !
A hack of-course but works eh ..
