Extension of Controller doesnot work- Oracle Quoting

Question

Hi,
I am trying to extend a standard controller(QotQuoteDetailsCO) on the Quoting page. I am calling my custom code after the super.processFormRequest of the controller. Howver this call to the custom code doesnt work though there is no impact on the standard functionality.
super.processFormRequest(pageContext, webBean);
OAApplicationModule am = pageContext.getRootApplicationModule();
OAMessageTextInputBean fieldQotHdrNm =
(OAMessageTextInputBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("QotHdrNm");
String qotName = fieldQotHdrNm.getText(pageContext);
String qotNameCtn = qotName.substring(1, 7);
if (pageContext.getParameter("QotFrmEvt") == "Event.QuoteDet") {
if (pageContext.getParameter("QotHdrAction") == "COPY") {
OADBTransaction txn = am.getOADBTransaction();
CallableStatement cs =
txn.createCallableStatement("BEGIN sgx_aso_quote_pkg.copy_quote (" +
"p_qot_hdr_id_new => ?, " +
"p_qot_hdr_id_old => ?, " +
"p_return_status => ?, " +
"p_err_message => ?); END;",
-1);
String returnStatus = null;
String messageData = null;
try {
cs.setInt(1, (new Integer(1543).intValue()));
cs.setInt(2, (new Integer(1406).intValue()));
cs.registerOutParameter(3, Types.VARCHAR);
cs.registerOutParameter(4, Types.VARCHAR);
cs.execute();
returnStatus = cs.getString(3);
messageData = cs.getString(4);
if (returnStatus.equals("E")) {
throw new OAException("Error: " + messageData);
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new OAException("Error: " + e);
} finally {
try {
if (cs != null) {
cs.close();
} catch (Exception localException1) {
System.out.println("Error in Details Finally : " +
localException1);
If I remove the call to super.processFormRequest the custom code gets executed properly.
If I comment out the pageContext.getParameter conditions the custom code gets executed but it gets executed on every event on the page.
Please help me understand the issue here.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Anoop

HI,
Use
OAMessageTextInputBean fieldQotHdrNm =
(OAMessageTextInputBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("QotHdrNm");
String qotName = fieldQotHdrNm.getText(pageContext);
String qotNameCtn = qotName.substring(1, 7);
String event = pageContext.getParameter("QotFrmEvt");
String action = pageContext.getParameter("QotHdrAction");
OADBTransaction txn = am.getOADBTransaction();
txn.writeDiagnostics(this,"Event is "+event,1);
txn.writeDiagnostics(this,"Action is "+action,1);
Now on page click on diagnostics, then from picklist select enable log on screen
then select STATEMENT(1) and press Go.
Then press Home button and then go to your page.
as the page gets opened try to serch for "Event is " in log displayed on screen
This will show your values.
Thanks,
Gaurav
