Foreign Function calls on Web

I have employed foreign function calls to several COM objects (dll's) within my forms application. It works fine as a client /server product but when i attempt to deploy it across the web the forms cannot locate the dll's.
I have have installed and registered all the dlls on both the webserver machine and the client machine. No information is passed to the FF's - they are doing internal validation of licenses.
Has anyone else tried something similar or am i chasing ghosts in hoping that i can do this across the web

Flex Beta 3
Also, is there a way of debugging or dumping
objects/variables?? and in CF we can do a <cfdump
var="#session#" /> or whatever. I figured that is why you asked
which version of Flex?
It would be nice to inspect objects and see whats inside. I
finally got CF and Flex to work together and I can now populate my
data grids from query objects, but it would be nice to be able to
say dump the object before I populate my datagrid or whatever just
to see. I have learned just using <cfdump> in CF.

Forms hanging after multiple calls to Foreign Function Interface

Hi,
Can anyone help me with this problem. I'm getting a 'FRM-92100:
Your connection to the server was interrupted ... Details ...
Java Exception:java.io.EOFException' error message when i make
two calls to a c share object file using the ORA_FFI package.
Forms will hang with that error message when I call the foreign
function more than once and when the ORA_FFI.LOAD_LIBRARY
function is executed twice.
I've tried using the ORA_FFI.UNLOAD_LIBRARY function at the end
straight after the load library plus my processes and it still
hangs with that error message.
I've got a temporary work around which is not ideal but it
works. I've made another copy of the C shared object file and
renamed it and made my second call to load this library.
I would prefer to have one shared object file and make multiple
calls to it from forms. Any suggestions?
note : running forms 6.0 on three tier architecture with web
browser.

Try incrementing a counter every time you call the function
and decrementing
it on the way out. When you hit 2640 times, stop calling it.

FRM-40734 when calling a foreign function requiring more than 1 dll

I have been experiencing difficulties in calling external DLL functions from SECURSIGN.DLL. This time no peculiar type of parameter is involved, just four varchar2.
A dump file "ifrun60_dump_nnn" is generated by FORMS every time I issue the aborted call to the foreign function.
Inside the form dump file, apart from useless info like Registers and so on, the message: "Could not find Module32First"
I know for sure that SECURSIGN.DLL needs also other DLLs, and that the first foreign function I call, calls other functions in other DLLs. I found that Module32First is a routine within each of the following DLLs:
Cl32
d2kwut32
d2kwut60
I copied all those DLLs in the current work directory along with my FMB/FMX, in ORANT\BIN, in C:\WINNT\SYSTEM.
I modified the PROCEDURE LoadLibrary (part of the FFI-generated PLL code) to load those DLLs along with SECURSIGN.DLL: no problem in loading all the DLLs that I wish, but the error persists.
How can I avoid all that mess and the FRM-40734 error?? Is there a specific problem in resolving the references to other DLLs?
Please notice that - on the same computer - in Visual Basic everything (and the very same call in particular) works perfectly.

I have noticed just now that a dump file having a name like ifrun60_dump_299, is generated by FORMS every time I issue the aborted call to the foreign function.
Inside the form dump file, apart from useless info like Registers and so on, the message:
"Could not find Module32First"
By a FILE/FIND/CONTAINING TEXT I searched all the DLLs, and I noticed that Module32First is a routine that can be found within each of the following DLLs:
Cl32
d2kwut32
d2kwut60
I tried to load those DLLs along with SECURSIGN.DLL by modifying the PROCEDURE LoadLibrary into the FFI-generated PLL code, and I have apparently no problem in loading all the DLLs that I wish, but the error persists, and that dump file is constantly generated, always looking for the "Module32First" routine.
How can I avoid all that mess and the FRM-40734 error??

Getting "museJSAssert: Error calling selector function: Reference Error: Web Pro is not defined".

First off, I am not a coding person. I decided to use Muse becuse I am good with Illustrator and Photoshop.
The sight I built: www.speedcinch.com is now getting a bunch of errors when it initially was working fine. I am using godaddy for a host and using their ftp.
This is the error I am getting now: museJSAssert: Error calling selector function: Reference Error: Web Pro is not defined
You can see how my sight is supposed to work at http://speedcinchcom.businesscatalyst.com/index.html
I have no idea what to do. Please help.

Well, if nothing else I've ascertained that it's not GoDaddy's connectivity issue, as the issue continues late into today, and it does vary a bit per the other error reports. Using FileZilla there are just a few timeouts in the log, enough to give some pause but not necessarily (according to GD) disruptive. I've checked the list of uploaded files against the Muse Export folder contents and everything is there. In fact, the site looks good, buttons work, rollovers, etc, but there are no images. Like everyone else, this has cost me time and money in the last 24 hours.
Let's see what the good people at Adobe live chat have to say, and I'll share it with you.

Enable the "calling WebIDL constructors as functions" on the web

Hi,
I am developing a web application using php and python. After updating the Firefox to the latest version 30.0, some functions on my app do not work anymore. I checked the change logs of Firefox and found out this change: "Disallow calling WebIDL constructors as functions on the web" caused the issue on my tool.
So how can I fix this on the browser side since I cannot change the codes immediately right now?
Also a suggestion: Please reverse this change on the next update of this browser since this will affect my users or else I have to greatly change the codes.
Thanks

Please check out where this is fixed and the Site Compatibility list in the last portion of the bug [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=916644]

Calling a web service In Netweaver 7.0 abap stack through an external alias

Hello,
In CRM 2007 (Netweaver 7.0 abap stack SP 16), we have defined a web service from a module function using the wizard and configuring it with SOAMANAGER.
This web service works great when calling it with the "official" URL, something like :
http://host.domain:port/sap/bc/srt/rfc/sap/zwebservice/client/zoperation/zbinding
We would like to use a more simple URL. So with SICF, I have created an external alias /zwebservice which points to the "official" URL.
The problem is that it does not work. I get every time an HTTP 500 error code and an error Message
u201CThe configuration of the http server is missingu201D.
Do you think that it is possible to call a web service through an external alias ?
Thanks in advance for any ideas or solution !
Olivier

Seems that no one has tried it...
I close the question.

Calling a web service in ABAP

Hello Experts!
After I am assuming the SOAP Experts at the SOAP Forum
are being already on christmas vacation
I saw no other possiblitiy to post my question right here.
I have created a web service through:
Open the affected function Module .
Choose Utilities -> More Utilities -> Creating a Web Service -> From Function Module.
Later you can test it with SOAMANAGER etc.
The goal is now (requirement)
Calling a web service in ABAP.
How can I generally call a (eg .above created by me ) webservice with abap which is existing on the sap system (Web Services which are generated from Function Modules)
Has really nobody such a problem ever before ?

ertas ilhan

Michael thank you very much.
You are saying:
The easiest way to do it is with the WSDL file that you'll get from the existing Web Service. In your proxy class it will generate a method which you can then call within your program to consume that web service.
I understand the first part with the WSDL file but the second part it is unclear to me with
In your proxy class it will generate a method which you can then call within your program to consume that web service
Can you please explain me this more detailed.

Help needed in calling a Web service

Hi,
I want to call a web service from my component. The called web service might have different names, therefore I don't want to use the proxy class way.
I am facing problem in parsing the input parameters from the wsdl file. I have attached the wsdl file at the end.
I am using the javax.wsdl.xml.WSDLReader(axis). I have been able to parse all the bindings, ports and messages but
1. i am not able to parse the wsdl:types to obtain the input parameters
//javax.wsdl.Operation op obtained from the port which alternatively obtained from Definition
Message inputs = op.getInput().getMessage();
Part part = null;
// let's find the input params
Map inputParts = inputs.getParts();
// create the object array which Axis will use to pass in the parameters
inputParams = new Object[inputParts.size()];
s = inputParts.keySet();
it = s.iterator();
int i = 0;
while(it.hasNext())
part = (Part) inputParts.get(it.next());
Afetr performing this, i have no clue as to how to parse the input parameters.
2. How will i generate the java Objects array from these input parameters to pass to the Call.invoke function, i.e.
Call call = (Call) service.createCall();
call.setOperation(portQN, operationName);
Object ret = (Integer) call.invoke(inputParams);
The function takes an object[] as input but since i have complex types involved in wsdl, so how will this object array needs to be populated

Calling a Web Service in a SSRS Report - Error Converting String to Generic List of Strings

Hello,
I am using SSRS version 2005 and am trying to call a web service to retrieve data for a SSRS report. I've looked on Google and MSDN for the past 2 days and have exhausted all options. Here are the details...
The web service method I am calling accepts 4 parameters...
Parameter 1 = Generic list of strings
Parameter 2 = DateTime
Parameter 3 = Int
Parameter 4 = Int
I have created a function (on the CODE tab in report properties) in my report that gets passed a comma delimited string and returns a Generic List of Strings that I use to format Parameter 1. The code for the function is as follows:
Public Function GetIDs(ByVal IDList as String) As List(Of String)
   Dim stringArray() = IDList.Split(",")
   Dim genericList As New List(Of String)(stringArray)
   Return genericList
End Function
I am passing a string to the function that looks something like this:
"1,2,3,4"
When I try to PREVIEW the report, I get an error that reads:
"There is an error on line 0 of custom code: [BC30002] Type 'List' is not defined"
I've tried changing the function declaration to pass back a string array:
Public Function GetIDs(ByVal IDList as String) As String()
    Return IDList.Split(","c)
End Function
This returned the error (from the web service):
"Error in line 5 position 22. Expecting state 'Element'.. Encountered 'Text' with name ", namespace"
I have also tried changing the function declaration to pass back an array:
Public Function GetIDs(ByVal IDList as String) As ARRAY
This also produced the error:
"Error in line 5 position 22. Expecting state 'Element'.. Encountered 'Text' with name ", namespace"
I know that this particular web service method DOES work because it is coded to accept nulls in the first parameter. So... when I call the method with nulls, it returns a recordset of ALL data (this works fine). Only when I pass a string to the function (which "filters" the recordset by the ID list), does the error occur.
Is SRSS limited with respect to VB.NET code so that the List(Of String) statement is not recognized? Has anyone done this before and if so, how did you convert a comma delimited string to a Generic List of Strings within a function in the SSRS report?
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Bob

Hi Bob,
By default, in custom code, in order to use a variable or function that is not in the "System" namespace, we need to provide the full name.
In this case, the full name of the "List" is "System.Collections.Generic.List"
So, to solve the issue, please use the following code:
Public Function GetIDs(ByVal IDList as String) As System.Collections.Generic.List(Of String)
Dim stringArray() = IDList.Split(",")
Dim genericList As New System.Collections.Generic.List(Of String)(stringArray)
Return genericList
End Function
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

Calling a Web Service from Mobile - UI options

Hi Team,
I have a scenario where the backend SAP functionality is exposed as a web service and we need to call it online from a mobile handheld device (Symbol with Pocket PC client 2003, IE browser 4.0). Is it possible to call this web service from the handheld? Do we have to write the web service call on the J2EE stack using NetWeaver developer studio?
Also, what UI technology is recommended for showing the data from the web service call. The idea is to get some user input on the handheld, and then post a transaction via the web service on SAP. I discussed with some of my colleagues and they recommend to use JSP/Servlets for this. Does anybody has a better idea, (the JSP/Servlets does not seem correct). Should we use native XSLT or something else.
Please note that the Mobile Web Dynpro has limitations on the UI side and the "onEnter", "setFocus" does not work, specifically on the netweaver 2004s release. The backend ERP system we have is 2004s and I'm trying to make a web service call from a NW 2004 client.
Any ideas or pointers will be appreciated and points awarded. Thanks for your time.

Hi Sanjay!
Yes, To call a WebService you will have to write your Own Application using NWDS.I donot have any specific recommendation for the UI Technology to be used.
Usage of "OnEnter" and "SetFocus" with NW2004s has certain limitations below.
"OnEnter" is not a supported feature as of now especially for WD applications on Handheld Devices.
"SetFocus" will work on IE6.0 Standard Desktop Browser with WAS7.0 SP06 and i believe it will work in hand held devices if your using WAS7.0(NW2004s)SP8 and you are using the latest Symbol Device that has Windows Mobile 5.0 OR Windows CE.NET 5.0.I understand that there could be some limitations with the OS and the IE you are currently running in the device.
Let me know your views.
Thank You

Calling a web service from within PLSQL

Hello !
I am trying to activate a web service located on a remote machine inside a database trigger . This WSDL has been generated by a XI (SAP) tool and located on the server on which the XI is installed.
XI is an EAI tool a product that is included in the SAP products - for integrating between SAP and other tools - including Oracle DB.
When I try to call the web service using UTL_HTTP package - a procedure i wrote correctly - I get the following error message :
ORA-29273: HTTP request failed
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_HTTP", line 1029
ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist
I have GOOGLED the last message ( ORA-12545) , but the forums referred to a client for ORACLE, which is configured incorrectly; none of them referred to my case - calling a web service. BTW I tried using the web server's IP address instead of the DNS but got the same error.
Any suggestion would be very appreciated.
Best Regards,
Shimon B.

Try the following type of "telnet" test using PL/SQL:
SQL> create or replace function tcpPing( ipAddress varchar2, portNum number) return varchar2 is
2 socket utl_tcp.connection;
3 t1 timestamp with local time zone;
4 begin
5 t1 := systimestamp;
6 socket := utl_tcp.Open_Connection(
7 remote_host => ipAddress,
8 remote_port => portNum,
9 tx_timeout => 5
10 );
11 utl_tcp.Close_Connection( socket );
12
13 return( ipAddress||':'||TO_CHAR(portNum)||' is alive. ('|| TO_CHAR(systimestamp-t1) ||')' );
14
15 exception when OTHERS then
16 return( ipAddress||':'||TO_CHAR(portNum)||' did not respond. ('||SQLERRM(SQLCODE)||')' );
17 end;
18 /
Function created.

Call a web services from oracle forms 10

I have to call a web services from oracle forms.
The version of the database is oracle 11gr2. the version of the forms is 10.1.2.0.2.
I allready did the proxy creation and the import class within forms.
I have 2 questions:
1.
I created the following procedure:
PROCEDURE call_WS IS
vobject1 ORA_JAVA.JOBJECT;
vobject2 ORA_JAVA.JOBJECT;
BEGIN
vobject1 := WSEvaluarReglaCondicionComerci.new();
vobject2 := WSEvaluarReglaCondicionComerci.listarValoresAtributoEvento(vobject1, 702, 2217, null, null, null);
END;
the function I calling:
FUNCTION listarValoresAtributoEvento(
obj ORA_JAVA.JOBJECT,
a0 ORA_JAVA.JOBJECT,
a1 ORA_JAVA.JOBJECT,
a2 ORA_JAVA.JOBJECT,
a3 VARCHAR2,
a4 ORA_JAVA.JOBJECT) RETURN ORA_JAVA.JOBJECT;
Note that the parameters is ORA_JAVA_JOBJECT and I need to send numbers. I understand that when I import the classes, because in the WS those parameters are defined as BigDecimal, Forms understand them as java object but when I compile it reports the error: "numero o tipo de argumento erroneo al llamar..." type error.
So the question is, how Cast the numbers to Java Object to send them.
I have read in a web page that one option is to change in the web service the type of the parameters but that is not an option.
2.
The WS returns a super big XML as answer, so how I can parse the result into an Object type?...
The object structure is:
TYPE opciones_obj AS OBJECT
(strindice VARCHAR2 (4000),
nombrecompleto VARCHAR2 (4000),
nombre VARCHAR2 (4000),
strtipodato VARCHAR2 (4000),
codigoopcion NUMBER,
floatval FLOAT,
strtipo VARCHAR2 (4000),
strval VARCHAR2 (4000));
and the tags to extract is:
COLUMNS strindice VARCHAR2 (4000)
PATH 'ns2:mapEntry[ns2:key="strIndice"]/ns2:value',
nombrecompleto VARCHAR2 (4000)
PATH 'ns2:mapEntry[ns2:key="nombreCompleto"]/ns2:value',
nombre VARCHAR2 (4000)
PATH 'ns2:mapEntry[ns2:key="nombre"]/ns2:value',
strtipodato VARCHAR2 (4000)
PATH 'ns2:mapEntry[ns2:key="strTipoDato"]/ns2:value',
codigoopcion NUMBER
PATH 'ns2:mapEntry[ns2:key="codigoOpcion"]/ns2:value',
floatval FLOAT
PATH 'ns2:mapEntry[ns2:key="floatVal"]/ns2:value',
strtipo VARCHAR2 (4000)
PATH 'ns2:mapEntry[ns2:key="strTipo"]/ns2:value',
strval VARCHAR2 (4000)
PATH 'ns2:mapEntry[ns2:key="strVal"]/ns2:value') x;
xquery / xmltype aparently is not an option because the xml is too big.
I will appreciate your answers.
Thanks.

i created jar file to call it from forms
Could you be a little bit less vague about what you exactly did?
Anyway; see here http://bit.ly/10VVoMR

Calling secured Web Service

Hi,
I am new in calling web service from PL/SQL block.
From the code I'm successfully able to call non-secured webservice like this "http://www.ignyte.com/webservices/ignyte.whatsshowing.webservice/moviefunctions.asmx?wsdl"
And also by setting the wallet I'm also able to call secured web service like this "https://www.docusign.net/api/3.0/Credential.asmx?WSDL" (ping method).
For calling this secured service I stored certs with chain into the wallet and that works.
But my problem is a different web service where that web service is authenticating me with my certificate. I have VeriSign certificate with private key and that web service has my public key. Whenever I will send SOAP request I need to send my certificate with the request. And communication will be over SSL.
I have created a wallet with complete chain from the PFX file I received from VeriSign and Wallet is in Ready state, also I have included web service's certificate also.
Whenever I am trying to make SOAP call I'm getting
ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [kgazmo_1], [], [], [], [], [], [], []
Please let me know where is the problem. May be I'm not able to send my certificate for authentication or may be I'm not able to establish SSL for communication from PL/SQL.
I'm using 10.1.2 as database. I also have 10g AS installed, if that can help in achieving this.
Code is as follows:
FUNCTION CallWS
RETURN xmltype
AS
l_request soap_api.t_request;
l_response soap_api.t_response;
l_url VARCHAR2(32767);
l_namespace VARCHAR2(32767);
l_method VARCHAR2(32767);
l_soap_action VARCHAR2(32767);
l_doc xmltype;
BEGIN
l_url := 'https://secured.webservice.com/WS/WebService.asmx';
l_namespace := 'xmlns="https://secured.webservice.com/WS"';
l_method := 'GetMe';
l_soap_action := 'https://secured.webservice.com/WS/GetMe';
utl_http.set_wallet('file:c:/wallets','pass123');
l_request := soap_api.new_request(p_method => l_method,
p_namespace => l_namespace);
soap_api.add_parameter(p_request => l_request,
p_name => 'param1',
p_type => 'xsd:string',
p_value => 'val1');
soap_api.add_parameter(p_request => l_request,
p_name => 'param2',
p_type => 'xsd:string',
p_value => 'val2');
l_response := soap_api.invoke(p_request => l_request,
p_url => l_url,
p_action => l_soap_action );
l_doc := l_response.doc;
RETURN l_doc;
END CallWS;
You can find SOAP_API package here [SOAP_API|http://www.oracle-base.com/dba/miscellaneous/soap_api.sql] .
Thanks in advance.

Thanks again Billy,
I have configured a wallet with all the necessary certificates. Actually I have purchased a VeriSign trusted certificate and convert that into Oracle Wallet (p12) using openssl with appropriate password. And I'm calling UTL_HTTP.set_wallet('<path_to_wallet>','<pass_to_open_it>');
I have send my public key to them (web service company) and they need me to send my certificate with every request so that they can authenticate.
You are saying we don't have to write any code for TLS/SSL UTL_HTTP will take care of that, thats really good.
One more thing I want to mention here...
In Internet Explorer - When I am importing my certificate without my private key and trying to access web service I'm getting 404 page not found error.
But when I'm importing my certificate with the private key, I can see WSDL and all other methods offered by that web service.
I'm guessing Oracle Wallet that I'm creating with my certificate will store private key also. B'coz it is showing me User Certificate in Ready state.
ORA-00600 is not giving me proper location where I can find any error in my code.
Thanks

Calling SharePoint Web Services from PL/SQL

We are trying to call SharePoint Web Services with UTL_DBWS or UTL_HTTP. We are able to call some test web services, but when it comes to using SharePoint services, we keep getting 401 errors..even when we use set_authorization.
Has anyone been able to use UTL_DBWS or UTL_HTTP to call SharePoint web services? If so, can you point us in the right direction?
Thanks

AB,
I didn't realize you cannot attach documents to your post. You will have to provide me with an email address that I can send the documents to. They are a little rough (ie not commented etc) but they do illustrate the point. The basic idea is to build up the payload of the soap envelope using pl/sql. Meaning as I loop through the cursor I use each record in the cursor to build an xml string. This string of xml becomes the payload of the soap message. This could also be done using xml functionality provided by the db meaning xmlelement, xmlforest etc. The issue I ran into was the size of the message. That is why I elected to build the xml message by string concatenation as I moved through the cursor.
