Forms 11 integration with ADF 11g Example

Hi,
i found the nice screencast Screencast, it shows the interaction Forms 11 and ADF 11...
Now my question:
Is there some more information / tutorials for building Forms 11-Applications which interacts with ADF-11?
kind regards
Martin

Hi Martin, I probably need to set the expectations in that we will look to put together some samples/demos/howtos on integrating Forms and ADT graphs but thats something for the next 6 months (and you probably need something yesterday).
In terms of calling ADF from Forms and visa versa, since both are launched from URLs so you can simply call something like web.show_document('ADF URL'). However, I think we really need to look deeper since there are different ways of integrating Forms and Java applications. Maybe what you really want to do is something like
http://groundside.com/blog/GrantRonald.php?title=oracle_forms_and_google_charts&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1
I'm also interested in the business motivation - why do you want to migrate Forms to ADF - if its simply so you can leverage features like charting - maybe the above example could help.
Regards

What are correct steps of integrating and using jasper report with ADF 11g?

Hi,
I am using JDev 11.1.1.2.0 with ADF 11g.
I want to use jasperreports 3.7.0 along with ADF 11g to build reports in PDF on a button event. This is the first time I will be attempting it so before starting up I went through forum to get exact and clear steps on the jars and integration points of jasper with adf. There is exhaustive list but still it does not have the needed clarity.
Can anyone help in listing down the jars and integration steps? and also want to know if there are any points in particular that I need to be aware of while running i along with ADF faces.
Pls note the ver. of jasper and adf mentioned above.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Basically, you need to:
- have all the jars in ViewProject/WEB-INF/lib, and include them to the project (Project properties -> Libraries and Classpath) - last time I did this was with version 3.1.3 and the necessary jars were jasperreports-3.1.3.jar, jcommon-1.0.0.jar and iText-2.1.4.jar (plus poi<+whatever is the latest version+>.jar if you want to generate .XLS reports)
- call the code for generating reports from your backing bean (button's actionListener)
- flush the report to the client (directly to HTTPResponse or by using af:fileDownloadListener)
Those are the general steps, without going into the coding.

here when i fire Add button , i want to add the same set of input text box with label of ADF form i mean the above i have created ADF form.
like
ADF FORM
+ --> ADD BUTON
EMPNO ________
EMPNAME ______
EMPDEPT ____
when i fire "+" ADD BUTTON
+ -- > ADD BUTTON
EMPNO ________
EMPNAME ______
EMPDEPT ____
EMPNO ________

Problem in submit button on adobe form integrated with web dynpro

Hello,
I'm facing prob in triggering web dynpro event onSubmit for Interactive form.
I've created a submit button from web dynpro activex pallete on adobe form (integrated with web dynpro) to send the form as email.
Then in the web dynpro view where this form is embedded i have created an action against onSubmit event and called a method within this.
However, on clicking Submit button this event is not getting triggered.
Please let me know what is lacking in this process?
Thanks.

Hi,
I am also facing the same problem. i have developed a simple scenario under which user have to input his/her details and on submit button it will be updated to database.
I have tried the above solution but after adopting this solution all the editable fields become non-editable.
so the above solution is not working for me could you help me out.
I think ... try this....
When you create the Adobe Form from WebDynpro, you need to follow one step in SFP Transaction or inSE80 transaction. Open the Adobe Form in any one the transaction and now in SAP menu bar "Utilities" in that you will find the "INSERT THE WEBDYNPRO SCRIPT" just click on that one. Then you will see a new Script Object is being created with the name "ContainerFoundation_JS" under the "Variables" in the Heirarchy of the Object Pallete of the Adobe Form.
This step is mandatory to use the SUBMIT Button of the "WebDynpro Native", to trigger the OnSubmit event of the WebDynpro.
Thanks

Avaya(Non-java app) integration with ADF

Hi,
We have a desktop application Avaya (non-Java) & want to integrate it with ADF. Currently we do it by passing parameters in HTTP URL. If the user clicks on a button in non-java app, it should:
(1) open search page of an ADF application and execute search.
(2) if the ADF application is already open, the button on Avaya app should execute search with partial page refresh. However, the whole page is being refreshed.
Can you please guide, how to do this with partial page refresh? , as the No 1 is almost achieved.
Thanks,
NC

Hi Shay,
Below Options were tried for integration. Please have a look at them and suggest if there is any other possible way to Integrate Avaya with ADF.
1) Calling ADF application with URL parameters.
Reasons to drop:
Every time a URL is called the entire page will get rendered again taking some 2-3 seconds which is very critical to the application.
ADF is capable of handling URL parameters without re-loading the whole page(http://oracamp.com/passing-parameters-adf-application-through-url). But we can't use this inbuilt way as we have many customized developments implemented in the page. This way directly works at AMImpl (at Model level) level. We want the events to be fired at View level. That is backing bean level.
2) Avaya is capable of dealing with ActiveX (OCX). They sent me 2 DLLs which handles communication between web page and Avaya application. A simulator was also sent (bundle attached herewith). The steps to be carried out for testing are-
Installation procedures:
i. Register the DTLCRMINT.ocx file. Start->Run-> Type the command
ii. regsvr32 <ocx file location>
iii. Register the DTLINTCMP.ocx file. Start->Run-> Type the command
iv. regsvr32 <ocx file location>
v. Double click on the Clinet.exe it would open up a windows application with a Textbox and Command button. Put In the data which needs to be sent.
vi. Open the CRM Page.html. On opening the OCX would be loaded by default.
vii. Now clicking the Send Data button on the client application, whatever information is there in the Client Text Box would be sent to the web page.
viii. From CRM side, the application needs to use the OCX provided, and must wait for the event. On receiving the event the data that is retrieved as a part of the event can be parsed to update the text box and click on the search button.
Reasons to drop:
It works fine with basic HTML page. But once integrated with ADF page as an inline frame it doesn't work. We tried to embed the OCX object inside <verbatim> tags, but was not successful. The event fired by ActiveX object is triggered at client side by VBScript function. Avaya's ActiveXs seem to be only working with VBScript according to my understanding. So there was no way for ADF to capture VBScript events.
ADF is capable of javascript up to some extent. To do a critical application like this, my feeling is javascript is never a good option.
3) To use a text file. Avaya writes, ADF application reads.
Reasons to drop:
ADF can read the text files with normal java IO methods. But only the server directories are visible. So, Avaya has to write the information in the server file. With using a parameter like user name, ADF application can read the file in regular time intervals (with using poll feature) and get relevant information and automatically run the search.
Initially the idea was to do this at client side. But since this is a web application, file reading at client side is next to impossible. Again when one side is reading and the other side is writing, file access violations may occur.
4) Another option is if Avaya can offer the value in a web service, the ADF application can get it.
Reasons to drop:
There may occur a latency as well as Avaya says they can't offer web services.
5) The ideal solution is, the ADF application's front end control's IDs can be provided. If the Avaya system is capable of accessing or getting hold of DOM and pushing the value to the controls and clicking the button; things would become pretty straight forward. JMeter works like this in testing J2EE applications.
Any Recommendations how can it be done .
Thanks.

Oracle Life science Data Hub integrated with OBIEE 11g

Hi all,
I have couple of questions from my end,
1. How Oracle Life Science Data Hub can be Integrated with OBIEE 11g.
2. Whether Oracle LSH is a separate software ? if it so kindly provide the link to download the LSH.
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,
Murali

Hi Murali,
I do not know whether obiee can use Oracle LSH as a source or not but please refer below link. It says that
1) Users can then launch the Oracle Business Intelligence Dashboard
either through Oracle LSH or through a URL to see data visualizations.
2)
Oracle LSH Release 2.2 supports using OBIEE 10.1.3.4.1 for both programs and
visualizations and OBIEE 11.1.1.5.0 for visualizations only.
Please check with you administrator.

How Connect Oracle Forms 6 With Database 11g R2

Hello every one:
I'm Have application made by Forms 6 and Oracle 10g, now i'm make upgrade to my DB to 11G
but have problem when make connection between Forms 6 and 11g
ORA-02248: invalid option for ALTER SESSION
pls help me !!
Thnx

Oracle Forms 6i is not certified with Oracle RDBMS 11g and the last I read - there was no plans to certify Forms 6i with RDBMS 11g. If you search the Forums you can find some workarounds to make Forms 6i work with RDBMS 11g, but these are not Oracle Supported workarounds.
Your only real options are to leave things as they are or upgrade both your Forms application and the database. If you opt to upgrade your Forms application, you need to upgrade your Forms application to at least Forms 10g R2 (10.1.2.0.2) to be supported.

Exchange 2013 owa integration with ADFS and cooexistance with exchange 2007

Team,
I have successfully integrated adfs 3.0 and Exchange 2013 owa and ecp. However, we have a coexistence environment with exchange 2007. When you access owa, which then redirects you to adfs, sign-in, and then get redirected back to owa. If your
mailbox is still within exchange 2007, you get a blank login page. If you mailbox is in exchange 2013 then you successfully get the owa page for 2013. The problem is that all exchange 2007 mailbox users get blank pages at login. So I have determined
that exchange 2013 cas is not doing the service location lookup on the mailbox to determine if a redirect to the legacy owa address is needed. Is there a configuration setting that I might be missing? Or does the integration with adfs and owa not support
the much needed mailbox lookup for a coexistance environment? A side note: if we enable FBA with owa, both login scenarios work just fine (legacy and new 2013). The legacy namespace has been created, and applied to the exchange 2007 urls.

Can Oracle Application Express (APEX) be integrated with ADF applications?

Hi All,
Oracle Application Express (APEX) works on various supported databases. Can this tool be integrated with ADF for report publishing, in adf some of my result is coming from Business Components , so can these things be related to each other?
Please provide a suitable forum to ask this question if this question doesn't fir in ambit of this forum.
Thanks in advance.

There are a couple of things you can do - a lot depends on what your application needs. Since you ask this in the JDeveloper forum, I'm going to address getting to ApEx from ADF, not to ADF from ApEx - but some of the same possibilities apply.
Easiest thing to do is to jump into the ApEx application with a af:goLink or af:goCommand referencing the needed page's URL. By setting the target, you can control whether it opens in a new window or the same window. I'm not currently using ApEx, but I have a few reports written as PL/SQL Server Pages that I call exactly this way.
You can also open the ApEx pages in an af:inlineFrame - and it will look like it is inside your ADF application - but use inline frames with a little caution - they don't work perfectly in all browsers, notably Mobile Safari.
ApEx can't look inside your ADF BC objects, but of course, if your two applications are using the same database, you can communicate between them within the database. One possibility to look at is Advanced Queuing.
Some ApEx functionality can be executed by executing the underlying PL/SQL procedures - do a search in this forum for how to call PL/SQL from an ADF BC Application Module.

BPM Tasklist Integration with ADF Application

Hi Experts,
We are using Jdeveloper 11.1.1.7 in our project and need to integrate with Oracle BPM 11g. We basically need to see the BPM task list as well as initiate a new task from ADF Application.
I have already searched the blogs and internet about the same. Below are some of them along with andrejus blogs.
Con-Fusion, Bugs, Facts & Workarounds: ADF-BPM Integration: Custom Worklist.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/user.1111/e15175/bpmug_ws_taskflows.htm#BPMUG20812
What I am looking for is step by step process including the things which needs to be done on Weblogic and domain side to integrate task list with adf application.
Thanks

It seems all of the instructions are there on your second link. When it comes to doing the weblogic portions there are links from there to another guide. I found the following two other links but your second link looks the closest to what I remember from an internal document that had those same steps.

Struts integration with ADF

HI All,
I have questions related to the architecure .
I have plans to integrate the Struts with ADF11g ,i think this kind of requirement is very less .
Plase tell me the adavantges and disadvantages over it ,give some refrences links,videos
Thanks

Hi.
Struts was one of the possible options in ADF 10g for the controller layer. It has been dropped in 11g since we now provide task flows, which we feel are better suited to modern rich applications. Do not forget that Struts is Action-based, whereas JDF/ADF are Component-based. Thus, Struts and ADF 11g are not a really good fit together. (See http://java.dzone.com/articles/categorization-web-frameworks)
For reference, the main advantages of ADF task flows are:
- The application can be broken up into a series of modular flows that call one another.
- You can add to the task flow diagram nodes such as views, method calls, and calls to other task flows.
- Navigation is between pages as well as other activities, including routers.
- ADF task flows are reusable within the same or an entirely different application.
- After you break up your application into task flows, you may decide to reuse task flows containing common functionality.
- Shared memory scope (for example, page flow scope) enables data to be passed between activities within the task flow. Page flow scope defines a unique storage area for each instance of an ADF bounded task flow.

OBIEE Integration with ADF - Reports with bind variables

Hi,
I've managed to integrate obiee with ADF by following the steps described in:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-publisher/adf-bip-ucm-integration-179699.pdf
This is all fine and all but what about reports with complex queries where bind variables are needed?
In short I need to send specific values from ADF application as parameters to the query of the report before building it, then create it and download the file as pdf.
I don't have problems with building the file and downloading it when the query in the report has no bind variables, but when it does I do not know how to send them to the report.
I can't seem to find such an implementation or example anywhere and I am stuck.
Could anyone please point me in the right direction, eighter by providing a solution, or a link to such an example?
Thank you!
P.S.
I'm using OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0 and JDeveloper 11.1.2.1.0

Ebusiness suite integration with ADF

HI there xperts!
I am having a lot of trouble trying to decipher the multitude of information around for integrating Jdeveloper ADF applications with ebusiness 12.1.3
Essentially, I have created a number of view pages, in my application but now need to call some API's to add transactional capabilities.
My undertstanding at this time, is to actually expose web services and call those in ADF using web service data controls.
I have been able to go to the integration repository and deploy the APIs. It is at this point I get stuck. Do I have to use BPEL / Oracle Service BUS?
Or can I now access these exposed services directly from ADF. If so, how? I can see addresses specific to our environment in the WSDL file, however, these are invalid when I try to create a web service data control.
My second question, when deploying to a client site, do these details need to be updated each time (ie, there will be specific addresses for each environment?
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks

Urgent!!! Need help with ADF 11g app deployment

Hi,
My application is designed using ADF 11g and am using adfc-config.xml for page flow.
Through Jdev 11g integrated WLS server the application is running smoothly.
But when i deployed application using EAR file on WLS 11g server and accessed the appliction, the page flow didnt worked.
That is i tried opening login page of my application, it opened. Then i provided login credentials , they were successfully validated.
But after that the application home page did not apperaed and application stuck at Login page only. The page flow didnt worked.
Please help on this, its urgent...
Thanks n Regards
Manav Ratra

Thanks Timo/Arun,
The problem was same as figured by you. :)
The application is running smoothly in IE7 but in Mozilla 3.0.15 it is not running.
There it is throwing error:
Error 404--Not Found
From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:
+10.4.5 404 Not Found+
The server has not found anything matching the Request-URI. No indication is given of whether the condition is temporary or permanent.
If the server does not wish to make this information available to the client, the status code 403 (Forbidden) can be used instead. The 410 (Gone) status code SHOULD be used if the server knows, through some internally configurable mechanism, that an old resource is permanently unavailable and has no forwarding address.
Any pointers to this ...

AD Integration with UCM 11g - Selecting users from multiple OU

Hi All,
I have integrated AD with UCM 11g and able to login with AD username/password to UCM application.
The one problem I face, the users of this application are scattered in different OUs in AD. Like OUs are created for different locations and users are present in that OU. I'm unable to select all the users of this application from different OU's.
Like the users are present in below OUs.
OU=Users,OU=America,DC=compnay,DC=net
OU=Users,OU=Canada,DC=compnay,DC=net
In User Base DN - What should i give? When i give any one of the above I get the users properly.
Also is it possible to select users by querying a security group in AD and getting all the members (Users) of it. Because in our application we have only three roles (mapped to the corresponding three security group in AD), and all users of this application are assigned one of that role. So, I could get all the users by querying the security group. But I do not know if that is possible.
Please advise.
Kind Regards,
Selvam S

Hi Selvam,
Just put User Base DN: DC=compnay,DC=net
This will pull all users from both OU, along with some unwanted entries like computers on the domain. Another, possibly silly proposal, would be to create two Ldap authenticators with different User Base DN. Both should be on the top of authenticators list with Sufficient flags.

Boris
