Forms 5 to jdeveloper

need some guidance to convert my current application under forms 5 to jdeveloper.

While I haven't personally performed a migration, take a look at one of our partners, Informatik Atelier, that offers a migration tool. See http://otn.oracle.com/products/jdev/htdocs/partners/content.html#f2j.
Our most recent production version is Oracle9i JDeveloper 9.0.2, which I highly recommend because of the many new features and support of J2EE.

How To create ADF Search form in JDeveloper 11g 11.1.1.0.1

Hi,
I am using JDeveloper 11g 11.1.1.0.1 , in which i tried creating an ADF search form that has Find and Execute Buttons.
I created the same ADF search form using JDeveloper 11g TP3 and TP4 wherein it works fine but not in JDeveloper 11g 11.1.1.0.1.
Scenario....
I dragged a read only view object on to the jspx page as ADF Search Form and dragged the same as Read only table.
After doing this if i run the application the search functionality does not happen .
( I click on the find button and enter the condition and then click on the execute button. records does not get filtered based on that condition specified.)
But when the same steps is done in 11g TP3 and TP4 the search functionalty works fine.
Can someone suggest me what is the issue.
Is this a bug in the new release.
regards
vinitha

First one is simple
1. I am using the "Build Rich Client Forms in JDeveloper using ADF swing .. Tutorial "
when i select New Application , I cant see Java Application Swing ADF BC value from the application Temp in drop down ?? What am i misssing .???
The second issue is bit complex I am doing the Tutorial SRDemo
I am doing on page 2 14 of Tutorial creating EJBS Session Beans when Running the Wizard I dont see
Generate Session Facade
Entity Implementation
Options, subsequently the screen shot on next page does which has all the methods are not appearing.
Also when adding code (2-16) in SPPublic FacadeBean Iam getting snytax error for
(clearly related to above issue), I have no choice but to redo the tutorial from begin
but should I change something before I do that ?
public ServiceRequests createServiceRequests
(String problemDescription, Integer productId, Integer createdBy)
{ UnitOfWork uow = getSessionFactory().acquireUnitOfWork();
ServiceRequests newInstance = (ServiceRequests)uow.newInstance(ServiceRequests.class);
Products product = (Products)uow.executeQuery("findProductById", Products.class, productId);
Users user = (Users)uow.executeQuery("findUserById", Users.class, createdBy);
product.addServiceRequests(newInstance);
user.addCreatedBy(newInstance);
newInstance.setStatus(null);
newInstance.setRequestDate(null);
newInstance.setProblemDescription(problemDescription);
uow.commit(); return newInstance; }
==============
Other than that in previous steps I came across a few interesting Scenarios
While following the step by steps operation of Tutorial I see on 2 6 when I was adding code to manage Default Value while I was doing the code adding
public Integer getNextLineItem() {
int maxLineNo = 0;
for (ServiceHistories svh:getServiceRequests().getServiceHistoriesCollection()){
if (svh.getLineNo() !=null) {
int testLineNo = svh.getLineNo().intValue();
if (testLineNo > maxLineNo){
maxLineNo = testLineNo;
return ++maxLineNo;
for (ServiceHistories svh:getServiceRequests().getServiceHistoriesCollection()){
I kept on getting the compile error for type casting, which when I tried to compare the source provided at the end of the chapter I found the type cast generated by Jbuilder was missing
public List <ServiceHistories> getServiceHistoriesCollection() {
return this.serviceHistoriesCollection;
2.Another interesting thing I came across was by default the wizrd created the names of these variables and there corresponding getter and setter methods as user1 and user2, which lead to some confusion while doing Named query section on 2 9 (Once again I took care of the problem by doing File comparison with the )
private ValueHolderInterface createdBy;
private ValueHolderInterface assignedTo;
3. Also by default on 2 - 12 When I was Creating Top link Session, I didnt get any session.xml file. ( tutorial presumed I will get one by default )
4. Last is it normal to get Warning when getting report for POJO mapping for some of the Tables

'Generate Web Service Stub/Skeleton' option in 10.1.2, was replaced by 'Generate Web Service Proxy' in 10.1.3

Converton of oracle 9i forms using JDeveloper

Can we convert an oracle 9i forms using jdeveloper?

The links point to my blog and product (OraFormsFaces). The poster is right that OraFormsFaces is a licensed product.
It is a library consisting of a number of components:
* extensions to Oracle Forms adding a JavaScript API to Oracle Forms
* a number of JSF component allowing you to embed an Oracle Form in a JSF page, and pass parameters and raise events from Forms to JSF and in the other direction
* extensions to the Forms applet allowing for a single Forms applet to be reused during your entire web session. Normally each web page embedding Oracle Forms would start a new applet, which is prevented by OraFormsFaces using a single applet for the entire session
* optional visual integration of Oracle Forms in the JSF page that can blend the form into the page, removing the title bar, menu bar, tool bar, status bar, and other chrome
* supporting PLL libraries to bring the OraFormsFaces functions to Forms PL/SQL
To get an overview of the product and some viewlets demonstrating JSF/Forms integration, please visit http://www.commit-consulting.com/oraformsfaces/
I personally feel that OraFormsFaces could be the missing link for Oracle Forms users wanting to go forward. Many Forms users want to use JSF or other web technologies for new developments but they don't want to be forced into a time consuming and expensive rebuild of their Forms application in web technology. OraFormsFaces allows you to create hybrid systems consisting of new JSF pages and existing Oracle Forms while both can pass parameters and events to the other. This gives the end user and integrated application without a need for development to do a major rebuild/rearchitect.

Migrating Developer Forms to JDeveloper

I was given to understand that using the Wizard available in JDeveloper, one can migrate Developer Forms to JDeveloper.
Is this possible?. If so and anyone has done it, please let me know how to proceed.
Thanks

Meanwhile, our FormsWizard has matured to a tightly integrated
plug-in to JDeveloper.
The Wizard allows you to transform your fmb/mmb files to Java-
based applications. Apart from the data model, which is indeed
transformed to BC4J components, the Wizard also translates the
GUI to a Swing-based application or a JSP front-end.
PL/SQL code is also translated, although there are certain
limitations.

Install correct versions of Forms (etc), Jdeveloper and Weblogic

Hello,
We are upgrading from forms 10g. We want to be able to upgrade to the most recent (or almost most recent) versions of Forms, but we also want Jdeveloper.
I know from experience that you need the proper version of jdeveloper to go with the proper version of Weblogic, so knowing which version of all three is necessary.
It looks like we can download newer versions of Forms, Jdeveloper and Weblogic separately, or we could install the Oracle Fusion Middleware suite 11.1.1.7.0 which contains SOA (I would love to move to that), but that contains older versions of Forms and Jdeveloper.
I have trudged through Oracle documentation and the like, but found no real satisfactory information about downloading each separately. Could anyone help me with suggestions about which versions go with which?
Thank you,
Stuart

As far as I know, JDeveloper is provided as a stand-alone download and has an embedded WLS used for testing. The JDeveloper installation must go into its own Middleware Home and not into, for example the one where Forms/Reports (or any other) lives.
As for deploying your completed applications, you can either do this into another WLS installation or the one used by Forms/Reports. However, creating a new WLS domain is recommended and may be required (check the product documentation or contact Support for more information).
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/jdev/documentation/index.html
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E38115_01/index.htm
If you decided to go with FMw PFRD 11.1.1.x, this does include a slightly older Forms/Reports version, but has nothing to do with JDeveloper. You can still use your choice of JDev give what I said above - the JDev installation must go into its own Middleware Home (e.g. Middleware2).
There is one gotcha I can think of.... Jdeveloper can easily use Java 7. Be careful not to develop something in JDev using Java 7 then deploy it into your PFRD or F/R environment which uses Java 6 by default.

Search Form in Jdeveloper 10.1.3

Can any body help me how to create search from in Jdeveloper 10.1.3?
Because I found search form in 11g by using view criteria, but this is not available in 10.1.3 version
Thank you

Correct, there's no such component in 10.1.3.
Instead look to the ExecuteWithParams option in the 10.1.3 Fusion Dev Guide.

Auto-Generate Task Form in Jdeveloper 11.1.1.4.0

Greetings!
I am studying SOA Suite from some books like "WS-BPEL 2.0 for SOA Composite Applications with Oracle SOA Suite 11g" and "Getting Started with Oracle SOA Suite 11g R1 – A Hands-On Tutorial". These books say that in order to generate a task form using a human task in Bpel you have to right click the human task and should appear a menu option called "Auto-generate Task Form" however this option doesn't show up in my Jdeveloper. Anybody kwnows why?
I am using Jdeveloper 11.1.1.4 with SOA Composite Editor 11.1.1.4.0.56.82.
My platform is Windows 7 Professional 64 bits.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks!
Ramiro Ortiz

Hi Ramiro
In JDeveloper, on left side, in Application Navigator tab, select and double clikck your .task file. On right side, in the central window, you will see that Task Details in different tabs. Like on right side, you will see General, Data like. On right side, at the TOP of the central window, there will be a drop down box. Just click on that drop down box, you should see an option like Create or Generate Form something like that. You select that, and it will open a dialog to select a new Project. There give a new Project Name instead of selecting the existing project. Enter the new project name and it will generate the taskDetails.jsp with all other files in that new project.
If you do not see this option to auto generate form, in the central window. Since you already created human task, I am assuming you updated your JDeveloper with 2 Plugins from help -> Update menu like for SOA Composite Editor and BPM Editor (BPM Only if you want BPM specific stuff).
Thanks

Forms vs jdeveloper

Dear All,
I am preparing one project plan for web-based system. From Oracle i think i have two options
1. Make it in FORM 9i ,This option is suitable for us because we have good resources of FORM developers
OR
2. Develop this in JDeveloper.
I want to know which option is better for CLIENT (not for us). If possible give me advantages and disadvantages of both options with one recommendation
thanks in advance

Ainar,
weighting one versus the other is worth a book! As Andrew pointed out, there are many dependencies going along with it.
In the past Forms was all you had and you built everything with it not asking for the sense of it. So if the only tool you have is a hammer, wouldn't all problems look like nails?
Forms does a lot of things for you - like the transaction handling that comes out of the box - for a price, that is the memory footprint on the server and the download size for the Applet.
If you are not yet a skilled Java developer, then the price for using J2EE is the learnimng curve to take with all the trials and errors included that slow down your project.
So my recommendation is to look at the business problem to solve:
Ask yourself if the application requires intensive data input and what the user expectation for the UI is.
Identify the time a user spends with the application. if its kind of a "touch-and-go" self service application, Forms may be a bit to oversized for it and HTML as an interface is better suited.
Evaluate time to market of your application to build and weight it against the skill set you have in your company.
A >new< by document Grant gives you an example of what you can do with Forms if you use J2EE to extend it instead of replacing (which is an option too)
http://otn.oracle.com/products/forms/pdf/formsj2ee_business.pdf
While using J2EE in conjunction with Forms you get keep your business running hwile teaching yourself new tricks.
Frank
Ps.: Forms is not going away.

There are multiple options
Human tasks are compiled into .ear files.
1. take .ear file (generated after compiling your project) and deploy using EM console
2. you can use admin_client utility (which comes with installation) to deploy human task .ear file
3. even you can use ant to deploy
Thanks,

Error when run the form from jdeveloper

Dear All ,
I am a beginner i OA framework and i run the hello world page from jdeveloper but it gave me the following error
"You have encountered an unexpected error. Please contact the System Administrator for assistance. "
what should i do to solve this problem ??

You can get that error for a mulititude of reasons...are you sure you've set up the environment for J-Developer correctly? Is your HOME set correctly? Are you running the correct version of the tool? Is the database connection correct? Did you test it? Do you have the correct Application connection? Do you have an APPS login to the correct responsibility? Does that work? Are you using the correct responsibility key? The list just goes on and on and on.

Updating database via form in Jdeveloper

I have an updatable form and a submit button in my jspx page. When I open the page in firefox it gives me the form and i can make changes to the data in the fields. When i click the submit button, it acts like it saved the changes, that is the page form shows the changes but when I go to check in the database everything is the same, and when i turn off firefox and run the page again, it loses the changes.
Any ideas?

Yeh thanks for the replies guys
I am using ADF and there is no code behind the submit button except the one that is automatically generated, when I drop the view into the page i click the create submit button option.
As for the commit button, I tried that, but it will not pop up if you will. It just stands there and cannot be pressed, whitened out and stuff no matter what i change. So any other suggestions?
