Forms Runtime Behavior

Dear All forum Members,
I am very new to ORACLE FORMS 9i. Whenever we run the form it shows the typical ORACLE Logo on the left hand side and the typical MENU on the upper portion of the Forms. I want to change this kind of interface. For example when we run the ORACLE 9i FORMS DEMO, there is nothing like this. Most of the forms demos are displayed as a typical JSP or ASP dynamic web page. How can i achieve such kind of behavior for my personal developed forms. Please help me regarding this.
Thanks in advance
Best Regards
Zeeshan Suria

Hi,
The Forms9i demos are all running with usesdi=yes parameter which suppresses the MDI window. The Forms9i logo can be controlled by the "logo" parameter in the formsweb.cfg file. Just from teh top of my head logo= no or logo=false should switch it off completely. You can put your own logo in by specifying a gif image that is accessible for Forms .
Esample setting in formsweb.cfg
[myApp]
form=my.fmx
logo=no
otherparams=usesdi=yes
Call the app by
http://<server>:<port>/forms90/f90servlet?config=myApp
Ps.: The next version of "WebUtil" will have a functionality that also hides menus in MDI windows

Forms runtime exit

i developed an application using oracle 8 and developer 6. now i create new tables in oracle 9 and try to open the application in developer 6 but when i run the forms it open the runtime form maximize the window and exit without any prompt how i fix this problem

Hi all,
Has anybody experienced that while running some forms created using Forms 6i, while running these forms, they sometimes exit without any warning or errors. When these forms are recompiled, they generally work again. There seems to be no logical reason why these forms exit without any warning.
If anybody has encountered the same behavior with Forms 6i, then please let me know what the solution for the same is.
Thanks

See runform log file. You will find a memory violation error.
Try to recompile the forms
or
try to move the forms to another computer
or
reinstall Windows.
Sometimes works!
I suspect a bug in Forms Runtime which apears is some Windows configurations: all those forms run fine in Debugger.

Form Runtime

Hi,
What is the best way to connect to the database schema automatively when the form is in run time.
Example:
When you close the form builder or run the form in form runtime, it always prompts you for the database schema. What is the best way to solve this problem, because my form will deploy into the web server, I don't want the user to enter the database schema. Please advise.
Thank you very much

With Forms 5.0 I use the following shortcut in Windows:
D:\ORANT\BIN\F50RUN32.EXE g:\centrala\tlogin_noi_cen USERID=login/login@apollo usesdi=yes
Still, beware!
This way you give the luser the username & password. Yet, for this application, there is a trick so that I don't reveal the username & password of the owner of the application object schema (the login user is a dumb user that can only execute some stored procs that do logon to the application schema if they are given the right params for username & password). Back scenes I use the logon & logout built-ins.
Hope this helps,

HST6i, Client/Server env. Forms runtime crash!

We successfuly instaled HSD6i on Forms Server. But we also need to run forms on client/server environment.
When I start HSU or generated app. in Forms Runtime (ver 6.0.8.11.3) and do nothing other than navigate from menu to form 'Users' for example, form opens but the very
next time whole runtime environment dissaper (crash with no error message).
How can I manage this problem?

I changed all 'automatic' to <unspecified> but my forms are still crashing with access violation at uiw60.dll. It seems that only forms with item groups though. I also found another posting here by Ivica Coric about "Problem with Item Groups" where people mentioned forms with item groups would crash. It seems that this is my problem. But changing 'automatic' to something else still doesn't solve my problem. Any ideas? Thanks.
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Originally posted by Headstart Team:
Uros,
I have discovered what makes this happen. As you have read in the the install guide, you need to change a number of properties in the object library. Specifically, the color "Automatic", which is very useful in webforms, is problematic on client/server.
Because most items in the generated forms subclass from the object library, you would ideally only need to recreate the fmx files and be rid of the "Automatics".
Unfortunately, there's one place where the generator uses the object library properties, but DOES NOT SUBCLASS BUT COPIES these properties into the generated forms. This happens with boilerplate graphics that result from item group decorations, and then only when the item group decoration has a prompt! Here the color of the CG$TITLE visual attribute is used, but not subclassed. This also explains why you solved it by regenerating the problematic forms.
To solve this for the applications you cannot regenerate, open the fmbs, navigate to the Canvas, and then to the Graphics. You'll find the culprit there soon enough.
Kind regards,

How can I attach any type of file in forms runtime

Hi Friends,
I need some help from any one of you.
Is there any possibility to attach any type of file in forms runtime?
If there is, how can. Please let me know the code.
Thanks

I think that you are going to have to explain what you want to do more clearly...

There is no validate form server behavior built into
Dreamweaver. Perhaps you'rr looking for the Validate Form in the
*Behaviors* (not Server behaviors) panel?

Forms runtime as cartridge?

In a document from July 1997 from Oracle called "Developer/2000
and the NCA: An Architectural Overview", authors Mark Doran et
al, the future direction of the Forms Runtime was stated to be:
In a release after 2.0, the Forms Runtime will be implemented
as a cartridge. The Web Application Server will invoke a
Forms cartrige directly to run a Forms application, elim-
inating the ned for a separate Listener process and Runtime
processes. In this configuration, the Forms cartridge will
be able to exploit all of the functionality of the Web
Application Server, including Inter-Cartridge Exchange
(ICX) and dynamic load balancing.
Initially, each instance of the Cartridge will handle a single
connected user, just as the Forms Runtime does today, but
in later versions a single cartridge will be able to serve
multiple simultaneous users for even greater scalability.
I have two questions:
a) is this still the intended direction of the Forms Runtime?
(I couldn't find this repeated in later documents)
b) if so, which release will/does have this feature?
I have scoured all the promotional documentation for OAS 4.0
and Developer 6.0 looking for an answer, but could not find
any.
The reasons I care are that 1) our client will continue to grow,
and the scalability improvement is interesting, and 2) if
you can use Inter-Cartridge Exchange to (I think) access
real CORBA objects which live in a custom-built application
cartridge that lives in OAS 4.0. From Forms, you have to
use Forms-specific syntax to access functions, and you
can't access objects directly.
null

I agree.
I've tested my application using Dev2.1 to find out that each
user was going to take up around 10M.
We have a user base of about 300, but usually theres only about
80 users on during our busiest time. 80Users * 10M = 800M.
Thats not even counting the memeory needed for the reports
server.
But to be fair OAS load balancing did cut down on apps which
were inactive.
But this still leaves me with the prospect of at least a 512M
apps server. Which might be incredibly slow during peak times.
So I started looking towards the OAS4.0 release which had this
promised shared cartridge architecture. But it looks as if we
are going to have to upgrade to Dev6.0 to use this cartridge
architecture.
What happened to Dev2.1?
I received the Dev6.0 beta CD, and was imressed by OAS4.0.
Should we just skip the Dev2.1 / OAS3.0 or are there going to be
further releases of Dev2.x supporting OAS4.0?

Forms runtime info. - URGENT-

I have an application developed in Forms 6. I have the following questions.
1. Should the end user purchase forms 6 to run the application?
2. If no, can he get forms runtime along with Oracle 9i, which can run the application?
3. Is Forms 6 runtime alone available to be purchased?
Please help me out at the earliest.
Thanks
Raghu

If we are talking about a client server application then the Forms runtime is for free and you don't need to buy it for the customer. The latest patches will make your forms work with an Oracle9i database. There is no separate packaging of the runtime, you can install just the runtime if you choose the custom install option from the CD that includes Forms.

Oracle Form Runtime (bug)

Hi guys..
I have created an application composed by 5/6 forms. I created a .BAT file that launches the main MENU form, that has all the related buttons wich call the other modules of the application. NOw the issue is the seguent, if I install the forms on the local machine I have no problems at all. But instead, if I install them on a server pc, I begin having very strange problems. For example, my main MENU forms gets launched without any issues, I press the first button on the main menu and my application starts, if I exit and then press another button, it literally EXPLODES. The forms runtime crashes and creates a DUMP file. Now the strange thing is that it doens't do it on every PC.
Do you guys know anything about this ?

Could it be that you have lot of other programs running in the server so there is not enough memory to run forms.
Just curious, why are you using a combination of version 5 and version 6 forms?
From your main form, are you calling both version 5 and version 6 fmx files?

Forms Runtime Version

Hello to all of you !
Our application runs with Forms 6i in only client/server mode (no web forms) on several ms windows platforms (W95, W2K, WNT).
Is there a way to get to know the runtime version which executes the current form ? I need this information because in our environment there might be forms runtime client installations with a different patchset level than the compiled fmx-files. This sometimes leads to some strange errors.
And please, it does not make sense to read the registry because in some environments the application is started within the Novell Application Launcher (NAL) which creates a runtime environment at the moment you start the application.
Thanks in advance
Kai Ramming

Just in case someone else wants to know about this : I read in Metalink that there is an undocumented command.
get_application_property(version) returns a varchar2 containing the runtime version of ifrun60.exe which is executing the current form.

Hi,
Try to clean up your browser's cache (msie: tools > options > ...) and oracle jinitiator's jcache directory (c:\proghram files\oracle\jinit ... ). Close your browser and try again.

Window "Developer Forms Runtime-Web". Help me, please.

I have instaled Developer Server 6.0 (Unix).
When I'm runing my application in the browser of PC (jinitiator 1.1.7.18), apears the window "Developer Forms Runtime-Web".
Is it possible that this window no display?

I am not positive that I know what you are refering to but I think you are talking about the splash screen that comes up before you see your form. You can suppress this screen by setting the splashScreen parameter in you html file to NO. i.e. Assuming you are using IE, <PARAM NAME="splashScreen" VALUE="no">.
