It might also be useful to understand your reasons behind this. We don't specifically advocate migration of Forms to Java but there are some cases where it is required and in this case there are some partners. Read

  • Converting oracle forms into java forms

    Hi all,,
    would help me plz on how to convert oracle forms into java using any tool;
    Is Jheadstart is the tool,, im having jeveloper version 10.1.2.1.0

    There are at least two companies that are marketing Forms to Java conversion tools. I'm sure that a good Google search will locate them, and they are frequent exhibitors at Oracle-oriented conferences like Collaborate and ODTUG Kaleidoscope. But there are problems associated with doing this. I urge anyone who is considering such a project to read this article by Grant Ronald: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/pdf/10gR2/formsmigration.pdf
    You should carefully ask yourself and your clients and management, "Why do you want to do this?", "What benefits are you trying to realize?", "Does this make sense, and are there other options that we should be exploring?"
    For instance, many people are trying to protect themselves because "Forms is going away". Oracle has stated again and again that Forms is NOT going away. In fact the recent Fusion Middleware 11g release included a new version of Forms with some significant enhancements. You may do very well just by upgrading to the latest version of Forms.
    If you do decide that it still makes sense to convert, I suggest that rather that converting, you may want to redevelop from scratch. Keep the database if it is well designed - a well designed, stable database will outlast any front end that you may use against it. Then take full advantage of the capabilities of your new toolset, and leave behind the limitations and inapplicable methodologies of your old one. Oh, by the way, don't use JDeveloper 10.1.2. Use 11g if you can, or 10.1.3.5 if you must.

  • Convert Oracle Forms into Java (swing & JSP's)

    Dear All,
    We are currently in the process of evaluating our upgrade of system, which is using forms 4.5. One of the options we are considering at this stage is converting all forms into Java program. I am currently doing some pilot work on this project. I am using FormsWizard, a product of InformatikAtelier Gmbh, along with Forms 6i and Jdeveloper 9i. Has any one done this before in this group? Your assistance is much appreciated.
    Regards

    Grant, Thanks for that mail. It was very useful article. The article has lots of brilliant points consider. I may have to discuss with our System Architect. With my experience in both forms and Java, it is hard to justify the business benefit out of this conversion. We are a strong Oracle house and have no intention of moving towards J2EE at this stage.. Thanks once again.

  • How to create table in interactive form via Java Web Dynpro

    Hi,
    How to create table in interactive form via Java Web Dynpro ?
    Any online tutorial / example ?
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    Eric

    Hi Eric,
    Just choose the UI element Table from Form Library and drag and drop it on the form. now choose the no. of rows and columns and other settings you want about table from the wizard initiated through this process. This all is what you have to do to create the table. Now to bind it to the fields of the data source bind the individual colums to individual attributes of the node in the datasource.
    Hope it will solve your query.

  • Calling BIP from Oracle Forms: Having Java version problem.

    <h3>
    Hi,
    I tried to call a BIP report through Oracle Forms.
    I followed this PDF.
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/xml-publisher/docs/Forms_BIP_v22.pdf
    Problem is, when I run the form, I get this error (copied from the Java Console)
    Oracle JInitiator: Version 1.3.1.22

    I am using Forms Forms [32 Bit] Version 10.1.2.0.2.
    JDeveloper Version is 10.1.3.5.0.
    The Forms 10g Java version is 1.4.
    So according to what I discovered on the net, the problem is: My JInitiator is 1.3 using JRE 1.3, BUT my .JAR file is Java 1.5.
    Since we are using the Oracle JVM, ticking “Use JRE 1.5..” in the Advanced tab of the Internet Explorer Options has no effect.
    We cannot upgrade the Oracle JInitiator to a 1.5 since there is no such JInitiator version. JInitiator is available only up to 1.3.1.30.
    What can I do. What if I install Java 1.3 in my machine and re-compile my JAR file with that? Will that work or is there another solution?
    Has anybody encountered this problem?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks & Regards,
    C.S.
    </h3>

    Hi,
    Yes, you need to compile your source files with JDK 1.3 (since JInit 1.3.x.x uses JDK 1.3).
    Other solution would be to use JRE 1.5 (instead of JInitiator).

  • Can we call a workflow form a JSP and/or form a Java Class?

    Is it possible to call a workflow form a JSP and/or form a Java Class?

    Below is some xpress code I wrote once, used to dynamically lauch workflows from within a workflow. Since it basically uses java classes, you reuse these in your java program or jsp:
    - create a new generic object
    - call the setId, put, ... methods on it
    - set the input variables for the workflow by putting them into the generic object
    - call the checkinView method on a LighthouseContext object which launches your workflow.
    If all you need is starting a workflow from a jsp, you might also want to take a look at the tasks/taskLaunch.jsp jsp. This is an out of the box jsp which allows launching of tasks. If I remember correctly you have to give an url parameter which specificies the name of task you want to start: tasks/taskLaunch.jsp?id=<workflow-name>

  • Invoking XI Scenario form WD Java

    Hi,
    As I mentioned, discuss it with ABAP guys , they knows the object to work open like RFC creation and exposing its interfaces.
    from Portal side you have to create JCO system which point to that XI system and use that RFC in your WD application. that RFC will have some input /output parameter (depands oin your functionality ).

  • Java conversion for xkwert like komv-kwert ABAP filed

    Hi all,
    I am in process of converting the ABAP routines present in ECC into user exists in CRM.
    I am stuck up at a point wherein i am unable to find the java conversion for xkwert like komv-kwert abap field. If anyone has an idea on what exactly is the java conversion for the above field then please reply.
    Thanks In Advance,

    vipin,
    I think this is condition value(komv-kwert ) , to get the condition value you can use the following method in java.
    pricingConditon.getConditionValue().

    Hi
    You dont need JInitiator, just downloading and installing either JRE or JDK 1.5 will be enough.
    Another option might be to set the version you want to compile your classes against in JDeveloper. there is a setting in there to specify the java version you want to compile against.
    So are you using the web services from BIP inside Forms?

    Applies to: Oracle Server - Enterprise Edition - Version: 10.2.0.1
    SymptomsWhile installing Oracle10gR2 on a Solaris 10 x86-64 server, Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) reports the following errors while checking the kernel parameters:
    shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=4294967295 found no entry . Failed <<

    The overall results of this check is Failed.
    The kernel parameters do not meet the minimum requirements
    CauseOUI is looking at /etc/system to check the kernel parameter settings, but this file is not used (by default) in Solaris 10
    OUI should check the kernel parameter settings using the resource control utility ( /bin/prctl )
    SolutionTo implement the solution, please execute one the following steps:
    1. Verify that the kernel parameter settings are correct using the resource control utility ( /bin/prctl ) and then start OUI like this:
    ./runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqs
    OR
    2. Include the recommended kernel parameter settings in the /etc/system file and start OUI as normal:

  • How can I make Edit/Default Customization form with Java ?

    In previous portal relise developers have simple way to rendering Edit/Default Customization form:
    <% PortletRendererUtil.renderCustomizeFormHeader(portletRequest, out, null, "services_action", null, null); %>
    <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="2">
    <TR>

    </TR>
    </TABLE>
    <% PortletRendererUtil.renderCustomizeFormFooter(portletRequest, out); %>
    In current portal version I can not find these methods, these methods not exists in JavaDoc and in jar's. And all old code do not works!!! Why?
    I must hide portlet borders and use <renderContainer>false</renderContainer> in provider.xml. Then portal do not render Edit/Default Customization form in Edit/Default mode. In previous relise I can make this form with Java code.
    My question: how I can get Edit/Default Customization form in Edit/Default mode with Java code?

    Hi George, the trick is to figure out which browser is your default now, and remove that designation using the Android settings for Apps. It might be Chrome or it might be something Samsung provides.
    This article has more information: [[Make Firefox the default browser on Android]].
    Does it work?
