APEX equivalent of Java Static Initialization Block

Is there a APEX equivalent of Java static init block (i.e. execute once at class load time)? My use case is that I need to load some configuration values to an environment (i.e. APEX Workspace) specific variables and don't want to do per user session since the values remain the same for all user sessions. I believe SYS_CONTEXT is tied to user session and would not be useful for my usecase. Any advise would be appreciated.

Equivalent of java.sql.ResultSetMetaData

Hi,
I'm looking for something which is equivalent to java.sql.ResultSetMetaData in Toplink. Does anyone know how this can be done ?

Hi,
I have a similar problem. I want to find out the column names when i fire raw-sql. I use SQLCall to do this.
Then I get a Vector<DatabaseRow>.
Vector vDR = session.executeQuery( new SQLCall( "select * from table_name" ) )
Now Is there a way to find out the column names dynamically. In the javadocs i see that objDatabaseRow.keys() returns an Enum<DatabaseField>... but i cant see javadocs on how to use DatabaseField.
So is there any other way ?
Thanks,

Can we define a complex type that is equivalent to java.util.List?

hi everyone
is it possible to define a complexType that is equivalent to java.util.List? all i know now is how to define an array of some type using either <xs:list> for simpleType or the minOccurs and maxOccurs of the element tag. i was wondering if there is way to define something equivalent to a List in java. thanks

Define a sequence of list tems.
<xs:element name="list">
    <xs:complexType>
      <xs:sequence>
        <xs:element name="item" maxOccurs="unbounded" type="xs:string"/>
      </xs:sequence>
    </xs:complexType>

Re: Forte Express Question

I tend to agree with Chris Kelly's earlier posting that
the problem is not with date, but rather with the other
fields. Forte takes care of date format that Oracle can
understand.
Oracle's will allow year entry of between -4713 and +4713.
Forte chose October 1582 as the zero date because it
represents the beginning of the modern calendar as we
know it, called the Gregorian Calendar.
Some interesting reading follows...
From http://www.sprinc.com/marktime.htm
Imagine that for an entire year you were twelve minutes
early for your appointments. This would be a good thing right?
Aren't we told to be early for our appointments -- that it is
courteous to be early and usually unacceptable to be late?
Well, if we agree on these things, then why on Earth would the
twelve minutes between the old Julian Calendar and the New Style
Gregorian Calendar be such a big deal? The answer lies in time
itself. You see, those twelve minutes accumulated over the years,
decades, and centuries so that by the 1500's the Julian Calendar
had raced ahead of the Sun by ten days!
In October, 1582 Pope Gregory XIII implemented the following
changes to the old Julian Calendar:
- New Year's day changed from March 25 to January 1.
- The calendar advanced by 10 days, making the day after Oct 4,
1582 into Oct 15, 1582.
- Updated and refined Leap Year rules:
1.Years evenly divisible by four are to be
considered Leap Years.
2.Century years (double 00) must be evenly divisible by
400 (2000 is a leap year).
3.The years 4000, 8000, and 12000 are considered to be
"common years" (not leap years).
4.Century years divisible by 900 will be leap years only
if the remainder is 200 or 600 (2000 is a leap year).
The changes above make the calendar accurate to 1 day in 44,000 years.

You and I spoke briefly about this problem early last week, but now that
I see the actual error message printed out in your posting here, I think
I see where your difficulties are coming from. Take a look at the
actual date values that you are attempting to insert into your Oracle
table (about 10-15 lines up from the bottom of your error message
above). "14-Oct-1582 19:00:00." When you create a DateTimeData object
in Forte and do not assign a value to it, this is the value that it is
given by default. Pretty much all systems have some date that they
consider to be the beginning of time - apparently Forte chose
mid-October, 1582. My suspicion is that 1582 is before the dawn of
Oracle time, and thus Oracle rejects the attempted insert. I didn't
think of it when we last spoke, but I have seen this exact problem
before with Microsoft SQL Server - 1582 is too early a date for it to
recognize. Try going into SQL*Plus and doing an insert with the 14 Oct,
1582 date and see what happens.
Hope this helps!
Dale

Oracle was perfectly happy with Oct 14, 1582 as a date, and even when I
got the format wrong, I never saw the "value larger than specified
precision" error that Dan Elias was seeing. Thus, it probably IS one of
the other fields causing the problem. My db experience has primarily
been Microsoft SQL Server, where 1582 is NOT a valid date.
Forte chose October 1582 as the zero date because it
represents the beginning of the modern calendar as we
know it, called the Gregorian Calendar.
Some interesting reading follows...And thanks for the interesting facts! I was vaguely aware of some of
it, but didn't know the exact date, for one thing.

Can Forte' IIOP Client catch Java exceptions?

Hi all,
we are using Forte' IIOP features in IDL Mode, to integrate a Forte' client
and a Java server.
Our configuration is:
- java jdk 1.1.5
- Visigenic VIsibroker 3.1 for Java ORB
- Forte' 3.0.G
Is it possible for the Forte' client to catch a Java exception?
We tried to define an IDL file based on our Java server:
module querye
interface QueryClass
exception MiaSQLException{};
string EseguiQuery(in string query_string) raises
(MiaSQLException);
Using forte' corbagen utility we generated the forte' .pex file:
begin TOOL querye;
forward QueryClass;
class QueryClass inherits from Framework.Object
class MiaSQLException inherits from FrameWork.GenericException
end class;
has public method EseguiQuery(
input query_string : string
) : string;
has property
distributed=(allow=on, override=on, default=on);
end class;
method QueryClass.EseguiQuery(
input query_string : string
) : string
begin
end method;
end querye;
We we tried to import the .pex file in the forte' repository, forte' raise
a Syntax Error.
Any idea?
TIA

I am trying to get Forte to communicate with Orbix (not the web
version) via IIOP. Right now I am trying to set up an Orbix C++
server with Forte being the client. Eventually I will need to
communicate the other way (Forte being the server -- I need to do
both). Right now I cannot get Forte to connect to the server. Any
suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Dale Boan
Details
I am running Forte on an NT machine and the Orbix server under HP-UX.
Under NT, I am using Forte 3.0.F.2 with IIOP enabled (I think - it
shows up in the partition GUI).Which version of Orbix are you using? I believe 2.3c is required. At least I
know that Forte has successfully called Orbix services using 2.3c.

ReDim equivalent in Java

Hello,
What's the equivalent in Java of 'Redim '?
e.g Redim RedBucket(0)(0)
is it an ArrayList
Thanks
Paul

ReDim is like ArrayList in the same way that a wheelbarrow is like a pickup truck.
With ReDim, you have to specify the size of the array at the beginning, and then you have to decide when the size needs to be changed, and you have to decide what to change it to. With ArrayList, you don't have to do any of that. You just say "Gimme an ArrayList" and it figures out how much array space it needs by itself.
But really, you're better off just learning Java. You won't want to speak Java with a VB accent.

The reverse engineering for SQL Server is possible as long as the owner of
the table is not DBO.
Create the tables as a non dbo user. I our case we actually had to set one

Hi David,
Below you say that the reverse engineering through ODBC is not
supported, then how is the reverse engineering achieved with SQL Server?
I assume most ODBC drivers are not capable but the one for SQL Server
is. Do you know of any other ODBC drivers that are capable of reverse
engineering a database?

Mike,
Forte Express will work with an ODBC database. However, the reverse
engineering feature of importing table schemas into the Express business
model is not supported with ODBC. So you need to follow the path of
creating your business model classes and filling in the attributes. Once
complete, you can generate an application to run against the ODBCdatabase.
If you have NT with native access to Oracle instead of ODBC, you would
be able to use the reverse engineering feature.
The message you received was attempting to start the reverse engineering
table browser.

Locking with Forte Express and Sybase

Hello,
We are developing a program in Forte Express with data in Sybase as
RDBMS. An other program (developed in Smalltalk) also uses this data in
Sybase. In our situation both the program in Smalltalk and in Forte
Express need to view and change the same data.
I think it is possible to use Forte's native locking. This actually
means using Sybase's locking features, but in our situation we currently
don't use Sybase's locking features. So using Forte's native locking is
not an option.
How do we guarantee that both the user of the Smalltalk program and the
user of the Forte Express program are able to view and change the
correct data? Does anybody also has the problem or (better) has a
solution for this?
I want to thank you in advance for any suggestions.

$ENV perl equivalent in Java

We are in our first steps in trying to convert some of our systems from Perl to Java.
In a module we had (Database module) which was responsible for all DB activity, we had an area where, upon errors, we printed out $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} environment variable, which is set by Apache and can be read by Perl. This helps us debug things by knowing which script was ran when a DB error occurred.
As we are porting the Database module into a Database class, we are trying to think how we can achieve the same capability with Java.
I don't know of the existence of $ENV equivalent in Java. Not one that contains the web-server executed script, in case its a script that is ran by a web server.
Is there?
Note that the Database module may be ran as part of a Servelet but may also be part of just a simple server script. In perl, is such case, the $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} would come out empty.
Any suggestions of how to do that?

Pidgin wrote:
As you indicated: Note that both are relatively slow and should only be used for exceptional or error conditions.
The access to the SCRIPT_NAME is actually a web re,ated variable that we need for showing which HTTP resquest generated the specific SQL error.It's only a variable in perl (or in CGI scripts, to be more precise).
It happens often enough, and doing a very low-level trace of the executed code migt not be the right option.SQLExceptions that need logging happen often? That shouldn't be the fact. How often?
Stacktraces are not awfully slow. They are ok for handling errors & exceptions. But they should not be used for classical flow control.
For example, it might be that the executing code is Script.class using Database.class, but Script.class can be initiated from www.whatever.com/script/ or www.whatever.com/premium/script/.. in each case, we want to know the full URL of the called "script'.With the stack trace you'd see the Servlet and/or Action that handles the request.
So we do need access to the web "environment".
What we do now, is store a static Servlet_Request variable (set on the first Database constructor, by passing the servlet request and response objects to the Database constructor). From that point on, we can access Servlet_Request.getRequestURI()That won't work as soon as more than one request is handled at the same time (which is very, very soon!).
You might want to look into something like log4js MDC, where you can at one point in your application set a key in a map and have that appear in every log statement from that thread until it's removed again.
This is quite different than the Perl logic, where we could access a "web enabled" System.getenv() and read from it SCRIPT_NAME or other web related parameters, if they existed (or returning null if they didn't)You should not try to apply the best practices learned by perl web programming 1:1 on Java. In the Java world pretty different concepts apply, especially when doing Web-Programming, as Perl web-applications are usually based on the rather antiquated CGI interface, while Java uses a central application server that handles each request as it wishes.

Forte Express - Transaction control

Hi
In our current model, the database automatically generates a key
for our objects when we insert them into the database (we are
using the Informix Serial type to do this - but it could be any
similar mechanism).
The problem we encounter is that within Forte Express, we want
to be able to create several related objects simultaneously and
then commit the whole thing in one transaction. However, the
objects reference eachother by their key and until the Insert
has been committed to the database, we don't know what the key is.
Has anyone encountered a similar problem?
Thank you,
Veronika Irvine

Yes, and for this reason we have decided against using Informix or Sybase
serial types. Oracle Sequences
are ok since you can prefetch them and, hence, "know" what they are before
and after your transaction.
For keys which are used in object traversals, we implement a table-based key
generation system. We have
a table with two columns, table-name and next-key. Each kind of key has a
row in this table, and we access the table in the following way: (I think it
is a pretty standard approach)
begin transaction
update keytable set nextkey = nextkey + 1 where tablename = :sometablename
select nextkey from keytable where tablename = :sometablename
end transaction
This ensures protection in a concurrent environment, and is a small enough
transaction to handle lots of
requests. Note the downside to this approach is that if the key isn't used
you will end up with "holes" in the key sequences.
Another technique you can try is to have a temporary key between the
objects. A timestamp to millisecond
resolution might serve you in this case.

Forte Express - Assocaion Between Entities of different Models

Hi Everyone
To my knowledge Forte Express doesn't have straightforward approach to establish relation between entities of various business models. Customization must be in-order to achieve the same.
It is possible to establish relations between sub-models of a business model
I have lack of knowledge about the latest versions of the Forte Express. I want to know if the latest version of the Forte Express provides any of the following:
1. Customize the source code generation to seperate a single business model to multiple projects. Each Sub-model of the Business model corresponds to a new project. If my Business Model has 3 Sub-models, I want 3 projects.
2. Allow establishing relations between entities of different Business Models while modelling itself.
Thanking you in advance

Forte Express Application performance

Greetings,
We are in the process of developing an application using Forte Express.
We have approx. 20 windows, each of which may have 4-5 folders or a nested array
window. The windows work in pairs. One window will show a brief version of
records in an array window. When we double-click on a row, we popup a detailed
version of the record which also has folders to show associations with this
record.
Our development is taking place on a Dec Alpha 2100 and two 250's. The
performance was not that bad considering we were in development mode and several
instances of Express was running on each machine.
We recently had to give a demo of what we had accomplished so far. We
deployed the application and ran it on a 486 66Mhz running Win95 and it was
incredibly slow. We also ran it on a Pentium-133 and was not much better.
The delay for popping up detailed windows after double clicking in an array
field could easily take 10 seconds. We have to run our application on an
Dec Alpha 2100 to get descent performance!
Has anybody else experienced this poor performance? What is your
performance like? Any comments/suggestions appreciated.
Note: Our database server was a Sparc 5 with 64Meg. Pretty slow but
we only had one user accessing the database. The Server was also
not compiled since we were told by the Forte people that the gain
in performance did not warrant the extra trouble required to
compile.

Gunnar, I had dbms_snapshot.refresh embedded on one page as "after submit" process and it was enough to crash the application. Apex pages are rendered on-the-fly and the (materialized) view refresh takes somehow too long.
The same thing happens if you create a regular view that selects from remote database. Connection speed between the host and remote database doesn't seem to matter.
My solution is NOT to refresh materialized views in Apex pages at all. I've recreated my materialized views with the following parameters
REFRESH COMPLETE ON DEMAND START WITH sysdate+0 NEXT sysdate+1/24
so that it refreshes every hour and it works perfectly. Let me know if it helps.

DDE with Forte/Express

Subject: DDE with Forte/Express 7/28/97 1:01 PM
Has anyone tried feeding data into Forte via an external system? The manual has a few pages containing command etc but I would like to find some actual code/examples. We are looking into feeding data from perhaps Reuter into Forte. At this point I am not familiar with DDE nor Reuter. Is there somebody who have experience in this? How much work is involved and can you send me any examples or documentations?

I had a problem similar to this trying to install Express 1.0.c. with Forte
2.f installed. I had to reinstall E2 and then install Express and then
reinstall 2F
It appears to be working now.

Subject: Forte express installation
RE: Forte express v. 1.0.c.2
Does anyone would give a hand regarding Forte express installation?
I encount a problem where the setup.exe always returns a message
--"...Unable to find forte directory, installation is unable to
continue..",
despite the fact that I have had a up-and-running versin of Forte.
In the warming message, it also mentions that they need version of
2.0.E.2. I only have Forte system software v2.0.F.2. Does it matter? Is it
because I have a latter version of the software which makes Forte
express unable to detect?
Many thks!
