From Forms Product Management -Using Forms and SCM

Oracle9i Forms and Oracle9i Software Configuration Manager (SCM) are integrated so that software configuration management can be done directly from Oracle9i Forms Developer.
Check out this new paper in the "NEWS" section on http://otn.oracle.com/products/forms

I don't think you'll get too many replies. I expect most people here are either committed to using Web Forms already (and so don't need this functionality) or else are still in client-server mode (and so don't understand what you asking).
We are just in the process of migrating from Forms4.5 to 9i (I'm in the WebUtil beta) and we are still finding out all sorts of non-obvious things about web-deployment - don't get me started on how awful the whole GIF thing is! So I'm not really qualified to have an opinion about Webstart. I only have the vaguest idea what it does and I'm not sure I want to read up about it just so I can tell you whether to go ahead with it.
What I will say is this:
(1) Anything that makes 9i Forms more like a client-server experience for the users would be a good thing, bceause it would minimise the shock of transition.
(2) Choice is a good thing. Your recent experience of developers' spleen over the removal of client-server should tell you that people respond well to being given options and badly to having them removed.
(3) If I've correctly understood Haris Peco in their second point we could get rid of O9iAS and that would be flipping marvellous for everybody (except possibly the VP in charge of O9iAS Sales :P).

Unfortunately you have taken an Apple product outside of the area where Apple currently does business. There isn't legally a way around this. Apple cannot license apps to you where you currently live.

Does the SCCM updates manager use OpenSSL, and is it vulnerable to the Heartbleed bug?

I'm 99.99% positive I know the answer, but my boss wants to know for SURE. Does the SCCM updates manager use OpenSSL, and is it vulnerable to the Heartbleed bug?
Thank you for appeasing him.

I must be misunderstanding something here. Would you please help me understand why this isn't answerable here? How does this have anything to do w/ our TAM? SCCM is SCCM regardless of where we got it, right? I'm quite perplexed, so thank you for
clearing this up.
My guess is liability. What if we're wrong? Very few people who frequent these forums are actual Microsoft employees.
If you want a 'for sure' answer, you're best off contacting Microsoft directly IMHO.

From Forms Product Management - Using Enterprise Manager

I have just posted a new viewlet which shows the Enterprise Manager features in 10g. If you have not used EM before its a great high level demo which shows you how yuo can manage your Forms applications from a console. For those already familiar with EM you will be able to check out some of the new work we have done in integrating Forms and EM.
If you go to http://otn.oracle.com/products/forms you can see the feature on the news list.

Calling report from form and after parameter form trigger

Hi, I've also posted to this to the reports forum but because it works from Reports Builder it may be a forms issue which is why I'm x-posting. Apologies.
I have a report that creates a file, desname is set in the after parameter form trigger (it uses one of the parameter values).
The problem is file is not created using the path and filename set in the trigger, the file is created in the bin folder with the name account_by_service_type.txt (account_by_service_type.rdf is the report definition).
If the desname is set in the before parameter form AND a field with the source=desname is added to the parameter form then the file will be created with the correct path and name however it won't have the relevant parameter incorporated into the file name obviously.
I've noticed in other reports that where the desname is being set in the after parameter form that I've had to pass the desname from the form but obviously I cannot do that here either.
Am I missing something obvious?
Regards
Sean

Calling JSP from Forms and going back from JSP to Forms

Hi,
We are calling JSP from Forms 6i using show_document
I'd like to go back to tha calling Form from the JSP.
How can I construct the URL that would lead me back to the same Form and Forms session where the JSP was called from?
Thanks,
Arpad

Thanks Shay,
works for me too...
Now:
when I use the "Back" button of my IE to go back from JSP to the Forms session, it works for Jinitiator 1.1.8.19, but if I use Jinitiator 1.3 I got hung...
Any ideas how could I make it work from Jinit 1.3?
Thanks again/

Report call from forms and 1017

Hi,
we have a web application and and it's first screen is the login screen where user can change their password or when grace time comes we force the user to change their password etc. Password changes successfully, no issue and user goes inside the application. But here is the problem. When user clicks the report after chagning the password then report doesn't work, can't connect to database and audit trail shows 1017 so obviously when they click 3 times their account gets locked because in profile it's set to 3 failed attempts. When user close the application and re login again and then click the report, it works fine. I'm suspecting the new changed password doesn't pass to the report? i would really appreciate for your help, suggestions, advise. how do i make sure that the new changed password should be passed to the report?. We're running against 11g database and sec_case_sensitive_logon is set to false.
Thanks
RM

How to send mail from FORMS and PL/SQL

I want to send a mail from forms + PL/sql.
I do not want to create a new C program and to make it as USER_EXIT.
The called function suppose to send it through the default email method as per the NT or UNIX setup.
Thanks

Thanks for your reply.
It requires JServer. We have many clinets around the world and some of them are still running Oracle 7.3.
Any other sleek solution?

From FrameMaker Product Management

We do look at the forum posts from time to time. More so during product planning phases. The inputs received on the forums is a valuable source of information for us.
We also try to have direct communication with experienced FrameMaker users. We are currently in the planning phase for the future versions of FrameMaker. We would really appreciate if FrameMaker users can take out some time to share their ideas and wishlist with us.
We would prefer to receive a prioritised list of 5 to 10 features (not more than 10). And also a short description for each feature. Based on your requests we might want to schedule a call and discuss your ideas. Some information about yourself and your organisation would help us see your requests in the correct perspective. You can post your list of prioritised features on this forum, or send it to me directly ([email protected]). I understand that many of you have posted multiple requests in the past. It would be helpful if you resend your prioritised wishlist.
Thank you for your continued support.

b Fix the ever-lovin' memory leak!
It's getting beyond tiresome to have to restart the program four or five times a day because "FrameMaker has experienced a serious problem and must quit"!!!!! There must be two hundred .recover. files hiding on my hard drives.
Move the spellcheck dialog out of the way (or, better, shift the text window) so we can see the suspected misspelling in context. Hiding the highlighted string with the dialog (even another one unconnected to the spellchecking task) is torture.
Some keyboard-driven means of getting into and out of the dialogs\toolbars. When using, e.g., the Paragraph Designer, it would be much easier to Shift+Tab back to the main doc window. Ctrl+M is great for getting _into_ it, but it's a mouse-driven world to get out. Being able to move among various toolbar/dialogs without going to the mouse would be very useful.
Drop Caps at the beginning of a 'graf. The current anchored frame method is tedious, and it just doesn't work very well for the material I deal with.
I have copied a few of Tim Murray's list here because I really like them, in addition to my own footnote and anchored frame requests (q.v. supra). I've flagged his suggestions: "¶", my comments have no flag.
¶ Allow forced-justify of the last line of a paragraph.
I've torn out so much hair trying to work around this (never successfully, btw)!
¶ Don't consider the space at the end of a line as a character when determining positioning.
This has always been a puzzle. I leave non-mandatory space at the end of each 'graf in case I want to add more text later or join two 'grafs. This "feature" often drives a new blank, line between 'grafs. Odd.
¶ If you type Alt+0039, you should get a straight single quote and 0034 should give you the straight double quote.
b Feet'n'inches, minutes'n'seconds are all straight quotes.
So it's "turn off smart quotes, enter character(s), turn smart quote back on" or the esc sequences. Dumb smart quotes would be very nice. It would even be nice if Ctl+z reversed the smartness, as it does in MS Word. I could handle two keystrokes for the job, but as it is, we waste a lot of time keeping things straight (so to speak).
¶ Wider fields and dialogs. The good news: A fellow named Klaus Daube has created a modified fmdlg.dll for Windows that has nice wide fields for the Resize Selected Column dialog box. You can download it at http://www.daube.ch/docu/fmaker20.html.
Thanks, Tim, this is great!!
Adobe should include this directly in the application. Does it also work (I'm not able to try it right now) for the next issue you raise:
¶ Show us the path. Some dialogs that show paths to files chop the path down to next to nothing. Show us the whole path, start to finish, and let it wrap when needed.
Oh, yeah!!! That's really old technology.
b The same thing goes for cross references.
It's often difficult to tell which of similar strings I am trying to catch when all I can see is forty characters.
¶ More keyboard support in dialog box lists; Shift+ and Ctrl+click. In the "Set Up Table of Contents" for example, pressing a letter should jump you to an item in the list. Some dialogs do, some to not. Further, you can't Shift+click or Ctrl+click either, and the up/down arrow keys don't work.
I, too, am a rodentophobe. Being left-handed may be a part of it, but having to use the mouse to do anything more complex than bringing up a designer just wastes too much time and effort. Keyboard short cuts (preferably that do not involve seven key strokes) are the best way to go.
¶ Do dialog tabs differently. Guess what you can't do? You can't change tabs by pressing Ctrl+Tab!
Once more, the mouse is vermin, and should be avoided any time possible.
¶ Quick outline view.
Again, this would make life so much easier.

Download older version of a file from SharePoint Document Library using CSOM and 404 error

Hi,
I am trying to download previous versions including Major and Minor versions of documents from SharePoint Online using CSOM. I get 404 error when I try to download the file. I found several posts on various discussion forums where people are getting same
error but none of those have any solution/answer. Below is one of the threads and sample code I have tried that results in 404 error. If I use the link in browser directly, I am able to download the file. Also I am able to download the current version of file
using CSOM without any problem, it is only the older versions that give me 404 in CSOM.

Hi,
According to your description,
I know you want to get older version of a file from SharePoint Document Library using Client Object Model.
The following code snippet for your reference:
public void GetVersions()
ClientContext clientContext = new ClientContext(“http://SPSite”);
Web site = clientContext.Web;
clientContext.Load(site);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
File file = site.GetFileByServerRelativeUrl(“/Shared Documents/mydocument.doc”);
clientContext.Load(file);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
ListItem currentItem = file.ListItemAllFields;
clientContext.Load(currentItem);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
FileVersionCollection versions = file.Versions;
clientContext.Load(versions);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
if (versions != null)
foreach(FileVersion _version in versions)
Console.WriteLine(“Version : {0}”,_version.VersionLabel);

From Forms Product Management - Using WebStart with Forms

I noticed a number of posts on this forum asking if you can run Forms as an application (using WebStart) rather than an applet in a browser.
I would be interested to know the reasons why people want to do this. Is it so that there is no browser windows? Is it because it has more of a "desktop feel"...
I would be interested to hear any of your reasons.
Thanks in advance

I don't think you'll get too many replies. I expect most people here are either committed to using Web Forms already (and so don't need this functionality) or else are still in client-server mode (and so don't understand what you asking).
We are just in the process of migrating from Forms4.5 to 9i (I'm in the WebUtil beta) and we are still finding out all sorts of non-obvious things about web-deployment - don't get me started on how awful the whole GIF thing is! So I'm not really qualified to have an opinion about Webstart. I only have the vaguest idea what it does and I'm not sure I want to read up about it just so I can tell you whether to go ahead with it.
What I will say is this:
(1) Anything that makes 9i Forms more like a client-server experience for the users would be a good thing, bceause it would minimise the shock of transition.
(2) Choice is a good thing. Your recent experience of developers' spleen over the removal of client-server should tell you that people respond well to being given options and badly to having them removed.
(3) If I've correctly understood Haris Peco in their second point we could get rid of O9iAS and that would be flipping marvellous for everybody (except possibly the VP in charge of O9iAS Sales :P).

How to restrict URL to open only from Forms and not from Browser

Hi,
Our application built in Oracle Forms 10g, calls a URL.
The URL is essentially a path on the application server where files are stored. Users can access this to download files from the server.
However the URL can also be opened independently from the browser.
Is there any way, such that the URL can only be opened through the application, and it should be denied when it is opened through the browser.
More details :
Server : itabc123
Location on server : /home/rpdabc/interface/outward/
Alias created in httpd.conf : /rpdabc-dir/ "/home/rpdabc/interface/outward/"
<Directory "/home/rpdabc/interface/outward/">
Options Indexes Multiviews
</Directory>
from application : web.show_document('http://itabc123:7778/rpdbabc-dir');
Kindly advise,
Thanking you,
Rocky

Actually, there are several options including the one already offered above. Here are a few more:
1. If you are using 10.1.2.3 and a newer JRE on the client (e.g. 1.6.0_10 or newer), you could use java script to open the report. This will not be a perfect solution because it may not work if using a non-IE browser or if java scripting is disabled. Refer to MyOracleSupport Article 265863.1 for more information.
EXAMPLE:
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT ('javascript:void(window.open("http://www.oracle.com","","location=no,toolbar=no,menubar=no,"));self.close()','_blank');Replace the url in the above example with the call to your report.
2. Set the age of the cache to a very short value so that it is only available long enough to be viewed by the user who created it. In other words, when setting the reports properties in your Forms code, include the Reports "others" parameter with TOLERANCE=1
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,'TOLERANCE=1');This will cause the cache (on the server) to live for only one minute then be deleted. Refer to the Report Deployment Guide for more information.
3. Upgrade to Fusion Middleware (Forms/Reports) 11. In version 11, the Reports jobid can be randomized. See section 18.8.2 of the Reports 11 Deployment Guide
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/bi.1111/b32121/toc.htm

Calling Reports from Forms, and creating Reports objects

Hello I'm trying to create a Form which lists and launches all of our Reports. In our Client/Server set up we just have a Form which is based on a lookup table of Reports. When the user selects a report on the Form RUN_PRODUCT is used to call the report.
In Forms 9, do I have to create a Report object in the Form for every Report in our system and do I really have to modify the Form every time a new Report is created to add the new Report in?

Hello,
No, one single report object could fit for any report, if you modify its properties at runtime. 
For information, I have written a Forms 9i module able to run any report with 0 up to 10 parameters
Hope this helps

Write to and read from TCP/IP address using Flash and Actionscript

Hi,
I'm a bit of a newbie with flash and Actionscript. I have been programming for a number of years now, but I have only been messing around with flash since CS4. I have CS5 now, and need a bit of help. I have a wireless device that I have made, I wish to make a flash program (potentially adapted to iPhone or Android) that sends and receives data (in the form of Word or Byte sized variables) from an IP address assigned to the device. Is this achievable?

Hi, I would LOVE to have a system for entering recipes in Numbers (as a quasi-database) and then having Pages import the data for formatting. Is this even possible? Is there anything out there that does this using iWork?
I did find this lovely template (example, really) of a recipe book done in Pages:
http://blog.magcloud.com/2010/11/11/pages-recipe-book/
But I want to enter the data raw so that I can generate different recipe books (e.g. based on occasion, or entré, etc.) as needed. If I dump everything into Pages, that's very static and hard to manage.
(And yes, I know I can do something like that using a web platform, but this is for ebook marketing purposes.)
I have iWork '11 on the MB Air and iWork '09 on the iMac. (And I'm not touching the 'downgraded' iWork '13 until they get it back to feature-parity with the prior versions.)
Thank you.

Joel,
Pages v4.3 would be great for producing a cookbook like the example you linked us to. You can Copy data from Numbers and Paste in into Pages, where you can do the fine composition. I wouldn't recommend the newest version of Pages for a project that complex, if you want to fully copy the facing page layout, as the new Pages can't do facing pages.
