Get current form name

I thought this would have been easier. I want to retrieve the name of the current form (the one I just entered). Short of passing the form name as a parameter from the parent form is there an easy way.
I tried
Me.ActiveForm
Form.ActiveForm
Any ideas?
John

Me.Name ?
or
Dim currentForm As Form = Form.ActiveForm
MessageBox.Show(currentForm.Name)

How to find out the current form name

Hi all,
I have to pass the current sapcript form name in the sauroutine pool for some further processing.
I just wanted to is there any variable, method, or way to find out the current/running Sapscript form name generically so that we can pass it on to subpool.
Looking forward for your reply.
Regards,
Anuja.

Hi All,
Many thnaks for your replies.
Actually in my case the situation is, i have to change in multiple forms.
I mean the same perform needs to be used in all the forms almost around 20 using the current form name.
So that perform should be generic. I mean is there any variable/ method or way to get the current form name so that we can pass that to the subroutine pool through form.
Looking forward for yoour reply.

Anuja.

How to know current form name in oracle applications 11i.

Hi all,
By clicking on Help menu-> About Oracle Applications, it will display environment variables info, and current form info, on which we r working.
I want to know from where this information is coming,
Where oracle applicaitons will store this information.
Is there any database table which regularly updates the current form info.
Or is there any log which contains info about current form name.

Hi
For viewing this information you need to read system administration guide , Go through this pdf file

How to get current function name?

Hello, everyone!
I want to get the current function name for debug purpose. I simply want to dump out current class name, function name (and better line number) of current executing statement. For example, I can embed my debugger inside my source codes if I can get the current function name as the following,
<code>
class foo
void function goo()
//operations
myDebugger (getCurrentFunctionName(), informationString)
</code>
Then my debugger will have richer information which indicates in which function information is dumped. Have I made myself understood? If Java does not have such apporach to get current function name automatically, I have to define a function local variable which contains function name manually in each function I want to debug. And pass the variable to my debugger which seems rather silly.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance,
George

To elaborate a little: be sure to read the API on getStackTrace: because of JVM optimization
there may be missing stack trace info, so look before you leap:
public class Client {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        f();
    static void f() {
        Debugger.log("testing");
class Debugger {
    public static void log(String msg) {
        StackTraceElement[] trace = new Throwable().getStackTrace();
        if (trace.length >= 1) {
            StackTraceElement elt = trace[1];
            System.out.println(elt.getFileName() + ": " + elt.getClassName() + "." +
                elt.getMethodName() + "(line " + elt.getLineNumber() + "): " + msg);
        } else
            System.out.println("[UNKNOWN CALLER]: " + msg);
}

Get current FORM-Routine Name

Hi,
during runtime i want to know the current form-routine-name to write it in a variable and put it in an itab. The background-idea is to print out all procedures that have been executed after running the program.
Any hints, suggestions how to get this done?
Thanks in advance
Gunther

Hi, Gunther,
The only way to do this is to read the ABAP Call Stack in an internal table.
Code:
TYPES: BEGIN OF t_s_abap_callstack,
         mainprogram LIKE sy-repid,
         include LIKE sy-repid,
         line TYPE i,
         eventtype LIKE abdbg-leventtype,
         event LIKE abdbg-levent,
         flag_system,
       END OF t_s_abap_callstack.
variable for ABAP callstack
DATA: g_callstack TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF t_s_abap_callstack,
      g_callstack_wa TYPE t_s_abap_callstack.
call 'ABAP_CALLSTACK' id 'DEPTH' field 99
                        id 'CALLSTACK' field g_callstack.
g_callstack now contains the program and routine names called, in sequence.
Pls be careful in using this C Call; in particular, usage in a Productive environment should only be envisaged with the utmost caution.

Hi Jari,
Thanks for your info. Even if set authorize schema to tabs, I still need to get the relationship between "current tab" and "privilege&users". So I think evrm's hard-code method above is avaliable.I agree with Jari: APEX provides Authorization schemes specifically for this purpose. You need to reverse your thinking on how to implement this.
For more information consult the documentation on APEX security, specifically using authorization schemes to restrict access to pages and control rendering of components.
Tutorial: Adding Security to your Database Application (APEX 4.0)
Use Authorization Schemes to control access/rendering for security ("only managers see/access this page and it's associated tab"); and Conditions to control rendering for functional reasons ("region only displayed if account is in arrears").
Authorization Schemes have the benefits of being reusable, performing better, and allowing central maintenance of security-related code. This makes it easier to change the implementation—say moving from role information held in database tables to groups defined in LDAP.
I worked for a number of years with an application where authorization schemes are not properly used (decisions made before my involvement) and all security and business logic relating to rendering and processing is wrapped up in spaghetti code in conditions. It's impossible to maintain.
It is of course advisable to make both authorization scheme and business logic condition code more reusable and maintainable by locating it in API packages.

How to get current view name on clicking device back button?

Hi,
iam wriing a function for handling device back button(in android) press in my app.controller.js .How to get current viewname when clicking device back button.
code samples will be helpful.
my app.controller.js looks like below
sap.ui.controller("com.opensap.App", {
onInit : function() {
document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
onBeforeShow : function(evt) {
navButtonTap : function(evt) {
function onBackKeyDown(){
//alert("hai");
//sap.ui.getCore().byId("SalesDetail").app.backToPage("ProductList");

How to get HTML form name for use in Portal Form's custom layout?

I want to add a date selector to a Portal Form but the NAME attribute of the FORM HTML tag is dynamic.
To add a calendar icon that opens a date selector, I add the following tags to the custom layout after the date form field:
<img src="/images/calendar.gif" height="16" width="16" border="0">
The <form field name> is static, but the <form name> appears to be dynamic (e.g. WWVM3115, WWVM3116, WWVM3117, ...).
The custom layout uses substitution variables for the form fields and labels. Is there a substitution variable for the form name?

Here's the javascript function someone recommended several years ago (on an oracle portal forum) that I've used successfully to reference fields in non-portlet portal forms:
function findItem(pFieldName) {
var vFormElements = document.forms[0].elements;
for(var i = 0; i < vFormElements.length; i++) {
if (vFormElements.name.indexOf("."+pFieldName+".") > -1) return i;
document.write(i);
return -1;
You can then reference the portal form field name using the column/field name only:
document.forms[0].elements[(findItem('COLUMN_NAME_HERE'))]

Caml query - get current user name

I have an external list via BDC (so cannot change column type, create calculated column or workflow
). There is a text column “Supervisor”. I need to create a view that display all items which the value of “Supervisor” = current login user’s display name or login name (windows user name).
I tried set up the field on the UI with [Me] function which does not work because “Supervisor” is not an user/group type column. Now I am working on the code. I found the follow caml query on the web that is close to what I need:
<Eq>
<FieldRef Name='Supervisor' LookupId='TRUE'/>
<Value Type='Integer'><UserID/></Value>
</Eq>
I know this only work if the ‘Supervisor’ type is “User”. I just wonder if someone know how to replace the <Value> with a text string
of the current user’s display name or window name? I really appreciate for any help (I have struggled with this issue for a week).
Forget to mention that I am working on a web part page in SharePoint designer, not in Visual Studio. So I cannot not using spcontext class.

Thank you again for your response. For this method, I need need to find a way to get the current user to a variable, the use the varrible in the query. This works for me:
<ParameterBinding Name="UserID" Location="CAMLVariable;ServerVariable(LOGON_USER)" DefaultValue="CurrentUserName"/>
<Eq>
<FieldRef Name="Supervisor"/>
<Value Type="Text">{UserID}</Value>
                </Eq>
                <Eq>
<FieldRef Name="AttnMonitor"/>
<Value Type="Text">{UserID}</Value>
               </Eq>

Saving documents via Scripts: Get current file name and set save path/file type

I am writing a script that will:
-Make all layers invisible
-Make a layer named "background" visible
-Delete all the invisible layers
-Save the docment as an EPS file (leaving the original document untouched)
I am new to scripts and so have based my script by copying code from other scripts.
Here is my code:
var doc = app.activeDocument;
var name = doc.name;
var hide = function (){ // hide all layers (based on http://forums.adobe.com/thread/644267)
     var L=doc.layers.length;
     for (j=0;j<L;j++){ doc.layers[j].visible=false; }
hide();
// loop through all layers
for (var i = 0; i < doc.layers.length; i++) {
              // Create the illusrtratorSaveOptions object to set the AI options
    var saveOpts = new IllustratorSaveOptions();
    // Setting IllustratorSaveOptions properties.
    saveOpts.embedLinkedFiles = true;
    saveOpts.fontSubsetThreshold = 0.0
    saveOpts.pdfCompatible = true
//Set up Variable to access layer name
          var currentLayer = app.activeDocument.layers[i];
// Loop through the layers and make the back ground layer visible
          if (currentLayer.name == "Background") {
                    docName = name + currentLayer.name+".eps";
                    currentLayer.visible = true;
// Delete Invisible Layers (based on http://www.cartotalk.com/index.php?showtopic=7491)
var myDoc=app.activeDocument;
var layerCount=myDoc.layers.length;
for (var ii = layerCount - 1; ii >= 0; ii--) {
    var currentLayer = myDoc.layers[ii];
    currentLayer.locked = false;
    var subCount = currentLayer.layers.length;
    for (var ss =subCount -1; ss >= 0; ss--){
        var subLayer = currentLayer.layers[ss];
        subLayer.locked = false;
        if (subLayer.visible == false){
            subLayer.visible = true;
            subLayer.remove();
    if (currentLayer.visible == false){
        currentLayer.visible = true;
        currentLayer.remove();
// Save Out Document with New Name
var saveName = new File ( doc.path + "/" + docName );
doc.saveAs( saveName, saveOpts );
Everything works fine except:
1) It saves the document with the name AdobeIllustratorBackground as opposed to the name of the document
Also, I am not sure how to tell the script to save as EPS and to specify the save location.
Could some one give me some pointers?          Thanks!

Thanks! I changed my code to this:
var title = doc.name;
var title = title.substring(0, title.length - 3);
And it now works! (The substring thing removes the .ai extenion).
However, how do I get it to save it as an EPS? (I found this script that saves as PNG, but I am not sure how to adapt it to EPS).
Also, how do I set the file output path?
Thanks for any help that can be offered.

Get Current vi Name

I'm making a generic error handler that I will use in many sub VI's.
Is there a way to programatically get the name of any sub VI that I
put my error handler into?
Thanks!

Bill,
This is certainly possible. The function you are looking for is
Call Chain in the Application Control subpallette.
If you want an example of how that can be parsed and used, I did
something very similar to what you suggest. You can download it from my
website if you want to take a look. There is a VI called Error Cluster
Generator.vi within the UtilityVIs.llb.
