Group RCDC Event Handler Bug?

I have added a field in the Group RCDC in a Tab (grouping) called "Admin" and marked it as Required within the RCDC.
Now, if I were to take an existing group that has a Member Selection of "Criteria-Based" and change it to "Manual" and click "OK" without populating the "required" field in the other tab, I would be re-directed to
the field with the note "The required field cannot be empty" as expected. However, if I fill out the field and submit the request, I noticed it doesn't clear the underlying "Filter" attribute and the request fails with "Group validation
failed: Static group cannot update membership filter".
I believe this is related to the fact that the Group RCDC has a built-in event handler when the "Member Selection" changes. But doesn't modify the "Filter" attribute unless you go to the "Members" tab? Seems the even handler
is ignored or overridden by the event handler that checks for Required fields to be populated?
Anyone else run into this?

Event Handler/Create User Event bug

This is a problem I've run into a few times on my system (Win2k) so I finally went back and reproduced it step by step since it wasn't too hard. It causes LabVIEW to crash and exit without saving.
- Create an Event Handler
- Place 'Register Events', wire output to dynamic event terminal
- Place 'Create User Event', wire output to 'Register Events'/User Event
- Place an Empty String Constant [""], wire to input of 'Create User Event'
- Set empty string property -> Visible Items > Label = True
- Rename label from "Empty String Constant" to other such as "Event"
OR
- Create a cluster constant with something in it
OR
- Place a boolean constant
- Set boolean property -> Visible Items > Label = True
- Name label something su
ch as "Event"
- 'Add Event Case...' to the Event Handler, select Dynamic / : User Event
- Delete the constant wired to 'Create User Event'.
- Place a constant of a different data type and wire it to the input of 'Create User Event'
LabVIEW immediately disappears (all changes are lost) and this error is displayed:
================================
LabVIEW.exe has generated errors and will be closed by
Windows. You wlil need to restart the program.
An error log is being created.
================================
If there is a more appropriate place to post things of this nature that don’t really add to the discussion group, but need to be brought to the attention of NI, please post a URL or submittal method. Thanks...

Thanks for the detailed request. We are aware of this exact issue, and the problem was actually fixed for LabVIEW 7.0 for Mac/Unix. Unfortunately, it did not get fixed for the initial release of LabVIEW 7.0 for Windows, but we have plans to include the fix in the first LabVIEW patch for 7.0.
Also, the Discussion Forum is great for notifications of this kind. For future reference, you also have the options of emailing NI engineers directly, or calling us with suspected bug fixes, if you would like more direct communication.
Thanks again, and have a great day!

Bug: RichTextEditor "Initialize" not classed as event handler

I'm trying to load the RichTextEditor control in a popup window. Here's my code:
var rte:RichTextEditor = new RichTextEditor();
rte.width = 600;
rte.height = 500;
rte.title = 'Edit Text';
I need to add the initialize event handler so I can add a button to the toolbar (as per the example on the Adobe website).
However, when I type:
rte.initialize = "addSaveButton()";
Flash Builder says this is invalid as "initialize" is actually a function and doesn't accept any parameters.
Compare this with:
<mx:RichTextEditor initialize="addSaveButton()"/>
Flash Builder recongises "initialize" as an event handler and therefore accepts the addSaveButton() function.
Can anyone else confirm whether this is a bug with the SDK or not? I can simply add the button outside of the RTE for now, but then I'd have to wrap the RTE in a separate panel to accomodate the button, which isn't ideal.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
this is how to add the event listener
rte.addEventListener(FlexEvent.INITIALIZE,addSaveButton);

Event handler doesn't work for a Canvas inside a canvas (Possible bug in Flex 4)

Hi Guys,
I have a canvas sitting inside another canvas. When i try to catch the mouseClick event in the child canvas, im not able to do it. When i change the child canvas component to a 'Panel', the event handler works perfectly fine. Any suggestions/solutions?

ok a few things you should know... it is recomended to use the spark components when working with flash builder 4 thought the mx components are available spark is much litghter in weight. also if you want to use the equivalent of a canvas in spark then you want to use a "group" but ill warn you they dont support inline styles, a border container looked more appropiate for what you were trying to do below. However. i did fix your code for flex 4.0
look below.

Event handler eats up memory. Bad programing and/or bug.

Hello
I've been programming a GUI for a project. The basics of the program is a sample routine that updates a array once a second. Once the array is updated I use a event handler to plot the new array in a graph.
When I wrote this gui I think I've stumbled upon a bug in Labviews memory allocation.
If you have two loops. One that builds a array and then signals a loop with a eventhandler that reads the array and the event handler is stoped for a few seconds (by opening a sub vi or something inside the event handler), the memory goes berserk. When the event handler is free after the stop the memory is still allocated and does not return.
I could not find any information on this problem in the forum so I thought I would share this information with everyone. I managed to reproduce this phenomena in a small example (attached), if anyone is interested in it. The problem is simple to fix once you recognize the problem. However it was not the simplest problem to find (imho that is ).

Where are you seeing the memory being allocated? What tool are you using, task manager or LabVIEW profiling? I'm not seeing what you describe (LV 7.1.1 on a 3.4 GHz Pentium 4 w/ 1 Gb memory)

OIM 10g Event Handler : Integrated with User Groups.User Members

I have created custom event handler and integrated it with User Groups.User Members data object.
here is my code od event handler class:

Swing locks up during event handling of a simple button... bug or feature?

I have the following code:
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.JScrollPane;
import javax.swing.JToolBar;
import javax.swing.SwingUtilities;
public class Test extends JFrame {
     private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
     private JButton button;
     public static void main(String[] args)
          SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable(){public void run(){new Test();}});
     public Test()
          setSize(200,00);
          setLayout(new BorderLayout());
          JToolBar toolbar = new JToolBar();
          button = new JButton("button");
          button.addActionListener(new ActionListener() { public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) { button.setEnabled(false);}});
          toolbar.add(button);
          getContentPane().add(toolbar, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
          JPanel panel = new JPanel();
          panel.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(200,10000));
          for(int i=0;i<10000; i++) { panel.add(new JLabel(""+(Math.random()*1000))); }
          JScrollPane scrollpane = new JScrollPane();
          scrollpane.getViewport().add(panel);
          scrollpane.setHorizontalScrollBarPolicy(JScrollPane.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_NEVER);
          scrollpane.setVerticalScrollBarPolicy(JScrollPane.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_ALWAYS);
          scrollpane.setPreferredSize(getSize());
          scrollpane.setSize(getSize());
          getContentPane().add(scrollpane, BorderLayout.CENTER);
          setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
          setLocationRelativeTo(null);
          setVisible(true);
          pack();
}This code is lethal to swing: when pressing the button, for no identifiable reason the entire UI will lock up, even though all the event handler is doing is setting the button's "enabled" property to false. The more content is located in the panel, the longer this locking takes (set -Xmx1024M and the label loop to 1000000 items, then enjoy timing how long it takes swing to realise that all it has to do is disable the button...)
Does anyone here know of how to bypass this behaviour (and if so, how?), or is it something disastrous that cannot be coded around because it's inherent Swing behaviour?
I tried putting the setEnabled(false) call in a WorkerThread... that does nothing. It feels very much like somehow all components are locked, while the entire UI is revalidated, but timing revalidation shows that the panel revalidates in less than 50ms, after which Swing's stalled for no reason that I can identify.
Bug? Feature?
how do I make it stop doing this =(
- Mike

However, if you replace "setEnabled(false)" with "setForeground(Color.red)") the change is instant,I added a second button to the toolbar and invoked setEnabled(true) on the first button and the change is instant as well. I was just looking at the Component code to see the difference between the two. There are a couple of differences:
    public void setEnabled(boolean b) {
        enable(b);
     * @deprecated As of JDK version 1.1,
     * replaced by <code>setEnabled(boolean)</code>.
    @Deprecated
    public void enable() {
        if (!enabled) {
            synchronized (getTreeLock()) {
                enabled = true;
                ComponentPeer peer = this.peer;
                if (peer != null) {
                    peer.enable();
                    if (visible) {
                        updateCursorImmediately();
            if (accessibleContext != null) {
                accessibleContext.firePropertyChange(
                    AccessibleContext.ACCESSIBLE_STATE_PROPERTY,
                    null, AccessibleState.ENABLED);
     * @deprecated As of JDK version 1.1,
     * replaced by <code>setEnabled(boolean)</code>.
    @Deprecated
    public void enable(boolean b) {
        if (b) {
            enable();
        } else {
            disable();
     * @deprecated As of JDK version 1.1,
     * replaced by <code>setEnabled(boolean)</code>.
    @Deprecated
    public void disable() {
        if (enabled) {
            KeyboardFocusManager.clearMostRecentFocusOwner(this);
            synchronized (getTreeLock()) {
                enabled = false;
                if (isFocusOwner()) {
                    // Don't clear the global focus owner. If transferFocus
                    // fails, we want the focus to stay on the disabled
                    // Component so that keyboard traversal, et. al. still
                    // makes sense to the user.
                    autoTransferFocus(false);
                ComponentPeer peer = this.peer;
                if (peer != null) {
                    peer.disable();
                    if (visible) {
                        updateCursorImmediately();
            if (accessibleContext != null) {
                accessibleContext.firePropertyChange(
                    AccessibleContext.ACCESSIBLE_STATE_PROPERTY,
                    null, AccessibleState.ENABLED);
    }The main difference appears to be with the KeyboardFocusManager. So instead of using a toolbar, I changed it to a JPanel (so the buttons are focusable). I then notice the same lag when I try to tab between the two buttons. So the problem is with the focus manager, not the setEnabled() method.

Dropdown box - which event handler to use ?

I am having trouble with setting the readonly property (via Javascript) of the adjacent textbox to my dropdown box when the index value is a certain number.
I tried using MouseUp, MouseDown, and even OnBlur....but the readonly does not seem to be getting set to true or false consistently.
Could this be a timing issue ? The textbox that I am trying to control is the next tab-order control in the list of controls for this page.
This same logic is working fine in the MouseUp event handler for check boxes. So I am just wondering if this is a bug or must my implementation change to accomodate dropdown boxes ? For instance, should I move the logic to the Enter event handler of the textbox instead ? Can a control's own eventhandler set itself to readonly when it is the active form field ?

After tons and tons of testing time, I've come to the conclusion that dropdowns are totally buggy in 11.0.07 release of Acrobat Pro.
Even if you set the "commit values immediately", you get the PRIOR selected item's value as the event value, not the CURRENT one.
This occurs in a Validate event handler script. I have not been able to use any other event handlers for a dropdown except the OnBlur....and then, for my purposes, IT'S TOO LATE !!!
This is totally worthless as I need to setFocus() and set fields to readonly based on the immediate dropdown offset or face value.

Enhance standard class with event handler method

In trying to enhance a standard class with a new event handler class, I find that the ECC 6.0 EHP4 system does not appear to recognise the fact the method is an event handler method. The specific example is a new method to handle the event CL_GUI_ALV_GRID->USER_COMMAND.
I notice that the flag called Active has not been ticked - see image below. Perhaps this is the reason why the event handler is not being triggered.
Note that there is an event handler for the same event in the standard class which obviously is executed as expected. Any ideas on limitations in the system or I am missing a step?
Thanks
John

Thank you for your replies.
There is a bug in the ALV handler of a standard SAP class (when executed in ITS WebGUI) and I was hoping to create a custom event handler as an Enhancement to execute some custom code to sort of "handle the bug".
I agree - ideally it should be done in a Z class but that will not give me access to the object methods and attributes of the enhanced class.
Cheers,
John

Javascript embedded in button pl/sql event handler not being executed

Javascript calls not working from pl/sql button event handler. What am I missing? Are specific settings needed to execute javascript from pl/sql proceedures?
Example: Want to toggle target='_blank' off and on in a button pl/sql event handler to open url call in new window & then reset when processing submit is done & the app returns to the form.
portal form button's pl/sql submit handler:
begin
htp.p('<script language=JavaScript>') ;
htp.p('this.form.target="_blank"') ;
htp.p('</script>') ;
PORTAL.wwa_app_module.set_target('http://www.oracle.com') ;
htp.p('<script language=JavaScript>') ;
htp.p('this.form.target="_blank"') ;
htp.p('</script>') ;
end ;
Putting the following in the button's javascript on_click event handler works great:
this.form.target='_blank'
to force opening new window with a call in the button's submit pl/sql code via:
PORTAL.wwa_app_module.set_target('http://www.oracle.com') ;
but then the target='_blank' is left on when the submit is done & we return to the form.
putting the above javascript as a function (called fcn_newpage) elsewhere (e.g., after form opens) & calling in the submit pl/sql with
htp.p('fcn_newpage') ;
also doesn't work.
Metalink thought this was an application issue instead of a bug, so thought I'd see if anyone knows what's going wrong here. (Portal 9.0.4.1)

thanks for your discussion of my post.
Please clarify:
"htp.p('fcn_newwindow') sends a string":
What would you suggest the proper syntax for a function fcn_newwindow() call from a pl/sql javascript block that differs from
htp.p('<script language="Javascript">') ;
htp.p('fcn_newwindow');
htp.p('</script>');
or more simply
htp.p('fcn_newwindow') ;
More generally, what I'm trying to figure out is under what conditions javascript is executed, if ever, in the pl/sql of a button (either the submit or custom event handler, depending on the button).
I've seen lots of posts asking how to do a simple htp.p('alert("THIS IS TROUBLE")') ; in a pl/sql event handler for a button on a form, but no description of how this can be done successfully.
In addition to alerts, in my case, I'd like to call a javascript fcn from a pl/sql event handle that would pass a URL (e.g., http://www.oracle.com) where the javascript fcn executed
window.open(URL). The API call to set_target(URL) in pl/sql has no ability to open in a new window, so calling that is inadequate to my needs and I must resort to javascript.
Its clear in the PL/SQL of a button, you can effect form components since p_session..set_target & p_session.get_target set or get the contents of form components.
So to see if javascript ever works, I tried to focus on something simple that only had to set what amounts to an enviromental variable when we returned to the form after a post. I chose to try to change the html value of TARGET from javascript in the PL/SQL button because it doesn't need to be implemented until we finish the post and return to the form.
So I focused on a hack, setting this.form.TARGET='_blank' in the on_click event handler that forced every subsequent URL call or refresh of the form to be a new window. I then wanted to turn off opening new windows once I'd opened the URL call in a new window by setting TARGET='' in the portal form. I can achieve what I want by coding this.form.TARGET='' in the javascript (on_focus, on_change, or on_mousedown, ...) of every form component that might refresh the form. However, that is a ridiculous hack when a simple htp.p('<script>') ; htp.p('this.form.target=""') ; htp.p('</script>') ; at the end of the button's pl/sql event handle should do the same thing reliably if javascript ever works in the pl/sql event handler.
If we didn't have access to form components through p_session calls, I'd assume it was a scope issue (what is available from the pl/sql event handler). But unless my syntax is just off, when, if ever, can javascript be used in a portal form's pl/sql event handler for a button?
if I code a javascript funtion in the forms' pl/sql before displaying form:
htp.p('<script language="JavaScript">') ;
htp.p('function fcn_new_window(URL)') ;
htp.p('window.open(URL)' ) ;
htp.p('</script>') ;
the function can be called from a button's on_click javascript event handler:
fcn_new_window('http://www.oracle.com')
but from the same button's pl/sql submit event handler this call doesn't work: htp.p('fcn_new_window("http://www.oracle.com")')
So my questions remain: Is there other syntax I need, or does javascript ever work properly from the pl/sql of a form button's event handler? If it doesn't work, isn't this a bug that should be fixed by Oracle?
I can probably figure out hacks to make things work the way I need, but executing javascript from pl/sql event handlers seems to be the expected way to affect portal html pages (forms, reports, ...) and it seems not to work as expected. I don't feel I should have to implement hacks for something as simple as calling a javascript function from pl/sql when almost every example I've found in metalink or the forums or Oracle Press's "portal bible" suggests using javascript from pl/sql via the utility htp.p() to effect web page components in portal.
My TAR on the subject, while still open, returned the result basically: "We can reproduce your situation. Everything looks okay to us, but we can't explain how to use javascript where you want or point you to any documentation that would solve your problem or expain why it should not work the way you want it to. We don't feel its a technical issue. Why don't you post the problem on the portal applications forum."
I'm hoping I'm just missing something fundamental and everything will work if I implement it a little differently. So if anyone sees my error, please let me know.
by the way, not sure this is germain, but in reference to your comment:
"redirections in pl/sql procedures give a peculiar result. in a pl/sql procedure, usually, portals give the last redirection statement and ignore anything else coming after it."
if I try to raise an alert:
htp.p('alert("you screwed up")');
return;
in a pl/sql event handler, it still doesn't raise the alert, even though its the last thing implemented in the event handler. But if I set the value of a text box using p_session..set_value_as_string() at the same spot, it correctly sets the text box value when I return to the form.

The onDeactivate event handler doesn't work in InDesign CC. Why?

Hi guys.
I’m working on a script in Javascript for InDesign CC.
The big problem is that the onDeactivate event handler doesn’t work.
Here’s an example that works in InDesign CSx but not in InDesign CC:
#target indesign
var w = new Window ("dialog", "Test onDeactivate");
var et_1 = w.add("edittext", [undefined, undefined, 300, 30], "Lorem ipsum");
var et_2 = w.add("edittext", [undefined, undefined, 300, 30], "Dolor sit amet");
var st = w.add("statictext", [undefined, undefined, 300, 30], "CONSOLE:\r\r", {multiline: true});
et_1.onDeactivate = et_2.onDeactivate = function(){
st.text = "CONSOLE: I left the field with this text:\r\t«" + this.text +"»"; }
var b_ok = w.add("button", undefined, "OK");
w.show();
The script shows a dialog window with 2 edit text fields: when a field loses the focus (clicking on the other one), the «CONSOLE» shows the text of the old field.
Adobe, please, fix this issue as soon as possible.
Thanks.
Giorgio

It's a bug, and it has been reported. Please report it yourself, the more reports the better. It's no good asking Adobe in this forum to fix something.

Event Handling in BSP

Hi guys,
i need the framework of event handling in BSP. if have multiple controls on my BSP (with flow logic, how ican capture each event occured by each control.
a- i have two radiobutton groups, each have two radiobuttons.
b- i have a tableview, if user select a row i need the value of the selected row.
c- i have a button, onclick i want to handle all the events, checked radiobuttons value, selected row to do a action or navigation.

in the event click of the button (oninputprocessing)
you can get the value of other objects (radiobutton, tableview etc,
you have to do something like below.
for tableview
DATA: table           TYPE REF TO cl_htmlb_tableview .
table ?= cl_htmlb_manager=>get_data( request = request
                                            name    = 'tableView'
                                            id      = 'TV1' ).
for radiobuttons
data: radiobuttongroup1 type ref to cl_htmlb_radiobuttongroup.
data: radiobuttongroup2 type ref to cl_htmlb_radiobuttongroup.
radiobuttongroup1 ?= cl_htmlb_manager=>get_data(
                        request      = runtime->server->request
                        name         = 'radioButtonGroup'
                        id           = 'RBG1' ).
if radiobuttongroup1 is not initial.
r1sel = radiobuttongroup1->selection.
endif.
radiobuttongroup2 ?= cl_htmlb_manager=>get_data(
                        request      = runtime->server->request
                        name         = 'radioButtonGroup'
                        id           = 'RBG2' ).
if radiobuttongroup2 is not initial.
r2sel = radiobuttongroup2->selection.
endif.
Hope this helps.

Event handling in Dynpage

Hi all,
This is my first post in SDN.
Can any one tell me how to submit a form in DYNPAGE via radio button. If I check the radio button on, it should submit the form and should return the same page.
Appreciate you help.
Thanks,

Event handler when using partial page refresh ?

Hi
I have a calendar, which uses partial page refresh. The problem is how to make javascript wait until the calendar has loaded and then do some updates on the calendar (after the user has pressed the next button that runs apex.widget.calendar.ajax_calendar('S','next');, for example ). I thought I could add "onreadystatechange" (or onload) event handler to the calendar like this: onreadystatechange="checkState()", where the function would check the state and if ready then do the updates. This doesn't work. Could somebody please tell me why not ?
Tiina

Hi,
It seems that ajax calendar missing event apexafterrefresh.
I do not know is this "bug" or just feature.
That event would be useful to your case , if I understand correct what you looking for.
For workaround , you can over write original function by placing this to calendar region footer
<script>
apex.widget.calendar.ajax_calendar=function(p_calendar_type, p_calendar_action, p_calendar_date, p_calendar_end_date){
var l_cal_type_field = $v('p_cal_type_field_id');
var l_cal_date_field = $v('p_cal_date_field_id');
var l_cal_end_date_field = $v('p_cal_end_date_field_id');
var l_cal_id = $v('p_calendar_id');
var l_calendar_region = 'calendar' + l_cal_id;
if ( p_calendar_type != 'C' ){
$s(l_cal_date_field,$v('p_calendar_date'));
}else{
if ( $v(l_cal_date_field) == '' ) {
   $s(l_cal_date_field,$v('p_calendar_date'));
if ( $v(l_cal_end_date_field) == '' ) {
   $s(l_cal_end_date_field,$v('p_calendar_end_date'));
// create and apex.ajax.widget object
var a = new apex.ajax.widget('calendar',function(){
/* start the return function */
if(p.readyState == 1){
   document.body.style.cursor = "wait";
}else if(p.readyState == 2){
}else if(p.readyState == 3){
}else if(p.readyState == 4){
   $x(l_calendar_region).innerHTML = p.responseText ;
   $s(l_cal_date_field,$v('p_calendar_date'));
   if (p_calendar_type == 'C') $s(l_cal_end_date_field,$v('p_calendar_end_date'));
   document.body.style.cursor = "";
/* DO HERE THINGS AFTER CALENDAR REFRESH */
}else{return false;}
// code for next,previous and today
if (p_calendar_type == 'S'){
p_calendar_type = $v('p_calendar_type');
}else{
$s(l_cal_type_field,p_calendar_type);
a.ajax.addParam('p_widget_mod',p_calendar_type);
a.ajax.addParam('p_widget_action',p_calendar_action);
a.ajax.addParam('x01',l_cal_id);
var lDate = (!!p_calendar_date && p_calendar_date !== '')?p_calendar_date:$v(l_cal_date_field);
if (p_calendar_type == 'C') {
var lendDate = (!!p_calendar_end_date && p_calendar_end_date !== '')?p_calendar_end_date:$v(l_cal_end_date_field);
a.ajax.add(l_cal_date_field,lDate);
if (p_calendar_type == 'C') a.ajax.add(l_cal_end_date_field,lendDate);
a.ajax.addParam('x02',lDate);
if (p_calendar_type == 'C') a.ajax.addParam('x05',lendDate);
a.ajax.add(l_cal_type_field,p_calendar_type);
a._get();
</script>Where I have comment *"do here things after calendar refresh"*, you can hook own scripts.
Of course this is not best way, but might help you till ajax calendar support dynamic actions fully

Jari

Event handler in later sequence frame is handling my event

Consider a case where you have a sequence with two frames. Each frame has an event handler. If you are in frame 0 processing events, do you think that the event handler in frame 1 should have any relevance? The attached vi demonstrates that it does. This seems like a bug to me or at least something to watch out for. I spent a half-day trying to figure this one out.

kc64 wrote:
I read the caveats and recommendations several times. I recognize that my example vi shows two event structures in one loop but, in my application , this is not the case. I don't see any clear instruction on that help page that would indicate that I have broken some rule of event structure use.
That's bothersome. I use sequences all the time and nobody has ever commented that my code is badly designed. I wonder why NI provides that function if it promotes poor code design. You did say "often" and not "always" so I have an out. :^)
Well, maybe they missed something in the caveats But using more than one Event Structure is not a good idea.
I just posted something to that effect this morning: http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&thread.id=337440
As for using a sequence structure (especially Stacked Sequences), I totally agree with Denis that it is poor design. Unfortunatley, NI cannot remove them from the palette due to compatibility with older versions. I would vote that they be removed ASAP.
However, it is your choice to follow other people's advice or not to follow it.
