Help : Integrating Oracle Composer with ADF Application

Hi All,
I wanted to add to an existing page Oracle Composer.
So here is what I did.
1) Setup webcenter suite so that I can utilize oracle composer.
2) Added the oracle composer fragment i.e <pe:pageCustomizable id="pageCustomizable1"> to the my jspx.
3) Added Form based Authentication to my application.
4) Provided two types of roles. One as admin role and other as basic role,The admin role had edit permission to edit the above mentioned
page.
5) Added a site layer to allow customization done by the admin user to be stored to the custom site layer.
6) Upon doing so my user with admin role is just able to personalize his page and not able to customize the application for other users.
Could some body let me know if i have missed anything.
Regards
Harish

Hi,
there is no native way of doing this - as of yet. There is a work-around documented on this blog: http://www.oratransplant.nl/2007/05/03/published-paper-about-using-oracle-forms-as-web-component/
In Forms 11, Forms will have a JavaScript API allowing you to interact with the page the Applet renders on. This allows you to call out and in to Forms. I think though that the more robust integration point is the Forms Java API on the server

Facing problem when Integration of configurator with ADF application

Hello,
Integration of conifigurator with custom application is not returing to "return_url" after clicking on Finish button in conifgurator.
We have developed a custom ADF application which integrates a configurator.
We have follwed the below url on developing this.
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/newtojava/overview/ofm-ebs-blog-postings-096286.html
After completeing the configurator process, but the page is still showing as loading and not returning the return_url parameter mentioned in initialization parameters
So we are unable to get the FacesContext of calling application as it always returns null.
Please hlep on this, it is bit urgent.
Thank you
kali

Hi pankaj,
I tried the approach you suggested, Still it's getting stuck at that point it self, Below is the simple servlet code which is the return_url,
package view;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
public class configurator extends HttpServlet {
private static final String CONTENT_TYPE = "text/html; charset=UTF-8";
public void init(ServletConfig config) throws ServletException {
super.init(config);
public void service(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException,
IOException {
response.setContentType(CONTENT_TYPE);
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
System.out.println("Hi how are you");
out.println("<html>");
out.println("<head><title>configurator</title></head>");
out.println("<body>");
out.println("<p>The servlet has received a POST or GET. This is the reply.</p>");
out.println("top.location = \"http://localhost:7101//ConfigTest-ViewController-context-root//CheckoutTest.jsp");
out.println("</body></html>");
out.close();
Below is the view source of clock rotating page , where i can't find any thing from the above servlet,

Integration oracle reports with ADF

Hi All,
I am getting error-
REP-110: File spare_request.rdf cannot be opened. REP-1070: An error occurred while opening or saving a document. REP-0110: File spare_request.rdf cannot be opened
As per Sameh Nassar: Call Oracle Reports From Your ADF Application & Sameh Nassar: Call Oracle Reports From Your ADF Application (Hide Report Parameters From URL), I have created application. But it is not working Please let me know what mistake I did.
1. I have created testreports.jsp
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8"%>

<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f"%>
<f:view>
    <af:document title="reports" id="d1">
        <af:form id="f1">
            <af:inputText label="Label 1" id="it3"/>
            <af:inputText label="Label 2" id="it4"/>
            <af:commandButton text="Run Report" id="cb1" action="#{ReportBean.runReport_action}"/>
        </af:form>
    </af:document>
</f:view>
2. then,I have created OracleReportBean as per blog and ReportBean.java backing bean in the following ways
    public String runReport_action() {
        OracleReportBean reportBean =
        new OracleReportBean("172.30.1.9", "8888", null);
        reportBean.setReportServerParam(OracleReportBean.RS_PARAM_DESTYPE,"cache");// which will be one of the [cashe - file - mail - printer]
        reportBean.setReportServerParam(OracleReportBean.RS_PARAM_DESFORMAT,"PDF"); // Which will be onr of the [HTML - HTML CSS - PDF - SPREADSHEET- RTF].
        reportBean.setReportServerParam(OracleReportBean.RS_PARAM_REPORT,"spare_request.rdf");
        reportBean.setReportParameter("P_WTYPE", "CSH");
        reportBean.setReportParameter("P_WNUMBER", "13400181");
        reportBean.setReportParameter("P_EQ", "0.40 WM");
        reportBean.setReportParameter("P_Req", "40267");
        reportBean.setReportParameter("P_JOB", "WI");
        reportBean.setReportParameter("report", "spare_request.rdf");
        String url = reportBean.getReportServerURL();
        System.out.println("URL"+url);
        reportBean.openUrlInNewWindow(url);
        return null;

Well, the message comes from the reports server which is telling you that the report definition can't be found. Check hte name and path to the file on the report server.

Integration of Webcenter Discussion service with ADF Application

Hi,
I'm in the process of integrating the Webcenter Discussion service in an ADF Application.
I have completed the following steps.
1. Installed JDeveloper 11g and Webcenter 11g.
2. Configured the Discussion server which was installed along with Webcenter 11g.
3. Integrated Discussions with ADF Application by creating a Discussion connection.
The ADF Application is running fine. But the forums are displaying empty. In the Discussion server, I'm unable to create new users and there are no options to create forums and to create threads.
Help me in getting the below things,
1. Where we can create forums?
2. What settings we need to make for new forums and where to do those settings?
3. Are there any settings to create new users as i have only one default user 'weblogic'? When i create new users from Discussion server, I'm getting the message as 'Create users not supported'.

Hope you are using WC_Collaborations managed server to manage all discussion forum activites.
For you requirement ,you need to navigate the following url:
http://<server address>:<WC_collaboration port>/owc_discussions/admin
it will take you to jive forum admin page .where you can create new forums and new users also. For user and groups management ,visit -
http://docs.jivesoftware.com/latest/documentation/forums-admin-guide.html#users_groups
In your application , all users are coming from weblogic server's embedded LDAP or from external LDAP(if you configure so ). there also you can create user.
I have a doubt ,regarding your application.
Are you using only ADF application ,or webcenter application.
for displaying discussion forum ,you need webcenter discussion forums taskflows in your page .
If you use only ADF application,then you need to add all the forum corresponding libraries in your application otherwise need to consult with oracle support.

BPM Tasklist Integration with ADF Application

Hi Experts,
We are using Jdeveloper 11.1.1.7 in our project and need to integrate with Oracle BPM 11g. We basically need to see the BPM task list as well as initiate a new task from ADF Application.
I have already searched the blogs and internet about the same. Below are some of them along with andrejus blogs.
Con-Fusion, Bugs, Facts & Workarounds: ADF-BPM Integration: Custom Worklist.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/user.1111/e15175/bpmug_ws_taskflows.htm#BPMUG20812
What I am looking for is step by step process including the things which needs to be done on Weblogic and domain side to integrate task list with adf application.
Thanks

It seems all of the instructions are there on your second link. When it comes to doing the weblogic portions there are links from there to another guide. I found the following two other links but your second link looks the closest to what I remember from an internal document that had those same steps.
https://blogs.oracle.com/webcenterportal/entry/oracle_bpm_suite_oracle_webcenter

3rd party payment integration with ADF application

Hi ADF experts,
We have a requirement to integrate our ADF application with 3rd party payment gateway.
For this we have created 2 servlets(one to post data, and one for relay response) which will talk to payment gateway.
Since we are using servelts, we wont have access to bindings or any of ADF features. We manage the handshake between servlets and ADF app by passing data through session variables.
I am not happy with this solution, even though it works in our test environment. I would prefer a complete ADF soultion rather than using servelts/jsps.
Is there a standard way(either inbuilt in ADF or extensions) to integrate 3rd party gateway with ADF application which is safe and secure?
Jdev used: 11.1.1.1.5
Payment gateway used: authorize.net
thanks
-Venkat

You can access adf application module from a servlet. All you have to do its to setup a pagedef for the servlet.Check out my blog http://tompeez.wordpress.com/2011/12/16/jdev11-1-2-1-0-handling-imagesfiles-in-adf-part-3/ Which shows how to do this.
I'm not aware of standard integration to a payment service.

Oracle SOA with ADF library

Hi,
I am learning Oracle SOA with ADF as mentioned in the below URL:-
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/jdev/index-095536.html
I want to know what is .jws,.jpr,.jpx files? Whether these are autogenerated files from JDeveloper? What is the purpose of these files? which is not clearly mentioned in the site.
1) What I found is like, i have "n" number of composite services in "CompositeService" folder with a common .jws file which will hold the configuration (.jpr) of the other composie services, by doing so it does integrate all the services into a single cohesive unit?
2) There is a "infrastructure" folder which does have .jws with the DB Schema which is commonly used by the composite services? This infrastructure will be referenced in the individual composite services to communicate with the DB?
3) While deploying it in Oracle WL server, we will create a single .WAR for these composite services and will be deplyed?
4) The packages javax.xml.ws (for webservices) all these are part of ADF library?
5) I found that BPEL is the one which orchestrate the services, which is a XML file which will be similalr to common .jws which holds the config for all the composite services? Where exactly it comes to the picture?
6) Simarly where exactly the SCA and SDO comes to the picture?
Please clarify in respect to the application, which will be of great help.
Thanks in advance.

Guys, no replies. Please respond. Thanks in advance.

Jar file import problem with ADF application

Hi Everyone,
I am using Jdev 11g with integrated WLS. I have an ADF application and is trying to integrate JasperReport in it. I added the JasperReport JAR file in the project properties -> Libraries and Classpath, and checked it for "export" and "Deployed by Default'. I have my JasperReport codes in my managed bean
as follows
+public String cb1_action() {+
+try {+
+JasperDesign design = JRXmlLoader.load("C:/JDeveloper/mywork/ReentryApplication/ViewController/public_html/jasper/testReport.jrxml");+
+JasperReport report = JasperCompileManager.compileReport(design);+
+....+
+}+
+}+
I am able to compile the managed bean class successfully. However when I run the application, I got a stack of errors like this,
+[2009-10-08T11:31:59.910-04:00] [DefaultServer] [ERROR] [] [javax.enterprise.resource.webcontainer.jsf.application] [tid: [ACTIVE].ExecuteThread: '4' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)'] [userId: test123] [ecid: 0000IGollZuB5EirL4YBUA1AnVop00000L,0] [APP: ReentryApplication] java.lang.RuntimeException: net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRException: Errors were encountered when compiling report expressions class file:[[+

+import net.sf.jasperreports.engine.*;+
+....+
It appears that the JAR file is not picked up at the runtime correctly. I tried a simple Main class with the same codes and JAR file added, it works fine. Does anyone know what I am missing within the ADF application?
Any helps would be appreciated.
Thanks,
John
Edited by: john wang on Oct 8, 2009 9:24 AM

Timo,
Thanks you for your prompt response.
1. I checked The following folder (I assume this is where it supposes to be). The JAR file is there.
C:\Documents and Settings\MISSP29\Application Data\JDeveloper\system11.1.1.1.33.54.07\o.j2ee\drs\ReentryApplication\ReentryApplication-ViewController-webapp\WEB-INF\lib
2. I did not do anything about deployment descriptor. Since I run my application within JDev integrated WLS, I did not do anything about deployment setting. Do I need do something with deployment descriptor if I want to import additional JAR files here? With my experience with 10g, to add a JAR file within JDev, all I need to do is to add it through project properties ->libraries.
3. I agree with your absolute path comment. This is a test of how JasperReport works with ADF application. I will work it out later.
Thanks,
-John

Best practice for integrating oracle atg with external web service

Hi All
What is the best practice for integrating oracle atg with external web service? Is it using integration repository or calling the web service directly from the java class using a WS client?
With Thanks & Regards
Abhishek

Using Integration Repository might cause performance overhead based on the operation you are doing, I have never used Integration Repository for 3rd Party integration therefore I am not able to make any comment on this.
Calling directly as a Java Client is an easy approach and you can use ATG component framework to support that by making the endpoint, security credentials etc as configurable properties.
Cheers

Can Oracle Application Express (APEX) be integrated with ADF applications?

Hi All,
Oracle Application Express (APEX) works on various supported databases. Can this tool be integrated with ADF for report publishing, in adf some of my result is coming from Business Components , so can these things be related to each other?
Please provide a suitable forum to ask this question if this question doesn't fir in ambit of this forum.
Thanks in advance.

There are a couple of things you can do - a lot depends on what your application needs. Since you ask this in the JDeveloper forum, I'm going to address getting to ApEx from ADF, not to ADF from ApEx - but some of the same possibilities apply.
Easiest thing to do is to jump into the ApEx application with a af:goLink or af:goCommand referencing the needed page's URL. By setting the target, you can control whether it opens in a new window or the same window. I'm not currently using ApEx, but I have a few reports written as PL/SQL Server Pages that I call exactly this way.
You can also open the ApEx pages in an af:inlineFrame - and it will look like it is inside your ADF application - but use inline frames with a little caution - they don't work perfectly in all browsers, notably Mobile Safari.
ApEx can't look inside your ADF BC objects, but of course, if your two applications are using the same database, you can communicate between them within the database. One possibility to look at is Advanced Queuing.
Some ApEx functionality can be executed by executing the underlying PL/SQL procedures - do a search in this forum for how to call PL/SQL from an ADF BC Application Module.

Ant/Hudson integration with ADF application

Hi,
I'm currently investigating some Ant and Hudson integration for my project and I'd be interested to know how other people are handling such things as continuous integration, automated builds, release management etc with Oracle ADF applications.
I've had some success using ojdeploy from Ant, and I'm now able to run a Hudson project to at least keep track of whether the build (via ojdeploy) is successful or not. However, the ojdeploy tool is a bit of a black box and I'd like to add further steps to my build (such as unit test execution, code quality reports, etc). I guess I can replicate everything that ojdeploy is doing into my own Ant script and stop using ojdeploy (or just use it for EAR creation), but I'm wondering if there are any other helpful bits and pieces I should know about. Are there any JDeveloper/ADF specific ant tasks that I can add to Ant via taskdef and make use of?
Cheers!

japher,
I am not using ojdeploy because of [url http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=848196]a bug that I had found in the earlier 11g releases - I haven't checked to see if it's resolved in 11gR1 yet.
The sneak preview is, yes, it's quite possible to use ANT to build your ADF projects (the article goes into the gory details as to how) - a key thing is to put all of the ADF libraries into your version control system so that you can build the applications without having to install JDeveloper. Once you've done that, setting up Hudson (or TeamCity or Continuum, or any of the other build servers out there) is pretty straightforward. I like Hudson and TeamCity personally, because they involve little-to-no editing of configuration files and lots of point-and-click-at-the-pretty-web-UI. TeamCity isn't free (for anything other than a small configuration), so Hudson becomes a nice default.

Browser back button not working with ADF Application integrated with SSO

I have integrated an adf application with Oracle SSO Authentication. Application is running fine.
Though, while navigating between pages, using browser back button , it is not redirecting the url properly
Should Redirect it to : http://<hostname>:<port>/<contex-root>/<servlet>/<id>
Presently Redirecting it to :http://<hostname>:<port>/<contex-root>
As, directory browsing is not allowed, there is Error 403--Forbidden .
Can anybody tell what changes needs to be made to make browser back button work.

In some of the documentation I have read, they have mentioned that using the back button in a browser doesn't work too well with any JSF type of application (not just ADF and Jdeveloper apps).
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E15051_01/web.1111/b31974/web_form.htm#CFHHJGJH
Instead, they suggest using buttons on the form.
There is a video on using navigation between forms that may be of value: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsPtmRID5XI&feature=plcp
