How to Call a jasper report from Oracle Forms 6i.

Hi
Can anybody tel me how to Call a jasper report from ORacle Forms 6i.
Thanks & Regards
Bango

Forms 6i client/server? Use the HOST command to call the report. Since a Jasper report is just a call to a url, it will be something like:
v_url := '<your url to the report>';
host ('cmd /c start '||v_url);If it's web Forms 6i it even easier. Just use web.show_document(<url>).

How to call OA Framework Page from Oracle Forms?

How to run an XML Report from Oracle Forms 10G

Hello Friends,
I am in need of showing a xml report output through a button press trigger in Oracle Forms10G.
I have designed the report in XML Publisher and the report looks fine.I found few scripts useful in running the Oracle Report from Oracle forms10G like Run_Report_Object.But I am not aware of any script that could run a XML report and show the output directly from a Form.
All I want is to run a XML report from an Oracle Form with a button press trigger and show the output in an html version.
Can this be achieved?
If so, Kindly advise as this is an immediate work.
Regards,
Badrul.

Hi,
If I am not wrong the XML publisher is same as BI publisher ...
There is one document which explains how to integrate using web service
You want to check this
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/xml-publisher/docs/Forms_BIP_v22.pdf
or you can also try web.show_document ..

I created a bean area and set the class name as implementation class. within that java bean class I called to a bat file which consists of the execution command of the jar file ( because i don't know how to call .jar file from my bean class directly).
then i tried to run it in application server. its still not running.
can you tell me what i have to do within my bean class? or can you suggest any solution?
thank you.

Opening a secure web page from oracle forms for credit card validation

Hi All,
I searched for the topic in the forms forum but couldn't find a solution.
Requirement: As per some compliance, our application cannot do a credit card validation from our forms application, instead we need to use a java code which a third party will provide ,it's an iframe (they say, i am layman when it comes to Java, don't know what is it), but they say that, within your forms application you call our iframe do the credit card validation over there get a token of response back from us and use this token as a confirmation in your application.
Problem: I could not find a solution anywhere wherein i can call a web page from forms. Now, this web page should be modal, i.e. unless i close this page i cannot access my forms application. Please guide me if anyone has done that.
Secondly if i could make it work, how will i communicate with this external web page, like getting back some token value and use it back in my forms application. I am completely clueless.
As we are using Oracle designer for generating forms, we cannot use a bean type thing as designer does not have the bean-item type defined!
Appreciate if anyone could provide me pointers for a solution to this problem statement.
We are on forms 9i -- Version 9.0.2.11.0
Edited by: the_wing_rider on Jul 8, 2011 5:10 AM

The simple way to do it is to use a PJC (java bean) + apache httpclient library..
If you have a webservice than you can use Axis library and wsdl2java to create java classes from wsdl.
also you can use httpclient library to simulate http protocol (request/response actions)..
(for example.. you have a credit card number.. you post this number to specified URL and then you parse the response from credit card validation server)..
Post here some documentation (specification) on how to call the credit card validation .. (maybe it's a secure webservice?)
Here you have a httpclient library documentation:
http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/tutorial/html/index.html
Also you can implement bean area in designer.. If you need help I can post here how we do it in our project..
also look here: Call webservice from PJC over https protocol

How to scan a document straight from Oracle Forms?

How do you connect Oracle Forms (10g) to a scanner and scan documents from an Oracle form??? Is there a way using WebUtil??? i.e. Form has a button called scan. When we press the button the document in the scanner will be scanned and displayed in the form. User can then save it in the DB in a BLOB column.

How to save a flattened pdf from a form

I feel like this should be easy, but for some reason I cannot get it to work, nor have any of the other help documents worked. My apoligies in advance if this is a silly question.
I am using Acrobat Pro X (10.1.2) on a Mac running LION.
I have a pdf with fillable text boxes. I need to type in those, then be able to distribute the form so those are no longer fillable, and the form cannot be changed.
This used to be easy. I would simply print to the Adobe PDF printer and it would save a PDF that was flat.
Now this is not an option. The Adobe PDF printer is not available, and I read it was removed after snow leapard. http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50981.html
However, when I go to print this option is not available and I get the notice: "Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead, choose File > Save."
BUT, when I save the resulting pdf is changable.
I downloaded and installed an action that flattens the PDF. From: http://blogs.adobe.com/acrolaw/2011/02/flatten-form-fields-and-comment-using-a-free-acroba t-x-action/
However, it only works sometimes. Other times when it flattens the PDF the text layer goes away.
Any advice? I do this often, and I know others do too. So I feel like there should be a quick and easy workflow to it.
THANKS.

Hi all, after lots of hours I found a solution for myself.....
Please do not forget to set the a context-pdfSource-attribute to binary and bind it to the datasource...
IPrivatePdfCompView.IContextElement contextElement = wdContext.currentContextElement();
         byte[] bytes = contextElement.getPdfSource();
         try
               File file = new File(filename);
               FileOutputStream os = new FileOutputStream(file);
               os.write(bytes);
               os.close();
            catch (IOException e)
               // do something
               e.printStackTrace();

How to access environment variables from Oracle Forms

Hi,
Any idea how to use the Environment variables from Oracle Forms.
My basic problem is that from Oracle form I am calling Batch file which calls excel file with a macro.
So i want to check whether the macro was successful or not.
So in my batch file i will set %errorlevel% which I should be able to read from Oracle Forms.
I am able to read the registry from oracle forms, so is there anyway to read environment variable as well?
Thanks!
Avinash.

How to open .cmdrw file from Oracle Forms 10g

Hi,
We need to call *.cmdrw* file from Oracle forms 10g. Is there any way to call *.cmdrw* file from Oracle forms 10g?
Thanks for the help.
Viishnu Nekkanti

In case you want to open a .cmdrw with its associated application you can use the following procedure:
webutil_host.NonBlocking( 'rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler ' || client_filename );This works for every file where a program has been associated to its file extension. (Adobe Reader for *.pdf, Microsoft Word for *.doc, Microsoft Excel for *.xls and so on)
