  • How to call external Perl routines from Pl/SQL - Urgent

    Available software in the Test Environment:
    1. Sun Unix 2.8
    2. Oracle 8.1.7 ( 8i)
    3. Perl 5
    Iam trying to call/execute perl scripts from PL/SQL using the DEMO_RDBMS.mk. I am able to call C scripts from PL/SQL, but actually want to call Perl scripts.
    The steps followed for for C are -
    1. Create and compile a simple C program to execute a unix command (eg., touch a file).
    2. Make a shared library of the above compiled program (object), i.e., load the compiled object module into a dynamic load library.
    3. Declare the above library in Oracle using SQL*Plus.
    4. Define a PL/SQL function or procedure to call the external routine.
    5. Test the external routine.
    The above steps run good for a C program, but step 2 fails when run for a Perl script.
    When I tried to use the following command for step 2 -
    make -f $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/demo/demo_rdbms.mk extproc_callback \
    SHARED_LIBNAME=cmd_lib.so \
    OBJS=tst_cmd.pl
    got the following error -
    ld: fatal: file tst_cmd.pl: unknown file type.
    ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written t cmd_lib.so
    *** Error code 1
    This gives me an indication that demo_rdbms.mk does not understand/interpret Perl scripts. Going through the demo_rdbms.mk suggests the same.
    My questions is - How do we call external Perl scripts/routines from PL/SQL ??
    Do I have to get a different version of "demo_rdbms.mk" ?
    PS: The perl scripts used above (tst_cmd.pl) is error free and works as intended in the unix environment.

    Iam trying to call/execute perl scripts from PL/SQL using the DEMO_RDBMS.mk. I am able to call C scripts from PL/SQL, but actually want to call Perl scripts. Well, C is a "compiler" language and Perl is interpreted. In a sense, C is not "scripts".
    When I tried to use the following command for step 2 -
    make -f $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/demo/demo_rdbms.mk extproc_callback \
    SHARED_LIBNAME=cmd_lib.so \
    OBJS=tst_cmd.pl
    got the following error -
    ld: fatal: file tst_cmd.pl: unknown file type.
    ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written t cmd_lib.soI guess this compiles an extproc "stub" with your object file, generating an external procedure. So the object file really needs to be an object file :-)
    My questions is - How do we call external Perl scripts/routines from PL/SQL ??I'd guess you need an embedded Perl interpreter in the external procedure.
    Not much help though I'm afraid :-/

  • How to call a perl module from Java program.

    Hi,
    I create a simple java program as follows
    class test{
    public static void main(String args[])
    {try {                    
    Runtime r = Runtime.getRuntime();
    r.exec("perl test.pl");
    catch(Exception e)
    {e.printStackTrace();}
    and test.pl is located in the same directory as the java program. The program compiles but with no return as I execute it. I am not sure what is wrong.
    Thanks,

    I think the wrong line is here; r.exec("perl test.pl");
    Usually the JVM needs the full path.If the path for either the executable or the script was wrong then, given the code posted, it would not hang.
    >
    To automatticaly get the path (if the file is in the
    class path) use
    System.getProperty("java.class.path")
    That gets paths(plural).
    Try this:
    r.exec("perl " +
    System.getProperty("java.class.path") + "\test.pl");I am rather certain that that won't work on any standard operating system.

  • How to call a SQL function from an XSL expression

    Hi
    In R12, in Payroll Deposit adivce/Check writer, We need to sort the earnings tag <AC_Earnings> in to two different categories as regular and other earnings. In the DB and form level of element defintiion we have a DFF which differentiates between the two kinds of earnings. But the seeded XML that is gerneated by the check writer does not have this field.
    The seeded template displays all the earnings in one column. How can we achieve this in the template without modifying the seeded XML.
    The one approach i have is to write a function and based on the return value sort the data. For this I need to know :

  • How to call a web service from forms 9i

    Hello all, I was trying to run the example on this website that shows how to call a webservice from forms, and I recieved an error. I am at the last step, where it tells me to create a button and add a when button pressed trigger. Here is the code I am using from the example:
    DECLARE
    jo ora_java.jobject;
    rv ora_java.jobject;
    ex ora_java.jobject;
    BEGIN
    jo := CurrencyExchangeServiceStub.new;
    --This will get the exchange rate from US Dollars to UK Sterling.
    rv := CurrencyExchangeServiceStub.getRate(jo,'USA','UK');
    message (float_.floatValue(rv));
    EXCEPTION
    WHEN ORA_JAVA.JAVA_ERROR then
    message('Unable to call out to Java, ' ||ORA_JAVA.LAST_ERROR);
    WHEN ORA_JAVA.EXCEPTION_THROWN then
    ex := ORA_JAVA.LAST_EXCEPTION;

    END;
    It gives me an error on"Exception_.tostring" component must be declared. Does anyone have any suggestions? I am trying to figure out how to call an external WS from a form. Thanks.

    IN forms Builder under Import java classes
    Change the Import Classes field to java.lang.Exception and press Import. This will create a PL/SQL package for the Exception Java class. While this is not essential, it does make error reporting easier. Now press Close to dismiss the dialog.

  • How to call a jsp page from oaf and run in jDeveloper

    Hi all,
    I created sample jsp and then tried.
    String temp = "sample.jsp?";

    null,

    null,
    null,
    true,

    It worked.
    But when i tried with one of the custom page that i downloaded from server it is giving error.
    But now i need to call that page.
    Its Code is given on below link:
    Re: how to call a jsp page from oaf
    Please help me to do this.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Raj

    Raj,
    1. Hope you have placed the custom jsp page (which you have downloaded from server) under "jdevhome\jdev\myhtml\OA_HTML" directory ?
    2. Try to run the custom jsp page from Jdeveloper directly and check whether its working properly or not ?
    (i.e. add jsp page to any project in Jdeveloper then right click on jsp page and select Run xxx.jsp)
    3. If page errors out then custom jsp page seems require few parameters to run it successfully. Pass all requied parameters and test.
    4. There is no problem in the way you are calling jsp page from OAF page.
    regards,
    Anand

  • How to call a web Service from Oracle Applications?

    Hi friends,
    I've posted this question on OA Framework forum , but may be it's more appropiated put it here. Sorry for do it again:
    It's about how to call a web service from a Form or a .sql (via Request) in Oracle Applications:
    Could you please explain here the detailed steps (with code example if it's possible) to invoke a webservice from Oracle Applications?.. how did yo do it...?
    I've read differents posts here and the 33097.1 metalink note (by the way, the first recommended link in this note is broken...), but there are lots of theorical concepts and no real examples to see how/from where invoke the WS
    I'll have to call one webservice (I suppose the customer will give me the interface implementation)...but I've never did it with Applications so that's why I ask you for all the detailed steps...
    I work with Forms 6i, Apps 11.5.10.2 and DB 9.2.0.7.
    Thanks a lot.
    Jose.

    Hello Jose,
    I did using java program to call BPEL web services in 11.5.10.
    I pasted below the metalink note for your reference (Note:250964.1)
    The idea is first write a java program to call the webservice (in my case it is calling an BPEL web service, so this may not help directly), test it.
    Then port the java program as specified in the note, so that you could call your web service through concurrent manager scheduler.
    Is this ok?
    Thanks
    Arun.
