How To Compile 370 forms ?

Hi All !
i have a script to compile all forms of my application,
how can i mention library name during compilation
(old library name was mohstdlib.pll
new library name is moh.pll)
is there any parameter of frmcmp command?
OR
what should i do?
Regards,

that idea of converting to XML and using some scripts sounds neat ...
with solid experience in shell-scripting and(!) sed-script it may take an hour or so,
but for a sed-newbie .... it easily will take a day or two
so it depends on your experience and on maybe problems in the future
doing it manually (open,change, close) ... will be boring work and take 2/3 hours as rosario said
doing it with scripts might be faster, might be slower, but can be reusable for further jobs (and in case of mistakes you just change your script and rerun it)
as usual there is no clear right or wrong...
yours
Volker

    How to compile all form modules located in a directory

    and compile it. But I want to compile all forms and create

    Yes, his file is useful -- it should run on Windows XP. You need to copy the above text into a file using a standard text editor, something like Notepad. To run it, you open a Cmd.exe DOS window on your pc, change directory (CD) to the folder where your forms are, and enter the command script file name.

  • How to compile a Form in Unix

    Dear all
    I am using forms 10G.
    I have a form and I want to compile it in Unix .
    Can you please tell me the solution step by step .
    I was reading the old blogs here ,and tried the same but did not get the solution .
    Please help me .

    for %%f IN (*.fmb) do frmcmp.sh userid=userid/password@DB1 module=%%f batch=yes module_type=form compile_all=yes window_state=minimize
    Is this comand will work ?On Windows yes, on Unix no, that's the Windows syntax.
    How can I give the fmb name instread of "compile_all=yes " ?"compile_all=yes" doesn't mean compile all forms, but compile all Pl/Sql code within the form. On Linux I use something like the following :. $HOME/.bash_profile
    export Filename=$1
    if [ "$Filename" ]
    then
      Filename=`echo $Filename | cut -f1 -d"."`
    else
      Filename=*
    fi
    for FRM in $Filename.fmb
    do
            echo $FRM
            $ORACLE_HOME/bin/frmcmp.sh $FRM username/password@DB module_type=form 1>$FRM.log 2>&1
    doneIf you execute the script with a form name as argument, only that form will be compiled, otherwise all forms within the directory will be compiled.

  • How to compile a form built in forms 10g on windows platform?

    Hi All,
    I have built a 10g form on my local desktop on windows 7 and compiled/deployed it in apps on linux server.
    I need to deploy the same form fmb on oracle apps hosted on windows platform. Please let me know if fmb works fine or not. And also provide how to compile form in windows platform..like frmcmp_batch command
    Thanks,
    Veena

    The fmb, mmb, and pll files are portable to any platform where Forms can be installed. Every installation that supports running Forms comes with the necessary components to generate the executible files (fmx, mmx, plx). On your Windows machine, if you have the Builder installed, you can generate an FMX using the Builder. If not, you can directly use the compiler. The compiler has a gui option and a command line option. If you do not pass any arguments into the executible (frmcmp.exe) the GUI will start. Alternatively you can generate from the command line (DOS). You may need to set PATH, ORACLE_HOME, TNS_ADMIN, and possibily some others in the DOS shell in order for it to work.
    If you have access to MyOracleSupport, refer to the following note:
    <blockquote>Moving Forms Applications From One Platform Or Machine To Another (Doc ID 299938.1)</blockquote>
    Example:
    <blockquote>frmcmp.exe module=myForm module_type=form userid=scott/tiger@orcl compile_all=yes</blockquote>
    More options are discussed in the Builder Online help and the compiler help.

  • How to compile a form without using apps in r11?

    Is any possible to compile a form without using the apps?
    We want to create an account(not use apps) to "compile a form" in our test environment for special developer.
    What should I do if it's possible to do?
    or If not what can I do?

    Thank you guys for kindly reply.
    We are merging with the other company now.
    Their developer will test in our test/dev environment.
    But the policy don't allow them to access the apps account directly.
    It looks like I can't create a non apps user which has got same rights/privs as apps user.
    The best option for me is to let developer compile the form in NON PROD env with apps user
    or create a custom shell script to compile the form like srini said.
    Thanks,
    Nick

  • How to compile the9i form on RH EL5 64-bit with 11g Forms Services install

    Hi,
    I have a form developed with forms 9i. I need to compile it on RH EL5.4 to get the fmx file that I need for Forms Services 11g that I just installed.
    I looked on the box but there are no fgen*.sh files. Did I miss some component during the installion or there is another way to get the fmx?
    Thank you
    Anatoliy

    Hello,
    One solution for this problem is to use parameter FORMS_MMAP/FORMS60_MMAP as described
    in the following metalink document :
    Note:151618.1 "Unable to Replace .fmx Files 'On The Fly' During Forms Runtime"
    However as described in this document, this parameter should not be used in production
    environments.
    When there is no or very little maintenance periods in production systems to
    perform such copy operations or there is an urgent need to replace a runtime module,
    the following method is the recommended method :
    Keep two directories including the same fmx/plx/pll/mmx, etc files, and
    reference one of them in the FORMSXX_PATH in default.env/registry according to
    the patform. Here FORMSXX_PATH stands for
    FORMS60_PATH for Forms version 6.0.X
    FORMS_PATH for Forms version 10.X /11.X
    When you need to replace one/some runtime modules, replace the one
    in the directory that is NOT referenced in the FORMSXX_PATH variable, then
    change the reference to the updated directory in FORMSXX_PATH. From now on, the
    new connections will start using the updated runtimes. When all the users
    logout from their current sessions and connect to application once more, the old
    directory will be ready for modifications. And at that time you can synchronize
    the old directory with the new one and continue this way switching the
    directories whenever needed.
    Please note that, when there is a need to replace another form or the same form
    once more, before having the chance to synchronize the directories, this 2
    directory approach can be extended to 3,4 or more directories according to needs.
    FORMS_PATH can be set up in default.env file.
    Regards,
    Alex

    You can compile your source .mmb even if there's any user running the runtime of your menu .mmx
    What you can't do is, you cannot replace (overwrite) the .mmx if there is any session using it.

    Hi,
    I'm working on a migration from forms 6i to 11g R2. The development/migration is being made on a Windows 7 64 bits, however, those forms and reports will run on a Linux RHEL 5. Thus, I have to compile them inside that linux box.
    How can I do it? Is there a tool to compile the forms and reports in command line withn a linux box?
    Thanks a lot.

    Thanks for the answer, Carlos.
    I run the command but this error message is displayed "FRM-91500: Unable to start/complete the build".
