You will use the batch process as it was explained above, but I recommend you to revisit the Forms upgrade page on OTN before starting the process. There is also a white paper, explaining differences between 6i and 10g (or 9i) forms. As far as I know, you can not upgrade directly from D2K to 9i or 10g forms but need to upgrade to 6i forms and then 9i or 10g. Don't forget the menu's (if you have any custom ones). There are lots of obsolete functionality/features between the two versions (D2K and 9i/10g). You can find more on the Forms forum regarding this subject. Hope this proves useful.

How to compile a ".java" to ".form" file?

Hi all,
I know that using UI Designer, I can easily design a form visually and then get the java source code for it. But here I want to de the reverse: I have the java source for some GUI of my software and I want to change it in some way without bothering myself in the code. How can I convert my .java to .form?
thanks

if you want to create java code on the fly while messing with the layout you can use jigloo (eclipse plugin) although the code that's produced is horrible at best.

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.

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.

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.

... another question would be why not upgrade those old Forms & Reports to the newest release 10.1.2.0.2 and use the latest Application Server to run them with?
Release 6i and 1.0.2.2 is as you know desupported.

How to compile forms with JDAPI ?

Hi everyone:
I have more than 200 forms need to compile. All the forms have libraries, object groups attached, they also call stored procedures in the database.
When I run this code :
FormModule frm= (FormModule) JdapiModule.openModule("/tmp/"+fileName);
frm.compile();It reports error like this :
Exception in thread "main" oracle.forms.jdapi.JdapiStatusException: _jni_compile_form failed
     at oracle.forms.jdapi.BaseAPI._jni_compile_form(Native Method)
     at oracle.forms.jdapi.FormModule.compile(Unknown Source)
     at oracle.forms.developer.JDAPIFormsApi.attachObject(JDAPIFormsApi.java:54)
     at oracle.forms.developer.JDAPIFormsApi.main(JDAPIFormsApi.java:71)Through forms builder, I need to connect to database, put all libraries and resources in the folder included in FORMS_PATH, to get them compiled.
But how to compile them with all prerequisite conditions set up in my java code ?

An easier way would be to compile the forms via script, there are several examples on the forum.
