but answer for your question is form is nothing to do with the pdf generation. you can call the report from the as usual.
In the report you should set the properties like

Difference between File adapter and FTP adapter

hi,
I would like to know what is the difference between File adapter and FTP adapter
thanks
Yatan

Both file and ftp adapters are non-concurrent jca adaps, however we go for file adapters mostly when you have files on your local environment and do not need to wait for someone to FTP the files on a timely basis. In case of FTP Adapter, we would need an FTP Server, a remote location with access where in files pitch in for polling.
Also, File adapter is dependent on the local folder and OS, however FTP adapter is dependent on the local as well as the remote file system/OS/folder permissions/user access.

YES, very much possible. Only with CRUD operation on a table is possible.
Please refer the below URL, where you can see the multiple check box selected under "Perform an operation on a table" under Operation Type.

BPEL process with DB adapter and FTP adapter

Hi ,
i need to read a table contents using DB Adpter after recieving the data i need to write a swich condition on column value of each record and dependin og the criteria i need to write the record in an appropriate file
can any one help me out by giving any similar reference BPEL process
regards,
Anasuya Vemuri.

Hi,
Configure the DB Adapter as a service in your composite which does polling the table in the DB, there are many settings in polling, make your selection according to your business needs. Configure the FTP Adapter as a reference in the Composite. And use switch activity inside the BPEl if you want to check something like if else cases. And invoke the FTP Adapter and before that populate the invoke input variable values using assign activity copy operation. Make sure you create connection factories for both adapters and populate the important attributes for them in the SOA Admin Console.

"encoding = UTF-8" missing while writing XML file using file Adapter

Hi,
We are facing an unique problem writing xml file using file adapter. The file is coming without the encoding part in the header of xml. An excerpt of the file that is getting generated:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<customerSet>
<user>
<externalID>51017</externalID>
<userInfo>
<employeeID>51017</employeeID>
<employeeType>Contractor</employeeType>
<userName/>
<firstName>Gail</firstName>
<lastName>Mikasa</lastName>
<email>[email protected]</email>
<costCenter>8506</costCenter>
<departmentCode/>
<departmentName>1200 Corp IT Exec 8506</departmentName>
<businessUnit>1200</businessUnit>
<jobTitle>HR Analyst 4</jobTitle>
<managerID>49541</managerID>
<division>290</division>
<companyName>HQ-Milpitas, US</companyName>
<workphone>
<number/>
</workphone>
<mobilePhone>
<number/>
</customerSet>
</user>
So if you see the header the "encoding=UTF-8" is missing after "version-1.0".
Do we need to configure any properties in File Adapter?? Or is it the standard way of rendering by the adapter.
Please advice.
Thanks in advance!!!

Creating PDF files using file adapter

Hi,
Is it possible to create a pdf file using, File/FTP adapter? If yes can someone please suggest how to do it.
Thanks,
Phani

Hi Phani,
I would say pdf files are binary files with a specialized format.
You can move pdf files through BPEL or ESB (i.e. file/ftp -> file/ftp), or from file to database BLOB and database to file, by importing the schema as opaque.
However I doubt that file adapter can create PDF files from a plain-text xml file, i.e. as PDFCreator would.
In a sense a pdf file is much like a jpg, mp3, or zip file, it can be passed through bpel but not created.
In other words if you have a base64Binary element in xml, that you know is the complete bytes to a pdf, jpg, or other file, you can write it out as a file using the File adapter.
Thanks
Steve

Reading Multiple lines in a file Using File Adapter

Hi All,
Iam new to this technology.How to read multiple lines in a file using file adapter.Brief me with the methodology.

I didn't look at anything else but if you want to write more than one line ever to your file you should change this
out = new FileOutputStream("Calculation.log");to this...
out = new FileOutputStream("Calculation.log",true);A quick look at the API reveals the follow constructor FileOutputStream(File file, boolean append) append means should I add on the end of the file or over-write what is there.
By default you over-write. So in our case we say true instead which says add on to what is there.
At the end of that little snippet you shoudl be closing that stream as well.
So where you have
p.close();You should have
p.close();
out.close();

Delete file using file adapter

Hi,
How can we delete a file using file adapter, I am using SOA 11g R3.

thanks for reply,
What I am trying to do is to only delete the file, is there some way where we can simply do a "delete", instead of first reading a file and then deleting it.

Is it possible to read the file using File Adapter which is in client machi

Is it possible to read the file using file Adapter which is in client machine(on the same network).Then what is thee need of FTP Adapter?

You can achieve that by exposing your client machine as a drive, then you can go using file adapter.
FTP adapter will help you to communicate with different machine which is in different network.

How to generate a second csv file with different report columns selected?

Hi. Everybody:
How to generate a second csv file with different report columns selected?
The first csv file is easy (report attributes -> report export -> enable CSV output Yes). However, our users demand 2 csv files with different report columns selected to meet their different needs.
(The users don't want to have one csv file with all report columns included. They just want to get whatever they need directly, no extra columns)
Thank you for any help!
MZ

Hello,
I'm doing it usually. Typically example would be in the report only the column "FIRST_NAME" and "LAST_NAME" displayed whereas
in the csv exported with the UTL_FILE the complete address (street, housenumber, additions, zip, town, state ... ) is written, these things are needed e.g. the form letters.
You do not need another page, just an additional button named e.g. "export_to_csv" on your report page.
The csv export itself is handled from a plsql procedure "stored procedure" ( I like to have business logic outside of apex) which is invoked by pressing the button "export_to_csv". Of course the stored procedure can handle also parameters
An example code would be something like
PROCEDURE srn_brief_mitglieder (
     p_start_mg_nr IN NUMBER,
     p_ende_mg_nr IN NUMBER
AS
export_file          UTL_FILE.FILE_TYPE;

l_lfd               NUMBER;
l_dateiname          VARCHAR2(100);
