How to save session state for a text item

hi @averyone,
i designed in interactive report with one apex_item.text field, let's name it "count"
normally the report has more then one pages.
the report should work like a kind of a shopcart.
the user enters some data into "count" and moves on to the next page(s) enters some more date and so on.
at the end he/she will press an button to save the data into his shopcart.
now the problem:
whenever the page is changed, all data in "count" is lost because the column has no sesseion state.
any suggestions how to solve this issue without saviing the date in the database everytime the page ist changed?
thanks in advance
peter

Simon,
i solved the issue using an existing table, which should act quite similar to collections:
at user request i store all entries in this table & a the end a list of selected rows is presented to the end-user.
thanks 4 ur assistance
p.s have a look at the apex api "APEX_ITEM.DISPLAY_AND_SAVE" ?

How do you write UNDO for a text item?? examples? or a REDO??

How do you write UNDO for a text item?? examples? or a REDO??
I have Oracle Forms 6i...
Lets say I highlight all the text in the text item, and start typing over it... then I realize OH NO it is the wrong text field...
Now I want to UNDO the typing and get back to the previous text.
I'd use the initial value that was populate right? How do I access that if that is correct?
Thanks, Bill

You can use;
<ITEM> := Get_Item_Property(<ITEM>,DATABASE_VALUE);
Or you will have to write a pre-text-item trigger;
PRE-TEXT-ITEM:
:CTRL.CURRENT_VAL := :<BLOCK>.<ITEM>
MENU (PL/SQL):
:<BLOCK>.<ITEM> := :CTRL.CURRENT_VAL;
You may also want to set the item property back to ITEM_IS_VALID so that item validation does not fire again.

Update Session State for only one item

I have several hidden items (e.g. fund, object and unit) that hold values that are input parameters for a function that returns a SQL statement to a 'PL/SQL Function Body Returning SQL Query' region. These hidden items are set when a user selects a value from a pop-up tree. I want to dynamically set corresponding visible prompt text items (fund_prompt, object_prompt and unit_prompt) to a descriptive value that makes sense to the user. I've tried using a source type of SQL and placing the following SQL statement in the source
SELECT child_prompt
FROM fr_hierarchy_fund
WHERE child = :FUND;
When the value in one of the hidden items is changed, the visible prompt item displays "undefined" until the page is submitted.
Is there a way to set the session state of an item without submitting the page?
Thanks
David

David,
Items, hidden or not, are not set in session state until the page is submitted. You might consider submitting the page with a javascript event on your popups. The request value can be used to control what processing you do or don't do on page submission and a branch right back to the page should allow you to show everything based on current item values.

How to disable copy option for a text item in oracle forms

Hello experts,
I am using oracle forms 11g with weblogic server 10.3.5 at windows7.I have a text item in my oracle form and I have to disable to being copy from a text item in oracle forms.Actually I have to make two text item.First text item to type a password and another text item is also to type password.Here I want that the data from first text item should not be copy through the use of mouse or keyboard shortcut key.
thank you

aaditya

Thank You To reply, Actually doing so as you said,My problem would not be solved.This would hide data in text item than I will not be able to copy that but in my case the data should not be concealed.Actually I have to make a Form to User registration and here is a strictly boundation to have a right email address of user.There would two text items for this purpose as: N_User_Email------> to type email address in text item.Here user would not be able to copy text written from N_User_Email R_User_Email ------> to type email address again as in N_User_Email.

How ADF save client state for dynamic region

Hi,
I am wondering what is the best value for "org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.CLIENT_STATE_MAX_TOKENS"?
Our application uses one single dynamic region to render a lot different user menu items outside the region, each menu item corresponds to a bounded taskflow. So if user clicks the back button, user will always goes back to login page.
Moreover, when the content of the dynamic region change (taskflow id change), is the client state of the previous taskflow UI's state of the region still tracked by adf? Looks like not necessary but I just want to confirm.
env: jdev11.1.2.1
Many thanks.

Hi,
when you switch a dynamic region then the task flow displayed in the region is discarted and no client state other than the current is saved. Each change of the dynamic region changes the current view Id but does not replace it

How to save the session states for a tabular form WITHOUT using check boxs?

Greeting guys,
As you know that we can use collections to save the session states of a tabular forms, described in the how-to doc of manual tabular forms. However, what I am trying to do ( or have to do) is to provide a manual tabular form, and save the session states for validation, without using the check boxes. Because a user can put contents into some columns in a row without checking the corresponding checkbox, according to the requirements. So basically what I tried is to loop over all the rows and save Every entry into a collection. However, sometimes I got "no data found" error with unknown reasons.
My current solution is to use the "dirty" Retry button that gets back the history, which IMO is not a good workabout. So, I'd appreciate if somebody can shed some light on a better solution, especially if it is close to the one in that how-to doc.
Thanks in advance.
Luc

The following is the first collection solutin I've tried:
htmldb_collection.create_or_truncate_collection('TEMP_TABLE');
for i in 1..p_row_num loop -- Loop on the whole form rows
if (htmldb_application.g_f01(i) is not null) or (htmldb_application.g_f05(i) <> 0)
--If either of them has some input values, the row should be saved into the colleciton.
then
htmldb_collection.add_member(
p_collection_name => 'TEMP_TABLE',
p_c001 => htmldb_application.g_f01(i),
p_c002 => htmldb_application.g_f03(i),
p_c003 => htmldb_application.g_f04(i),
p_c004 => htmldb_application.g_f05(i),
p_c005 => htmldb_application.g_f06(i),
p_c006 => htmldb_application.g_f08(i)
end if;
end loop;
Some of columns have null values, but I don't think that's the reason. Because once I clicked all the check boxes, there would be no error no matter what values were in other columns.
Another issue would be extract the values FROM the collection, which has been tried because I had problem to store the data into the collection. I used "decode" functions inside the SQL to build the tabular form. I am not sure whether it will be the same as a regular SQL for a tabular form, like the example in the How-to doc.
Also I didn't use the checksum, for it is not an issue at the current stage. I am not sure whether that's the reason which caused the NO DATA FOUND error.

How to save the data present in TEXT BOX?

Hi friends i am able to create a text editor in one of my screen but i want to know how to save the data when the text is entered in that text box and retrive when they open the screen?

Hi ,
Please check the format below since it is based on a working code
first you need to create a text in s010 function module...
there should be some key based on which you plan to save the text..imagine it is Purchase order then..PO+item numner is always unique.eg:0090010(900PO/item10).so in the code you can append these two and they will be unique..so you can always retrieve them,overwrite,save them anytime you need
**************data declarations
TYPES: BEGIN OF TY_EDITOR,
EDIT(254) TYPE C,
END OF TY_EDITOR.
data: int_line type table of tline with header line.
data: gw_thead like thead.
data: int_table type standard table of ty_editor.
****************fill header..from SO10 t-code..when you save you need the unique key..youfill it here and pass it in save_text function module
GW_THEAD-TDNAME = loc_nam. " unique key for the text -> our unique key to identify the text
GW_THEAD-TDID = 'ST'. " Text ID from SO10
GW_THEAD-TDSPRAS = SY-LANGU. "current language
GW_THEAD-TDOBJECT = 'ZXXX'. "name of the text object created in SO10
*To Read from Container and get data to int_table
CALL METHOD EDITOR ->GET_TEXT_AS_R3TABLE
IMPORTING
TABLE = int_table
EXCEPTIONS
ERROR_DP = 1
ERROR_CNTL_CALL_METHOD = 2
ERROR_DP_CREATE = 3
POTENTIAL_DATA_LOSS = 4
others = 5.
IF SY-SUBRC 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
loop data from int_table and save to int_line-tdline appending it.
*save the text
CALL FUNCTION 'SAVE_TEXT'
EXPORTING
HEADER = GW_THEAD
TABLES
LINES = InT_LINE
EXCEPTIONS
ID = 1
LANGUAGE = 2
NAME = 3
OBJECT = 4
OTHERS = 5.
IF SY-SUBRC 0.
ENDIF.
*To pass to Container
CALL METHOD EDITOR ->SET_TEXT

How to reference session state in a list entry label

You can use &<item>. to reference session state values which can then be used in titles and item labels but it seems it does not work in the label for a list entry (i.e. to build a menu). Is there a workaround?
thanks in advance
PaulP

OK I just realized that referencing session state doesn't work for lists used by Enkitec's NavBar plugin solution. It does reference the &<ITEM>. correctly for normal APEX lists. Anyone know how to reference session state when using Enkitec's NavBar plugin solution?

Sometimes Undo is "Undo Save History State for Image"...

Anyone know why the Undo command occasionally produces "Undo Save History State for Image" rather than a proper undo of the last operation?

I am aware of your contribution to this forum and genuinely have utmost respect for what you say, however without getting too heavily into the semantics of the meaning of the word “bug” I would truly appreciate your thought on this …
b_gossweiler wrote:
If you export (or also print) an image, an entry is inserted into the develop history of the image. Although these steps (export, print, ...) cannot be physically undone, the undo removes this history step from the develop history of the image. This makes sense and - IMHO - is not a bug at all.
Beat
Would it not be reasonable that when a user requests an “undo” that they would expect this to undo the last thing “they” did regardless of what any background task is doing?
If this does occur when performing some background task on several hundred or thousand images does this mean that they could struggle to actually achieve any meaningful undo operation on what they are currently working on because they could be attempting to undo many state changes?      If so, could one consider that from a user’s perspective the undo mechanism is actually broken in this scenario?
If they request an “undo” and it does not perform to the users reasonably expected behaviour would it not reasonably be considered at least undesirable if not a bug?
If they perform an “undo” and they get this message have they actually undone something which might be important?
Even if it has no ill effects the message alone could be unsettling and confusing to users?
You say it makes sense and I know I’m slow, but I would not expect a user to see this message when the user wants to undo for example the modification to exposure or other slider they have just changed.
I’m not hung up on this as I have seen no ill effects other than mild inconvenience; however I would respectively appreciate your views on how this “makes sense” from a user’s perspective.

Clear session state for related application/page

I have an application item I want to clear and I am not sure what is
the correct session state process type to select
I am reading about the different state process but I am not sure.
I thought it was
Clear Cache for Items (ITEM,ITEM,ITEM) but this item has to be on a page.
What would be the appropriate one to select to clear an application item
Clear Cache For Applications (removes all session state for listed applications)
Clear Cache For Current Application (removes all session state for current application)
Clear Cache For Current Session (removes all state for current session)
Clear Cache for Items (ITEM,ITEM,ITEM)
Clear Cache for all Items on Pages (PageID,PageID,PageID)
Reset Preferences (remove all preferences for current user)
Set Preference to value of Item (PreferenceName:ITEM)
Set Preference to value of Item if item is not null (PreferenceName:ITEM)
Howard

How do I name the application item.. I tried the following.
itemName
:itemName
application:itemName
and neither of these 2 work. Did I miss anything.

ALV: how to save context space for large tables ?

Dear collegues,
We are displaying an ALV table that is quite large. Therefore, the corrsponding DDIC structure and the WD context is large. This has an impact on performance and the load size of the program. Now we will enhance the ALV table again.
Example: for an icon and its explaining tooltip that are displayed in the ALV: there is are context fields required like "SOURCE_FIELDNAME" for the tooltip as well as for for the icon. They need a lot of characters for each tooltip and icon).
Question: do you have an idea, how to save context space for those ALV fields ?
Best regards,
Christian

>We are displaying an ALV table that is quite large.
Do you mean quite large as in a large number of columns or as in a large number of rows (or both)? I assume that the problem is probably more related to a large number of rows. For very large tables, you should consider using the table instead of the ALV. For very large tables you can even use a technique called context paging to keep only a subset of the data in the context memory at a time. Here is a recent blog that I created on the topic with demonstrations of different techniques for table sharing, shared memory, and context paging when dealing with large tables in Web Dynpro ABAP:
