Can i use forms 9i for client server applicaitons

Hi,
I have to build a client/server application.Right now, we are using oracle 9i and developer suite 10g. In one of the articles on OTN, it says that from forms 9i onwards, it's not supporting client/server model. Do i have to use 6i for this.
Thank you.
Sree.

The last Forms version that can be run in c/s mode is 6i.

Client\server Forms

Oracle Forms6i in a client\server environment is a great product that still works very well for us. We do not need (or want) a web-based solution. Our system only needs to support our in-house users (about 400 currently).
I am very disappointed in the direction that Oracle is forcing us to go (web-based) if we want to stay with the Oracle tools that we know well. This isn't so much a request for help, it's more an attempt to communicate to the Oracle Forms manager(s) that going away from client\server is very disappointing to us and looks to be a bad business decision.

Mark,
I must appologize, but I though that things are easier to search and find on this forum. I tried for half an hour but wasn't able to spot the main thread ;-(
The summary of it is that there was a big discussion on this forum after Oracle announced its desupport date for Forms and Reports client/server (sometime in July if I remember well). Along with this desupport date there was a discussion whether or not Oracle Forms supports XP. The initial decision of not supporting XP was reverted and XP now is supported since patch 13.
For client/server the desupport date is January 1st 2005 for error correction and January 1st 2008 for extended assistance support. Thus Forms6i client/server will be around until end of 2007.
Most discussions on this forum were about the cost going with moving Forms to the Web, especially keeping in mind that client/server runtime was for free.
Another issue was the size of the Oracle9iAS installation which is 6GB all in all though Forms users may not use all the Oracle Application Server components.
Last but not least, many customers didn't feel ready to move their applications to the Web in this period of time, especially those that run character mode applications.
The installation issue gets fixed with the upcoming Oracle Application Server 10g which has a installation option that only installs the software required to run Forms and Reports.
The migration is assisted by a Forms Migration Assistant in Forms9i as well as material that we compiled and published on OTN. The WebUtil library finally was developed to close the gap between client/server functionality and teh Web functionality.
I can't talk about pricing, because this is not in the scope of my professional work, but OTN offered a special upgrade promotion for Forms users when moving their applications to teh Web.
Client/server as it is in Forms6i will not come back, this is how it seems.
There have been discussions on this forum if one could simulate client/server using the Forms Web components installed on a local client. Webstart was mentioned as one possible solution as it would allow you to have Forms applications started and run from an icon on the user desktop. Currently there are some investigations in Forms development going into this direction.
The majority of customers that posted their opinion on the client/server desupport did not like the client/server desupport plan at all.
The OTN forum postings where brought to Oracle senior management attention by Forms Product Managers monitoring this list.
The benefit of a Web only version of Forms - and you may disagree - is integration with the J2EE stack Oracle has within Oracle9iAS and OracleAS 10g.
J2EE is a technology that more and more customers evaluate for future development efforts. Having Forms integrating with J2EE applications(as seamlessly as possible)is the best way to make sure that Forms users can leverage their investment in the Forms technology. Even more, you can extend Forms applications with J2EE or have it communicating with it (the same applies to Reports)
Many new features that we implemented in Forms6i and Forms9i worked on the Web only (SSO, Enterprise Manager monitoring, client side Java etc).
Mark, hope that this summary gives you a good idea of what the discussions were about and that we do care of what customers do with Forms.
Just in case that I missed an argument or presented it too positive (my memory is subjective and not perfect), I am sure that the forum members which already contributed to this posting will add additional comments. Others may join in too.

Calling Web Form from Client-Server Form

Hi. I have an existing Client-Server Form (6i) still in production that needs to call a Web Form and pass it a parameter. Obviously I can't use Call Form or New Form from the client-server version, but can I somehow issue a command line (including a parameter) that opens the Web Form? Any suggestions for accomplishing this?
I can create a command line like this, but have no idea how to pass a parameter to my Web Form. The Web Form named participants which has a Parameter defined named 'p_participant'.
*"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" http://9.35.32.206:7777/forms/frmservlet?form=participants*
I can also create a command line to open a web form like this to:
*"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" http://9.35.32.205:7777/forms/html/sas2.htm*
Where the sas2.htm looks like this:
*<html>*
*<body onload="document.menulaunch.submit();">*
Launching File Generation...
If the application does not load in 30 seconds then click the button below:
*<form name=menulaunch action=http://9.35.32.205:7777/forms/frmservlet?config=FileGeneration method=post>*
*<script>*
var wshshell=new ActiveXObject("wscript.shell");
var username=wshshell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%orauser%");
var pw=wshshell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%orapass%");
document.write("<input type=hidden name=userid value="+username+"/"+pw+"@sparc20*>")*
*</script>*
*<input type=submit value=Launch>*
*</form>*
*</body>*
*</html>*
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Simply add to your URL as follows:
http://9.35.32.206:7777/forms/frmservlet?form=participants&otherparams=p_participant=<SOME VALUE>I assume you plan to use HOST to make this call. I would recommend something like this:
HOST ('cmd /c start iexplore.exe "http://9.35.32.206:7777/forms/frmservlet?form=participants&otherparams=p_participant=<SOME VALUE>"');

Run a report in reports server calling it from a client/server form

How can I run a report in reports server calling it from a client/server form ?
Thanks

In client server mode you can use RUN_PRODUCT built-in. Lookup help for this built-in for more details.
Best of luck!

How can I create a Forms9i Runtime for client distribution

Currently we have an application developed in Forms 5.0.6.8.0 our Database has been upgraded to 9i DB. The application is working fine with this combination but we want to upgrade Forms in order to get Oracle Support. We just get the Developer Suite 9i package and we're trying to test our application with this software.
How can I create the client runtime for Forms 9i?
My application will work with Win 95 and 98?
Thanks.

Oracle9i Forms is web-only. Forms 6i is the last release of Forms to have client/server and character mode.
You can test Forms from the Builder by installing iDS. To deploy Forms using iAS follow the documentation. It's all there in the deployment guide.
iAS and Forms doco can be found on OTN.

D2k in client server mode & web environment

Hi friends,
I am using forms 6i with oracle 9i. I have a couple of questions, please advice.
I have developed couple of forms in client server mode and this would be added to an existing application. I have been informed now that the application is web based. I have no idea about how a form can be coded_for or deployed_in web based environment.
Is there any provision to convert the forms developed in client server mode so that we can use it in web based application ?
what is the effort required in doing this conversion ?
Do we have any docs for using d2k forms in a web environment ?
Plz feel free to point out if I have missed any detail without which it is difficult to answer this question.
Thanks

Hello,
It is very easy to migrate from C/S to web, because of the portabilty of the Forms design code (.fmb)
All you have to do, is to recompile the modules with the new binaries. The only "but" is that some instructions have been depreciated, and you have to rewrite them (often client machine interactions, that are covered by the Webutil library).
goto the OTN Forms home page, then click the Migration link.

Using KeyFilter Java Bean in Client Server Environment - Mr. Grover hope u r here !

Hello,
I will be grateful if some one can tell me how to use Keyfilter
java bean in Forms 6.0 client server environment.
Our requirement is to restrict entry in text field to just upper
case characters at key punch rather than after navigating out of
field.
Thanx in advance.

Are you using
http://otn.oracle.com/sample_code/products/forms/content.html#jbp
jc
Since the readme file shows exactly what you have to do.
Basically you set the implementation class for a text field to
point to this class and make sure this class is accessable.

HST6i, Client/Server env. Forms runtime crash!

We successfuly instaled HSD6i on Forms Server. But we also need to run forms on client/server environment.
When I start HSU or generated app. in Forms Runtime (ver 6.0.8.11.3) and do nothing other than navigate from menu to form 'Users' for example, form opens but the very
next time whole runtime environment dissaper (crash with no error message).
How can I manage this problem?
null

I changed all 'automatic' to <unspecified> but my forms are still crashing with access violation at uiw60.dll. It seems that only forms with item groups though. I also found another posting here by Ivica Coric about "Problem with Item Groups" where people mentioned forms with item groups would crash. It seems that this is my problem. But changing 'automatic' to something else still doesn't solve my problem. Any ideas? Thanks.
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Headstart Team:
Uros,
I have discovered what makes this happen. As you have read in the the install guide, you need to change a number of properties in the object library. Specifically, the color "Automatic", which is very useful in webforms, is problematic on client/server.
Because most items in the generated forms subclass from the object library, you would ideally only need to recreate the fmx files and be rid of the "Automatics".
Unfortunately, there's one place where the generator uses the object library properties, but DOES NOT SUBCLASS BUT COPIES these properties into the generated forms. This happens with boilerplate graphics that result from item group decorations, and then only when the item group decoration has a prompt! Here the color of the CG$TITLE visual attribute is used, but not subclassed. This also explains why you solved it by regenerating the problematic forms.
To solve this for the applications you cannot regenerate, open the fmbs, navigate to the Canvas, and then to the Graphics. You'll find the culprit there soon enough.
Kind regards,

Distributing runtime client/server forms?

I know C/S forms is not supported any more, but C/S forms runtime doesn't require a client license and that is still an advantage.
I want to know if there is some way to create an installation package, that could be distributed to customers and included the forms/reports runtime along the application forms/reports executables, so the customers don't have to buy a forms license.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Damisetty,
How have you handled when installing in different versions of Windows, i.e. if you prepare the installation on Windows 2000 does it work for installing on Windows XP or the other way around?
Besides the technical issue, there is the licensing issue, have you used this method for customers that just buy the DB, without forms?
Could any of the Oracle folks throw some light on the subject?
Regards.

Running forms 6i on client without installed runtime !

Dear proffesionals, what do you think about code below-we tried to enable our users to run applications developed in Forms 6i, without installed runtime on their machines. Is this solutions good, and why ? We installed forms6i runtime on the server, and make batch script (with code below), and make .exe file from that. Than we send link to users with locations of that .exe file? Is this way possible to run application through VPN ?
Thanks in advance,
Adnan

In order to distribute a Forms 6i application to a client you really only have three (3) choices.
1. Install the Forms Runtime on each PC (truely distributed application).
2. Deploy the application using desktop virtualization (Citrix, etc). This option requires a Virtualization server.
3. Web Deployed. (This requires the addition of an Application server and does require some type of installation on the client (the Oracle Jinitiator), but this can be automated with the Web Deployment.) Check out this link [Forms 6i Documenation|http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/6i_forms.html] and scroll to the bottom and view the "Oracle Forms Developer Release 6i: Deploying Forms Applications to the Web with Oracle Forms Server" document.
Hope this helps.
