Java-style buttons in Oracle Forms 6i

Hey there,
Does anyone know how to create buttons with curved edges in Oracle Forms 6i? Something like those Swing components in Java?
Thanks
Al

Alex,
for Forms on the web you can use PJCs. The Forms 10g demos (http://download.oracle.com/otn/other/general/forms10gdemos9_0_4_2.zip) and the Forms 9i demos have a sample Java class for this. The same solution should work in 6i as well.

Problem with Image IO jre on Oracle Form

I'm using PJC to run my Text Editor program from Oracle Form. The Editor has an Image drag & drop option and I have to upgrade the jre with Image I/O API for this functionality. To upgrade jre the tool 'jai_imageio_1_0_01-lib-windows-i586-jre' needs to be installed. When I upgrade jre with this tool and run my program independently from Oracle Form, it runs well but when I run this right there from Oracle Form it doesn't run and exception is thrown on javax.imageio and other packages that are part of that tool even though the Oracle Developer's jdk is upgraded with this tool. Could anyone help me resolve this problem?

Hi,
This is a JDeveloper help forum, the Formsforum can be found at Forms Now you might think that Forms developers don't understand Java well enough, they do however understand teh Forms context and this is important to answr the question.
a) Which Java version does your ben require?
b) Are you using JInitiator or JavaPlugin (Jinitiator only supports Java 1.3)
c) Is your PJC signed? Note that running an app stand alone as a Java app does not require special grants. Running it within a JavaApplet - as Forms is - does execute teh bean in a security sandbox, for which reasons the jar file must be signed and the public key be available in the Forms certdb.txt file (assuming Jinitiator)
d) An exception stack trace gives more information than "Oracle Form it doesn't run and exception is thrown on javax.imageio and other packages", which is meanlingless to me and others. Teh stack trace canbe copied from teh JInitiator console
I recommend resending this question to the Forms forum

To set access key for push button in oracle forms 11g

Dear Team,
I have following setup:-
We are using oracle database 11gR2
Oracle Forms & reports : 11.1.2
O.S : Windows 7 Professional
We have migrated oracle forms version from 6i to 11g
In oracle forms 6i in save button's property palette we set access key as 'S', so when we press alt+S cursor move to save button, same is not working in oracle forms 11g.
What changes I have to made in new version so that after pressing alt+S cursor will move to save button.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.

You will need to define your custom key map in the key mapping file you use. Typically fmrweb.res or fmrpcweb.res. Edit the file in a text editor and take a look to figure out where you need to make the change.This is wrong! The OP is talking about the Access Key (key mnemonic's) of a button. This has nothing to do with the mapping of keys in the frmweb.res, etc., files.
@parapr, You don't mention the Java version installed and you don't mention if your OS is 32-bit or 64-bit. Likely, this issue could be related to an incompatible Java version. We use Access Keys in our 11g R2 application and they work just fine. Our Java version is 1.6.0_31. If you are using Java 1.7.0 - this version is not yet certified with Oracle Forms and I would recommend you downgrade to 1.6.0 (latest version).

Problem with Image IO jar on Oracle Form

I'm using a PJC as a TextEditor on Oracle Form. The PJC uses JAI ImageIO jar that holds javax.imageio package. When I use the PJC right from Oracle Form it doesn't work whereas it works well independently. Please have a look on JInitiator Console message given below and let me know if possible how to get around this:
Drag Enter
Source: java.awt.dnd.DropTarget@1abd68
Drag Exit
Possible flavor: application/x-java-file-list; class=java.util.List
Exception occurred during event dispatching:

I need to tell that if I unjar my jar used for pjc I find that ok for javax.imageio package and also if I run my program other than on Oracle Form, it runs fine. I know regarding the signing issue of jar required to run pjc , so don't get concerned of it.
Thanks
Rashed

Hi...thanks for your suggestion. Which JavaPlugin do you suggest to implement? If you mean to upgrade the jre that is an installer found for various jdk versions, I have that...in that case I only need to know which version should I use. Moreover, installing that tool the jre of jdk gets upgraded...I don't know how to upgrade Jinitiator...please let me know this issue.

How do you create THIS "grid" in Oracle Forms

Hi,
I am new to Forms. I have to develop a grid very similar to the one shown here.
How can you create the grid in the bottom??
I can't see using any of the standard Oracle toolbox items (like multi-record blocks) for this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
User 122...

Hi Soofi,
Appreciate your quick response.
In the image, can you see a huge grid?
Grid column headings are days of the week, Mon, Tue, Wed etc.
Grid Rows also have names, like Room, Status and Rm. Type.
Cells have various values in various colors (red, blue, green etc) and signs like ">>".
Can you see that??
My question is, how to create a grid like this in Oracle Forms??? We cannot do it using a multi record block.
So, how have they done it??? The form in the image is an actual Oracle Form from a hotel reservation system.
