Implementing Google Search into Apex Application

Hello everyone
I've recently been moved to handling Apex at work so I've been creating applications in my free time. At the moment, I'm working on a game wishlist application, where users can add games to a wishlist, get email updates upon release, etc.
I had the idea that a user can click on a game's title and be brought to a overview of that games details, including a news section where you could see recent news around the title. What I'd like is to integrate Google News into my application and have the search term dynamically change depending on which game the user is viewing.
Would this be possible and what would be the best way of doing it?

Not something I've ever done, but perhaps create a URL based region and define the source as the relevant google URL with your search field substituted in
ie, taking the URL example from 4.1
http://quote.yahoo.com/q?d=b&s=ORCLAnd try changing it to
http://quote.yahoo.com/q?d=b&s=&P1_SEARCH.

How to implement google search in portal application

Hi,
I am using "http://api.google.com/GoogleSearch.wsdl" file to implement google search in portal application. but i am not able to get the search result. how to implement google search. is this "http://api.google.com/GoogleSearch.wsdl" is vaild now ?. how to achieve the soultion.
Regards,
Shanthakumar.

Hi Shanthakumar,
The "GoogleSearch.WSDL" is no longer available as google has replaced it with the new AJAX based searching and they have eventually removed it from public use as well from 7th September 2009. So, I would imagine you would not be able to use the earlier WSDL file for google search. You might have to look in using the new "AJAX Search API". For more information have a look the following links. You can notice "No Longer Available" at the top of the page.

Error in implementing google search in webdynpro application

Hi all,
I downloaded google apis and created a web service model (have a valid license key) and mapped the controller with the model and view to controller .
I am just having one inputfield that is bound to request.....q context attribute and a button that is calling the doGoogleSearch method in controller which in turn is calling a model object so when I am executing this I'm getting this error -
1)Service call exception; nested exception is: java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect
2)no search found'http://www.google.com'
So can u please tell me what to do?
Thank you,

Hi Sirisha,
U r using Proxy to connect Internet. Is this proxy using any authentication of user to access net or u r directly connected to internet when u open any aplication through proxy? If proxy asks for some user name and password to connect to internet then do same thing manually on server on which WAS is installed. When once connection to internet on server is ready then this error won't come.
Your WAS is on the same PC from where you r deploying your application or at remote place?
Just do one thing. Go to your WAS server and there access any one site on internet and then deploy and run your application from anywhere. It should work.
Let me know the status.
Kindly rewards points if it works.

Is it possible to integrate Oracle intermedia search into apex ?(1)

Or do something similar manually yourself in oracle xe ?(2)
(1)I've been reading through part of the documentation of the intermedia search, and find it quite intresting. Better to use that if one can, then to have to do that it manually or yourself. But all I read is about JSP and PSP, and I guess PSP's are used by apex, but I was wondering if there was any way, to integrate intermedia search into apex, so that one can lookup say mp3, video files and images and display them in apex as well. Images may take some work but would I suppose be possible.
However for the other two you need also player software to play both of them. As far as I know this is not integrated into Apex, but could possibly be provided by using the player integrated with a webbrowser, and by linking it to apex. So the browser is launched and plays the video or the audio file or alternatively a player is launched that allows to do that. But correct me if I'm wrong.
(2) Alternatively I was wondering if one could do this, manually in Oracle XE, but then manually, by making tables with blobs and putting the files in there, and then finding somehow a way to get them played by a player, or to have them be put in a directory, and/or erased from that directory, and modify the player, or let it be activated and controlled by some kind of script to look for new files, and then play them off . Could this be done, by adding a parameter new_file_to_play to a message passed to the player, or the program governing the players behavior ?
I know this sound difficult, and it probably is, but it would have its benefits. I suppose a simple answer would by, why not use oracle 10g with intermedia search ? Well because although I expect this to be the preferable choice, the license is rather expensive for me, and if I could get a rudimentary version working on XE, even having to do it myself, and writing the code as well,
it would be ok.
I just wonder could one not, make a table, with a nr, a blob, and then the specific fields for the specific information of that type, and then use a extraction program that extracts that information from a file, and puts it in a xml or csv file, so that say after the images were uploaded, one can load the details in as well ?
It is more work, more complicated, and not as easy to use, but it could work I suppose.
Any comments are welcome.
Best Regards,
Floris

You should be able to add a menu option to Oracle E-Business Suite that just calls out to the URL of your ADF 11g application.

Embed Google Maps into Swing Application

Hi,
I am trying to build a swing application and i need to embed Google map into it.Is there any way to do this? Which component do i use?
I guess i am having some difficulty with this because the Swing component needs to support the complex javascript that Gmaps uses.
Please suggest some solution or API.
Thanks!

Implementing a mediaplayer into my application

h3. Hello,
I am working on a project for school. This involves editing a freeware java program for a Lego NXT robot to function under keyboard input aswell as button input, and implementing a media player into the application so that live video material from the robot can be viewed through the app. The video will be created from an RTP protocol for stream, but I haven't got the slightest idea about how to implement the media player into the application. The app itself is a GUI which holds the buttons to control the NXT robot. The media player is of the type specified in the JMF 2.1.1 as I found JMF most suitable for the situation.
h4. My first try was this:
if(mediaPlayer != null)
mediaPlayer.close();
String location = ("rtp:10.110.110.224:1234");
try{
     MediaLocator ml = new MediaLocator(location);
     if(ml == null)
         System.err.println("Can't build MediaLocator for RTP");
     mediaPlayer = (MediaPlayer) Manager.createPlayer(ml);
catch (NoPlayerException e){
     System.err.println("Error:" + e);
catch (MalformedURLException e){
     System.err.println("Error:" + e);
catch (IOException e){
     System.err.println("Error:" + e);
mediaPlayer.setControlPanelVisible(true);
mediaPlayer.setFixedAspectRatio(true);
mediaPlayer.setPlaybackLoop(false);
mediaPlayer.prefetch ();
addComponent(contentPane, mediaPlayer, 10,28,400,200);
mediaPlayer.start ();addComponent is a method which places the component in a pre-defined container and adds it to the GUI. But somehow, it doesn't recognize the RTP adress specified as the location.
I already tried something with the AVReceive3 class which sun so generously distributed (http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jmf/2.1.1/solutions/AVReceive3.java), but this didn't seem to work aswell.
{noformat}I hope that you can help me find a solution fast,{noformat}
{noformat}best wishes,{noformat}

Get rid of the file:// part of the RTP address. rtp:// is like http:// or file://...it's the prefix telling the URL what protocol to use.
String location = "rtp://10.110.110.224:1234"; I've tried your sollution, but it doesn't seem to work.
I've tried another approach:
* Setting the properties for the mediaplayer object
if(mediaPlayer != null)
            mediaPlayer.close();
//Source for streaming video
String location = "rtsp://localhost:1234";
//String location = "file://C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator/Desktop/Capture.AVI";
try{
            ml = new MediaLocator(location);
            if(ml == null)
                System.err.println("Unable to build MediaLocator");
            DataSource ds = new DataSource(ml);
}I switched to using the localhost, as the stream is intended to be streamed from a server to the client program, and I've tried using a datasource.
HOWEVER, using this approach insists on implementing the 4 standard abstract methods which come with the DataSource constructor:
DataSource ds = new DataSource(ml) {
            public InputStream getInputStream() throws IOException {
                    throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Not supported yet.");
            public OutputStream getOutputStream() throws IOException {
                    throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Not supported yet.");
            public String getContentType() {
                    throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Not supported yet.");
            public String getName() {
                    throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Not supported yet.");
};And after that, it insists on getting rid of the medialocator argument, as I implemented an annonymous class.
I'm sure it's rather obvious that I'm a novice to this stuff... but I really want to fix this, as I could use the experience.

Could not able to login into APEX Application

Hi All,
Finally with the help of Jes and Anthony, I am bale to see Apex login page and Apex Admin login page.
But there are some issues in that, images are not properly displayed and also i could not able to login to admin page and even apex login page...It is showing some Javascript errors.
How shall I resolve them and work on APEX Application.
Thanks & Regards
Vishwanath GNV

Vishwanath,
Is this linked to one of your other posts? If it is a related problem then please try and keep it in one thread because it makes it much much easier for people to follow the flow of 'conversation'. By starting a new thread it makes it difficult to see what has already been tried etc.
Ok...so images and javascript are not working...so the obvious questions are -
1) Did you copy across all the Javascript, images etc as directed in the installation/upgrade guide?
2) Have you tried clearing your browser cache?

Loading a CSV file into APEX application

Hello,
I have a big (1 MB) CSV file that cannot be pumped in via the web interface. I have read in this forum that I need to use sqlldr utility.
Where can I specify in the .ctl file the FORMAT. I need to fill this field in the web GUI with "99.99" because without this I am getting an exception: INVALID NUMBER FORMAT.
Please help, thank you.

for sql*loader demo and example scripts - http://psoug.org/reference/sqlloader.html

SSO for Oracle Apex application

Hi All,
I am working on the requirement where the client want to implement the SSO for the apex application which are in different workspaces.
But not using oracle SSO server :(
The Microsoft active directory is used for authentication.
Please give me some idea how to implement SSO for these apex applications.
Thanks & Regards,
Prutha

Hi,
I am trying to implement Single-Sign On for my Apex applications. Below are the requirement steps:
This is working fine within same WORKSPACE and on single DB, but I need to implement SSO across DB with different workspaces.
1. I have *2 Databases* DB-1 and DB-2. Both are different and running on different machines.
2. On Both DB's Apex is configured.
3. I have to deploy an app which uses internal Application Express account credentials for Login on DB-1
4. From DB-1, after login, I have to provide a link to open another Apex App deployed on DB-2
5. All Apex Apps on both DB's are using same Authentication Schemes.
6. In both DB's I have PAGE SENTRY function for session validation.
Can we configure Apex only once on both DB servers like RAC. Do we have any admin setting in Apex by which we can achieve th motive.
Please help me to implement such functionality using only Apex across different DB's and different Workspaces.
Thanks,
Ismail

Hi,
As far as I know, we can’t directly filter the results by date in Azure Bing search API.
You could only filter results by your logical and code when you have got the result.
Also, you could submit a feature request on this page:

APEX application integration into Java application

Hello,
I'm working on a new APEX application and I would like to integrate that application into an existing Java application.
The integration should be invisible for the end-users. Our application will have the same look and feel as the Java application.
The existing menu of the Java app will be extended with a new link. This link will then call our application.
Visually I was thinking about using an Iframe to display the content of the APEX application inside the Java generated xHTML.
This is however not the biggest issue.
We are working in a secure context and we thus need to make sure that our APEX application doesn't create a backdoor on the
security mechanism provided by the Java app.
Some options have come to mind, but the one that look best is this:
We keep the java application as the single point of entry for our end-users and make sure that the apex application is "hidden".
We could do this by means of some re-routing code in the java application so that the incomming requests there are send to the correct server (java or apex).
Then we will need to capture the response of the APEX application and place it inside the Java generated xHTML. The combined content is then send to the client.
Or we could place a reverse proxy server that does this for us.
The goal is thus that we can rely on the existing java application to cover the security and the navigation structure.
Any ideas on this ?
How-to's or other options ?
thanks & regards
Karel

Firefox stops responding for about 30 seconds after hitting Enter on any website's search bar, even the built in Google search or when signing into Facebook.

As the title says, I run Firefox Beta 6 and just reinstalled Windows 7 Professional on my system due to seriously messed up Windows update, and when I downloaded and installed Firefox, I noticed every time I searched using the Google search next to the URL bar, FF would freeze for about 30 seconds to a minute, with nothing running in the background and no other programs running. I also disabled all Add-Ons and it still continues to act up, so that leads me to believe it's a FF issue, but even on every other website when using the search bar as soon as I hit enter, it locks up and stops responding then goes back to normal about 30 secs later, or if I sign into Facebook it does the same, and even when I had the FF 5 Beta before I had to reinstall I never had a problem.

I managed to solve this problem as my computer has been giving me problems lately and completely froze on me the other day thanks to Game Booster Beta 3 and completely screwed with Windows 7 to the point I almost had to reinstall again, but I managed to fix all my problems and if you would just follow my link here over to my post on Seven Forums then it would be easier then explaining it again.
http://www.sevenforums.com/system-security/180714-windows-7-professional-64-bit-logs-but-almost-frozen-3.html#post1550277 The reason for this is if you shut down your computer while running Firefox, it's possible you corrupted your User Profile for FF and if you follow my instructions you can repair it instead of making a new, so just follow the link, read my post and if you have anymore problems just message me on Seven Forums. Have a nice day and hopefully you get it all fixed. :b
