Is the BELL a safe built-in?

Hi:
We recently migrated to Oracle Forms 10g. Our middle tier runs in Solaris 10 UNIX boxes. A couple of days I had a conversation with a friend of mine that dealt with issues after migrating to Forms and he categorically stated remove all BELL calls from you app - Remmember the application server does not have a bell. This is my friend so the following question does not even feel right: Should I give any value to his statement?
Boy, that felt dirty and just wrong.
Thanks,
Thomas

The BELL built-in can still be used in a web deployed forms, however it isn't really a useful function in a web form. It causes network traffic just to hear one simple ding. If you need audio alerts in a web form, you would be better served adding a Java bean to your form. At least you can be more creative than "ding".
That said, I recall there being some issues with it (BELL) in the base release, so be sure you are using latest releases. Version 10.1.2.2 is the latest Forms version.

  • Removing the Bell Wire...

    I have read on the internet that removing the bell wire can improve your broadband speed. All the guides on this are on the old sockets. I have a new filtered socket, I have taken the faceplate off and I can see that a wire is connected to terminal 3 which is where the ring wire is connected. If I remove this wire, is it safe and will it make any difference?

  • I tried to install latest OS update. Recd error installing. IT tried to load the upgrade in Safe Mode. Now system will not boot up. IT says I have to do a clean install which loses all data.

    After receiving an error when I try to install the latest update of OS-X, I took my laptop to oour schools IT dept. They tried to run the update in safe mode and then they got an error saying the system could not find the hard drive. Now they want to run a clean install which loses 1000's of docs and pictures. I have Block I exams in med school next Monday and all of my notes and slides are on that hard drive.
    The IT dept took the hard drive out and tried to back it up and they said they other computer could not connect or find my hard drive.
    Major panic....
    I have Norton antivirus and have never found any viruses on the system. I also have a program called ExamSoft which some other students here have noted they had similar crashes. Not sure if that is the issue...

    Several take home messages here:
    always back up before you update.
    always back up anything you don't want to lose. Kind of like flossing. Only floss the teeth you don't want to lose.
    Norton is very, very bad software, and you should get rid of it.
    You don't need antivirus software on your mac. Antivirus software on macs causes more trouble than it is worth.
    Your hard drive may be failing and thus may not be salvageable.
    You could try booting into the recovery partition and seeing if you can repair your hard drive.
    If that doesn't work, then there is a small chance that a third party utility (like Disk Warrior or TechTool) might be able to fix your drive (if it is not failing).
    If that doesn't work, you may be able to send your drive and a lot of cash to a drive recovery service and see if they can get your files off it.
    In the mean time, get notes and slides from a (smart) friend.

  • Error in Creating the Oracle Fail Safe Group during installation on MSCS

  • Can use the same thread safe variable in the different processes?

    Hello,
    Can  use the same thread safe variable in the different processes?  my application has a log file used to record some event, the log file will be accessed by the different process, is there any synchronous method to access the log file with CVI ?
    David

    Limiting concurrent access to shared resources can be better obtained by using locks: once created, the lock can be get by one requester at a time by calling CmtGetLock, the other being blocked in the same call until the lock is free. If you do not want to lock a process you can use CmtTryToGtLock instead.
    Don't forget to discard locks when you have finished using them or at program end.
    Alternatively you can PostDeferredCall a unique function (executed in the main thread) to write the log passing the apprpriate data to it.
    Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.

  • Is it possible to change the compiler that is built into Sun Creator?

    Is it possible to change the compiler that is built into Sun Creator?
    I would like to compile my project to run under the JNI. I have tried to use the command line to run the javah -jni filenames but I always get errors and my assumption is that I need to change or adapt the IDE WITHOUT violating any licensing agreements to get the JNI working in this IDE.
    I would appreciate any help that I could get in regards to this issue whther someone from SUN wants to comment or if any developer's have had this issue and have solved it...

    Okay, I just tried this. I changed the default location of J2SE JDK in the creator conf file. Saved the file.
    For example:
    #netbeans_jdkhome="C:\Program Files\Sun\Creator2_1\java"
    netbeans_jdkhome="C:\Program Files\Java\JDK1.5.0_04"
    On restarting the IDE the new path is taken. To see the change: go to main menu -> Help -> About Java Studio Creator . Go to Detail tab. You will see the values for Java and Java Home changed as per your change in the creator.conf file.
    Hope this helps.

    Hi
    Suppose RFGLBALANCE is your standard program and you have an internal table named I_RFGLBALANCE.
    And lets say your Z program name is Z_SRINIVAS.
    First find out the type of the internal table you want in your Z-program in the standard program. And declare an internal table of similar type in your Z-program.
    I hope you can do this much.
    Later wherever you are putting the below mentioned code.
    SUBMIT RFGLBALANCE WITH selection criteria
    Write the code which i have written.Obviously modify it to suit your requirement.
    Please show what is not working fine so that even anyone else can help you with the problem you are facing.

    Hi All,
    I need to suppress the bell which sounds when Forms does a database interaction like insert/delete/update.
    I am using Forms 4.5 (patch 10) and Oracle 8.0.5
    Any ideas ?
    Thanks in advance,

  • The project was not built since its build path is incomplete

    Hi, Recently I port my project fro bea 8.1 to 10.2 & I am ubale to find following packages... workspace studio alos not able to find teh librraies contabing those files.
    The project was not built since its build path is incomplete. Cannot find the class file for weblogic.management.ManagementException. Fix the build path then try building this project

    -KASH

    It seems this occurs since the required jar files for building the files is not available in the IDE build path.
    The build classpath is the path which is used to find classes that are referenced by your source code. During compilation, this path is used to search for classes outside of your project. As you know th build classpath can be specified for each project. In the project properties, it is referred to as the "Java Build Path Adding a JAR file to the build path : You can add a JAR file stored either in the workbench or anywhere in your file system to the build class path. To add a JAR to your build class path follow these steps: 1>>Select the project, and from its pop-up menu, select Properties. In the Properties dialog,select the Java Build Path page. 2>>Click the Libraries tab. You can now either add a JAR file which is contained in your workspace or which is somewhere else: to add a JAR file which is inside your workspace click the Add JARs button to add an external JAR file click the Add External JARs button.
