Java swing/visual components in an Oracle Form

Hello,
Has someone used visual javabeans embedded in Oracle Forms ?
is there a special api or componente to use?
I want to embed a jclass javabean in an Oracle Form (oracle forms client)
any help will be welcome, thanks

There are examples of white papers on OTN which show how you can integrate Java Beans into the Forms UI.
You may have some success with Swing but forms is based on AWT/EWT of which there was only and old (and not
very good) Swing version.
As I said - check out the white papers and you can try the demos which are on the Sample Code page.

Cannot load Java plug-in and access R12 Oracle form from client

Hi, one of my user cannot open Oracle form when accessing R12 environment using IE6. After selecting responsibility and menu, it got stuck after 50% processing when trying to load Java applet. It never got completed even after waiting for 2-3 hours.
Is there any browser setting that needs to be modified? I checked popup blocker and activeX setting. All seem to be in order. Kindly assist. Thanks.

Hi,
What is the difference between this client and other clients?
Delete the browser cache/history files and check then. If this does not help, enable trace for JRE (as per Note: 549423.1 - How to enable tracing and logging for Sun JRE (Native Plug-in)) and see if it shows any errors when you encounter this issue.

EDI Problem: no visual components

Sometimes when I move my project from a machine to another, I have no visual components but just <f:form> etc instead of viewing the components wich is really a problem for me. If I move Jdeveloper directory with my project files I have no problems.
Any idea would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Anybody has any idea? You have a loop somewhere in your program so the GUI never get a chance to repaint itself.
This is first time I'm using JComponent for painting and I guess this might be a problem. Here is a simple example that works:

How to deploy oracle forms + J2EE application in single OC4J instance

There are some modules, which are developed in Java/J2EE, which are invoked from Oracle forms application. Currently this java application is
deployed in separate OC4J instance.
Could you please help us how to combine this forms +J2ee application in single ear file,
And this ear file has to be deployed in one OC4J instance.

Maybe have a look at :

Java Swings Vs Flex which is better?

Hi,
I do not know whether this is the right place to post this thread. We are planning to replace Java Swings client with Adobe Flex GUI. So I am in the process of analyzing the performances and advantages of Flex over Java Swings.
So, Can any one kindly let me know whether Flex supports all the features of Java Swings (like components... etc).
Actually my backend server is also Java and the communication between client and server is based on CORBA.
So, considering all these constraints please comment on this.
Regards,
Purush.

Both support object-oriented GUI development. The same core ideas apply to both, so the jump for a developer isn't too intense. Perhaps the largest difference is that Flex has XML layout files which is a nice plus (although many abuse the capability of injecting logic into it as well). JavaFX is the Java-world answer to Flex, so you may want to play around with that first since it will be more familiar.

There is no automatic way to do this in JDeveloper. I know there are some Oracle Partners offering forms to java conversion, I don't know how much of their tools are automated and done with JDeveloper. With JDeveloper+ADF you basically rewriting the Forms application from scratch (and using ADF is helpful during this process).

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.

Calling Java screens from Oracle Forms application

I am working with a client that has a large Oracle forms application. Since rewriting the entire application in Java is not an option at this time, the strategic direction is that any new modules that are to be created for the application are to be done in Java and called from the Forms menu. The decision as to what tool to use to develop the Java modules is still under debate. What is the best (most seamless) way to do this...calling a Java screen from a Forms application? If anyone has any experience in this, or can direct me to some literature on it, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

This is a web app in Forms/Reports 10g R2 running off Oracle AS and an Oracle db. The challenge for us is that the direction is that any new enhancements (screens) are to be built using Java (in either ADF Faces or Swing, another point for debate later) and then called from the Forms app. The business client is only paying for the enhancement. They don't care about moving off Forms to Java, so any extra work on the part of IT to do this, has to be fairly minimal and doable within the project budget. The movement to Java is an IT direction. Is there a way to do this without having to build a java framework for the entire Forms application (which I assume would take some time and involve retesting the entire app)?

Mixing Java with Oracle Forms 11g

What's going on is I wrote a program for work that allows the user to upload a document from their computer onto the database and then download it back later. Now I have to take that and integrate it into a button in Oracle Forms because our actual program runs from Forms. I imported the jar into the form and wrote a button with code I found online (modified slightly for my own use of course):
DECLARE
     jo ora_java.jobject;
     rv varchar(100);
     ex ora_java.jobject;
BEGIN
     JO := Upload.new;
     RV := Upload.startUploadPage(JO);
EXCEPTION
     WHEN ORA_JAVA.JAVA_ERROR then
          message('Unable to load Upload page, ' || ORA_JAVA.LAST_ERROR);
     WHEN ORA_JAVA.EXCEPTION_THROWN then
          ex := ORA_JAVA.LAST_EXCEPTION;
          message('Java Error');
END;
but when I tried to compile it I got:
Error 306 at line 8, column 8
wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'STARTUPLOADPAGE'
the java method that is supposed to be called here is:
public static String StartUploadPage() {
new Upload();
return Upload.StartUploadPage();
I did get from someone that apparently as written my code wont work anyway because apparently the jar importer in Forms doesnt transfer UI (ie Java Swing) and that in order to get the UI to transfer I would have to write a JavaBean on top of my code... but 1 I have no clue what a JavaBean is and the research I have done so far about it has just confused me more... and 2 I'm not sure what that has to do with the error considering that the method that is supposed to be being called by the line that threw the error doesn't have any JFrames or Java Swing of any kind connected to it... there is a tiny bit of Swing in the class to open up the first form that has the buttons for upload and download in it but that is all. I have 4 classes in that jar... 3 are the various Java Swing pages and have the absolute minimum logic in them possible... and the 4th one is the one that starts everything going, has the main class, and any serious logic that needs to be done the needed values are passed to that class and that class does all the work... that 4th class is the one that is being called in the PL/SQL. If it isnt any trouble could I maybe get a little help from someone on:
1. How to write a JavaBean to allow my program to work the way it is supposed to in Forms and
2. Why I am getting this error and how to make it go away

Simplemente deberias utilizar la webutil, no hace falta programar nada nuevo, con la webutil puede transferir de un puesto cliente a la database, o viceversa.
