Last release of Application Server that supports Forms

Hello Everybody,
I heard that Oracle plans to give up Forms. Could someone tell me what is the last release of Application Server that supports Forms?
Or where could I read more on the issue?
Thank you in advance.
daniela

you see, questions like this were very emotional discussed.
The first time I hear "forms is dead", when Oracle went from charactermode forms 3 to forms 4.0.
Each big new release and "forms was dead"
I bet, that I'll hear this the next 10 or 20 years! And then (maybe) java-developer are so productive developing their applications like forms-developer do it today.

Looking for a client/server that supports multiple protocol and delivery

Hi all, I don't know if this the right place to ask my question,here it goes.
I am looking to develop a client-server that supports multiple protocols such as HTTP, HTTPS etc. I am looking for a framework( i don't know if that is correct or I need some kind of web-service (soap etc)) that would manage connection, security etc. I would like to like to devote most of my time in developing business objects with multiple delivery mechanism such as sending serilized java objects, xml message or soap message, or in some case JMS message as well. So I need a client server that can come in via TCP/IP or HTTP or anyother industry standard protocol and I should be able to service him with pub/sub model and also request/response model as well.
I don't know if I had explained what I need, I would like to know what technologies I should be evaluating and which direction I should be heading... Also the server I'm developing should be free of Java constraints if needed...
Also this service is not webbased service as now but if need arises I should have a flexibilty to make them web enabled in future. Also I would like to work with open source webservers or appservers if I need

Inxsible wrote:I installed i3 - along with the i3status - which I still have to figure out. I am liking what I see as of now. It reminds me of wmii -- when I used it way back when. However I do not like the title bar. I would much rather prefer a 1 px border around the focused window.
"i3 was created because wmii, our favorite window manager at the time, didn't provide some features we wanted (multi-monitor done right, for example), had some bugs, didn't progress since quite some time and wasn't easy to hack at all (source code comments/documentation completely lacking). Still, we think the wmii developers and contributors did a great job. Thank you for inspiring us to create i3. "
To change the border of the current client, you can use bn to use the normal border (including window title), bp to use a 1-pixel border (no window title) and bb to make the client borderless. There is also bt which will toggle the different border styles.
Examples:
bindsym Mod1+t bn
bindsym Mod1+y bp
bindsym Mod1+u bb
or put in your config file
new_window bb

Making a chat server that supports multiple clients!

This is what I got so far:
import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;
public class Server{
     public static void main(String [] args){
          ServerSystem ssys = new ServerSystem();
          ssys.ServerMethod();
class ServerSystem{
     static ServerSocket ss;
     public void ServerMethod(){
          try{
               ss = new ServerSocket(27700);
               boolean listening = true;
               for(;listening;){
                    ClientThread ct = new ClientThread(ss.accept());
                    ct.start();
                    ss.close();
          }catch(Exception e){
               System.exit(0);
class ClientThread extends Thread{
     ServerSystem ssys = new ServerSystem();
     ServerSocket ss = ssys.ss;
     public void run(){
          try{
               BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(ss.getInputStream()));
               PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(ss.getOutputStream(),true);
          }catch(Exception e){
               System.out.println(e);
}3 Errors:
ClientThread ct = new ClientThread(ss.accept()); CONSTRUCTOR : CANNOT RESOLVE SYMBOL
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(ss.getInputStream())); METHOD : CANNOT RESOLVE SYMBOL InputStream
               PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(ss.getOutputStream(),true); METHOD : CANNOT RESOLVE SYMBOL OutputStream
First of all, how do I fix those. Second, am I on the right track for a server that supports multiple clients? Please help me with this.
Thanks!

well, since I feel kinda bad for just re-posting the link to the API docs previously posted by supermicus I shall elaborate - though, since my reading for comprehension skills are clearly lacking, I will not attempt to teach you to read.
This conversation should be held in the "New to Java Technology" forum, BTW.
Java derives a lot of its power from the huge library of classes that ships with it, which is called the API. These classes are grouped into packages roughly along functional lines, so you should expect to see some relationship between the classes found in a given package - the java.net.* classes all pertain to networking. The API documentation describes three things about each class - fields that are available, constructors that you can use, and methods that you can call. Basically, anything at all that you can do with a given class (ThreadGroup, for instance) can be found in the documentation for that class. Typically (for non-static classes), you call the constructor that seems most appropriate via the "new" keyword, and, using the reference returned from that, you call the method that does what you want. It's all outlined in the docs.
If you don't get what you need from the docs, then read the appropriate Tutorial (also in the list of links to the left of your screen) find the one on Threads and off you go.
I hope this helped.

The Best Releas Of Oracle Application Server 10g (BI Forms&Reports)

hi all
i am asking u to loock with me to the best solution for my environment
becuse we want to upgrade our Environment work :
Current Work Environment:
- Oracle Database Server R 8i as (database)
- Oracle Developer 2000 as (Forms & Reports)
our comunity is welling to upgrade our work to 10g
and we are asking for the best release that we can use to a complish the best senario for our environment .
i have the current seggestion :
- Upgrade the database to R 10gR2 (Export&Import).
- Install & Migrate the developer side as Infrastruction Appliction Server 10gR(10.1.2.0 ) .
- Install the Middle Tire as BI Forms&Reports & Migrate our whole system to the new Release using developer Suite 10g .
i am asking you'r seggestions & Best Bractice in my case .
also what is the most Stable relase we can use .
thanks .

Hi Ibrahim,
You can do an easier installation by only using base release of 10.1.2.0.2. What I stated would be good practice:
By * DB 10.2.0.3 ---- > u mean (Database Version) => Yes, use Database version 10.2.0.3
By * Identity Management 10.1.4.0.1 (OID/SSO) -----> u mean (Application Server infrastructure) => Yes, use Identity Management 10.1.4.0.1 instead of the infrastructure on Application Server 10.1.2.0.2
By * Application Server 10.1.2.0.2 -----> u mean (Middle Tire Forms&Report Services) => Yes, use Application Server 10.1.2.0.2 as middle-tier. When installed, upgrade it to 10.1.2.2 (with the latest patchset)
By * Patch Application Server DB client to 10.1.0.5 ----> u mean what? => Before you upgrade AS to 10.1.2.2 it's mandatory to upgrade the Database client software in the Application Server 10.1.2.0.2 home to 10.1.0.5. Default is 10.1.4. You'll see database client version by for instance starting SQL*Plus.
For your Developer (Forms) upgrade: Forms 4.0/4.5 - 6i -> 10g. See: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/htdocs/upgrade/index.html. If you have tons of Forms, then I recommend using a tool like the great PITTS.CON (http://www.pitss.com/en/pcon/index.htm).

Node id does not exist for the current application server id on forms

Hi,
We have a Two node RAC setup on which Oracle e-business suite R12.0.6 is setup
We have CP and DB on two RAC nodes and Forms and Web on two separate server(non-RAC)
while opening oracle forms we are getting" Node id does not exist for the current application server id "
on checking Concurrent manager logfile we founf no error, we matched Application Server id from DBC file of all the 4 nodes with application table
Fnd_nodes... which matches ( there is no mismatch of application server id) .
We have also tried commenting the application server id in dbc file and executed adgendbc.sh to regenarate dbc file but we are facing the same issue.
Also tried to clear setup with fnd_conc_clone.clean setup and again executing autoconfig on db and application tier but no result yet.
Can some one guide as to which file has this message "Node id does not exist for the current application server id "
and what could be the reason for this.
Help is appreciated.
Regards,
Milan

I already tried the mentioned metalink note id but it did not work.What did you try exactly?
Can u help out as from where am i getting the message "Node id does not exist for the current application server id" It is already mentioned in the doc referenced above -- From the dbc file under $FND_SECURE directory.
i mean from which file does the above message comes.Please clean FND_NODES table as per (How to Clean Nonexistent Nodes or IP Addresses From FND_NODES [ID 260887.1]), run AutoConfig on the database tier then on the application tier and check then.
Thanks,
Hussein

Creating a file on application server that exceeds 10 Million charecters

Hello All,
We have custom IDocs which carry Strings of 1062 characters in each of their segments.
Now the requirement is to create a single string file out of these idocs data.
It is expected that each of these IDocs can go up to having more than 70,000 segments.
So, now when this is concatenated into one single string it can go upto 7 Million charecters.
My questions are:
1. Can we create a text file with so many charecters in a single line or is there any limitation for this ?
2. I have found a datatype CHAR30000, using which i'm currently concatnating around 30 segment data and then writing onto the file. Now once I wrote a single line, how can I set the pointer to End of line ?
3. Is there any limitation in ABAP to create such a long string text file using method mentioned above ?
Thanks for responding back!!
-Sri

No, It should be something like below.. for writing the file onto application server , which aint working though...
*Writing output data into the file.
lw_endofline = 30000.
OPEN DATASET p_fileop FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
LOOP AT int_output INTO wa_output.
    TRANSFER wa_output-sdata TO p_fileop.
    "SET DATASET p_fileop POSITION lw_endofline.
    SET DATASET p_fileop POSITION lw_endofline.
    lw_endofline = lw_endofline + 30000.
ENDLOOP.
CLOSE DATASET p_fileop.

Unale to print pdf files in oracle application server using oracle forms

Hi
We are using oracle developer suite 10g(10.1.2.3.0) in Windows vista. (test environment)
Oracle application server 10g(10.1.2.3.0) in Hp-UX 11iv3 (production environment)
We are able to print pdf files in test environment from oracle forms using the below command:
host('/usr/bin/lp -d p9775hplaser '||'/ashome/output/'||:print_file);
But while declaring to the live environment it is not working
host('cat '||:pdf_print_file||' | acroread -toPostScript | /usr/bin/lp -dp9775hplaser');
but when the above command is put in hp-ux cmd prompt it is workinh"'cat '||:pdf_print_file||' | acroread -toPostScript | /usr/bin/lp -dp9775hplaser'";
Kind ly tell me whether the problem i with the host command and some other command is available for printing files from forms.

Here is my guess:
declare
AppID PLS_INTEGER;
begin
AppID := DDE.App_Begin('acroread -toPostScript '||file name,DDE.APP_MODE_MINIMIZED);
end;

Hi, just wanna know if PHP can run with Sun one 8 and if possible, is there any guides around?
Cheers

PHP is supported in the Web Server, not the application server.

What is their difference betwwen Sun ONE Application Server and J2EE serv

Sun ONE Application Server is Sun implementation of J2EE server.
But it seems even no Sun ONE Application Server, use J2EE SDK command
j2ee -verbose
we still can launch an Application Server that support EJB, JSP....
what is their difference betwwen Sun ONE Application Server and J2EE server provided by J2EE SDK ?
Thanks,

Sun ONE generally refers to the Sun ONE Application Server version 7.x. This is a J2EE 1.3 compliant application server from Sun. Sun also released a Reference Implementation version (RI) as a requirement of the J2ee 1.3 spec. This is the J2EE server you are refering too. The Sun ONE Application Server 7 is a more robust production ready App Server.
Going forward, Sun combined the 2 seperate groups to include just 1 release. The J2EE 1.4 Reference Implementation is the Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition version 8. SJS AS 8 PE is both free and production ready. Other version will include High Availability, Managing and Monitoring features.
