Open .pll files in Forms Builder (9i)

When I try to open a library (.pll) in Forms Builder (9i)I get this message: PDE- PER001 Internal Error (Scaba 18).But when I try to open another .pll file in the same directory, I do not get this message. All files I open are in read only mode. When I try to open a .pll file that is not in read only mode, I see this message: PDE- PAL016 Cannot attach library VALIDATE to itself. I hope someone can give me an explanation of this problem.
Regards

Are you on Windows? There is a size limit on that platform:
Windows limits the size of a procedure.
o The text of a procedure cannot exceed 32K.
o The compiled code plus some control information cannot go over the 64K
boundary
Is it possible that your library is too big?

  • Opening .pdf files from forms using OLE

    Hi,
    I want to open, print , save and save as pdf files from forms using OLE . Please help me with the same.
    Thanks
    Vidya

    If you are in client/server mode, you can put an OLE container component on your form. However, be warned that this method does not work when you convert to the forms server web enabled mode. If you anticipate moving your application to the web anytime soon, my advice would be to web-enable first and then add in the feature to view .pdf (or other) files. In our client/server app, I went to a lot of trouble to add in OLE features such as you describe, and now I have to completely re-write those features for the web.

  • Opening pdf file from form developer

    if you have a local sever, put your pdf file on the root folder, then
    use this : web.show_document('http://localhost/oracle.pdf','_blank');
    or web.show_document('file:///C:/oracle.pdf','_blank'); <-- if you dont have one.
    instead of
    web.show_document('file:///c:\oracle.pdf','_blank');

  • Size & content of the compiled file from Forms Builder (Oracle Developer 6)

    Hi all.
    Two files resulted from the compilation of the same form are different according to byte-to-byte comparison (security requirements of the customer). What could be the reason of this? Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance.
    Igor.

    I doubt you will find any documentation about the content or size.
    I take it you are curious about the size and content in the .fmx file, but there is an even more dramatic difference in size of the .fmb file depending on how it is saved.
    You can read up on it here:
        Re: FMB size shrinks dramatically
    and
        Re: Why does this happen - find ';', replace with ';'?
    You can see the .fmx size balloon if you compile the fmb after doing a semicolon - semicolon replace, IF you don't first save, close, then re-open the fmb file.
    In fact, if you are seeing the fmx size change, it may be related to that problem with the fmb. Here at our site, developers ALWAYS do the semicolon - semicolon replace and save and close without compiling with EVERY form they work on. It guarantees that when the fmb is compiled at the users sites, they get a clean fmx.
    You might, in fact, try comparing two fmx files generated from a "clean" fmb, and see if the two compare the same or different. ( Please let me know! )

  • Opening image file from Form 6i deployed on Application server

    Hi
    I am working on an applictaion where a form 6i is deployed on application server.The application reads an image file from hard disk.The form works fine when I run in form developer . But when I deploy on application server the form using get_file_name do not reads the image file.
    Please help
    Prashant

    Hi!
    In forms 10g we use webutil for that. I think forms 6i do not support that.
    May search here in the forum for webutil for 6i.
    Some guys had built a webutil.pll that s working on 6i.
    Here is the thread: Converting to Webutil? 6i and 9i equivalents.

  • Opening doc file in forms 10g

    Hi All,
    I am new to forms development.
    I am working on forms 10g and i need to create an icon which looks like a papercilp and when i press the icon i should be able open a .doc file which is already saved in a table and it is saved as BLOB and the table has one more column which i can use as foreign Key.
    Any help is really appreciated.
    Thanks a lot in advance,
    Nagesh.

    Hello
    You can download the ".doc" file stored in BLOB column to a place (say temp directory of the current user) using function "webutil.db_to_client"
    and open it using command "cmd /c <FULL PATH>"
    FULL PATH is name of file along with path where it is located

  • After saving a pll file in 11g Form Builder, should I be to open it  in....

    .......10g Form Builder?
    Friends,
    I am currently looking at upgrading our 10.1.2 forms application to 11.1.1 and am slightly puzzled by something.
    If I open an existing 10g .PLL file in Form builder 11g and save it should I still be able to open it in Forms Builder 10g?
    The reason for asking is that when we moved from 6i Forms to Forms 10g, once the PLL was saved in the newer version of Form builder it was no longer possible to open it in the earlier, 6i, version of Form Builder. If you attempted to do so you would see an error "Encoded format has an unrecognized format"
    However it appears that after opening a PLL in Forms 11g builder and saving the file I can still open the same file in Forms 10g. Is this the expected behaviour?
    The reason for asking this is that I want to check that the upgrade to 11g is actually doing something!
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Timothy,
    The account cannot be validated error was due to a glitch on our activation server that has been fixed now.
    Please try using acrobat now and check if you are still facing the problem.

  • Form Builder crashes while saving .fmb file when connected to db

    Hi,
    I am getting error The instruction at "0x679c352c" referenced memory at "0x0000001c". The memory could not be "read".
    Forms version is 6.0.8.11.3 and database version is 10.2.0.3.0
    I am doing the following steps:
    1) Open .fmb file in forms builder
    2) Connecting to database
    3) Making some changes in form
    4) Compiling (Ctrl+Shift+K) and generating form (Ctrl+t)
    5) Saving form <--- Here I am getting the error and form crashes
    If I do not connect to database then builder is allowing me to save the file
    1) Open .fmb file in forms builder
    2) Making some changes in form
    3) Saving form (Successful)
    I did some exercise just as a guess that may some part of the form is causing this error. I full expanded all components of the form i.e. blocks, canvases, triggers etc.
    This exercise produced that 3 program units were giving same error while full expending those. I deleted those 3 program units and re-created them. Now it is not showing me this memory error while full expanding all program units. I can now fully expand my full form.
    But I am still getting this error while saving the changes when I am connected to database.
    Please help.

    I tried to generate a new library. This works fine until I saved it. After naming the library and pressing the save button in the dialog the pll file was created and the same error message appears.
    I closed form builder and tried to reopen the library: same error.
    I generated another new library and save this by selecting the first new I generated. Jippee! I get the message that the file already exists! I selected "overwrite" and the file was overwritten. After that the same error appears.
    How can I (re)open PLL files? It is no solution to generate a new library overwriting the old one everytime some changes should made.
    Trying to build the library (Ctrl+T) produces another error:
        FRM-91507: Internal Error: Unable to generate library.
    Compiling (Ctrl-Shift-K) works fine.

    Hi Mark,
    there's no user except of me on the pc and server (I'm working via rdp-client on a virtual server), no server and no oc4j task or instance started. The one and only program that runs is forms builder. The error occurs if I just try to open a pll file via the file open dialog of forms builder.
    With my admins we found that forms builder creates a (temporary) file (e.g. s22o without extension with 827392 bytes) in c:\ but only if I'm the actual user. After I'm getting the permission to create and update files on c:\ forms builder was able to open pll files. Now we're trying to find out why this accurs only on my login. With other users we tried these file was created on F:\ which is the personal drive of the user. I'm only wondering about the fact that temporary files were not created in the TEMP folder defined by the TMP or TEMP environment variable.
    So we solved this unusual problem in an unusual way.

    Why is that you want to open a FMB in Form Builder with a Batch file?
    Is it that your application has only one FMB and that you work with only one FMB all the time?
    Cheers,
    PS: And if you must open the FMB through a batch file then look up the Form Builder Help for "Command Line options". It is an excellent resource.
