Oracle Fusion 11g Vs Oracle Fusion 10g

Question

Hi,
What are the major changes and how complex or simple they made it in Fusion 11g over Fusion 10g? Please share this knowledge.
Thanks.

Answer 1

In the form there is an existing parameter of CHAR type and this is assigned to a number variable within the, but this cannot be the error as when the radio button clicks for some data it display details and for some data this gives a above error.
Never say never! Anytime you let Oracle automatically cast data from one data type to another - you are introducing risk; not to mention that it is a poor programming habit. You should ALWAYS explicitly cast your data between types because you will get inconsistent results otherwise - Oracle has always warned agaist this!
Since you have a CHAR parameter that is being assigned to a NUMBER variable you should be using the TO_NUMBER() function to cast the CHAR to a NUMBER. For example:
DECLARE
   n_num_data   NUMBER;
BEGIN
   n_num_data := TO_NUMBER(:PARAMETER.Char_Data);
EXCEPTION
   WHEN VALUE_ERROR THEN
      --Someone passed a non-numeric CHAR
      Clear_Message;
      Message('Parameter is not NUMBER');
      Message(' ');
      RAISE Form_Trigger_Failure;
END;Hope this helps,
