Oracle-Multilingual Support

Hi ,
I was wondering if it is possible to have a oracle database that stores data in different languages.
I have gone through few blogs which says Oracle supports Unicode characters & UTF8 supports all languages including multi-byte.
I would like to know what are the languages supported by oracle 10G.
Thanks in advance!

Please, review this guide: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10729/toc.htm
It is the 11.2 version of the manual but the manual gets improved from release to release so it is better to read this version. Refer to the 10.2 version of the manual to verify the languages and territories that are supported in 10.2: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14225/toc.htm
Note, Oracle has multiple levels of language support. The levels are, in increasing number of languages supported at this level:
1. Oracle Text supports advanced linguistic operations for the given language.
2. Error messages and user interface of many tools, including administrative tools, are translated to the given language.
3. Error messages and user interface of many end-user tools, but not administrative tools, are translated to the given language.
4. Oracle Text supports basic linguistic operations (e.g. stemming) for the given language.
5. Sorting according to conventions of the given language is supported.
6. Date, number and currency formatting according to conventions of the given language/territory is supported.
7. Text in the given language can be stored.
I am not quite sure about the order of levels 3-5, that is, which one contains more languages.
Date, number and currency formatting depends mainly on territories (countries), not languages.
Level 7, which is the ability of the database to store text in a given language and do some basic text processing on it, like SUBSTR, INSTR or LIKE, practically contains all languages of the world. The prerequisite is that the database character set is AL32UTF8.

Multilingual Support in Oracle 11i

Hello All,
I am after some documentation to show me the Multilingual Support in Oracle Apps 11i. I would apprecatiate, if anybody could share some documentation or point me in the right direction. All help would be greatly appreciated.

Check this presentation. This should give you a good start on the multi language implementation in Oracle 11i. http://www.oracle.com/appsnet/technology/architecture/presentations/multi_language.pdf

XML Parsing in Java Stored Proc--Oracle XML Support Installation?

I am working with a third party product that is having difficulty running a java stored proc that is parsing a supplied XML file. The proc basically looks like:
import java.io.IOException;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory;
import javax.xml.parsers.FactoryConfigurationError;
import javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException;
import org.w3c.dom.Document;
import org.xml.sax.SAXException;
InputStream is = getXMLAsInputStream(xml);
try {
DocumentBuilderFactory factory =
DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
Document document = builder.parse( is );
... parse the document ....
catch (FactoryConfigurationError e) {
// unable to get a document builder factory
We are running on 9.2.0.6, HP-UX 64-bit. At first, when we would attempt to run the proc, a database hang would occur; now after attempting to install using loadjava jars for xerces2.6: ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception:
javax.xml.parsers.FactoryConfigurationError: Provider
org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl not found)
The vendor says that the errors we are getting when running are not due to any dependency on xerces or jre1.4, and that we need to "install Oracle XML support", but I'm not certain what this means (I cannot find any documentation on what to install). I believe that there are jars that need to be loaded into the database to support the XML parsing, as jre1.3 does not include built-in XML support, and Oracle 9.2.0.6 uses jre1.3.
So...does anyone have any thoughts as to how to resolve the missing references? Is there a way to "install Oracle XML support", or is it to install the necessary jars?
Thanks,
Candi

Candi,
The following resources should be of help:
Oracle9i Database Release 2 (9.2) Documentation Library
In particular, check out the following:
Java Developer's Guide
Java Stored Procedures Developer's Guide
XML API Reference - XDK and Oracle XML DB
XML Database Developer's Guide - Oracle XML DB
XML Developer's Kits Guide - XDK
If that doesn't help, then try the following:
OracleJVM and Java Stored Procedures
XML Technology Center
Good Luck,
Avi.

BPM 7.2, analytics, multilingual support

Good day!
We are creating reports by using new BI content and we have a questions about multilingual support.
As we can see the task definition name of a BPM task is the physical name of the task (I mean it is the name of the file task_name.task). Of course we can use user texts, but they appear as a task instance name, not the task definition. Instance task name always have variables so it's not possible to group task properly.
The problem appears with the process definition also - it shows us the name of the process model...
Are there any options to have process and task definition names be translated?

Dear Kirill,
You can translate processes and tasks texts. Here the procedure for translating process texts:
   1. Go into src/bpmn and duplicate the XLF file.
   2. Rename the duplicated file with for example the locale code at the end (for example: myprocess.bpmn_en_US.xlf).
   3. Double-click on the file to edit it and choose the source language in the drop-down list (for example American English).
   4. Click then on the Resource Text tab and translate the texts.
   5. Build and deploy the DC.
   6. Run at least one instance of the new process version
It is required to run at least once the process in order that the texts are visible for hte BPEM/BI connector.
You need then to extract again the texts from the process text datasource, execute the data transfer processes and may be to activate finally the master data content. You will then be able to see the process texts with your user locale in the Query Designer.
For tasks, the procedure is almost the same. The XLF files are located under src/tasks.
Finally, please notice that some issues were found in 7.20 regarding the texts (text bundles are not packaged and are therefore not deployed). Fixes and patches are in preparation (see note 1412368).
Best regards,
-Alexandre
PS: When the process or task texts are translated, the default texts - the one defined when the process or the task was created - are no more extracted. It's therefore recommended to create an additional XLF file with the same locale than the DC locale.

Oracle's support in Django

I'm trying to decide which application server/framework I can use for python development and for that, in my case, oracle's support is a must.
While analyzing I found out Django is trying to add Oracle as an option right now, using, of course the cx_Oracle module: http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/OracleBranch.
That's good news. If anyone can comment their experience with Zope, Django, etc I'll appreciate it.
TIA

Well, Django itself is great for development of `standard` applications. You create a model, enter 3 commands and then you have a working application with admin interface. Cool, but in my personal experience I've been hitting the wall pretty fast and the amount of time spent on decrypting automagical functionality of a framework is in direct proportion to time spent designing and implementing it ourselves. Problems like schema evolution still need to be resolved by hand.
My limited experience with Zope comes down to the fact that it is a bit like JBoss but focused more on the content management and portal solutions. Plone is a very interesting example of a widely used CMS running on top of Zope (plone.org and plone.net).
Some companies are using Java application servers together with Jython servlets. You can also now run ASP.NET written in IronPython (www.asp.net/ironpython). These two because out of all Web stacks these are the most mature and as we know Oracle's support of .NET and Java is outstanding.
If you are more into PHP or Perl, Python Server Pages from mod_python gives you capabilities similar to those offered by mod_php or mod_perl - but within Python.

Multilingual support in AWM 11g

Is there a multilingual support in AWM 11g? I don't see Languages folder in the AW tree.

Hey Dude,
This looks like a syntactical issue. In your code snippet it looks like you have forgotten the comma (,) after the first argument for the lookup function DENSE
'INDEXCOL( VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.LAN_INT), "SCOTT"."DEPT"."DEPARTMENTNAME" , LOOKUP( DENSE "SCOTT"."LKP_TABLE"."DEPARTMENTNAME" , "SCOTT"."DEPT"."DEPATMENTNUMBER" , VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.WEBLANGUAGE)))
It should be
'INDEXCOL( VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.LAN_INT), "SCOTT"."DEPT"."DEPARTMENTNAME" , LOOKUP( DENSE, "SCOTT"."LKP_TABLE"."DEPARTMENTNAME" , "SCOTT"."DEPT"."DEPATMENTNUMBER" , VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.WEBLANGUAGE)))
Try that and see if it helps. I would also revisit the syntax structure for the lookup when using DENSE just to ensure you are on the safe side but that should solve your problem.
Please award points if this was the correct answer or mark it helpful if it was.
This also looks like a double post so I'll stick with this one for the forum thread.
Cheers,
Christian

In addition to Joe's questions regarding if you don't know the answer, then how do you know you want the job .......
Regarding job titles:
"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean -- neither more nor less."
(Lewis Carroll - Through the Looking Glass)
And so it is with job titles. Any given job title means only and exactly what the organization chooses it to mean -- "neither more nor less".
Even though we work in a technical industry, not every term you see has a universal, fixed, immutable, technical meaning. Not even close.
My first two jobs in IT were in shops that had exactly the same set of job titles for Programmers --
- Programmer/Analyst I
- Programmer/Analyst II
- Programmer/Analyst III
In one shop, the Programmer/Analyst III was the most junior of the three.
In the other, the Programmer/Analyst III was the most senior of the three.
So, you tell me, what is a "Programmer/Analyst III"? What is a "development DBA"? What is a "production support DBA"?

Oracle Linux support subscription. for Oracle employees

I am using RHEL 5 but could not find wireshark trace and I beleive that you need to have Oracle Linux support subscription to access yum repositories. How an Oracle employee can update the software?

Here is a previous link that could be interesting to you:
Re: Employee Access to ULN or Public Yum?
You can also install wireshark and dependend packages using oracle public yum by following the instructions on
http://public-yum.oracle.com/
# yum install wireshark
# yum install wireshark-gnome

IWork 09 and multilingual support

Hi,
Does the US retail version of iWork 09 have multilingual support, or more specifically; can I change the language in software and spell correction to Danish?
Cheers,

iWork is the same everywhere.
The menus and User Interface will be whatever you have set your system to be.
Language is an attribute of the text like bold or font.
Select the text:
+Inspector > Text > More > Language > Dansk+

Does oracle 9i support auto recompile?

Our DB will be downgrade from 10g to 9i.
I need to know oracle 9i support auto recompile or not, but I can't find the information about this.
Can someone help me to find this answer?

when you execute a procedure (not standalone I hope,... if so you should considering moving them into packages) then it will be compiled if it is invalid.
If you use 10g specific functionality, you will need to adjust your code appropriately.
