Pass date value back from called form

I have a form that allows the user to select a date from a calendar canvas. I can call this form from another from and now want to pass the selected date on the called form back to the calling form. I'm new to multi-form applications so I'm looking for some guidence here. I am thinking a parameter list would be better than a global variable since globals only support char values. I've never done this before so any advice or examples would be helpful.
Thanks in advance,
Jeff

Chander,
Thanks for your reply. I think this is the .olb I am using. I created my calendar form using it or a similar .olb. The form runs OK, just lacks the means to pass the "date picked" to the calling form. This is where my inexperience is making things difficult. Assuming we are talking about the same olb, how do I pass the date back?

Passing parameter value back from Child region [BTF] to Parent

Hello,
I am using Jdev 11.1.1.6. I have a use-case where I need to pass value back from child taskflow to parent.
Let me elaborate the use-case:
I have a main page which is implemented as BTF with fragment. This main page contains a child region [again a BTF with fragment].
I am passing a parameter value from parent page to it's region using taskflow input parameter. Now value for one of the parameter changes inside child/region taskflow and I need to make this value available to main page taskflow.
This parameter is just pageFlowScope variable, so basically not coming from any VO.
I know that taskflow can return value via return parameter but I don't know if that is true for taskflow implemented as region in a page.
Is it possible to communicate the pageFlowScope variable value from child region to it's parent page?
Thanks,
Jai

Hi Frank,
I tried to follow steps mentioned in your post but encountered error that "The scope of the referenced object #{viewScope.parentBeanName} is shorter than referring object childBeanName"
Let me explain what I did:
1. Created a bean parentBeanName in viewScope
2. Created another bean childBeanName in pageFlowScope
3. In ChildBean.java, created a private property parentBeanProperty for Class [ParentBean] and generated the accessors
4. Created a input parameter in region TF as:
<input-parameter-definition id="__28">
      <name id="__27">parentBeanParam</name>
      <value>#{pageFlowScope.childBeanName.parentBeanProperty}</value>
      <class>ParentBean</class>
      <required/>
</input-parameter-definition> 5. Since my mainPage contains child page as region. I added parameter to mainPageDef to pass it to child TF, like this
<parameter id="parentBeanParam" xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adfm/uimodel"
                   value="#{viewScope.parentBeanName}"/>6. Introduced a client method in childBeanName that is called from UI. There I am retrieving parentBeanParam instance from pageFlowScope and call setter method of my variable inside ParentBean.java
7. Ran the page but encountered the error.
Did I miss something somewhere?
Initially I got error where #{viewScope.parentBeanName} returned NULL due to parentBeanName not instantiated. I created a variable in mainPageDef with it's default value pointing to #{viewScope.parentBeanName.variableName}, which I guess will instantiate the bean in viewScope.
After this I got error of shorter scope. It never reached to code in Step 6 during execution cycle.
FYI - My application is based on UIShell and essentially a one page application. Main page referred above is also a jsff based on BTF. I hope, this should not affect this implementation but I thought of at least mention it.
Thanks,
Jai

Can you get values back from a stored procedure via OUTPUT parameters?

Can you get values back from calling a stored procedure via OUTPUT parameters/variables? I call the SP via a SQL statement from a script either in a WF or DF.
I thought I read some reference that DI could not get the values from OUTPUT parameters but I could not find it again (don't know if it is in any of the documentation or referred to in a forum.
I did try a couple of tests but it did not reutrn any values via OUTPUT. But before I give up I thought I'd see if you could and maybe I needed to change something.

This isn't exactly an answer to your question, but I'll point out that, given that you're resorting to a SQL script in the first place, there's no reason you can't also turn the output parameters into a regular result or record set. (The following uses T-SQL, although I think it's pretty generic.)
declare @param1 int, param2 varchar(100), @return int;
exec @return = proc @param1 = @param1 output, @param2 = @param2 output;
select @param1 as param1, @param2 as param2;
That is, to get from output parameters to a "regular" output from the SQL script isn't much of a leap...

[cs3] Passing values back from "do javascript" to AS

Hi folks,
I am betting this has been discussed before but the search engine is batting a 0 today, so...
I have an Applescript that needs to call Bridge and display a Script UI dialog. Easy enough even for a JS amateur like me and I have that part working well. However, I think I am missing something either in the JS itself or the way I am calling it from AS such that I get a value passed back into AS.
My AS code is something like:
set jsPath to alias "Path:To:Scripts:Folder:slugDialog.jsx"
set slugDialogJSX to ""
--Read the javascript
set thisFile to open for access jsPath without write permission
set slugDialogJSX to read thisFile
close access thisFile
--Do the javascript
tell application "Bridge CS3"
    activate
    set jsResults to do javascript slugDialogJSX
end tell
--Process the results
if jsResults ≠ "" then
    --would do stuff, but jsResults is always undefined!
end if
And loosely, my Javascript goes like:
#target bridge
var finalVal = metaSlugger();
function metaSlugger() {
    // do stuff
    return someString;
I suspect I simply need to do some final step to have the JS pass the value back, but I'm getting hung up on JS n00bness here.
If I try "return finalVal" it complains that I am trying to return outside a function?
Thanks in advance,
Eric.

Thanks for the suggestion.
Well, as near as I can tell the "do javascript" will in no way, shape or form pass info back out to Applescript from Bridge, and I need to grab the long user name from system info there.
To be honest, I was just trying to do a nice elegant dialog box with Bridge because Illustrator CS2 didn't know Script UI and I thought since everyone has CS3 Bridge on their machines already... But I've settled for 3 Applescript dialogs instead, so the fight is over.
1.5 days tinkering with JS. 1.5 hours recoding in AS. Whee...

Passing multi-value parameter from BIEE dashboard to BIP report

It is possibile passing multi-value parameter from BIEE dashboard prompt to BI Publisher integrated report? (BIP report has a DB data source (not a answers))
Thank you
R.

Hi Rajkm,
In order to pass a multi-value parameter through the Reporting Services Web services, you need to define the same numbers of ParameterValue objects as the number of the values of the multi-value parameter being past into the report. The Name property
of these ParameterValue objects must be specified same to the parameter name.
I found a good FAQ article for this scenario:
How do I pass a multi-value parameter into a report with Reporting Services Web service API?:

Pass data to JSP from HTML?

I can pass the data in a HTML form without problem if the form is in the same jsp file. I have no problem to pass data from one jsp file to another one. But when the jsp file has to take the data passed from calling HTML file and has to receive the data from the same jsp file, then the data from other HTML file will be null the first time runing the code, then second time will be passed right. If I shut down computer run the code again, same problem until the second time. Please tell me why if any of you know!

yes. The first part is HTML file which use the form to pass v_progname, the second part is a jsp file, it suppose to get the data in v_prgname, but the first time to run this code always get null, then the second time get the right data?

Passing parameters to report from current form

Hi all!
I have a problem with parameter passing from form to report. I want to display the report with the current customer id and current product id from the form. But my problem is I don't know how to pass parameters from form to report. I am a new user of oracle applications. If any one can help me, please tell me step by step what I should do because I am so new with oracle developer.
Thanks.
Sonia.

Hi,
An easy way to pass the parameters to the report from the form.
In the trigger from where u are calling the report you can write a short code there to pass on the parameters you want in the report.
declare
pl_id ParamList;
BEGIN
pl_id := Get_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
IF NOT Id_Null(pl_id) THEN
Destroy_Parameter_List( pl_id );
END IF;
pl_id := Create_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'PARAM1',TEXT_PARAMETER,:FORM_ITEM1);
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'PARAM2',TEXT_PARAMETER,:FORM_ITEM2);
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'PARAM3',TEXT_PARAMETER,:FORM_ITEM3);
Run_Product(REPORTS,'C:\UR.RDF',(SYNCHRONOUS or ASYNCHRONOUS), RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM, pl_id);
END;
For this there is an assumption that in your report you have created, 'PARAM1', 'PARAM2', 'PARAM3' as User Parameters in you data model.
I have also just now answered for your problem of setting item properties on select of a value from an LOV. Check that out too.

Bug: 1st Date value returned from CF function as an Array

I am encountering an annoying behavior in Flex. I call a CF function to return a query into an arraycollection - very basic. If the SELECT statement in the CF function includes any dates as returned values, the first date in the SELECT statement comes back into Flex as an array object that includes all of the fields in the query. The other dates are returned normally as Date data types.
This started happening a month or two ago, and I've reproduced it on several machines. Needless to say, it is causing numerous errors when my code excpects a Date and gets an Array.
Do you have any ideas of what might be causing this and what I can do about it?
Thanks!!

I'm not sure where to post it, but here are some snippets:
in the cfc, I have a function as such:
<CFFUNCTION name="GetPersonLog" returntype="query">
    <CFARGUMENT name="STUDENTID" type="numeric" required="Yes">
    <CFQUERY name="qry" datasource="#connection_string#">
        SELECT tblStudentLog.STUDENTLOGID, tblStudentLog.STUDENTID,
        
        tblStudentLog.LOGDATE,
        tblStudentLog.LASTUPDATED,
        tblStudentLog.LOGENTRY
        FROM tblStudentLog LEFT OUTER JOIN
        tblStudentDiscipline ON tblStudentLog.StudentDisciplineID = tblStudentDiscipline.StudentDisciplineID
        WHERE tblStudentLog.STUDENTID = <CFQUERYPARAM value = "#studentid#">
        ORDER BY tblStudentLog.LOGDATE DESC
    </CFQUERY>
    <CFRETURN qry>
</CFFUNCTION>
You see I have a REMmed out line to get a test date. If I check the results in CF using cfdump, all dates come back as dates.
In flex, the handler for the call to this function is simple:
        private function PersonLogHandler(event:ResultEvent):void{
            personlog = event.result as ArrayCollection;
            CursorManager.removeBusyCursor();}
If I stop the code here and evaluate the results in debug mode, I find that the LOGDATE result is an array of values, while the LASTUPDATED field is a date.
If I put back the GETDATE() AS TESTTHIS, statement in the cfc function, then the result includes LOGDATE as a date object, but now the TESTTHIS result is an array.
I have experienced this on 2 different machines, and it has brought my development to a standstill. I can't thin of what changed to start these problems, except that I am now using the FlashPlayer 10 (with debugger). This happens in Firefox and IE. I am using FlexBuilder 3 and Coldfusion 8.

How to pass date value to an UDF

Hi,
I am working in SDK UI. I have created a form. In this form there is a edit text box. I have to pass a date value to that object. I have taken a variable and pass a date value in "yyyy/mm/dd" format. When I am assign this variable to the object to pass the date value to that object then I am getting an error. The error is "Unable to cast object of type 'system.string' to 'system.IFormatProvider' ".
I have written the code like this :------>
Dim AtenDate As String
AtenDate = '2007/08/01'    ' format "yyyy/mm/dd"
Dim txtEditDt As SAPbouiCOM.EditText
oItem = oForm.Items.Item("11")
txtEditDt = oItem.Specific
txtEditDt.String = AtenDate.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy")
After the last line the error is getting fire.
Please help me how I can pass the date value to that object.
Please help me. It is very urgent.

Date and Double conversion is really a confusing thing in B1-SDK programming in the beginning.
But once you got it it's okay.
When working with date-time and doubles (System and SBO-Price/SBO-Quantity), you should always take care about the language of...
...system (windows)
...SBO User Interface
These two formats could make trouble when the programming has been made only for a specific configuration of these two.
The third format for SDK-Programming is
...the SBO-DB-Format, which is language-independent and always a String
Here are some rules:
<b>EditText.String</b> ALWAYS returns the value you see on the SBO GUI. It depends on the SBO Date, Price etc.-Format the USER has configured in the Administration. Consider that the user has (for example) the possibility to choose a "#" (or whatever) as decimal-seperator. Direct (implicit) conversion of such a string to a double will fail at the latest now.
The savest way to get a .NET-Double or DateTime- Value from EditText.String are the conversion methods of SBOBobs-Object (see SDK-help -> BoBridge, Format_MoneyToString...etc.).
I think it's a good idea to write some wrapper functions for that methods, cause they always need a recordset which blows up the code too much.
<b>EditText.Value</b> always (system/sbo-language independent) returns the value as a String in DB-Format (Double as "12345.126700" and date as "20070930".
For that you must asure that the EditText is bounded to a format-corresponding datasource. Price, Quantitiy.... if you need a double.
If your "price"-field would be bound to ShortText and the user wants (assuming the example from above) a "#" for decimal-point, then a GUI-seen value like "12,421#12" is also returned as "12,421#12" by EditText.Value. But If bound to Price-DataSource it's "12421.120000"
=> So always do a DataBind to the Data - Type which is needed is recommended for this to work!
In my case EditText.String and -Value is mostly (only...? needed for B1-System-Forms where using of DataSources is restricted.
The prefered way of read/write values is the
<b>UserDataSource.ValueEx and DBDataSource.GetValue/SetValue</b>-method. It's also always in DB-Format as EditText.Value before, but gives much more performance.
Once you got some conversion-functions for "DB-Format-String" to ".NET-DataType" and vice verca (I've defined some .NET - System.Globalization.XXXFormatInfo-Objects for that) all of your problems are things of the past

Roland
