Portability between Designer 9i r2 and Designer 10g r2, and deployment?

I have some questions to ask...
I have been given the job of adding Oracle to the reportoire of databases available to be used for a commercial Delphi application. The idea is to create a database in 10g that this application can talk to.
I wish to develop the database, constraints and triggers etc using Oracle Designer (not because I think it's best, but simply I know how to use it, and don't know JDeveloper yet, and time is of the essence).
Here's where the problem lies: The last application I developed was on 9i r2 and was going to a 9i r2 platform, and I generated DDL for the database tables stuff, and also for the table API, ending up with two sets of script files to run on the target system. Two of the lines of code in the table API script were:
@ C:\oracle\9iDSHome\cgens72\sql\cdsaper.PKS
@ C:\oracle\9iDSHome\cgens72\sql\cdsaper.PKB
Of course the pathnames weren't right, but when I fixed them I managed to get the system installed correctly. However the clients for the application I am working on now should not have to have developer installed... I want them to be able to just run the script files into a 10g database and not worry about designer/developer at all.
The other issue is just as serious. Although clients shouldn't have to have designer installed, I want the application developer/company owner to be able to fiddle with the designer if he wants to. I have 9i where I work, and he will have 10g. Will I be able to do a repository export/dump from my 9i r2 and import it to his 10g r2? With the previous project I did, I couldn't even import the designer export from my 9i r2 to the 9i r2 at the workplace... it said "Incorrect header file" - it was lucky I had the DDL script files or I would never have got it in the database at all! If they had had a different version of oracle then I don't know what would have happened when trying to run those package files from developer (the comments say something about an error package or some such)!
Eventually I'm going to upgrade to 10g for database development but I don't want to just yet.
So my questions are:
1. Can I develop the system using 9i r2 DB and 9i r2 DS and then create DDL scripts to be run on 10g client databases without having to have developer installed on the client machines? could my "boss" distribute those two developer package files with the DDL scripts to the clients without breaking some kind of copyright?
2. Will I be able to import a Designer 9i r2 export into a Designer 10g r2 repository for my "boss" to make adjustments and produce refined DDL scripts himself later on?
If the only thing holding me back is having 10g installed where I work then tell me now and I'll take the plunge. If there's other issues I need to find a way around them.
I thank you in advance for any advice you can give
Thanks

Hi,
This issue has been reported with Designer Releases prior to 9.0.4.4 against 10g database.
Please upgrade to the latest Designer Release 9.0.4.5 the import will work fine.

  • Using Clob with TopLink 9.0.4.5 and Oracle 10g RAC

    I am trying to store an XML file in a Clob type field of a DB table using TopLink 9.0.4.5 and Oracle 10g RAC and need some guidance about how to do it. I got some directions to start it with the Tip "How-To: Map Large Objects (LOBs) to Oracle Databases with OracleAS TopLink" but still need some more helps.
    When using the Oracle JDBC OCI driver, the tip gives the code block for a Clob field:
    DirectToField scriptMapping = new DirectToField();
    scriptMapping.setAttributeName("script");
    scriptMapping.setFieldName("IMAGE.SCRIPT");
    descriptor.addMapping(scriptMapping);
    As I understand, TopLink creates instances of the Descriptor class at run time for each of the descriptor files and stores them in a database session, where is the proper place (in SessionEvent of TopLinkSessionEventHandler?) for me to get a reference to such an instance of my Descriptor class in Java code so that I can add the above mentioned additional Mapping? Are the above String values of "script" and "IMAGE.SCRIPT" predefined in TopLink API? Can I accomplish the same thing just using the TopLink Workbench tool instead? If yes, please advise the detailed steps to do so.
    The tip also states to call the following code in case of using Clob:
    DatabaseLogin login = session.getLogin();
    login.useStringBinding();
    Should the above 2 lines of code be called after the following lines of code?
    SessionManager sessionManager = SessionManager.getManager();
    Server serverSession = (Server)sessionManager.getSession("MY_SESSION_NAME");
    Besides the above extra coding for the Session and Descriptor Mapping, is there any special handling in between Data model and DB table mapping? Can I map a Java String type to a DB Clob field using the Direct-to-field mapping?
    Appreciate any help.

    Never mind ....... I had already figured it out .....

  • Error to connect oracle 10g client and designer BO 4.0

    hello,
    I try to connect oracle 10g client and designer BO 4.0.
    I created an ODBC connection to function in the administration tools of data sources but I can not connect once in designer.
    I tried using the driver directly oracle designer 10 but I have the same error that is this:
    DBD: ORA-12154: TNS: connection identifier specified could not be resolved
    someone there had the same concerns?
    cordially

    Hi,
    so it looks like that your TNSNAMES.ORA file isn`t properly configured. Thats why you can connect with the IDT to your Oracle Database.
    Your DBA`s should sent you the correct TNSNAMES.ORA file or the entry for your DB prior. After the tnsping works, you will be able to use the IDT properly.
    Regards

  • Dreamweaver Momentarily Freezing When Moving Between Code and Design View

    I have Dreamweaver CS4 and have had a problem that just started yesterday.  I have rebooted my machine to no avail.  The local copy and the live copy of the site are on two different servers that we access through a local network.
    Dreamweaver slows to a standstill if I click to another program and then attempt to go back into Dreamweaver or if I switch between design and code view.
    I haven't made any changes to Dreamweaver in the way of added extensions or updates.  Is it possible that the cause of this could be either a server problem or a connectivity to the server problem?
    Many thanks in advance for any help you could provide.
    Andy

    You can use CTRL+# to switch between Code and Design View.
    By the way, this is the Dreamweaver Application Development forum which deals with questions about using server-side scripting languages like PHP or ColdFusion. General Dreamweaver questions should be posted in the regular Dreamweaver General Discussions forum.
    And while I´m at it: please use descriptive headlines such as "how to switch between Code and Design View" for your posts -- mentioning your screen name "Goula129" is not helpful to other users.

  • Difference between i5 and i7 cpu for photography and design purposes

    I need to replace my old MBP and am not too familiar with tech specs concerning CPU and memory. I'm a photographer and use Adobe Lightroom and onOne Perfect Suite7. Working with images is my main goal. For video rendering and "heavy" stuff I have an iMac 27" i7. So a MacBook doesn't need to be a one in all solution.
    I compared a MBA 13" all-in, with a MBP 15" and a MBP 13" Retina. All configured with 8GB Ram I get price offers which vary a lot between these three models. My question is there a significant difference between the different CPUs for photo editing and design purposes? I don't want to spend a heap of money since MBs are pricey enough.

    Yes, on the big plus side of the non retina MBP is the possibility to tweak it a little by myself. I threw away the superdrives and replaced them with SSD drives for OSX and have second drives for all the data in my machines. CD and DVD is ancient storage technology anyway. Also did I upgrade RAM myself without paying Apple's ridiculous prices.
    With the upgrade to the widescreen non glossy display, I think I will be set up properly. However, I will checkout those retina displays tomorrow, just to really know it.
    But one question remains: Which CPU might be sufficient in the long run? I tend towards the 2,6GHz with 1GB RAM GPU
      2,3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7, NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 512 MB GDDR5 RAM
      2,6 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7, NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 1 GB GDDR5 RAM [+ 200,00 €]
      2,7 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7, NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 1 GB GDDR5 RAM [+ 450,00 €]

  • Diff between 10g AS and 11g AS

    Hi,
    What are major differences between 10g AS and 11g AS? is 11g AS called fusion middleware?

    as application server level oracle 11g WebLogic Server is the new generation of AS10g ,and sure it's the world best application server for building and deploying enterprise Java EE applications with support for new features for lowering cost of operations, improving performance and supporting the Oracle applications portfolio,
    the Oracle Fusion Middleware consists of several software products from Oracle Corporation. OFM spans multiple services, including Java EE and developer tools, integration services, business intelligence, collaboration, and content management. OFM depends on open standards such as BPEL, SOAP, XML and JMS.
    Oracle Fusion Middleware provides software for the development, deployment, and management of service-oriented architecture (SOA). It includes what Oracle calls "hot-pluggable" architecture, designed to facilitate integration with existing applications and systems from other software vendors such as IBM, Microsoft, and SAP AG

  • Can Designer generate ADF Entity Objects, View Objects and Apps Module ?

    Hi all,
    On what way can Designer integrate with JDeveloper (+ ADF) ?
    Can Designer generate ADF Entity Objects, View Objects and Apps Module ?
    Thank you for your help,
    xtanto

    Designer itself has no direct integration with JDeveloper. However, there are three options. First of all, you can get a JDeveloper extension (download this separately) that lets you create a Connection to a Designer repository. From that Connection you can find modules that you defined in Designer and generate Entity and View objects for the tables and columns that you used in those modules, and an Application Module. It does not create JSPs or other user interface objects.
    Another option is to buy JHeadstart from Oracle. This contains a set of code generators and ADF extensions that include an ability to get information from a Designer repository. JHeadstart works fine for non-Designer users too, but was built by the same people who wrote Designer Headstart - they know the repository API intimately.
    The third option is to download Oracle Designer Extension Builder (ODEB) which was just recently made available. This is a product of a collaboration between Designer users from the Oracle Development Tools Users Group (ODTUG) and Oracle to extend the capabilities of Designer with user written tools and utilities. You could use ODEB to write your own generators for ADF Business Components. Or you could wait and see if someone else in the user community does this. I hope that you or whoever does such a generator will be willing to share it with us all.

  • What are the differences between Oracle Service Bus 10g and WLI 10g?

    Hi,
    To me both Oracle Service Bus 10g R3 and Weblogic Integration 10g seem to offer the same functionalities for implementing an enterprise middleware.
    I would be grateful if someone could:
    1. provide me with the two products' differences.
    2. describe what their roadmap is?
    3. what are their positioning in the Oracle product catalog? Are they both members of Oracle SOA Suite? Fussion Middleware?
    Thanks a lot,
    Best regards,
    Babis.

    Thanks everyone for taking the time to reply,
    Eduardo: the answer to your questions are that all the flows will be short-lived but if we can make long-lived flows then we might consider developing them. We would need to persist the state of the flow somehow.
    I understand that some of our requirements would be better accomodated by WLI or bpel but we don't have an option but only to use OSB.
    So, do you think we could overcome the stateless nature of OSB by:
    1. writing to appropriate tables and reading from there and calling plsql procedures from the flows
    2. using JMS queues.
    In detalis:
    1. Regarding the writing/reading from Databases (in our case it would be oracle 10g R2 - probably RAC), is there something like a Database control in WLI, which we could use in OSB? What i have seen are using xquery execute-sql function or a JCA DB adapter but both of them seem to me not very easy to use. Is there another option?
    2. Regarding the JMS, in case that i want:
    a service that writes to a JMS queue what are the servicetype and transport that i should use?
    a service that reads from a JMS queues what are the service type and transport that we should used?
    Any information that you may share with me in the design and implementation of the above would be great.
    Thanks a lot.

  • IMac vs. Macbook Pro for Art and Design Student

    Hello,
    first off, I'm sorry if this is in the wrong section of the forums - it seemed like the best place, but I wasn't entirely sure.
    Secondly, I can imagine you guys get asked this question a lot, so i guess I'm sorry for that!
    Here's the situation - I'm going to College in England this September. I need a computer to accompany me with my course, and what I'll be doing with it. I'm studying Art and Design, but I already have a strong interest and a lot of experience in graphic design, vector illustration and web design - so it needs to fit my personal use as well.
    I knew instantly that I not only wanted but needed an iMac. I saved up, compared the models and then, rather unfortunately, came to a stop.
    Here's the problem - I need the processing power to handle the full Adobe CS5 suite, some 3D modelling and rendering and plenty of photos and music. However, Portability would be nice... although my college has 3 Mac suites, I think that being able to carry my work around and edit on the go will be an obvious plus. If I do go for the iMac, do you recommend me getting the 21.5" or the 27"? I (just) have money for either so that isn't really a problem, but is it worth the extra money for a larger screen and better graphics? Is the Macbook Pro powerful enough? The way I see it, I'm spending £2000+ To only get near the power of the iMac...
    I hope you guys can help me out here, and thank-you in advance!
    (And sorry for the long post...!)
    Message was edited by: ubermatik

    Hi Bee!
    Thanks very much for your advice!
    However, why do you suggest the 21.5" over the 27"? Do you think it is worth the extra screen size, because I can afford either?
    It seemed to me that the iMac was the best option also - I'm in need of the power, but I'm still deliberating over size.
    Also, on a side note, do you know of any iPhone apps that can help me with transferring files from home to college I'm getting an iPod Touch as part of the new deal Apple are running and I just wondered if there were any apps that I would find handy for transporting files etc.?
    Thanks again!

  • How to use SOA Suite in conjunction with SOA Analysis and Design Tools

    Hi everybody,
    I am a novice in this field and I need some help regarding integrating analysis and design tools with SOA Suite.
    We used to analyze and design with Oracle Designer and use its powerful form generator to develop a system. It almost covered all the software lifecycle and kept the traceability between anlaysis,design and implementation.
    I have studied about the SOA concepts and read some papaer about SOA Suite. I have also installed the SOA demo based on SOA Suite and I found it absolutely amazing, but my problem is that It seems oracle does not have any tools for SOA Analysis and Design. am I right? if so, How can we analyze and design a system based on SOA concepts and implement it using soa suite in such a way that keeps traceability? What tools is used for this purpose?
    It seems that IBM have some tools like Rational Software Architect and Rational Suite which enable people to design and analyze based on SOA concepts and then generates some pieces of code (like oracle designer in old days) but is it possible to design in these tools and then generating codes for SOA Suite ? (for example generating a bpel file from a design model)
    As I told before I am a novice in this field and I would be so grateful if other users can share their expriences regarding this matter.
    Any help would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,

  • Is MVC2 a design pattern or architecture? for yes and no why?

    I am using JSF which follows MVC2. Is MVC2 a design pattern or architecture? For yes and no why? what is the difference between design pattern or architecture?

    Hi There,
    Maybe this will help answer your questions...
    Firstly, MVC2 is a proprietary name for the Microsoft .NET framework based around the Model-View-Controller pattern - it is an updated version of their first attempt - MVC.
    The Model-View-Controller pattern harks back to the days of SmallTalk, and as far as I am aware is not included in the original Gang Of Four design patterns, although there is no reason why it can't be considered a design pattern.
    Software architecture is about how different parts of the system fit (interface) together and how they relate, including static relationships (cardinality relationships, state) and processes (what happens when), it most often consists of many design patterns each used to address the various needs of a complete system.
    Hope this helps

  • DW 2014.1 keyboard shortcuts for "Code and Design" gone

    Option has disappeared for setting keyboard shortcuts specifically for "Code and Design" (or plain Design either, for that matter)?  Split Code option just gives you two code windows and all the other options in Shortcuts are for Live View, not Design view.

    Alt-F11 does not help me in this situation because you still cannot toggle between showing Code and Design versus all Code, or all Design. Live options have replaced Design options, but even then, you cannot make a shortcut for Code and Live (though it's available in the View menu). This screen shot shows what has disappeared.
    Again: Ctl + ` does not toggle the VIEW, it toggles the active PANE.
