Printer selection in Forms 10g

Hello,
I am looking for a suggestion, to realize a printer selection in Forms 10g.
For a migration I have to replace the command
win_api_dialog.select_printer with something similar.
Some threads suggest to implement a java class.
Under
How i select printer in Forms9i
exist an example.
The implementation there is based on the JDK 1.4.
I need an implementation based on JDK 1.3.
Inside of the JDK 1.3 exist only a simple printer dialog.
(compare http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4645377 )
Probably exist the option to use the C-API of WebUtil. The C-API could be used to start a printer dialog of a dll. I like to avoid this option, but if you an example for that option, I appreciate to see an example for that.
In all other respects, I hope on your suggestions.

I invest some more time on that topic, but did not found a solution to display a printer selection on the client.
The only thing that i found in forum was that you can read the standard printer out the registry. But I would need all local installed printers.
I hope on your help.

Problem with PJC (Print Dialog) - Forms 10g

I have a problem with my PJC for Forms 10g r2. When I try to connect and run my PJC (raise Print dialog and put printer name in some text item) I get following message:
oracle.forms.net.ConnectionException: Forms session <2> aborted: unable to communicate with runtime process.
 at oracle.forms.net.ConnectionException.createConnectionException(Unknown Source)
 at oracle.forms.net.HTTPNStream.getResponse(Unknown Source)

 at oracle.forms.net.HTTPNStream.flush(Unknown Source)
 at java.io.DataOutputStream.flush(Unknown Source)
 at oracle.forms.net.StreamMessageWriter.run(Unknown Source)
When I started application, on Java console I saw this message, so I think the server configuration is fine (I change everything I need in Default.env and FormsWeb.cfg files):
Loading http://devsrv/forms/java/jESPrintDialog.jar from JAR cache
What can I change with server configuration or deploying my project to this PJC can work normaly?
Thanks....

Hi and thanks!
I resolve one part of my problem. Tt was about diferent compiler (in JDeveloper 10.1.3 compiler is 1.5 and in my oc4j server JRE is earlier version, so it can`t work normaly).
I comiled PJC in 1.4 version of compiler and now I can start and run my PJC.
But, there is another problem:
this is my part of java code (note: everything work fine except one line when I want to get printer name from select printer dialog):
try {
boolean b;
PrinterJob job = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
b = job.printDialog();
try {
return job.getPrintService().getName();
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Error: "+e.getMessage());
return "My error:";
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("ERROR: " + e.getMessage());
return "Problem with PJC [esoft]";
So, when pjc want to get back printer name
return job.getPrintService().getName();
i get following error (on Java console):
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError

Forms 10g installed and running on Windows Vista

Update 12-Dec-2008: Oracle has published NOTE 559067.1 -- How to Install Developer Suite 10.1.2.0.2 - hence 10.1.2.3 - on Windows Vista, 24-OCT-2008 with some installation help.
Update 07-July-2008: Added text at the bottom showing how to find patchsets for Forms 10g.
Update 29-May-2008: This thread was started in November, 2007. In January, 2008, Oracle released Patch 3 for Forms 10g, which makes Forms 10g compatible with Windows Vista. As time permits I'll try to keep the information in this post up to date. Updated information will be inserted as blue text.

Original message begins here:
This is a second thread I am posting to outline the steps I have used to install Forms on a Windows Vista Home Basic laptop. The other thread describes installing Forms 6i:
Forms 6i installed and running on Windows Vista
Please read through the initial part of that post for the background. I realize Oracle has not certified Forms 10g to run on Vista, but the time has come for my associates and I to upgrade our old computers to new desktop/laptop platforms, and I would hate to acquire XP machines and be stuck with them for the next 5 years. (Note: Since first posting this message, Oracle has certified Forms 10g Patch 3 (version 10.1.2.3.0) to run on Vista) So after another person informed me that he had Forms installed and running on Vista, I went ahead and bought one. I found that as long as I set the compatibility mode to run Forms programs as Windows XP (and a few other changes), Forms 6i and 10g run quite satisfactorily.
Update 29-Jan-2008: Unfortunately, it turns out that the Forms 10g Builder running on Vista had a major flaw: If you try to develop a form, the Builder will crash if you try to compile a procedure that calls another procedure in the form that has errors. The problem is reported and described in this thread: Error compiling a form under Vista
Update 12-Mar-2008: Installing Patch 3 on Vista does not help with this problem -- the Builder still crashes in the same situation.
Update 25-July-2008: Applying Patch 7047034 has corrected the problem. See this link within this thread: Forms 10g: Installing Patch 7047034 on Windows Vista
Webutil note: I am stuck in a Forms 6i client/server world, so all my forms must run in that environment. Therefore I have not used any Webutil software, and I do not know whether that part will run under Vista.
Internet Explorer note: On Windows Vista, IE CANNOT be used to run the Web Forms runtime. It crashes immediately when you try to run a form. Instead, I can use either Firefox (Firefox 2, Firefox 3.0 Crashes with Forms 10g) or Netscape, as long as they are set to disable java. [ Correction: IE7 on Vista now runs the Forms 10g forms. You just need to add "?config=jpi" to the browser URL when starting the Web Forms session. More IE/Vista info: [url=http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=642973]Vista JInitiator Problem ]
The Oracle Developer Suite download page:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ids/index.html
Oracle Developer Suite Installation Guide:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25016_07//doc/dl/core/B16012_04/toc.htm
The steps below are those I followed to install Forms 10g (version 10.1.2.0.2)
I. Preliminary system changes in Windows
When I started installing, I got the following error message: Install has encountered an error while
 attempting to verify your virtual memory settings.
 Please verify that the sum of the initial sizes of
 the paging files is at least 256 MB.To fix this: Go to Control Panel, System and Maintenance, View amount of RAM and processor speed (under "System"),
Advanced system settings (in left "Tasks" column), Advanced tab, Settings (under "performance"), Advanced tab:
Virtual Memory shows a "Total paging file size for all drives: 2337MB.
Click "change", Uncheck "Automatically manage paging file size for all drives"
Click "custom size:", set Initial size to: 2048, Max to 4096
Click set button, then OK, get message:The changes you have made require you to restart your computer before
 they can take effect.Restart the computer.
II. Installing Forms 10g
1. Download two files from Oracle:
ds_windows_x86_101202_disk1.zip (626,122,752 bytes)
ds_windows_x86_101202_disk2.zip (236,880,881 bytes)
2a. Before extracting, it is a good idea to shut down any virus protection software. It can sometimes prevent some files from being created.
2b. Extract both into the C:\oracle directory, as disk1 and disk2.
3. Using Windows Explorer, change the properties of setup.exe in the C:\oracle\disk1 folder. (In windows explorer, right click, properties, Compatibility tab.) Change the compatibility to run as Windows XP (Service Pack 2).
4. Right click setup.exe and click "Run as administrator"
5. Select "Installation type" = Complete (1.11 GB)
6. Received this message:Windows Firewall has blocked this program from
accepting incoming network connections. If you
unblock this program, it will be unblocked on all
public networks that you connect to.
C:\users\steve\appdata\local\temp\orainstall...
2007-10-29_11-59-08am\jre\1.4.2\bin\javaw.exeI clicked "Unblock"
7. Received this message: "Provide outgoing mail server information" I entered the smtp mail server that I use.
8. A summary screen displayed showing 274 products under New Installations.
I clicked the Install button.
9. Received this message: You can find a log of this install session at:
C:\Program Files\Oracle\Inventory\logs\installActions2007.....log
10. The installation completed. Installed products shows Forms 10.1.2.0.2
III. After the install completed
1. Create a shortcut to the Forms 10 Builder on the Desktop.
On the shortcut line, after the .exe, add *userid=userxxx/pwxxx@orcl* so Builder automatically logs into 10g database. If you do step 4 below (creating an easily-accessible folder to use for your forms) change the "Start in" path on the shortcut so it points to that folder. Otherwise, Forms Builder will not find referenced objects and PLL libraries when it opens a form. Also do the same on the Start, All Programs shortcut for the Forms Builder.
Edit: After applying Patch 3, the following steps are not necessary.
Set its compatibility to Windows XP.
Set checkbox: "Run this program as as an administrator." (Without this, FormBuilder will NOT open a PLL library.)
Click the "Show settings for all users" and change values there.
2. Copy "Start OC4J Instance" icon to desktop.
Set its compatibility to Windows XP.
The first time it runs, I got a Windows popup to unblock program named Java. I clicked "Unblock".
3. tnsnames.ora:
Rename C:\oracle\DevSuiteHome_1\network\admin\tnsnames.ora
to: tnsnames_orig.ora
If you created a tnsnames.ora file for Forms 6i, just copy it to the path above. If not, do this:
Create a new tnsnames.ora file, copying entries old file on my old laptop, which contains all the connections I use.
Delete the old laptop entry, replace with new entry for the new local ORCL connection on new laptop from tnsnames file renamed from the c:\oracle\... ...\10.2.0\db_1\ path.
4. Optional: Create an easily accessible folder to store fmb files:
C:\users\steve\.1\fmb10
You don't really want to keep drilling into C:\oracle\DevSuiteHome_1\forms, and then find your .fmb file among the several dozen oracle-supplied files.
To create a folder named .1, you have to open a CMD.exe (Windows DOS) window, and type the Make Directory command:
MD .1
That will create the folder within the current directory -- mine defaults to C:\users\steve
Note: If you also need to use Forms 6i like me, DO NOT EVER open a .fmb file in the Forms 10 Builder from the Forms 6i folder. If you compile it, or even worse, save the .fmb, Forms 6i *cannot ever* access the file. Instead, always use the File Manager (Windows Explorer) to copy the fmb from the fmb6 folder into the fmb10 location.
5. Change the Forms 10g Default.env file using a text editor.
This file replaces all the settings originally written to the Windows Registry (GREAT idea, Oracle! I hate the registry.) No more Regedit. The default.env file is located at: (DevSuiteHome_1 path)\forms\server\default.env
Locate line with: FORMS_PATH= and add:
;C:\users\steve\.1\fmb10
Add a new line:
FORMS_MMAP=FALSE
The above allows compiling an fmx while the form is running.
Add a new line:
FORMS_ROWLOCK_OPTIMIZATION=FALSE
(This fixes Oracle bug number 3949854, which prevents automatic skipping if the same value is typed over another value. TAR 4806199.993 Automatic Skip failure...) See bug 4068896
Add a new Line:
FORMS_RESTRICT_ENTER_QUERY=False
This allows use of Query-Where window in enter query, after entering a colon in any input field. Without this, Forms returns FRM-40367: Invalid criteria in field nnn in example record. Oracle shut it down to prevent "sql injection" attacks.
6. Jiniator setup:
Run file jinit.exe in C:\oracle\DevSuiteHime_1\jinit\jinit.exe
It installs Jinitiator 1.3.1.22.
I installed it in C:\oracle\JInitiator 1.3.1.22\
For Firefox, make sure a copy of file \bin\NPJinit13122.dll resides in C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\plugins.
For Netscape, the path is: C:\Program Files\Netscape\Navigator 9\plugins
7. Browser settings
See the note above about using Firefox 2 and not Firefox 3!
In Firefox 2 go to: Tools-> Options-> Content
Uncheck the "Enable Java" checkbox
--Firefox terminates if this is not done!
Note: After my system automatically installed updates to either java or Firefox, re-check the "Enable Java" setting. I am suspicious that one of these installs re-enables java in the browser.
Also note: some web sites cannot display properly if java is disabled. Example: U.S. time website: http://www.time.gov Use Internet Explorer to view these.
In Netscape make the same changes as Firefox. Without disabling java, it also terminates when you try to run a form.
Creating a url to use in the browser:
Try this:
http://127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet
If it does not work, change the 8889 port number as follows:
Open file: C:\oracle\DevSuiteHome_1\install\portlist.ini
Note the number in line:
Oracle Developer Suite HTTP port = 8889
Use the number as the port number.
You can also change the 127.0.0.1 to the computer name:
Control Panel, System and Maintenance, See the name of this computer (under "System"). Mine is "steve-PC"
So the alternate URL is: http://steve-PC:8889/forms/frmservlet
To try out the URL, start the OC4J instance set up above. Then start either Netscape or Firefox, and enter the URL. You should get a welcome screen.
If the above URL works, start up the Forms Builder, and open Edit, Preferences. On the General tab, uncheck the "Build before running" check box (optional). On the Runtime tab, set the "Application Server URL to the url above.
To run a real form, add this to the URL after frmservlet, (with no spaces):
?form={formname}&userid={userxxx}/{passwordyyy}@{connect-string}
but replace the parts in curly braces with the appropriate values. Example:
http://127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet?form=ABC&userid=abc123/zyx@orcl
Setting up Forms Builder to directly run a form in the browser:
Run the Forms Builder. Go to Edit, Preferences, Runtime tab.
Set the Application Server URL to:
http://127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet
(or use whatever URL string you developed above)
Set the Web Browser Location to:
"C:\Program Files\Netscape\Navigator 9\navigator.exe"
(or an equivalent to run the Firefox browser).
8. FORMSWEB.CFG file changes
The file is located at:
C:\ORA_DS_101202\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\server\formsweb.cfg
I changed the following two lines in the file, but these are my personal preferences:
separateFrame=true
lookandfeel=Generic
9. FMRWEB.RES file changes
For Oracle help: Enabling Key Mappings
The file fmrweb.res defines actions (triggers that run) when a function key is pressed while running Forms. The one released has unix-style key mapping, but I prefer keys originally mapped for Windows PC Forms users. There is a fmrpcweb.res in the same folder that can be renamed to fmrweb.res.
In the C:\oracle\DevSuiteHome_1\forms path, I renamed fmrweb.res to fmrweb_orig.res.
I have a file that I prefer to use, so I put it into the folder as fmrweb.res. The contents are listed below. It is organized so the most important keys are listed alphabetically at the top (URFD column is the sort column), followed by a group of less-important keys. These are keys that are available to users, but they either would not use, or are disabled within most forms. The URFD column in the second set starts with a hex A0 character, which is a high-order space, so collates after normal alphabetic characters. (Note: If you want to copy the text below and use it, the hex A0 character has been changed by the forum software to a space. So you would need to use a text editor with hexadecimal character capabilities to replace the space with the original character. )
My file has special keys defined for F2 (I use it for a debugging Key-F2 trigger in my forms), and a "Cursor to Home" F12 function. All the rest are pretty much the same as in the released fmrpcweb.res file, only mine are organized alphabetically on the URFD column.
The Web Forms fmrweb.res file is editable using any programming editor (NOT MS Word!!!). The old Client/Server key mapping file, fmrusw.res, could only be changed using the Oracle Terminal program (and it is a pain to use).
Here is the main part of my fmrweb.res file:#
#Jfn :Jmn: URKS :Ffn : URFD

I followed your instructions and installed Developer Suite 10G on Windows Vista Home Premium edition. I have Oracle 11G DB running on the same machine.
Two points, Steve:
1. When I tried to set the maximum virtual memory to 6110 an error message displayed from Windows and told me that I can't set the maximum virtual memory to more than 4096. I set it to 4090 and it worked and I got nothing wrong during the installation process.
2. After installing JInitiator and disabling Java on Firefox I called the http://127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet page and everything seemed to be OK because the Oracle Forms Services logo appeared and then a successful installation message appeared , but as I clicked (ok) to continue a gray screen appeared inside the browser (like the one displayed when you try to run a Java applet inside a browser) and then I wait to death till something appears but sadly nothing. I just get a blank gray screen inside my Firefox browser.
Do you have any idea what to do to solve the problem?

Open a printer selection dialog

hi,
I've installed oracleAS 10g, and I would like to open a printer selection dialog in an application form.
I know that I can't use a JavaBean because of my version of JInitiator -1.3.1.17-, which not supported javax.print package.
I know that I can't use WebUtil because there isn't function which do it.
Have you pplease a solution ?
Thank you for your help.
Thomas

Hi Frank,
I am using developer 9.0.4. Can you explain the javax.print package in detail so that i can work on the printer selection dialog window, since i too am facing the same problem.
i unable to adjust the paper size in character mode while printing, as we do not have the preview of the character mode print in the version that i am using, the out is directly taken to the printer, and does not give the option of selecting the paper size. ( paper size is 8"x6").
hope you got wht is the problem.
please let me know your suggestions ASAP.
Thanks,
Bahsar

Calling Report from Menu (Oracle Forms 10g)

We have the applications in Forms6i & Reports 6i (Client Server) and migrating to Forms 10g and Reports 10g. We have the menu, from that menu we are calling all the forms and Reports. For especially Reports earlier we user RUN_PRODUCT but now 10g it is not working. How can call the report using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT
Important things we have some dynamic parameters (input) to the each report. That means when i called the report from the menu i need to get first parameter form to take the parameters and then can be run the report.

Here is the code to call report from menu in 10g
DECLARE
pl_id ParamList;
repid REPORT_OBJECT;
v_rep varchar2(100);
v_server VARCHAR2(100);
rep_status varchar2(100);
v_host VARCHAR2(100);
BEGIN
     select rep_server into v_server from reports_data;
     select machine into v_host from reports_data;
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,'P_C_CODE',TEXT_PARAMETER,:GLOBAL.COMPANY);
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'P_B_CODE',TEXT_PARAMETER,:GLOBAL.BRANCH);
     repid := find_report_object('REPORTOBJ');
     SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_FILENAME,getpath||'E_VOUCHER_ENTRY.RDF');
          SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_COMM_MODE,SYNCHRONOUS);
          SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'htmlcss');
          SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_SERVER,v_server);
          v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid, pl_id);
          rep_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(v_rep);
          WHILE rep_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED')
               LOOP
                    rep_status := report_object_status(v_rep);
                         message('Running');
               END LOOP;
          IF rep_status = 'FINISHED' or rep_status is NULL THEN
               --Display report in the browser
               WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://'||v_host||'/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server='||v_server,'_blank');

Problem with output from report to excel, calling the report from form 10g

Hi everyone, I'm having a problem generating a excel from a report, which is called from a form, I'm using Forms 10g. The problem is this: My report has a variable number of columns. These columns appear according to data obtained from the database, these columns are dates, In vesion 6 excel file generated shows the columns one after another starting in column A1 to column CP. I mean that the dates are correlative. But in version 10g the excel file generated shows the same report starting in column A to column T, only shows the 20 dates correlative corresponding to this columns, the rest of the dates are down the excel sheet in groups of 20 dates, it's something, the file in 6i grows across and in 10g grows down the excel sheet. The report (rdf file) is the same in 6i and 10g, I compiled the 6i version to obtain the 10g version. The excel sheet generated in 10g looks like the report was in pdf format, because PDF format, cuts the report in pages and the file grows down, if I generate the report in PDF format it has the same structure excel file in 10g has. I hope yo can help because I have days trying to solve this but I have no succes. If someone could help I could email the excel files generated in two versions. Here I put the code I use to generate the files in 6i and 10g. I have tried with DESFORMAT=SPREADSHEET in 10g but the result is the same. Thanks for your help. Greetings for all.
Code for version 6i (Works Very well)

There are two problems with your VI. First, the basic logic of writing/appending to a file (Excel, TDMS, anything) should go something like this: Open the file, position yourself at the end of the file, then, in the loop, acquire data and write it to the file until you are finished with data acquisition. When you exit the acquire/write to file loop, then close the file. In particular, the opening and the closing of the file should not be inside the loop.
As others have pointed out, writing to Excel might not be optimal, particularly if you are acquiring data at a high rate (and would therefore be writing a lot of data). We actually use Excel in our data acquisition routine, mainly reading from a WorkSheet to get the parameters of a particular stimulus, but also writing the outcome of the response to the stimulus. As it happens, our "acquisition rate" in this example is on the order of several samples per minute, so there's no problem using Excel (we also sample 16 channels of analog data at 1 KHz -- this gets written as a binary file).
Second, if you really do want to use Excel, use the (existing) Excel file to which you want to append as the "template" argument of the New Report function. Then use the Excel Get Last Row function to position yourself at "end of file", as noted above.
Good Luck.
