Question about Test Form Builder

Can someone validate my understanding?
I have an application view which has one service. The parameters for
adding a service is the service name,desc, input schema and output schema.
Now I want to test the service after deploying it.
My understanding is the TestFormBuilder.java will construct the test form
based on the
input schema i defined for the service. Is this correct?
Thanks in advance.

Kishore,
TestFormBuilder.java does build the test form, but only for the DBMS adapter.
This class is an example of how you would do this for your Adapter specific
service parameters. It is too error prone to make TestFormBuilder generic
enough for all potential adapters.
Cheers,
Chris

Few common questions about Mobile Forms

Hello, everyone!
I have a few questions about mobile forms:
Can a form be integrated with a portal, which is build NOT on Adobe CQ\AEM technology?
I've created a form and loaded it to the server repository via Form Manager. Now I can access it in my browser like this:
http://testlcserver:8080/lc/content/xfaforms/profiles/hrform.html?contentRoot=repository%3 A%2F%2F%2FApplications%2FTest%2F1.0&template=UberForm.xdp&dataRef=
And the question is: what is the right way to share forms to users on a production environment (without integration in a portal pages on so on, let it be just a link to a form which users have to fill in)? I mean, should it be the same link, or it is only for developers need and to share forms to users some other way must be used?

For integrating on custom portal, you would need to integrate with form submit proxy for handling of submission as mentioned @ http://helpx.adobe.com/livecycle/help/mobile-forms/mobile-forms-service-proxy.html.
As far as url of form is concerned, it’s really up you. You can choose to hide the request parameters as couple of other customers are doing. You can find more information about hiding form template and content root from request parameter @ http://blogs.adobe.com/foxes/hide-parameters-from-mobile-form-url/

Question about using Forms in a special project or not

Hi,
We have a project which must be available via internet. The estimated users of this application, in worth case, can be something about 2000. All users belong to a company but are distributed around the country.
All the development team in our company know Forms Builder (up to 10g) and have several years experience in using that in different projects. Two of our developers know APEX and non of us knows java and ADF.
My question is that is it really possible to develop such an application using Forms? Can we just use APEX for that? or we have to jump into Jdeveloper and ADF? Please look at the problem from all aspects if you would like to guide me. What i mean is that if you say we have to use java and ADF, then learning of these is a seperate project itself and we don't have a large time window for project. The budjet of project is also a serious thing.
Thanks in advance,
Alireza Vali

2000 concurrent sessions...now that would require quite a big application server farm if you are using forms for this project. As you have experience in PL/SQL and none in Java/ADF the decision shouldn't be that hard. Java is an Object Oriented language whereas PL/SQL is procedural which means quite different ways of doing things when you e.g. want to write APIs. If you don't have any expierience in any Object Oriented language starting off with a quite big project in java might not be a good idea. This doesn't mean that you shouldn't learn java at all, but when learning a new language you usually start with a "Hello World" application, and not with writing a operating system with that language.
APEX on the other hand is plain PL/SQL and not just for small websites; a good sample is the asktom site; it is written in APEX and I guess it has a fair amount of traffic.
So APEX has some benefits
- you have already knowledge in house
- you are familiar with the language
- APEX doesn't require an application server license; you can use oracle XE and if you don't want to expose the database to the www use a plain apache server to handle the http request
So if it were me, APEX would be the way to go.

Hierarchical Tree Items question, in Oracle9i forms builder ^^;

Hi,I'm kind of new to using the Hierachical Tree item in Oracle9i Forms builder. so anyway,in the book it was explaining how it's done clearly,but, what I want to do using that item is kind of different;
in the book it has the way of making it like a navigator for the items/fields/tables in the database,either by creating a view for those fields by using Select Statements or using the whole table itself.
however,what I'm trying to do is to have that tree list the names of Forms I have already created and probably the list of Reports I got,so it would sort of like a Menu and I could add a trigger to open the form/report once an item in the tree is double clicked on
here's an example of what I'm talking about :
http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/_Crzy_Chck_/Htree.jpg
sorry the screen shot isn't the best ^^;
that's from a company my friend works at,they have that tree as a menu for their forms and reports,once u double click on a form name or a report,it opens up ^^;
I tried google/yahoo,I got the same info I found on the book.

Or you may want to check out this code:
   PROCEDURE next_menu(
      menu_in                                        IN OUT   NUMBER

this is a recursive function that keeps calling itself untill the query finds no more record.
Good Luck!

Simple question about tabular forms: error in MRU

hi to all,
i write here to check if what i think about tabular forms is confirmed.
If i build a master- detail or tabular form and the underlying table are modified, the page where the tabulare form is contained doesn't work anymore.
if what i've written above is correct, is there a way to realign the fields of the tabular forms to the db fields and make my page work again without rebuilding all?
Can i modify something, somewhere inside apex to make my page run again?
The error i get (in italian / english)
Error in mru internal routine: ORA-20001: Errore in MRU: riga= 0, ORA-20001: ORA-20001: La versione corrente dei dati nel database è cambiata da quando l'utente ha iniziato il processo di aggiornamento. checksum corrente = "ED73B05FA6016F8D5F3B4B5B69AF482D", checksum elementi = "CFD72DCC4221A340057D654B54EA7A04"., update "NEWPROJ"."CNT_VAL_SEG_DEMO" set "ID" = :b1, "FK_CNT" = :b2
Means: The version of data in db (fields of the tables?) has changed since the user started the update process.
By the way this sentence under my opinion can trick you as
in italian 'La versione corrente dei dati nel database'
can means both that data contained in tables have changed (dml error / process error / data the user see not are the real underlying data). Can mean as well the field definition is changed, however a more meaningful message in italian is: ' la definizione delle tabelle usate dall'oggetto tabular form é cambiata'.
That translated in english is ' DDL of table/s used by tabular form has changed'.
thanx a lot

HI Heinz,
yes is now clear, however is a pity that a litte change in the query has a lot of
implications: a change in the structure of DB means new feature / the data model is not alligned with current requirement. So usually (but not always) it means changing the SELECT as well.
Such Apex is a Rad an impression is that if you build a complex forms with several linked reports / field and one day you have to change the query of the TABULAR FORM / MASTER DETAIL generated with report you get a lot of rebuilding.
I think i will avoid the use of this 2 object in the future and use more htmldb.items in the select.
bye bye

Newbee questions about XE application builder

Hi
I find that Oracle support someting that we can use to build some real database driven applications
i have some questions about it :
1-Does this application builder differ from Oracle 10g R2 Application builder ? i means is it limited ?
2-Does any one use it to build a real world application that works some where in some business place ?
3-what is its behind code and technology , does it use JSF and managed Beans ? how i can see the generted codes ?
Thanks

Hello,

Question about creating Forms in Java.

Hello , im new to Java , i find kinda weird how Java creates Forms , its pretty simple in Oracle Forms ,
why did Java designers make it this difficult ? do people say this is something bad about Java ?
when i learned about the Layout Managers that Java provides i found out how much code one have to write just to create a simple form ,my question to the experienced java developers : what do you do to create a form , do you hard code it ? , or do you use something like GUI Builder in an IDE like NetBeans for example? and is the code generated by this builder easy to deal with and modify ?
Thanks ....

why did Java designers make it this difficult ? do people say this is something bad about Java ?Some Oracle Forms fans certainly do. But the truth is that Oracle Forms application tie down all the components in fixed pixels. The typical Swing form can be resized and can function at different screen resolutions. So, when designing a Java form, we don't tend to work on a fixed grid but define the sizes and positions relative to other components. What's more the interface between the form elements and the data is completely flexible, and flexibility means extra effort.

Most I've tried have been a bit of a straitjacket, but I've recently been using the latest Netbeans offering and it's pretty good. I think the breakthrough was the introduction of the GroupLayout layout manager. This is a layout manager really designed for WYSIWYG form designers (pretty challenging to use hand coded).
The way these things work is that the class generated contains some methods which cannot be edited by hand, but you can add any amount of your own code without interfering with the generated code. You hook your own code snippets into the generated code, for example you can select a property of an object, say the model of a JTree, and select "user code", then type in an expression returning the TreeModel you want to use.
With listeners the designer will generate the method signature etc. but you can edit the body of the listener method.
However I would always recommend that you hand code a form or two before resorting to on of these editors because it's important you understand the code, even where a designer writes it.

Questions About Data Form

Hi guys,
just a general question: When we make a "big" data form, it typically causes performance issues or crashes. My question is, what is limiting the size of the data form? Is it the fact that Essbase has to pull up a lot of data at once? Is it the fact that web applications are limited in capacity? Would just like to get people's thoughts on this general issue.
Another general, somewhat vague question: IF I did want to make a huge data form, lets just say 10 cost centers, 400 accounts per cost center on the rows and period, a couple of scenarios and years on the columns, would it help if I created a machine dedicated to the planning web app? Would increasing RAM/CPU help ?

Increasing the RAM will certainly help with forms as large forms can cause the Java application to crash, remember if it is 32bit planning you are restricted on the maximum memory setting, which is 2GB but in reality about 1.4-1.6GB

A question about pdf form filling?

Hello,
I received a form in PDF format as an attachment in an e-mail reply from a travel company. I have to fill in this form and return it to the sender.
I could print out the PDF form manually fill the required field and either fax to them or scan & send it as an attachment BUT
I would wish to open the document on my Mac Book Air -fill in the requested field by typing in my Mac Book Air and send it back as an attachment.
Is that possible? I could not do this in my Win 7 computer but wondered if my Mac would have tricks up it's sleeve to accomplish this task?
Thank you for your time to answer my question.
Regards

Thank you for your time and an answer.
I do have Microsoft Word.
I do not know how to insert the PDF as watermark. Where do you find the picture radio button?
Would you mind telling the step involved in getting my pdf file opened in the Microsoft Word?

Some question about Test Stand

First question
1. I want to remove the path witch appears in each report file (MainSequence)
2. Other question it is regarding the Include limits in report file or not. I my project I need to change during execution this property.
It is possible to change this property during execution, if Yes please send me an example.
Thank you,

The step that adds the sequencefile path is named “Add Sequence Name”, in the “Main” stepgroup, of the sequence “AddSequenceResultToReport”, in the sequencefile “reportgen_html.seq”. It can be found in the same folder as the default process models. Either remove the step or set its Run Mode to “Skipped”. This is the case if you are using html reporting (you should be able to find a similar step in the corresponding sequencefiles of the other two report types). Also, you must have chosen in your Report Options to use Sequence instead of DLL for the reporting.
The limits for any step should be a part of your Context container. There are many different places where they reside within that container as different properties depending on which step is currently executing. The easiest way is to change their value for their own step. Just use a pre- or post- expression to change the value of Step.Result.Limits.high (or low). If you are changing the limits of a step from another step within the same sequencefile, you might use a lookup string that looks like this: RunState.SequenceFile.Data.Seq["MainSequence"].Main["Numeric Limit Test"].Limits.Low.
I hope that you find the answers to these two questions helpful. You should have all of the information that you need to accomplish these two tasks. Take care and good luck!

Aaron B.

Questions about Windows App Builder

Is there an additional charge, under a Professional account, for building a Windows app?
About how long does it take from submitting the folio to receiving the file to upload?
Does a new app need to be built each time I add a new folio to a multi-folio app?
Thanks,
Joe

Hi Joe,
There is no additional charge for a Windows app if you are making the Windows version of a title you previously created on iOS and/or Android. I usually turn around custom build requests within a couple of hours if I receive them during business hours. At most it takes 24 hours.
Just like on iOS and Android there is no need to update the app when you publish new folios. You just publish the folio and it is available instantly.

Questions About Interactive Forms

I have a project that reqires an application and background check authorization. I want to have these forms on my website as an interactive form that can be opened by a potential applicant, filled out on their computer and submitted back to me. I want to receive the completed application back in PDF form filled out and with a signature.
What do I need with my website and background apps to make this happen. Do I need some type of server application to make this happen.
Next, what are the accepted ways of having a document/application signed by an applicant and delivered to me digitally.
Thanks

George
Thanks for the quick reply. If it's an e-mail would I receive the actual
form used or just the content the applicant input. I would want the actual
document with a signature. If storing on my server would it be the document
and input if so that would be a better option so I could download and print
out if needed.
A digital signature field I would trust would be the way to go for us.
Here's a synopsis of my needs.
I am hiring guys to play the role of Santa and make phone calls to children
at Christmas and I need a multi-part application so I can have background
checks run so I have an extensive multi-page application and contract plus
background check authorization already designed in PDF form but this last
year we had to e-mail it and wait for US Postal delivery of the completed
application and I want a streamlined online way to handle the application
and hiring process because I will have 75 - 100+ possible applicants this
year.

Question about Creating Forms in Acrobat 9 Pro

I designed an invoice form to send to my clients that allows me to easily fill out form data and automatically email to my client. Everything works great, but when I send it, the form is still active and I want the fields to be closed for alteration. How can I make this happen?
many thanks!

What I would do is flatten the form, which converts the form fields to regular page contents so that they are no longer interactive. There are a number of ways to do this, including JavaScript, PDF Optimizer (Discard Objects > Flatten form fields), and Preflight (Flatten all form fields fixup).
Edit: I did not see the previous responses when I posted this, due toforum wierdness, so sorry for the duplication.

Question about using Forms Central for making fillable school worksheets

Can Forms Central be used to create (fillable) school worksheets for my son, that he can then open and type responces to? That is the only thing I need it for. For instance, I would like to make worksheets for spelling that would ask him to type certain spellings words (from a list) where long a is spelled ai, et cetera.

Sure - that sound like a very achievable form to create using FormsCentral. You can/should give it a try by creating a free account and either creating a new form from "blank" (new custom form) or starting with a related Template you would modify. You can see if it would work for you, you can have one form at a time in your free account, you can always delete the one you try out and then try another.
Thanks,
Josh
