Questions about Oracle Developer

Hi,
Can anyone provide me with information regarding the difference between Oracle Developer 6.0 and Oracle Developer Server 6.0? I need to use the Developer tools to connect to a remote server for development purpose and would like to know which software I have to use.
Thanks!

Hi! Please post this question in the Forms6i or Oracle Reports forums. Forms and Reports were previously parts of Oracle Developer.
Thanks!

A question about Oracle 1g R2 Enterprise Edition license

Dear all,
I have a question about Oracle license and I would appreciate if you could kindly help me.
I have installed an Oracle server (11g R2 Enterprise edition) on a linux virtual machine. The pc used for this purpose
is my enterprise laptop (therefore a professional and not a personal Computer). However, I use the this Oracle Server
only for learning purpose, that is, only for running the examples in my Oracle Press books (SQL, PL/SQL and some
administration tasks) just for learning the stuff.
There is absolutely no data related to my enterprise, stored or used on this server. Whenever I want to work with my
enterprise data, I use the Oracle server of the enterprise which has of course the appropriate license. So as I said, I
use this Enterprise server on the virtual machine only for running queries/programs in my Oracle Press books just for
learning and I'm the sole person who uses this server (no remote connection for other users).
The reason for which I needed to install this server on my PC was that our DBA couldn't provide a training environment
for me with all required privileges and functionalities.
Am I supposed to buy a license for this installed Enterprise server on my virtual machine?
Thanks in advance,
Dariyoosh

I think self training can be considered in this category, therefore I think there is no need to buy a license for that.

About oracle development tools

I have heard about oracle development tools are supported to use visual studio.
I am confused , is it for developing whole application as we design in oracle designer and forms builder or just for debug
the PL/SQL codes?
please tell me about oracle development tools that can we develop entire the application using pl/sql codes in visual studio 10 or later and having more features of visual studio.?

You should read the page provided more closely.
Oracle developing tools provides interface to ASP, .NET and other Microsoft-developed interface drivers to databases.
ODT make application development of an ASP or .NET application connecting to Oracle RDBMS easy.
On of top of that it also includes a PL/SQL debugger.
PL/SQL is a backend language.
It is not possible and will never be possible to develop an application solely by using PL/SQL
Forms Builder uses more than PL/SQL, Apex does too, JDeveloper does too.
PL/SQL doesn't contain any graphical interface.

Several questions about oracle ASM in 11gR2.

Hi, all.
The db is 11.2.0.3 on a linux machine.
I have several questions about oracle ASM functionality.
1. V$ASM_DISKGROUP.ALLOCATION_UNIT_SIZE is the stripe size in bytes??
2. V$ASM_DISK.DISK_NUMBER is unique to a physical disk??
3. if the second question is the case,
disk_number=0 (a physical disk) has 14 partition on it.
And each partition belongs to several diskgroups.
Is ths right??
with q1 as (
     select /*+ use_hash(b,a) */
          disk_number,b.group_number,b.name,a.path,sum(os_mb) tot_size ,count(*) cnt

1. No. The stripe size always equals 128 KB in any configuration.
(http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e18951/asmcon.htm#BABCGDBF)That is not a true statement. Please read the document, the stripe size depends upon what method of striping we using (fine-grained or coarse-grained)
--from the same oracle document:
To stripe data, Oracle ASM separates files into stripes and spreads data evenly across all of the disks in a disk group. The fine-grained stripe size always equals 128 KB in any configuration; this provides lower I/O latency for small I/O operations. The coarse-grained stripe size is always equal to the AU size (not the data extent size).
--are we using fine grained or coarse-grained ? and how to change the striping method (using TEMPLATES)

Basic Questions about Oracle E-Business Suite

I am just now starting to learn about Oracle E-Business Suite.
I am an Oracle DBA, and I want to become an "Oracle Apps DBA".
The following questions pertain to the DATABASE side of E-Business:
*(1)* Is "Oracle E-Business Suite", and "Oracle Applications 11i" the
same product?
*(2)* Is Release 12, the current version of E-Business Suite?
*(3)* What is the Release of E-Business Suite that most Businesses are
currently using?
*(4)* I want to use 1GB of RAM, for the Laptop, that I want to install
E-Business Suite on, and it will be running under Oracle
Enterprise Linux -- Will this type of setup be OK for building a
personal training and learning environment (especially RAM size)?
*(5)* How much disk space do I need, just to do a basic install (no
demo databases)?

Hi,
*(1)* Is "Oracle E-Business Suite", and "Oracle Applications 11i" the
same product?Yes, it even includes R12.
*(2)* Is Release 12, the current version of E-Business Suite?Yes, the most recent versions of R12 are (12.1.1 and 12.1.2).
*(3)* What is the Release of E-Business Suite that most Businesses are
currently using?Depends, some customer still on 11i while other customer managed to upgrade to R12 (or did a fresh installation/implementation of R12).
*(4)* I want to use 1GB of RAM, for the Laptop, that I want to install
E-Business Suite on, and it will be running under Oracle
Enterprise Linux -- Will this type of setup be OK for building a
personal training and learning environment (especially RAM size)?1 GB RAM is not enough, I would suggest you have 4 GB RAM (or more if possible).
*(5)* How much disk space do I need, just to do a basic install (no
demo databases)?This is documented in the installation manual, please refer to it to get the hardware requirements.

About Oracle Developer Suite

Hello,
I wanna know what's the newest version of Oracle Developer Suite? I found only 10.1.2.0.2 which includes JDeveloper 10.1.2.1, but i need JDeveloper 10.1.3. Do i need to install sepparately the 10.1.3 version of JDeveloper?
Thanks!

Note that there is now JDeveloper11g.
What was the developer suite (the bundle of builders) is now part of the main FMW build.

Question about Tutorial: Developing RIA Web Applications with Oracle ADF

I'm learning about ADF and JDeveloper:
According to the tutorial, after I've bound the data controls for the top right panel and bottom right panel, the bottom panel should always show the employee selected from the collection above.
However when I do the instructions, the employee information in the bottom right employee area never changes regardless if I select a different employee in the top panel collection.
I can't figure out why the top and bottom panels don't link together. I'm using the same View in both panels....
I'm using Build JDEVADF_11.1.1.1.0_GENERIC_090615.0017.5407
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
Rob

The mechanism that synch the two section of the page is called partial page rendering.
It should work if you follow the instructions in the tutorial, but if it doesn't it is quite easy to fix:
In the structure pane, select the Form component that surrounds the employees update section
Then look at the properties inspector for a property call partial trigger
Click the arrow on the right of it to select edit - and navigate your page hierarchy to choose the table component.
An example is here:

Question about Oracle Database 11g: Program with PL/SQL

Hello,
I've read that:
This course is a combination of Oracle Database 11g: PL/SQL Fundamentals and Oracle Database 11g: Develop PL/SQL Program Units courses.
In order to preparing for this exam, i should read the student guide, so there are 4 pdf files. One is Oracle Database 11g: PL/SQL Fundamentals, and the other 3 are regarding to Oracle Database 11g: Develop PL/SQL Program Units (volume I, II and III). My question is, regarding to this last one (Oracle Database 11g: Develop PL/SQL Program Units), which volume should i read? I saw that volume I has 400+ pages, and the IIIrd ~80.
Which document should i read? What's the difference between them?
Thanks!

Passing the exam and becoming certified are not a matter of simply reading a book or taking a training class. While books and classroom materials as well as in-class training are all important steps in preparing for an exam, experience and research are just as important. I cannot tell you that there are 53 questions on the exam and every single question maps directly back to page 13, paragraph 3 in XX book. However, If you have the classroom material, and you have the list of exam topics, you should be able to find most of the information you need. In some cases, if you are not completely familiar with a specific topic, or you don't feel like the information in the book gives you all the information you need, you may need to do a little additional research. This is all part of preparing for an exam. This process is what makes you successful as a certified professional.
Your focus seems to be solely on the course materials that you have and what volumes and chapters you should read. I'm trying to give you a different perspective - preparing for an exam is not necessarily about taking one course or reading one book and being ready. You need to review the exam topics and be sure that you are familiar with each topic.

Misc. questions about Oracles SOA software

Hello,
I am a computer science student at the Fachhochschule Aachen in Germany and i'm writing my master thesis about serviceoriented architectures.
Amongst other products i plan to present what oracle has to offer for SOA. But i'm missing some information, which i couldn't find at the website. I hope somebody can help me with my questions:
1) Is it correct that you only need the Application Server and the SOA Suite for a basic SOA setup? And the SOA Suite is included in the Enterprise Edition of the Application Server?
2) The SOA Suite contains the BPEL Process Manager. I just want to know which version of BPEL this tool supports: BPEL4WS 1.0, 1.1, WS-BPEL (2.0)?
3) In my thesis i describe several standards that help with serviceoriented architectures. I want to check if these standards are implemented and if they are, in which product, which version and how extensively? These standards are:
- WS-Policy, WS-Adressing
- JBI (Java Business Integration)
- SCA/SDO (Service Component Architecture/Service Data Objects)
- WS-CDL (Web Service Choreography Description Language)
Are there other important (open) standards i didn't mention (other than the real basic stuff, WSDL, SOAP etc)?
4) What tools does Oracle provide for testing the services and processes?
5) What support does Oracle provide for new customers, that are building their first SOA?
Every help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Three questions about the developer tools

At my company we have evaluated this very handy tool, and we have only three questions...
* Will the autocomplete feature be more intelligent. For example pl/sql developer recognize partially written table names and suggest a full name.
* How to debug and step through the procedures?? This is a MUST!!!!
* Is it possible to add source control integration (source safe) for the packages/procedures?
With these features, it will be super!!
/henrik

When I was at the VSLive in San Francisco back in February, I spent some time at the Oracle booth and I asked for Source Control also.
I was told to my happy suprise that lots of other developers had been asking for that also but I was shocked when the Oracle reps told me that they didn't understand why people would want this feature or how they would use it. They tried to convince me that "Generate Create Script" was what I wanted.
Btw, "Generate Create Script" ticks me off. It always sticks the package owner in the create script and when I check it back in VSS I have to go in and edit it back out!!!
It seems to me that the mindset behind many Oracle tools is to work "on the database". I will admit that I don't use many Oracle tools. I used Procedure builder a few times but thats about it. To me it seemed pretty clunky, but it was nice to be able to debug a stored procedure. Or it was until you crashed the SP and it became locked in the database and un-updatable without a bounce ;)
Most developers that I know, prefer to work "on their hard-drives" and publish to the database or some variation on that.
I would love to see a tool for editing SPs and Packages where I could check out my code, make a change, compile it on the DB, and check my changes back into the source control. One more catch, we use VSS's ability to update the version number in a source code file on check-in so the version that ends up in the DB should have the "new" version number in the comment header.
Also, the "Auto Code Generation" tool is not geared towards the type of code I write. I thought we were supposed to get away from writing data access code in our forms? Yet, this tool throws all kinds of stuff in for doing just that and no tools to make it easier (that I could find) to create a data acces layer for wrapping my stored procedures and packages. Where are these tools, Oracle? Help us write better code, not worse.
The autocomplete is nice, but I have trouble with it. For example, if I type a table name and "." it will bring up all the columns in the table. If I type "R" it scrolls to the first column that starts with "R". But if I type "S" next, instead of scrolling to the first column that starts with "RS" it spits out the currently selected column and sticks an "S" on the end. Other times it doesn't work at all.
The "Query" window is next to useless. It should work more like a SQL Plus (DOS) window. Or at the very least more like a SQL Server Query Analyzer Query window. I'll keep my SQL Plus until this is way better.
Hopefully the next version (or 2 or 3) will be better. I hope Oracle is listening. They did acknowledge that other developers were asking for some of the same improvements.

[Urgent] Some questions about Oracle Portal 10g - 11g upgrade

Dear friends,
We are under doing upgrading assessment of Oracle Portal from 10g to 11g. After reviewed the 'upgrading guide', we still have some questions as below:
1. Whether the 'Instant Portal' feature remain in Oracle Portal 11g? If yes, how to migrate the Instant Portal 10g sites? If no, any workaround?
2. Whether the old 10g Page Group and Pages will be still available after 11g upgrade? Also can customer import the old 10g transportset into Portal 11g?
3. How about the customized Portal 10g objects (such as customized template, style, attributes) after 11g upgrade? Still be usable?
4. Customer use PDK to develop many portlets in 10g. Can they use JDeveloper 11g to migrate their old project to 11g automatically?
Thank you in advance and any comment are welcome.

1. Whether the 'Instant Portal' feature remain in Oracle Portal 11g? If yes, how to migrate the Instant Portal 10g sites? If no, any workaround?Instant Portal is not available anymore in Oracle Portal 11g. The Instant Portal page groups will be migrated to standard Portal page groups. Maintenance of the Instant Portal can be done with the standard Portal tools. The Instant Portal tools are not available anymore.
Whether the old 10g Page Group and Pages will be still available after 11g upgrade? Also can customer import the old 10g transportset into Portal 11g?Old 10g Page Groups are migrated to Portal 11g. They will still be available after the upgrade.
Export/Import through transports sets has always been limited to instances of the same version. It is not supported between versions as documented in the Administration Guide :
[11.2.1|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/portal.1111/e10239/cg_imex.htm#CCJBCCGD] System Requirements
Before exporting and importing content, ensure that your system meets the minimum system requirements, as described in this section.
Notes:
* Export and import functions only within the same release of Oracle Portal and the same patch release, for example, release 10.1.4 to release 10.1.4 or release 11.1.1 to release 11.1.1. You cannot export and import between two different releases, such as release 10.1.2 to release 10.1.4 or release 10.1.4 to release 11.1.1.
How about the customized Portal 10g objects (such as customized template, style, attributes) after 11g upgrade? Still be usable?Customized objects get migrated as well. Certain types (e.g. PL/SQL item types) need to be checked after upgrade as the behavior of the PL/SQL code may differ between database versions. This is particularly of concern when the 10.1.4.x Portal uses a 10.1 database. A database upgrade to either 10.2, 11.1 or 11.2 is necessary as Portal 11g is not supported with RDBMS 10.1.
Customer use PDK to develop many portlets in 10g. Can they use JDeveloper 11g to migrate their old project to 11g automatically?Never done this, but the Portal framework is able to consume JPDK providers which are running in older versions of the toolkit. If the providers are running in standalone OC4J containers, you would be able to upgrade the framework and keep the providers in their OC4J containers. This will allow you to focus on the framework first and worry about your providers later.
Thanks,
EJ

Question about Oracle Client Software

Hi!
I'm going to develop a software which will access an Oracle Database somewhere on the network. This software will be developed using C++ language and will run on a Linux RedHat 7.3 machine.
Searching for APIs to connect with Oracle Database, I found OCI and OCCI, which I think will do this job. Also, in another thread in this group, I found that I have to install Oracle Client Software on the machine which will run my software. Then I came into a question: is it possible to install Oracle Client Software alone in a machine, I mean, without the entire database? If yes, how about the licenses? Do I have to have a Oracle Client License for each machine running my software or is it free for Linux?
Thanks in advance,

Newbie question about Oracle Parallel Server and Real Application Cluster

I am trying to find out what kind of storage system is supported by the 9i Real Applicaton cluster. I have looked at the 8i Oracle Parallel Server which requires raw partitions and therefore NAS (network attached storage) that provides an interface at the file level will not work. Does anyone know if the 9i Real Application cluster has a similar requirement for raw partitions? any suggestions of whether SAN or other technology will be suitable? pointers to more information is appreciated.

Hi Derik,
I know this is a really broad question. No, it happens all the time! Here is a similar issue:
http://blog.tuningknife.com/2008/09/26/oracle-11g-performance-issue/
+"In the end, nothing I tried could dissuade 11g from emitting the “PARSING IN CURSOR #d+” message for each insert statement. I filed a service request with Oracle Support on this issue and they ultimately referred the issue to development as a bug. Note that Support couldn’t reproduce the slowness I was seeing, but their trace files did reflect the parsing messages I observed."+
I would:
1 - Start by examining historical SQL execution plans (stats$sql_plan or dba_hist_sql_plan). Try to isolate the exact nature of the decreased performance.
Are different indexes being used? Are you geting more full-table scans?
2 - Migrate-in your old 10g CBO statistics
3 - Confirm that all init.ora parms are identical
4 - Drill into each SQL with a different execution plan . . .
Raid 5 Don't believe that crap that all RAID-5 is evil. . . .
http://www.dba-oracle.com/t_raid5_acceptable_oracle.htm
But at the same time, consider using the Oracle standard, RAID-10 . . .
Hope this helps . . .

VERY Basic Questions about Oracle eBusiness - what "languages" are used?

Please forgive the very basic nature of this post- (I have been in systems (IT) for over 20 years, so I do have lots of systems experience, but no exposure to this particular software.)
So here are the basic questions - I assume that much of the data base logic is written in PL/SQL, but what other tools / languages are the applications written in?
(Oracle Forms, Oracle Reports, Java, C, something else?)
With over 20 years and experience with a number of other packages, I can learn a great deal about an application by 1. Looking at the DB structures (charts), 2. looking into DB code (Packages, triggers, procedure, functions) and 3. Seeing the screen shots.
None of my customers have had Oracle eBusiness - that have had home grown applications or other COTS/packages.
can anyone suggest a place where an independent person can inexpensively get some exposure?
My sincere thanks for any answers/suggestions.
