Replace VBX Control with Java Bean

Question

Hi All,
While compiling 6i forms in 10g I got this error of VBX Control (Obsolete)
The document says replace it with JavaBeans.
I don’t know how to replace a VBS Control with Java Bean but this is what I did, I selected the item type as Bean Area.
But the item do have a trigger
begin
control_lib.when_tab_changed(:control.tab_ctl)
end
The Package CONTROL_LIB is coded as below.
Will this code work, technically I think yes, but its always better to ask experts before I move this to test...
package body control_lib is
g_tab_id number := 0
procedure when_tab_changed
(p_tab_id number) is
l_err_txt varchar2(255);
begin
if :system.block_status != 'QUERY' then
if not good_quiet_post(l_err_txt) then
raise form_trigger_failure;
end if
end if
if p_tab_id = 0 then
rpt_ln_lib.new_tab;
elsif p_tab_id = 1 then
stat_lib.new_tab;
elsif p_tab_id = 2 then
per_acc_rl_lib.new_tab;
end if
g_tab_id := p_tab_id
exception
when form_trigger_failure then
:control.tab_ctl := g_tab_id
synchronize
end when_tab_changed
Thanks to all.

A Java bean is another technology than VBX control.
If some document says: Replace it with java bean it certainly means to use a similar java bean with a similar functionality.
I do not know a java bean, which runs VBX controls.
So you surely have to look at what yout VBX does an than to look after a proper java bean (or to write an own one).
