Rich Web Based GUIs

Hi.
I'm looking for some libraries available for creating rich web based gui's in Java. Things like JSuite seem to be the way to go rather than depending on web start.
What I'd like is that when a user visits the site, they would see something resembling a desktop application, rather than the usual HTML forms.
Has anyone here seen or used anything like this? I'd appreciate it if you could share some of your thoughts on how these libraries worked.
Thanks
James

I've been trolling (the good kind of trolling) the forums lateley to see if any Java programmers have tried MacroMedia Flex[url].
Here are some link to threads I've posted, with little success:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=427&thread=518133
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=31&thread=519410
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=45&thread=520247
Now Flex won't give you a Java GUI inside the web browser. (They would claim what they give you is better.)
What you will get is Java on the server-side and rich media on the client-side.

Migrate from GUI to web based application

what's the easy and the fast method to migrate java GUI application to a web based aplpication.
thanks in advance for information

There is no simple or easy or fast way if the application were not properly designed.
Does it follow the Model-View-Controller pattern? If it does, your migration path is easier. If it is the typical app (the button listener method does it all), the migration path is not.
I guess that you will have to redesign the app and reuse only very specific parts of your code, like formulae calculations.
Code is cheap, analysis and testing are not.

Front End (GUI) for Java Web Based Appl.

Hi Gurus,
I am new to Java. Can anybody tell me, what is the front end(GUI) used in Java web based applications? I was told that Swings/Applets are rarely used. Is there are a 3rd party took to design GUI for Java based applications?

we cannot have swing as front end?You can use Swing inside an Applet inside a web application, but usually that's not needed, as you already have a client application that's quite powerful (the browser).

Conversion of forms5.0 to web based application

dear folks,
i have an existing application which runs on forms 5.0. i want to
convert it to a web based application. i do not want to rewrite
the scripts.if some of you could tell me the details about how to
go about it.
null

I am not sure if there is any tool to do that.
You can delete WebSphere specific xml files from ear/jar and open it in Weblogic's builder tool. Weblogic Builder is a GUI tool. Helps you assign values for deployment parameters, Transaction attributes, JNDI names and so on. Then you can generate deployment descriptors. Subsequently you can modify the descriptors as and when you want.

WRT54G V6.0 Web Based Interface Issue

I'm trying to setup a WRT54G. I ran the SetupWizard which didn't work.
I can access the Web Based Interface at 192.168.1.1 , but when it appears (after putting in the admin password), the page doesn't properly load. The colors and some text comes up, but all of the tabs, buttons and links are missing (including the Save Settings button). I can't get to Administration page to restore the factory defaults or upgrade the firmware.
I've tried the pressing the reset button for 30 seconds about 100 times so far, and nothing has worked. I've tried this on 3 different computers, and my other 2 WRT54G's run properly on all of these computers.
I bought the router about 2 years ago and I just opened the box today.
What fixes are available?
Thanks in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If you are not able to see any Tab on your router setup page, If you have any Firewall or Antivirus installed on your computer you may disable it and then try to Login to your Router Setup page and check if you are able to see any Tabs on Routers GUI. If still not then Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable.
If you still face the same problem, Connect your other computer to the Router and try to access the router setup page and check if you are able to see any tabs on the router setup page. If stil the same problem on the 2nd computer then you need to Upgrade the firmware of your Router using TFTP tool.
First you need to Download 1.67 MB the Latest Firmware of your router.
TFTP tool which you can Download 44.3 KB (It will be named as BEFW11S4-v2_SetupWizard)
Double click the tftp.exe file and click run :
For Server- Enter the IP Address of the router that you assigned. By default, the router is 192.168.1.1...
For Password- Enter the password you assigned the router. By default, the router’s password is “admin”.
For File- Click the triple “…” button and browse for the .bin firmware file...
Click Upgrade button to start upgrading. A progress bar should show up to show the progress.
Once the Upgrade is done press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now Check if you are able to Login to your Routers GUI and able to see the Tabs on it.

WEBIs based on SQL univers don't work anymore in BI 4.1 SP2

Hello,
Since we've upgraded in BI 4.1 SP2 patch4, we can't use anymore WEBI based on SQL univers (see messages below).
Same problem with patch 6.
But it works with Rich Client.
Do you have a solution ?
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Nicolas

did you create 64bit odbc in the bo server ? if not, create and then test.

Need access the E1000's web-based setup page.

I have a Linksys E1000 wireless router, and I seem to have either written down the password incorrectly or am using the wrong one. Regardless, I can not access the web-based setup for the router. Is there anyway to reset the username and password for it?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Yes, there is. You'll have to reset the router back to defaults, which will reset the password back to the default password for your router. Unfortunately , you'll also have to reconfigure the settings, since all settings go back to factory default. Just hold press the recessed "reset" button for your router for about 30 seconds, then release it. After the router has re-initialized itself, you'll be able to log in to the web GUI again with the default password.

Managed bean/Data exchange between two ADF Rich Faces based applications

Hi,
I have been trying to research what seems to be a small issue. My requirements are as follows.
1. I need to be able to pass managed bean information from one ADF Rich Faces based application to another (in two separate ears) at runtime (e.g. from Ear1: SenderApp/Sender.jspx -> Ear2: ReceiverApp/Receiver.jspx).
2. I do not want to use the database as my applications need to be performant.
3. Serialization/de-serialization would fall pretty much under the database category. In other words, I like to avoid Serialization/de-serialization of the managed bean.
4. I cannot use query string due to security issues.
My question is as follows:
1. Is there any standard/architecture/best practices for data exchange of backing beans or other forms between two ADF Rich Faces based apps (in two separate ears)?
2. Has someone found anything similar to an applicationScope that works across applications?
I would appreciate any ideas.
Thanks very much,

Hi,
its not an ADF Faces problem, but not possible in Java EE. You can however fallback to vendor specific implementations like in WLS. From the WebLogic documentation : http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs103/webapp/sessions.html
Enabling Web applications to share the same session*
By default, Web applications do not share the same session. If you would like Web applications to share the same session, you can configure the session descriptor at the application level in the weblogic-application.xml deployment descriptor. To enable Web applications to share the same session, set the sharing-enabled attribute in the session descriptor to true in the weblogic-application.xml deployment descriptor. See “sharing-enabled” in session-descriptor.
The session descriptor configuration that you specify at the application level overrides any session descriptor configuration that you specify at the Web application level for all of the Web applications in the application. If you set the sharing-enabled attribute to true at the Web application level, it will be ignored.
All Web applications in an application are automatically started using the same session instance if you specify the session descriptor in the weblogic-application.xml deployment descriptor and set the sharing-enabled attribute to true as in the following example:
+<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>+
+<weblogic-application xmlns="http://www.bea.com/ns/weblogic/90";;>+
+...+
<session-descriptor>
+<persistent-store-type>memory</persistent-store-type>+
+<sharing-enabled>true</sharing-enabled>+
+...+
+</session-descriptor>+
+...+
+</weblogic-application>+

Non web-based content in portal

Hi all,
Is it possible to run ordrinary windows-applications with a GUI-screen, for example MS Outlook, in or from within the portal?
If yes: Where can I find out more?
Regards,
Sturla

Hi Jørgen,
Thanks for the reply.
I don't know much about the portal, but I attended a couple of cources last fall. Never used the product since then, and I can't remember too much form the cources. My boss keeps asking me questions about the portal, and lucky me told him that I beleived the content had to be web based, like for example Outlook Web Access. He wasn't pleased with my answer, so I keep seraching...
I came over Citrix MetaFrame Presentation Server . Maybe that coud be the solution(?)

Web-based user management tools???

Are there any pre-packaged or off-the-shelf tools one can use to manage unix users and groups in DS 5.2? (preferrably web based) I have found a few open source apps that are web-based but they don't seem to be production quality.
For now, I'm creating LDIF files and importing them or using the GUI console. This is tedius and the other sys admins that aren't familiar with ldap will find it difficult.
One of the open source tools I found was "Directory Administrator" which runs only under gnome, we don't use gnome.
Another tool is "LDAP Account Manager" which was originally built to manage samba users and their unix user/group attributes. We don't use samba and this application does not allow you to seperate the samba and unix components.
There has to be a simple web-based tool for managing unix users/groups. If any of you know of a commercial or free app, please let me know.

I urege to to take a look at phpldapadmin, an open-source php/web based tool for managing ldap/directory servers. We have been using it for over a year now, and find that it is easy to install, works well, and continues to receive updates on a periodic basis. Another nice thing is that since you have the php source, it's easy to modify for local modifications.
You can find it at:
http://phpldapadmin.sourceforge.net/

Good headless web-based torrent server/client solution?

I have a headless server in my attic that I'm mingling with, and one of the things I'd really like to do is get a headless torrent solution going. Web-based would be best for portability, but I surely wouldn't mind using a GUI app either! SSH sessions (like rtorrent) and vnc options are something I want to completely avoid. So far, I've tried Deluge, torrentflux-b4rt, and Azureus. Deluge is super-buggy and crashes every time I try to do anything useful. torrentflux-b4rt is awesome, but it's a little too heavy. When I get a few torrents going, the webui starts to stutter and lag. Azureus is what I'm messing with now, but the webui is extremely limited. Are there any other options out there?

I use the transmission client. Its got some bugs in it now though, but its in the repos as transmission-cli. Its pretty cool once you get past the lack of documentation. The man pages are pretty good, but thats about all you have to go on. Also, the web gui is broken in Arch.
After reading about rTorrent, I might switch...

Deepak,
There is no free lunch anywhere in this world, and the same is true for the training as well of Oracle modules. If you can't get time out to attend an Instructor based training, you have two choices,
1) Self Study CD Roms Oracle offers the trainining in a self paced learning format with CD Roms which have all whatis needed to make one start and grow with the learning of a specific module. You can check which module you need and can order the cd rom for that. Learn more about this from here,
http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=35
2) Live Virtual Class This is the newest standard that Oracle has introduced in the training formats. As the name suggests, this is a class which is surely taught by an instructor only but this doens't need you to come and attend a course at a specific location , for example at Oracle's education office. You can attend the prorgam while being at your home/office as well. It offers rich video/audio expereince which doesn't make you feel that you are just learning sitting in front of a computer. Learn more about it from here,
http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=233
That said, both the options mentioned above are NOT free and there is NO free event happening anywhere which goes from the start to finish of a module. There are some small web events but they can't be called a training class as there are just some topics discussed in them. So once again, don't look for free lunch, its not there anywhere.

Tools for Developing Rich Web Applications

What tools are others using to Develop Web applications
against BW 3.5? I have a few years of experience developing web applications using Visual Studio .NET and C#, but the .net PDK is not an option in our current environment.
I was thinking that writing jsp's would give me the flexibility I needed to develop Rich web applications, but being new to SAP BW I am not sure.
I am looking for tools in which I can control result sets, write logical code based on users information to filter and return data.
Please list technologies and Languages.

Hi Jimmy. As it relates to SAP, you can use a couple different technologies. JSP on the java side, or BSP on the ABAP side will allow you to do pretty much anything you want. It allows you to use HTML and javascript and also HTMLB. You could also use Web Dynpro. Web Dynpro is SAP's new UI strategy. It is designed to help you create business transactions, so the UI elements are stardard and cannot be modified. But its cool, because you drag/drop your ui elements in the layout. Web Dynpro allows you to create robust web applications without coding the UI and allows you to focus on the business logic. Of course there is some coding to handle UI, and flow, but not as much as when you are developing JSP or BSP.

Rich Heilman
