Runtime parameter passing

Hi,
I have a very basic question in Java.
In C language, I used to use scanf("..") for reading the parameters entered by the std i/p-keyboard.
Now I want to do the samething in Java. Is there any way I can do that?
Thanks

Use System.in.read()

  • Dynamic Reports. Runtime parameter passing to Report Query.

    Hi everyone,
    I have developed a report using apex shared components (report query and report layout) along with BI Publisher for report printing in pdf format. the Report template is built using Template Builder for Word. I have configured my Apex4.1 env with BI Publisher 11.
    This report is working fine for hardecode ID ( like REQUEST_ID=10 ).
    to make report dynamic i have made following additions in the report
    I have added
    where clause in report query as WHERE REQUEST_ID = :REQUEST_ID (:REQUEST_ID is the text field in my page).
    Added a text field names :REQUEST_ID to get user input at run time.
    Create a button and add Repot Query URL in its properties.
    When i run the report with some valid value in :REQUEST_ID text field  i did not get expected result infect there is no record getting displayed in the PDF file.
    i think this is not the write way to do this but interestingly im not getting any error.
    please can someone guide me that how can i get this functionality in apex this way or the other ?
    Best Regards.

    Hi,
    the online help will help you on how to build a parameter list at all. For your desired functionality, all you need to do is to have the user pressing a button after he selected the parameters he want to assign values to and then create the parameter list in a PSLQL program unit in Forms.

  • How to hide the window of Runtime Parameter Form?

    I have a form and I call a report from this form.I have passed some parameters to this report.Before the browser of reports appear the window of Runtime Parameter Form.I want to hide this window of Runtime Parameter Form but I don't know how.
    Please help me!

    When calling the report, set the property PARAMFORM to NO. IF you using parameter list to pass values to report you can do as follows:
    ADD_PARAMETER(pl_id,'PARAMFORM',TEXT_PARAMETER,'NO');

  • NEED PARAMETER PASSING SAMPLE INSTALLATION ZIP FILE...

    Hello All,
    I was viewing the following page:
    http://portalstudio.oracle.com/pls/ops/docs/FOLDER/COMMUNITY/PDK/
    articles/guidelines.parameter.passing.html
    Near the end of the page it reads, "For a detailed PL/SQL portlet

    section including the Parameter Passing Sample Installation
    article and check out the source code in the downloadable zip
    file."
    The phrase "downloadable zip" near the end of this line is a link
    that is supposed to provide you with the zip file. When I click
    on this link I get the file to save as sample.zip. Files get
    downloaded but when I try to unzip it,
    I encounter error messages :
    Missing 1 bytes in Zip file (attempting to process anyway).
    Cannot open file: it does not appear to be a valid archive.
    If you downloaded this file, try downloading the file again.

    let say i have a code as below:

  • JRC bug: apostrophe in string parameter passed to Crystal Report with Command datasource to SQL Server

    Post Author: nl11087
    CA Forum: JAVA
    A single quote/apostrophe in string parameter passed to a Crystal Report with Command datasource connecting to a SQL Server database, using sqljdbc driver does not escape the special character correctly. When doing a preview in the Crystal Reports IDE it allows you to escape the input parameter as expected and work correctly, but through the JRC component it fails. For string parameters without special sql server characters I experience no problems at all. When replacing the Command with a direct table there is also no problem.
    Reproduction:
    1. create a database db1, create a table table1 with a String type column col1.
    2. Create new report Report1.rpt, create a connection to above, Add Command using 'SELECT col1, col2, col3 FROM table1 WHERE col1 = '{?Par1}' . Add a parameter field Par1 : String
    3. In your java stand alone application using JRC add the parameter Par1 with a value "Jon Doe's Value" containing a single apostrophe. Export to PDF. (I also tried MSWord and this failed too, similar behavior). Additionally, in another test try to replaceAll("'","''") to escape it, preventing the code to break, but now it does not retrieve the expected row anymore and you end up with an empty report.

    1 is at 4.
    the reason I need that is when I build seperate select for each value, I need to add the query number at the end of the select query.

  • Multiple Users on one PC sharing Java Runtime Parameter setting

    Is there a way to have mutiple logins share the -Smx512m setting in Java Runtime Parameters. It seems that when each person logs into the PC to use the application we have to enter the same Java Runtime Parametes again. Is there a way to add it once and every login uses it?
    Thanks,
    DLS

    I have read the Deployment Configuration file and Properties and do not see how the -Xmx51m should be added to the deployment.properties.
    Also it would seem you would need to use the deployment.system.config file so it would be used by all users on the PC.
    Again I can not see an example of how to put in the "Java Runtime Parameters" in the deployment.system.properties file.
    Has anyone done this before and could lead me in the correct directions?
    Thanks,

  • How to set runtime parameter for the entire system

    Hi,
    I have a problem with setting runtime parameters in jre v1.6.0_07. I have an XP computer with multiple users and to use the application eavery user must set the runtime parameter once by going to java control panel -> Java -> Java applet runtime settings -> view. How can i automate this? I have multiple users and there may be more users logging in so manually sending the C:\<userProfileDirectory>\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\deployment.properties file to all profiles is not a solution. Same question here but no solution. Every user must get this parameter when they log in, they may be new users or existing users. The software I'm trying to use is browser based, we don't trigger an exe or something from local to run the software.
    In C:\<userProfileDirectory>\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\deployment.properties file there is a line like this;
    deployment.javapi.jre.1.6.0_07.args=
    This works for a single user. I've read the instructions in [deployment guide|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/deployment/deployment-guide/properties.html] but the properties file we put in C:\WINDOWS\Sun\Java\Deployment does not support ".args=" command. Anyone encountered or have a solution for this problem?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    got solution for this problem? I am also having the same problem.
    Thanks.

  • Issue with parameter passing in ie7 to php xml

    Hi
    I wondered if anyone could offer a little advice what the issue is here.
    I have a page with xml generated from php in a separte file and presented by a dataset in spry.
    The xml is OK and in firefox it all works but ie seems to barf on it.
    The situation is this:
    I have a jump menu on a front page that provides a url with anumeric parameter passed like this
    platforms.php?platform_id=1
    This parameter is picked up by php on the platforms.php page using the $_GET Array and is passed into the code in my Spry dataset to the file that runs my query and returns my xml- so basically the page displays a dataset filtered on this parameter id.
    It works perfectly in FF.
    In IE if I link straight to the page without a parameter at all- so platforms.php the page loads OK using the default parameter I have set up in the top of this page to send the default id of 1 to the code page so the spry query says platform_sql.php?platform_id=1 and the xml generator is fine with thisiel. ie I do a
    if(isset($_GET['platform_id'])){
                                                                     $platform=$_GET['platform_id'];
    }else{
    $platform=1;
    The dataset loads Ok in IE but when I pass a parameter in the url from my jump menu IE gives a blank SPRY table i- it momentarily appears with just the placeholders for my dataset elements then vanishes. The source code of the page shows the correct id was set in the spry data going to my query file.
    There is an error in ie saying there is a javascript error but its not any help- in ie fashion- FF shown no such errors.
    I thought this might be a data type thing again in the dataset but its not - I have set the elements returned to simple strings but it still does not work.
    Is there a problem passing in a parameter like this to a spry dataset?

    After about half a day of mucking round I found the problem and a solution to this problem.
    What appeared to have happened was that some of the older content in my database used html originally encoded using a WYSWYG editor called ktml.
    Later data uses Tiny MCE. It looks like the character set of the two formats is slightly different and as a result some characters rendered incorrectly when passed through XML parsing where it specifies the character set as utf-8.
    Firefox on the whole seems to ignore the issue though looking at the raw xml output of my php-xml code- where "-" characters were (dashes) there was a question mark character shown. None the less in actual use on my page the xml was produced and the dataset worked out.
    In IE, it barfed at these same characters and failed to return the xml dataset.
    What confused the issue more was some of my smaller datasets if they by chance never had a "-" character in rendered OK in IE- hence my default dataset (platform_id=1) worked in IE. After much experimenting I noticed other ids worked too if there was never such a character.
    How I got round it was to wrap my server side data in the utf8_encode() function, and now all my xml is clean.
    The javascript error being thrown was a red herring though I could not tell until I managed to run my page in ie7 with Visual Studio Express error console running- I had this on a spare machine at work so could debug with it.
    All sorted now- now just need to find away to wrap all my datasets in collapsible panels that work.

  • Java console runtime parameter not working

    I'm tring to increase the size of memory available to my applet by adding a java runtime parameter in my Java Console. The runtime parameter is: Xmx512M
    Which changes the deployment.properties file to:
    #deployment.properties
    #Mon Nov 22 14:46:50 GMT-06:00 2004

    deployment.javapi.jre.1.5.0.path=C\:\\Program Files\\Java\\jre1.5.0
    But when I run the applet I find that my max memory has not been changed from the default (65MB). I can thell this by outputting the max memory:
    System.out.println("Memory Max = " + Runtime.getRuntime().maxMemory());
    This line results in the output:
    Memory Max = 66650112
    So this output makes me believe that the runtime parameter is not being set correctly . When I run my applet in an executable jar locally (java -Xmx1024M -jar myApplet.jar) it sets the runtime parameter fine and memory is increased as expected.
    Am I doing something wrong in the Java Control panel? Is my syntax incorrect?

    I had no problem using IE6 or mozilla 1.7.3

  • Parameter Pass Between Portlets

    Hi,
    I'm trying to get a parameter pass between two portlets on the same page, I've looked at the PDK samples but have not been able to get either working, I'm on 9iAS R2 (9.0.2.0.1.). I've installed the PDK and loaded up the various samples. Any information or guidance appreciated. In a nut shell I'd ideally like to pass a parameter from a report (java or pl/sql) in one portlet to a portlet next to it on the same page which can then run a second report (java or pl/sql).
    Regards
    Stephen

    Hi Peter,
    We have an omniportlet that displays a graph, we want the user to be able to pick a value from this graph and pass it as a parameter to another page containing another omniportlet which would select values based on the parameter value.
    We have 9ias version 9.0.2.6.2. Your help will be greatly appreciated.
    thanks,

  • Parameter passing problem to standard JSP iView

    Hi,
    I'm trying to launch a standard iView with some a parameter directly from the browser by calling the url http://<server>/<iview>?<param>=<value>
    The iView ID is com.sap.pct.hcm.ecmmain.approval and by looking at its details from the content catalog I saw there was a property called CREVI. I would like to fill this in but the iview doesn't respond to the URL params at all. Setting them staticly by editing the iView works perfect.
    I have also checked that the "Parameters to pass from Page Request" property includes * and excludes some other properties than the one I'm testing.
    I thought this was going to be simple but can't just make it work..I guess I'm missing something basic or the property can't be used? Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Mikko

    Hi Mikko,
    We have found inconsistencies with regards to parameter passing in the URL, sometimes they are read and sometimes not.  I suggest that you try to change the order of the parameters as this can affect if its read.  I also believe other parameters can interfere whether or not it is read so try various scenarios.
    Cheers,
    John

  • Parameter passing issue for HTMLDB report page

    Hi,
    I have created a HTMLDB report based on SQL query in which the where clause column needs to takeup dynamic value each time.
    So I have defined a hidden item on the page PUSERID of Source type "Static Assigment".
    And this variable is used in SQL as
    Select Name
    from employees
    where employeeid = :PUSERID
    Now when i try to run this report and pass the parameter thru the URL by edititng the URL to have parameter value as
    http://localhost:33492/pls/htmldb/f?p=104:8:8320056215249064505:::::PUSERID:CPRASAD
    This shows the page with no data found...though when i run the query manually it returns the result.
    Select Name
    from employees
    where employeeid = 'CPRASAD'
    Plz let me know the correct procedure to make this work?
    Thanks
    AJ

    Thanks Serigo..it works!
    But why we need to remove the colon?Was it symbolizing that there was no parameter passed initially on URL and later when I was expecting one which was acting as two parametes in case of my url example(one parameter as nothing and another ad PUSERID)

  • Java runtime parameter (-classpath)

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how to programmatically set the java-runtime-parameters?
    I need to set them to: "-classpath c:\jar\test.jar"
    My goal is to access test.jar thru the ActiveX Bridge, and test.jar is not inside the "applet" folder (nor the "ext" folder). Note: ActiveX bridge uses the java plug-in which has a default path to the applet folder, I need to programmatically set a java-runtime-parameter "-classpath" to c:\jar\test.jar...
    (I know that you can set the java-runtime-parameters thru control panel - java plug-in, but this will not work for what I am doing, I need to do it on the fly programmatically).
    Gene.

    People I have tried this after trying all that I could fine on the internet,
    What did not work is as follows:
    1) Setting "-Xmx512m", where "512" should be replaced by 3/4 of the system
    physical memory size.
    2) Also enable "<APPLET> tag support" for Internet Explorer. Apply settings.
    This worked for some.
    3) Also tried uncheking the box for <APPLET> but that was not to work.
    "What --WORKED-- for me at last was:"
    1. Uninstall Internet Explorer 7.
    2. Restart System.
    3. Uninstall Java 1,5 with Update 9(that was installed)
    4. Install Java version 1.5 with upgrade 5 from the link:
    http://www.tucows.com/preview/194327
    5. Then go to Start, Run, type
    iexplore
    and hit Enter.
    Try the sites now.. It works:)
    6. Then disable update for Java in Control panel. (Also do not update IE or
    JAVA after that)
    Hope this help ya all!!!

  • Getting error Invalid length parameter passed

    Hi,
    I'm getting an error running my query. It say "Invalid length parameter passed to the LEFT or SUBSTRING  function. I will be getting the string in between of hyphen using the code below. May i ask your assistance or idea on how to fix this issue.
    thank you.
     Substring(ins.itemid,11,CHARINDEX('-',ins.itemid+'-',11)-11) AS MODEL
    Msg 537, Level 16,
    State 3, Line 1
    Invalid length parameter passed to the LEFT or SUBSTRING
    function.
    Sample data of Itemid.
    B300-4410-ONEMAX-U
    B300-1725-XWHT-U
    B300-3110-VT981-U
    B300-1720-DRZRKCROBLK-U
    B300-1720-DRDTHN32BLK-U

    That'll cause empty strings to show up into you're result set but shouldn't cause the the SUBSTRING function to fail. 
    The error is the result of the SUBSTRING function trying to bring back a negative number of characters.
    Try running the following and see what comes back...
    SELECT ins.itemid
    FROM dbo.TableName ins
    WHERE LEN(ins.itemid) < 11
    If you don't find any itemids what are less than 11 characters (I'm 99% sure you will), try using a little test script like the following to test suspect values...
    IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#temp') IS NOT NULL
    DROP TABLE #temp
    GO
    CREATE TABLE #temp (
    itemid VARCHAR(30)
    INSERT #temp (itemid) VALUES
    ('B300-4410-ONEMAX-U'),
    ('B300-1725- '),
    ('B300- 3110-VT981-U'),
    ('B300-1720-DRZRKCROBLK-U'),
    ('B300- 1720-DRDTHN32BLK-U')
    SELECT ins.itemid
    FROM #temp ins
    WHERE LEN(ins.itemid) < 11
    SELECT
    SUBSTRING(
    ins.itemid, 11, CHARINDEX('-',ins.itemid+'-',11)-11) AS MODEL FROM #temp ins
