Shared Components - Comments - which View?

I am trying to find which APEX view holds the field for Shared Components - Comments. On the Shared Components page, there is a COMMENTS link. Which APEX view stores those comments? It seems like it would be stored in APEX_APPLICATIONS view, but i don't see the comments field there.
Thanks for your help,
John

Hi,
A useful query to know which views have comment column is the following:
select apex_view_name, column_name from apex_dictionary where COLUMN_NAME LIKE '%COMMENT%';

Exporting Shared Components

The present method I have of exporting Shared Components in Portal (Oracle 9i) is within Portal itself, exporting Fonts, Images, and user templates
individually.
Is there an automated COMMAND LINE method of exporting these Shared Components?

Which version of Portal you are using?
Is it 3.0.9 or 9.0.2 ?
For 9.0.2 there is an option to bulk export/import the shared components by way of transport set.

In witch table the information of Shared Components are stored?

Hi all,
I want to get the some information from 'Shared Components' especially the 'Version' in category 'Definition' -> 'Name' using an SQL query. In witch table could I find this information?
cheers,
ben

Ben,
Check out the Application Express data dictionary views, in this case the view apex_applications against which the following query will show you the version attribute of an application XXX:
select version from apex_applications where application_id=XXX;
Queries against these views can be issued from the SQL Workshop after you authenticate to the workspace of interest or they can be issued from within your application.

Version Control of APEX Pages and Shared Components

Background:
My organisation has a large customer base and over the last 2 years we have migrating from a forms to an apex user presentation layer. We have had a number of customers live on the apex front end for close to a year now.
Our current method of releasing apex objects is at the application level (ie applications are exported for version control in PVCS and then released to Test etc). We now want to investigate exporting pages and shared components individually. Hence, I have a few questions:
1. If I export a page and this is checked into PVCS and I forget to export a 'List of Values' shared component. What happens when the page in PVCS is created in another environment (ie Test). I guess the ‘Page Import’ would still succeed but the reference to the ‘List of Values’ would be some large made up number.
How would we detect the missing dependency after import ?
2. Regarding New or Changed Templates. Once again, if a page references a new template and is then exported, checked into PVCS and imported into test but the template is missed for migration to test, would the import succeed but the template reference would be broken, like in number 1.
3. How can Application level objects be locked (reserved) when undergoing modification.
Any comments would be appreciated especially if there are any sites using pages and shared component exports for version control and releases.
For anyone who's interested, the method we are thinking of using is:
..Page Export script will be version controlled
..ALL the shared component export scripts will be added to 1 main SQL script
Hence we only end up with 2 configurable objects in PVCS.

Nigel,
1. If I export a page and this is checked into PVCS and I forget to export a 'List of Values' shared component. What happens when the page in PVCS is created in another environment (ie Test). I guess the ‘Page Import’ would still succeed but the reference to the ‘List of Values’ would be some large made up number.
For component export/import, the source and target worskpace ID and application ID must be identical. You can achieve the workspace "sameness" by exporting and importing the workspace from one database to another, thus preserving the workspace's numeric ID, aka security group ID. Similarly applications must be exported/imported/installed without changing their IDs in the installed-into instance. More fundamentally, the application you import/install components into must be an identical copy of the source application with respect to the internal object IDs, allowing only for differences that incent you to migrate changes from a higher rev level of the application into a copy that is at a lower rev level.
As to the specific question, if you copied a page but didn't copy an LOV into the target application then if the LOV referenced by the page already existed in the target application then page would simply reference the existing, perhaps down-level, LOV in the application. If the LOV did not already exist but had been newly created in the source application, then the target application page would contain an invalid reference and would produce a runtime error.
How would we detect the missing dependency after import ?
I don't know of any reports that would tell you this. There are several types of omissions that you need to watch out for, not all of which can be detected by inspection of the target application in isolation.
2. Regarding New or Changed Templates. Once again, if a page references a new template and is then exported, checked into PVCS and imported into test but the template is missed for migration to test, would the import succeed but the template reference would be broken, like in number 1.
Yes, same case.
3. How can Application level objects be locked (reserved) when undergoing modification.
There is no provision for this as there is for pages.
For anyone who's interested, the method we are thinking of using is:
..Page Export script will be version controlled
..ALL the shared component export scripts will be added to 1 main SQL script
Hence we only end up with 2 configurable objects in PVCS.
So you propose to have one script of all pages and another script for everything else? I'm not sure I got that right.

Images uploaded in Shared Components not displaying

We recently installed version 4.2.1 on a new dedicated server. The entire setup went through without error.
The default images found in apex (/i/apex/builder/ etc.) are all visible. But when we upload any image through Shared Components > Images do not show on screen. An entry is available in the report on the Images page but the image itself is blank. The URL of the image is shown as : "+http://hostname:port/apex/wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file?p_security_group_id=100000&p_flow_id=100&p_fname=Sampleimage.jpg+". The image is available in the wwv_flow_file_objects$ table and can be viewed through the BLOB_CONTENT column. But it is not visible in the front end.
Is there a solution to this issue?
Thanks,
Aniket

If not then consider using the #APP_IMAGES# substitution istring nstead of #WORKSPACE_IMAGES#

Problems publishing shared review comments in Acrobat 8.0

I created a shared review in Acrobat 8.0 and posted it to a Sharepoint workspace. A reviewer published comments but I was not able to see them. He double-checked, and he was able to see his comments but I was still unable to see them. He checked again, and was not able to see his comments.
I can see comments the reviewer published on a different date, but the reviewer is no longer able to see those comments either. Has anyone had a similar experience?

I'm having a similar problem and didn't see a solution posted.
I'm using Acrobat 8 Professional to do shared document reviews. I created a sharepoint shared documents folder which the shared document review process verified and accepted as a destination.
I used the Review and Comment process to save the pdf document to the folder (enabling those using Reader to review and comment) and send an email inviting specific individuals to review and comment.
The problem is when they open the document (using the URL in the email) they don't see the "toolbar" that lets them Publish Comments to Server. They all have Reader 9.
Until I figure out what the problem is, I'm using a brute force technique to force publishing comments, instructing them to close the browser and then Publish Comments using the dialog box that appears after the browser has closed.
Any suggestions how to get the toolbar that lets them look for published comments and publish their comments to display ?

Non-application specific static files not visible in shared components

Hello,
We recently upgraded to APEX 4.0.2.00.07. In the past we have uploaded a number of static files with no specific application linked to them.
Now, when I search on these files using Shared Components -> Static Files, I don't find them back.
But, if I directly query the view APEX_WORKSPACE_FILES (using the APEX schema owner), I see all the files. They have APPLICATION_ID = 0 and APPLICATION_NAME is empty.
Is this a bug? I couldn't reproduce this with newly added static files, whether I specify an application or not.

Owen:
Excellent idea/perspective...I did not think of that. Each of our forms/screens has a seperate class file. Each class file has a CreateForm() routine that is called when an instance of the class is intiated behind the menu selection.
Here is a block of code In Main.vb I use to execute a menu selection:
Case "MPA"
'8/30/07 EJD - Work Order Parameters Screen
   If GetFormCount(G_MPAMaint_Form_Type).ToString = "0" Then
           Dim MPAForm As New MPA
           BubbleEvent = False
    Else
           UpdateStatus("Another MPA maintenance screen is already open", SAPbouiCOM.BoStatusBarMessageType.smt_Error)
           BubbleEvent = False
    End If
So, I can utilize this code in the case statement where I was doing the ActivateMenu if I hear you right. Now, can you help me with how I would pass the
variables instead of making them Public Shared in the Main class? Or is it ok to expose them that way?
I Appreciate the help,
Ed

Accessing images from shared components

I am having problem finding out images from shared components. After loading my images from my desktop to shared components folder, when i try to create an image item, and click the browse button, it pulls out my hard drive for selection. i don't know how to get the images already in shared components. i read in the help file that if i know the name of the image, then i can write it down and portal will pull it out. but what if i don't remember. do i have to go to shared components to find what it is and then come back and write it in the textbox?how to get to shared components clicking browse and selecting the image we want which is already stored in portal?
thanks
valli

There's no way to browse and select the images in shared components. You need to know the URL to the image if you want to reference it in an item.

Installation of CS3 web premium failed to install shared components

Hi all ,
why is this installation so terrible even after two years of this product release!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! , I think adobe does'nt care to hear customers problems????
here is my scenario :
user rights : user with admin privileges .
few weeks back i had some issue with the operating system due to some office suite installation hence i had to format my pc . After formatting i tried to install my software's back , when i tried to install CS3 web premium it showed the following error
shared components failed to install
adobe cs failed to install
when i tried to open any of the successfully installed programs it said license stopped working
i tried all possible steps mentioned in various blogs and forums , here is a list of steps i tried
uninstalled the suite .
Installed windows clean up utility.
Downloaded the CS3 clean up script ran the same in all levels including the hidden levels 3 , 4..
Downloaded and ran the flash uninstaller.
disabled all services in the msconfig tab.
disabled all start up programs in the msconfig tab.
restarted the machine .
installed the suite again .
BINGGGGGGG same error shared components failed to install *********** .
*I also tried some postings regarding starting flexnet services in the services utility
What is the issue i have been struggling with this for past one week and its driving me mad....any help would be greatly appreciated .
~ Sam

In case anyone is still interested in this thread. I called Adobe tech support and they were able to help me finally get CS3 installed. The steps I took were kind of messed up because I'd try something and it still wouldn't work and then I'd try something else. But I think the following was the magic combination that finally worked. I don't know if this would help anyone else but it worked for me...
I uninstalled all the previously installed CS3 components. In fact, I uninstalled everything that started with the word "Adobe" on my computer, even Flash Player, just for good measure.
Then I ran the Adobe cleanup script at level 2
I downloaded the script from here...
http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs3clean.html
I went into the "computer" window and set it up to show hidden folders. Click Organize->Folder and Search Options->View. Then click "Show Hidden Files and Folders"
Then I went into C:\ProgramFiles\CommonFiles\Adobe and moved all the files in there to a folder on my desktop so there was nothing left in the Adobe folder (I don't think it wouldn't let me move some of the Acrobat files so the tech support guy said to just leave them)
I did the same thing for C:\ProgramFiles\Adobe and moved all those files to a folder on my desktop
Then I deleted all the files from C:\Users\MyUserName\AppData\Roadming\Adobe
I think I ran the cleanup script one more time just for the heck of it.
Next I went to the start menu and on the "Start Search" line I typed "msconfig." When the system configuration window came up, I went to the "services" tab and checked "Hide All Microsoft Services" Then I checked "Disable All" So that disabled everything that wasn't a MicroSoft service. Then I went to the "Startup" tab and checked "Disable All" and restarted the computer.
Then I went ahead and installed everything fresh off the CS3 DVD and it worked the first time. No more 1310 errors with the Config.Msi directory.
Hope this helps someone else.
Good luck!

Translate report layouts (Shared Components)

Hi,
I create in my application PDF using shared components (Report Queries and Report Layouts) and the BI Publisher. The queries I have deposited in Report Qieries and templates in report layouts. The call is done via the URL (which appears in the report query). Now I have translated my application and see that the titles of my templates are not visible with the xlife file. How can I translate the report layout from the Shared Components.
Thank you in advance for your support.

In toad#9.2 version we have option as Database->Monitor>Session Browser [where we can see which query is running under specfic session]
To establish exactly where time is being spent, use Debug mode to identify APEX or database issues, and timeline/profiling developer tools in the browser to check for network or JavaScript problems.
What web server are you using? If you're using EPG check the SHARED_SERVERS configuration.

Hello,
The images in Shared Components -> Images are ones you have uploaded specifically for your application (or workspace). They are unrelated (strictly speaking) to the images in the /i/ folder (which are either stored on the filesystem if you use the OHS or stored in the DB if you use the EPG etc).
Hope this helps,
John.

Shared Components Subscription

Hi,
I have a master application that uses a custom authentication scheme.
My other applications are using the subscription option, referencing my master application authentication scheme.
I'm using subscription for other shared components as well.
Is there a list of subscriptions for an application?
I know that if I check the master authentication scheme (or any other shared components) that there is a list of of the subscribed elements.
That's not really what I'm looking for.
I would like to have something like
Application 100 is using the following subscription :
-Authentication scheme: reference application 1
-Navigation Bar Entries: reference application 1Thanks
Max

Hi Max,
i don't know of any report showing all the subscriptions you are looking for, but you can easily write one yourself. APEX provides all the informations you need in various dictionary Views.
You can see those Views in Application Builder -> Utilites -> APEX Views . For best overview switch to the tree-view there.

Tree under Shared Components

Can anybody show me step by step procedures how to create a Tree?
I have root as :- Manual
Second level(under Manual when user clicks on toggle sign '+') as :- Instruction, Launch, Package,etc many more
Third Level(under Instruction when user click on toggle sign '+')as:- InstA, InstB, etc
Third Level(under Launch when user click on toggle sign '+')as:- LanuchA, LaunchB, etc
Third Level(under Package when user click on toggle sign '+')as:- PackA, PackB, etc
how to implment it??
Deep

I am trying to build a tree as a navigation aid. There is no 'tree' selection in APEX under Shared Components > Navigation.
Explained here.

So, I can not find any documentation on building a navigation tree in APEX 4.0
Can someone tell me how to do this or where to look on the internet?

Chapter 8, Oracle® Application Express Application Builder User's Guide Release 4.0 ?
The change to this jsTree component has not been altogether universally welcomed. A number of people have experienced difficulties with the transition from the previous implementation, or with their expectations of the features offered by the new one. Suggest you search the forum for more info. Won't comment myself as I've made no use of the "new" tree and only minimal use of the previous one.

Super Duper Damages Shared Components

After losing a hard drive on my 1.67 gh Pbook w 2 gigs ram, running 10.4.11 I'm using Super Duper to back-up the drive. I've created a bootable back-up on a FW800 external drive. Everytime I use Super Duper to back-up the drive, it damages Photoshop CS3 which won't launch. I have to re-install and it tells me it's currently repairing shared components. No other apps have problems after a backup, and I don't have any Pshop problem until I backup. I tried using Carbon Copy Cloner and got the same results, so it doesn't appear to be the backup app. The thing that's most confusing to me is why Pshop would be messed up on the laptop's HD, which was being duped?
Any ideas?

I've been using Superduper to clone my main drive to do testing and have had absolutely no problems with SD at all. And I've been doing this all summer. so its not the software.

Query to list out shared components and page number that used them

Hi all,
I created report queries and report layouts under apex shared components for BIP printing purpose. To match them correctly, I always make sure query and layout files have the same name.
But as the nubmer grew, I like to know if there is a systematic way to query out the queries and associated layout files plus the page number that have print buttons point to these shared components. Can you help ?
Thanks
Munshar

Hi Munshar,
you can use APEX Views to query this information.
To get an overview on what Views are available go to Application Builder and choose "APEX Views" from the right sidebar.
