Strengths and weaknesses of Oracle developer/2000

I wanted to know what the drawbacks and limitations of dev/2000(forms and reports) are. Would appreciate a discussion from various experienced developers on the limitations they faced and even the solutions they have provided/been provided.

If you're planning on developing a system with good user interface design I wouldn't recommend using Forms 2000.
We tried to do a design which mimics the Start menu of Windows on Forms 6 and my fellow programmer in charge of user interface had a hard time even with Oracle Technical Support.
I'm just not sure if later releases of Forms 2000 can address such issues (moving windows, hiding of the title bar, following of the mouse, etc.).

How to get Oracle Developer 2000 for Windows

Hi all,
I have some fmx and rep developed by "Oracle Developer 2000 for Windows" product. I can not run this fmx because of I dont have "Oracle Developer 2000 for Windows" product. I look up download.oracle.com to download but I dont find this product. How can I download or How can I run these fmx and reps?

Then you're pretty much out of luck. Your only option then is to ask Oracle Support, if they have a copy of "Developer 2000" (Forms 5.0), as you will need the Forms runtime for this version - but chances are pretty small. I just wonder, how you only can have the compiled files and not the source files... and there's no way to decompile an FMX back to an FMB. You can't get the source files somehow?
You know, that you're asking for something, which is very very old... it's like asking for a copy of Windows 95... on floppy disks....
It's more than 10 years ago, my company upgraded from Forms 5, and I don't think we have a copy of the installation media any longer. If Oracle Support can't provide you with a set of installation media, you might be lucky, that some user on this forum has a copy of it and will send it to you - but the chances of that is also pretty small, I'd say.... and in any case it will be completely unsupported, you're all on your own.
If I were you, I'd consider getting the application in question completely rewritten instead of trying to use those old FMX's for anything.
Hope this helps,
Jacob

Concept behind, strengths and weaknesses of NetWeaver?

Hi,
what is the concept behind NetWeaver?
What kind of strengths and weaknesses did NetWeaver have?
And which position did NetWeaver have in the context of ESOA?
Dokuments are also from interesting!
THX
Chris

Hi,
You're not asking for facts but for opinions.
I think you have to make your own opinions....
And everybody will have different ones.
From <b>my personnal point of view, </b>
The strength of Netweaver is the 15 years experience of robustness and reliability which began in 1992 with SAP R/3.
The weakness of Netweaver is the dual stack concept ( abap and java in the same product) which pretends that the Netweaver Application server exists, also there is an ABAP application server and a JAVA application server which are (in my opinion) badly glued together.

Olivier

What are strengths and weaknesses of the sap.m.Shell and sap.m.App as container for an application wrapper?

My question today: What are strengths and weaknesses of the
sap.m.Shell
and
sap.m.App
as container for an application wrapper?
I currently use non of them, but I see the advantages.
SAP best practise is to use one of them or nest them as shell > app. What are strengths and weaknesses of the approaches?

We prefer to say, the tender mercies of the Fetch block.
You'll notice the "wfm info" cluster as an output of the Fetch
VI. This cluster has gain and offset members- use these to scale
your binary data to floating point voltage representation.
As you point out, the numbers won't be exactly what you expect given
the vertical range and the device resolution. There are a few
reasons for this. First, we don't use the absolute full scale of
the ADC for the maximum input voltage. There are a couple of
codes of headroom at the top and bottom. This allows your input
signal to slightly exceed the specified vertical range without clipping
(you'll get a warning from the driver). Second, these gain and
offset numbers take into account calibration information for your
device. Using these numbers will correct for small deviations
from the ideal offset and gain.
So if you use the gain and offset numbers from the driver, your
measurements will be more accurate than if you assume 0 offset and
perfect gain. They will be most accurate if you make sure to
perform a self-calibration once the device is in your system and at the
temperature that your tests will be run.

Considering FileVault usage on an iMac with OSX 10.6.7. Wanting to know more about strengths and weaknesses of Filevault with Time Machine, Parallels and Carbon Copy Cloner. Any negatives to consider before flipping the switch?

I'm considering FileVault usage on an iMac with OSX 10.6.7. Wanting to know more about strengths and weaknesses of Filevault with Time Machine, Parallels and Carbon Copy Cloner. Any negatives to consider before flipping the switch? Any information ?
Would specifically like to know:
Filevault impact on performance and application usability.
TIme machine impacts, and whether TIme Machine volume will also be secure?
Will a Cloned copy made with CCC be bootable, or usable?
Any other negatives to consider before turning this thing on?
Thanks,

Filevault impact on performance and application usability.
FileVault encrypts the user's home directory only - it is basically an encrypted disk image that is automatically opened when you log in and closed when you log out. It does cause disk accesses to be a bit slower so it isn't a good idea to use an encrypted account with sound or video or large graphics files. I have no experience with it with Parallels Desktop but suspect that you'd notice a bit of a slowdown. Note: in the User's directory you'll see a Shared Folder. Since FV only encrypts the user's directory you can put data you don't need encrypted in this shared folder which won't be encrypted.
TIme machine impacts, and whether TIme Machine volume will also be secure?
There are issues with TM and FV but how extensive they are with Snow Leopard I can't say, once I realized that TM and FV hadn't substantially changed between 10.5 and 10.6 I stopped dealing with it. When FV and TM were first introduced my testing led me to recommend using CCC or SuperDuper! for backing up.
Will a Cloned copy made with CCC be bootable, or usable?
Yes
Any other negatives to consider before turning this thing on?
Since FV is nothing more than a disk image - and disk images can fail - there are several problems with FV in my opinion. If an encrypted disk image fails it isn't possible to access any of that data. If you don't have a recent (undamaged) backup of the disk image and/or recent backup of the data within the disk image you are in a world of hurt. This isn't just a warning of possibility - this is a real danger that I've seen all too often at the shop where I have worked part time for a number of years.
At this time I strongly recommend that people who have sensitive data keep that sensitive data segregated from their general data and encrypt only the sensitive data or use other methods of locking it down such as saving on an external drive that is kept in a safe. Call me paranoid but I don't even keep all my sensitive data in one encrypted disk image. I use multiple disk images and keep multiple sequential backups. That way I might someday find that my up-to-date investments disk image won't mount but (a) I can go back a week to a backup and (b) that won't impact my up-to-date business records because those are in a different disk image

Calling ActiveX Control in Oracle Developer 2000 - Forms 5

Hi All,
I am looking for sample code to call an ActiveX control from my application.
I have a data input form once i submit the data, the ActiveX control is called and the data is transmitted to a 3rd party application. Could you kindly provide me some pointer here please.
Thanks

You're using a very old version of forms and also of SQL*Net.
to be sure that the problem is forms/sql*net related and not due to other reasons (e.g. network), you could install the current version (forms 10g) and just see if the connect is any faster. If it is, you could try to run Forms 5 with a newer version of the oracle-client /Sql*net to see if that works better.
hope this helps.

Oracle Developer 2000 Reports Problem

Report is developed in D2K Reports 6i
There is paragraph as follows
< variable text 1><Telephone No><variable text 2>
eg this is sentence one contact 123 22 22 22 this is sentence two.
Because of variation of length of < variable text 1> at runtime, report displays this paragraph as follows -
this is sentence one this is sentence one this is contact 123 22 22 22 this is sentence two.
Please note that the telephone number is displayed partly on line 1 and partly on line 2. This is not acceptable.
Please suggest a solution to display the entire telephone no in one line and also justify the first line so that the entire text appears to be in same paragraph ie it is continuous, there are no unnecesseary spaces
ie the expected text is
this is sentence one this is sentence one this is contact
123 22 22 22 this is sentence two.

Is Developer 2000 release 2.1 works under Oracle 9.2.05.

Is Developer 2000 release 2.1 works under Oracle 9.2.0.5.
If anyone can answer this will be real help.
Thanks in advance.

It may be available through Oracle Support depending on the platform you need. You will need a valid Support Contract and access to MyOracleSupport (http://support.oracle.com)
Here is the info for Windows.
Oracle Developer Server Release 2.1 for Microsoft Windows NT
Part number: A63484-01
Oracle Developer/2000 Release 2.1 for Windows NT and Windows 95
Part number: A63486-01
The following should be considered before attempt to request or use the above:
1. This product was desupported long ago and is not entitled to any Technical or Development support.
2. This product version was not Y2K compliant. As a result it likely will not install correctly as the installer is sensitive to the date.
3. This product was never intended to work correctly on the current operating systems. So, even if you are able to get it installed, it likely will not work correctly.

Urgent: Some Problem on using Oracle Developer and Oracle 8i

I have download the Oracle Developer from this website.
I follow the instruction and install the Oracle Developer.
After I finished install the Developer, a error message shows:
"user1.pin(20):OS_ERROR whilw spawing if srv60-install Forms60Server -OraHome81d2 port:900mode:Socket batch:yes."
When I login in the SQL Plus 8i using User name: sys
A error message shows "ORA:122-03: Unable to connect to destination"
I can't use the Scheme Builder also and when I open the Net8 Assistant, I can't close the program in a normal way:
Click X on the corner/ Click File->Exit.
Would you help me to solve this problem? Thanks!

The problem that u are unable to login into sql prompt is may be that, you havent install the database or if u have installed it u havent started it.
If u are using windows nt,2000,xp then u can start it from services which is under administrative tools or if u are using 95 or 98 then u have to start the database from the program menu.
The problem that developer net8 assistant doesnt exit is a reality and i also face this problem, I think it is a bug of oracle, and if i started it, i have to endtask it.
Bye
Hasan
