Table Journaling need the user to be LDAP

Question

Has anyone cahnged the code in TAPI to provide the LDAP user instead of the tnsnames user?
If so can you let me know how you did that ?
thanks

Answer 1

1) Create a database pakage where you will store/retreive the SSO username like this:
create or replace PACKAGE "PKG_SSO" IS
FUNCTION GET_USER_SSO
RETURN VARCHAR2;
PRAGMA RESTRICT_REFERENCES (GET_USAGER_SSO, WNDS, WNPS, RNPS);
PROCEDURE SET_USER_SSO
(P_USAGER_SSO IN VARCHAR2
END PKG_SSO;
create or replace PACKAGE BODY "PKG_SSO" IS
FUNCTION GET_USER_SSO
RETURN VARCHAR2
IS
V_USER_SSO VARCHAR2(100);
BEGIN
SELECT NVL(SYS_CONTEXT('USERENV','CLIENT_IDENTIFIER'),USER)
INTO V_USER_SSO
FROM DUAL;
RETURN V_USER_SSO;
END;
PROCEDURE SET_USER_SSO
(P_USER_SSO IN VARCHAR2
IS
BEGIN
DBMS_SESSION.SET_IDENTIFIER(NVL(P_USER_SSO,USER));
END;
END;
END PKG_SSO;
2) In Designer create two triggers logic "Pre-Insert" and "Pre-Update" for each tables:
-- Application_logic Pre-Insert <<Start>>
BEGIN
CG$REC.CREATION_DATE := SYSDATE;
CG$REC.CREATED_BY := PKG_SSO.GET_USER;
CG$REC.MODIFICATION_DATE := SYSDATE;
CG$REC.MODIFIED_BY := PKG_SSO.GET_USER;
END;
-- Application_logic Pre-Update <<Start>>
BEGIN
CG$REC.MODIFICATION_DATE := SYSDATE;
CG$REC.MODIFIED_BY := PKG_SSO.GET_USER;
END;
3) In your Forms create a WHEN-WHEN-FORM-INSTANCE and call
PKG_SSO.SET_USAGER_SSO(get_application_property(sso_userid));
The Form built-in will return the SSO userid OID (LDAP) if available then the we will store it context of the package PKG_SSO.
The TAPI will pickup the value of the context and set your audit values, if there is no value then PKG_SSO will return the Oracle username this case.
That's about it.
