Transitioning from Designer/Headstart to JDeveloper/JHeadstart

My company is considering transitioning from Designer/Headstart to JDeveloper/JHeadstart. I have a question on hardware/software requirements.
We currently have two MS Windows Server 2003 running our Oracle Application Servers.
Will we be able to use these servers for our OAS? Or will we need something else? I was planning to upgrade the OAS to the latest version as part of the upgrade. I'll also be making sure that the servers at least have the recommended hardware requirements for that version before the upgrade.
Thanks.

Hi,
Questions regarding server requirements for JHeadstart are basically questions regarding server requirements for JDeveloper/ADF (since JHeadstart is at runtime 'just' one library on top of ADF).
For alternative ways to find an answer to your question, please take a look at [this post|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=1072]

The 'Designer' and 'Designer Headstart' forums

There have recently been some changes that some of you will have
noticed to the name of this forum; it changed from 'Designer
Headstart' to 'Designer'.
A new forum has been created for 'Designer Headstart'.
I agree that it may have been simpler just to create
a 'Designer' forum, but there were technical reasons why it was
done this way, so could we ask that all future Headstart posts
(and those concerning the other Accelerators including ODWA,
CDM, CDM RuleFrame) be posted to the Designer Headstart forum
rather than the Designer forum.
In this way, the Accelerators and Designer Product Management
teams can monitor their own respectives forums.
Thanks, and apologies for any inconvenience.

Yes, this is a known issue. We will fix this for the next release.
Having said that, the next release will contain the JHeadstart Forms2ADF generator which directly reads Oracle Forms .fmb files to ADF, without the need to use Oracle Designer, avoiding problems like this alltogether.

Tools for converting from Designer 1.x to 6?

I am about to work for a client that would like to convert their data model from Oracle Designer version 1.3 to version 6. They, of course, have both logical and physical models defined in the tool. They do not use Designer to create triggers or stored procedures, but they do store business rules in the repository (I'm not sure where. . .). The business rules serve as documentation for business analysts.
Is Oracle Designer upwardly compatible from version 1? That is, will I be able to open the version 1 model with version 6 software? If not, are there tools that I might use to perform the transition?
Thanks for the help,
Tom

Tom,
For a technical migration from designer 1 to designer 6.0, there is extensive documentation in the 6.0 product how to do this. Your repostitory information will be available in designer 6 once you upgraded. If you used Headstart for designer 1.3.2, take a look at the Headstart migration issues for migration your template package (info can be found on OTN,(http://technet.oracle.com/products/headstart/)
. If you want to migrate your business logic, you might want to take a look at the CDM RuleFrame option (whitepapers available on the website), a powerfull way to model and implement business logic in the server (with transaction level validation, no more mutating table problems etc.)

Generate BC4J components from Designer

Oracle Designer 9.0.2.80.1 vers: 4.0.12
Oracle SCM RON: 9.0.2.80.1 vers: 4.0.12
Oracle Jdeveloper 9.0.4.0 (Build 1419)
I try to generate BC4J components from Designer definitions from SCM.
In Designer:
I make workarea (WA27) as rep_owner
and child application (AP27) below WA.
I create one table (TABLE1) and one (Java) module to that simple table (TABLE1).
I check in and out application table and module.
In JDeveloper:
I make connection to SCM Database as user rep_owner
Test succeed and I see below Connection1Functions tables , procedures .. of the repository.
I do not see among tables just created table (TABLE1).
I make workarea an project below that WA.
Then I right-click on new project and choose Business Tier/Designer Generation +
Designer BC4J and click OK
Designer BC4J Generator Wizard starts
Wiard continues and I choose to workarea: WA27 and next
In next phase wizard shows only workarea WA27 not application below that.
I designer too old or do I need changes to definitions of the repository.

Language of the module have to be Oracle Forms (not JAVA).
After change wizard will find that container (= application) AP27 and modude(s) below that. OK!!!!
Fine !

Generate SQL scripts from Designer 6

Hi all,
Does anyone know how to generate an SQL-script from Designer? I want to maintain the code in the repository, and also document usages against the script. I've found ways to document the script, but then I can't generate it....
Thanks in advance,
Ronald

Ronald,
How did you record the SQL script in designer? As undefined pl/sql module (type= "null")?
If so, you cannot generate the script with the ddl generator. To do so you could change the type to procedure and make post-generation changes to the script (cut of f the procedure header and trailer lines). An other way to generate it is to write your own SQL script generator as a headstart utility. You might take a look at the html help file generator utility which does a similar job (create a o/s file based on the repository contents).
Let us know if you succeed.

Tools for easy transition from C-S to CMP-EJB

I am helping some product in the transition from Client server to Enterprize Java Bean technology. We have done research and come to the conclusion to design the Business objects as CMP beans.
Now we are in the stage of doing a small prototype. Well we don't want to spend time in converting the Business objects in to CMP beans manually. So my question is:-
ARE THERE ANY TOOLS AVAILABLE IN THE MARKET THAT WILL ACCEPT A BUSINESS OBJECT (IN ANY METADATA FORMAT) AND GENERATE THE ENTITY BEAN AND THE CORRESPONDING XML DEPLOYMENT DESCRIPTOR?
I can see many applications might have this sort of requirement for this transition?
Please reply if you know any such tools.
Thanks in advance,
Sangita

We wrote our own. It takes a ddl and an xml file.
I understand that IBM also makes such a tool, though I believe that it is not database design driven. I believe it actually generates ddl.

Dreamweaver CC transition from CS4

I was really adept at using CS4 and have upgraded to Dreamweaver CC. I live in a remote location with below 1mb of speed (yes that's right) and cannot get anything downloaded to help me. Is there a book I can buy or a Forum I can join to help my transition from CS4 to CC? I am fine with CSS but where are my beloved AP Divs?

APDiv functionality was removed from the program with good reason (actually for many good reasons). You can still create absolutely positioned elements, but you need to do it through the CSS directly...
1. Go to Insert > Div
2. Give the div an ID in the dialogue box that comes up
3. Hit the New CSS Rule button
4. Choose where you want the rule to appear (usually in an external style sheet) and hit OK
5. Click Positioning and set position to absolute
6. Hit OK twice
From there on out, the element you inserted will act like the defunct APDiv in Design View and allow you to drag and resize like the old days.
A word of caution though, APDivs are gone for a reason, they cause more problems than they solve, especially in responsive designs meant to go from desktops to tablets to phones. Except in the rare cases where absolute positioning is necessary, you can always use infinitely more flexible css floats, margins and padding to position your elements.

Where is the Designer Headstart forum?

Hi Headstart-team, where is your Designer forum?

Is it possible to print from design view in CS3

I've got a summary print out / display page for a CF application that I'd like to be able to print out in Design view.
DW CS3 only seems to print the code page and I don't want to print from a browser as that will only show the options currently selected - I'm after having all options displayed.
Is it possible? Any suggestions other than printScreen?

No, you can't print from Design view. It seems as though screen capture is your best option,

I have .me and .mac email accounts on my iPhone 4. I thought I had successfully transitioned from MobileMe to iCloud, but something must be wrong. iCloud seems to work fine on my computer and, with the exception of two email accounts, seems to be fine on my phone. Can/should I delete the accounts on my phone and start over? It is somewhat of a nuisance to have two email accounts and double the amount of emails. The only thing different about the two iCloud accounts is the email addresses. Thanks.

Well, seems I managed to unscrew this...I deleted my iCloud mail account and reinstalled it on my phone. That got rid of the duplicate .me/.mac email accounts.

Is there a way to extract the transitions from the trailers in iMovie '11 to use in my own movie?

I want to create an iMovie, and I'd like to use bits and pieces from the different movie trailers templates. Is there a way for me to extract just the transitions from these trailers.
I don't want to use the trailers themselves as they are now because the options are too limited in respect to how I can create the movie. For example, there are times where I only want two words on the screen, but I am forced to use three instead. Also, I would like to delete such things as "cast" and "credits," but it doesn't seems like I can do that either.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Cheers.

No there is not.
You could create a trailer, share it and then re-import and cut out just the pieces you want, but I don't think that's what you're looking for.

(1) Run following query to verify if there exist entries for administrators for USR form in UDFD form level and provide results to support representative:
select fug.sdk_key, fug.fug_write,fug.fug_delete, ugp.ugp_key, ugp.ugp_name, fug_rowver from ugp ugp, fug fug where ugp.ugp_key=fug.ugp_key and fug.sdk_key= (select sdk_key from sdk where sdk_name='USR');

Import from Designer crashes with IMAGE data type

Hello,
I'd like to report an issue with Data Modeler while importing from Oracle Designer. If you consider this a bug, please let me know if I need to do anything else to request a fix for it.
I've used the import > Oracle Designer Model tool to import an application model. The import runs fine for a while, then crashes with a message "There are errors in import - check log file".
The application to be imported has 509 domains, 963 entities to import.
The summary info displayed after the import (when I close the error message pop up) is:
All statements: 1472
Imported statements: 538
Failed statements: 0
Not recognized statements: 934
The log file has the lines below:

I see the issue with the IMAGE data type in the log. The model to be imported does have domains and entities using this data type. The domain actually did get imported, but it shows as "Unknown" logical type, even though there is an Image type available in the Data Modeler type list. None of the entities using IMAGE got imported.
Please let me know if you can provide a fix or workaround for this (other than changing the format in Designer).
Thank you,
Beatriz.

Hello Beatriz,
definitely this is a bug. The problem with entities is not IMAGE data type it's supported there (it's overlooked for domains). The problem is volume information - Initial, Maximum, Average, Growth rate. No workaround for that.
Domain can be changed manually if it's just one affected.
