Using a VB-6 app to connect to BOE-XI (R2) - SDK?

I'm pretty sure the answer is NO, but I wanted to post it here for confirmation.
We have a large legacy VB-6 application that uses RAS-9 for reporting.
The version 9 tools are no longer supported by Crystal/BOBJ - and we have an existing BOE-XI (R2) Premium infrastructure that is used by all our newer .NET applications.
Is there a supported method of updating our large legacy VB-6 application to use the BOE-XI (R2) Premium infrastructure for reporting instead of RAS-9 that does not include redeveloping the VB-6 application into .Net...?
Thanks in advance for the advice!

Although it is depricate there is a RAS COM SDK that comes with XI R2.
So essentially you could use the same code except for the part about where you get the report. In your old code you would open the report from file system.
In the new BOE system you would query the CMS for the report. After that the RAS code would pretty much stay the same.
http://developerlibrary.businessobjects.com for more info on the COM BOE SDK. You will also notice the COM RAS SDK.

  • Problem in creating AppsDataSource for EBS using fnd user with APPS Schema connect role

    Hi,
    I have done all the setup on EBS R12.1.3 like apply patch for additional profile options, set required profile options, generated DBC file for external node and some entry in FND_NODES table. I have rebuilt the fndext.jar file on external server, and placed it at required path. after doing all these we created fnd user with UMX/APPS_SCHEMA_CONNECT role but I'm not able to create DataSource every time I'm getiing invalid username/password error, properties my connection are below:

    I'm trying to create EBS DataSource to integrate ADF application with EBS, for this I have followed steps mentioned in Document 974949.1 but still I'm not able to move forward.
    Why? What is the issue?
    For this Do I need to install Oracle E-Business Suite AccessGate. But this is not mentioned in Metalink Doc. This I'm trying on Weblogic server on Windows.
    AccessGate requires extra steps for EBS integration as mentioned in (Integrating Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 with Oracle Access Manager 11gR1 PS2 (11.1.1.7.0) using Oracle E-Business Suite AccessGate (Doc ID 1543803.1)) which I believe is not required here.

  • Bug: iOS 5 using data in email app when connected to wifi. Has anyone else had this problem?

    Since I have received my new iPhone 4s I have constantly been going over my data every month. I only get 200mb. Normally I only used 20-50 tops if I used heavily with out wifi. After trying different application, and resetting the usage meter under settings. I noticed that when connected to wifi it uses data when checking for email, pushing and sending and recieving email. I've reset restored etc. nothing fixes it.

    WiFi *should* take precedence in my opinion, however it does not.  This was just confirmed to me by a supervisor at the VWZ call center.  i received a notice that i was going to be charged an overage fee due to going over the data plan i have on the iPad2.  However, this particular iPad has not been out of my house, nor away from my WiFi network all month.  When i called verizon, they confirmed that even though the ipad is connected to my wifi network, as long as 'Cellular Data' toggle is set to on, it will use that network first.
    No need for this to be the case, other than for Verizon to be able to make incremental revenue on their data plan!

  • Can Bex be used as a standalone app and connect through ODBC ?

    Hi Guru's
    We have a scenario in which we want to connect a Netezza server to our Netweaver2004s BW server and transfer the date from BW to Netezza .We want the queries to be processed by the Netezza server and view reports by placing Bex on top of Netezza server . My question is can we connect Bex to Netezza server by using ODBC and not the odbc of the excel ..or is the connection needs to be made through the ODBC of excel and Bex will work fine as it is embedded in excel itself . Any pointers in this regard will be of great help .
    Thanks in advance

  • Cannot use MAFLogon(iOS native apps) to connect to SMP 3.0 SP05 Server

    Hi experts,
    I have a problem when i try to use MAFLogon to logon/register on my SMP server ( im using iOS native Application). I fill some values, and waiting for login, but it doesnot work.
    This is my config at MAFLogon UI Screen.
    This is my application on SMP Server
    This is my .plist config on MAFLogonManagerNG

    1.
    When i run https://<ip_server>:443 in the Safari browser of iOS simulator, i cannot connect because of credential
    >> you may have to import the certificate, i believe. Have a look at this.http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-50247
    2.
    As you say, i'm using Integration GW, when i try to ping the backend without "Internal" check, it works. When i check "Internal" and ping again, it still works.
    >> Ideally, that option should be checked if endpoint URL is from IGW.
    Should i replace https port 443 = 8083 ? Because the backend use https:<ip>:8083/...
    >> 8083 port is admin port and used for accessing admin cockpit and gateway cockpit (plus all odata services listen on same port iff exposed via IGW) . 8083 is nothing to do with registration.
    I suggest you to try with 8080 first. In that case you have to set secured channel off from login screen.

  • Difference between using app server connection pooling and using the driver

    Hi all,
    How to get connection pooling with out application server and tomcat also?
    What is the difference between using app server connection pooling and using the driver supported connection pooling?
    Regards,

    maybe the performance of App server pool is better than the JDBC pool,
    for you don't know wether the implementation of the JDBC interface is good or bad.

  • I can't connect to my iTunes library on my Macbook Pro using the Apple Remote app on my iPhone 4S. Why?

    Hi all,
    I've been looking through the forums for help with this problem. There are a couple of threads with similar problems, but no solved threads and the discussion doesn't seem to go anywhere... As far as I can tell, it's been causing a lot of annoyance for many users, including myself, but it looks like the community's in the dark about why it's happening!
    I'm trying to connect to my iTunes library using the Apple Remote app on my new iPhone 4S. As you may know, there are two ways to do this:
    Connect via Home Sharing by setting up Home Sharing on both iTunes and the iPhone, or
    Connecting directly to iTunes using a four digit passcode.
    I've tried both methods, and neither work!
    Here's what happens for each method:
    From the Remote app start screen, I tap the "Turn on Home Sharing" button. I enter my Apple ID details (which are definitely correct), and get a confirmation message on my phone saying "Home Sharing is on using [my email address]. To control iTunes: Choose Turn On Home Sharing from the Advanced menu in iTunes on your computer." I then go to iTunes, turn on Home Sharing, enter my Apple ID again and get a confirmation message saying "Home Sharing is now on", etc. However, there's no connection formed between my iPhone and my Macbook Pro - the Remote app just shows a message saying "Turn on Home Sharing in iTunes on your computer or on Apple TV using the account [my email address].
    From the Remote app start screen, I tap "Add an iTunes Library", and the four digit passcode is shown on my phone. I select the new "Quintin's iPhone" item that appears in the iTunes sidebar under "Devices", and enter the passcode on the screen that appears. Once I've entered it, I get a confirmation message saying "Your Remote is now able to control iTunes" with an "Okay" button. Clicking the "Okay" button makes the screen and the sidebar item disappear completely. On my phone, a message that says "Looking for ..." is shown on the screen with a spinning loading wheel, but nothing happens. After a minute or two, it stops and simply says "Could not find".
    After trying both methods, I went through all of the troubleshooting steps here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1741 . Absolutely no effect.
    I should mention that I was experiencing similar problems on my old iPhone 3Gs with an older version of iTunes. I thought it might have been some kind of hardware fault and expected it to clear up once I got the new phone, but the problem is still there. It's a new phone, a new computer, a newer version an iTunes... even a different network I'm trying to connect to it on. Bizarre!
    I've even tried using the Mobile Air Mouse remote application instead. However again, the Mobile Air Mouse app on my phone can't pick up the Mobile Air Mouse server on my Mac.
    I'm kind of at the end of my rope here. Anyone?

    I have the exact same problem trying to use the Remote app on both my iPhone 3gs and iPad 2 with either my Mac or ATV2.  My Remote app used to work on my phone - I can't recall if I ever actually used it with my iPad, but when I tried today, I got all the same results as you did (on both iPad, and then iPhone).  I  was using my ATV2 to play music from iTunes on my Mac and wanted to use the Remote app, but it would not connect to either device no matter what I did. 

  • How to use AirPlay mirroring with Cox TV Connect app for iPad?

    I just bought an Apple TV 3 yesterday because I have been using the Cox TV Connect app for iPad a lot lately because I lost a lot of my favorite channels when I got rid of the higher teir of Cox Cable due of the price, and I can veiw these channels on my iPad now with the Cox TV Connect app. I thought if I bought an Apple TV I could use the AirPlay feature to stream the live TV shows from the iPad app to the TV through Apple TV and unfortuneately the option wasnt there, so I tried to mirror the iPad screen to the Apple TV but I dont have the option in the multitasking bar, anyone know why this is? I have updated the iPad and Apple TV to the software update that was just recently released. Even when im not using the Cox TV app on the iPad I still cant mirror my screen to the Apple TV, but I can do so with the iPhone 4S.

    That document is describing what you say you are already seeing.  It is talking about enabling the air play button in "apps like Videos, Music etc" as you described.  So if you have the AirPlay button showing up in the iOS music and video players is it working as it is supposed to.  So what is it you are not seeing?

    If your phone is offline, the ONLY way to find it is to look for it the old fashioned way.  Your phone CANNOT be located electronically if it's offline.

    Using the iphone S App for optimum.   Precisouly every 1/2 hr the connection to the App shuts off. WHY ???
    Bud

    Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
    Thanks

  • Possibility of using dictionary app to connect to an online dictionary site.

    Hi guys,
    Apple dictionary app can connect to wiki site and shows the result in right style. It's there ways to develop an online dictionary fuctionary to support apple dictionary or just like the present one to the dictionary?

    Apple's Wikipedia integration is custom code just for that purpose. You can download and play with the Dictionary Development Kit that is available in one of the supplementary Xcode downloads. It does not support any online functionality directly.
    In theory, you might be able to create a local index of keywords and load the content via iframes in static XHTML. I haven't tried that but it might be possible.

  • IPhone Mail App cannot connect with gmail iMap server

    So my gmail address list or contacts seems to have been hacked and all my contacts who are still talking to me have told me so.
    So I changed my gmail password.
    No more complaints, and probably no more friends as contacts.
    But seriously, I have been able to get gmail (web) working with my new double authentication password(s). Also, my outlook for MAC is working using the special "generated App Password". (because Outlook cannot do the double authentication thingie)
    Ditto for the gmail app from google on my iPhone. (it works too)
    BUT
    I cannot get the iPhone Mail App to connect to Gmail.
    I have deleted (i thought) my existing gmail setup from my iPhone. When I try to re establish the gmail settings, using either the password generated by the MAC / iCloud keychain generator or the App password, I get the message "My Name" is already added.
    It looks to me that there is something in the iPhone that matches my gmail address, even though I deleted the account.
    Any suggestions before I call Apple for help?
    Thanks
    Barry

    I think so.
    Actually I think I need to get the App Password for Mail on my phone. It generates the app password and I enter it into the password in the gmail setup for mail.
    The problem is that when I hit next on that page, I get the message:
    "my name" is already added" and I cannot proceed.
    Before doing this setup I deleted my gmail account by tapping the email address and hitting delete in the Mail, Contact and Calendars setup..
    but, there is something hiding in my iPhone that remembers my old gmail password (I guess) and doesn't let me proceed.
    If I enter my gmail iChain password I get the same thing.
    If i do this in airplane mode (no connection to google) i also get the same.
    I talked to an apple care person who had me reset all my settings... still the same thing.
    I am trying to avoid a gull reset of the iPhone, but that may be in the cards.
    Going to go to the apple store and ask there, but i am not hopeful.
