i dont know how can i connect to owb olap (cube) in jdeveloper.
i read some where that bi beans is for this issue but bi beans does not work in jdeveloper 11 and there is no component in jdeveloper 11 adf dvt for connecting to cubes.
if any body have some ideas please help me.
thanks

I have 2 TARs currently open...
1. 2865331.995
Is about when running the CWM2 stored procedures to create metadata, my OLAP catalog becomes invalid. This has the bug 2858427 associated with it.
2. 2904033.996
Is about poor performance. When the metatdata has been created using OEM. I have created my metadata and OLAP materialized views, but they are not being utilised in the executed SQL.

Can you use SQL as a data source for a project in the same way you can in Excel?

Excel allows you to create a data source that executes a SQL stored procedure, display that data as a table in a spreadsheet and have that data automatically refresh each time you open the spreadsheet. Is it possible to do the same thing in MS Project, displaying
the data from the stored procedure as a series of tasks?
Here's what I'm trying to do - I have a stored procedure that pulls task data meeting a specific criteria from all projects in Project Server. We're currently displaying this data as an Excel report. However, the data includes start dates and durations so
it would be nice to be able to display it as a Gantt Chart. I've played around with creating a Gantt chart in Excel and have been able to do a very basic one, but it doesn’t quite fit our needs.

No, You can not use sql as a data source for a project.
You have 3 options to achieve it:
1. You can create a Sharepoint list with desired column ,fill desired data in that list then you can create a MS project from Sharepoint List.
2. You can create a SSRS report in which you can display grantt chart Joe has given you that link.
3. You can write a macro in MPP which will take data from your excel. In excel you will fetch data from your stored procedure. write a schedule which will run every day to update your data or
create an excel report in which will update automatically and write macro in mpp which will fetch the data then publish it so that it would be available to team members.

Helvetica font for a project

I need to use a full adobe helvetica version for a project. The system will not let me load it because it uses some helveticas for screen view. How can I change the system font so I can use the helveetica I need?

We're both getting into scary territory here, but...
Beginning with Leopard, 10.5, Apple has made it nearly impossible to remove critical fonts. If you attempt to remove protected fonts from the /System/Library/Fonts/ folder, the OS will tell you that you cannot remove the font(s) and replaces them from copies in another location. Sometimes immediately, at other times, after you have restarted. Even if it doesn't immediately replace Lucida Grande, the OS continues to use it from the protected location, preventing you from losing control of your Mac. There are quite a few fonts you can still remove from the /System/Library/Fonts/ folder, but others resurrect themselves if removed. See section five on how to permanently remove Apple's supplied versions of Helvetica and Helvetica Neue in Leopard, 10.5 or Snow Leopard, 10.6 if this is important for you.

10,000 RPM HD for LP9 - Projects ?

Hi,
Would using a 10,000 RPM HD for LP9 projects, help improve the overall performance/response of the system, compared to 7,200 RPM HD. when working with Logic Pro 9 projects ?
Thanks.

Thanks,
I will be working with rather a large count of audio tracks, mainly audio stems recorded into LP9 from slave PCs hosting VST instruments. Which I would then need to edit, mix, and process in LP9.
I guess having a fast drive (10K RPM) would make audio work snappier when editing ?

JSF - Best Practice For Using Managed Bean

I want to discuss what is the best practice for managed bean usage, especially using session scope or request scope to build database driven pages
---- Session Bean ----
- In the book Core Java Server Faces, the author mentioned that most of the cases session bean should be used, unless the processing is passed on to other handler. Since JSF can store the state on client side, i think storing everything in session is not a big memory concern. (can some expert confirm this is true?) Session objects are easy to manage and states can be shared across the pages. It can make programming easy.
In the case of a page binded to a resultset, the bean usually helds a java.util.List object for the result, which is intialized in the constructor by query the database first. However, this approach has a problem: when user navigates to other page and comes back, the data is not refreshed. You can of course solve the problem by issuing query everytime in your getXXX method. But you need to be very careful that you don't bind this XXX property too many times. In the case of querying in getXXX, setXXX is also tricky as you don't have a member to set. You usually don't want to persist the resultset changes in the setXXX as the changes may not be final, in stead, you want to handle in the actionlistener (like a save(actionevent)).
I would glad to see your thought on this.
--- Request Bean ---
request bean is initialized everytime a reuqest is made. It sometimes drove me nuts because JSF seems not to be every consistent in updating model values. Suppose you have a page showing parent-children a list of records from database, and you also allow user to change directly on the children. if I hbind the parent to a bean called #{Parent} and you bind the children to ADF table (value="#{Parent.children}" var="rowValue". If I set Parent as a request scope, the setChildren method is never called when I submit the form. Not sure if this is just for ADF or it is JSF problem. But if you change the bean to session scope, everything works fine.
I believe JSF doesn't update the bindings for all component attributes. It only update the input component value binding. Some one please verify this is true.
In many cases, i found request bean is very hard to work with if there are lots of updates. (I have lots of trouble with update the binding value for rendered attributes).
However, request bean is working fine for read only pages and simple binded forms. It definitely frees up memory quicker than session bean.
----- any comments or opinions are welcome!!! ------

I think it should be either Option 2 or Option 3.
Option 2 would be necessary if the bean data depends on some request parameters.
(Example: Getting customer bean for a particular customer id)
Otherwise Option 3 seems the reasonable approach.
But, I am also pondering on this issue. The above are just my initial thoughts.

Defining the path for the use of beans in a JSP

          Hello,
          I would like to use a bean in a JSP file, via the <jsp:usebean> directive.
          I didn't find any property (weblogic property) which could define the path
          to the directory of my beans classes.
          So :
          1) i have put the path of this directory in the weblogic classpath in the weblogic
          start script.
          2) i made the same with the java classpath.
          Both solutions don't work at all.
          Any suggestion would be appreciated.
          Thanks in advance.


          We use the \weblogic\myserver\serverclasses for beans..
          of course we pack beans into jar files, and these jar files are included into
          the wls classpath..

Hi ILya Cyclone,
Thanks alotfor the reply. Can you tell me where should i include this in the jspx page.
Step 1)
I have the js file as js/ifl_messages_US.js and i created a resource file as you mentioned: JS_FILE_PATH=js/ifl_messages_US.js
Step 2)
Then added the entry in faces-config.xml for the resource file as follow:
<resource-bundle>
<base-name>resource_en.properties</base-name>
<var>resource</var>
</resource-bundle>
<locale-config>
<supported-locale>en</supported-locale>
</locale-config>
Step 3) This is my jspx page. In which a table is dynamically created on page load. Can you help me where should i enter the "#{resource.JS_FILE_PATH}"

Using DVT for Anonymous user

Hi,
Can we use DVT for user interface customization for anonymous user,i need to use the DVT with out user login.Please let me know if there is any way of doing it
Regards,
Prabu

Hi Prabu,
Not really, no. If the user is anonymous, the Portal framework has no way of persisting the changes he/she makes into the database, because they can't be associated with a unique user.
If you really wanted to, you could automatically log in a predefined user (aka. a user with the name "anonymous"). However, since everyone would be logged in as the same user, changes made by anyone would be seen by everyone, and users would be undoing/redoing each other's changes constantly.

How to bind ADF table with a collection of elements using backing bean.

Hi Experts,
My JDev version is 11.1.1.6.0.
I need to bind ADF table with a collection of elements using backing bean.
My backing bean consists of 6 lists of strings, where each list represents a column of table. How can I populate the entries of table with these lists.
Thanks
Gopi

Hi,
Create an object representing the row (setter/getter). Then have a list of these objects. Drag and drop the table and point its value to the list and the type to the row object

Problem in Master Detail form when using ADF table for Detail

hi,
jdev version-11.1.2.1.0
i have create Master detail form using datacontrol drag as ADF Master Form Detail Table.
Now when i create a new row in Detail table using CreateInsert button a blank new row created on the top of detail table.
and other row show that data of previous record based on master.
problem is that i want when i click on createInsert button all row of detail table should be blank and when user fill two or three row then commit.
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
if a detail table has data, then createInsert adds to these. If you want to hide existing rows, create a new View Object instance and set its "Retrieve from the Database" option to "No Rows". The use an af:switcher to change the table shown when the user clicks the createInsert button. There is a bit of coding required to have this use case in ADF, but its mostly declarative. Bottom line is that there is no automated option other than creating new rows in a separate page or dialog if you are bothered by existing rows

Achie,
This is not an issue with the graph as such, but the data issue. Since the value of the data that is being displayed is huge and other datas are relatively very small to occupy the graph area (Ex : 60105 Vs 10).
You may want to try implementing zoomListener and/or zoomScrollListener for the graph to zoom and see the small datas.

I am using a data control to plot my graph.
I have added drillingEnabled, and drill listeners to my code as follows, but its not working
<dvt:graph shortDesc="Graph" id="g1" value="#{bindings.EmpGrpViewObj1.graphModel}"
drillingEnabled="true"
drillRequestingListener="#{pageFlowScope.backing_test.onClickDrill}"
drillRequestedListener="#{pageFlowScope.backing_test.onClickDrill1}"
animationOnDisplay="auto" animationOnDataChange="alphaFade"
/>
Also I am follwoing link - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12839_01/apirefs.1111/e12418/tagdoc/dvt_pivotTable.html
which says Drill operation is available only when underlying data control supports it. Does same applies for graph as well? I mean, if datacontrol used to define graph, then it should support drill operation. How to make data control to support drill action for graphs?

some comments floating here
Drilldown in ADF DVT charts using data control

Help Needed : ADF DVT Dual Y graph Tabular data

Hi,
I need to display a dvt:lineGraph containing 2 Y axis.
The data for the graph is tabular data from a backing bean.
I am able to display a single y axis graph.
But since dual y graph needs two series set I am facing problem in specifying that which rows belongs to first series set and which rows belong to the other series set.
The tabular data is a dynamic one which may change upon every partial refresh every 5 seconds.

Hi,
Please see my response on this thread on how to achieve this with a relational data control:

Generate PDF using Managed Bean with custom HTTP headers

Background
Generate a report in various formats (e.g., PDF, delimited, Excel, HTML, etc.) using JDeveloper 11g Release 2 (11.1.2.3.0) upon clicking an af:commandButton. See also the StackOverflow version of this question:
http://stackoverflow.com/q/13654625/59087
Problem
HTTP headers are being sent twice: once by the framework and once by a bean.
Source Code
The source code includes:
- Button Action
- Managed Bean
- Task Flow
Button Action
The button action:
<af:commandButton text="Report" id="submitReport" action="Execute" />
Managed Bean
The Managed Bean is fairly complex. The code to `responseComplete` is getting called, however it does not seem to be called sufficiently early to prevent the application framework from writing the HTTP headers.
HTTP Response Header Override
* Sets the HTTP headers required to indicate to the browser that the
* report is to be downloaded (rather than displayed in the current
* window).
protected void setDownloadHeaders() {
HttpServletResponse response = getServletResponse();
response.setHeader( "Content-Description", getContentDescription() );
response.setHeader( "Content-Disposition", "attachment, filename="
+ getFilename() );
response.setHeader( "Content-Type", getContentType() );
response.setHeader( "Content-Transfer-Encoding",
getContentTransferEncoding() );
Issue Response Complete
The bean indirectly tells the framework that the response is handled (by the bean):
getFacesContext().responseComplete();
Bean Run and Configure
public void run() {
try {
Report report = getReport();
configure(report.getParameters());
report.run();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
private void configure(Parameters p) {
p.put(ReportImpl.SYSTEM_REPORT_PROTOCOL, "http");
p.put(ReportImpl.SYSTEM_REPORT_HOST, "localhost");
p.put(ReportImpl.SYSTEM_REPORT_PORT, "7002");
p.put(ReportImpl.SYSTEM_REPORT_PATH, "/reports/rwservlet");
p.put(Parameters.PARAM_REPORT_FORMAT, "pdf");
p.put("report_cmdkey", getReportName());
p.put("report_ORACLE_1", getReportDestinationType());
p.put("report_ORACLE_2", getReportDestinationFormat());
Task Flow
The Task Flow calls Execute, which refers to the bean's `run()` method:
entry -> main -> Execute -> ReportBeanRun
Where:
<method-call id="ReportBeanRun">
<description>Executes a report</description>
<display-name>Execute Report</display-name>
<method>#{reportBean.run}</method>
<outcome>
<fixed-outcome>success</fixed-outcome>
</outcome>
</method-call>
The bean is assigned to the `request` scope, with a few managed properties:
<control-flow-rule id="__3">
<from-activity-id>main</from-activity-id>
<control-flow-case id="ExecuteReport">
<from-outcome>Execute</from-outcome>
<to-activity-id>ReportBeanRun</to-activity-id>
</control-flow-case>
</control-flow-rule>
<managed-bean id="ReportBean">
<description>Executes a report</description>
<display-name>ReportBean</display-name>
<managed-bean-scope>request</managed-bean-scope>
</managed-bean>
The `<fixed-outcome>success</fixed-outcome>` strikes me as incorrect -- I don't want the method call to return to another task.
Restrictions
The report server receives requests from the web server exclusively. The report server URL cannot be used by browsers to download directly, for security reasons.
Error Messages
The error message that is generated:
Duplicate headers received from server
Error 349 (net::ERR_RESPONSE_HEADERS_MULTIPLE_CONTENT_DISPOSITION): Multiple distinct Content-Disposition headers received. This is disallowed to protect against HTTP response splitting attacks.Nevertheless, the report is being generated. Preventing the framework from writing the HTTP headers would resolve this issue.
Question
How can you set the HTTP headers in ADF while using a Task Flow to generate a PDF by calling a managed bean?
Ideas
Some additional ideas:
- Override the Page Lifecycle Phase Listener (`ADFPhaseListener` + `PageLifecycle`)
- Develop a custom Servlet on the web server

Thank you!

The problem was that the HTTP headers were in fact being written twice:
1. The report server was returning HTTP response headers.
2. The bean was including its own HTTP response headers (as shown in the question).
3. The bean was copying the entire contents of the report server response, including the headers, into the output stream.
Firefox ignored the duplicate header errors, but Google Chrome did not.
