Using Context searches in Discoverer

Is there a way to use context searches in Discoverer? Any documentation?
Thanks!

Hi there,
I have been developing Discoverer reports (using Customer Folders) where the data is retrieved from apps views (rather than from tables) but I am fairly new to Oracle Apps. I acknowledge (including the previous post) that the Apps views include the PL/SQL code to perform the Org Id checking.
I believe that the Organization Id is derived from the 'Responsibility', hence only the related data is retrieved. Therefore, I have not included any special code to check for Organization-specific data.
Can anyone tell me whether this assumption is correct? More importantly, how/where does the Responsibility define the Organisation or set the 'Client_info'?
In SQL*Plus or TOAD, I would run the following script to set the client_info before any data can be retrieved. My Org Id is 83.
begin
dbms_application_info.set_client_info('83');
end
Thanks, looking forward to an answer.
Regards,
John

Problem in using Intermedia search with Oracel 9i DB on Red hat Linux

Hi,
I am unable to search a particular text in a blob using Intermedia search feature.I am using Oracle 9i (9.0.2 version)mounted on Red Hat Linux OS.
It works well on a Windows 2k OS.
To be more precise the following query fails when I pass the INSO_FILTER as the parameter.
"CREATE INDEX WM_WORKDETAILIDX ON WM_WORKDETAIL (WM_ITEMDATA) INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT Parameter(CTXSYS.INSO_FILTER)".
Any Help towards it is highly appreciated.
thanks & regards /Ravi

Did you check the script to try to see what it was/is doing?

Use of search help exit

use of search help exit with an example

Hi,
A search help describes the standard input help process. In exceptions it could be necessary to deviate in some points from this standard. Such a deviation from the standard can also be implemented with a search help exit.
The input help process should look as much the same as possible throughout the entire system. Search help exits should therefore only be used for exceptions.
A search help exit is a function module that has a predefined interface. A search help exit is called at certain times by the help processor. The administrative data of the help processor are passed to the search help exit using the interface.
You can store your own program logic that manipulates this administrative data in the search help exit. Individual steps of the input help process can be skipped with a search help exit.
for example
Search help exit F4UT_OPTIMIZE_COLWIDTH adjusts the column width in the hit list to the contents of the column. It makes sense to use this search help exit when the columns of the hit list have to be made very wide for extreme cases (e.g. for name fields), but normally they will contain much smaller values.
Each search help exit must have the same interface as function module F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE (is used as pattern for all the search help exits to be created). You can find more information about the interface in the documentation for this function module.
Calling the Search Help Exit
If a search help exit is assigned to a search help, the help processor calls it at the following times:
Before Displaying the Dialog Box for Selecting the Required Search Path.
It is only called for collective search helps. Using the search help exit, the set of elementary search helps available can for example be restricted depending on the context.
Before Starting the F4 Process for the Elementary Search Help
The call is triggered independent of whether the dialog window for entering the search conditions appears or whether the selection is executed immediately (for example, because in the Hot key of the elementary search help Immediate value display is set).
Before Displaying the Dialog Box for Entering Search Conditions.
You can either influence the dialog for entering search conditions or skip it altogether here. You can also influence how the selection screen looks. The call is triggered only if there is no direct selection (that is, if in the Hot key of the elementary search help Immediate value display is not set).
Before Selecting Data.
The data selection can be partly or completely copied from the search help exit. This can become necessary if the data selection cannot be implemented with a SELECT statement for a table or a view.
Before Displaying the Hit List.
You can influence the display of the hit list in this step with the search help exit. You can reduce the number of values displayed here. For example, you can display only values for which the person calling the input help has authorization. You can also copy the complete hit list from the search help exit.
Before Returning the Values Selected by the User to the Input Template.
It could be advisable to intervene at this time if control of the further transaction flow should depend on the value selected. A typical example is setting set/get parameters.

Problem with context search in iFS

Hello , here is my problem with iFS.
We have installation of Oracle 8.1.7 Enterprise edition with interMedia and iFS 1.1 on same server (Windows NT Server 4.0/512 RAM). During install everything went fine.
I had uploaded about 200 MB files in the iFS (pdf's and html's).
The problem is when I try to use context based search. If I search for file's name everything is fine, but when I search for a word that is in a file it almost immediately gives mi "0 file(s) found", and I'm sure that there are files that have that word in their body's.
What can be the problem?
Any sugestions will be in help.
Thanks in advance.

That's the way it works. Content Indexing is not on insert, it occurs when the ctxsrv process runs. See the IntermediaText doc for more information.
<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Documents's content is stored in the GLOBALINDEXEDBLOB column of the IFSSYS.ODMM_CONTENTSTORE table.
There is an text index GLOBALINDEXEDBLOB_I built on this column.
To make the context search possible just update this index using the following command in SQL*Plus:
SQL> exec ctx_ddl.sync_index('GLOBALINDEXEDBLOB_I');
If you want this index be updated automatically when new documents are uploaded/changed/deleted in iFS then start the ctxsrv utility on the computer where your Oracle database resides. To do this issue the following command in OS command line:
ctxsrv -user ctxsys/ctxpwd@db_alias
just replace here ctxpwd and db_alias with real values you specified during the installation.

Oracle text performance with context search indexes

Search performance using context index.
We are intending to move our search engine to a new one based on Oracle Text, but we are meeting some
bad performance issues when using search.
Our application allows the user to search stored documents by name, object identifier and annotations(formerly set on objects).
For example, suppose I want to find a document named ImportSax2.c: according to user set parameters, our search engine format the following
search queries :
1) If the user explicitely ask for a search by document name, the query is the following one =>
 select objid FROM ADSOBJ WHERE CONTAINS( OBJFIELDURL , 'ImportSax2.c WITHIN objname' , 1 ) > 0;
2) If the user don't specify any extra parameters, the query is the following one =>
 select objid FROM ADSOBJ WHERE CONTAINS( OBJFIELDURL , 'ImportSax2.c' , 1 ) > 0;
Oracle text only need around 7 seconds to answer the second query, whereas it need around 50 seconds to give an answer for the first query.
Here is a part of the sql script used for creating the Oracle Text index on the column OBJFIELDURL
(this column stores a path to an xml file containing properties that have to be indexed for each object) :
begin
Ctx_Ddl.Create_Preference('wildcard_pref', 'BASIC_WORDLIST');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute('wildcard_pref', 'wildcard_maxterms', 200) ;
ctx_ddl.set_attribute('wildcard_pref','prefix_min_length',3);

Oracle created a table named DR$ADSOBJ_XOBJFIELDURL$I which now contains around 25 millions records.
ADSOBJ is the table contaings information for our documents,OBJFIELDURL is the field that contains the path to the xml file containing
data to index. That file looks like this :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

<OBJREM><![CDATA[Z_CARACT_141]]></OBJREM>
<OBJID>295926o.jpgp</OBJID>
</fields>
Can someone tell me how I can make that kind of request
"select objid FROM ADSOBJ WHERE CONTAINS( OBJFIELDURL , 'ImportSax2.c WITHIN objname' , 1 ) > 0;"
run faster ?

Below are the execution plan for both the 2 requests :
select objid FROM ADSOBJ WHERE CONTAINS( OBJFIELDURL , 'ImportSax2.c WITHIN objname' , 1 ) > 0

Use RoboHelp Search to Search Website

Hello All,
I was wondering if it it possible to use RoboHelp's search feature to search a website that is not part of the WebHelp system.
I am using RoboHelp (WebHelp output) for context-sensitive help, and this is delivered with the application and run through the application, rather than on a website. Since this is installed on the client machine, I am trying to keep it from getting too large, and have moved more general topics out to a website. So, I would like for users to be able to search both the WebHelp content and the website content from the RoboHelp search field, if that would be possible.
Does anyone know if that can be accoplished, and if so, how?

Hi there
First off, no. RoboHelp cannot be used to search a Web Site. Unless, of course, the Web Site is one that was constructed entirely in RoboHelp.
Secondly, you posted this question in the WinHelp forum. So I'm going to move it from here to the WebHelp forum where it really belongs.
Cheers... Rick

ConText Search Option - Need Help

Hi,
I am wondering if the freely available oracle s/w supports ConText search option. I am getting error notice when i tried to configure context search option by ctxctl command.
Please suggest me what to do to invoke conText search option.
Thanks,
Rajesh

It would be a stand alone program, when you enter a url into the input box and hit search it should load the url typed in , in frame 2. But if the "Use Proxy" check box is checked then it should include the proxy in each search.
This swf is pretty self explanitory - http://www.mediafire.com/?6e9kl90s23lcyb9

Context search on content + other field(s)

I'm using oracle.ifs.search.* classes to do a context search on the content but at the same time I want to do a context search on the DOCUMENT.DESCRIPTION field.
(A bit like what you can do when searching in this Forum)
The ContextSearchSpecification only seems to allow 1 classname for the context Query.
I could use a FreeFormQualification instead, I guess, but then I'm not only loosing late binding, but I cannot get to the score results and nor can I sort on the scores.
Are there ways to overcome this ?
Are there any examples on how to use a FreeFormQualification exactly ?
null

Another method that puzzles me a lot :
oracle.ifs.search.ContextSearchSpecification.setMedia(oracle.ifs.beans.Media [] media)
It is supposed to explicitly set the Media to search over. Can I use it to do a context search on multiple media ? It looks that way.
oracle.ifs.beans.Media is not documented.
Any examples of the use of setMedia ?

Context search defaults to local country

Select part of a web page, right click it and "search Google for ....." appears.
This feature works perfectly when I am in the UK, but I travel and currently it searches Thailand version of Google - I want it to search the UK version of Google.
Is there any way to force Firefox to search Google.co.uk and not Google.com?
Using Windows XP - Firefox 8.0.1

The browser.search.selectedEngine pref determines which of the installed search engines to use for context search if it exists. 
Otherwise the default search engine as specified in browser.search.defaultenginename is used. 
If you do not have the browser.search.selectedEngine pref then you can create a new String pref with the name browser.search.selectedEngine and set the name to the preferred search engine. 
I see a browser.search.selectedEngine pref if I select a search engine that is different from the default search engine.
Do you have a Google.co.uk ((Google UK) search engine installed?
You can find search engines on the Mycroft Project website.

Context search in iFS/Linu

Hello,
my question is about the INSO_FILTER that is used when binary files are indexed(pdf, doc,..). In the IFS context search is about that, and there is IFS for Linux, that means that there is some kind of filter for Linux. Can that filter be used to index documents with Oracle text under Linux?
Thanks

AVG Secure Search appears when I use Google Search from my Home page only.

My home page is the Firefox default page with the Google searchbar. I like getting occasional messages from Firefox when I log in so I don't want to change my homepage. However, when I use the searchbar ''on my homepage only'', I get the unsatisfactory AVG Secure Search results.
UPDATE: I now realize all the troubleshooting information I included in my original question appears under the "More System Details" link next to the question, not in the body of the question. I have copied it here to make it easier to see what I have already done to try to solve the problem, as well as describe the one clue I have that may be relevant:
I have tried all the fixes on various threads, but my about:config is now pristine (no avg or isearch mentions; keyword.url is default). Closest solution is that at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/866327 , which requires changing my home page.
Oddly, AVG Secure Search is ''not'' a problem when I use the Google toolbar or search from the Google website, only when I use the search bar that appears on my home (start) page. This is true even when I return to my home page--if I search from the Google search bar in the middle of the page, I get sent to AVG Safe Search. (isearch.avg.com).
I read in one thread a suggestion to delete my chromeappsstore.sqlite file in my Profile folder. As promised, Firefox created a new one when I restarted it; however, the search bar in the middle of my home home page did not work at all. Tried this three times before restoring my original.
I do not have an application that will open a sqlite file, but I tried doing so in Excel and found a cell containing the following:
emoh.:moz-safe-aboutsearch-engine{"name":"AVG Secure Search","searchUrl":"http://isearch.avg.com/search?cid={7A3C25A0-E345-4507-AA31-D98F596A81A9}&mid=c48135235ba247d18ac1d14b344db451-addd29eab2809954d5abdf0b991a5b911a297819&ds=is015&lang=en&v=10.0.0.7&pr=sa&d=&sap=dsp&q=_searchTerms_"}
I have no clue what that means, but it is the only thing I can find related to Firefox that still mentions AVG and isearch.avg.com.
At this point my best guess (but it is a guess) is that the chromeappsstore.sqlite file is a key to the complete solution, but I do not have enough knowledge to go beyond and address it. I appreciate any help you anyone can offer.

Here is the way to get rid of the problem once and for all:

I accidentally quit my CC on my Macbook pro and now the cloud icon is grayed out and every time I hover over it with the mouse I get the spinning beach ball of death on the icon. I have no idea how to open it because when I use spotlight search to open it

I accidentally quit my CC on my Macbook pro and now the cloud icon is grayed out and every time I hover over it with the mouse I get the spinning beach ball of death on the icon. I have no idea how to open it because when I use spotlight search to open it it gives me a message saying "Creative Cloud is not open anymore" help!

Since you didn't include any pertinent info such as the Mac model and OS version you are running, here is some general information:
Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup
Depending on which OS yours came with originally - and which OS you are now running - you would either need your original install disks - you can call Apple for replacements by giving them your serial number. Or you may be able to reinstall the OS by using recovery (again, depends on which model/which OS).

Is there a way to use different search engines on the main bar and on the small one without having to switch anything on the small one?

I want to use google when I type to search in the main bar and wikipedia on the small search bar on the right. However, they both seem to use the same search engine, depending on which one I've chosen on the small search bar. I want them to use different ones without having to click and change engines. How can I do that?

You can use a (one letter) keyword search on the location/address bar and assign a keyword via "Manage Search Engines".
You can use the Keyword Search extension to specify which search engine to use for searching via the location/address bar.

How can I use LDAP searching from OSX Lion Server to Mozilla Thunderbird?

How can I use LDAP searching from OSX Lion Server to Mozilla Thunderbird? We have a super awesome contacts server that works great for our Mac users. About 30% of our company are on PCs, and I would like to use the Mozilla Thunderbird mail client for them. I see that in Thunderbird I can set up LDAP searching, and would like to have this feature point to our contacts server. I've tried several different settings, and looked all over the web, but could not find the proper way to configure this. Does anyone know if this can be done, or if not, would have a better suggestion? Thank you for your time!!

How do I get at Session using Context's

Hi,
Please can someone help me out. I am working on an extended version of the jboss DatabaseServerLoginModule and part of this involves overidding the login() method. The login() method provides no parameters such as request etc and so I have no way of getting at the session.
How can I get at the session using Context's?
i.e. starting with say InitialContext and going from there....
any ideas?
Regards,
Paul.

Sounds like a JBoss question to me. Seems to me that JBoss support would be the place to go for answers. It's really not a general Java programming question.
