Field width in ALV report

Hi,
How to increase the field width of a field in ALV report.
I mean, in a ALV report, the field description of a field is not showing correctly. IF i try to extend the field width by the mouse/coursor, it displays the correct description.
IS there any way where for displaying the field description correctly?
Thanks,
Kumar

There are a number of ways to create a fieldcat.
For the purpose of this example i will build the fieldcatalog manualy
by populating the internal table fields individually and then
appending the rows. This method can be the most time consuming but can
also allow you more control of the final product.
Beware though, you need to ensure that all fields required are
populated. When using some of functionality available via ALV, such as
total. You may need to provide more information than if you were
simply displaying the result
I.e. Field type may be required in-order for
the 'TOTAL' function to work.

Report page scaling/zoom for paper size and field width?

Are there ways to design a report, or programmatically set a report to dynamically resize based on factors such as paper size (A4 vs. Letter vs. Legal), orientation (portrait vs. landscape), and field width (e.g fields grow and shrink based on data)? We are looking at ways to dynamically choose paper size and scale. This would be similar to how Excel files can adjust for printing depending on paper, and PDF files can zoom in/out for paper size.
Thanks,
Kyle

We don't want to add fields dynamically at runtime. Instead we want to automatically resize fields at runtime to properly fit data on the page. Currently with our 400 reports, data fields have gotten longer over the years so important data is being truncated. We'd like it if fields could properly grow/shrink/scale so that the data is always valid. We'd like it if the user flips from portrait to landscape, the field widths automatically grow to use the entire page. Or, if a user goes from Letter to A4, pagination still works properly and the fields get slightly wider to fit the A4 standard.
What we don't want is to have a version of the report for portrait Letter, portrait A4, portrait Legal, landscape Letter, landscape A4, landscape Legal, etc. It would be a support nightmare.
I don't know if it is possible, but I'm hoping it is. Thanks for the help.

Field width alignment after 2006 to 2008 upgrade

Field width alignment after 2006 to 2008 upgrade
I've noticed that after upgrading from 2006 to 2008 all of the textarea type fields are no longer being displayed the same way they used to be. In the 2006 version I would create text fields with a width of 50 and textarea fields with 37 columns, which would end up being displayed in the browser as the same width. After the upgrade all of the textareas are smaller in width. I tried changing the width of one to 50 and that made it match the width of the text field. If a change was made to make it easier to keep the widths of different field types aligned, that is great for building future services, but I don't want to have to go update every service across every environment to make the forms display properly. Has anyone else run into this?

Tylor,
Here's the scoop directly from the man who runs our UI team.
In 2006 we had a bug where the field sizes specified for “text” and “textarea” fields were rendered as different sizes. Therefore the customer would use a field with 50 for “text” and 37 for “textarea”. This has been fixed in 2008. So, in 2008 if 50 is specified for “text” and “textarea”, the rendered versions of these are aligned.
To solve the problem two approaches can be taken.
#1. Update all “textarea”

JWS1.2 & Missing version field in response

I must say that the guys with JWS1.2 have done well in getting around the proxy issues with the previous versions. However, its disappointing to see this error still occuring when you perform a version based download which is one of the most useful pieces of functionality in JWS (see quote below) . So when a cleint has proxy issues its goodbye 'Bad MIME type error' and hello 'Missing version field in response from server when accessing resource'. Is this really progress? Surely most people use version based downloads?
Will this be fixed for 1.4.1 final and / or does anybody know of a workaround? I've included a previous quote, our jnlp, errors and stack dump below.
Many thanks
Ian
Quote from dietz Jul9, 2002
"The problem is probably that your proxy server is not passing on the correct mime type. Some proxy servers (I'm sorry I don't remember which ones) will only pass on mime types that they are aware of, and will substitute text/html, for others. This should be no problem when using Java Web Start 1.2, since it itself does not require that jnlp files download come with the proper mime type. You may still have a problem using these proxy servers if you are running a servlet implementing the jardiff (incremental update) protocol, since Java Web Start may use the mime type to differenciate between jar files (application/x-java-archive) and jardiff files (application/x-java-archive-diff) "

Version based download protocol is not available with vanila web server.
You need to either run some form of script, jsp, or a servlet such as the JNLPDownloadServlet included in the developers pack, to return the requested version, and with the version information.
If you are currently running the servlet you may still be having problem with your proxy having security settings that prohibit sending the additional version information on to the client, although I have never heard of this before.

Field width in Crystal Reports 10 Standard Edition

I have a text field in an Access table of 50 chars. When I place that field on a report the default width in design view is less than 50, showing a given number of "X"s. I widen the field beyond the "X"s but still the full content of the field is not displayed in preview mode. For instance I have loaded the field with 50 chars and the 50 chars are not displayed in preview. Is there a way to tell Crystal Reports to default the width of the field in design view to the length of the field in Access? I am a former DOS programmer, where we would specify in the code the width of the display in a form or report. I have always been bothered by the GUI interface because the design interface does not default to the field width and therefore data can be hidden. Professionally, I missed the switch from the DOS interface to the GUI interface. This issue with field layout has always troubled me. Also in the Dummies book (and in CR Help) there is a statement to the effect that CR 10 "automatically adjusts the fields displayed to match the field sizes you chose, and spaces them out proportionally". I see no indication of this. Thanks.

Just to clarify, if I widen the field quite a bit, way beyond the "X"s I do eventually see the 50 chars in preview mode. But for some reason CR puts down 40 "X"s for a field of length 50. And then I have to just play around with the width until I can see the 50 chars on the report. Am I doing something wrong or is there a setting that needs to be adjusted? I guess I am hoping to see the number of "X"s be equal to the length of the text string.
I did learn about "can grow". When I connect to Excel CR puts down 40 "X"s and I have to fudge with the width until I see the full 50 chars.
With the GUI interface is the developer thinking more in terms of inches vs. number of characters? Like I said I am a dinosaur and I struggle with detail.

Missing version field in response...( Tomcat, JBuilder )

Hello,
(Sorry for a long message, but I saw several times messages with the only
response like "write more details...")
I'm trying to execute a simple Web Start application using version-based download.
I'm constantly receiving the following error:
Missing version field in response from server when accessing resource:

Is it possible that there is a bug somewhere within Web Start ?
The download is working in a basic version - the problem starts to occur when
I'm changing JNLP to:
<jar href="CheckBoxControl.jar" version="1.1"/>
Is there anybody that can help me ?

Missing version field in response from server when accessing resource

HY
I have a problem to use the version option of the webstart. All files are included into a war file (created with jar cvf xx.war *). This file is in the webapps folder of the Tomcat 5. The jar files from the dev. kit (jnlp-servlet.jar, jaxp.jar, parser.jar are in the WEB-INF/lib folder).
Every time I get the same message:

I put my problems down to my application server (Orion) as other people seem to have this working. The deployment in Orion keeps the original timestamps of the jars, so I explicitly set the timestamps in my build so that the unchanged jars do not have to be downloaded all the time. This is not really a good solution, so maybe someone else can give further advice.

How to add production Version field in COOIS to selection options?

Dear Experts,
Need your suggestion for below issue raised by client.
1) As per client, he was running COOIS with the selection option of a production version. But currently he is not able to see this selection while executing a COOIS t-code.-----> Kindly guide me on its possibilities & necesary checks.
2) If I want to correct it & want to add Production Version field in COOIS report what steps I should take?
Need all your valuable guidence to resolve above issue.
Thanks & Regards,
Mehul

Hello Vivek,
Really thanks for your mail. Please see below comments-
1) I checked the transaction COOIS & also told user to select Production Version after executing the report by giving Plant code & dates. But user asking for this field before execution.
As per your suggestion I checked in Header level of first screen but its not showing me also.
2) I am using ECC6.0 version
3) One finding from my side- This is I am checking only selecting Production Orders. But when I am selecting only Planned order then Production version can be seen in first screen under Repetitive Mfg. section.
so kindly tell me why this not showing when Production order selected?
Thanks in Advance for your help.
Regards,
Mehul

Optimistic Locking fails when version field is part of a Aggregate

I'm trying to persist a Mapped Object using 9.0.3 Toplink.
The object uses optimistic locking while the Timestamp versioning field is part of an Aggreate Descriptor. This works well in the Workbench (does not complain).
Unfortunally it does not work whenever I use the UnitOfWork to register and commit the chances.
Sample code:
Object original;
UnitOfWork unitOfWork = ...
Object clone =   unitOfWork.registerExistingObject(original);
clone.setBarcode("bliblalbu");
unitOfWork.commit();This throws an nasty OptimisticLockException, complaining about a missing versioning field:

Sorry guys. My debugger fooled me. The locking field wasn't initialized in the database. This caused the problem which is fixed now.
Thx anyway.

Field Widths and Column Formatting

What is used in java to format field widths and Columns in Java when outputting to the command line?
I know in C++ you use setw and setprecision, buy what do I use for Java?

Yes. The APEX templates use stylesheets to render your reports. APEX also provides a STYLE attribute under each report column that you can plug in in-line style values to force you text to align=top and so on. You can manipulate your format that way, or through the more difficult alternative of actually altering the CSS and/or the report region templates that APEX uses. [this requires a working knowledge that is way beyond adding style="xxxx" to a report column]

Version Based Downloading w/JBoss Missing Version Field....

Here we go again, version based downloading difficulties.
I cannot get version based downloading to work using the version.xml file or using file based versioning.
My environment is
JBoss 4.0.3 SP1 (whatever version of tomcat container this contains)
JRE 1.5.0_06
I have a .ear file which contains a .war file which contains the appropriate folder format and loose application jars, html, jnlp, etc., as described in the "Packaging JNLP Applications in a Web Archive" document.
My web.xml file looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

]NOTE: changing the <url-pattern> value to anything but *.jnlp causes JBoss to throw an exception during application deployment[i]

This configuration spits out the famous "Missing version field from server....." that I have seen many times in this forum. The download servlet is getting executed because I am getting a log file generated every time. Debug is the only value that will put out a log. The log output looks like this:

JnlpDownloadServlet(4): lastModified: 1133794820000 Mon Dec 05 10:00:20 EST 2005If I remove the version= tag from the main jnlp file, everything loads fine, but there is no versioning. I have also tried to remove the version.xml file from the package and change my jar files to use file based versioning, but that didn't work either. I rebuilt my jar files with the __V1.0 extension and the complaint was that it couldn't load the resource totalvu.jar. Well, ya, it is now named totalvu__V1.0.jar! Again, versioning is being ignored. The double underscore and V was not recognized as anything special.
The servlet is running long enough to spit out a log file, no errors. It looks like it succesfully processed the jnlp files, but there is no indication of any versioning.
Doe the jnlp.jar and jardiff.jar files need to be included in the lib folder in the .war file? I am only including the jnlp-servlet.jar. They were not referenced in the example war file in the documentation, but I have seen them referenced in older doc for other app servers. I did try including them, but it made no difference of course. Guess this question is just a housekeeping question.
Does anyone have any insight on this problem?
I am at the point where I think I would like to get the source and debug through it to see what is going on, but that should be unecessary.

Thanks. I had the same problem.
As danrak suggests, just add this to your web.xml file to parse .jar and/or .zip file extensions:
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>JnlpDownloadServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.zip</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>JnlpDownloadServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.jar</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

Missing version field

I have problem with version-download protocol. Every time I start up the application using JWS an error ocurred:Missing version field in response from server when accessing resource: (http://localhost:8080/PzP_Test/front01.jar, 1.0)

Any ideas!?

Ok I resolved it by myself. I have problems with mapping in web.xml file.
But now I have another problem. My jnlp file is created dynamicly. Jsp page create it. When I lunch my app using test.jnlp everything is working fine but when I want to start app with test.jsp then webstart doesn't start and the message occures "Save file as"
Has someon got any idea on this?

Missing version field from server

While running the application from java webstart i am getting this error
Missing version field in response from server when accessing resource: (http://localhost:8080/test/log.jar, 4.5)
My jnlp file is like this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

</resources>
<application-desc main-class="com.Main">

</jnlp>
My main purpose is to set the version of the jar file and if the version is same it should not be downloaded again

To use the version based download protocol your resources on the server must follow a naming convention to enable the download servlet to check the file versions.
A description and simple examples are found here: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/javaws/developersguide/downloadservletguide.html

How to define maximum field width on an updatable report

I have an updatable report.
From a user's perspective, this is a form in my app. How can I define the maximum number of characters the user can enter into a field?
I tried entering the following into the report column's element attributes, but none of these worked:
width=10px
width:10px
max-width=10px
max-width:10px
I don't know why the Tabular Form Element section allows to define Element Width and Number of Rows, but not the maximum width.
Thanks
Boris

Hi Boris,
If your updateable report is created by using a wizard than its not.
You could use the apex_item.text api which allows for setting the max field width.
