Want in implement Java oracle Forms.

Hi,
I want to learn how to implement java in oracle form, and that to I want it using oracle forms builder and not using Jbuilder.
E.g. implementing Java Beans in oracle forms.
As I am a begineer in this field, please guilde me from where I should start and what I should read for this.
Thanks,
Ashish

If you talk about creating Java components for Forms, you can't avoid using a Java IDE - but Oracle has JDeveloper, and it's free! :) What you need is basic knowledge about Java and how Forms can interact with Java components, and the links from Francois should give you a good starting point for that.
You can also find a lot of inspiration of what you can do with Java in Forms at Francois' blog:

Hope this helps,

JAVA implementation Class in Forms 9i

I have a Form where i'm using the progressbarJPC from de Oracle Forms90 demo's.
To get this work I have to modify the Formsweb.cfg with progressbar.jar. That works.
In developer there's an entrie implementation Class on the bean where i have to write "oracle.forms.demos.ProgressBarPJC"
Thats also working. Now my question.
I develop on W2000 and deploy on Linux with AS9i.
To getting forms work on Linux i have to compile the code again.
On linux there are no folders containing the OracleForms demo's.
How can ik deploy that kind of classes on Linux?
Do I have to compile the source again on linux in de folder forms90/java. What to do with the implementation class "oracle.forms.demos.ProgressBarPJC" ?
Hugo Perfors

Hugo,
the Forms module can be compiled without having to compile oracle.forms.demos.ProgressBarPJC. Just have the implementation class reference in teh Forms module and use the same jar file.

Load: class oracle.forms.engine.Main not found Stuck at loading Java Applet

Hi there
I have recently installed App Server 10.1.2.0 on a new machine.
Copied all my forms to an appropriate directory. Set up formsweb.cfg to allow them to run and have attempted to run them.
Unfortunately I get stuck at the Loading Java Applet screen, and in the status bar at the bottom it says :
load: class oracle.forms.engine.Main not found
I have taken a look at the Java Console, and the 2 things that jump out at me are that it appears to be looking for a forms90 directory, which seems odd since I am using App Server 10.1.2.0.2 and Forms Builder 10.1.2.0.2 meaning it should be looking in a forms directory not forms90 directory shouldnt it ?
And also, it mentions class with no proxy, so on looking around the forums it has been suggested that put the proxy details into jinitiator, which I have done, but this has made no difference either.
Can anyone suggest anything else please ?
Java Console log follows.
Thanks a lot

Bad bind variable error in oracle forms 10g

i have a created a table in oracle database 10g
create table myimage(image_id number, image_name BLOB);
i want insert an image and retrieve an image through programing(don't want block level) in oracle forms 10g
without using java beans(and finely working in both windows XP2 and Solaries)
how can i do this please can anybody give me the source code to do this because i am new in oracle forms.
i need a immediate replay to this answer why because i have urgent requirement on this in my web erp project

You can use WEBUTIL to do so, but
without using java beans(and finely working in both windows XP2 and Solaries)WEBUTIL also contains javabean. I don't know why you have this restriction, i'd say you won't succeed without any java-bean.

New features I like Oracle to include in Oracle Forms

I believe Oracle Form is the best tool to develop Database Application in Oracle Database. The weakness I see in Oracle Forms 10g may be its deployment as Java Applet. Java Applets are to be downloaded in the client browser, that's why it's not lightweight as PHP/ ASP/JSP scripting technology. So as a true web application it is not really handy.
Oracle provides JDeveloper/ Apex to accomplish that. But JDeveloper is very complicated to understand and Apex is rigid and you have little freedom on your user interface design, you cannot design a page as freely as you do in Adobe Dreamweaver for PHP. We as Form developer want oracle to develop a new development tool with following features:
1. Language will be PL/SQL.
2. There will be simple drag and drop interface design.
3. It will generate HTML/JSP page so that it can be light weight.
4. Provide a wide range of packages to accomplish javascripts/ajax while using PL/SQL language. Developer will just know what to do and by what technology javascripts/ajax, and accordingly invoke packages from withing PL/SQL editors.
5. Will have good old simple look in Form Development (JDeveloper is so complex and Apex is so shy in revealing it's features) while having same even better inner strength of developments.
6. Will require no client side tool like jinitiator or jre
7. Better and easy or even no use of web_util package but still accomplish file/image/spreadsheet access

The Forms Builder Help is the best source of information. It has plenty of examples too, like this one I copied from the Help:
/* Find foreign library handle for
   a given library name */
BEGIN
   libhandle := ora_ffi.find_library
            ('mylib.dll');
END;

Oracle forms & reports support on oracle 10g lite

Currently our oracle forms & reports 6i application works on oracle 8i database with oracle 9i lite.
We upgraded our database to oracle 9i r2 and lite to 10gr2.
After publishing the application when i try to open the application the forms screen disappears for ever.
I wanted to know whether oracle forms and reports 6i is supported on
oracle 10g lite r2?
Thanks,
Ashok Kumar.G

No. Not only it isn't certified, but it is also impossible to run forms compiled with the 11g compiler with the 10g runtime. For 11g there is a install bundle for the developer suite / application server.
cheers

Search wildcard in Oracle forms

Hi ,
I want to search in Oracle forms to values containing the % charachter.
when using F11 and the % character Oracle returns all values, while I only want the query to returns the values containing the % character
How can I do this. In SQL you can do this using escape characters but in Oracle forms this doesn't seem to work?

Jan

Oracle Forms can read the DBF files ?

hi,
i have 2 PC : the first with sco-unix and a database d-base with files .DBF
and the second PC with windows xp pro and data base oracle
i want to know if Oracle Forms can read the DBF files from the first PC and load the data to oracle data base.
thank's

Lido,
If you can create an ODBC connector for your d-Base files you should be able to use ODBC to read the data from these files. The alternative would be to use TEXT_IO (Forms 6i/Client Server) or CLIENT_TEXT_IO (WebUtils) to read the .DBF files (as I recall, d-Base simply wrote a comma delimited data file). Using this method will require you to understand the layout of the .dbf file so you know which data element is which.
Which method you use depends on which version of Oracle Forms you are using and if your application is web deployed or Client/Server.

How use oracle forms with oracle database in a local computer network(client -server homogenious network)

Hello experts,
                     I am new in Oracle forms.I am using oracle forms 11g with weblogic server 10.3.5 and oracle database 11g at windows 7 platform.
I want to call my oracle forms(main login form) from different computers(windows7) connected in a local network.My oracle database is installed in a server computer.I am not talking about oracle forms hosting in internet.I want to deploy oracle forms in a local computer network connected via LAN cable or wi-fi.
thank You.

aaditya

In most cases you can copy the same entry found in the tnsnames.ora file used by the database. In the database home, the file can be found in \network\admin. Open the file and you should find something like this:
yourAlias =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.0.100)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
So in the above, you would need to set the alias (this can be anything you like), the IP address or hostname of the machine where the database is running, the port number used by the db listener, and the service name used by the db. Most of this will already be set for you if you are copying from the database tnsnames.ora. So you should be able to just copy and paste. More information about the tnsnames.ora file can be found in the db documentation:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/network.111/b28317/tnsnames.htm

How to enable tracing in Oracle Forms 10g

Hi Friends,
I am interested to trace my running oracle forms application. When I googled it, I got below useful information. But theory and practical has mismatch somewhere, I am not able to create the trace file(s).
**************************** Some Notes ****************************************************
How to Enable Tracing in Oracle Forms 10g
Enable Tracing from the url by adding the following to your forms url:
&record=forms&tracegroup=0-98,100-199 (note: item 99 causes some issues, so we are skipping it here. See the Oracle documenation for a description of what is being traced for each item.)
for example
[http://machine:port/forms/frmservlet?config=myConfig&record=forms&tracegroup=0-98,100-199]
You will get a trace file in the following location:
%ORACLE_HOME%\forms\trace\forms_xxx.trc where xxx is the forms session ID.
Open dos window and do the following:
set ORACLE_HOME=
set PATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\jdk\bin;%PATH%
set CLASSPATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\jdbc\lib\classes12.zip;%ORACLE_HOME%\forms\java\frmxlate.jar
java oracle.forms.diagnostics.Xlate datafile=%ORACLE_HOME%\forms\trace\forms_xxx.trc outputfile=%ORACLE_HOME%\forms\trace\html_xxx.html outputclass=WriteOutHTML
you will get a file html_xxx.html in your %ORACLE_HOME%\forms\trace directory.
I need information beyond this to make this practically successful.
Thanks in advance,
Amol Naik
