Webbean and HTML bean relationship

Hi
Assume we have this code:
<jsp:useBean class="oracle.jbo.html.databeans.ViewCurrentRecord" id="viewRecords" scope="request" >
<%
viewRecords.setUseRoundedCorners(false);
viewRecords.setShowRecordNumbers(true);
viewRecords.setReleaseApplicationResources(true);
viewRecords.setDisplayAttributes("HolId,HolName,HolAddress");
viewRecords.initialize(pageContext,"pulmonaryJSP_pulmonary_PulmonaryModule.voHospital");
viewRecords.render();
as an HTML code render() method generates a HTML table.
Now BEFORE rendering I want to add another row to this HTML table with programming.
that after that with calling render() method this extra row will be displayed.
My question is about this:
How can I get the HTML table renderer object that renders viewCurrentRecords web bean. may be its type must be oracle.jdeveloper.jsp.wb.TableControl
or may be I am wrong.
Would you please send your advises for this topic.

Thanks for your answer
In the <jbo:row with action="find" we need
assigning something to rowparam or rowkeyparam. As you see in the top of the module I have other web beans for browsing
and with navigator bar I am traversing that up and down in record set. I want to show extra vales with <job tags. therefore I must pass the current reecord that Currently I am n recordset, passing to <job:row.
I thought it can work with find="current"
but I tested it, it doesn't change the current record in web bean browser and always it is in first row, therfore it must be something in action="find"
Would you please advise me about that?
Thanks

Container Managed Persistence entity bean relationship fields

I want to ask something that until now still confuse. Did Relationship fields in Container Managed Persistence entity beans declare , inside Database table or only Persistence fields .
If Relationship fields not declare inside database table ,how if SQL calls the relationship fields between related entity bean.
did container handle this task.
example: I have 2 entity bean with CMP(Container Managed Persistence)version 2.0
call Player and Team. every entity bean have own relationship fields and persistence fields.
player has playerId(primary key),name,position,age persistence fields and teams is relationship fields.
team has teamId(primary key),name,city and players is relationship fields.
I know that all persistence fields is declare in own database table but how about relationship fields.
can you tellme, How SQL calls can access relationship fields if relatiosnship fields is not declare in database table.
I use J2EE RI SDK version 1.3
and deploytool .
thank's .

thank's for your reply .Now I have another problem
I use J2EE RI from java.sun .I try to follow example in j2eetutorial about CMP Example call RosterApp.ear .
I dont'change anything code inside RosterApp.ear but when I deploy and runclient command thereis syntax error :
java.rmi.ServerException: Remote exception occured in server thread :nested exception is java.rmi.ServerException :exception thrown from bean :nested exception is : java.ejb.EJBException :nested exception is :java.sql.SQLException :syntax error or access violation ,message from server: "you have an error in SQL syntax near "
"leagueBeanTable" WHERE "leagueId" = 'L1' at line 1
in example ,RosterApp.ear use Cloudscape database ,but I try to use Mysql database for RosterApp.ear ,is there any different syntax SQL from Cloudscape to Mysql .
if like that ,so I must edit first SQL calls from Cloudscape to MYSQL . I think because relationship fields is for entity beans only ,so how if mysql database want to access foreign key another table because foreign key isn't declare in databse table.
example : I have 3 entity bean call player, team, league .
1. PlayerEJB have persistence fields name, position, playerId(primary key), cmr fields is teams
2. TeamEJB have persistence fields name, city, teamId (primary key) , cmr fields is players and leagues .
3. LeagueEJB have persistence fields name ,sport, leagueId(primary key), cmr fields is teams
so table is
PlayerEJB <--->TeamEJB<--->LeagueEJB
Player have some finder method call findBySport(String Sport) .
because Sport is persistence fields for LeagueEJB
so PlayerEJB must traverse TeamEJB first before LeagueEJB
EJB QL : SELECT distinct object(p) FROM Player (p) IN (p.teams) AS t
WHERE t.league.sport = ?1
I know that Container will translates EJB QL to SQL calls ,but default is only for cloudscape database and I use for MYsql .
so can you helpme how to query method findBySport(String sport) to Mysql calls .
thereis no foreign key between table in database table there is only Relationship fields in entity bean.

How to convert the source code in JSP,HTML&BEANS into executable files?

Sir,
We are developing one s/w product in JSP,HTML&BEANS.Now we are in the implementation phase.During the time of Installation,without copying our source code in the customer's site I want to copy the executable files of the entire source codes? Is it possible in JSP,HTML&BEANS?

In theory you can do it even with JSP but the you will be unable to run it on the standard JSP engine. :-)
From other hand, all critical logic should be in the Java Beans or at least in custom tags but not in the JSP code. Then you can protect that code and leave JSP open because there is nothing to steal or break.

Differences between servlet and backing bean

Could anyone please tell me whether everywhere that servlet can be used, backing bean and JSF can be used too? Are JSF and backing beans the new alternatives for JSP and servlets? please clarify the relations between these concepts for me.
Thanks

Thank you. You mean backing beans can do every thing that servlets can do? Yes.
JSF pages can work with servlets? Strictly speaking, every JSF page gets passed through the FacesServlet which does all the task. The lifecycle, creating the FacesContext, putting the request parameters in backing beans, rendering the response, etcetera.
what are the advantages of servlet and the advantages of backing beans? what's the disadvantages? In general, which one is better?In context of JSF, you should be using backing beans, not Servlets. There is nothing what a Servlet can offer you as an advantage in the JSF context. It is simply not an option/alternative. You can't even call a Servlet (directly) using a JSF h:form. You, however, can access backing beans in any JSP or Servlet outside the JSF context.
Just carefully read the JSF specification or buy a JSF book and the picture will be clear.

How to get or show multiple record data pagewise using JSPBean and HTML

Hi ,
I am using JSP bean for getting the data from database and html toe present the data.
The problem is when the user inputs data
in the search field and clicks on Search button ,i need to get all matching rows fromw the database ,which i am already getting.
Now if i have got suppose 100 rows i need to show 6 recrods on each page the rest should be shown when the user clicks NEXT or PREV buttons.
example
Name: input data here
Description: input data here
SEARCH Button
Show here the first 6 records
PREV 1 2 3 4 5..... NEXT
The page will look somewhat like this.
So the rows will be shown just below the search fields .If i am getting more than 6 record i should show PREV and NEXT with the number for each page holding 6 records.
Have anybody worked on such thing can you help me out .
Thanks

Where to put the Bean class in a html- Bean- JSP setup

Hi,
The setup is simple, the front end is a html form, there is a Java Bean with set/get methods and finally a jsp which accesses the bean and prints the result.
The problem is that it cannot locate the Bean class. I have compiled the bean class and stored the .class file in webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes dir. The jsp and html files are located in the webapps/ROOT dir. Iam using tomcat 5.0.28, with ROOT context enabled. Is this because I need to set the CLASSPATH for Tomcat? Any pointers?
Thanks

No you don't need to set CLASSPATH.
You need to put your bean in a package.
As of java1.4, JSPs can not access beans that are in the default/unnamed pacakge.
package mypackage
public class MyClass
and then the class would compile to
WEB-INF/classes/mypackage/MyClass.class

PDF output does not refresh data in BI Publisher, XML and HTML do refresh

I just upgraded to BI Publisher 10.1.3.4.0 and I noticed that the PDF format of the reports does not reflect recent changes in data, while XML data and HTML output do reflect changes in data immediately.
I'm using BI Publisher to print APEX applications reports. When I change some data in APEX forms, I click again in the Print button and the data remains unchanged. I made some testing inside Oracle BI Publisher, and noticed that XML data and HTML output do reflect changes, but PDF output remains with the old data for some unknown amount of time. I cannot identify a method to force the PDF to refresh, just un-log and log in again several times until the data appears updated. This is serious because when users change data and print again, they expect the changes to be reflected in the new printable report, and may not notice that the data is the old version.
OS is Oracle Enterprise Linux.
Any help on this will be very welcome.

What is difference between Managed Bean and Backing Bean?

What is difference between Managed Bean and Backing Bean? Please guide me how to create them and when to use them?
Please post sample for both beans.

Hi,
managed beans and backing beans are quite the same in that the Java object is managed by the JavaServer Faces framework. Manage in this respect means instantiation. The difference is that backing beans contain component "binding" references, which managed beans usually don't. Do backing beans are page specific versions of managed beans.
Managed beans are configured either in the faces-config.xml file, or using ADF Faces and ADFc, in the adfc-config.xml file

EDGE and HTML dynamic text in a "box" with scroll bar

I'm new to EDGE, a win7pro master collection cs5.5 suite owner. I'm mainly in the Film/Video post production field (mostly AE, PPro, Pshop, IA) but have been branching into web design the last couple of years. I use Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Flash. While I'm a expert user with all the Film/video apps, I would say I only have intermediate ability with the web apps. While I understand a lot of programing logic bulding blocks I'm not a coder.
So since we're told "flash is dead", my interest in Edge is to try to do some of the things that I can currently do in flash in EDGE. I was excited when Edge first came out but lost interest when it became obvious that Adobe was not going to offer Edge and Muse to "suite owners" but only in their force feeding of the "Cloud". Better known as the "golden goose" for adobe stockholders and a never ending perpetual hole in the pocket for users. Anyway....
I spent the last couple of days doing some of the tuts and messing with the UI. It's matured a lot since I was here last.
I've been working on a flash site for a sports team where one of the pages is a player profile page where college recuriters and other interested parties can view recuriting relavent info/stats about players. This is how it works. While on the "Team" page a users clicks on a button labled "Player Profiles" . (Animation) A "page" flies in and unfurls from the upper right corner (3d page flips effect created in AE played by flash as a frame SEQ). Once it lands filling most of the center of the screen there is a bright flash. As the brightness fades we see the "page" is a bordered box with a BG image of a ball field(End). (Animation) from behind the border in fly small pictures (player head shots with name and jersey number). They stream in and form a circle like a wagon train and the team logo zooms up from infinity to the center of the circle(End). As the user mouses over a player's pic it zooms up a little and gets brighter (like mouseover image nav thumbs for a image slider). If the user clicks on a player's head shot it flips over and scales up to become a text box with a scrollbar. The content of the box is a mix of images, static and dynamic text fields populated from data in an "player info data base" XML file, and some hyperlinks. It's all kept updated dynamicaly with current stats, info and images from the XML file. There is also a "PDF" button that allows the user to open/save/print a PDF of the player's profile (the PDF's are static files for now but the choice of which pdf to retrive is dynamicaly supplied via the XML file.
So.... Is Edge now able to do something like this? Would it need to be a collection of small animations? could these be "assembled" and connected as an asset in dreamweaver ?
I thought I would approach this from the end (ie click on an image and display a box with dynamic TEXT fileds. ) since that is the most important part, ie displaying the dynamicaly updated profile info. Sooooo....
Can Edge display a scrolling text box with Images, static text, and html dynamic text in it??

The code is in composition ready. Click the filled {}

Re: [iPlanet-JATO] Tomcat 3.2 serving images and html?

First of all David you are faster responding to email than I am. Thanks.
We tried your scheme with no luck. You are using "ROOT" as your war file
name ROOT, correct? Are you sure the jsp would reference
"/images/MyProject/nppnback.gif"? Why is "MyProject" in there? Where is
the directory "images" defined to Tomcat? Is it a default?
Here's another try at explaining:
In my JSP I have;
<IMG SRC="/images/ef.gif" ALT=People Banner">
My application is in webapps/EformsAppWar
(jsps in EformsAppWar/EformsApp/eforms/*.jsp)
(classes in EformsAppWar/WEB-INF/classes)
so images are in webapps/EformsAppWar/images
and there is, indeed a ef.gif there.
However with no server.xml changes (everything default), Tomcat 3.2
gives a 404 in his log and states in the 404 message that context is
null (CTX < >) and ca't find /images/ef.gif + NULL.
By the way I just noticed that in Tomcat 3.1 I have the images directory
directly under webapps.

This works:
If the doc root is webapps\ROOT --
Using defaults...jsp's would be put in
webapps\ROOT\MyProjectApp\MyProject\*.jsp
and images would be put in webapps\ROOT\images\*.gif
Then in your jsp...use the following reference:
"/images/MyProject/nppnback.gif">
That will work just using defaults and not playing with any of the
config files...
ie. webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF gets updated as well (with required

A working method to load local PDF and HTML files on iOS

I had a lot of trouble getting this to work, and I'm hoping this post saves someone time. Some of the information that's been posted in other locations is either wrong, incomplete, or might only work on Android. By the time you read this message the information here may no longer be accurate, so here's the testing environment:
Window 7
Flash CS 5.5.0
AIR 2.7.0.19530, which was compiled on June 28, 2011
iPad 1, version 4.3.5 of iOS
Let's get started.
On iOS, you load external PDF and HTML files using the StageWebView class.
On Windows, StageWebView works but the HTMLLoader class is a better choice if you're creating a desktop app.
You can also load HTML files by reading in the file's text. The information in this post is only for loading external HTML files.
StageWebView will not load a file that's in File.applicationDirectory. All files bundled in your app are placed in File.applicationDirectory, which means you'll have to copy any external file you wish to load with StageWebView to another directory.
So where can you copy your file? File.applicationStorageDirectory won't work. File.documentsDirectory does work.
Several people have recommended copying to a temporary file using File.createTempFile(). This works, but there's a catch: it seems that, like Windows, StageWebView relies on a file's extension when determining how to load it. When you create a temporary file on iOS using File.createTempFile(), the file will have no extension (and on Windows, File.createTempFile() creates a file with the extension .tmp, which is equally problematic).
The solution to the file extension problem is to rename the temporary file by appending the original file's extension. AIR currently does not have a <file>.rename() function, so you'll have to do it using <tempFile>.moveTo().
Here's some code I've successfully tested several times on both iOS and Windows. The file is copied to the temp directory. The file's extension is restored by just slapping the original file name to the end of the temp file.
        private function loadExternalFile():void
            var webView = new StageWebView();
            webView.stage = this.stage;
            webView.viewPort = new Rectangle( 0, 0, 1024, 555 );
            // Works with either html or pdf files.
            // These are stored in the root of the application directory.
            var fileName:String = "euei.pdf";
            //var fileName:String = "euei.htm";
            var sourceFile = File.applicationDirectory.resolvePath( fileName );
            var workingFile = File.createTempFile();
            try
                sourceFile.copyTo( workingFile, true );
                // You have to rename the temp file
                var renamedTempFile:File = workingFile.resolvePath(workingFile.nativePath + fileName);
                workingFile.moveTo(renamedTempFile, true);
                webView.loadURL( renamedTempFile.url );
            catch (err:Error) { }

I tried this with Flash CS5.5 and AIR 4.0 SDK. Any pdf loaded simply fills the viewPort with black. Also tested with a png version of the pdf and that displayed just fine.
What's the purpose of copying to a temp work file? I found that webView.loadURL( sourceFile.url ); gave me the exact same results.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

How to read text from PDF and HTML

I have got solution to read text form .txt file but did'nt get code for PDF and HTML.
I dont want to convert PDF to txt.
Please help me ...

reading from a file is always the same. using the same strategy used for a .txt will allow you to read a .pdf file.
Offcourse in itself it will be useless becuase pdf files have a special internal structure.
html files are identical to txt files.
What are you trying to accomplisch with the files you are reading ?

I am in the process of expanding a database of chemistry journal articles. These materials are ideally acquired in two formats when both are available-- PDF and HTML. To oversimplify, PDFs are for the user to read, and derivatives of the HTML versions are for the computer to read. Both formats are, of course, readily recognized and indexed by Spotlight. Journal articles have two essential components with regards to a database: the topical content of the article itself, and the cited references to other scientific literature. While a PDF merely lists these references, the HTML version has, in addition, links to the cited items. Each link URL contains the digital object identifier (doi) for the item it points to. A doi is a unique string that points to one and only one object, and can be quite useful if rendered in a manner that enables indexing by Spotlight. Embedded URL's are, of course, ignored by Spotlight. As a result, HTML-formatted articles must be processed so that URL's are openly displayed as readable text before Spotlight will recognize them. Conversion to DOC format using MS Word, followed by conversion to RTF using Text Edit accomplishes this, but is quite labor intensive.
In the last few months, I have added about 3,500 articles to this collection, which means that any procedure for rendering URL's must be automated and able to process large batches of documents with minimal user oversight. This procedure needs to generate a separate file for each HTML document processed. Trials using Automator's "Get Specified Finder Items" and "Get Selected Finder Items", as well as "Ask For Finder Items" (along with "Get URLs From Web Pages") give unsatisfactory results. When provided with multiple input documents, these three commands generate output in which the URLs from multiple input items are merged into a single block, which yields a single file using "Create New Word Document" as the subsequent step. A one-to-one, input file to output file result can be obtained by processing one file at a time, but this requires manual selection of each item and one-at-a-time processing. What I need is a command that accepts multiple input documents, but processes them one at a time, generating a separate output for each file processed. Is there a way for Automator to do this?

Hi,
With the project all done, i'm preparing for the presentation. Managed to get my hands on a HD beamer for the night (Epason TW2000) and planning to do the presentation in HD.
That of course managed to bring up some problems. I posted a thread which i'll repost here . Sorry for the repost, i normally do not intend to do this, but since this thread is actually about the same thing, i'd like to ask the same question to you. The end version is in AfterEffects, but that actually doesn't alter the question. It's about export:
"I want to export my AE project of approx 30 min containing several HD files to a Blu Ray disc. The end goal is to project the video in HD quality using the Epson EMP-TW2000 projector. This projector is HD compatible.
To project the video I need to connect the beamer to a computer capable of playing a heavy HD file (1), OR burn the project to a BRD (2) and play it using a BRplayer.
I prefer option 2, so my question is: which would be the preferred export preset?
Project specs:
                    - 1920x1080 sq pix (16:9)
                    - 25 fps
                    - my imported video files (Prem.Pro sequences) are also 25 fps and are Progressive (!)
To export to a BRD compatible format, do i not encounter a big problem: my projectfiles are 25 fps and progressive, and I believe that the only Bluray preset dispaying 1920x1080 with 25 fps requests an INTERLACED video (I viewed the presets found on this forum, this thread)... There is also a Progr. format, BUT then you need 30 fps (29,...).
So, is there one dimension that can be changed without changing the content of the video, and if yes which one (either the interlacing or the fps).
I'm not very familiar with the whole Blu-ray thing, I hope that someone can help me out."
Please give it a look.
Thanks,
Jef
