When new item instance + attribute value

Hi,
I'm trying to default context value based on trx_type
Here are the details:
Trigger Event: WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE
Trigger Object: TGW_HEADER.CTT_TYPE_NAME_MIR
Condition: :TGW_HEADER.CTT_TYPE_NAME_MIR = 'XYZ'
Processing Mode: Not in Enter-Query Mode
Context Level: Site
Select the Actions tab
Actions Seq: 10
Type: Property
Language: All
Object Type: Item
Target Object: TGW_HEADER.ATTRIBUTE_CATEGORY
Property Name: Value
Value: ='ABC'
But this personalization is not defaulting the attribute category value to 'ABC'.
Can some one please help me on this...
Thanks in advance!!!

Webutil crashes while calling Function in when-new-item-instance-trigger

Hello !
I use Oracle AS 10.1.2 and webutil 1.0.6 and Oracle Forms Developer Version 10.1.2.
When I call the webutilfunctions within a when-button-pressed or post-change trigger, everything works fine.
When I call the webutilfunctions within a when-new-item-instance-trigger i get an error message:
oracle.forms.webutil.file.FileFunctions bean not found.
CLIENT_TEXT_IO.fopen will not work
What are the reasons for this behavior ? How can I solve the problem ?
PLEASE HELP !!!!!!!!

I think that this is well explained in the webutil documentation(pdf).
You cannot use the functions in the initialisation phase of the form, including triggers like When-New-Form-Instance, When-New-Block-Instance,etc...
The workaround is to use a timer to wait the necessary time for the beans to instantiate themselves.

When-Mouse-Click does not fire if When-new-item-instance exists

We are using Forms 6i Patch 12.
The When-Mouse-Click trigger (at block level) is not getting fired when a When-new-item-instance trigger exists on a given item on which mouse is clicked.
We need to synchronize keyboard and mouse events such that if the validation on certain key items fails, the cursor should go to one of the specified items as per the validation rules.
The validation rules are different on leaving from different items. Complex validation rules require cursor to go to a different item than the current item on which the validation fires.
Since go_item cannot be used in when-validate-item, we are using a combination of key-next-item and when-mouse-click.
But, this strategy seems to fail if mouse is clicked over an item having a when-new-item-instance trigger.
Also, we need the When-mouse-click trigger to fire before When-new-item-instance.
Any pointers to solving the firing of trigger or strategy will be appreciated!
Regards,
Sanjiv

This solution we have tried and it works also.
However, we end up in another problem in the form. For overall picture, please see my latest post for "Forms Valid status" at Forms Valid status

New item instance not firing

Hi all
We are seeing a strange problem in forms 10g R2. the when-new-item-instance trigger is firing only for the first time ou click on the item. subsequent clicks on the item from an another item does not fire this trigger. This trigger was firing all the time whenever you navigate to an item in 6i. Hs the behavior changed,
This is urgent any help is appreciated.

Hi Grant
All the forms were initially created and run in AIX (6i patch 13).
We have migrated all these forms to 10g under Linux. The forms run on the users desktop which is XP. As a part of the upgrade we have recompiled all the forms.

Where's the WHEN-NEW-BLOCK-INSTANCE trigger gone?

Not a rehash of my famous UKOUG presentation but a genuine question.
If I start up a Form with ENTER_QUERY in the WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger then WHEN-NEW-BLOCK-INSTANCE never fires. I just get a WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE. This is true whether the query is executed or cancelled.
I have replicated this behaviour inb both Forms 4.5 and 9i Forms so I assumed this is standard behaviour and well-known by everybody but me. The question is: why is Forms designed like this? I can just about see why WHEN-NEW-BLOCK-INSTANCE might not fire in QUERY-MODE, even though WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE does, but why doesn't it fire after the query is executed or cancelled?
Cheers, APC

Interesting...
I am aware that the when-new triggers do not run in some cases. On the other hand, the post- triggers run over and over again, to the point that I just don't use them because any code put there executes too many times.
If you have several go_item or go_block triggers in a key trigger or when-button-pressed trigger, the when-new-item-instance trigger does not run each time you do a go_item. Instead, the when-new triggers ONLY run on the last item or block, just after my key-trigger code completes, and just before control returns to the user.
So it would seem natural that if you go_block in a when_new_form_instance trigger, and execute an Enter_Query command, then the when-new-block-instance would not run.
The fact that it does not run once you cancel the query just doesn't seem right, though.

Populate two poplist items on when-new-form-instance trigger

Hello!
I have a simple form with some text-items, datetime items, two poplist items and two buttons (exit and save to database).
Everything works well except the second poplist wont get populated. After wrote the code for the first i just wrote a similar one for the second poplist. Each poplist fetches its data from different tables. Nothing changed when i tried different list-item types (first worked, second didnt).
Here is the code in the when-new-form-instance trigger:
declare
     rg_query_sponsori varchar2(200) := 'select nume, sponsor_id from sponsori';
     rg_id_sponsori recordgroup;
     err_sponsori NUMBER:= 0;
rg_query_portari varchar2(200) := 'select nume, portar_id from portari';
     rg_id_portari recordgroup;
     err_portari NUMBER:= 0;
BEGIN
     rg_id_sponsori := create_group_from_query('recgrp1',rg_query_sponsori);
     err_sponsori := populate_group(rg_id_sponsori);
     clear_list('vizitatori.sponsor_id');
     populate_list('vizitatori.sponsor_id',rg_id_sponsori);
     rg_id_portari := create_group_from_query('recgrp2',rg_query_portari);
     err_portari := populate_group(rg_id_portari);
     clear_list('vizitatori.portar_id');
     populate_list('vizitatori.portar_id',rg_id_portari);
END;
Thx and have a nice weekend :)
Iulian

Try this by adding delete_group
declare
rg_query_sponsori varchar2(200) := 'select nume, sponsor_id from sponsori';
rg_id_sponsori recordgroup;
err_sponsori NUMBER:= 0;
rg_query_portari varchar2(200) := 'select nume, portar_id from portari';
rg_id_portari recordgroup;
err_portari NUMBER:= 0;
BEGIN
rg_id_sponsori := Find_Group('recgrp1');
if not id_null(rg_id_sponsori) then
delete_group('recgrp1');
end if;
rg_id_sponsori := create_group_from_query('recgrp1',rg_query_sponsori);
err_sponsori := populate_group(rg_id_sponsori);
clear_list('vizitatori.sponsor_id');
populate_list('vizitatori.sponsor_id',rg_id_sponsori);
rg_id_portari := Find_Group('recgrp2');
if not id_null(rg_id_portari) then
delete_group('recgrp2');
end if;
rg_id_portari := create_group_from_query('recgrp2',rg_query_portari);
err_portari := populate_group(rg_id_portari);
clear_list('vizitatori.portar_id');
populate_list('vizitatori.portar_id',rg_id_portari);
END;

FRM-40735: WHEN-NEW-BLOCK-INSTANCE trigger raised unhandled exception ORA-0

I have created two control blocks.In the second control block an item is getting data depending on the value of a particular item in the 1st control block.
I am fetching data for the item in 2nd block using WHEN-NEW-BLOCK-INSTANCE trigger in the 2nd block
It is giving the following error
FRM-40735: WHEN-NEW-BLOCK-INSTANCE trigger raised unhandled exception ORA-01403
When I am giving the following code, it is working
SELECT BM_MR_LCL_STD INTO :BLOCK2.ITEM5 FROM FABRIC_TYPE_MAST_DVLP WHERE FABRIC_TYPE = 'AT';
But when I am giving the below code, it is not working,
SELECT BM_MR_LCL_STD INTO :BLOCK2.ITEM5 FROM FABRIC_TYPE_MAST_DVLP WHERE FABRIC_TYPE = :BLOCK1.ITEM4;
Please Help.
Regards,

That means there were no rows in the table which matched the criteria in your query. You need to trap the no_data_found exception, eg
exception
when no_data_found then
:block2.item5 := null;
end;and if fabric_type is not unique then you'll need to trap the too_many_rows exception too.
I think for this you might be better off with an explicit cursor.

WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger does not fire

Hi,
Does anyone have any idea why code placed in the when-new-form-instance trigger appears to be ignored when the form is executed from one login but runs fine when executed from another? A breakpoint on the first executable line of code in the trigger confirms that the trigger is not being fired.
Regards,
Ian Dodds.

Hi again Duncan,
I was able to solve it once I ran the form with the Forms Runtime Diagnostics enabled. I had a table in my schema containing old data used to build menu items. This was causing runtime errors to occur during calls to SET_MENU_ITEM_PROPERTY that were not being propagated to the UI so I didn't know they were occuring.
The upshot was that the WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger was not firing. Once I corrected the data it worked a treat.
Thanks very much for pointing me towards FRD, it's the first time I've used it but it won't be the last.
Cheers,
Ian.

What can i down to overcome this?
Pls help !
Thanks and Regards

Hai,
The NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE Trigger will work only when the cursor moves to that record.
write in the POST-QUERY Trigger of the block.

When new record instance trigger at Fire Enter Query event is throwing erro

HI
I have the following code on when new record instance which is set to fire at Enter Query Mode
IF :SYSTEM.BLOCK_STATUS <> 'QUERY' THEN
rec_num:=Get_Block_Property( 'MASTER', CURRENT_RECORD);
GO_ITEM('DETAIL.ITEM_NAME');
CLEAR_BLOCK(NO_VALIDATE);
GO_BLOCK('MASTER');
GO_RECORD(rec_num);
END IF;
But this is throwing error when I am querying record on master block.
It says 'Function not allowed.Please see a list of keys or functions'
Thanks in advance.

hi,
GO_ITEM( ) procedure is resctricted procedure.It can not be used in Enter Query mode to navigate to an item in a different block.
You can check wheter rest of the procedures are Enter Query Mode -Yes/No thourgh forms help window.

WebUtil doesn't work when called from WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger

I need WEBUTIL_CLIENTINFO functions to know some information from the client, like IP, JavaVersion, Hostname, OS user, etc. This functions I call through WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE TRIGGER and this doesn't nor work. I obtain the next message and error:
oracle/forms/webutil/clientinfo/GetClientInfo.class not found. WEBUTIL_CLIENTINFO.GET_IP_ADDRESS.
But when I call this WebUtil functions through WHEN-WINDOW-ACTIVATED trigger or through a button it works. Why?. I need call WebUtils in the WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger!
Any help will be of great value.

Basically make a timer...
Do you have the wu_test_106.fmb file that comes with the webutil install?
If you look in the wnfi trigger you will see this...
declare
     fake_timer TIMER;
begin
     -- Purpose of the fake timer is the we cannot call webutil in this trigger since the
     -- beans have not yet been instantiated. If we put the code in a when-timer-expired-trigger
     -- it means that this timer will not start running until Forms has focus (and so the webutil
     -- beans will be instantiated and so call canbe made.
     fake_timer:= CREATE_TIMER('webutil',100,NO_REPEAT);
     --create_blob_table;
     null;
end;And in the form level when-timer-expired you will see this...
     :global.user_home := webutil_clientinfo.get_system_property('user.home');
     :OLE.FILENAME := :global.user_home||'\temp.doc';
     SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('builtins.text_io_item',PROMPT_TEXT,'Write to '||:global.user_home||'\helloworld.txt');
     SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('files.userdothome',PROMPT_TEXT,:global.user_home);

Populating a Pop List via WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE

Vendor provided a form that attempts to populate a pop list within a WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger. Unfortunately when the user enters the form there are no values in the list. User has access to the table (verified by running SQL of cursor in SQL*Plus). Here is the trigger:
BEGIN
G$_SET_INST_PROPERTY;
G$_CHECK_FAILURE;
G$_STARTUP;
G$_CHECK_FAILURE;
     DECLARE
     CURSOR SFTVDTYP_C IS
     SELECT SFTVDTYP_CODE,SFTVDTYP_DESC FROM SFTVDTYP ORDER BY SFTVDTYP_DESC;
     i number := 1;
     BEGIN
     Clear_list('SFDBCOND_DTYP_CODE');
     for SFTVDTYP_REC in SFTVDTYP_C loop
     Add_list_element ('SFDBCOND_DTYP_CODE', i, sftvdtyp_rec.sftvdtyp_desc, sftvdtyp_rec.sftvdtyp_code);
     i := i+1;
     end loop;
     Set_item_property ('SFDBCOND_DTYP_CODE', REQUIRED, PROPERTY_TRUE);
     :SFDBCOND.SFDBCOND_DTYP_CODE := get_list_element_value('SFDBCOND_DTYP_CODE', 1);
     SYNCHRONIZE;
     END;
END;
Vendor claims that other sites this is working perfectly. Any ideas what has gone wrong at our site?

seems like the select is not returning any values.
try to put a message inside the cursor-for-loop to see if how often it loops.

Cannot add new items to a value list in AW database

I have a database which I have been using for many years. One of the fields is a value list. I just went to add another item to the list, and no matter what I do, the Create button is grayed out. I have another value list in the same database that works fine.
There are currently 170 items in the value list that is causin the problem, but I didn't think that there was a limit to the number of items that can be is a value list. (At least there is nothing in the AW technical specifications to indicate thin. I duplicated the existing database, deleted about 20 items from the list, then saved the file, and reopened it, and still cannot add new items to that value list. Does anyone know what might be causing the problem?

Oops
I read too fast.
Here is a short script which may help.
Replace the pop-up item by a text one and edit the property myList in my script to fit your needs.
Select the field to fill and run the script.
Then choose an item in the displaid list. It will be pasted in the selected field.
This trick would give you to work with a "no limit" list of items.
-- [SCRIPT DB fillFieldFromAlist ]
Assuming that
the front document is a database one
and that a text field is selected,
run the script to select an item in a list
and paste it in the field.
