XDK 9.0.2.0.C XSQL parameter visibility problem

Dear Steven,
I consider this as a serious bug:
When one set XSQL page or XSQL session page parameter it
become visible in page/request/session or otherwise only after
the following round trip to the client.
In other words, it is not present in the incoming XML to xslt to
process.
Thank you,
David

David,
I just re-tested with 9.0.2C and things are working as they
should. For example, the following XSQL page:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="test.xsl"?>
<page xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql" connection="demo">
<xsql:set-page-param name="page-param" value="1"/>
<xsql:set-session-param name="sess-param" value="2"/>
<xsql:set-stylesheet-param name="sheet-param" value="3"/>
<xsql:include-param name="page-param"/>
<xsql:include-param name="sess-param"/>
</page>referencing the following stylesheet:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:param name="sheet-param"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
    <html><body>
    <b><xsl:value-of select="$sheet-param"/></b>
    <b><xsl:value-of select="/page/sess-param"/></b>
    <b><xsl:value-of select="/page/page-param"/></b>
    </body></html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>shows an HTML page with the expected "321" the first request.
If you are talking about cookies, then you are correct that the
cookies you set this request are not visible until the next
request (which is the standard way cookies work), however, you
can use the new XSQL 9.0.2C feature to "see" the cookie value
immediately by adding the immediate="yes"] attribute to
your <xsql:set-cookie> action.
If I've misunderstood your problem, please post a testcase that
illustrates the issue. Thanks.

Xdk: calling java function with a CharSequence parameter

When using xdk version 10.1.0.2.0_production, you can not call a javamethod with a CharSequence parameter.
Sun documentation:
Interface CharSequence
All Known Implementing Classes:
CharBuffer, String, StringBuffer
This prevents us from calling a method like
java.util.regex.Pattern.matches(String, CharSequence)
Converting the parameter to a normal string would solve the problem.
Example to illustrate the issue:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xdt="http://www.w3.org/2005/02/xpath-datatypes" xmlns:Pattern="http://www.oracle.com/XSL/Transform/java/java.util.regex.Pattern">
     <xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:if test="Pattern:matches('...','123')">
<xsl:text>MATCH</xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
results in the following stacktrace:

Hi Grarup,
I took a stab at getting this to run and compile and this is what I came up with. Let me know if this helps at all.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace ConsoleApplication1
class Program
static void Main(string[] args)
Console.WriteLine("\"True\" or \"False\"?");
bool boolVal = bool.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
Functions f = new Functions();
TestStruct t = new TestStruct() { Value = boolVal };
f.Flip(ref t);
Console.WriteLine(string.Format("Flipped value = {0}: ", t.Value));
Console.ReadLine();
public struct TestStruct
public bool Value;
public class Functions
public void Flip(ref TestStruct testStruct)
testStruct.Value = !testStruct.Value;
Best of luck.

Is possible to run XDK 9i on AIX? Error XSQL-027 comes up!

Running a simple XSQL file with the command-line utility xsql
against the database (8.1.7 Standard) ends in:

Report 9i parameter form problem, is it a bug?

Hi all,
I am using Dev 9i IDS, rel. 9.0.2, running in windows 2000. I've been converting my forms and reports from previous versions to 9i, and I came across an issue with the report's parameter form.
First, I thought it could be a problem during the conversion , but to make sure I developed a new form and a new report straight in the 9i IDS suite, using Scott's DEPT table. The new form is simple having a button to call the new report which is based on the DEPT table and accepts an user's input for a dept. no.
The same problem occurs:
- in the form, if I set PARAMFORM=HTML then it could not open the report parameter form, hence the report could not run.
- if I set PARAMFORM=YES, then the report parameter form is displayed, then I can enter a value for the department number. BUT, when I clicked the Submit Query button the report failed, and I received the following error:
REP-52007: Parameter form format error.

I have no problem integrating others reports that don't have parameter form using run_report_object. And, I've checked and tried different ways of manipulating the parameter value using to_number in the report's where clause etc., it never worked.
I guess the only workaround is to create the parameter form in Forms builder. Is there other ways of doing it , or is it a bug of the 9i IDS suites that needs to be fixed?
- Thanks

Hi Frank,
There's a note published on Metalink, note 139546.1, showing a workaround to thi problem. but
- it is rather lengthy and confusing, may not be practical .
- it only applies to Forms and Reports 6i.
However, it shows that the problem comes from 2 items in the source code of the parameter form which is produced by the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT built-in:
1. <form method=post action=""> where action contains an empty string, it needs to have a valid entry, e.g.
<form method=post action="http://hostname:port/cgi/rwci60.exe?">
2. <input name="hidden_run_parameters" type=hidden value=""> where hidden value is also empty. It should contains all parameter values passed to the report parameter form, e.g.
<input name="hidden_run_parameters" type=hidden value="report%3test+destype%3Dcache+userid%Dscott.....">
And that is what I found, but I am reluctant to try it in 9i IDS, hoping Oracle has a better solution than that.
Tho.

SAP BW and Crystal Reports XI R2 Parameter list problem??

Hello Experts,
I facing a problem.
I have a crystal report based on a BW Query. It has one parameter called Country.
Eg:
Until now, in BW query country variable has the following values.
USA
JAPAN
GERMANY
Now, from this fiscal year we have the following values for country variable
USA
JAPAN
INDIA
GERMANY
UK
I am trying to edit the list of values for the country variable in crystal reports. It is not getting reflected in SAP BW. I also tried refreshing it several times.
THE VARIABLE IS A HIERARCHY VARIABLE.
Can any one Please help.!!
Regards
NMU
Edited by: Mohammad Usama on Oct 20, 2008 4:26 PM

You said that you are using version XI R2 SP2 (for BO Enterprise) - do you have any FixPacks on this codeline? (FP2.x)
Question: If YES to above, have you made use of the equivalent FixPack for Integration Kit? (known as "Partners Fix Pack 2.x ")
There are a few fixes in this area, I was thinking like:
ADAPT00716808 - When scheduling a report from SAP Business Information Warehouse (BW) that contains parameters from a hierarchy or a hierarchy node variable, the default values fail to be displayed from InfoView. >>
ADAPT00894127 - When users enter date parameters in the Calendar dialog box in SAP InfoView, the dates entered fail to appear in the corresponding field.
Good luck,
Henry

XML Publisher report in EBS - Parameter Form Problem

Hi,
XML Publisher is a very powerful tool for report developing.
In EBS, we have some efficient issue for showing the parameter form when submit a concurrent program.
If the report is D2K Report or PL/SQL script, when submit a request, it almost shows the parameter form immediately after entering the name of the concurrent program.
But if the report output is XML and generate report using XML Publisher, it takes about 1 minutes to show the parameter form.
Is there any setting should be tuning in our environment or some patches should be applied??
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Zhxiang.

Hi All,
Is there any suggestion, for the issue that t takes long time to show the parameter form?
Thanks in advance,
Zhxiang

Parameter passing problem to standard JSP iView

Hi,
I'm trying to launch a standard iView with some a parameter directly from the browser by calling the url http://<server>/<iview>?<param>=<value>
The iView ID is com.sap.pct.hcm.ecmmain.approval and by looking at its details from the content catalog I saw there was a property called CREVI. I would like to fill this in but the iview doesn't respond to the URL params at all. Setting them staticly by editing the iView works perfect.
I have also checked that the "Parameters to pass from Page Request" property includes * and excludes some other properties than the one I'm testing.
I thought this was going to be simple but can't just make it work..I guess I'm missing something basic or the property can't be used? Any ideas?
Thanks,
Mikko

Hi Mikko,
We have found inconsistencies with regards to parameter passing in the URL, sometimes they are read and sometimes not. I suggest that you try to change the order of the parameters as this can affect if its read. I also believe other parameters can interfere whether or not it is read so try various scenarios.
Cheers,
John

Parameter form problems w/reports server

I'm in the process of trying to make some reports from a forms-
based application available on an intranet via reports server.
If I call the reports without a parameter form (just take the
default parameter values) they work fine, but as soon as I put
in a 'Paramform=YES' I start running into problems.
The entries in cgicmd.dat are in this form:
reptname: server=servername report=reptname.rdf
userid=user/pw@db_name destype=cache desformat=PDF paramform=YES
When I submit the parameter form, no matter what set of values,
I get this error:
Oracle Reports Server CGI - Key "" is unrecognized. Possible
causes: bad URL syntax; key in URL was not found in the key map
file.
Also, on some forms that should have drop-down list boxes, it's
instead displaying a blank text field followed by a long string
of values as plain text below it.

hello,
sounds like an issue we had in the early versions of 6i. i would suggest you upgrade to the latest patch.

Sql parameter substitution problems

Hi,
I am having problems with the sql parameter substitution. I have a query that
looks like this:
select name,value from table where name in ('name1','name2');
I have tried building a string that equals "'name1','name2'" and passing it as
a parameter to sql entering the javaDoc comments like:
select name,value from table where name in ({nameString})
The problem is that when it is substituted and set to the database it looks like
this:
select name,value from table where name in ('\'name1\',\'name2\'');
This will not work. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this using a
database control. Basically I'm looking for the ability to create dynamic sql
statements.
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
James

Anurag,
Thanks for the reply. I don't think that this solves my problem though. I will
never know how many strings to pass. It's all based on what the user wants, they
could ask for 2, 20, or any other number of names. It sounds like using a Database
control is not really possible for this situation. What do you think? Any chance
of this making into workshop in the future or in these situations is creating
an EJB the only way to go?
Thanks again.

James Chamberlain

Hi James,
This result is same as what you will get on executing the following prepared
statement:
conn.prepareStatement("select empid from empdemo where name in (?)");
pstmt.setString(1,"'Person 1','Person 2','Person 3'");
pstmt3.execute();
Workshop's DBControl internally uses a PreparedStatement, hence you would
obtain the same result.
To get it working, you will need to pass in the 3 strings separately
as
below:
conn.prepareStatement("select empid from empdemo where name in
pstmt.setString(1,"Person 1");
pstmt.setString(1,"Person 2");
pstmt.setString(1,"Person 3");
Please do let me know if you have further queries regarding the issue.

Custom KM report - Parameter visibility.

Hi SDNers,
I have created a custom KM report. In the Parameters section I have a Region parameter as a dropwdown box with values Global and Country. I have another parameter called Countries which is a dropdown containing the list of countries.
My requirement is that if the user selects the Global option of the Region dropdown then the Countries dropdown box should be disabled/hidden.
Is there any solution available to hide/unhide parameters based on a previously selected value ?
Regards,
Melwyn.

Any updates ?

URGENT: Parameter Passing Problem

In Forms 6i I am sucessfully passing parameters from one form to another. The problem is I want the receiving form to execute the query at startup. I cant run execute_query; unless the form is in enter_query mode. In a trigger execute_query cannot be run in Enter_Query mode. So I am stumped. Ideally I wanted to try:-
-- Initailise Block Items with Parameters --
Enter_Query;
:interview.Position_ID := :PARAMETER.p_Position_ID;
:interview.Candidate_ID := :PARAMETER.p_Candidate_ID;
Execute_Query;
Obviously the reasons above stop me doing the above example.
Please Help

Hello
This example is base on the dept table.
Please try this
trigger ->WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE
:GLOBAL.my_var := 10;
trigger ---> PRE-QUERY
SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY('emp', DEFAULT_WHERE, 'DEPTNO= ' ||:GLOBAL.my_var);
it works fine in my little example put the trigger on Forms level.
Best regards Patrick.

OWB embeded process flow - parameter binding problem

I've installed and Oracle 10g Database, after the database installation I added the Oracle Workflow server software. To complete the installation I ran the wfca.
Later I get to define a process flow in OWB (cheesy) and the process flow seems to be working well (I've done all the registrations necesary also ), but when I am trying to do the parameter binding is not working. I do get the window prompt for the parameter and I enter the date parameter ( I tried different formats like 'YYYY/MM/DD' 'dd-mon-yyyy'), but after I check the runtime in the web browser the parameter is not pass to next process. I tried many things for the last week but I cannot get it to pass the parameter from one process to another.
Any ideas,
HELP !!!!!

did u manage to resolve this issue? we are facing the same problem.

Making parameter visible on report

I have a subSequence that returns an ASCII string parameter called Msg. Last Friday I checked a box somewhere that caused it to be displayed on the report, but I have slept since then and therefore have forgotten where that check box is located. It would be OK for it to be displayed except it comes out as one line with backslash characters in it such as '\r'instead of multiple lines. I found that if I copied it to Step.Result.ReportText it displays correctly. So 2 questions:
1) Where is the checkbox that causes a parameter to display on a report?
2) Can parameters that get displayed on a report have CRLF characters in them?
Thanks,
jvh

Hello jvh,
This has been reported as a bug in TestStand. We have noticed that there is different behavior depending on if you use it in the report text or additional results. There is also different behavior if the slash code you use is \n instead of \r. Using \n will work in the parameters but \r does not. While the opposite is true for the ReportText. Let me know if you have any other questions about this and have a great day!

Call library with struct as parameter - several problems

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to send a MIDI sysex message to a midi device through winmm.dll using MidiOutLongMsg. I have trouble figuring out how to pass the parameters right.
I need to call three functions (midiOutPrepareHeader, midiOutLongMsg, midiOutUnprepareHeader), all of them having the same form
MMRESULT midiOutPrepareHeader(
HMIDIOUT hmo,
LPMIDIHDR lpMidiOutHdr,
UINT cbMidiOutHdr
where HMIDIOUT hmo is a handle that I have already. Troubling me are the other two parameters. cbMidiOutHdr is the size (in bytes) of the struct lpMidiOutHdr. This is a struct of the form
typedef struct {
LPSTR lpData;
DWORD dwBufferLength;
DWORD dwBytesRecorded;
DWORD_PTR dwUser;
DWORD dwFlags;
struct midihdr_tag far * lpNext;
DWORD_PTR reserved;
DWORD dwOffset;
DWORD_PTR dwReserved[4];
} MIDIHDR;
(Struct: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms711592.aspx
PrepareHeader http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms711634.aspx
SendMessage http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms711629.aspx
UnprepareHeader http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms711641.aspx)
[Note: The full code for what I want to do can be found here http://www.borg.com/~jglatt/tech/lowmidi.htm (section "outputting system exclusive MIDI messages) - basically I need a translation of this code to LabView.]
The following are my problems:
a) How do I emulate a struct in LabView? (other threads suggest that this is done by clusters)
b) How do I pass a pointer to a struct (cluster?) to a DLL?
c) If I can use a cluster for this struct, how do I represent the LPSTR lpData in the cluster, i.e., a pointer to my data?
d) how do I get the struct size for cbMidiOutHdr?
This is how far I got, lots of it with the help of several threads in this forum:
a) use a LabView cluster
b) use "adapt to type" in the dll call (couldn't get this to work)
c) I use a type cast on my string in the hope that what it returns is the register address (and I'm probably superwrong here)
d) my cluster consists of 9 elements of 4 byte datatypes, so I just use 36 for cbMidiOutHdr
The dll seems to be happy with the way I pass the cluster - I get error codes of 0 in both the PrepareHeader and UnprepareHeader functions. However, sending doesn't work (error code 7). Guessing that the type cast returns a pointer, I have also cast the cluster to an Int32 and passed that parameter as pointer to numeric value. Interestingly, the PrepareHeader and UnprepareHeader functions are still happy, but I get a different error code from the sending (code 11)
Most of what I've done so far is guesswork, and I'm out of guesses now. I've attached the code to this post (it uses VIs from the NI MIDI example library ftp://ftp.ni.com/pub/devzone/epd/midi-example.llb ). I'd appreciate any help with this. Thanks!

First off, this problem doesn't have anything to do with control references; those have meaning only inside of the LabView environment.
My first suggestion is to look for a higher-level library that will do whatever MIDI function you are trying to call. If you can find an ActiveX or .NET object that will control the MIDI subsystem, I recommend that you use it instead since it will be a lot easier.
If calling the DLL directly is the best option (and calling DLLs is absolutely the way to go when you need high performance) then you need to understand how LabView passes data to library functions. That is described here:
http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361D-01/lvexcodeconcepts/configuring_the_clf_node/
As you can see there are a lot of ways to pass data, but they boil down to this: LabView can pass, via various levels of dereferencing, a pointer to some [mostly] flat data. Things are easiest when your DLL mimics LabView's own data storage methods. For example, wiring a cluster into a node set with Adapt to Type passes a handle (struct**, pointer to pointer to [mostly] flat data). So if you are writing your own DLL, it's pretty easy to write something that works nicely with LabView data (e.g., strings with 4-byte length headers, self-describing arrays) and in fact the result is cleaner looking than its "pure C" variant because of the self-describing arrays and string length prefixes. (I say "mostly" flat because LabView clusters with variable-length elements aren't stored in a flat format.)
When it comes to matching someone else's API things get harder, and in this case you are out of luck; you are going to have to write a LabView-callable wrapper function in C because LabView can't mimic the exact data structure needed. The problem is not the struct; there is a sneaky way to pass a pointer (vs a handle) to a struct, which is to do this:
Generate a cluster in LabView representing the struct (atomic numeric data only! no strings arrays etc!)
Flatten to string using native byte order.
Convert string to byte array.
Configure the call library function note to accept a pointer to an unsigned byte array. (NOT a C-string as suggested at the bottom of the page in the link above; your data may have internal 0x00s, and it certainly doesn't need an extra 0x00 at the end!)
The reason this works is that a pointer is just an address; as long as all the right bytes are in memory in the right order starting at that address, all is well. The DLL doesn't know that LabView thinks it is passing a pointer to an array of bytes, it just gets the pointer to the first byte and it reads and interprets those bytes according to its own struct def. Reverse the process cooming back from the DLL (convert byte array to string, unflatten from string against the LV cluster.) This method will work for any flat struct.
In LabView 8.5 there may be a less bogus way of doing this, which is to pass the cluster in with Adapt to Type and select "Array Data Pointer" as the format. This is new and I haven't tried it.
But in your case, you want to point to a struct that contains a pointer to a string plus some numeric data and another pointer, and this you can't do directly. LabView does not expose the location of a string to you anywhere outside the Call Library Function node, so there's no way to "find the pointer" to a LabView string from outside the DLL. What you need to do in this case is write a wrapper function in C that takes your LabView data. Only then will LabView "tell you where the bytes are" and promise not to fiddle with them until the library call is complete. Once you are in C-land, you can throw pointers around to your heart's content. As long as you do it all perfectly, all will be well. (If you write one byte too many on output, boom! :-)
There are a few ways to do this. You could make a cluster that has meaning in LabView, e.g. replace lpData with a LabView string, then pass the cluster in to your wrapper function set to "Adapt to Type"; that will pass a handle to the cluster. You can generate the .c file from the Call Lib Fuction, and it will outline where the data is.
Complications: In this case it's your job to convert the handle to the labview string (which has 4 bytes of length as a prefix and no trailing 0x00) to a C-string by malloc()'ing a new buffer and memcopying the string out. There might be something in the LV CIN tools that does this, I'm not sure. Make sure you release the new string after the MIDI call.
The lazy route (which is what I would do) is pass the string as the first arg and all of the numeric stuff as the second arg, leaving the space for lpData as you have now. (I don't know what struct "midihdr_tag" is, but if that's not something you were passed in a previous call, you'll need to add a third argument for that cluster and treat it similarly.) Then you can tell LabView that it should pass the string arg as a C-string pointer. Inside your wrapper, extract the pointers and stuff them into the data structure as needed. Dereference once (to go from handle to pointer) and make the MIDI call. To be clean, put everything back where it was before in the cluster; in particular don't believe you can pass out lpData* and do whatever you want with it in LabView; LabView will release/change that address as soon as you leave the output string unwired or do anything to it (e.g. concatenate.) You'll be creating a new string buffer and a new pointer on your next MIDI call.
All of this complication is a result of a) LabView's hiding the details of memory allocation/deallocation from you and b) LabView's internal data structures being a bit different from C conventions (e.g. LabView strings vs. C strings). The second means that even when LabView is using non-flat data structures (e.g. cluster containing an array), you can't just blindly pass them along to a C function and expect it to work right. It would be nice if NI would write a little mini-compiler into the Call Library Function that would do what our wrapper function is going to do, but that's probably a fairly significant project.
Still, each function wrapper is only going to have about 10 lines of C. You can put wrappers for all the MIDI functions you want to call into a single DLL, then ship that DLL with your app.
(Now you see why I suggested you look for an ActiveX MIDI control!)
