Oracle's Software Configuration Manager version 10.1.2.5 with forms version 10.1.2.3.0:
Is this what everybody is using to manage their forms development? If not, what are developers using for Forms 10g version control? I've installed this software. I'm using the Oracle XE database for this repository. At least for running through the tutorial to figure out how this is to work.
I have to say that I am frustrated that I cannot compare one version of a form to another version of the same fmb. I get a java null pointer exception. I have uninstalled the repository using RAU, then recreated it using the RAU. I'm using version control and defining a "large" repository type for more than 10 developers.
Is there a free software or tool for oracle reports version control? I need to maintain versions for Oracle reports and PL/SQL codes but not sure how to proceed.
1) A reverse engineering tool that I can point to an Oracle schema and get a "baseline" script to re-create that schema from scratch, with decently formatted DDL files (1 per object) neatly organized in a directory tree (by object type) and called in the correct order. Icing on the cake would be an option to pass the tool a list of tables containing static data and get DMLs to populate (insert) those tables as part of the script.
2) a diff tool that I can point to a pair of Oracle instances (source and target) containing a given schema and get a "delta" script to alter the target schema so that it becomes identical to the source schema. If data loss occurs on the target instance (i.e. drop a column) I would like to find a warning comment inserted in the script (e.g. "-- Attention: data migration DML needed here?"). Icing on the cake would be an option to pass the tool a list of tables containing static data and get DMLs to update (delete, update and insert) the data in the target tables to become identical to the contents in the source tables *without* deleting and re-inserting all rows (or dropping, recreating and repopulating the table).
3) I would like the above two tools (that, as you will have recognized, are basic to putting your database design under version control) to be open-source, with a command-line interface and a vibrant community backing them.
We are planning to upgrade a database from 9.2.0.8.0 to 10.2.0.4.0.We have a lot a PRO*C programs pre compiled using 9.2.0.8.0 (and most likely even 9.2.0.7.0) compiler.
if we could upgrade the database without having to re-compile all the programs.We have tested this approach against some of our programs. Most of them executed fine - but in 2 cases we are getting "ORA-01001 invalid cursor". I suspect, that the case is that Pre compiler version 9 is not supported against 10g databases - but I am not sure.
Would it be a better option to upgrade Pre compiler/client as the first step and the db as the second step (and would that be supported) ? We definitely don't want to upgrade both Pre compiler/Client and the Database in one goal - that would be too risky.
I am using Oracle 11g version, I wanted to check if a particular function is available in the earlier version of Oracle (Say 9i). Oracle optimizer to run the query only using the features available in the 9i version?
I have developed my PAYROLL application in forms 9i, which is successfully runnig at internet explorer version 6 but it is not running at internet explorer version 8 or later.
We are running forms 11g ( 11.1.1.3) in our production environment and we are having strange issue when we are deploying the new version of fmx on fusion middleware server ( Windows 2008). After copying/replacing the new fmx we are still running the OLDER version of form. It's happening randomly on different servers.
Currently i am using IE 6 for running my forms 10g, I like to know upto which IE Versions i can update so it must not affect my Oracle forms 10g running.
i like to update to IE 8, but it must not affect my forms runtime functionality!
We have Forms application created in Oracle Forms Builder version 9.0.4.0.19. We have done modification in some forms and few forms created using Oracle Forms Builder 10g version 10.1.2.0.2.
Now we need to convert those forms which are around 5 or 6 in number to Oracle Forms 9.
I have a multi record block . I need to implement a functionality where the user updates a field in the record but the form saves the previous version of the record in another table ..
I'd like to implement a treeview control with checkboxes in every node using Microsoft TreeView Control 6.0 in Forms 6i. I already did the following steps:
1. Download and register OCX (regsvr32 C:windowssystem32comctl32.ocx) 2. Draw OCX control on form. 3. Right click on OCX control and Insert Object "Microsoft TreeView Control 6.0" 4. Import OLE Library Interfaces "MSComctlLib.TreeCtrl.2" 5. Set Data Block Single Record to YES 6. Set OLE Class of Listview control to "MSComctlLib.TreeCtrl.2" 7. Rename treeview control to "ACX_TREE" and Data Block to "BLK_CONTROLS"
Now I need to populate the treeview adding code to the "WHEN_NEW_FORM_INSTANCE" Trigger, but I don't see how. how to do this and/or a place where I can find a working example?
I have created two control items like organization and location and both items contains lovs.here i have to make location lov is dependent on organization.one org contains multiple locations. how to make this change?
I developed one form which having four tabs , i want one button control for all of them , I have been created buttons control individually for each tab , there is problem with navigation , query and clear the form .
i want to use cursor to get data from db to "control block "(db item =no ) this data had where clause depend on item on other block
this my code :
declare cursor get_sol is select SOL_STEP,PROB_ID from MI_SOLUTION where PROB_ID=:MI_FORM_PROB.PROB_ID; begin go_block('control'); [code]......
when am using when_validate_item trigger error raise :
FRM-40737:Illegal restricted procedure next_record in when_validate_item
that's the trigger ? or how to solve ? in case of execute query in what trigger i will write the same code to get data in case of execute query by user .
In my form line level block contains 100 records.i will check the check box for line number 96 and 97. Then i will press save(I have written some logic here) button it will generate one number for selected check boxes. After generating this number cursor(control) should be on same line number 96 or 97.
I have two block....both are the control block.. in first block i select the date and in second block the data of that date is populated.but the data is populated using cursor in when-button-pressed trigger of that first block button.in cursor the data is selected and placed in field of detail block using into clause.... each field and one item of detail block is srno which is create in post-query of detail block using :sysyem.trigger_record.
Now i want after populated the detail block the data is sorted desc one of the field of the detail block..Can this possible using set_block_property() of block although the block is control block if yes where i should do this?
I have created two non base table text items(from date, to date) and if values are not entered from front end i.e. null then hadrcoded in pre_query trigger to default values.But even i enter values dynamically from front end and when ever i press fetch button ,it is taking default values i.e. it is not accepting values what i have entered.
I have created a data Bolck Manually.I had used select query to fetch records into the data block. There's and add button in the form to add more records to this block.
Now When i press add button and enter new records i want to ensure the Primary key i.e. the the new record entered does not repeat across the block. I cannot loop through and check as the number of records fetched is quite huge.
I am working on form builder 6i. I have a header block A(Multi record block), child block B. Both are non control blocks. My requirement is, if i put the cursor in any header record, i want to auto populate corresponding child record like in master child relation.
which trigger i need to write logic to auto populate the child record.
i have multi data block filed. and checkbox field which based on control block...My task is when i check checkbox only one field should enabled and my mouse goes to that field
My item field based on data block and checkbox based on control block,while i checked chkbox1 , only item31 on that current record should be enabled and i changed value only on that field
when i checked chkbox1 , my cursor goes to item31...not item32
I have a multi record control block (basically a text item displaying 6 records) where user enters values and I want to process the values using pre-insert trigger.
I want to read value in each record and then do some tasks using a pre-insert trigger before I commit the values. To navigate between the records I was using first_record, next_record, clear_record built-ins but it gives errors like "40737-illegalrestricted procedure next_record in pre-insert trigger".
