  Have removed and unzipped the installation once again without changing the error.

  After that, I started with another user on my computer, it the error does not occur.

  Is there a system folder to remove the configuration of my personal like jdeveloper and sql developer?

  Hi Torsten,

  Thanks for reporting the problem. I logged a bug.

  You can view together as "list of system types" directory to "preference > Data Modeler"-probably no longer exists. I guess that the setting for this directory is empty when you start SQL Dev as a different user.

• How to remove an XML data model in data definition screen

  Hello
  
  Question: I downloaded the data definition file in the data model.
  How to remove it.
  
  What means each file type?
  XML Schema
  Data model

  I have an XML file and a XSL file. I need to have an output in XML format.
  
  So I installed my XML file in the data definition of data model.

  Question: I downloaded the data definition file in the data model.
  How to remove it.

  You can not remove it, but you can date deadline there.

  What means each file type?
  XML Schema
  Data model
  Preview of a file
  Breaking control file

  This is explained in the manual 'Oracle XML Publisher Administration and the Developer Guide Release 12' - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B34956_01/current/acrobat/120xdoig.pdf

  I have an XML file and a XSL file. I need to have an output in XML format.

  So I installed my XML file in the data definition of data model.
  And the XSL file in the templates.

  Am I wrong?

  Good - See Chapter 2, "Creating the model" and Chapter 5 "models and chapter data ' in the same doc referenced above for more details.

  Thank you

• Data model - SQL query

  Hello world
  
  I hope someone can point me in the right direction.
  
  I have the SQL code following in the type of SQL query data model.
  
  Select * from ap_invoices
  
  The following select statement is not to return all the rows in the view, but the fact of sqlplus.
  
  I have setup the EBS security model uses BEEP 10.1.3.4.1.
  
  
  What I do wrong, is there some setting I'm missing?
  
  Do I need to use a different security model to BEEP?
  
  Help, please
  Thank you.

  Hello

  AP_INVOICES is a view as you know, sound based on the ORG_ID set when you select from it. IM thinking that when you use just select * from AP_INVOICES at RANDOM. Its not abreast of your org id and its is not defining for you when you run a query, so its not rehired data. Two options:

  1. use a data model and in the pre-reading trigger set the context of the org. As you may be in an Oracle report. Data models are very powerful and offer everything that OReports done in EBS incl. triggers flex extensions

  2 use the AP_INVOICES_ALL table and set the org id in the query where clause.

  Both approaches need so that you know the id org that you want to set. The integration of the security that you won't it's to say it does not pass it when the user opens a session. I suppose you have a report folder for every responsibility you could hardcode the org id in the reports in a given folder. Or you can add it as a parameter to the user to fill out report.
  Integration level just does not quite go enough away for the time to manage the org and, therefore, the views of the org.

  hope this is clear

  Prasad,

  What is your version of JDev? And what technology do you use to model? BC4J? Can you try to change the format of the attribute in the object view? Say with the type of Simple date format and format "mm/dd/yyyy".

• Type of object in the physical model

  Hello

  We try to get a complete reference level for the database for deployment, but lack us the 'Types' in the physical model.

  (1) Generate DDL is not creating scripts for "CREATE TYPE" instruction to create the specification of a object type.

  (2) timing of the model with the data dictionary lists recently added external tables

  Thanks in advance

  Zafar

  Hi zak,.

  (1) Generate DDL is not creating scripts for "CREATE TYPE" instruction to create the specification of object type.

  Statements to CREATE or REPLACE TYPE should be generated for structured Types and collection Types in your model.

  Are your structured Types and the Types of Collection selected on the tabs in the Options of the generation of DDL DDL generation phase?

  (2) timing of the model with the data dictionary lists recently added external tables

  Are they newly added in the database or newly added in your model?

  Note that synchronize the model with the data dictionary does not detect the new objects added to the database.  You will need to do a data dictionary import to import additional objects.

  Support of external Tables has been extended in version 4.0.2.840 of the Data Modeler.  They can now be created in the form of Tables in the relational model, and appropriate external table properties can be set in the properties of physical model for the Table.

  If they are created in this way, then synchronize the dictionary of data with the model should identify as newly added in the model.

• How to change the type of object?

  I have an object type, as shown below:
  
  Here are the object and its type
  
  create or replace type test_object1 as an object
  (
  val1 varchar2 (50).
  val2 varchar2 (50).
  VARCHAR2 (50) val3
  );
  
  create or replace type test_type1 is table of the test_object1;
  
  
  Now I want to change the type of object. I want to increase the size of val1 to varchar2 (100).
  
  Any body could help for the alter script.
  
  Thank you
  Lavan

  >
  SQL > alter type test_object1 change attribute (varchar2 (100)) val1;
  >
  Which won't work OPs example. Your example does not include the second type of object that depends on the first type.

  You cannot change the underlying type unless you use the CASCADe or INVALIDATE option.
  >
  change the type of test_object1 change attribute (val1 varchar2 (100)) waterfall;
  >
  See the CASCADE clause in the link provided by Osame
  >
  CASCADE clause

  Specify the CASCADE clause if you want to propagate the type change to the tables and dependent types. Oracle database abandons the statement if errors are found in the dependent types or tables, unless you also specify the FORCE.

  If you change the property of the type between FINAL and NON-FINAL, you must specify this clause to convert data in the tables and dependent columns. Please refer to [NOT] FINAL.

• Physical channel selected does not support the type of output required by virtual channel

  I use a box USB-6251.  Inside of MAX, I can set the device to Dev1 / ao1 sine wave generation and if he have output a sine wave.  When I use DAQmx DAQmxCreateAOFuncGenChan function I get error: selected physical channel does not support the type of output required by virtual channel.  The pilot DAQmx does FuncGen on the box USB-6251 or MAX out a set of tensions?

  Hi Paul,.

  Welcome to the Forums EITHER!  The DAQmxCreateAOFuncGenChan is supported only on products Elvis II.  For other devices, including the 6251, you must use the ordinary DAQmxCreateAOVoltageChan and create your own data buffer.  I would recommend looking in the following example:

  Start > all programs > National Instruments > NOR-DAQ > textual Code > ANSI C examples...

  Analog on > generate voltage > Cont Gen Volt Wfm - Int Clk

  In MAX the Sinewave output is used as a test signal - in this case MAX is a period of the wave sine values to write to the buffer and generate these data.  Again, you can produce a sine wave (or any other function) using the AOVoltageChan, but the AOFunctionGenChan is used only with Elvis II.  Just generate data points for the sine wave that will produce DAQ hardware.

• remove/delete objects without data

  Hello

  I have a few custom agents who create objects of data during execution by reading the agent properties where I specify the name of the data object. The agent has then creates a new data object and send the metric data (as defined in the XML of topology). It all works very well.

  The problem arises when a data object is no longer needed and so removed the agent properties. The object node of data remains in the data Explorer and the values for the metric is illustrated by n/a in a graph or a table because the agent not call more all data of that specific object.

  Is there a way to delete these objects that no longer get / submitting data.

  Thanks in advance

• Exception of the UI by clicking provisioned resource... Houston-25003: LDAPUserForm1UD_LDAP_GRPVO object of type View object is not found

  Hi all

  Under the tab accounts for a user, whenever I click on the resource brought online, I get the following error on the user interface.

  Messages for this page are listed below.

  Houston-25003: LDAPUserForm1VO object of type View object is not found. Houston-25003: LDAPUserForm1UD_LDAP_GRPVO object of type View object is not found. oracle.jbo.NoObjException: Houston-25003: LDAPUserForm1UD_LDAP_GRPVO object of type View object is not found. Localized message is not available.  Error returned is: oracle.jbo.NoObjException: Houston-25003: LDAPUserForm1UD_LDAP_GRPVO object of type View object is not found.

  I understand that LDAPUserForm1UD_LDAP_GRPVO is the name of the child form to the resource of the LDAP user. While they inspected the child form, I find this design console.

  
  

  LDAPUserForm1VO is the form created for the LDAP instance. SDM export shows that this exists in the location "oracle\iam\ui\runtime\form\view\pages\mdssys\cust\site\site\LDAPUserForm1CreateForm.jsff.xml".

  
  

  In addition, if I try to create a new form for this Instance of the Application, it fails with the exception:

  
  

  • oracle.jbo.NoDefException: Houston-25002: definition of the type of the view definition sessiondef.oracle.iam.ui.runtime.form.model.LDAPUserVersion6.view.LDAPUserVersion6UD_LDAP_ROLVO is not found.

  
  

  
  

  While I can see the error, I'm not able to find a solution to what for what is absent and where!

  Clues from anyone, which was faced with this or at least help troubleshooting would be great.

  -Thank you,

  Def-ender

  If your sandboxes have the elements of form generation on the side of the administration of the system, then most likely you have replaced a sandbox created after the publication by a prior created sandbox which does not contain the information from the form in the file CatalogAM.xml. I think that's the name. To oracle support site, there are best practices sandbox offline that you can search. I'm restoring your mds changes and then recreate these forms and publish every sandbox in order before new forms are created.

• Error thrown while assinging TYPE of OBJECT value

  Hi Oracle Experts:
  I create an Oracle OBJECT, this object contain only a single variable and I created a function that is back of the object (date system), but while I respected this procedure I threw the error message as ORA-06530: composite uninitialized reference .
  
  can someone tell me how can I use the object variable in the statement select in the clause .
  
  
  Below, I've pasted my code.
  
  
  CREATE or REPLACE TYPE str_batch IS OBJECT
  (
  sys_date DATE
  );

  Only, you have specified the type of the variable. You must initialize if before using it.

  CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE str_batch IS OBJECT
  (
     d date;
  )
  
  declare
     x str_batch := /* here -> */ new str_batch(null); /* <- here */
  begin

• With the help of a user defined type as a return type of function with a type of object

  Hi, I created my own data type of table I want to use as data type back to a member function of an object type that I created.
  
  I work in an environment of 10g.
  
  The code I used looks like this:
  
  create or replace
  Dim p As Package as
  
  type p_rec is (number of v1);
  type p_tab is table of the p_rec;
  
  end p;
  /
  
  CREATE or REPLACE TYPE p_ot () AS OBJECT
  
  / * some statements * /.
  
  NO DEFINITIVE MEMBER FUNCTION p.p_tab RETURN foo
  
  );
  /
  
  
  When I try to compile p_ot I get an error: Error (5.40): PLS-00201: identifier 'P.P_TAB' must be declared.
  
  I don't know the syntax is correct so I must be missing something, amy hepl would be great.
  
  See you soon

  You can define types of objects

  create type p_rec as object ( v1 number );
  create type p_tab as table of p_rec;
  

  They can be used inside the package (p) in your example) as well as defined in the package.
  In this case, there will be no problems with create type

  CREATE TYPE p_ot AS OBJECT (
  
  /* some declarations*/
  
  NOT FINAL MEMBER FUNCTION foo RETURN p_tab
  );

  Sorry!.
  Actually, I meant
  

  I thought as well.

  Typos can be expensive however. As a probe of NASA Mars in 99, which was lost due to a simple mathematical error - a confusion between English and metric units. ;-)

  Or screw up a server in reason to use a Unix fork() where the client process think that it is the parent and the beginning more children who believe they are also parents of spawning... (one of my mistakes of kewlest never) :-)

• RMAN supports two types of backups...

  [http://www.amazon.com/Oracle-Database-RMAN-Backup-Recovery/dp/0072263172#reader_0072263172]
  
  This question is related to the book "Oracle Database 10g RMAN Backup & Recovery" by Matthew Hart and Robert G Freeman on page 6.
  
  Please see the attachment. It says 'RMAN supports two types of backups.
  
  Stop the database instance for cold backup and copy the necessary files using OS commands.
  
  So, what is the meaning of say RMAN supports the backup of cold. We must not RMAN do cold back.
  
  Context in which the author said that the above sentence.
  
  Thank you
  Smith

  If you're doing a cold backup by RMAN (which is done with the database in MOUNT State), the advantage is that RMAN updates its repository / controlfile with information about the backup that was made.
  As a result, RMAN can be used to identify and restore the backup.

  (Of course, if the backup is a BACKUPSET, then you must RMAN to restore the backup, while a backup as COPY DATA file can also be restored using OS commands).

• map a java object to data from multiple data sources

  We have the requirement that the attributes in a domain class can come from data from multiple data sources. Is TopLink supports this type of mapping? Is it possible to do this mapping in the workbench?
  
  Thank you very much!
  
  Ming-Wen

  TopLink supports a feature of SessionBroker. This allows classes in the same session to come from different sources of data and for the relations between the classes of data sources. It does not allow a single instance of direct data from multiple data sources, but the Forum could have a link with its data in the other data source.
