Class Report

java.lang.Object
oracle.forms.jdapi.Report
All Implemented Interfaces:
JdapiObject

public class Report extends Object
Object to represent a Forms Report object. This is an encapsulation of the Forms C API d2frpt.

In some cases, using methods on this class may result in a JdapiIllegalStateException being thrown. When this happens, you are using an object that refers to a Forms object that has been deleted - your reference is no longer valid. You can check if an instance of this class is valid by using the isValidFormsObject() method. If you code correctly, this should not happen. It will tend to happen if you keep references (for extended periods) to Forms objects rather than look them up dynamically. Of course you will only have this problem if you destroy Forms objects.

    • Report

      protected Report(long pd2frpt)
      Protected constructor, used internally to create Report objects. This doesn't actually create a new Report, it just creates a Java instance for an already existing Forms object.

      Do NOT use this constructor, even within the Jdapi package. If you have a pointer and need to instantiate it's Java representation, get the object via the context cache, e.g.

       myBaseObject = Jdapi.getObject(myPointer);
       
      Parameters:
      pd2frpt - C pointer to Forms object

      C pointer to the Forms object
    • queryType

      public int queryType()
      Returns the FormAPI object type ID (x_OTID in JdapiTypes). This should always be the same value as returned for getTypeId. The difference between the two methods is that queryType calls down to the API itself; this ensures that the correct type is returned. Because this method calls down to the API, you might find it a little faster to use getTypeID instead.
      Specified by:
      queryType in interface JdapiObject
      Returns:
      x_OTID an object type ID as defined in JdapiTypes.
    • setClientInfo

      public void setClientInfo(Object clientInfo)
      Sets the client information. Since the clientInfo is a java.lang.Object, the client information can be anything you want to associate with the referred object. For example, you can create your own class, then pass it to this method. The referred object will retain a reference to the clientInfo.

      This client info object is not persistent and will be lost when the session ends.

      Specified by:
      setClientInfo in interface JdapiObject
      Parameters:
      clientInfo - client info to be associated with the object.
    • getClientInfo

      public Object getClientInfo()
      Returns the client info object associated with this Object. The type ID of the object returned is dependant on the type ID of the object that was set using setClientObject.
      Specified by:
      getClientInfo in interface JdapiObject
      Returns:
      the client info object associated with this object.
    • getPersistentClientInfoBlob

      public Blob getPersistentClientInfoBlob()
      Returns the persistent client info Blob associated with this object.
      Specified by:
      getPersistentClientInfoBlob in interface JdapiObject
      Returns:
      Blob containing client info.
    • getPersistentClientInfoObject

      public Object getPersistentClientInfoObject()
      Returns the persistent client info Java object associated with this object.
      Specified by:
      getPersistentClientInfoObject in interface JdapiObject
      Returns:
      java.lang.Object serialized into the Forms object.
    • setPersistentClientInfo

      public void setPersistentClientInfo(Blob val)
      Sets persistent client info for this object.

      Like the non-persistent client info methods, the client info can be any information that you want to save with the form. Unlike the non-persistent client info methods, the persistent info is saved as part of the form and will not be lost when the session is ended.

      Specified by:
      setPersistentClientInfo in interface JdapiObject
      Parameters:
      val - a Blob object containing client info.
    • setPersistentClientInfo

      public void setPersistentClientInfo(Serializable obj)
      Serializes any Java object which supports the Serializable interface to this object's Persistent Client Info.

      Like the non-persistent client info methods, the client info can be any information that you want to save with the form. Unlike the non-persistent client info methods, the persistent info is saved as part of the form and will not be lost when the session is ended.

      Specified by:
      setPersistentClientInfo in interface JdapiObject
      Parameters:
      obj - any Serializable object containing client info.
    • equals

      public boolean equals(JdapiObject obj)
      Compares two objects and determines if they are equal.
      Specified by:
      equals in interface JdapiObject
      Parameters:
      obj - object to be compared.
      Returns:
      true if the two objects are equal; returns false if they are not equal.
    • clone

      public JdapiObject clone(JdapiObject parent, String newName)
      Creates a clone of the specified object, creating a new object with the given name and owner. For example, given a Block in Form A, you can clone it into Form B by passing Form B in the parent parameter, and specifying a new name for the block in the newName parameter.

      The new object is the same as the original object in that it has the same property values. However, subclassing information is discarded, and the inherited property values "flattened" into local values in the new object.

      It is your reponsibility to pass in an appropriate parent object. If you do not do this, you will probably get a JdapiException runtime exception. If possible, use the type safe clone method that is provided on each Forms object class.

      Specified by:
      clone in interface JdapiObject
      Parameters:
      parent - owner of the new object.
      newName - name of the new object.
      Returns:
      the clone of the object.
    • changeOwner

      public void changeOwner(JdapiObject newOwner)
      Assigns a new owner to the referred object. This method will cause any previous owner to relinquish its ownership of the referred object.

      Set newOwner to null if you want the object to have no owner.

      The only restriction on this method is that the new owner must be in the same module as the referred object. If you attempt to assign a new owner that is in a different module, then a JdapiException will be thrown.

      Note: If you want to assign the object to a new owner in a different module, then you will have to clone or subclass the object.

      Specified by:
      changeOwner in interface JdapiObject
      Parameters:
      newOwner - the new owner of referred object; specify null if you want the object to have no owner.
      Throws:
      JdapiException - if newOwner is in a different module.
    • toString

      public String toString()
      Converts and returns the object properties to string format. This is useful for debugging purposes. The string is in the format: NAME(CLASSNAME, pointer: D2FOB*, context D2FCTX*)
      Specified by:
      toString in interface JdapiObject
      Overrides:
      toString in class Object
      Returns:
      String representation of the object
    • clearObjectPointer

      protected void clearObjectPointer()
      Used internally to flag this object as an invalid object.
    • isValidFormsObject

      public boolean isValidFormsObject()
      Description copied from interface: JdapiObject
      Determines whether this Java instance references a valid Forms object.

      For example, assume that you have a reference to a block. If you call destroy() on its owning module, then the module and all of its blocks should be deleted from memory. The reference that you have no longer refers to a valid Forms object. A call to isValidFormsObject() on the block should return false.

      Specified by:
      isValidFormsObject in interface JdapiObject
      Returns:
      true if the instance references a valid forms object; false otherwise.
    • destroy

      public void destroy()
      Destroys the object - this removes the object from it's context. The JNI level is responsible for removing this object from the context cache, so we don't need to do that in here.
      Specified by:
      destroy in interface JdapiObject
    • move

      public void move(JdapiObject next)
      Reorders an object with respect to its siblings in the collection it belongs to. This is similar to using drag and drop in Form Builder to move a block in a list. This method represents a way to do the same thing programmatically. For example, if you want a block appear immediately before Block5 in a list, you pass the object representing Block5 as the nextObject argument.

      Pass null to this method to move the object to the end of the list. If the specified object and the next_object do not share the same owner, or do not have the same type, the method throws an exception.

      You cannot use this method to move objects between parents. For example, it cannot be used to move an Item from one Block to another. If you want to move an object from one parent to another you will have to do something like:

         // e.g. to move 'itmA' to be positioned before 'itmB' in block
         // 'blkB' (when 'itmA' is in another block)
      
         // copy itmA into a new parent (blkB) using same name
         Item newItmA = itmA.clone(blkB, itmA.getName());
         newItmA.move(itmB);   // move new item relative to itmB
         itmA.destroy();       // delete original object
         itmA = newItmA;
       
      Specified by:
      move in interface JdapiObject
      Parameters:
      next - the object next to which the specified object is to be moved.
      Throws:
      JdapiException - if you attempt to move an object next to an object that does not share the same owner or is not of the samme type.

          {
            int propValue = propClass.getIntegerProperty(propNum);
          } 
          ...

    • getStringIDProperty

      public int getStringIDProperty(int propertyTypeId)
      Retrieves a special String ID (integer) property from the referred object.

      Specified by:
      getStringIDProperty in interface JdapiObject
      Parameters:

      Returns:
      Property's text representation
    • getObjProp

      protected long getObjProp(int propertyTypeId)
      Internal method used to get an object property value. This only really gets the C pointer to the Forms object. You must then use the ContextCache to lookup/instantiate the Java representation of the object.
      Parameters:
      propertyTypeId - Number identifying the property
      Returns:
      Property's value
      See Also:
    • getObjectProperty

      public JdapiObject getObjectProperty(int propertyTypeId)
      Description copied from interface: JdapiObject
      Retrieves a JdapiObject property from the referred object. For example, if you pass the integer propertyTypeId for an Item in a Block to this method, it returns the Item.
      Specified by:
      getObjectProperty in interface JdapiObject
      Parameters:
      propertyTypeId - property type ID for which a JdapiObject value is returned.
      Returns:
      the JdapiObject property value.
    • getChildObjectProperty

      public JdapiIterator getChildObjectProperty(int propertyTypeId)
      Description copied from interface: JdapiObject
      Retrieves child objects for a given property value. Implicit in this method is the idea of an ownership relationship between objects. Items are clearly owned by a Block. If you delete the Block, then its Items are deleted. On the other hand, Items can appear on a Canvas. If you delete the Canvas, however, the Items are not deleted. Thus, the method returns an iterator over Items if it is passed a Block. In contrast, if it is passed a Canvas, it should not return an iterator over Items.

      For example:

            ...
            // get the actual values for the current child object type, 
            // for example, get the Items on a Block 
            iter = jo.getChildObjectProperty(prop.getPropertyId());  
            ...
       
      Note, it should be (slightly) faster to call the specific method on the object, for example getBlocks() on the FormModule, as it involves fewer API calls. However, getChildObjectProperty should be sufficient if you only have a propertyTypeId available.

      This method also differs from the direct accessors in that null is returned if there are no objects, not an empty iterator.

      Specified by:
      getChildObjectProperty in interface JdapiObject
      Parameters:
      propertyTypeId - number identifying the child object property.
      Returns:
      Iterator for child objects, can return null if there are no child objects.

      Returns:
      Value of property downcast to a BaseFormsObject (null if none of object does not have this property)
    • setSubclassParent

      public void setSubclassParent(JdapiObject parent)
      Change the subclassing parent of the object referred.

      The metadata associated with each object describes the types of objects that can become its subclassing parent. If the subclassing metadata associated with the refrred object doesn't indicate the objects of the given parent's type are allowed, then this method will throw an exception.

      Specified by:
