[dba-dev] Re: How to refresh DataSourceBrowser in a FrameControl
Frank , Me again: when loading a paramerized statement i have aSQL error Values not set for all parameters so i load aLoaderArguments(1).Name = CommandType aLoaderArguments(1).Value = 2 'com.sun.star.sdb.CommandType.TABLE aLoaderArguments(2).Name = Command aLoaderArguments(2).Value = SELECT distinct * FROM pmgdbase.adv_reden_tbvips WHERE pmgdbase.adv_reden_tbvips.REDENID = ? how do i can load mi ? parametervalue i supose something like aLoaderArguments(6).Name = CommandParameter 1 ??? aLoaderArguments(6).value = sID Grzt Fernand Hi Fernand, Thanks, now i have my Model and can reload, but the reloading do not affects the activecommand ? an not the results So how to make the new Loaderarguments (active) or how to pass a new activecommand to the DatasourceBrowser Ah - I missed, in your original mail, that you actually want to change the command underlying the DSB. The simplest way might be to just set the Command property of the database form (the model you just retrieved) before reloading. A slightly more complex, but cheaper (in terms of runtime resources) solution would be to base the DSB on a parametrized statement (... WHERE REDENID = ?), and then use the XParameters.setInt (or whatever type the REDENID column has) method: oForm = oController.com_sun_star_awt_XTabController_getModel() oForm.setInt( 1, sid ) oForm.reload() my code is now: odlg.getcontrol(Grid2).LoaderArguments = aLoaderArguments2 ' the new arguments with a new SQL statement in it The LoaderArguments are used at the time the DSB is plugged into the frame, and then discarded (at least as far as the DSB is concerned, not sure the FrameControl implementation makes later use of it). Thus, reload does know nothing 'bout changed LoaderArguments, so this doesn't work. oDatasourceBrowser = odlg.getcontrol(Grid2).frame.controller omodel = oDatasourceBrowser.com_sun_star_awt_XTabController_getModel() omodel.reload As said above, oModel.Command =new_command before doing the reload should help already.

[dba-dev] Re: How to refresh DataSourceBrowser in a FrameControl
Hallo Frank , Point is : my Datsourcebrowser has no model ? I load a DatsourceBrowser in a FrameControl (learned from Ariel) in a Dialog oFrameControl2 = createUnoService(com.sun.star.frame.FrameControl) oDlg.addControl(Grid2 oFrameControl2) Then Grid2 (in my Dialog) is a com.sun.star.frame.FrameControl with no model but a Frame who has a Controler who is a DatasourceBrowser but with no Model ! so i am a bit confused :-) Thanks Fernand Hello Fernand, I try to use the com.sun.star.frame.FrameControl in a dialog acting as a subforms'. So i have 2 Framecontrol's loaded with a dataSource browser based on a SQL-statement When selecting a row in the first FrameControl the data in the second must been refreshed (passing a new SQL-statementto the second Framecontrol). I found no way to do that because the activeCommand off the Resultset is readonly. The DataSourceBrowser supports the css.form.FormController service, thus a css.form.XFormController interface, so the getModel method will return the css.form.component.DataForm which represents the data. This, in turn, has a css.form.XLoadable interface, which supports a reload method. So, something like oDataSourceBrowser.getModel().reload() should do (assuming that oDataSourceBrowser is the controller loaded into your Grid2 control).

[dba-dev] Flat text Database Opening Changes in DataSource Browser
Sinds 3.3 the opening of a Flat Text Database (showing the tables) in the DataSource Browser has changed. Before, when showing the Tables (all the .txt files in a directory) was fast.and no files where locked by OO. Now , OO seems to load in Memory all the tables (.txt files) and locks all the files in the directory what makes a multi-user aproch imposible . With many files in the directory, it takes ages to view the tables also. Is this wanted behavior or should i file a issue ?

If I just use the DATE/TIME functions on their own, the results are inconsistent across the months, especially when adding or subtracting. I haven't kept any of my old queries that did direct application of date addition / substraction because they were of no use to me, so I rewrote them all with CAST and EXTRACT. An example of a current one that works is given below : SELECT CAST(EXTRACT(YEAR FROM CURDATE()) as SIGNED)-CAST(EXTRACT(YEAR FROM Date1) as SIGNED)+1 as 'Renewal Num' FROM mybase where MONTH(Date1) = 12 I do not consider this to be an optimised way of obtaining the result I wanted, but I found it to be the only way that worked reliably for each month of the year, independently of the date provided by CURRENT_DATE. In a more simplified expression, the results were wrong by +/- 1 dependent on the MONTH given and the date provided by CURRENT_DATE.

Re: [dba-dev] How to set a MySQL TIMESTAMP to null
Peter, stupid me, my rowset is client site but the server site resultset gives also 93 as type ? Peter , Thanks for the hint but no luick , the type in the rowset = 93 this gives and still a lot of 0's and no (null) in my table as i use a SQL statement i do not alter the rowset but go over the active conection to the mySQL table. when is use the rowset service to update in stead off a direct SQL statement then the column.updatnull gives a (null) in the table. as the rowset service still gives problems i need to use SQLstatements to alter my tables behind the OO- rowset service runs also a SQLstatement : question is wath type is there used to set the right SQLtype ? Thanks Fernand Hi Fernand, did you query for the type of the column? resultSet.columns.getByName(myCol).Type? oStatement.setNull(1, ) for a textfield works fine ( = long SQLType others) oStatement.setNull(2, ) for a timestamp returns 00-00-00 00:00:00 and not the Mysql (null) i tried SQLtype 0 also with same results Regards Peter - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@dba.openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@dba.openoffice.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@dba.openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@dba.openoffice.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@dba.openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@dba.openoffice.org
Re: [dba-dev] ORB args ComponentData
Frank , Thanks for this clarification, i supose (hope) they are working on this feature ? btw. we can chnage the component parameters. without opening the DBase file. We open the Reportthe component is then available we close the report, but the component regist somewhere in memory ad so we can alter the parameters and run the report with the new newparameters Thanks Fernand Hi Fernand, How and in witch format can i provide the ComponentData Argument when using LoadFromURL i try to set the filter to new value Looking into the code, it seems to me that the only parameter in the component data which is respected so far is the ActiveConnection.

[dba-dev] SRB missing text FUNTIONS
Maybe a stupid question or i looked just over it
: but why is a very usefull text Function as CONCAT or CONCATENATE not
available in the Sun Report Builder ?
I know, there are Queries to do things like that (supposes we build for
every Report a new Query...), but Concatenate a part of field with some
'text' or other parts is more handy than some other available text
Functions.as URLENCODE etc...
Joining the field parts as separate controls is al so a work around
but by making URL's for pictures we need to do something like
concat('///myserver/mydirectory ; LEFT(TEXT[urlFIELD]);10); 'etc...')
Hope it helps to improve SRB and thanks for all the exellent work done
to make this tool available!

Hi Frank, hi Ocke,
Java has a method registerOutParameter(int,int), which e.g. works with
Oracle jdbc like registerOutParameter(1,OracleTypes.CURSOR).
Interface XOutParameters needs a third parameter typeName, which I
tried with
registerOutParameter(1,com.sun.star.sdbc.DataType.REF,oracle.jdbc.OracleTypes.REF).
Invalid name pattern is the answer from sdbc.
It's my first contact with stored procedures, so perhaps you can give
me a hint how to handle this.
Regards

Dunno, my assumption was that it is not strictly necessary ... I tink

A quick look into chapter 8 of the HSQL docs shows:
quote
The routine body is a SQL statement. In its simplest form, the body is a
single SQL statement. A simple example of a function is given below:
An example of the use of the function in an SQL statement is given
below:
SELECT an_hour_before(event_timestamp) AS notification_timestamp,

The other SQL statement for calling procedures, in contrast to
functions, would be CALL.
So chances are good that a prepared statement on the OOo side of things
is sufficient for transferring parameters to a statement build up by a
stored function or stored procedure call.
HTH anyway,
Marc
Hi Marc
That is good for single return values, but not for returning multiple
parameters or for returning a cursor to a result set.
So, sure there is some access to the stored procedures with the
current implementation but it isn't yet ready to take full advantage
them - IMO.
Thanks,

Re: [dba-dev] Problem: OpenOffice Base and PostgreSQL stored procedures
Marc ,
We uses also Stored Procedures on a Msql server To make all things
work , we handles all user input (parameters calculatutions,
translations etc...) with OO-dialogs and some macro's to create the SQL
statements writen to please the ODBC driver and the Msql server :-)
Good day
We develop point of sales (POS) applications using PostgreSQL as the
database backend. We thought it could be interesting for our customers
to access the database directly from OpenOffice Base to create their own
reports etc. But it turns out that OpenOffice Base and PostgreSQL are
not playing together nicely:
Our database consists of tables (of course..), views, and a substantial
number of stored procedures, especially for the more complex reports and
such.
E.g, to get the balance of all accounts, you would send the following
SQL code to the database:
SELECT * FROM acf_balance_all()
To get the balance from only on account, you would use
SELECT * FROM acf_balance('1000')
('1000' is the account number).
When I enter the SQL code in the query editor in non-native SQL mode, it
outputs a syntax error, i.e. it seems to be unable to handle the
PostgreSQL stored procedure calls. I can, however, set the query editor
to native SQL mode, then the SQL code is passed as is to the database
backend and no error is output. But with native SQL mode, I loose the
possibility to have OpenOffice ask the user for parameters. I can only
use calls without parameters. But most stored procedurs actually
require paramates.
There is a second (and maybe unrelated) problem: OpenOffice Base seems
for each query to send a generated query to the database server to check
if that table in the query exists. It does something like
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tablename WHERE 0 = 1
This will of course never return any data, but it will raise an error if
tablename does not exist, so I assume this is done to check for the
presence of a table. But again, this does not work when a query instead
of table specifies a stored procedure in a SELECT.
I am using OpenOffice Base on Mac OS X Snow Leopard using the
jdbc.postgresql JDBC driver and PostgreSQL 8.4.2 as the database
backend. I did not try any native client, since this is a bug that I
want to report (and, if possible, see fixed) regardless if a native
driver would work.
If there are any details I can further provide, or any test I can run,
please me know.

Re: [dba-dev] Opening a GridControl in a UNO Dialog
Frank , For months i am looking for the best solutions to manipulating data in Dialogs instead of forms. So i was missing a GridControl. Last week i Readed on Gulfoss that a new AWT UNO Dialog GridControl is coming, I discused with the makers why there is no dataloader available. They told me that this GridControl is a developer tool and we have to build our proper Loading stuff. I can do that but it wil be terible slow using loops over the resultset. Then i stumbled on 2008- discussion between you and Ariel about implementing a DataSourceBrowser in a Uno Dialog. This solution is not only faster but also available NOW Then I was just wondering if we also can use this FormGridView in the same way. Thanks to your knowledge its now (again) all clair for me :-). As Always Thanks Fernand Thanks to what i learned from Frank and Ariel i can open a DataSourceBrowser in a UNO Dialog doing the same for a FormGridView fails in a way that the FormGridView opens in the dialog but without data ? The FormGridView is meant as slave view for an existing and living form, it's the component you see when pressing the Form as Table button in a form document. So, it won't work on its own. I don't know out of my head how you would need to create a proper env for the FormGridView, but can we go one step back, and you explain what you want to achieve? Depending on this, the FormGridView might not be the best choice. Ciao Frank - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@dba.openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@dba.openoffice.org

[dba-dev] MySql-Connector 30-times slower than ODBC
We did some tests with the latest MySql-connector Alpha2 on Windows and found that in a real live situation that opening a table with 28.000 records takes 35 seconds before the whole table is loaded in memory.( going to the last record) With a ODBC connection it takes 1 second.

BUT it is still a mistery for me where this info is stored :-) Fernand Hi Ocke, still couldn´t find the solution to get the column default values and column descriptions working. We have two default values 1. DefaultValue and 2. ControlDefault The 2nd is stored inside the odb file db:default-value. The 1st is stored inside the database. The problem now was to get the default value from the database when moving to the insert row. This wasn't possible, here ControlDefault was invited. So when you use the table designer to create a table you always insert the ControlDefault. To change for example the wizard you have to set the DefaultValue at the column descriptor. The source code for the table designer can be found in dbaccess/source/ui/tabledesign I would like to store default values and the column descriptions in the odb files as we do not fully support them in the database. Is it right that base can do this for us or must the driver implement the functionality to store the values in the odb files? I have neither an idea how to tell base to do this for me nor how to do it my self in the driver :( At the moment the default values and the column descriptions can be set, but they are lost as soon as you close the connection. This is because the corresponding properties of the drivers column objects are set correctly, but there is no code in the driver to save/restore them to/from the odb.

Try opening your query and ensure that you have created aliases for any returned column that uses a function. ie. SELECT AVERGE( FIELD ), COUNT( FIELD) FROM TABLE GROUP BY FIELD Instead try: SELECT AVERGE( FIELD ) AS AVG , COUNT( FIELD) AS CNT FROM TABLE GROUP BY FIELD Of course using the Query Designer you do this by adding the Alias in the cell just below the field selection.

ActiveConnection is only accepted when the form is being loaded, after that, any change to it is vetoed, since the assumption is that the form, living in the database document, always uses the connection which the main database window already established. Am I right posing that I must open all my forms with OpenFromURL and then passing this connection to the embedded subforms ? or have you a other trick ? Greetz and a succes full and Happy New Year to you and your Family Fernand Drew Jensen wrote: Fernand Vanrie wrote: Hallo Drew Thanks for you extended reply.

Hello Fernand, Actually no you don't need 2 ODB files per user. When a form, query definition, or report, is opened from a script (basic, python or JavaScript macro) you pass an instance of an open connection object. Normally this is the Active connection for the ODB file, but it does not have to be. So, when the switchboard form loads it could create a second connection object. One that is connected to the MS SQLServer. Then when it loads the actual forms, etc., simply pass this second connection to the form. In fact this also allows you to use getIsolatedConnection (versus getConnection) to create a connection that supports AUTO_COMMIT = False if you need to - this allows you full control for committing or rolling back updates as needed, for instance: multiple table updates as a single business transaction. (This same trick works for an embedded HSQL database by the way) You will probably want to use two ODB files when you are building the application, but a final step before pushing out to your users will be a merge of the forms, query def's, reports into the single ODB file that you would distribute. Taking this one step then, you can have forms and or statements in scripts that work with local (embedded HSQL) tables in the same ODB file then - a nice way to offer user specific configuration or history data in your database.

Re: [dba-dev] OpenDocument event assigned macro can not execute - now what?
Hallo Drew, Frank We have developed a a implementation as described by Drew, wath sould be the best practice at this day to keep or users a far as possible from our Tables etc.. Second question: waths the actual situation of having macro's in the base document (OO 3.0) it self ? Greetz Fernand Drew Jensen wrote: Frank Schönheit - Sun Microsystems Germany wrote: It should refuse to open the file. Uhm. I'd have a hard time implementing a logic like do not open this document when you cannot execute on-load-macros, this sounds ... strange. However, together with a open a form when opening the DB doc feature, one could - declare a minimalistic form saying nothing here for you as on-open-form - assign a macro to the OnLoad event of the DB doc (or the form), which replaces the form with the switchboard To me, that sounds more like a legitimate solution to the problem you sketched. Hi Frank, Very good, and it does at first seem to fit the bill. If it actually does however, depends in the end on the goal one is after. My goal was best stated with the line All this so that your users are kept away from the raw tables, queries and such. Let me try to refine the goal first. - Use Base as a runtime platform for a data centric business process application - A bit better, and I think good enough for the moment. One comment on this, notice that nothing in this statement refers to the database engine used, embedded HSQL, local dBase files or remote MySQL / PostgreSQL / DB2, it doesn't matter. In fact if there were this open a form when opening the DB doc (I'll call it the autorun property for the moment) for ODB files then your suggestion of using a minimalist autorun form that turns around and loads the switchboard form sounds like a very good 'best practices' design pattern at the very least. However it doesn't fully meet my goal - because, if the macro security settings will not allow embedded scripts to run, leaving the autorun form open and the Base file open on the desktop the user can just close the autorun form and have access to the underlying functions. Not what I want to happen. Thinking about achieving my goal then it seems there is a second property that wold be needed at the ODB file level. Hide Base window ( Yes / No ) The property would have a default of NO. It would only be active for edit if the autorun property held the name of a form and when set to TRUE it changes the load behavior for the ODB file to: if autorun ---if hide_base_window = TRUE --open odb file with property HIDDEN = TRUE Ok - there are few things to think about here. Such as closing the ODB file. It would be really nice if Base had a feature that counted how many child windows where open IF hide_base_window = TRUE, incrementing this counter every time a window was opened and decrementing when one closed. When the counter hits 0, close the parent file - or something similar, it would take a bit more thought to get that right no doubt. Anyway - just a little idea to kick around on the list.

Re: [dba-dev] How to store formated text in OO base
Marc and Peter, Thanks for your responses, Normally for copying images and formated text portions from OO- docs or non-OO documents I simply uses the uno:copy with the dispatcher. This approach works fine I will now investigate the XTransferable stuff for a suposed more cleaner code :-). But I still has some questions: - how do i Store Cliboard or XTransferable content in to the database ? - how do i call it back from the base into the clibboard or in to a XTransferable object ? When having the database content in the cliboard or a in a XTransferable object, then the missing off a proper Form Field can been resolved with showing the database content in a frame or Cell. and using a writerdoc as a form.
