synchronize SequenceValueItem entity for XML imports
Hi Friends, This is Kumaraswamy. I am using ofbiz for my e-commerce application. I like the option data seed through XML import which is provided in ofbiz. we are seeding the data for *InventoryItem* entity though XML import since eariler. By doing this, The sequence Numbers are not updating in * SequenceValueItem*. Now I am not able to create *InventoryItem* through events(either JAVA or mini-lang), its giving duplicate primary key error, because of the sequence numbers are already used. Of course, by doing max(sequenceId)+1 and store. That will be bad idea what I feel. Is there any alternate for this. May be an ECA to update *SequenceValueItem *entity with new seqId for every InventoryItem XML import. Generally, we do XML imports frequently for few entities. How to implement generic ECA which will update *SequenceValueItem *for every entity which uses sequenceId. Any code help will be appriciated. Thanks in Advance -- Thanks, Kumaraswamy.N
Re: Why primary keys are VAR_CHAR type in OFBiz?
Uggh That post mentions this: "What you *should* be thinking about is do you really want a varchar PK? Generally speaking, it's better to use a phantom PK (ie: a SERIAL), and put a UNIQUE constraint on the varchar in the appropriate table." IMO that is nothing short of horrible database design and complicates data models and applications significantly. There is lots of good literature showing a better way (ie natural keys), like Joe Celko who has been mentioned on this list a few times. Of course, as with any practice there are those for and against it. In absence of requirements and objectives to guide you, the only answer is it doesn't matter, you can go sit in the sun for all it matters because you haven't decided what you want to do. Once details are in place, then you can decide. -David On Feb 17, 2009, at 1:17 PM, Jacques Le Roux wrote: EnterpriseDB guys know what they are talking about (they are offering Postgres commercial support) http://markmail.org/message/7ykdxmvc7fvonx5q Jacques PS : OK, I'm a Postgres fan Jacques From: "BJ Freeman" -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 there was not statement on comparison, you are correct. have you done a test though to see what the real difference in msec is, on what you define as a large database.

Again, that depends upon the database, the operating system, and the hardware. If you have an installation that performs better with a different field type, then by all means, change your local copy to use a different field type. -Adrian Sven Wesley wrote: Sorry guys, but I don't agree on the first point.

Re: Tricky! About fields in the form
Jack, I suggested configuring these through entity fields instead of in the database because that is what is supported right now. If you want something that adds fields to a Form Widget form based on data in the database that would have to be written as it currently only feeds from the form definition XML files. That wouldn't be too hard to do (ie add functionality to add fields based on the database). We decided early on that we wanted these things configured from XML files instead of being more database driven (like Compiere and certain other frameworks are) because it is easier to revision control and manage in a large-scale environment (especially for updates and collaboration when multiple people are working on the applications). So yes, it could certainly be developed as an extension to the current Form Widget, but does not exist now. -David On Feb 17, 2009, at 6:46 AM, Jack Liu wrote: Are you sure what I want and you have a good solution?

Re: Tricky! About fields in the form
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
field types are gotten from the
framework\entity\fieldtype folder for your specific db.
look at the Type for how to define in ofbiz like
type="short-varchar"
there is no text type.
if the db is connected to ofbiz now, and an entity is defined
you can use the web tools to see what would be pulled from the table
go to
https://localhost:8443/webtools/control/entitymaint
find your entity protocolAttribute
click on Fnd
you can put an "A" in the "type" field and see what comes up.
you can do this with the other entities to see the results.
the code that does this is part of the code you will need but written
differently.
The rest of the form is how you want it laid out.
Please contact me directly.
I can only respond to mailing list concern here.

Re: Add To List is Working only for Virtual
Hello Jacques, All , Thanks for your Suggestion. I just go through explanations of feature explosion mechanism. its really very helpful to me. as we see shopping list behavior from two different page 1 from product detail page 2 from show cart page (after add to cart). But I am still confused about the different behavior of wish list from different page, but IMO it should work same from both place then it will be more significant. Here is the steps that i follow 1. Login with admin and ofbiz 2. Product detail page select all the feature for the product *WG-9943* color:- Black , Size : - 4 Wheel 3 and then click to "*Add to shopping list *" , then in shopping(wish) list page, it Shows the Virtual Product WG-9943 with out feature which I selected from product detail page, where IMO it should show *WG-9943-B4* Wish List also shows the link in the last column with the drop down which contains all variants of that product (as they are available as Finished Goods in data base ). and we can *Replace with available variant.* Then some doubts as 1.What about that option which I selected from Product Detail Page ? 2.why i will again select the variant which I already selected in previous page before clicking on "Add To Shopping List". ? OK it is the case for the Variants Explosion Mechanism. As variants are available in data base But in case of Feature Explosion Mechanism as we know that it will create 1. From product detail page select feature for the product *WG-9944* *color : - black . Size :- 4 Wheel* 2. click on the "Add To Shopping list" then in shopping(wish) list page we again get the Virtual Product *WG-9944* in the list, and as there is no Variant available in Data Base, so in list there is no variant available (because that variant is created dynamically) , and then when we click on "Add to Cart" button from shopping list page and will again send us to product detail page with the message : - "*Choose Variation Before Adding to Cart.*" but now as the purpose of wish list i can understand that the, one can save the list of product what he wants/ likes to buy in the near future, and if that shopping list not contain the product with the selected features which was already saved. It is the current scenario of wish list. There is one more case where it works fine for that i followed these steps - > Login with admin and ofbiz - > Select Features for the product *(WG-9944 / WG-9943)* - > click on "Add to Cart" button - > then go to "view cart / Show cart" page - > select the "check box" for the product - > click on "Add to Shopping List" then go to shopping list page , there we can see it is showing the proper variants for the product. Thanks & Regards --- Arpit Singh Pandya Jacques Le Roux wrote: Actually it works (you get the right price in the shopping list). This is due to how feature explosion works. Look for instance at WG-9943 : you can select the variants and have them clearly in the shopping list. Please look for explanations about feature explosion mechanism. Jacques From: "Arpit Singh Pandya" Hello All, In Product Detail page while adding product to the shopping/wish list, it will only take Virtual Product in the shopping/wish list, although we can select the variant for that product. I refer to product as Large Widgets (WG-9944) is it the proper functionality of wish/shopping list. ? Please let me know I am wrong about this. Thanks & Regards Arpit Singh Pandya

Hash: SHA1
find a page that has a drop down and look at the code.
preferably widget.
also look up views that use the org.ofbiz.common.enum entity
there are examples in code.
My comments are how ofbiz sees things.
it takes a while for a datbase centric person to see things the way
ofbiz does it. I speak from experience.
If you step back and let go of the Table Columnnames, it helps.
