problem in creating GUI for upload & download file by Oracle forms
I want to create a GUI in Oracle form 10g, the purpose of creating this page is :
-user able to upload & see uploaded file(upload into ftp)
-User able to remove his file(from ftp)
-user able to Download file(from FTP)
-this GUI should able transfer big files also(around 12M)
I am new in Oracle forms 10g because of that before I start, I guess it would be good I ask my question here & get help.
currently we use Oracle form 6i,and we use batch file & ftp service for moving file manually but by increasing our branch I guess if we do these work automatically we can decrease our faults. also our branch now copy their file manually in ftp.
I am looking for design something like drag & drop for upload files. Wha开发者_开发技巧t is new services from oracle to make me easier to connect via ftp & make upload, download/create folder (to/from/in ftp)?
I hope u have good idea for sharing with me.
You're not the first to ask: see for example http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=689655. However that method (using WebUtil to get the file, then use UTL_FTP on the server to send it) seems to require two transfers - from the client to the database server, then FTP from the database server.
A better method might be a Java Bean, see http://forms.pjc.bean.over-blog.com/article-23800297.html
If the ultimate destination of the file is an FTP server, then you are best off using a dedicated FTP client, rather than Oracle Forms. Also, FTP is an insecure protocol, so I'd be switching to SFTP (FTP using SSH) or FTPS (FTP over SSL).
