Enhanced Forms user interface (CORE) 1.0
The Enhanced User Interface Module of Nostran Computing is a simplified
UI standard package which facilitates building listing and data editing (detail)
forms with Oracle Forms. This kind of packages are usually built by development companies using Oracle
Forms to standardize development and improve programmer effectiveness. Main features of the module:
General:
- Functionality of form types (list, detail), block types (detail editing, referencing
list block) are centralized by usage of property classes.
- Template forms can be built easily with subclassing necessary common objects stored
in CORE’s object libraries.
- Customized menu for the different form types (no need for query functions in a detail
block).
Listing forms related features:
- Automatic disabling of edit functions in the listing block
- Currently
selected record is blue when the listing block is in NORMAL mode, green
when in ENTER-QUERY mode.
- Detail form calling is done automatically if there is a defined detail form for
the listing block.
- Configuration of the listing block (ID field, detail form name) can be done in the
Pre-Form trigger in a pre-prepared trigger text.
