Form Development Libraries

To enable the end user to operate the Forms user friendly we need to standardize the Forms. To design or develop the form with Applications Standards, Package provided a Standard Form called APPSTAND.fmb

APPSTAND.fmb: is a collection of the entire standard object Groups used in the Oracle Applications. Form should inherit the following object Group Properties

1. STAND_PC_AND_VA: This consists of Windows, Canvases, Blocks and Items used for Property Classes and Visual Attributes.

2. STAND_TOOLBAR: This consists of Windows, Canvases, Blocks and Items used for Tool Bars.

3. STANDARD_CALENDER: This consists of Windows, Canvases, Blocks and Items used for Calendars.

4. STANDARD_FOLDER: This consists of Windows, Canvases, Blocks and Items used for Data Restriction and Changing the Layout of the Form at run time. And this is not used for Custom Forms).

5. QUERY_FIND: This consists of Windows, Canvases, Blocks and Items used for implementing find windows or Search methods.

6. LIBRARIES:

APPCORE.PLL: is the collection of Procedures, Functions and Packages used to define Menus and Tool Bars.

FNDSQF.PLL: is the collection of Procedures, Functions and Packages used to define Special Objects like KFF, DFF, Form Functions and Non-Form functions.

APPDAYPK.PLL: is the collection of Procedures, Functions and Packages used to define Calendars.

CUSTOM.PLL: is the collection of Procedures, Functions and Packages used to customize the Forms with out modifying the code of Oracle Applications.


Note: The Built-ins of CUSTOM.PLL are internally called by the Built-ins of APPCORE.PLL and the Built-ins of APPCORE.PLL are called by few Triggers like
WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE,
WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE,
WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE,
PRE-BLOCK,
PRE-RECORD,
PRE-ITEM

APPCORE2.PLL: is a Duplicate/Replica of APPCORE.PLL. It has the same Built-ins as APPCORE.PLL and this is used in CUSTOME.PLL

GLOBE.PLL: is used to change the regional settings of the Package with out modifying the code of Applications. GLOBE.PLL internally calls the Built-ins of JE.PLL, JL.PLL and JA.PLL Libraries.

JE.PLL: is used to change the regional settings of Middle East Countries.

JA.PLL: is used to change the regional settings of Asia Pacific Countries.

JL.PLL: is used to change the regional settings of Latin America.
