global.flexibleRequest
|
old|compact
|
old
|
Defines which funcionality uses DBPrism for flexible parameter pasing.
"old" functionality is compatible with Oracle Web Server 4.x
that is, for an url like this:
http://www.acme.com/pls/myDAD/!scott.my_pkg.my_proc?x=a&y=b&x=c
four parameter will be passed, like theses:
num_entries ==> 3
name_array ==> (`x', `y', `x')
value_array ==> (`a', `b', `c')
reserved ==> (reserved)
"compact" functionality is compatible with Oracle mod_plsql
for the above url example, the encoded argument will be:
name_array ==> (`x', `y', `x')
value_array ==> (`a', `b', `c')
Note that two arguments of type array will be passed

String to specify JVM country and language
|

These parameters overrides the JVM country and language seeting, note that if you
changes these parameters, it will override the JVM default setting affecting
other servlet container and in many case this operation is not allowed.
Changing these settings affects JDBC conversions such as NLS_NUMERIC setting.

With a value 0 in an Apache Web Server with Jserv 1.1 gets test

global.alias
|
Blank separated strings

No Default value

Connection alias to be recognize, for Oracle Web Server Users is same as PL/SQL agent virtual path
For example, in Apache Web Server with Jserv or Tomcat the urls:
http://server:port/servlets/plsql/pkg.proc
http://server:port/servlets/xml/pkg.proc
Sets plsql and xml as dad string, then this values must be exists
in the global.alias sring.
Work with multiple zones definition in servlet engine.
The servlet zones argument must be point to the same properties files and Servlets class
See servlet.properties for more details, here an example for the url showed.
The second example is routed to the Cocoon main entry point, then Cocoon recognize the
producer parameter value and route the request to the DB Prism producer.

to guarantee reset all packages variables and global states (OWS 3.0)
In Oracle Lite support you has to write StateFull code in com.prism.polite.DBMS_Session class
If true, DB Prism don't calls to Reset Session, and then, global variables of packages, for example, persists
across differents http calls, this no guarantee same connection objects to the same client
for this purpose use Transactions and leave this parameter with the default value.

a valid positive number

 |  |  |
 |
Using the Resource Manager, you associate URIs with the operations on
transactions (begin, commit, and rollback). When a user invokes one of these URIs,
the corresponding transaction operation is performed by the ResourceManager.
These URIs can be mapped to stored procedures that
display appropriate pages to the user. For example, the begin transaction URI
could display to the user a list of items to add to his or her shopping cart, the
commit transaction URI could display to the user a list of purchased items, and
the rollback transaction URI could display to the user a page that asks if he wants
to drop the existing shopping cart and start another one.
Between the begin and the commit or rollback URI, the user invokes other URIs that
call procedures to perform some action on the database. These procedures might or
might not belong to a transaction. If the URI belongs to a transaction, the actions
performed by that procedure would be committed or rolled back when the transaction
ends. If the URI does not belong to the transaction, it is not affected by the
transaction, and Prism treats it as a regular request (changes made by that URI are
committed upon completion).
URIs belonging to a transaction usually invoke procedures
within a package.
The sequence of URIs for a stored procedures within the database when invoked
would look like the following:
-- begin a transaction
http://host:port/servlet/demo/test.txn_begin
-- the first operation in the transaction
http://host:port/servlet/demo/test.txn_update1
-- the second operation in the transaction
http://host:port/servlet/demo/test.txn_update2
-- some more operations
-- commit the transaction
http://host:port/servlet/demo/test.txn_commit

Manager.dad.CacheScheme
|
A valid cache scheme
|
FixedWait
|
OracleConnectionCacheImpl class supports three connection cache schemes.
Dynamic In this scheme, you can create new pooled connections
above and beyond the maximum limit, but each one is automatically closed and freed
as soon as the logical connection instance that it provided is no longer in use.
FixedNoWait In this scheme, the maximum limit cannot be exceeded
Requests for connection when the maximum has already been reached will return an
error page.
FixedWait Same as the "fixed with no wait" scheme except that
a request for a new connection will wait if the limit for the number of connection
has been reached. In this case, the connection request waits until another client
releases a connection.

This parameter is unused by this Connection Cache implementation, but if you
left it in blank DBPrism will try to connect in dynamic mode, that is DBPrism
will prompt the username and password through a browser popup.
