How are Partial SDV default values affected by a migration or upgrade?

Oracle Central Designer is designed so that the behavior defined for Partial SDV does not change when you migrate or upgrade from a version of Oracle Central Designer prior to version 6.3. In Oracle Central Designer 6.3.x, you now have the ability to update Partial SDV settings for Oracle InForm sites globally within Oracle Central Designer.

  • In versions of Oracle InForm prior to version 6.3, there was only one value stored for each of the following settings for a site, and they could only be edited in the Oracle InForm user interface on a site-by-site basis. These are now known as Site Values.
    • SVFirstNSubject
    • SVAutoSelectRate
  • When you migrate to Oracle InForm 6.3.x, two new values plus a new parameter are added to the database for these settings. These new settings are collectively known as the Default Values.
    • SVFirstNSubject = 0
    • SVAutoSelectRate = 100
    • SVDefaultInclude = Include

      Because this setting is new in Oracle InForm 6.3.x, the Site Value is automatically populated with Include, which matches the actual behavior prior to Oracle InForm 6.3. As a result, the behavior will not change.
