Forms Java EE Application Deployment Descriptors
The Forms Services Java EE application EAR (Enterprise Archive) file formsapp.ear
is deployed to the WLS_FORMS (Oracle WebLogic Managed Server) when you configure Oracle Forms.
This results in the creation of a directory structure under $DOMAIN_HOME /servers/WLS_FORMS/tmp/_WL_user/formsapp_12.2.1/<random_string1>/APP-INF
directory that is similar to the following:
./APP-INF ./APP-INF/lib ./APP-INF/lib/frmconfig.jar ./APP-INF/lib/frmconfigmbeans.jar ./META-INF ./META-INF/application.xml ./META-INF/jazn-data.xml ./META-INF/jps-config.xml ./META-INF/mbeans.xml ./META-INF/weblogic-application.xml
This following directory structure is created under $DOMAIN_HOME/servers/WLS_FORMS/tmp/_WL_user/formsapp_12.2.1/<random_string2>/war/WEB-INF
directory.
./WEB-INF ./WEB-INF/lib ./WEB-INF/lib/frmsrv.jar ./WEB-INF/web.xml ./WEB-INF/weblogic.xml
Note:
The sub-directories in $DOMAIN_HOME/servers/WLS_FORMS/tmp/_WL_user/formsapp_12.2.1
are created by the nostage deployment process of Oracle WebLogic Server. They are named with a random string. For example, e18uoi, wb1h9e and so on.
Deployment descriptors:
-
application.xml
andweblogic-application.xml
define the structure of the EAR file. -
web.xml
defines the aliasesfrmservlet
andlservlet
for the Forms servlet and the Forms Listener servlet. -
weblogic.xml
defines the context parameters and any user defined virtual directory mappings.
