what is the difference between oracle reports 6i and oracle
reports 10g? give atleast 10 differences? (plz give the
answer vvvvvvvvvvv.urgent)

Answer Posted / ranjit simon john

1) Oracle Reports 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) provides an OLAP
data source that can be used to create reports based on
OLAP data.
2)In Oracle Reports 10g Release 2 (10.1.2), the use of
keywords SERVER and USERID with SRW.RUN_REPORT is
deprecated.
3) In Oracle Reports 10g Release 2 (10.1.2), you can call
Java methods using the ORA_JAVA package and the Java
Importer. This reduces the need to have user exits in a
report and allows for a more open and portable deployment.
4) Oracle Reports 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) provides you with
two executables that perform the same function as rwcgi60:
rwcgi.exe (on Win32) and rwcgi (on UNIX). However, all of
these CGI executables are deprecated. Instead, use standard
Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) methods of making a Web
connection: use either a servlet URL or a JSP URL.
5)The formatting-related SRW built-in parameters that were
applicable only to client-server environments (for example,
SRW.BLINK_STYLE) are deprecated in Oracle Reports 10g
Release 2 (10.1.2).
6)Object Linking & Embeding (OLE2) functionality is
deprecated in Oracle Reports 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) because
it is only applicable to client-server environments.
7)In Oracle Reports 10g Release 2 (10.1.2), you must start,
shut down, monitor, and manage the Reports Server through
the Oracle Process Manager and Notification Server (OPMN)
and Oracle Enterprise Manager.
8) In Oracle Reports 10g Release 2 (10.1.2), all reports
are run through the Reports Server, and you can no longer
submit requests directly to the Reports Engine. This allows
you to take full advantage of the Reports Server for
security and distribution functionality. It also allows for
a more streamlined architecture and consistency within the
product.
9)In Oracle Reports 10g Release 2 (10.1.2), the command
line keyword BACKGROUND specifies whether a report on the
server should be run synchronously (NO) or asynchronously
(YES). It can be used only with the executables rwclient,
rwservlet, and rwcgi.
10)In Oracle Reports 10g Release 2 (10.1.2), the command
line option BATCH=YES specifies that the relevant
executable should run in no-UI mode (that is, all terminal
input and output should be suppressed). This command line
keyword can be used only with the executables rwserver and
rwconverter.
