I was learning about SchemaSpy lately. Was amazed with the UI representation by graphviz.
But had a doubt whether we can create custom anomaly, if so how do we create custom anomalies(Step by step approach).
Tried to create custom anomaly but didn't know how to do. Need some help with this.

I am looking for a source to teach me how to create an oracle form. I don't want to create a form by using oracle form builder, I would like to understand how to create a *.fmb file.
Do you have any good source to read about it? I would like to create a custom IDE that's why I want to know how I can create an Oracle form.
please advice me.
You can use the open api functionality in oracle forms to make your own fmb files.

You don't want to do that.
Back in 1990's, Forms 3.0, when a form source was an .INP file which was a pure TXT file, it had its own structure so you might have tried to do everything in a text editor - define blocks, triggers, PL/SQL code, whatever. I don't know a single person who did that - that's what Forms is used for, so that you - as a developer - could pay attention to development and let Forms do the boring job for you.
Today, .FMB is not a textual file at all so you can't even do that.
I'd suggest you to learn how to develop good/fast/effective/etc. Forms applications, and - again - let Forms do the rest.
As of the rest of your question (creating a custom IDE), did you try to create a query builder? It is way simpler than creating a form, but still quite complex and certainly isn't something you can do in a matter of days.
Anyway, good luck with anything you're up to, I admire your enthusiasm.
Assume you have to develop an app, which needs a completely customized user interface so that you can not use any standard UI objects in Xcode.
How would you proceed to create such an user interface? Would you use the interface builder? Would you create something like a master parent UIView? What are the best practices to achieve this?
What would be the most elegant solution with less code duplication?
If by "complete customization" you mean the look and feel of the app,
then I suggest to design the IB objects you require using some design IDE's such as photoshop and then use those slices for your project.
This is the best option I find so far to get a complete customized look with minimal code, and by minimal, I mean you don't actually require any coding. You can do this complete customization within your Interface builder.
However, I don't think you can completely ignore standard UI objects as you require them to add basic functionality.
If customized controls are what you are looking for, then I suggest you to create separate custom control classes so that they can be reused anywhere in your project, or in other projects too.
Here are two wonderful tutorials on custom controls:

I have been deliberating and deliberating. Orchard is clearly powerful and flexible, contains some very sophisticated code. I need to create some specific Wizard/Workflow functionality. I am also using Entity framework instead of NHibernate. It seems to me that it will be better to write this application seperately using simpler code, which I can refactor, and integrate into Orchard via a Wrapper Module, rather than getting caught up in writing a module afresh for the complete Wizard/Workflow. As I say I am learning MVC3 and do not want to overcomplicate my life, just deliver a solution. I will certainly use Orchard for typical CMS website features.
I also still have an unresolved issue of representing Organisations above users, which I have already resolved outside Orchard. This is only needed for the application rather than content management. So in the short term it may be that I keep the authentication seperate.
Does this sound the most pragmatic approach. If there was a good existing module then the decision would be easier. I think they are considering workflow for 1.7, but we are not there yet.
Many thanks,
Ed
It does sound like a safe path, yes.
I am trying to create a report in Magento. I followed the tutorial from Alan Storm on getting things started in the admin panel http://alanstorm.com/magento_admin_controllers and I now have a grasp of how to get the controllers working in the admin panel.
I would like to take this to the next step and create reports. The reports that I am creating I think I just want them to work like the grid widgets that are used throughout the entire Magento admin panel.
However, I am hard pressed to find a good tutorial on how to create these. If someone could explain how these work or point me towards a tutorial that worked for them, I would be very grateful.
* UPDATE *
An SQL based approach, to consider:

Personally I've tried implementing Reports the "Magento" way and found its much easier and simpler to just use the Grid instead. However here are some of the bookmarks I have in regards to building out reports.

Hope these help, I have to admit the way the way you build reports in Magento is very screwy, at least to me the approach seems very backwards.
We are using an oracle database in a project. Most of the tables represents classes or objects in the application. The application currently doesn't have a substantial amount of documentation. I am using StarUML to make up some class diagrams and such for other developers on the project to increase their understanding of the overall project. Using the database tables as a starting guide, and then making modifications to the diagrams as needed would be the absolute easiest and quickest way to get these set up. Is there any free applications that could assist me in pulling the schema out of the Oracle database and create class diagrams from them? Currently, there are 98 "objects" or classes closely modeled in the database and to create these all in a modeling application from scratch would be very time consuming.
You don't say what your target language is.
You can use Hibernate to generate schemas from an object model and mapping.
Middlegen is a tool that can create Java classes from schemas. Maybe those will help.
A 1:1 object-to-table mapping isn't always the best way to do things. It's hardly object-oriented. I'd view it as a starting point only.
I looked (briefly) through the StarUML documentation and don't see any way to import a database definition, so I'm not sure how you do this, sorry.
If you can find a way to get the data into StarURL, you could use Oracle's free SQL Developer tool to get the table definitions out as DDL or XML.
I know that Microsoft's Visio tool (Pro & Enterprise editions) can read selected tables from your Oracle database and generate models from that, but it ain't cheap. I really like Allround Automation's PL/SQL Developer as a reasonably-priced IDE targeted at programmers (vs DBAs) and I know that will generate diagrams locally. But I'm not sure it can save the metadata in a form you could use in StarUML.
Good luck,

It's a shame you didn't bother to respond to replies to your own question. Or am I misunderstanding the standard practice here that people just give points and move on?
