Behind the Scenes
As we have seen in the “Understanding the Chart Region” section, Oracle APEX generates the HTML to
call the AnyChart Flash object which is located in
#IMAGE_PREFIX#flashchart/anychart_5/swf/
(
#IMAGE_PREFIX#
is usually
/i/
). Most charts will use
OracleAnyChart.swf
. When Oracle APEX generates
the call to the specific AnyChart object it also passes parameters with it. The most important parameter
is
XMLFile
(for example,
#HOST#apex_util.flash?p=&APP_ID.:4:&APP_SESSION.:FLOW_FLASH_CHART5_
R#REGION_ID#
) which is actually a call to a procedure called
apex_util.flash
which has some parameters
(Figure 2-34). This procedure is not included in the documentation, so to find the definition of this
procedure you have to look in the source code of the package, which you find under the user
APEX_040000.
