Best practice when developing APEX apps and using a SVN repository

Hi experts,
I wanted to get your opinion on best practice regarding how to use SVN and APEX combined.
The idea is basically how to structure and how to save APEX apps the best way in a repository.
I am currently working with a custom SVN structure, not using the default TRUNC/TAGS one : every app has a folder , under every app folder i have PAge number folders, and for each page reports, regions and global objects separated.
This helps me because its more readable then saving the whole page export, its good for small changes and i have a clear overview of every bit and piece.
What is everybody else using or is there a best practice to follow here that i dont know?
Kind regards,
Alex

Something like this might help: https://testflightapp.com/
Concevably, you could roll your own internal service if that particular one doesn't suit you. (I don't have any knowledge about how they are doing it, but it shouldn't be hard to figure out since Apple's constraining rules would only allow a few possibilities.)
USB app install and debugging isn't supported on iOS. You have to use wireless.
Another option specifically for multi-touch dev/testing, is to use an Android device.

Best Practice in maintaining multiple apps and user logins

Hi,
My company is just starting to use APEX, and none of us (the developers) have worked on this before either. It is greatly appreciated if we can get some help here.
We have developed quite a few applications in the same workspace. Now, we are going to setup UAT and PRD environments and also trying to understand what the best practice is to maintain multiple apps and user logins.
Many of you have already worked on APEX environment for sometime, can you please provide some input?
Should we create multiple apps(projects) for one department or should we create one app for one department?
Currently we have created multiple apps for one department, but, we are not sure if a user can login once and be able to access to all the authenticated apps.
Thank you,
LC

LC,
I am not sure how much of this applies to your situation - but I will share what I have done.
I built a single 700+ page application for my department - other areas create separate smaller applications.
The approach I chose is flexible enough to accomdate both.
I built a separate access control application(Control) in its own schema.
We use database authenication fo this app - an oracle account is required.
We prefer to use LDAP for authentication for the user applications.
For users that LDAP is not option - an encrypted password is stored - reset via email.
We use position based security - priviliges are based on job functions.
We have applications, appilcations have roles , roles have access to components(tabs,buttons,unmasked card numbers,etc.)
We have positions that are granted application roles - they inherit access to the role components.
Users have a name, a login, a position, and a site.
We have users on both the East Coast and the West Coast, we use the site in a sys_context
and views to emulate VPD. We also use the role components,sys_contexts and views to mask/unmask
card numbers without rewriting the dependent objects(querys,reports,views,etc.)
The position based security has worked well, when someone moves,
we change the position they are assigned to and they immediately have the privileges they need.
If you are interested I can rpovide more detail.

Best practice to develop internet app integrating with backend R/3 modules

While we wait to upgrade from R/3 4.6c, going forward we want to stop investing in ITS Flow Logic applications.
What is the best practice around using backend RFCs/BAPIs to expose SAP functionality as a web application that is accessible on the internet? One thought looks like using WAS 6.4 - utilizing JRA to call RFCs and using JSP/Servlet; another is to use Webdynpro based development. Will appreciate some architecture advice along side - especially if we also wanted internet surfers to set up user accounts. Thanks!

Hi Vito,
I do have the same situation as you and also some of the guys mentioned above as well. I have Portal only users and also users who uses the SAP GUI.
Thus, what I would advise, taking into consideration of audit as well, is to have the below scenerios:
1) Users who login to backend with SAP GUI on Citrix only
We have changed the system parameter: login/password_change_for_SSO=2
The password change dialog box appears and the password must be changed (input: old and new password). Also we have setup SNC (CyberSafe) so that in our SAP GUI, users can click on the system with SNC setup and login to backend without having to enter userID and password
2) Users who login to backend with SAP GUI on client (local)
Users will login with userID and password
3) Portal user with SSO and no login to backend vwith SAP GUI
Portal users will have their password deactivated.
Explaination to Audit for Portal users:
We have 90days password reset on Windows (AD). So our Portal users are respecting the audit request of having 90days password reset, but instead of having it in SAP, its in our Windows. Furthermore, SSO is setup as such that the coinnection for these Portal users to the backend is secure.
We are not able to set login/password_change_for_SSO=3 as we have sites which does not use Citrix. Thus, these sites will have local SAP GUI install.
Hope that can share some experience of mine to those who are also in my past situation.

Best practice to develop & keyword Jpeg files - Use of virtual copies

There is no sidecar file attached to Jpeg file and I understand all modification on the Jpeg slightly deterioriate the file quality.
Therefore, is it advisable to use vitual copies for all modifications?
Would use use them for trial and errors procedure, then apply whatever settings retained to the Jpeg file?
Or would it be better to leave the original Jpeg altogether untouched and stick to the virtual copy once modified?
What about keywords applied at several stages before and after usig the develop module.
Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Would you advise to store the metadata in the file itself IN ADDITION to where they are located in the catalog?
How to proceed?
Would it make a difference in the export process?
Storing metadata in the file itself is a good idea if you ever think you might share the photo with others, or with another application (other than Lightroom). And I think almost everyone will be doing one of these things at some point.
You would want to turn on the option that automatically stores the metadata in xmp. Edit > Catalog Settings > Metadata, check the box that says Automatically Write Changes into XMP
Would it make a difference in the export process? Probably unnoticeable fractions of a second.

Best practice when using Tangosol with an app server

Hi,
I'm wondering what is the best practice when using Tangosol with an app server (Websphere 6.1 in this case). I've been able to set it up using the resource adapter, tried using distributed transactions and it appears to work as expected - I've also been able to see cache data from another app server instance.
However, it appears that cache data vanishes after a while. I've not yet been able to put my finger on when, but garbage collection is a possibility I've come to suspect.
Data in the cache survives the removal of the EJB, but somewhere later down the line it appear to vanish. I'm not aware of any expiry settings for the cache that would explain this (to the best of my understanding the default is "no expiry"), so GC came to mind. Would this be the explanation?
If that would be the explanation, what would be a better way to keep the cache from being subject to GC - to have a "startup class" in the app server that holds on to the cache object, or would there be other ways? Currently the EJB calls getCacheAdapter, so I guess Bad Things may happen when the EJB is removed...
Best regards,

Hi Gene,
I found the configuration file embedded in coherence.jar. Am I supposed to replace it and re-package coherence.jar?
If I put it elsewhere (in the "classpath") - is there a way I can be sure that it has been found by Coherence (like a message in the standard output stream)? My experience with Websphere is that "classpath" is a rather ...vague concept, we use the J2CA adapter which most probably has a different class loader than the EAR that contains the EJB, and I would rather avoid to do a lot of trial/error corrections to a file just to find that it's not actually been used.
Anyway, at this stage my tests are still focused on distributed transactions/2PC/commit/rollback/recovery, and we're nowhere near 10,000 objects. As a matter of fact, we haven't had more than 1024 objects in these app servers. In the typical scenario where I've seen objects "fade away", there has been only one or two objects in the test data. And they both disappear...
Still confused,
/Per

Inquire about the best laptop specifications for Developing Windows Apps and 3D modelling Animation using "Kinect for Windows v2"?

I need some help in choosing laptop that is most compatible with "Kinect for Windows v2"; in order to develop Windows Apps, and 3D modelling Animation and Character Design. Which is better (Specifications):
HP Pavilion Notebook PC 15-p150ne
AMD A10-5745M +
AMD Radeon R7 M260 (2 GB DDR3L dedicated) +
4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3, OR
HP Pavilion Notebook PC 15-p034ne
Intel Core i5-4210U + NVIDIA GeForce 840M (2 GB DDR3 dedicated) + 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3L

The second system with the Intel chipset will more than likely have the Intel USB3 chipset required for Kinect. As for GPU they are similar, but the i5 with DDR3 1600MHZ ram is a better option. Keep in mind, if you are doing anything in-depth for
3D, a laptop isn't the best options, but if you have to go mobile then you have to decide what is best for your requirements.

Best practice to develop the news web part to retrieve news data across the farms

Hi,
We have developed the News Web part. The functionality it pulls the news from other SharePoint Farms and display it in the site. Currently we are using secure store service to to connect to different FARM to retrieve the news from that FARM.
The issue with this approach is that every time user hits the page it will always hit the Secure Store service.There are almost 80K users who will be using this web part. Moreover this web part connects to multiple sites for multiple news from different
division.What should be the best practice to develop such kind of web part without consuming the server resources and keep hitting the server till we get the new news.News does not change very often.
Regards
Rajaniesh

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to know which is the best way to handle the large complication of SharePoint cross farm retrieving data.
If you are developing the custom web part to retrieve data from other farm, I suggest you can firstly create a custom timer job to get data hourly in the backend and restore the data in a list. Then you can create a web part to link to the list to display
the data.
For cross farm accessing data, I suggest you can create a custom web service to achieve it.
Also, you can use ajax to display the web part data asynchronously. It will improve the performance and reduce the server pressure.
Here are some detailed articles for your reference:

What is the best practice for developing web service?

Hi All,
I'm a newbee to web services...
I was wondering what would be the best approach in developing a web service,
using tools or programmatic approach?
If I use WebLogic Workshop, am I tied to a vendor?
Is it possible for me to develop web services using workshop and deploy in
another app server..?
I would appreciate if somebody could give me a pointer to start.
I have already referred BEA's docs.
I'm still confused on a good starting point on the best approach to develop
protable web services.
Thanks in advance for any inputs.

K K-
You have a very valid point on the simplify or complicate matters. If you are
going for clean and not-so-time-centric code, then there are several different
programs and packages out there you can choose from.
Since you are specialized in J2EE, than the Sun package may be what you are looking
for. BEA's classes simplify much of the work you will be doing, but you could
emulate their classes or extend yours above the functions provided in theirs.
It all boils down to how much work are you willing to do.
If you are asking for more detailed, coding 'Design Patterns' to utilize, I would
wait for a few more posts from other folks as my work often requires me to utilize
the tools provided.
Sincerely,
Eric Ballou

Eric,
Thanks for the response.
I was also looking at Sun's WSDP 1.1, which is more programmatic approach.
Some how, I feel being a J2EE developer, I should go on the direction
of the
programmatic approach.
Using the tools could simplify or complicate things. Also, the Workshop
samples import all weblogic specific packages.
My code looks so dirty with many vendor specific packages being imported.
Could you give me your suggestions for a clean and neat approach?
I would personally prefer to avoid the quick and dirty approach.
Thanks again.

The best approach in developing portable web services is knowing whatyou
are
planning on using them for as well as how much is willing to be spent,etc.
BEA's Workshop is portable to other frameworks, but the ease ofintegrating a
developed client or a developed server can very greatly. Even moreof an
issue
is migration from one framework to another. If you choose to developin
Workshop
and your company later deploys .Net solutions, some of your work mayhave
to be
redone unless the company is willing to keep portions of the 'old'system
around
until new versions of the service are available. However, Workshophas
several
ant tools available that would assist you in deploying to other appservers or
even a stand-alone application should you need cross framework abilities.
If you are just starting out in web services, http://www.webservices.org
is a
good place to start checking out vendors in the space.

Best practice to monitor 10gR3 OSB performance using JMX API?

Hi guys,
I need some advice on the best practice to monitor 10gR3 OSB performance using JMX API.
Jus to show I have done my home work, I managed to get the JMX sample code from
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13159_01/osb/docs10gr3/jmx_monitoring/example.html#wp1109828
working.
The following is the list of options I am think about:
* Set up: I have a cluster of one 1 admin server with 2 managed servers, which managed server runs an instance of OSB
* What I try to achieve:
- use JMX API to collect OSB stats data periodically as in sample code above then save data as a record to a
     database table
Options/ideas:
1. Simplest approach: Run the modified version of JMX sample on the Admin Server to save stats data to database
regularly. I can't see problems with this one ...
2. Use WLI to schedule the Task of collecting stats data regularly. May be overkill if option 1 above is good for production
3. Deploy a simple web app on Admin Server, say a simple servlet that displays a simple page to start/stop and configure
data collection interval for the timer
What approach would you experts recommend?
BTW, the caveats os using JMX in http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13159_01/osb/docs10gr3/jmx_monitoring/concepts.html#wp1095673
says
     Oracle strongly discourages using this API in a concurrent manner with more than one thread or process. This is because a reset performed in
     one thread or process is not visible to another threads or processes. This caveat also applies to resets performed from the Monitoring Dashboard of
     the Oracle Service Bus Console, as such resets are not visible to this API.
Under what scenario would I be breaking this rule? I am a little worried about its statement
     discourages using this API in a concurrent manner with more than one thread or process
Thanks in advance,
Sam

Hi Manoj,
Thanks for getting back. I am afraid configuring aggregation interval from Dashboard doesn't solve problem as I need to collect stats data of endpoint URI or in hourly or daily basis, then output to CSV files so line graphs can be drawn for chosen applications.
Just for those who may be interested. It's not possible to use SQL to query database tables to extract OSB stats for a specified time period, say 9am - 5pm. I raised a support case already and the response I got back is 'No'.
That means using JMX API will be the way to go :)
Has anyone actually done this kind of OSB stats report and care to give some pointers?
I am thinking of using 7 or 1 days as the aggregation interval set in Dashboard of OSB admin console then collects stats data using JMX(as described in previous link) hourly using WebLogic Server JMX Timer Service as described in
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12840_01/wls/docs103/jmxinst/timer.html instead of Java's Timer class.
Not sure if this is the best practice.
Thanks,
Regards,
Sam
