Need help with user ID for this forum
I have problem that I can't seem to get resolved online which involves my Apple Support user ID... Sorry to post this here, but I don't know where to go for help.
I have been a member of the apple community for a long time (since 2002) but my login ID and user ID seem to have been disconnected. Happened when I tried to sign in once and had all kinds of problems. Now I've created a new user ID but would like my old one back. I've tried several times to get my original user ID back, but there seems to be no way to get it back... If I sign up for the user ID, it tells me that it is taken (because its mine).
Can you help me? Is there a real person I can contact who can help me?
Thanks for any support.

Need help with calculator project for an assignment...
Hi all, I please need help with my calculator project that I have to do for an assignment.
Here is the project's specifications that I need to do"
"""Create a console calculator applicaion that:
* Takes one command line argument: your name and surname. When the
program starts, display the date and time with a welcome message for the
user.
* Display all the available options to the user. Your calculator must include
the arithmetic operations as well as at least five scientific operations of the
Math class.
-Your program must also have the ability to round a number and
truncate it.
-When you multiply by 2, you should not use the '*' operator to perform the
operation.
-Your program must also be able to reverse the sign of a number.
* Include sufficient error checking in your program to ensure that the user
only enters valid input. Make use of the String; Character, and other
wrapper classes to help you.
* Your program must be able to do conversions between decimal, octal and
hex numbers.
* Make use of a menu. You should give the user the option to end the
program when entering a certain option.
* When the program exits, display a message for the user, stating the
current time, and calculate and display how long the user used your
program.
* Make use of helper classes where possible.
* Use the SDK to run your program."""
When the program starts, it asks the user for his/her name and surname. I got the program to ask the user again and again for his/her name and surname
when he/she doesn't insert anything or just press 'enter', but if the user enters a number for the name and surname part, the program continues.
Now my question is this: How can I restrict the user to only enter 'letters' (and spaces of course) but allow NO numbers for his/her surname??
Here is the programs code that I've written so far:

What you could do is checking the input string for numbers. If it contains numbers, just reprompt for the Name.
AND you might want to ask yourself why the heck a calculator needs to know the users Name. -
Need help with Java app for user input 5 numbers, remove dups, etc.
I'm new to Java (only a few weeks under my belt) and struggling with an application. The project is to write an app that inputs 5 numbers between 10 and 100, not allowing duplicates, and displaying each correct number entered, using the smallest possible array to solve the problem. Output example:
Please enter a number: 45
Number stored.
45
Please enter a number: 54
Number stored.
45 54
Please enter a number: 33
Number stored.
45 54 33
etc.
I've been working on this project for days, re-read the book chapter multiple times (unfortunately, the book doesn't have this type of problem as an example to steer you in the relatively general direction) and am proud that I've gotten this far. My problems are 1) I can only get one item number to input rather than a running list of the 5 values, 2) I can't figure out how to check for duplicate numbers. Any help is appreciated.
My code is as follows:
import java.util.Scanner; // program uses class Scanner
public class Array
public static void main( String args[] )
// create Scanner to obtain input from command window
Scanner input = new Scanner( System.in);
// declare variables
int array[] = new int[ 5 ]; // declare array named array
int inputNumbers = 0; // numbers entered
while( inputNumbers < array.length )
// prompt for user to input a number
System.out.print( "Please enter a number: " );
int numberInput = input.nextInt();
// validate the input
if (numberInput >=10 && numberInput <=100)
System.out.println("Number stored.");
else
System.out.println("Invalid number. Please enter a number within range.");
// checks to see if this number already exists
boolean number = false;
// display array values
for ( int counter = 0; counter < array.length; counter++ )
array[ counter ] = numberInput;
// display array values
System.out.printf( "%d\n", array[ inputNumbers ] );
// increment number of entered numbers
inputNumbers++;
} // end close ArrayYikes, there is a much better way to go about this that is probably within what you have already learned, but since you are a student and this is how you started, let's just concentrate on fixing what you got.
First, as already noted by another poster, your formatting is really bad. Formatting is really important because it makes the code much more readable for you and anyone who comes along to help you or use your code. And I second that posters comment that brackets should always be used, especially for beginner programmers. Unfortunately beginner programmers often get stuck thinking that less lines of code equals better program, this is not true; even though better programmers often use far less lines of code.
// validate the input
if (numberInput >=10 && numberInput <=100)
System.out.println("Number stored.");
else
System.out.println("Invalid number. Please enter a number within range."); Note the above as you have it.
// validate the input
if (numberInput >=10 && numberInput <=100)
System.out.println("Number stored.");
else
System.out.println("Invalid number. Please enter a number within range."); Note how much more readable just correct indentation makes.
// validate the input
if (numberInput >=10 && numberInput <=100) {
System.out.println("Number stored.");
else {
System.out.println("Invalid number. Please enter a number within range.");
} Note how it should be coded for a beginner coder.
Now that it is readable, exam your code and think about what you are doing here. Do you really want to print "Number Stored" before you checked to ensure it is not a dupe? That could lead to some really confused and frustrated users, and since the main user of your program will be your teacher, that could be unhealthy for your GPA.
Since I am not here to do your homework for you, I will just give you some advice, you only need one if statement to do this correctly, you must drop the else and fix the if. I tell you this, because as a former educator i know the first thing running through beginners minds in this situation is to just make the if statement empty, but this is a big no no and even if you do trick it into working your teacher will not be fooled nor impressed and again your GPA will suffer.
As for the rest, you do need a for loop inside your while loop, but not where or how you have it. Inside the while loop the for loop should be used for checking for dupes, not for overwriting every entry in the array as you currently have it set up to do. And certainly not for printing every element of the array each time a new element is added as your comments lead me to suspect you were trying to do, that would get real annoying really fast again resulting in abuse of your GPA. Printing the array should be in its own for loop after the while loop, or even better in its own method.
As for how to check for dupes, well, you obviously at least somewhat understand loops and if statements, thus you have all the tools needed, so where is the problem?

Need help with a script for moving bulk users to another OU and removing/assigning groups
I've never used PowerShell before and have been asked to track down a script that can move bulk users from one OU to another, and remove and assign new group membership. I've been googling it for about 30 minutes and haven't really gotten anywhere. If
somebody can point me in the right direction or give some tips I'd greatly appreciate it. I'm sure this kind of task has been done by several people in similar environments I just haven't been able to find those people/examples.Here's what I've got so far...
Moving to new OU
CSV constructed like below...
DN
TargetOU
“CN=John R, OU=BB,OU=ES,OU=Students,OU=OSD,DC=usd233,=DC=local”
"OU=PRT,OU=MS,OU=Students,OU=OSD,DC=usd233,DC=local"
Import-Module activedirectory
$UserList = Import-Csv "c:\yourCSVhere.csv"
foreach ($User in $UserList) {
$User.DN
$User.TargetOU
Move-ADObject -Identity $User.DN -TargetPath $User.TargetOU
Would this work? I also need to remove the user from two groups and add them to two different groups as well. Would I need to use the addUsertoGroups and removeUserfromGroups commands? -
Crypto newb: Need help with encrypting data for offline Swing app
Hi all,
I'm VERY new to cryptography. Can somebody point me in the right direction? I've created a Swing application that is intended to be used offline (no network connections are established by the app). I need to export XML files from this application, to be transported via floppy to another instance of the application on a different computer for import. The information is sensitive and must be encrypted!
I started looking into AES and using asymmetric ciphers (public/private key encryption). But then I realized that if Jane is exporting a file for Bob to view, she won't have access to Bob's public key (no network access). Ugghh!
I noticed another solution in this forum where the person suggested using password encryption. It was an old post and I think it used DES. Anyway, password encryption doesn't seem too secure.
So, I thought I'd create a symmetic key (correct term?) once, store it in the program directory, and distribute it with the application installer. That way, everyone would have the same key and would be able to encrypt/decrypt each others files. Right? Err... I'm not sure.
Like I said, I'm a newb at crypto. If someone could suggest the best/most secure way to accomplish this, I would be eternally grateful.
PLEASE HELP!!! :-D
Thanks in advance.Sorry, Grant. I must've posted that last one just
after your response. I was intending the message to
be for Anand. Heh - you have no idea how many times I've done the same thing. It's an artifact of the asynchronous nature of message boards.
Your response is very helpful. Out of
curiosity, does my last post provide any more insight
that would change your mind? Or do you still believe
that using password encryption and letting the user
choose/provide the password is the best solution?Well, as you noted, giving everyone two sets of keypairs is semantically equivalent to giving everyone a single symmetric key. And, as I've noted, it's completely INsecure - everyone who gets access to an install disk, either legitimately or no, can read every transmission your app makes forever after. Cryptographically speaking, this is Not A Good Thing.
The advantage of PBE is that it's easy for your users to exchange keys when their machines can't see each other. The real key here is that your app, if you really want it to be secure, MUST allow/require that transmission between Alice and Bob use a different key than that between Alice and Carlos or Bob and Carlos - otherwise, if Eve compromises any user of your software, ALL users are compromised.
I'd go with PBE, just because other alternatives are painful for your end users. You could use generated KeyPairs, for example, if you provide a means for users to exchange public keys. If you display Bob's public key in encoded, String-able form, then Bob can either email that to Alice or read it off to her over the phone. Into your app Alice loads/types in that public key, and the app now knows how to secure communications with Bob.
Public keys are large, though, and people screw them up typing them in. And many users have TERRIBLE key discipline - if Bob loses access to his private key, he can't read anything Alice sends. And if his private key is readable on some public shared folder (which happens with a totally-frightening regularity), then we're back to no security at all.
Use one of the triple-DES PBE Ciphers, and get on with making your app do what you really want it to do, would be my advice. (Free advice, of course, being worth every penny you pay!)
Once again, thanks a bunch!Glad to help.

Small business needing help with additional license for CC for 3 months
(I was prompted to ask a question as a first time user of the forum but it seems to have disappeared which is a little frustrating. So here I go again, hope this time it works...)
I'm a small business with a single user license for Creative Cloud which I've been subscribing to for about a year now. I have a foreign student coming to do training and get experience with us for 3 months - as his area of learning is Adobe design he will need access to Adobe CC.
I can't afford to buy a year's subscription for him but I was wondering if it would be possible to buy a 3 month's student license for Adobe CC. He starts on the 3rd of March so this is quite urgent...
I couldn't find a contact number to talk to a sales person in Ireland so I hope some one can help me before the 3rd of March.
Thanks,
Niamh
(Adobe user since 1999)No pre-paid cards in Ireland it seems. And my only option for month-to-month is to create a new Adobe ID and get Adobe Apps at €25/app/month. I'd love to up-grade to the Team subscription but it seems I can't get out of my one-year subscription in time to take advantage of the offer that goes out of date by the end of Feb. My renewal happens in June which means if I cancelled I'd have to pay 50% of the remaining months on top of paying for the new team sub... Why is it so hard to just get my student covered for 3 months - Adobe doesn't like small businesses, I guess we're not worth the hassle... Frustrating.

Need help with set up for extensions
I'm new to OA Framework development and am just ramping up (do have years of Java development experience) and could use some help. I've read through the OA Framework Developer Guide and gone through a few of the tutorials. My task is to add some extensions to the R12 Customer Standard pages.
I've looked in the $JAVA_TOP at the following directory structure.
/oracle/apps/ar/cusstd/...
I find java classes and the server.xml files but there are no PG.xml files to work with. Are these located in a different structure? What is the best approach to obtaining the base Oracle source files to start with and for configuring your local development environment to extend R12 OA Framework pages? Do you need to include the entire $JAVA_TOP in your development client environment classpath as well?
Thanks in advance!To run the oracle seeded party create/update page, you can refer <<your Jdeveloper Installation directory>>\jdevhome\jdev\myhtml\OA_HTML\test_fwktutorial.jsp.
Create a new custom jsp similar to test_fwktutorial.jsp. Modify this JSP based on your environment and user setup. Modify the links also. With this, you should run this jsp first. By clicking the link in the JSP run, you can launch party create page.
The error you posted in RED color is thrown because you are trying to modify the web bean hierarchy in the processFormData method. Example, setting some items property to rendered false or true. All these kind of modifications should be done in the proceeRequest method of the controller.
Following is from DEV guide to launch the forms application.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Launching Oracle Applications Forms from OA Framework Pages
To launch an Oracle Applications form from OA Framework, you must first define a button, link or image web
bean. The web bean then relies on the FormsLauncher applet provided by Oracle Applications (AOL/J) to
launch the specified form.
Declarative Implementation
Step 1: In the OA Extension Structure pane, select the region in which you want to create the web bean to
launch an Oracle Applications form. Choose New > Item from the context menu.
Step 2: Set the ID property for the item, in accordance with the OA Framework File Standards, and set the Item
Style property to button, image, or link. You may also launch an Oracle Applications form from a submit
button. See the Runtime Control section below for more details.
Step 3: Set the Destination URI property of the item with a value following this format (replacing the italicized
text as appropriate):
form:responsibilityApplicationShortName:responsibilityKey:securityGroupKey:functionName
For example, if you want to launch the FND Menus form, the Destination URI property should be set to:
form:SYSADMIN:SYSTEM_ADMINISTRATOR:STANDARD:FND_FNDMNMNU
Step 4: If you wish to pass parameters to the form, set the Destination URI property with a value using the
following format (Note that the parameter list is delimited by a space between each "parameter=value" pair):
form:responsibilityApplicationShortName:responsibilityKey:securityGroupKey:functionName:param1=
value1 param2=value2 param3=value3
Note: If you wish to send varchar2 parameter values that contain spaces, use \" to enclose the string value.
For example, to pass in something of the form:
TXN_NUMBER=LT INVOICE 1
Use:
TXN_NUMBER=\"LT INVOICE 1\"
Step 5: Refer to the following Chapter 4 topics for information about additional properties you may need to set
for the specific item: Buttons(Action/Navigation), Buttons (Links), or Images in Your Pages.
*Runtime Control*
There are no special programmatic steps necessary to launch an Oracle Applications form from a button,
image, or link in an OA Framework page. The OAButtonBean, OALinkBean and OAImageBean support the
special form function URL format described above for the Destination URI property. When OA Framework
encounters this special value, it generates the appropriate URL and also adds a hidden IFrame (inline frame)
to the OA Framework page. The hidden IFrame is the target of the FormsLauncher applet provided by Oracle
Applications.
Launching an Oracle Applications Form From a Submit Button
If you wish to launch an Oracle Applications form from a submit button in an OA Framework page, you must
use the OAPageContext.forwardImmediatelyToForm(String url) method from
548
oracle.apps.fnd.framework.webui.OAPageContext. An example of how to use this API is shown in the code
sample below:
public void processFormRequest(OAPageContext pageContext, OAWebBean webBean)
super.processFormRequest(pageContext, webBean);
if (pageContext.getParameter("Apply")!=null)
String destination =
"form:SYSADMIN:SYSTEM_ADMINISTRATOR:STANDARD:FND_FNDMNMNU";
pageContext.forwardImmediatelyToForm(destination);
*Usage Notes*
Microsoft Internet Explorer supports the IFrame element, so when you launch an Oracle Applications form from
OA Framework, only a splash window appears. Any other windows required by the FormsLauncher applet
use(s) the hidden IFrame as the target and therefore remain(s) hidden from the user. Netscape Navigator, on
the other hand, does not support the IFrame element, so in addition to a splash window, the user also sees
another window used by the FormsLauncher applet.

You can simplify it a little by factoring out the date differences:WITH got_d AS

FROM table1
WHERE dt >= ADD_MONTHS ( TRUNC (SYSDATE, 'MON')

AND dt < TRUNC (SYSDATE) + 1
SELECT SUM (CASE WHEN d = 1 THEN qty END) AS day_1
, SUM (CASE WHEN d = 2 THEN qty END) AS day_2
, SUM (CASE WHEN d = 62 THEN qty END) AS day_62
FROM got_d

Need help with LabVIEW code for motor control.
Hi,
My name is Sasi. I am a BME grad student working on my thesis topic of evaluating spine implants for low back pain. For this I am building a test machine that would apply pure moments to a spine specimen. I am using LabVIEW 8.5 to implement control of a brushless AC servo motor. My requirement is,
Step 1: Initialize the motor.
Step 2: Start moving it at a uniform RPM to the right (This RPM value too user can enter).
Step
3: While doin Step 2; simultaneously read torque cell data (Using DAQ
asst.). DAQ o/p is from 0 V to 10 V; 0 V being -10 Nm n
10 V being +10 Nm
Step 4: When Torque value reaches +10 Nm, i.e 10 V, the motor stops.
Step
5: From the position where motor stopped (i.e no need to reset to
initial position) Start moving in the opposite direction at the same
uniform RPM as in Step 2 while reading torque cell data.
Step 6: Once again when torque reaches -10 Nm, i.e. 0 V, the motor should stop.
Step 7: Repeat 'Step 2' to 'Step 6' 3 times.
Step 8: Reset motor postion.
Till now I have managed to get the motor to move forward n backward @ a desired vel, accl, n deceleration for 3 cycles. I am attaching my code. I am having problem inserting the code for reading DAQmx amidst all this. Can anyone help me out.
Thnks,
Sasi.
Solved!

Test_012609.vi 35 KBHi Sasidhar,
I took a look at your problem and I think I have a workable solution for you. I definitely agree with Lynn's suggestion of using parallel loops. This will allow the DAQmx portion to run uninhibited by the motion portion, and vice versa. Plus, you only need to iterate the motion loop whenever the voltage level crosses a threshold. So, by iterating on the motion code in the same loop that you are iterating on DAQmx code, you are essentially wasting processor.
I created a VI that should do what you are wanting. I tested it out myself and it works great. You might have a tweak a few things to apply to your system (like motion board ID and DAQmx physical channel, etc.). I used two parallel loops and event-based programming. Basically the motion loop starts the motor spinning at the specified velocity. Once the motor is spinning, it waits for the DAQmx loop to tell it that the voltage value has crossed the threshold. When the voltage value exceeds the maximum threshold (which I set to a value slightly less than 10 to allow for jitter and saturation), the DAQmx loop signals the motion loop that it can finish its iteration. The motion loop stops the motion, reverses the direction, and starts the motion again. Once motion has started, it again waits for the DAQmx loop to tell it that a threshold has occurred, but this time, it is looking for a minimum threshold. I used "Occurrences" to implement the event-based programming in LabVIEW.
I have commented the code rather thouroughly, so hopefully the comments will answer any remaining questions. The benefit of using event-based programming for this is that you save processor time, and your motion is more closely synchonized with the DAQmx. Instead of iterating the motion loop as fast as you can, checking for updates each time, you just pause it, and wait for the other loop to tell you when to start up again. In the mean time, the processor doesn't have to worry about iterating that loop over and over again. Also, when the occurrence does occur, you catch it immediately, instead of having to wait until the next iteration. Thus, you are more closely synchronized with the DAQmx portion of the code.
I hope this will help you. Please post back if you have any questions about the code or its implementation. Good Luck!

Need help with drive installation for K9N2 SLI Platinum
Hi
I am new to the forum and to MSI
This is my 6th computer build and first time using SATA and PCIe
My hardware includes:
• MSI K9N2 SLI Platinum Motherboard
• Corsair XMS2 TWIN2X4096-6400C5
• GeForce 9800 GT 512MB GDDR3
• AMD Phenom X4 9850 Quad Core Processor, Black Edition 2.5GHz
4MB Cache 2000MHz [4000 MT/s] FSB
• Thermaltake Ruby Orb Aluminum Core CPU Cooler
• UltraX3 850 Watt ATX Modular Power Supply
• [1] Western Digital 200MB7200 ATA133
• [1] Maxtor 80MB ATA133 Drive [Not connected yet]
• [1] Western Digital 500GB 7200RPM 16MB SATA II HARD DRIVE
• [2] Seagate 7200.11 ST3500320AS 500GB SATA Hard Drives With 32 MB Cache
[Not connected]
• LG DVD-RW
• Toshiba DVD-ROM
• AMI Bios
• Antec Full Tower case
The board set up fine, but I can’t figure out how to install my drives. The MSI directions are the worse I’ve ever seen, or should I say non-existent. They don’t even describe the bios entries… I am familiar with the bios, but don’t know all the settings for the board. I set the time and date and had to rearrange my drive placement on the board to have my 2 DVD drives show up on the secondary IDE Channel instead of the primary IDE. The Western Digital 200MB7200 ATA133 is on the primary master IDE. I’m old fashioned so I still use FDISK to erase the old OS and partition the drive… I couldn’t see my SATA drive in FDISK even though I could see it in the bios. Now I want my Western Digital 500GB 7200RPM 16MB SATA II HARD DRIVE to be the system drive and the Western Digital 200MB7200 ATA133 to be a slave drive. My previous boards had raid but I just used them as additional slave drives.
My goals: I want to have redundancy for my personal audio/video and my work. I will use the 2 Seagate 7200.11 ST3500320AS 500GB SATA drives for that.
I also want 2 additional drives not purchased yet for my other data storage needs and for games
My questions are:
Can I use the SATA drive as the system drive if a drive is connected to the primary IDE?
How do I set up Raid on this board? I actually want to use its capabilities this time.
Does this board present any special problems with dual booting XP sp2 and Vista 64bit.
If I put another set of Corsair XMS2 TWIN2X4096-6400C5 in anticipation of installing Vista 64bit will this cause a problem other than windows XP not seeing the additional memory.
Is there additional documentation for this board somewhere?
Please help…I have been working on this thing for 4 days straight. My last build took 2 hours not including software installation. Hope I stated everything you need to know. Thanks in advanceHello!
Advice no. 1 will be not to have everything connected at once. Have the chosen SATA and one of the DVD:s connected and install Windows. (Windows can only boot from bootable devices. It "jumps" all un-bootable.) Once you have a successful boot and happy with it, remove other things from the boot-sequence.
Eh, some of your questions suggest you don't have the full manual, but a multi-lingual one. Check this out, bottom of the list:

Need help with correction inscript for duplication on regular basis
Hi,
I am using Oracle 10.2.0.4 on Win 2008 R2. We have Archive mode enabled and no rman catalog is used. I have a requirement where i have to duplicate prod sevrer on regular basis to development server.
I have created few batch files so that the entire process in automated. Stored all the scripts in c:\script\clone\ directory.+
I have taken the backup copy of password and spfile from prod server and copied to the development server in same location.
These are the scripts i run in order:
*1_clone.bat*
set ORACLE_SID=orcl
sqlplus / as sysdba @c:\script\clone\2_test.bat
*2_test.bat*
shutdown immediate
startup nomount
host rman target sys/oracle@live nocatalog auxiliary / @c:\script\clone\3_rman.rcv
*3_rman.rcv*
run {
allocate auxiliary channel d1 type disk;
duplicate target database to ORCL NOFILENAMECHECK;
exit
When the duplication process in about to finish, i get below error:
contents of memory script:
shutdown clone;
startup clone nomount;
executing Memory Script
RMAN-03002: failure of duplicate DB command at 07/31/2012 08:02:21
RMAN-03015: error occured in stored script memory script
RMAN-06136: Oracle error from auxiliary database: ORA-01013: user requested cancel of current operation
Recovery Manager complete
SQL>
When i press exit, this window closes and i can run the alter database open resetlogs;+ command from a new sql prompt. I check online and some suggest there might be a window open with system user connected. Please suggest any changes in the script.
Best Regards,Hello;
Having another session with system user will cause rman to throw this error. For example another session used to start up database in nomount mode still being active.
Duriing the cloning process the rman session needs to be exclusively connected to the auxiliary instance (no other session are allowed).

Need help with user defined function
Hello SDN,
I need some help with a user-defined function. My source message contains multiple
generic records (1000 char string), and my target message is 1 header record,
then multiple generic records. See description of source and target messages below:
Source:
GenericRecordTable 1..unbounded
Row (1000 char string)
Target:
Field1 (char5)
Field2 (char5)
Field3 (char5)
IT_Data
GenericRecordTable 1..unbounded
Row (1000 char string)
Basically, what I need to do in my user defined funtion is to map the first record
in my source record to the 3 header fields, then map all of the rest of the records
(starting from line 2) into the GenericRecordTable.
Can someone please help me with the code for the user defined function(s) for this
mapping?
Thank you.hi,
Activities
1. To create a new user-defined function, in the data-flow editor, choose Create New Function (This
graphic is explained in the accompanying text), which is located on the lower left-hand side of the
screen. In the menu, choose Simple Function or Advanced Function.
2. In the window that appears, specify the attributes of the new function:
Name
Technical name of the function. The name is displayed in the function chooser and on the data-flow
object.
Description
Description of how the function is used.
Cache
Function type (see above)
Argument Count
In this table, you specify the number of input values the function can process, and name them. All
functions are of type String.
3. In the window that appears, you can create Java source code:
a. You can import Java packages to your methods from the Imports input field, by specifying them
separated by a comma or semi-colon:
You do not need to import the packages java.lang., java.util., java.io., and java.lang.reflect. since
all message mappings require these packages and therefore import them. You should be able to
access standard JDK and J2EE packages of the SAP Web Application Server by simply specifying the
package under Import. In other words, you do not have to import it as an archive into the Integration
Repository. You can also access classes of the SAP XML Toolkit, the SAP Java Connector, and the
SAP Logging Service (see also: Runtime Environment (Java-Mappings)).
In addition to the standard packages, you can also specify Java packages that you have imported as
archives and that are located in the same, or in an underlying software component version as the
message mapping.
b. Create your Java source text in the editor window or copy source text from another editor.
4. Confirm with Save and Close.
5. User-defined functions are limited to the message mapping in which you created the function. To
save the new function, save the message mapping.
6. To test the function, use the test environment.
The new function is now visible in the User-Defined function category. When you select this category,
a corresponding button is displayed in the function chooser pushbutton bar. To edit, delete, or add the
function to the data-flow editor, choose the arrow next to the button and select from the list box
displayed.

Need help with User Defined Aggregates - Statistical Mode
I would like to use User Defined Aggregates (UDAG) to calculate the Statistical Mode. The mode is the most frequent value among a set of observations.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_(statistics)
In my application I aggregate an address level table of 130 million records to a ZIP4 level table of roughly 36 million records. Some ZIP4s will have 1 record, some may have 1000+ records. I need to use statistical modes to pick the most frequent values for some of the attribute fields.
Presently I am using an approach from AskTom using the Analytic functions combined with nesting subqueries. The code works but it's cumbersome. I feel user defined aggregates should be able to perform a simpler more straightforward integration into SQL queries.
I've reviewed several of the other posts in this forum on User Defined Aggregates. I feel I could write a procedure that calculates and average or merely concatenates strings. But this particular application of the UDAGs is stumping me. Rather than just increased a running total or count or concatenating a master string, you'd have to keep every distinct values and a count for how many times that value occured. Then evaluate those items to pick the most frequent to pass to output. I'm finding it difficult as a novice.
Any, I'll post a quick example using the present approach that I want to replace with a UDAG:
Here's a small table:
DRD> desc statmodetest
Name Null? Type
ID NUMBER
STATE VARCHAR2(2)
REGION VARCHAR2(1)
1* select * from statmodetest
DRD> /
ID ST REG
1 TX W
2 MN W
3 CA W
4 VA E
5 VA E
6 KY E
7 MN W
8 FL E
9 OK W
10 NC E
11 TX W
12 WI E
13 CA W
14 MI E
15 FL E
16 FL E
17 TN E
18 FL E
19 WI E
20 MA E
Now here's a query approach that gets the MODE State value for each Region.
1 SELECT DISTINCT region, mode_state, mode_state_cnt FROM (
2 SELECT region,
3 FIRST_VALUE(state) OVER (PARTITION BY region ORDER BY stcnt DESC) AS mode_state,
4 FIRST_VALUE(stcnt) OVER (PARTITION BY region ORDER BY stcnt DESC) AS mode_state_cnt
5 FROM (
6 select id, state, region, COUNT(state) OVER (PARTITION BY region, state) AS stcnt
7* from statmodetest t ) )
DRD> /
R MO MODE_STATE_CNT
W CA 2
E FL 4
What I'd like to be able to do is have a UDAG that supports this style query:
SELECT region, UDAGMODE(state)
FROM statmodetest
GROUP BY region ;
Thanks,
PaulThis is not what you want..?
