About global hotkey for a backgroud application

is there anyway to do so?
for example, I want to pause the playback radio (not the original iTunes) when the front windows is something else such as Safari.

Hi,
As of my knowledge Initerface builder does all the job which by default gives you the Mac standard applications look and feel so no need look at any other design software!
you can go through this :

Global HotKey for Pause/Play,Next Song, etc.

It would be nice to have an Global Hotkey so you can pause/play your music while browsing and not switching between screens. Or when you are gaming and you want another song but you don't want to alt tab and stay idle, a (customizable?) Global Hotkey(i.g. ctrl+shift+right) would be such an great improvement in the usefulness of Spotify.

Well, there is a simple solution to your inquiry if you use Mac OSX Lion. I suppose that you, just like me, don't want to cram your toolbar with extra icons and I also suppose that you use an external keyboard that lacks the playpause/next/previous buttons.
Here's your 5-min solution :)
Open up the Automator Application (Applications/Automator.app)
Create a new document (⌘N) and choose the "Service" type for your document.
On the "Service receives selected" item in the top side of the window select "no input" from the dropdown.
Search for "Run Applescript" from the searchbar on the left side of the window.
Drag the "Run Applescript" item in the main window area.
Delete the (* Your script goes here *) line and paste this instead:
tell application "Spotify" to playpause
Save your script (File > Save or ⌘S) and give it a meaningful name like Spotify PlayPause :D
Go to System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts and select Services from the left column.
Scroll down to the General Section and find your Spotify PlayPause item.
Click the add shortcut button and press the combination of keys that will be your shortcut. (eg. I gave it the ⌃⌘P shortcut).
Test that it's working by clicking on System Preferences (next to the Apple Logo on top of your screen) > Services > Spotify Play Pause. (Actually this step is necessary for the shortcut to be registered to your system).
You're done! Your shortcut is now available to you, in whichever program you have open.
PS. In order to create a next or previous track shortcut, you should follow the above procedure, but on step 6 you input
tell application "Spotify" to next track
tell application "Spotify" to previous track
respectively.
If you have any questions feel free to ask :)

Where to store "global variable" for a web application

There are some "global" variables in my portal web application. e.g. email server
name, admin email address etc. Will web.xml context-param a good place to store these
kind of information?
If so, how do I retrieve it back from a java class? It is easy in a jsp file: appalication.getAttribute(),
but how about a pipeline component or input processor which are all java file.
Please help!
Thank you very much

I still believe that the information like connectivity parameters to remote
servers in the distributed environments would be best stored in the JNDI
tree. I agree, that it is not a "general storage area", but I am not talking
about storing application run-time data either.
In the clustered environments it would provide additional benefits of
centralizing this kind information across the cluster.

Mike

JNDI is not a general-purpose storage area, although you could bind data
in a JNDI tree. A better (and simpler) way is to store them as context
parameters. You could read the initial values for these variables from a
servlet init parameters.

You can use jndi.properties file to store name-value pairs, which will
get
loaded into jndi tree at the server startup. Just put this file in your
application class path.
The other method would be to code a startup class to store the global
variable in the jndi tree.

How to store global values for the whole application to use ?

Hi,
In our application, we have global values that is store in a parameter table, I want only to query it once, and it will be used every where from the whole application.
e.g :
I have general parameter tables that store :
% Tax
Current Period
etc..
Then these values will be used in our business rules in the whole application.
How can I do that in ADF BC ?
Thank you,

I would go ahead and create a transient VO with an attribute called "userLanguage" and store the value at the initialization step.
We generally call this type of VO as PVO which is a transient VO and contains only 1 record at any point of time. Keep this VO inside the RootAM and you can write a static util method as below..
public static String getUserLanguageFromPVO()
PVOImpl pvo = (PVOImpl)am.findViewObject("MyPVO");
if(pvo != null)
Row row = pvo.first(); //Always returns the one record
return (row == null ? null :
(String)row.getAttribute("UserLanguage"));
return null;
}

A question about Using RSL for our Intranet Application

Hi ,
I am doing an Intranet Application (Which will be used only with in the Employees of the Organization)
We want to RSL as read that it will improve the performance of the swf files .
Please let us know what type of RSL (like Standard RSLs , Cross-domain RSLs or Framework RSL)
Suppourt us ??
Can anybody let me know how can i provide RSL facility for my Application .
Thanks in advnace .

Thanks for the information .
As you mentioned:
RSLs are only useful if more than one SWF is going to share it.
Our Intranet Application is divided into several Modules , but under only one APPlication MMXL file . So will this be useful for us in any way ??
Thanks .
Waiitng for your resposne .

HotKey for AIR App

Is it possible to create a HotKey for an AIR application?
What I would like to do is to enable the user to bring my running
(but hidden) AIR application to the "top" (and give it the focus)
simply by pressing, say, SHIFT-F12 (or some other plausible key
combination). I have read what I could find and searched the
knowledge base, but I have come across nothing on this question.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

After posting over 300 questions I would think you would be passed the "New to Java TechnologY" stage.
The answer for Swing applications is yes this can be done.
I don't know how to do it for AWT components.
Since you posted the question in this forum (as oppose to the Swing forum for Swing related problems), I'm assuming this is an AWT related question and therefore I can't help you.

Did you add or change your card details on your iTunes account when downloading the app ? If you did then each time that you did so a small temporary store holding charge may be applied to check that the card details are correct and valid and that it's registered to exactly the same name and address as on your iTunes account - it should disappear off your account within a few days or so.

Best practice for mouseless ADF applications

I am developing an ADF application where the users do not want to use the mouse.
So I would like to know if there are a best practice for this?
I am already using the accessKey functionality and subforms defaultCommand
But I have had problems setting focus to objects on a page like tables. I would like a button to return the focus to the table after it has made the command like delete.
I have implemented a solution where I have found inspiration several threads and other webpages (see below).
Is this solution okay?
Are there any problems with it?
I would also like to know if there are better pathways to go like
out of the box solutions,

Hi,
I am developing an ADF application where the users do not want to use the mouse. So I would like to know if there are a best practice for this?
Well HTML (and this is the user interface you see) follows a tab index navigation that you follow with "tab" and "shift+tab". Anything else is a short cut for which you use mnemonics (as you already do) or shortcuts (explained in http://one-size-doesnt-fit-all.blogspot.dk/2010/11/adf-ui-shell-supporting-global-hotkeys.html). There is a distinction to make between non-web environments (which I think you and your users have abackground in) and client desktop environments. Browsers block some keyboard functionality for their own purpose. So you may have to find a list of keys first that work across browsers. Unlike desktop clients, which allow you to "press a button" without the button to take focus, this cannot be done on the web. So you need to be clever here, avoiding buttons at all.
The following paper is about JavaScript in ADF and explains the basics for what Chris Muir explains in : http://one-size-doesnt-fit-all.blogspot.dk/2010/11/adf-ui-shell-supporting-global-hotkeys.html
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/jdev/1-2011-javascript-302460.pdf
It has the outline for how to register short cut keys that perform a specific action (e.g. register ctrl+d to delete the current row you are on, or press F11 to execute a query (similar to Oracle Forms frmres files)). However, be aware that this includes some code you have to write (actually quite some code to be honest).
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/79-global-template-button-strategy-360139.pdf (are there an example implementation?), or
http://one-size-doesnt-fit-all.blogspot.dk/2010/11/adf-ui-shell-supporting-global-hotkeys.html
Actually these are implementations as they come with example code for you to use and customize, do they? So what is this question asking for more ? Also note that global buttons don't quite have anything in common with the question you asked. I assume you want to see it as an implementation of the Forms toolbar that operates on the form or table the focus is in. This however does not work for the web as there is nothing that keeps track of which component has a focus and to what iterator (data block) it belongs. This would involve even more coding (though possibly doable)

Use Global Conditions when Deploying an Application to a User

Hi,
Use Global Conditions when Deploying an Application to a User:
I would like to deploy App-V Application with User centic in mind. The problem is that when the user login to a specefic typ of desktop the application shall be deployed. But if the use login on there primary device or some other
device with same SLA the Application shall not be deployed.
I think I can use Global Conditions to solve this. I have read about GC and it looks like I could greate a GC rule that deploy the software if the computer is in an AD-group or maybe becas all this computer starts with same prefix, sp maybe
if the computernamn starts with PC the application will get deployed.
The issue is that there is differant SLA on the computers that the User login to.
Or what mor can I do?
/SaiTech

Just keep in mind this puts a load on AD, a Domain Controller can get tickled silly by these Global Conditions running from each of your Clients, depending on the scale of your environment it can have an impact. It's a great idea GC's, just need to consider
what load you are putting on the infra when they run.
Might not be an issue for\to you, worth nothing all the same.

Register a global hotkey with Labview

I need to register a global hotkey, in Windows, in order to fire an
event in a top-level VI application.
I suspect it could be possible by accessing the Windows API but I
don't know how to link a global keystroke event with a labview event.
I use LV 8.2 and Windows XP.
Thanks in advance.

Monitoring keystrokes within a LabVIEW application can be done with the input VIs. There's an example called "Basic Input Demo" that ships with LabVIEW that shows you how to do this. Open the Example Finder and search for "keyboard".
However, it sounds like you want the LabVIEW application to receive the keystroke if you're in another Windows application, or diddling around in Explorer. Is this the case? If so, you can still use those VIs to monitor the keys. You just need to make sure you're not stealing some keystroke that another process is expecting.

Solaris Cluster and Global Devices for sapmnt

Hi,
IHAC that is considering using Global Devices for /usr/sapmnt in a SAP environment, since they need all SAP nodes looking for the same sapmnt area. Is this a recommended approach?
Generally, we are working with S11.1/Solaris Cluster 4.1 to implement Netweaver 7.2 and ERP 6.0.
I appreciate your comments.
Regards, Rafael.

Hi Rafael,
/usr/sapmnt is a file system, as such I assume when you ask about usage of global devices you really mean to ask about using a global file system (ie. an UFS file system with mount option global)?
If that is true, then the answer is yes.
The data service guide for SAP NetWeaver (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E29086_01/html/E29440/installconfig-10.html#installconfig-34) does mention in the section "configuration considerations":
"The SAP enqueue server and SAP replica server run on different cluster nodes. Therefore, the SAP application files (binary files, configuration files, and parameter files) can be installed either on the global file system or on the local file system. However, the application files for each of these applications must be accessible at all times from the nodes on which these applications are running."
And the deployment example in the appendix (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E29086_01/html/E29440/gmlbt.html#scrolltoc) makes use of a global mounted /sapstore file system.

Lost global inbox for Mail (inbox tray icons?)

i have had to add five accounts to my mail (i did this in Settings Mail Contacts and Calendars) and they came up with little "inbox trays" as icons instead of the icons that i think i am used to which are shown in the screenshot below the new accounts.
this has also had the effect of my not seeing a "Global Inbox" for my Mac Mail which is the primary way i access my mail. since i have about fifteen accounts it is going to be almost impossible for me to click on each account and then go to the inbox of each account to check for mail.
i went ahead and DELETED the new accounts and this did not fix it. i also went ahead and re-added the accounts and they came up again as you see below.
i saw one post on this which was not exactly the same and the user was on POP whereas all my accounts are on IMAP.
i do obviously still get the global inbox in mac mail on my computers but this issue makes it almost impossible for me to check mail when away from the computer.
any advice or ideas that will help me avoid making an appointment at the genius bar?
THANK YOU

Hello hotwheels 22,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with Mail on your iPhone.
I recommend following these steps and checking for the Global Inbox after each step (you can skip 4 because it does not relate to the issue you are experiencing and any other steps you may have taken):
If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on),reset your device.
If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
You can find the full article here:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281
If you get to step 5, I recommend backing up your iPhone before performing the restore:

I am using the Order Analysis Toolkit and want to get more information about the compensation for "Reference Signal Processing", which is scarce in the manuals, the website and the examples installed with the toolkit.

I am using the Order Analysis Toolkit and want to get more information about the compensation for "Reference Signal Processing", which is scarce in the manuals, the website and the examples installed with the toolkit.
In particular, I am analyzing the example "Even Angle Reference Signal Processing (Digital Tacho, DAQmx).vi", whose documentation I am reproducing in the following:
DESCRIPTIONS:
This VI demonstrates how to extract even angle reference signals and remove the slow-roll errors. It uses DAQmx VIs to acquire sound or vibration signals and a digital tachometer signal. This VI includes a two-step process: acquire data at low rotational speed to extract even angle reference; use the even angle reference to remove the errors in the vibration signal acquired at normal operation.
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Run the VI.
2. On the DAQ Configurations tab, specify the sample rate, samples per channel, device and channel configurations, and tachometer channel information.
NOTE: You need to use DSA PXI-447x/PXI-446x and PXI TIO device in a PXI chassis to run this example. The DSA device must be in slot 2 of the PXI chassis.
3. Switch to Extract Even Angle Reference tab. Specify the number of samples to acquire and the # of revs in reference which determines the number of samples in even angle reference. Click Start to take a one-shot data acquisition of the vibration and tachometer signals. After the acquisition, you can see the extracted even angle references in Even Angle Reference.
4. Switch to the Remove Slow-roll Errors tab. Click Start to acquire data continuously and view the compensate results. Click Stop in this tab to stop the acquisition.
ORDER ANALYSIS VIs USED IN THIS EXAMPLE:
1. SVL Scale Voltage to EU.vi
2. OAT Digital Tacho Process.vi
3. OAT Get Even Angle Reference.vi
4. OAT Convert to Even Angle Signal.vi
5. OAT Compensate Even Angle Signal.vi
My question is: How is the synchronization produced at the time of the compensation ? How is it possible to eliminate the errors in a synchronized fashion with respect to the surface of the shaft bearing in mind that I am acquired data at a low rotation speed in order to get the "even angle reference" and then I use it to remove the errors in the vibration signal acquired at normal operation. In this application both operations are made in different acquisitions, therefore the reference of the correction signal is lost. Is it simply compensated without synchronizing ?
Our application is based on FPGA and we need to clarity those aspects before implementing the procedure.
Solved!

Hi,
if you have access to service.sap.com via S-User, you can download "SAP Enterprise Portal Security Guide" in the portal section. It has dedicated descriptions about SSO-Settings, also about netegrity.
You can also search help.sap.com about "SSO" which gives you overview descriptions.
On SAP Service Net, there is also an pdf "Integrating Security functions" in the Netweaver 2004s Portal section, where the description of the Java API for the PDK is included. This is very helpfull for coding.
