Accessing IBOutlets across files

Hello,
I am having two windows in my program. I have made a single controller file which contains the references for the outlets and actions for controls on both the windows. This has made my controller class very big.. around 1000 lines of code.
Can I organise the declaration of controls in two separate files, one for each window. Doing this is easy if the controls do not interact with each other, but in my case I want to use controls declared in one file, in another file. I have no clue how to do this.
suppose my first file Window1Delegate has following outlets:
IBOutlet NSButton *Button1;
IBOutlet NSButton *Button2;
and correspoinding actions.
And the 2nd file has a few labels.
Now from the actions in the first file I want to modify the label attributes. Is this possible?

No, it's not good practice to duplicate pointers to UI objects. The instance var which saves the address of a UI object should be declared in the @interface for the controller of the window which contains that object. When that address is needed by a second controller, you should follow Eric's advice and provide a way for the second controller to obtain the address of the first.
In Eric's example, when two view controllers are defined in the same nib, you can store the address of one in the other by simply dragging to an IBOutlet. If two or more controllers were defined in separate nibs, you might store the address of each in instance vars of a root controller or app delegate. Then the controllers can access each other's properties so long as they have the address of the higher level object (and if nothing else, it's always easy to obtain the app delegate's address).
Consider the case where wc2 requires the state of 6 controls which are hooked up to IBOutlets in wc1. Why would you want to make 6 additional instance vars in wc2 (and just how do you expect to initialize them, btw?) when wc2 only needs the address of wc1? Knowing the address of wc1, you just code something in wc2 like \[wc1.control6 intValue\].
Hope that helps!

Just to bring this into context, it helps to keep in mind Adobe's reluctance add any functionality to its software that would encourage working over a network. The following can be read in many archived messages at the Photoshop forum:
This is the boilerplate text often used in connection to saving to a network in the Photoshop forums. Please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe:
If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
See:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406793.html
Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work. It should.
Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

How to access the *.java file corresponding to a TypeElement T?

Here is a problem:
How to access the *.java file corresponding to a TypeElement T from a AnnotationProcessor environment?
Let us say the hook method
public boolean process(Set<? extends TypeElement> annos, RoundEnvironment roundEnv)
is invoked with a TypeElement T such that T.getQualifiedname() = "a.b.c.X"
And the problem is how to locate the file that has the *.java source code for a.b.c.X?
That is the file that has the source code for a.b.c.X say "some/path/a/b/c/X.java"?
For simplicity, let us assume that TypeElement T corresponds to a top-level Java class.

That is not something you as the annotation processor author should be asking about. That is something you the person configuring the javac environment should set up via the -d option or its equivalent.
I strongly recommend using a separate output directory hierarchy.That is the way the current implementation is. The annotation processor takes a -Aout= <some directory path> to write generated output relative to a user-specified location (which defaults to the class output location).That is contrary to the design of the annotation processing facility. The intended use is for that information to be configured via options like "javac -d".
Additionally, IMO it is a serious configuration error to put generated files and input files, presumably tracked under version control, in the same directory. Interesting you said that. We are just running some "field trial" with these things and some users want them to be in the same directory of the original *.java files (especially when their source files are spread across many roots) .
Who knows what the user wants?The user does and the user is free to (mis)configure their environment however they like ;-) However, that is the user's option and the user has control of this via the javac command line. The annotation processor is not the proper place to configure this setting; see slide 7 of http://blogs.sun.com/darcy/resource/J1_2006-BOF-0606.pdf for some thoughts on different roles in annotation processing.
presumably tracked under version control, in the same directory.version control is another 'usability issues' that we are trying to get our heads around with this stuff. "To check-in or not?" - that seems to be the question. When presented these facilities without any cue, "the users" were divided -- some wanted them to be checked-in, some did not. The context where these generated files being used -- there exists some rationale to check them in a version control system.The right answer depends on the circumstances, but IMO generally generated files should not be checked in under version control, especially if they are derived from other source files. Checking in generated files of this nature just creates the opportunity for them to get out of date with the originating files.

Need help.

Brad,
I've seen that a number of times with 7x upgrade files. I would like to say it's consistent but it hasn't always been. I've done a number of upgrades and sometimes I would run across that issue and other times, I would not (there would be multiple files in the SFTP path). After a few times, I just started always putting my upgrade file in a dedicated folder.
Good catch...and you're not alone in experiencing it.

Write Access to a file in Tomcat server via J2me Midlet

How to make write access to a file using midlet and HTTP connection?
I have text file in the Tomcat server and I am able to read it with HTTP connection using emulator, but don't have idea how to make write access to the file. I'd like to write some text to the file.

Thanks, but could you be more accurate. What methods should I use in the servlet and what methods in the midlet?
Some links which concern this subject, would be nice too. I have tried with google, no success.

Question re Accessing catalogues and files from an external hard drive in Elements 6.

Having just acquired an ehd, I have successfully carried out a trial back up of an Elements 6 2000 picture catalogue from an XP based PC, using the Elements 6 full back-up process. This process is intended to be used eventually to transfer this and other catalogues onto a new Windows 8 PC installed with Elements 11.
However, in the interim I would also like to be able to access the picture files and the catalogue data on the ehd from a Vista based laptop which also has Elements 6 installed. Can you please advise how to do this without carrying out a full restore process that would load all of the files onto my laptop's hard drive.
In transferring the picture files to the ehd I also seem to have lost the original file structure that was on my PC, as folders have been renamed numerically and are all held individually in the main folder of the ehd. Whilst this doesn't matter too much whilst the files remain on the ehd, provided the catalogue still knows where to find them, has the original file structure been permanently lost, or can I recreate it when I eventually restore the files and catalogue on the new Windows 8 PC?
I'm anxious to get this process right as I have a much larger catalogue to similarly back-up and transfer, once I have acquired the new PC, and was hoping to be able to similarly access this catalogue by my laptop from the ehd as there is insufficent hard disk space on my laptop to hold all the 20,000 files involved.
Please help
Gardener 179

Thanks for your help re my original questions.
Reassured regarding not having lost the file structure of my pictures, and bearing in mind the relatively small catalogue I had backed up, I thought that rather than restoring by leaving the picture files on the EHD, I would after all restore to the laptop hard drive, as a trial run before dealing with my main catalogue.
The restore was successful but raised a number of further issues that I would appreciate your advice on:-
1) The original catalogue name was not used in the restoration process. The restored catalogue on the laptop has simply been named "Pictures". Is this normal and if I now rename the restored catalogue will this create problems with any subsequent supplementary backups of the catalogue?
2) In restoring the catalogue I heeded the Adobe Help and specified the Vista folder C:\Users\Maurice\Pictures as the location for the picture files rather than simply restoring the original XP folder structure. However, since I also wanted to retain the lower level folder structure of my XP files (which are basically date files) I then specified to "Retain the Original Folder Structure". This has resulted in the full XP folder structure being created within \Pictures on the laptop.
Is it possible to avoid this situation occurring, or will I have to remove the unwanted XP sub-folder structure from the laptop and reconnect the thumbnails in the Photoshop catalogue to the new file locations? Also if I have to move files in this way will I once again have problems with any subsequent restorations of the same catalogue?
I have also a couple of supplementary questions re the initial backup to the EHD which I have now looked at more closely:-
1) The original XP catalogue has 1853 picture files, (and this is identical to that subsequently restored on the laptop), yet in backing up the catalogue to the EHD it seems that in excess of 2200 picture files have been created. Why is this?
2) As previously advised the pictures are held on the EHD numbered sequentially as "b000001" etc, and due to my selecting the EHD top level root folder as the destination for the back up are held in F:\. Should I have created a new folder, say "Backup 1" on the EHD, and then specified this as the destination folder, as I am concerned that on backing up further catalogues the existing picture files will get overwritten and the Photoshop Backup and Catalogue files confused with previous backups? If so can I move the existing back up files to a new folder now without causing any problems?
Finally could you confirm what would have happened to the folder structure on the EHD had I carried out the Restore process by locating the picture files on the EHD but retaining their original file structure. Would the picture files have been copied into their original file structure for use by the restored catalogue and the duplicate backup files left unaltered, or would the backup picture files have been replaced by the restored file structure? Also would the "catalogue file" be transferred to the Laptop C:\ drive in this process or would this also stay on the EHD and be accessed from there by Photoshop?
Sorry for all the questions but I really want to fully understand what is going on before risking doing anything to move my main catalogue.
Regards

How can I get permission to access my own files?

I recently got a new Mac Pro, and I used a Time Machine backup to migrate my data. Then I discovered that Time Machine doesn't actually back up everything; it leaves out all the "Build" folders in all of my Xcode projects for some reason. I transferred all those folders manually, but I couldn't help but wonder what else Time Machine was omitting. So I decided that before I permanently retire my old computer (a seven year old iMac), I'd make a full backup of all its data onto BD-Roms. This it turning out to be quite difficult.
First I tried using Target Disk Mode and running Disk Utility on a second computer to create a disk image. But after about 15 hours, it wasn't even a third of the way done, so I cancelled that. Then I tried connecting an external drive to my old computer and just dragging all the files onto it, which seemed to be working at first, but then after a couple hours, it said something like, "You don't have permission to access the Keychain App," and it stopped transferring. So I tried again, but I omitted the Applications folder, since that's where the Keychain app is. Then, after a couple more hours, it said something like, "You don't have permission to access some other file."
Is there any way I can disable this permissions business? I tried going to "get info" and giving everyone read and write privileges, but it didn't make any difference. I wouldn't even mind just skipping the files with permission issues, but the problem is that whenever it gets to an "unpermitted" file, it just completely bails out of the whole transfer and then I have to start all over again. Is there at least a way to make it just skip those files and go on with the transfer?

Not in your case. System-level folders cannot be backed up by drag-copying; just drag your home folder to the external drive.

Can't access Time Machine files since upgrading to Mavericks

I have searched the community and found that people have experienced issues backing up to Time Machine since upgrading to Mavericks, but my problem appears slightly different from the ones I've found. I can see that my Time Machine is actually backing up since the upgrade as it was before the upgrade. The issue I'm having is that I can't access the backed-up files in any way.
When I try to open time machine it launches the "space view" with all of the historical tabs lined up for me to scroll through, but imediately closes that window and gives the error message: "Can't connect to a current Time Machine backup disc". It's so weird, because it says that there have been backups completed since the upgrade (most recently this morning). If it wasn't writing to the disc, it would have showed me an error of some sort.
What I am, specifically, trying to accomplish is that I need to restore some iTunes playlists that I somehow managed to delete this past weekend. I figured that I would easily be able to access the library file that contains the playlists from Saturday morning, when I KNOW that playlist was still there, and just restore it. Now that I am seeing that I can't access any of my time machine files, I'm realizing that I have an even bigger problem, and that all of my files are, essentially, going without backup at this time (assuming I can't access the files that have already been backing up).
If anyone has some insight as to how I can fix this problem, I would greatly appreciate it.

Hi John, (The above was for your attention) I'm 72 and must've hit the wrong button!!!
I followed your instructions to the letter, but sadly, no success...all my backups are showing on the TM external HD, but I cannot access them after instsalling 'Mavericks'
I spent the entire day on and off the phone with Applecare (they are very nice, and I'm sure they know most of the stuff needed; but not this problem. They are phoning back tomorrow as the senior chap was not available.
I love my apple products, and like you, have been using their gear for well over 25 years...not studying the things, but using them all the way through.
My present Mac, a 24" iMac is nearly 7 years old, bought on December 11th 2007, and this is the first time I have had a significant problem, and never a virus..got bless em!. I bet there are not many Windows users around who can say the same!
However, if I cannot access my backups, I'm a bit lost, as all my accumulated stuff is there!
I guess the worst case scenario is that I revert to OS X 10.7.5, and wait 'til the bugs are ironed out in Mavericks....Ho Hum

Access DB (& .ldb file) does not close after crystal reports

Access DB (& .ldb file) does not close after crystal reports
Hi! We have a VB application using Crystal Reports 6 that has worked successfully on hundreds of systems for over 10 years. Now, on one network, the application and access database does not close. It seems to hang on the [.Close] command.
When we open the application an peruse the screens without opening up a report (using crystal reports), the application and access db closes fine. But as soon as we run a report and then close the report and try to close the application, the access db does not close. Many of the screens open the db and grab data from the access db, but it's only after running crystal reports that we have this problem. (Please see more information below.)
Setup: Application and data (access 97 db) reside on a server in the same folder, but application shortcut is kicked off on client PC. Kicking off the shortcut on the client PC means that the image/process runs on the client PC (not on the server). In this problem case, the application shortcut is on a Windows XP Pro Version 2002 SP2 PC with the app & data on a Windows 2003 server. Users are local Admins on their PCs with "Full Control"over the directory and files on the server where the data (access 97 db) resides. This type of setup is typical and has worked without any problems for clients.
The application is written in Visual Basic, using Crystal Reports 6 (using DAO). We close the recordset, set it to zero and then it hangs on closing the db (.Close command).
A few key pieces of information:
- The application closes fine if the app & data (access 97 db) are on a local PC. This includes closing fine if the application is run directly on the Windows 2003 server where the data is stored.
- It worked on this client's network until sometime in the last few weeks.
- One thing that changed is that the company is using VMWare on its servers. Not sure if they started using VMWare at the same time as it started failing. This may be unrelated. Possibly other things changed, but can't get any more information ... yet.
- It works fine running the application from a Windows Vista PC with a user who is a domain admin.
- The access db and application hang for about 10-20 minutes and then eventually closes. It appears that somehow
Crystal Reports is keeping the db open, but I'm not sure why.The application doesn't quit and the database doesn't close even if I try to end the task with the Task Manager.
- The Crystl32.ocx version being used is 8.0.0.4 (if that matters).
- I copied 6 month old program files and database files to a test folder on the Windows 2003 server. It fails using these files that worked fine 6 months ago.
Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated! If you know of another good place to post this, please let me know.
Thanks!
- Mark

Lost access to my files on my iMac even though - Apple TV seems to recognise that sharing is on.:

OK I bought an Apple TV when the new version came out recently. I've had no real issues connecting or sharing except from the annoying odd time when sharing dropped and I had to restart iTunes or occasionally - reboot my iMac.
However in the last 7 days I seem to have lost all contact with my iTunes library. When I turn on Apple TV/Computers I get the message - make sure Sharing is turned on for ....... I turn on iTunes and this message disappears but there's no access to the files. - Nada! My Logitech box has also been unable to access files.
My iMac seems to be fine but clearly there's something else wrong. I've tried:
Turning Airport WiFi - off and on.
Checked my firewall settings
Verfied and repaired permissions.
When I first got my iMac aabout a year ago (transferred everything from my old powermac), I kept getting the annoying little message in the middle of my screen saying I needed to turn off my computer. I got in touch with Apple and I was told that the Netbarrier software I had for my old mac was not compatible and to remove it. I did and things have been rosier since
But while trying to sort this problem out I came accross this little Castle symbol in the top right hand corner of the bar. It relates to the Netbarrier software I thought I'd got rid of. It also seems to be dead. I used cleaner to search for rogue Netbarrier apps or prefs and it didn't find any. And then a day or so after I got a Netbarrier warning flash up.
I suspect something has happened with security settings somewhere but I can't find anything.
Hope someone who was good enough to read this novel will be able to help me.
Cheers
Jonna

How can I access a response file on the same computer but with different login?

When trying to access a response file on the same computer that was used to set it up, but with a different login, I get an error message that the network resource was not found. How can I retrieve the responses on the same computer but under a different login/username?

The response file is associated with a specific login (as determined under Edit > Preferences > Identity) so you cannot retrieve it if you're using a different login.
