Alsett clearing method in dreamweaver

Hi everyone, has anyone used this in DW? My page looks wrong
in Dreamweaver design view, but displays fine in the
browser.

Yep. Like much of the stuff I find on ALA, it's academically
interesting,
but practically useless.

Clear method and Garbage Collector

Hi Gurus,
Does the Clear method (hashtable, vector etc..) is a good option for garbage collection ?
In other words, if I have a vector V with 100 elements and I perform a V.clear(), am I sure that the 100 elements are now candidates for the Garbage Collection ?
Or is it better to write a loop performing a NULL assignment for each element of the vector ?

Hi schapel,
I know it's not a good idea to force the garbage collector, but let me explain what I am confronted with.
(FYI, I didn't write the source code. Comes from a 3rd party)
The aim is to build a jsp page which is the list of the files contained in a web server directory.
I have a "Directory" class, and a "File" class. To build the jsp, each directory of the webserver is represented by a directory class, and each file, ...by a file class.
To simplify, when the tree structure of the web server is build in memory, I create a jsp page to list the files, and then, I do not need the vector anymore. But the vector can be quite huge and each client will build his own vector at the begening of his session (and will never use it again during the session).
Don't you think it's usefull in that situation to free some memory ?

Reference.clear method

I think that I do not understand the Reference.clear method. I am trying to use SoftReferences to store objects (actually Sets) that can be retrieved from filesystem files. And I am trying to use (override) the Reference.clear method to handle writing said file when one of them is about to go "byebye"...
But what is happening is that my clear method never gets called AND the SoftReference.get method returns null. (Which means that the referent is gone without clear having been called...which means I don't understand the clear method!)
SOOOOOO, can someone please either explain how I can be alerted to handle something just before something gets gc-ed, or else enlighten me to a better way to implement this?
Here's the longer story:
I have many "records", far too many to even consider keeping them all in memory at once. So I started storing them in "minisets" which I can serialize to files and retrieve as needed. The "minisets" are values in a HashMap with string keys.
When one of these Sets gets "big enough", I start storing a SoftReference to it instead of "it". Then when I need a particular set, I do a hashmap.get(key), then either (a) I get the Set, or (b) I get the the softref from which I can get the Set, or (c) I get the softref from which I cannot get the Set, in which case I go reconstruct the Set by reading a file.
The problem is writing the file... if I write a file every time I edit a (potentially large) Set then this program will take 5 days to run. So I think I want to write the file only when absolutely necessary....right before the gc eats it.
Thank you for help,
/Mel

Okay, here it is.
MyRef: My extension of PhRef. Also holds referent data that we need for cleanup, since we can't get to referent once Ref is enQ'ed.
Dummy: thie is the class that you're storing in the Sets or whatever, and that gets put in a reference.
Dummy's id_ member: This holds the place of whatever data you need for pre-bye-bye cleanup, e.g. a filename and the internal data of Dummy. MyRef grabs this when it's created.
(Note: what you may want to create a new class, say DummyWrapper that holds a Dummy and provides the only strongly reachable path to it, pass DummyWrapper to the Ref's constructor, and then have the Ref store the wrapped Dummy (e.g. wrapper.getDummy()) as its member var in place of the id_ that I'm storing--that is, in place of storing a bunch of internal data individually. Like I said, this approach seems overly complex, but I've not found a simpler way that works. I originally tried having the Ref store the Dummy directly as a member var, but then the Dummy was always strongly reachable.)
Poller: Thread that removes Refs from queue. You can probably just do this at the point in your code where you decide the set is "big enough", rather than in a separate thread.
dummies_: List that holds Dummies and keeps them strongly reachable until cleanup time. I think you said your stuff was in a Set or Sets. This is the parallel to your Set(s).
refs_: List of PhRefs to keep them reachable until they get enqueued.
When I don't use Refs properly to clean things up, I get OutOfMemoryError after about 60 or 120 iterations. (I tried a couple different sizes for Dummy, so I forget where I am now.) With the Refs in place, I'm well over 100,000 iterations and still going.

Azure Dedicated Role Cache does not fire notification to client when call DataCache.Clear method

Hi,
I'm using Azure Dedicated Role cache and Enabled the local cache and notification.
<localCache isEnabled="true" sync="NotificationBased" objectCount="20000" ttlValue="3600" />
<clientNotification pollInterval="1" maxQueueLength="10000" />
but when I call DataCache.Clear method in one client, the notification does not send to all clients, the client's local cached content still been used.
is this a bug of Azure SDK 2.5?

I assume that you have correctly configured and enabled Cache notifications, instead of using the DataCache's clear method - have you tried clearing all regions in your cache because I am not sure if DataCache.Clear triggers the cache notification or not.
so your code should look something like this
foreach (string regionName in cache.GetSystemRegions())
cache.ClearRegion(regionName)
You can refer the link which explains about Triggering Cache Notifications https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee808091(v=azure.10).aspx

Clear() method

gridPane.getChildren().clear()
I just would like to know if above method call is recursive to wipe out everything?
The reason is I don't want anything to stay on stack.

This is not a recursive call:
    grid.add(category, 1, 0);
    Label chartTitle = new Label("Current Year");
    grid.add(chartTitle, 2, 0);
    Label chartSubtitle = new Label("Goods and Services");
    grid.add(chartSubtitle, 1, 1, 2, 1);
    grid.getChildren().addListener(new ListChangeListener<Node>() {
            public void onChanged(ListChangeListener.Change<? extends Node> c) {
                while (c.next()) {
                   System.out.println(c);
        grid.getChildren().clear();The clear method fired only one change notification.

Regarding remove() and clear () method

when we call clear() and remove(index) method for vector or hashtable, the element will be removed and the size decreases by one . The question is wheteher the memory will get freed when these methods are called?

Hi,
Vectors hold only references to other objects. Hence, when you "add or remove" elements to vectors, you are only adding or removing references to other objects in the heap.
Memory taken by objects in the heap is freed as per the whims of the garbage collector. Unless your program does some memory-intensive computation, the garbage collector might not even run during your program's execution phase.
If you have declared Vector v = new Vector();, the JRE will create a vector object in the heap, capable of storing 10 references. If you try to add an 11th reference to the vector, the Vector object will grow automatically by a default increment. Since in your code you are adding and removing references continuously, the Vector size will remain the same as long as the number of references never exceeds 10.

Excise invoice clearing method for customs

Hi Gurus
this is chandu , how to clear the excise invoice for imported materials is there any transactional code to plz tell me
Example: if suppose i'm importing a material from USA so how can i clear the customs duty to make a GR at my company plz help me in thios

Hi,
In Import procurement you hve separate pricing procedure, this you will assign to vendor.
Freight, Customs duties and others create as Planned delivery condition types. While defining the condition type you can define this option. Once you define in this way, while creating Purchase order against to tht condition type you can enter the vendor name(customs vendor).
For example Freight cost you hve to pay to C&F agent or FFAgent right ? In purchase order select the conditon type and click on details there you can enter the Vendor number. Like this do the same for custom duty condition types and enter customs vendor name.
In Invoice verification in MIRO select planned derivery costs then the system will show pop screen which contains the vendors entered against condition types. Select the required vendor (FFAgent for Freight charges, customs vendor for customs duties) and post the Invoice verification.
For material select Goods/Service items in MIRO, system by default it will take Imports vendor.
Before posting GR for import PO you hve to post the planned delivery costs in MIRO.
Hope its clear to you, still if u hve any questions let me know.
Flow is as follows.
1. create PO and enter the Customs vendor in condition types
2.Post customs duty in MIRO as planned delivery costs
3.MIGO
4.MIRO for Import vendor

Layouts looking 'right' in Dreamweaver

Hi all, I seem to have this reoccurring problem, when I
design layouts, I get them the way I want they look great in
IE/Firefox but when working on them in Dreamweaver the layout looks
messy and sometimes quite hard to work with.... I attach my CSS and
XHTML, just to make sure i'm not designing it wrong...
Thanks for any help in advance

The most common cause for this is the use of negative

DW's design view
(e.g., 'overflow:hidden', or those using the content style).

Difference between vector obj.clear() and Vector obj = null

What is the difference between clearing the Vector object with .clear() method and assigning null value to Vector object?
As per memory point of view, is it advisable to first clear vector and then assaign it to null for garbage collection or it doesn't make any difference.
Vector may contains large volume of data.
Please reply this if any one has fair idea regarding this.
Thanks in advance.
Deepalee

What is the difference between clearing the Vector
object with .clear() method and assigning null value
to Vector object?
Vector victor = new Vector(); //victor is a reference to a Vector object
victor.clear(); //now that Vector object has no elements
victor = null; //now victor is a null reference; it doesn't point to any Vector object
//if that was the only reference to that Vector, the Vector is now available to be GC'ed.
As per memory point of view, is it advisable to first
clear vector and then assaign it to null for garbage
collection or it doesn't make any difference.Hard to say. My gut says there will be no advantages to first clearing it. You'd have to try and measure.

Not able to clear the cenvat suspense account

Hi Experts,
Is there any T.code or short-cut method to find out the clearing documents for every open items in cenvat suspense account. Is it possible to run in the automatic clearing method through T.code:F.13
in the absence of month end processing.
Thanks & Regards,
J.Francis

Yes , you can clear the clearing account even you are not doing month end process via f.13 subject to you have configured the Automatic clearing in system.
You can find the clearing document in FBL3n itself by screen layout. Or in BSEG table AUBGL feild gives you details of clering document .
Hope this will helps you

Video Clear

Hi everyone, I'm trying to create a videochat using Flex 3
and Flash Media server and I have some problems with the method
"Clear" of Video object. When a user stop publishing its stream
(from the webcam), I receive an event because a shared object
property (with the id of the publisher) changes to "null". At this
time, I invoke the method "clear" of the video object that contains
the stream, but the screen (videoDisplay containing the video
object) doesn't change. I continue seeing the last frame received.
What can I do? Thanks!!

You could also subclass the VideoDisplay control and add your
own public "clear()" method which calls the
mx_internal::videoPlayer.clear() code.
[ActionScript]
package {
import mx.controls.VideoDisplay;
import mx.core.mx_internal;
public class MyVideoDisplay extends VideoDisplay {
public function MyVideoDisplay() {
//TODO: implement function
super();
public function clear():void {
pause();
mx_internal::videoPlayer.clear();
[/ActionScript]

Font (times) not showing up in Dreamweaver, not in preferences font list

I'm on a computer using 10.6.8, Snow Leopard and Dreamweaver CS5. When we apply a style of Times New Roman to the text, it remains in it's default state (sans serif). When we apply a font family style, including times and a default serif font, the font still appears sans serif. This makes it seem like dreamweaver thinks the font it has is times, or it would default down the font family chain. When we preview in the browser the correct times new roman font is used.
I thought it might be all adobe apps, but photoshop and illustrator display times just fine. We've validated the font in font book, cleared up duplicate problems with other fonts in font book. We've used onyx to clear the font cache several times. After clearing the catch dreamweaver goes into some kind of font routine and takes about 15 minutes to get out of it. When I sample this process from activity monitor I see it running tons of font related routines. One time after this routine the correct times new roman font appeared! But after a program restart it disappeared again. Please help! We've spent hours already on this yesterday and am not looking forward to losing another half day today!

In addition to onyx I've also used the recommended "Font Finagler" application for clearing the font cache and working with fonts. It and font book both seem to validate and approve the times new roman font.
I logged in as another user and experienced the same problem.
In addition, I have a host of other fonts in the aphabetical ti-uvwxy range, and none of them show up in my font list in the system preferences font drop down. "Times", the first fallback font for the font family is within this missing range as well and does not show up. I know this list is for choosing the system fonts for the interface but I think it further points towards there being some kind of bug or problem with loading my entire font list into the application.
Again, these fonts work fine in the other adobe applications, just not in dreamweaver. I'll try and upload an image of the font list. You'll see it cuts off right at fonts that start with "th" even though I have loads of other fonts between t-z.

Issue with clearing a grayed out search criteria field

Hi,
I have grayed out a field ABC for its default value XYZ in the search criteria of lead search...
But when I click the CLEAR button, it clears the XYZ value of field ABC..
I don't want the value of ABC to be cleared...
Do I need to redefine the CLEAR method?
How do I achieve this purpose?
Thanks
Madhukar

Hi Madhukar,
go to your eh_onclear event place the break point check the code where exactly parameters values are clearing. copy the standard code redefine the method eh_onclear past the code in your redefine method and change the logic where exactly the parameters are clearing as a standard.
ex as the above code:
WHILE lr_param IS BOUND.
     lr_param->get_properties( IMPORTING es_attributes = ls_param ).
in ls_param you will get ATTR_NAME as ur field and low,high sign option values
check this ls_param-ATTR_NAME ne 'urfield'. clear the content else check the low and high value of the remaining field values.
     IF ( ls_param-low IS NOT INITIAL ) OR
        ( ls_param-high IS NOT INITIAL ).
       CLEAR: ls_param-low, ls_param-high.
       lr_param->set_properties( EXPORTING is_attributes = ls_param ).
     ENDIF.
     lr_param = lr_iterator->get_next( ).
   ENDWHILE.
if you want more info share me your component and view name.
Thanks & Regards,

Dreamweaver template to update file other than html?

Hi,
I am using Dreamweaver CS4 to manage my website.
The problem is i cannot get Dreamweaver to update my .tpl (php template)
Any idea?
Thanks

Thanks,
I finally figure it out how to get if fix.
May be i should say it clear, i use dreamweaver template which is a dwt file to update all html pages in my website.
But some of the file i use which is tpl extension (the same as html file but with template variables). The dreamweaver
did not recognize it. The page did not show up when i make changes in dwt file.
Then what i do is change the "configuration" > "DocumentTypes", so that dreamweaver recognize tpl as a type of html file.
After that i change extension.txt file also. Rebuild site cache. And now its done.

Reflection and the field.set method

OK, I've made 2 classes, a ClearParent and ClearChild (which extends ClearParent). I'd like to have a "clear" method on the parent which dynamically sets all the fields to null. I'd like to be able to have any child that inherits from the parent be able to call clear and dynamically have all it's fields set to null.
Part of the restriction that I'm facing is that the fields are Objects (Integer) but the getter and setter methods take and return types (int). So I can't just loop through the Methods and call the setters with null.
I'd like to be able to loop through the fields and call set for all the fields with the parent class.
I'm inserting the code that I have for the parent and child classes at the end. Basically, the problem that I'm seeing is that if I do a
this.getClass().getName()
from the parent (when clear is called from the child) it shows me the child name ("ClearChild"). But when I try to do the
field.set(this, null)
it tells me this:
Class ClearParent can not access a member of class
ClearChild with modifiers "private"
How come when I get the name it tells me that it's the child but when I pass "this" to the set method, it says that it's the parent?
Any one know what's going on here? Is there anyway that I can have the parent set all the fields to null?
Thanks in advance.
Here's the code:
ClearParent
import java.lang.reflect.*;
public class ClearParent {

ClearChild
public class ClearChild extends ClearParent {
private Float f;
public ClearChild() {
super();
public float getF() {
if (f == null) {
return 0;
return f.floatValue();
public void setF(float f) {
this.f = new Float(f);
public static void main (String[] args) throws Exception {
ClearChild cc = new ClearChild();
cc.setF(23);
cc.clear();
System.out.println("cc.getF: " + cc.getF());

It is an instance of ClearChild that is being used so
that class name is ClearChild. However, the method
exists in the parent class and thus cannot act upon a
private field of another class (even if it happens to
be a subclass).Ahh...makes sense.
Why don't you just override clear in the child?We were trying to avoid this because we run into problems in the past of people adding fields to the class, but not adding to the clear, and things not being cleared properly.
I talked it over with the guys here and they have no problem making the fields protected instead of private. If it's protected, then the parent has access to it and my sample code works.
Thanks for your help KPSeal!
