Answer to Weblog Question for Sumith Rajagopalan

Sumith Rajagopalan I hope that you read the BSP question forum as well as the weblogs. You posted a question in the discussion forum on the following weblog:
/people/thomas.jung3/blog/2004/08/09/bsp-download-to-excel-in-unicode-format
For some reason I can no longer post comments to this or any other weblog right now. I assume there is problem on the SDN side. Therefore I thought I would post the answer here until the problem is resolved.
It appears to be a simple typo in your code. You had:
response->set_header_field(
name = 'content_disposition'
value = 'attachment;filename=webforms.xls' ).
The correct code is:
response->set_header_field(
      name = 'content-disposition'
      value = 'attachment;
      filename=webforms.xls' ).
Please note that is is a dash not an underscore in the content-disposition header field name.

Yes Thomas, it was the typo. Thanks. It is working perfectly now.

Please answer a programming question for an admin

I'm not a programmer (although my interest is growing), so I can't answer this question in a discussion regarding how Win32API w/OLE and COM is SO much better than programming for Unix/OS X applications.
The original discussion was in regards to OS X's superior Unix based security, he devolved to this. Having only begun my venture into programming, his questions are a little above my head at this point. I'm also interested (as an amature programmer), how this would be accomplished in OS X/Unix.
Thanks in advance.
Here's his position:
*(1st entry)*
I have unsed Windows and many flavors of Unix and I have written programs in Assembler, Fortran, Pascal, Cobol, RPG, Smalltak, Basic, PowerBuilder, Delphi, C, C++, C#, Java, and Perl, and I have been programming for over 20 years, so I do have extensive knowledge about programming.
So I have one question for you:
If you had to build a business application that has to allow users to, spell and grammer check, and perform financial calculations, and render the HTML, how would you compare the effort to do this in Windows versus that in Linux, AIX, Solaris or any other Unix operating system?
I can make this business application have these features in ONE DAY on Windows, because COM and OLE lets me, use Word to spell and grammer check, Excel to do the financial calculations, and IE to render the HTML!
I make my living building complex customized business software, and Windows allow me to build these applications by myself in weeks, when it would take me and a team of programmers months to do these same things in Unix because of the lack of an the Win32 API, COM, and OLE, or I would have to BUY third party libraries that did these things, and deal with the licensing, versioning, and vendor problems that go with them, and none of those third party librabries would be close to Word, Excel, and IE in CAPABILITY!
HONESTLY tell me and others reading this thread how you would go about create the customized business application I described above by yourself in a Unix instead of Windows, and tell us how many MONTHS or YEARS it would take you, or how you would have to BUY some other third party libraries to do what Word, Excel, and IE!
Anyone who thinks a Unix has more CAPABILITIES than Windows, has never used Win32API/COM/OLE/.Net, and does not build customized complex business software for a living, because we people that do are the reason that you find some much customized business desktop software for Windows, and so little for any Unix.
I have nothing against Unix, and it is great for simple business tasked server software, but for complex business tasked desktop software Windows with Win32API/COM/OLE/.Net wins hands down!
*(2nd Entry)*
A System administrators view of an operating system and an application developers view are entirely different, and the Win32API/COM/OLE/.NET simply make my job so much easier, and you simply don't understand because you do not have to deal with the "dirty' details of making what a user wants, which is why your definition of "integration" and mines are totally different!
With the spell check you talked about, how will you keep in in synch with the dictionary in Word where the user is constantly adding and removing words?
No, you would have the user to have to maintain two different spell check dictionaries, and you would totally ignore the grammer check requirement!
Cutting and pasting data between applications is simple integration, and not the complex type that I am talking about.
Can you make your application display and use the MacGourmet menus appear in its own window, and to access and use the MacGourmet functionality (ie. search for a recipe) in its own window?
Give me one example of a Unix application that can display the menus of another application, yet alone control its features!
Of course you can't, because you need COM and OLE!
I am quite familiar with different flavors of Unix, but those operating systems do not have the rich API and program integration features namely COM and OLE that Windows has, because it violates the Unix idea of security by process isolation!
Yes that idea of process isolation keeps the operating system safe from malicious code in applications and from one application taking the others down, but you lose the power of programs working together, and you simply cannot build the type of customized business applications that I build by myself, without reinventing the wheel over and over and without having a large team with lots of programmers.
For example, my customers and millions of others spend all day working in Word and Excel, and the Windows idea that I can transparently integrate my complex business applications right in Word and Excel menu, and into their templates and macros, is why third party developers like me prefer Windows over Unix, regardless of how much better security in Unix is.
Do not get me wrong, Java improves business application development on Unix, but unfortuantely it is not feasable to rewrite ever legacy application in Java, and Java does not integrate well with other programming languages.
I used to code business application for both IBM MVS and Sun Solaris, and I never want to go back to those "bad" old days again, once I took the time to learn how to PROPERLY code using Win32API/COM/OLE/.NET!

At risk of feeding the troll I'll wander in here:
NOTE: Since this is an Apple programming boards and I have limited experience programming on traditional Unix systems (and most of that in college) I will confine my answers to the area I know.
If you had to build a business application that has to allow users to, spell and grammer check, and perform financial calculations, and render the HTML, how would you compare the effort to do this in Windows versus that in Linux, AIX, Solaris or any other Unix operating system?
I can make this business application have these features in ONE DAY on Windows, because COM and OLE lets me, use Word to spell and grammer check, Excel to do the financial calculations, and IE to render the HTML!
Note that this scenario assumes the user has Microsoft office installed. The person argues that they don't have to purchase libraries to program but what they are effectively doing is simply transferring that cost to user. I don't have to purchase libraries but everyone of my users needs to. Good for you, very good for Microsoft but bad for your customer - IMHO. OK, I know "But all Windows business users have Office installed already." When it comes free with the system then I'll retract my objection.
Under OS X and Cocoa many of these functions are intrinsic to the system layer and do not require any applications to be installed. Using Cocoa you can write a simple Word processor that has rulers, full font manipulation (including kerning, spacing and leading), Document Save and Load, Printing, Export to PDF as well as spell-checking in under 10 lines of actual code. Adding a custom file type and icon for full system integration will add another 5 minutes to your programing.
In case you think I'm blowing smoke here is a tutorial from 2002 (yes, this has been possible for over 5 years) outlining the 8 line Word Processor build in Cocoa. http://www.stone.com/TheCocoa_Files/What_s_sofunny.html
And yes, Cocoa also includes Webkit so I can add full HTML rendering by dragging in a WebKit window to my user interface. For an experienced Cocoa programmer this certainly sounds like less than a day of programming - in fact it sounds like a good tutorial for a middle-experienced training day or 2 day class in Cocoa.
I won't include the link to the 1 line web browser you can build in Cocoa using Webkit because it's shorter than the description. Feel free to search for it if you want to.
HONESTLY tell me and others reading this thread how you would go about create the customized business application I described above by yourself in a Unix instead of Windows, and tell us how many MONTHS or YEARS it would take you, or how you would have to BUY some other third party libraries to do what Word, Excel, and IE!
BUT this is all done from the stock system that is on every OS X computer not simply those with Office installed. Obviously you'd need to add some features that were more complicated than this - because any halfway decent programmer could turn this stuff out - and polish takes a while but to meet the requirements of the challenge it would take 2 days tops.
Is every *nix programming environment like this? I don't know I can only answer for the system that I have experience with and is the concern of this board. If you really have questions regarding *nix programming then I suggest you find an appropriate board and troll^H^H^H^H^H ask there.
If you're ever serious about programming on the Mac feel free to stop by and actually take a look at it. I think you'll be surprised.

How do we change/recover the answers to security questions for AppleID?

My grandsons forgot the answers to their security questions for their AppleID and can't download from the iBookstore. How can we reset them? I went into Manage my Apple ID but it is asking us for the answers. Thanks.

If they have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on their account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into the account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.

I have a problem trying to answer my security questions for iTunes. And for some reason the backup email I gave which sends the answers is completely useless to me. How can I fix this? I just want to watch a movie on iTunes.

Please help

If the email hasn't arrived after a few hours and isn't in a spam filter, you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

Mind answering some basic questions for a few bright HS students?

I am a HS computer science teacher who seeks a professional mentor regarding JDBC. While I have successfully
- installed a MySQL database,
created, queried, updated the database,
- read the Java Tutorial and:
used Connect/J and written a main method to manipulate a
database
created very simple applets to query or update a database with
their run methods.
I have basic questions about how pieces fit together in web application development and how one can best take advantage of OOP when dealing with a database. My motivation are a few very bright post-AP students who have an excellent grasp of OOP and data structures; they are curious to see how Java is used in web applications.
The sample code I have found on the Web has all been small main method examples. I would like to see and discuss a truly OOD application with JDBC, and to discuss how the pieces fit together.
So, aware of our ignorance and of how dangerous a little knowledge can be, and not expecting to go live with an application anytime soon, we seek a very high level understanding of current professional practice (like: "Where does tomcat fit in here?") as well as some direction while we get our hands dirty. (I hope that makes sense.)
If you have time to correspond with us via e-mail, answer some very basic questions, and perhaps take a look at some code as we work through it, we would love to hear from you off-line ([email protected]). We would also appreciate knowing where to look for a good OOD sample application. Thanks.

Complete this tutorial and you will have a much better understanding.

Just answer a simply question for me! Is the latest release of FF a 64-bit system? Flash has issues w/64bit; needs 32bit browser. I've had to uninstall. No where do I find the answer

Been using FF for many years. Then, it wouldn't work with 64bit systems. IE sucked too, but I had to use it. So, just got off IE and back to FF.
I was having Flash issues. Uninstalled it only to find out that it will not operate on a 64bit browser, but I can install a beta version of Flash, essentially. But, find no clear statement saying that FF is 64bit but will support 32bit. Even so, Flash will not operate as it should on FF.
Can I install the beta version of FLASH because FF is a full 64bit system?

Thanks. I thought FF was a 64-bit system. I'll reinstall FLASH and see if I can solve the problem. Since posting the issue I've been through my system with a fine toothed comb cleaning, reinstalling things and making room. Maybe all the work will pay off and FLASH will install without a problem. Thanks guys.

Can someone please answer some internet questions for me?

i just got a refurbished eMac with up to date software. i have a DSL router set up for the other computer i have, and I am wondering how (or IF) I can tag onto that service without having to pay for extra internet service. is this possible? if so what hardware would i have to buy?

Hi Jarod,
Yes you can network them, one can be wireless the other on ethernet, but i am not clear on the workings of an eMac, this Forum: Internet and Networking your eMac Good luck enjoy your new eMac : )

Can anyone translate this answer to my question for me =/

I've been doing pretty well with my Java programming and am getting into the 3D API and have been able to teach myself with the tutorial at the sun website. But the tutorial frequently references these examples I couldn't find, I just got some little .jar file. I asked how to get these examples and when I said I couldn't understand their answer they told me to come here.
"You need to extract the example files from the jar archive called
examples1_6.jar
with
jar xvf examples1_6.jar
if that is the small file you refer to
You can find out about the jar archives in the java sdk docs, and get a list of jar parameters with
jar -help
Make sure that the jar utility in java/bin is on your PATH
Hope helps"

Oh, well that explains pretty much everything and I've got it.
The file never had that winzip or winrar logo on it so I never thought to do that.
