Any US-based JavaCard training classes?

I'm looking for JavaCard training classes based in the US. I've seen one in Dublin and another in Prague, but for me the travel cost should be less than the tuition! <grin>
Specifically, I'm looking for a technical class on JC 2.2.1, with GlobalPlatform, and JCOP thrown in for good measure. Not looking for a marketing/sales class on how wonderful things would be if we'd only use smartcards, but a hands-on developer class with lab exercises, etc.
Any leads/comments/URLS appreciated in advance.
- Jeff

I've just wrote a simple accessor implementing the CardAccessor Interface myself. So it seems, that Javacard RMI now works in combination with the Smartcard IO interface.

Any good APEX training class in NJ?

Hi,
I'm a newbie to APEX. I'm at the point that I think I could use some serious APEX training.
what's your thought on APEX training? Did you folks just pick it up by yourself? How? BTW, the thousands of pages of User Manual/Advanced Tutorial do NOT help much, sometimes, they could be even confusing.
Any pointer to any good APEX training classes in NJ is appreciated. For some reason, APEX training in NJ is not on Oracle University's schedule. Or any other alternative? via video?
Thanks much,
Helen

I took the first two courses on APEX from DBCON (http://www.dbcon.com/courses.html). It's an online course which I'm not a huge fan of normally, but these two courses were helpful for me. The courses also included the "Pro Oracle Application Express" book which has also been helpful for me:

Disclaimer: I have absolutely no relationship with DBCON whatsoever. Just my two bits.

Online Training Classes

Hello,
I am looking for training with the creative cloud. Are there any online classes that go along with my subscription? I'm not talking about simple training videos - I need full training for my employees. Perhaps an online seminar?
Thanks!

I ended up taking the RCP Quickstart class online by Modular Mind and it more than met my expectations: Patrick (the instructor) covered the topics very thoroughly and I particularly liked the format of the class.
This online class lacks nothing in comparison to on-site training classes because the size of the class is small, the notes for the class are exceptional and you can ask any question at any time.
I was very happy with Patrick's passion and level of expertise not only in Eclipse plugin development and RCP but also in the maven-based build "tycho" which my team uses. I highly recommend this class to anyone who wants to learn RCP in a very fast and effective way.

Hands on training class coming up: what to expect?

Hi:
Finally, after more than 2 years, I am at the final stage of my OCP path, namely the Hands on Training.
What should we expect from this class? My class will be Performance Tuning for 10g.
Is there some kind of exam at the end? Are there specific texts used? Are there any group work based assignments? Homework?
I really want to get the most out of the experience so want to arrive prepared.
Cheers.

Hi Steve,
do not attend Oracle University classes . . . The other reason is that you have to in order to meet a requirement for certification. You are not alone there, many folkd see the hand-on OU course requirement as a money-grab:
[http://certcities.com/editorial/columns/print.asp?EditorialsID=112]
First, who is to say that Oracle University is the best place to acquire the necessary skills to become Oracle certified? There are other resources that can provide the same level of coverage of the exam topics and DBA roles. Granted, Oracle's exam objectives map nicely to the courses offered (on purpose, I'm sure), but how about those organizations that decide on bringing in someone to train their people on the same topics outlined in the exam objectives using non-Oracle material or instructors? Is the quality of their training different if the person performing the training is as qualified or better qualified than Oracle's own instructor? Furthermore, they're not breaking any licensing rules since they are legally allowed to use their Oracle licenses to train their own staff.
My second problem relates to the reason someone may decide to use a third-party training organization to provide these in-house classes -- the cost. Oracle University classes are quite expensive. By forcing OCP candidates to attend an Oracle University class Oracle is helping to ensure a revenue stream for its education division. Unfortunately, it may also have the effect of discouraging potential OCP candidates from pursuing their certification past the OCA stage. I always thought it was about getting qualified candidates out into the workforce, though it now appears the OCP certification is about filling seats in Oracle University classes.
This leads me to my third problem -- any of the Oracle University classes outlined above is valid in satisfying this requirement.
the instructors are typically very good and quite knowledgeable).I disagree! Some a GREAT, but most of them have very little real-world experience. Steve Karam was a senuior instructor at Oracle University, and he has some amazing stories . . .
I like this blog, from an OU student:
http://natalian.org/archives/2005/07/01/week-2-at-the-oracle-university/
Week 2 at Oracle University: ORACLE SUCKS ! ORACLE SUCKS ! ORACLE SUCKS ! ORACLE SUCKS ! ORACLE SUCKS ! ORACLE SUCKS ! ORACLE SUCKS ! ORACLE SUCKS ! ORACLE SUCKS ! ORACLE SUCKS !
Steve, I like your steps as an alternative to OU:
http://www.databasejournal.com/features/oracle/article.php/10893_3350951_2
+1. Download Oracle documentation and software. The only "cost" here involves having to register with Oracle Technology Network (OTN). Being a member of OTN is something you want to do. There are no negatives associated with belonging to OTN. All the documentation and Oracle software you could ever want is available here seven days a week at the same low cost to one and all: free. The only software you cannot get here is patch software. In a learning mode, the likelihood of you running into a bug that requires a patch is very low. What you miss out on by not having access to patches is exposure to the patch installation process. The top books or guides you should read are Concepts, Administrator's Guide (and its Windows version, plus Getting Started for Windows), Installation Guide for <fill in your OS> (and the release notes), Backup and Recovery Concepts, Net Services Administrator's Guide, and SQL*Plus User's Guide and Reference. That is over 3000 pages - and that is just to start with because there are plenty of other guides you will need to read.+
+2. Subscribe to Oracle Magazine. Published six times a year, this complimentary subscription provides news and information about Oracle straight from Oracle. Several of the regular columns are very good, first and foremost being Ask Tom by Tom Kyte. You should plan to make regular visits to Mr. Kyte's website at OTN.+
+3. Visit Oracle DBA websites. Most of these websites, including the originating source of this article at www.databasejournal.com, have a free question and answer forum. There are many very knowledgeable contributors to these forums. Some are exceptional in their knowledge. Be aware that all answers are not always correct, but even the wrong ones may help steer you in the right direction at times. Before posting a question, make some attempt on your own to have researched the answer. You can learn a lot by reading what is posted, but you will learn much more and much quicker if you participate in providing or posting answers. If you see a question no one has replied to yet, look up the answer and post it. This means spending a portion of your day surfing the websites and doing the research and writing, so be aware that this type of internet usage during working hours may not be condoned by your employer (i.e., do it on your own time).+
+4. Join a local user's group. These generally are not free, and many companies will sponsor their employees in these groups. Some groups have free access to online technical information (even without being a member). Many groups have quarterly meetings with guest speakers who cover a wide range of topics. Better yet are the groups who host annual training days. Oracle's OpenWorld event is the ultimate in this realm, and it commands a hefty price just to attend. Oracle also hosts (free) Technology and Developer Days, which are half to full day events where Oracle representatives put on demos or present lectures on some aspect of a new or hot Oracle feature.+
+5. Buy books, and lots of them. What is missing in one is usually covered in another similar book. You are no longer in the land of the free (really, that's not a political statement), so you'll need to contain your costs here. eBay is an excellent source of acquiring books. One of the best places to purchase new books is at www.bookpool.com. Bookpool virtually always beats Amazon and other online booksellers, and it always beats the price you pay when buying from a "brick and mortar" store. Barnes & Noble, Borders and other storefront sellers (including their online stores) almost always cost more than what you can find at Bookpool. Which books to buy? Anything from O'Reilly is going to be good. Oracle Press is a mixed bag of quality and is generally my publisher of last resort. Oracle8i DBA Bible by Jonathan Gennick et al is excellent. Mr. Gennick co-authored O'Reilly's Oracle Net8 Configuration and Troubleshooting, which is a superb reference on Oracle networking. Once you are ready for the nitty-gritty details, you will need Expert One-on-One by Tom Kyte (now published by APress, and previously by Wrox). This book is the gold standard of Oracle. Do not buy books for older versions of Oracle. Buying the complete reference set for Oracle7 is a complete waste of money, as are many of the Oracle8 books (do not bother with the Oracle 8 exam prep book either). Oracle8i books are still quite relevant, and there have not been that many definitive books on Oracle9i.+
+6. Buy a set of certification books and get certified. I happen to like the Sybex series for OCP. Not only do the books provide you a fair amount of preparation for the certification exams, they also come in handy as reference books (they are full of examples and command syntax). The package deal for 8i (three books) is cheaper than buying each book separately. In addition to buying the certification prep books, you should be certified. Do not cheat yourself and go down the cheat-sheet road for certification. Put in the time to study and pass. Not only do you learn Oracle, you get some recognition for it as well. Some tests are easier than others are, but it always feels good seeing the green bar being longer than the red bar. The Self Test Software exam prep programs are dead on with respect to what the real exams are like. Individually, they are around $100 each, but STS frequently has sales promotions where you can realize significant savings. The online version is the cheaper way to go. You do not really need the CD's after you pass an exam.+
NOTE: If you are thinking about getting Oracle8i certified, today is not too late to start. On May 1st, Oracle announced the retirement of the 8i track. You have until the end of 2004 to complete all of the 8i exams. If you have any aspirations of becoming an Oracle9i OCP, your path here should include first becoming an 8i OCP. Your cost to become a 9i OCP is one upgrade exam. No ILT requirement. That alone saves you $2500. It's not too late, but time is running out.
+7. Purchase an online training program (or use what your company may already have). Oracle has self-study CD courses, as do other vendors. At $250 per day for instructor-led online courses, you can "attend" the same classes you pay $500 per day in person. You can also purchase a one-year subscription to an online library with over 400 courses. Here is a tip if your company is in the partners program: did you know you already have a free subscription to this online library? Otherwise, the cost is only $280.+
+8. Pay for training on your own. At the high end of the cost scale, you can pay for classes and training at a private company. Before signing a contract and spending around $3000 for a three month or 250 hour long program of instruction (POI), do some homework. Is the company reputable? Has it experienced a lot of instructor turnover? Are the instructors well qualified to be teaching Oracle database administration in the first place? Do you get your own workstation or PC while in class? Any guarantees of retaking a class module if you fail an exam? Do they offer financing? Are other package deals available (e.g., learn UNIX and Oracle at the same time)? Is the company being sued for copyright infringement (using some other company's training material and isn't it strange the front page is always missing on their handouts)? Do books come with class, or do you buy those on your own? If they come with the class, see if you can purchase them on your own and save some money. Most employers offer tuition reimbursement, but do not be surprised if your employer will not or cannot offer this to you. The reason why? Because tuition reimbursement programs require that the POI result in an academic grade.+

Why don't I see any of my application's classes in Mission Control?

Hi Forum,
My system: JRockit JVM version R28.0.0-679-130297-1.6.0_17-20100312-2123-windows-ia32, Oracle® JRockit Mission Control 4.0.0 (M4.0.0-20, 130319); JAX-WS annotated Web Services; EJB 3.0 annotated SLSBs;
When either analyzing the live remote WLS/OSB server through JRMC's management console, or viewing a previously-dumped jfr file in JRMC, how come I don't see any of my application's classes in any of the various traces (memory, gc, events, etc.)?
The application's architecture is basically:
                         OSB
     (proxies, xquery transformations, biz svcs)
                          |
                         WLS
           (jms, jax-ws, ejb, jdbc, jaxb)                         I've created and viewed a couple dozen jfr recordings. I've patiently trawled the management console traces. But I've yet to see any of my application's classes; nor any of the classes from the apis I've listed in my "WLS" layer above (jms, jax-ws, ejb, jdbc, jaxb).
All I ever see in JRMC's management console or in my flight recordings are either classes at the OSB infrastructure-related, or WLS container-related classes. Plus, of course, the usual JDK classes.
Based on the "Shows classes that take up more than 0.5% of the heap..." label I've seen displayed on the "Object Statistics/Heap Contents" tab, I've been assuming that my applications classes (plus those other api classes above) just don't take up more than half a percent of the heap. Is that right? If so, then that's "a good thing"! Right?
If I've assumed incorrectly, please can anybody fill me in on where to look, or how to see more application-related classes?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,
That sounds really strange, I can't imagine how some classes could be filtered out. There is no filtering mechanism built into the JVM, the Management Console or Flight Recorder.
Are you 100.00% sure you are connected to the right JVM and that your application has loaded correctly?
I've been assuming that my applications classes (plus those other api classes above) just don't take up more than half a percent of the heap. Is that right? If so, then that's "a good thing"! Right?
There is a cut off around 0.5%, if it's good or bad thing depends on what your application is supposed to do :)
If you want to see all classes with the exact count you can use the Memory Leak Detector, but you have to go to Window -> Preferences-> JRockit Mission Control->Memory Leak Detector->Trend and set the instance count threshold to zero.
Best regards
Erik

Advanced Muse Training Classes/Trainer

I'm looking for a training class for Muse (Intermediate/Advanced) in the NYC/Long Island area or a skilled private trainer.. preferably a 1 or 2 day training course.. there doesn't seem to be much out there. I have many ideas but am having trouble executing and therefore, my project has come to a standstill. Please respond to my post or message me if you can help. Thanks!

the website you are referring (it's nice) does use other programs i note, which probably means some expertise in html JS and Adobe Edge (i love Edge) as much as Muse. For instance Muse has no scroll widget. I wanted a scroll capability once (and it has been recommended here before), but then i learnt to live without it and now frankly, with all the alternatives that Muse has to offer, i'd rather not use it even if it were available. The beauty of Muse is of course its simplicity and dare i say functionality (there are some things i wish they would remedy particulry when using video) which, I think, have made me a far better website designer.
So, in a sense, there's nothing really complicated about Muse and that's why I recommended lynda.com. I'm cool with basic, since Rembrandt's tools were just that. As for private training classes, I am not much help, but if there are any in your area i'm sure they will have made there whereabouts known through Google. Good luck with your project.

TopLink training class -

Does Oracle TopLink provide any training class or technical seminar in the North America, free or not free? If yes, where can I get the class/seminar schedule and location?
Thanks for the reply!

I believe there is a course offered by Oracle University but it is only run on a private basis.
We also have had a high demand for Oracle Consulting services where a more mentoring approach is taken to knowledge transfer that you may be interested in if you are already initiated with the use of TopLink.
In either case if you have issues getting resources please let me know. douglas.clarke at oracle.com.

Setting breakpoint on any method call of a class

Using the new (or old) debugger, is it possible to set a breakpoint that will stop on any method invocation of a class?
I am debugging the processing of a purchase order and want the debugger to stop on any method call to CL_PO_HEADER_HANDLE_MM, which has 113 methods, so setting a breakpoint in each method is way too tedious.
Do you know of a way to do this in one go?

Activate Layer-Aware Debugging for class CL_PO_HEADER_HANDLE_MM, and then set breakpoint on statement CALL METHOD.
I tried for CL_GUI_ALV_GRID, and it worked. I am on 702 release.

How to specify different horizontal restore & collapse icon for af|panelSplitter using Skinning based on Style class or position?

Hello,
I am trying to provide different horizontal restore & collapse icon for af|panelSplitter using Skinning based on Style class or position. I have 2 af:panelSplitter with orientation="horizontal" - One with positionedFromEnd="true" one with positionedFromEnd="false".

CSS attribute selectors are what you are talking about, but binding the selector with EL is a more-common approach. Using selectors like this require you to ensure browser support.

Hi Bob,
Do you mean ones run by Oracle or by others? I have no idea about the Oracle ones, but there is currently some APEX 3.0 training being run at ODTUG (which I assume you're not at), also there is some APEX 3.0 advanced training in Brussels in September being run by myself and Dimitri Gielis.

Training classes for webdynpro?

Hi,
does anyone know, if or when SAP education will offer training classes for WebDynpro?
I was looking for it on the Market Place, but could not find anything.
Thanks,
Patricia

Hi Patricia,
     Unfortunately, the formalized training for Web Dynpro is still in the beta stages. I was one of the instructors at the first session of RDWAS2 (which focuses on development within the Web Application Server 6.40 including heavy Web Dynpro content) that had external customers in attendance just last week. The class was still in "Beta" mode and not open to the general public. There is a bit of tweaking still to do on the content, but I expect you will see a general scheduling of the course in the near future. (Formalized training can lag a general customer release by up to 6 months, but I think this one will be out more quickly.)
     Hope this helps,
       --Greg

Tom,
Just to add in some my thoughts.. You probably get more money from the OKP materials than the standard courses IMHO. If you don't already have a license for the CRM 40, CRM 50 and CRM 2006s/2007 OKP materials then you should purchase it. The OKP materials for CRM 40 almost cover the fundamentals of how the system works and the associated functionality. It is quite easy then to pick each new release after reading the 40 baseline materials.
You will probably learn more by working with a CRM sandbox or building actual scenario than what the classes can teach you. The classes are good if you need an overview of the material and want to get away from your office and focus on learning.
I have somehow managed to in the last several years to get by with very little classroom training, but tons of self study using the system materials and OKP materials. I don't claim to know every aspect of CRM, but you can get things done on your own.
Oh btw the material you found online is probably an illegal copy of that material.
Take care,
Stephen
