AQ to be phased out and replaced by Weblogic JMS??

I work at a large company in Los Angeles and was recently in a meeting with our architecture team where i was trying to make a case for using AQ for some internal apps.
I had not used AQ in the past but found it very easy to set up and get running in a proof of concept test case.
However, in my meeting I was informed by our main architect that:
1) AQ was not an enterprise solution and had never been fully completed or vetted in production environments.
2) AQ queues "get stuck" when processing large numbers of messages.
3) Contacts at Oracle had told him that AQ is being phased out in the very near term in favor of JMS Queues in Weblogic.
Based on the above statements by our architecture group, our company has essentially disallowed any development on AQ.
Are these statements true?
Thanks.

Your architect is incorrect on multiple counts.
1. AQ is definitely in use as an enterprise solution in a wide variety of very larger "name" corporations.
2. So do insert statements. The statement has no meaning unless it has a context. Have this person state the hardware, operating system, database version, and metrics and present the numbers. Try to not to gloat when they can't. Everything has a limitation. But my bet is they have no idea what AQ's is.
3. Ask for the name and contact information for the person at Oracle that made that statement: It is preposterous on its face. AQ is a foundation technology in RAC, Streams, the Grid Control, and numerous other technologies. Oracle is not removing these technologies from the database any more than they are going to force all database customers to install middleware.
The only thing that should be removed is your architect for a lack of being honest with the team and management.
Feel free to have your management contact me directly at the university if they wish to have me confirm what I have written here.

Is QuickTime Pro being phased out and replaced by new quicktime player ?

Where are scrub bar edit points and what is happening to Pro version since the new Quicktim Player app?

Where are scrub bar edit points and what is happening to Pro version since the new Quicktim Player app?
I haven't seen all that many changes to QT 7 Pro since the introduction of Lion and the default turning off of legacy codecs. Since you use the term "scrub bar," I assume you are referring to the play progress bar and playhead control which can be used for scrubbing content, as well as, the setting of "in" and "out" editing points. As you can see by the image below, the bar and editing pointers are still available and functioning under Mavericks as they have been since the context adaptive change several years/systems ago.
In addition, for those who prefer it, the Jog Shuttle contol is still available in the QT 7 A/V control panel.
As to your original topic question, only Apple knows what its timetable may be for the final phasing out of the QT 7 Player/Pro Player software. And, while it is likely that it will eventually be replaced, I for one, can at least hope that this won't take place until such time as Apple has actually developed viable software with the same editing features and capabilities. However, at this time, QT 7 Pro remains compatible with Apple's choice of a long-term, highly scalable default system video compression format—MPEG-4 AVC. Since the handwriting was effectively "written on the wall" in 2005 when Apple chose to use this format on the iPod Classic 5th Gen mobile device, I began migrating to this format at that time. As a result, I have had little problem in terms of compatibility issues over the years. My only real regret is having to re-compress my files each time Apple increases maximum resolutions, efficiency, or adds options and, with the advent of 4K and Real 3D, expect this trend will continue in the future. But, at least for the present, my files remain dual compatible with both classic QT 7 and new QT X based apps, system features like QL, and all current mobile/remote viewing devices.

If wjosten's tip doesn't work try plugging it into a USB charger (not through your computer), wait about 30 seconds and it should come on. If it doesn't remove the cord from the phone and keep trying this. I've had this same issue and found a combination of the reset & charging cable tends to work. Sometimes it takes about 5 minutes for the phone to respond.
Best of luck.

Taking out and replacing memory and hard drive.

Hey so I want to get a macbook pro 13 in. and I want to upgrade it by putting in more memory and a better hard drive, but I want to buy parts from a different site because it is so much cheaper. Is it easy to take out and replace the memory and hard drive of a macbook pro?

Just make sure the RAM you're buying is brand name and match the specs of your macbook.
Getting cheaper RAM modules sometimes cause issues with the way your Macbook peforms. Learned that lesson when I decided to buy Kingston Value RAM. Had nothing but trouble.
Stick with brands like Crucial ( which I use ), Corsair, Mushkin, Kingston (non value) and from OWC.
As for the hard drive, stay away from Western Digital Blue edition, some macbooks have issues with them.
Also make sure you buy an external USB enclosure so you can clone your drive before you intall it and install your old drive in the USB enclosure and use it as your backup drive.
If you're technically capable, it quite easy swapping out the RAM and Hard Drive.
Do the clone first before you do anything else. That way, when you're done the clone, you just have to open up your macbook once to do the swap.
Good luck and hope everything goes smoothly for you.
Post back if you need a hand or have any questions.

CMT and using non-Weblogic JMS in a session bean

          I am writing a session bean which sends a JMS message using a non-weblogic JMS
          provider. This bean is marked for CMT and I want the JMS send to participate in
          this CMT as well. My understanding is that I should be able to do this by defining
          a <resource-ref> element in the ejb-jar.xml and a corresponding <resource-descriptor>
          element in the weblogic-ejb-jar.xml file. The bean would then use the <res-ref-name>
          defined under the <resource-ref> element to lookup the connection factory. What
          do I have to put in weblogic-ejb-jar.xml file to make sure that the connection
          factory specified in <res-ref-name> maps to a connection factory that is in a
          foreign JNDI provider (e.g. in the non-Weblogic JMS provider's JNDI) and not in
          Weblogic's JNDI?
          Thanks in advance for your help.


It sounds like you're using Tibco JMS to receive messages from the MDB, and
          then to send out a message. WLS 7.0 will handle the transaction enlistment
          properly when it receives messages for the MDB, but you'll have to enlist
          the JMS provider yourself when you send the message, using the white paper
          that Tom pointed you to as a guide.
          In WLS 8.1, coming soon, we'll automatically enlist the provider in the
          transaction if you look it up using a "resource-ref" element in the EJB like
          you described. Today, you can use that element but no transaction
          enlistement is being done.

Event title wiped out and replaced w 'New Event'

when I add an event to iCal and type in the subject, I add it to my calendar... (synced via iCloud) and then when I go back to view the calendar, the actual text typed into the subject line is gone and only 'New Event' shows up.
I have to think it has something to do with iCloud syncing..

If they are in the camera roll, you can import them to the computer as you would from any other digital camera. If they are NOT in the camera roll, you will need to use a 3rd party utility to extract them from the phone. Not that photos that were synced TO the phone (i.e. NOT in the camera roll) are stored at a reduced resolution. They are not full resolution photos as the originals. It's better than nothing, though, I suppose. I'm assuming you did NOT have a backup of your computer before it went down.

ECC 5.0 version phased out for certificaiton

Hi Gurus
I had applied for direct certification for SD module to SAP. Since i was eligible my profile got approved by SAP and hence i was eligible to give that certification exam for ECC 5.0. I completed all the formalities like sending the DD, Required consent letter, supporting letter from company etc etc.
As per the policy i am suppose to give the exam within the 4 months after they receive the documents,
i received their confirmation of "documents received" on 14th Aug 2009.
So that means i can give the exam till 14th Dec 2009
When i mailed them today for some info regarding the exam they suddenly said that ECC 5.0 has been phased out from 18th sept 2009 and hence I am not allowed to appear for exam. I was prepared and wanted to give exam on 16th Oct as per their schedule. But now i can't. I requested them to allow me for ECC 6.0 which they are denying.
I am wondering what kind of policy they have.They didn't even intimate me that it has been phased out.Haven't I mail them today i wouldn't have even known that it has been phased out and i cannot give the exam.
Is there anything else i can do. I want to give my certification exam. I am thoroughly prepared and have invested lot of time in my preparation.
Please suggest what can be done
Looking forward for some positive inputs
Regards,
D Patel

Can anyone please suggest an alternative

Phasing out ECC 6.0 Certification

Hi,
From my resources i come to know that SAP is phasing out there ECC 6.0 Certification w.e.f 31st dec 2010. Is this true, wat if someis just enroll in the course and will not able to give the exam by december.
Regards,
Kapil.

Hi Kapil,
Yes its tru that ECC 6.0 is phasing out and only tfin52_64 based on the enhancement pack wil be available for certification from now on.
And as far as the certification goes, all the institutes have got prior guidelines from SAP itself in the month of november, as not to give anymore enrollments into that module as one needs to complete 200 hrs. of training.
In case u are talkin about the e learing part in which a student has 5 mnths to prepare and has enorlled for the same but hv nt givn the certification yet, he must have been given prior deadlines by the institute to appear for the same.If still not appearing then a fresh new enrollment needs to be done onto the newer version.
Rgds,

Any kind of integration experience with Weblogic JMS and Oracle AQ?

Hi,
In my company I work with java developers who believe in some kind of "holly" database independence I don't understand and as a result my life as a database developer is hell on earth.. Yesterday we again started to discuss, this time where to log, they believe database is slow and prefer logging to filesystem, after some hours finally I could convince them for some operational and reporting needs to use the database and will do this in an asyncronous way whiich they won't get slow. After all I believe the reason for a database is data, this is the place where data lives, and with the correct desing and implementation logging to database would perform better.
I love Oracle features, and know that we paid a lot for this software, so today I started investigating this promised solution. And quickly I found AQ and JMS topics in the documentation :)
After this introduction here is my problem; my company use BEA Weblogic as application server and the java guys want AQ to automatically (but of course with some delay) take their JMS log requests into database tables. Does any one have similar application experience, or any kind of integration experience with Weblogic JMS and Oracle AQ?
Any comments, references, documentation, sample code, url will be most welcomed :)
Thank you very much!

I wouldn't go as far to say Oracle AQ is out-dated today. However, it is indeed a proprietary technology that did not found much main-stream adoption in the earlier years after its introduction. The advent of JMS made it somewhat more useful (or should I say intriguing, because more people are trying to tie it together with other J2EE technologies), but the Oracle's JMS wrapper classes in aqapi.jar were not feature complete for a long while, so using it outside Oracle's application server was painful, if not impossible. I do agree that the info at the dev2dev's JMS newsgroup or in this forum is highly fragmented, as neither Oracle nor BEA provides an official solution to integrate AQ with WebLogic, so people like us have to learn the technology through experimentation and in a piecemeal fashion.
3 years ago I was literally "playing around" - we had a polling mechanism set up to use triggers to write Oracle data changes into an event table, and had a Java-based daemon to scan that table and publish events as JMS messages to the WebLogic JMS server. This continues to work reliably till today, but I was looking for a solution that has few parts - I wanted to hook up my WebLogic MDB directly to AQ as a foreign JMS provider. Although I was able to get it to work (including XA), there were a few hoops I had to jump through, such as decompiling the Oracle AQjms classes to make them bind to the WebLogic JNDI tree.
One year after that Diptanshu Parui took what I did a giant step further - he extended the Oracle AQjms classes to allow them to be bound to the WebLogic JNDI tree naturally, and he figured out how to use WebLogic JMS messging bridge to re-send single-threaded AQ JMS messages to clustered JMS queues, which allow concurrent message assumption by multiple instances of MDB's. My impression is that he is using that setup in a production environment.
I am sure you are aware of it but I would like to make it clear - in order to use AQ as a foreign JMS provider to WebLogic-hosted MDB's, you don't need to update your database to Oracle 10g - Oracle 8i is good enough (although I recommend at least 9i Release 2). It is not the database engine, but rather the aqapi.jar JMS wrapper on top of AQ that matters. I do recommend that you use aqapi.jar from Oracle Application Server 10.0.3 or up for better XA support, among other things. Again, you don't have to replace WebLogic with Oracle AS - you only need a single jar file from it and put it in your WebLogic's classpath. However, I don't know what this means from a licensing point of view if you ever go to production - do you have to pay the full price of OracleAS or OC4J just to use the aqapi.jar?
In the coming days I will test the latest aqapi.jar to see how much progress Oracle has made in terms of making their J2EE products more spec-compliant :-).
Hope the above gives you a different perspective.

Is OS 10.3.9 (and PowerPC Macs) being phased out?

Does anyone know if OS 10.3.9 is being phased out by most publishers (it seems like the majority of applications for OS X will only run on 10.4.x!)? also, anyone know if OS 10.5 will run fast enough (and/or compatible) with PowerPC Macs? my assumption is that OS 10.5 will end the lives of all PowerPC Macs, but I would be surprised if it even ran on any older Mac (because 10.4 doesn't seem to run too well as it stands right now!) thanks for your insight and help!
(PS) anyone know if it is even worth my time to repair my iBook G4, or just get a new Mac Mini? my warranty expired on 5/4/07, and I just wonder if this laptop is even worth getting repaired anymore! Thanks

Well, the iBook is a "consumer" laptop, meaning it wasn't the fastest Mac when it was new. The iLife apps, and many new apps are written to take advantage of faster Macs. My 1.6 GHz G5 tower is much faster than any G4 I've ever used, and the new Intel Macs seem even snappier. You'd definitely notice a speed boost if you got a new MacBook, and you could expec t 10.5 to run just fine. As the other post mentioned, we shouldn't speculate about 10.5 on G4's (I would expect a slowdown). As for replacing your iBook, if you're unhappy with the performance and can afford a new Mac, it's worth considering. 10.4 does seem a bit snappier to me, provided you have enough memory. 768 is quite a bit, but many folks suggest 1GB.

I no longer have access to system folders that allow me to remove old or incorrect PAGES templates. Need to find out how to do that. The only way I can do it now is to blank the template and replace the bad template with a blank.

I no longer have access to system folders that allow me to remove old or incorrect PAGES templates. Need to find out how to do that. The only way I can do it now is to blank the template and replace the unwanted template with a blank. It was previously possible to go to MY TEMPLATES and remove the unwanted templates. I don't if this issue is before or since installation of 10.8 (a nightmare in my case, which led to significant failure issues). And because I haven't tried to remove templates since finally managing to install 10.8 (now at 10.8.4), I don't know if this is typical of the newer OS or a problem. I've been a Mac user for more than 25 years, but I think I'm nearing the end of the road. By the way, I've never needed to do this before because the manuals always offered an answer... they don't seem to do that anymore. In any case, I don't know how this works... I'd prefer an email reply if that's possible. But that would probably be too easy, and I don't know how to get a reply.

Thanks, I appreciate the help. I think this is one of the problems Apple is creating by changing the OS so often. I had fomer colleagues at [a major aerospace contractor] who told me that so many original files were ultimately lost because of the deadly change in the "Save As" operation that they are now afraid of every OS update. Apple has badly damaged their support base with that very prominent company (they won't update now until they've fully examined and understand changes in the pre-conditioned nature of OS computer functions), and they are a whole lot less enthaled with Mac-related equipment/software. Can't blame them, I too used orginal files that way (as easy-to-use templates), and lost some important files before I realized what was happening (to late to revert). Companies should not have to retrain employees each time an OS gets an update, it's can be very expensive several different ways. They learned a painful lesson with that one. And because I'm now retired and don't use multiple devices, I need iCloud like I need a hole in the head... but I'm told there's no way to keep Apple out of my computer. Fortunately, because of major problems when initially installing Mountain Lion, one hold-over of the hardware/software damage I experienced was that iCloud can no longer access my computer even though everything else is working fine again. That was the only "good luck" I had as a result of that expensive nightmare.

Can i take out the motherboard and CPU and replace it with a newer one?

I was wondering if i could take out the CPU and Motherboard of an early 2011 13" macbook pro with a 2.3GHz dual core i5, and replace it with a 2012 2.9GHz 13" dual core i7? I don't care about the costs but i just want to know if it's possible? I've upgraded my computer to the max so far, but i need some more processing power and i think the new ivy bridge processors will do me some good. Thanks for any replies

NOPE.
I'm about 99.9% sure it won't fit.
Plus the rest of the stuff won't plug or won't be compatible.

TS1559 Wi-Fi on my iphone4s is grayed out and I think this happened after the update 7.0.4. I went to apple store and they turned me down that there is no support in the 2nd year. Extremely disappointed and no way except to pay and get replacement. Pls ad

Wi-Fi on my iphone4s is grayed out and I think this happened after the update 7.0.4. I tried all possible solutions through apple online support and then went to apple store as a last resort and they turned me down that there is no support in the 2nd year. Only option is to pay 160 pounds and get replacement. When I argued further, they said that if I had bought the iphone directly with them, they would replace me without any cost. This is even more frustrating.
THIS IS TOTALLY UNFAIR as its not my fault. If the release of faulty 7.0.4 software is timed in my 2nd year of contract and since I didnt buy the iphone directly from Apple, how is it fair to ask me to pay for replacement. Its not my fault after all.

Because you are outside the one year hard ware warrenty, Apple covers for the first year on their dime, if you had a two year contract why not make sure you have a two year insurance on your phone?
Either way as I can see/assume you are from europe you can look at your consumer laws to see if you qualify for anything there, beyond that it isn't the software that broke the device, it's a hardware failure because thousands upon thousands are happy and content with iOS 7.0.4
