Asset Manager sample - Custom Query Interface

Greetings Ladies & Gentlemen -
I've pretty much reproduced a custom query page in my application
(copied from the Asset Manager sample application) and it seems to
perform as expected - well almost !
When I arrive at the page I get an error message where the
report would display that reads -
failed to parse SQL query : ORA - 00936 : missing expression.
It goes away when I press the Go button, and it reappears when I press
the Reset button.
I've set the default for the shuttle and I've created all the same processes for the page.
Any ideas where this page needs to be corrected ?
Thanks for your valuable time in advance.
Brian

Any suggestions?

How do you create multiple execution windows for a custom opterator interface

I am starting to create a custom operator interface for TestStand 3.5 using Labview 8.0. This is my first exposure to custom operator interfaces (and ActiveX). The example operator interfaces have only one execution window that changes based on the executions combo box. My sequence is going to be run with the parallel sequence model (2 test sockets). So I want my custom operator interface to have 2 execution windows, one for each test socket. How can I do this? I created a second execution window but it just mirrors the first execution window.

Hi, All:
With the similar approach, I create a multiple window user interface with CVI. Although it can run, the Execution view doesn't display
anything while execution. In my user interface, there is an applicaiton manager resident in Parent form, and every child forms has
itsown Exection view and Manager.
Referred to the C# sample, in the function rivate void DisplayExecution(Execution execution)
   if (executionForm == null) // execution is not in a form, make a new form
    executionForm = new ExecutionForm(this, this.axApplicationMgr, execution);
    this.mChildFormsKeyedByViewMgr.Add(executionForm.GetViewMgr().GetOcx(), executionForm);
    SetNewChildFormLocation(executionForm);
I guess the execution form "hook" the exectuion view manager via Add(), so the exectuion view can be updated properly.
And according to reference manual of teststand, it mentions that "The application sets the ExecutionViewMgr.UserData property to
attach a handle, reference, or pointer that represents the window." But when I try to utilize this method, I got 2 problems:
1. How to get a window handle of a CVI panel? As execution view are resident in child panels, so I may need the window handle of
individual child panels.
2. Even the window hanlde is gotten, how can I convert it to a VARIANT Type? According to the function panle of
TSUI_ExecutionViewMgrSetUserData (, NULL, ), the last parameter is a "VARIANT".
Any comments or instructions for my assumption?
Thank you for your help.

Bridge/Prelude/Premiere/Encore, Arrrgh! Workflow/Asset Managment overload! Help.

I've been viewing a tutorial series in addition to some random one's on the web, mostly covering functionality, but what isn't clear to me (yet) has to do with asset management and workflow. I know enough to understand that these two areas are the most important aspects of the whole process; without organized asset management and an orderly, systematized, hierarchical approach to accomplishing tasks the creative side of things will suffer dramatically at the worst time.
Regarding asset management, I have three separate drives for for audio, video, and stills. All the files reside in their original locations except for video files that I originally had stored on my stills drive. These video files were copied to my video drive into the Adobe Folder> Premiere Projects Folder> Project Name Folder. In addition, I have a folder on the video drive called "Raw Footage" that I'm using for random footage unrelated to any project; sort of a personal stock footage resource.
As a practice project for the tutorial series I'm using assets from a 45 day Rail Pass tour I took a few years ago. Assets include SDDV. m2ts, and mov, files with different sample rates, in addition to jpg and psd files.
Where would the following programs come into play and at what point in the workflow does the transition from one to the other begin and/or overlap?
Bridge
Prelude
Premiere
Encore
Where does Bridge come into play and when?
There are folders with m2ts files on my stills drive that I've copied and pasted to my video drive. Should I have used Prelude to ingest and "Transfer Clips To Destination" ("destination" being my video drive)? Should I have transcoded to a less resource hungry format and, if so, does Prelude create an EDL that can be used to conform the final edit replacing the low rex clips files the the original higher rez files?
I know I have to capture SDDV as DV (not HDV) with Premiere but what else do I need to know about such capture? As far as actual editing goes the tutorials are covering a lot of that.
Eventually I'll use Encore to author a proper DVD that is compatible with every DVD or Blu-ray player. Right?
I guess the question could be, "What is yout multi asset workflow?"
I feel like such a noob.
Thanks.

Michael,
I thought that might be the case. Sigh!
Well, as far as I can tell, if I were you, I would offer it with an alI I-Frame option first. That would probably be the easiest to implement cleanly. Those who can shoot that way would probably start shooting that way. Me included.
Then, take the AVCHD from a few of the most popular cameras, Canon, Nikon and of course, the Panasonic DMC-GH3 (my camera) and whatever video cameras are popular right now. Back up to the beginning of the long GOP and finish at the end of the long GOP. There is no need to get too specific with frames for subclips. After all, anyone who does not leave handles on their subclips while ingesting gets what they deserve anyway. In fact, there should be an option to always add one second of handles to every subclip. Personally I would leave that on as a default.
As for me, I recently posted a few videos using different codecs for people to download to test them. The links can be found in this forum post along with a short discussion: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1239519?tstart=0
I usually use 50Mb/s 60p using the MOV format, but if I was to shoot anything serious, I would probably shoot 72Mb/s 24p. Keep in mind, that if Adobe made it possible to ingest subclips without transcoding,I would change what I shot to all I-Frame for almost everything, either at 30p or 24p. And if you did it for my 60fps MOV files, I would be ecstatic.
I don't shoot AVCHD but I suppose that so many people do that the moment you gave the feature to all I-Frame shooters, there would be a huge clamor for AVCHD.
In my opinion, this could be a major game changer and everyone who could would start using Prelude without a second thought. Like photographers are flocking to Lightroom 5, this would be the videographers Lightroom. Reelroom? Naw. Prelude is a good enough name.

Bridge for data asset management?

I've been looking for a while for a 'simple' data asset management application.
What it should be able to do or have is:
1. a simple interface, manageable by anyone.
2. both mac and windows compatible
3. drag and drop facilitated for both images AND their description into inDesign.
Why?: we work for a large mall group, that produces some 20 large folders a year. No need to say we have built up an image database of thousands of items, most of which are reused regularly. Locating them for use in a new folder is not such a problem in itself; but reusing the text is. Each time, our client provides more or less the 'same' texts and prices (they retype them), which means that all texts, whether they have been published 10 times before or not, always have to be reread, reviewed by a copywriter, and on top of that, retranslated (in Belgium, you always need editions in Dutch and French). This is a silly and costly situation.
I love to use Expression Media for comparing pictures, and it's drag and drop capable - for picutres - not for text. Bridge doen't seem to do the job either, and it's not an actual database.
So is there a simple way or application (affordable) to get over this problem, without the need of some complicated Unix-based, nerd-interfaced server?

Did you tried to explore Canto Cumulus ?
They have two editions, the 'single user' (very affordable) and a more complex build to order. When you have many users on different locations or use over a network it might be to complex for the single user version I'm afraid ;-(

CS4 Asset Management

Hi,
I’m having some difficulties implementing asset management in our CS4 InCopy and InDesign plugins.
I seem to have the basics right but I’m lacking some refinements.
I’ve created implementations of IAMSystemProvider, IAMServiceProvider and IAMServices for Initialize, CheckIn, CheckOut and CancelCheckOut.
Our stories and documents are stored in database, so the locked and editable status need to reflect the state of the document in the database.
When the user opens a story from database it is copied to a local store and edited in InCopy from there.
For the most part this works, the story is marked as Editing, and the user can make changes and save it back to the database.
The Links panel shows the correct file path, but there are inconsistencies.
The status is marked as Contained. I’m really not sure what this means; contained in what?
Story Status is marked as “Text Modified”, but if I close the story and check the text model, the dirty flag is not set, as I would expect and the user isn’t prompted to save. So the behaviour is correct, and I’m not really sure where the Links panel is getting this Text Modified status from if not the ITextModel.
The Managed Status is probably the worst, it shows “is available for anyone to edit”, and yet the bar across the top of the story shows Editing and most definitiely not “Available”.
How am I supposed to keep this in sync. Should the IAMService code explicitly update the Link status or does the link control panel query the IManagedStatus in some way?
The latter is what I was expecting and I’ve tried attaching an instance of an IManagedStatus implementation to the IManagableAsset during the call to the Initialize IAMService and it’s doesn’t seem to be called at all.
Is this documented somewhere, the CS3/CS4 Porting guide don't really go into this much detail, and the CS4 Programming guide doesn’t cover asset management, that I've found in any case?
Most serious of these problems is that if I open and close three stories then InCopy crashes with no call stack!
I’m hopefully guessing that the crash is associated with the asset management being out of sync, and in any case I would like to fix that up first.
Best Regards and many thanks for any assistance that you can offer.

See http://forums.adobe.com/thread/852571?tstart=30 for an idea of sizes available.
Here is an example of getting a thumbnail and saving it on the desktop....
#target bridge
var thumb = app.document.selections[0];
var sourceBitmap = undefined;
app.synchronousMode = true;
sourceBitmap = thumb.core.thumbnail.thumbnail; //smallest
//sourceBitmap = thumb.core.preview.preview; //next size
app.synchronousMode = false;
if( !sourceBitmap || sourceBitmap.width == undefined || sourceBitmap.width == 0 ){
alert("Unable to get bitmap");
}else{
var Name = decodeURI(thumb.spec.name).replace(/\.[^\.]+$/, '');
var exportFile = new File( Folder.desktop + "/" + Name + "-thumb.jpg" );
sourceBitmap.exportTo( exportFile, 100);
There are many examples of extracting metadata and it might be best to look at some of them, also download the sdk where you will find all the documentation and examples.

If it looks a bit complex you could use ExifTool http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/ as an alternative.

Manage hardware in asset management

hi all
i'm new at zenworks, so we try to add hardware costs, lifetime, date of order but there is no hardware tab in asset management...
is there any possibility for addig hardware the asset management? or is the only way to add it as software and add some custom fields in it?
is there any database structure, i only found the inventory data for ZCM 10 and asset database structure for 7.5, but not 10.
thanks for reply

Software asset management review

I'm not really sure what forum this could belong in, but since it kind of covers several categories including Windows Server I'll start here:
Yes, I have Googled and found mixed responses - is the Microsoft Software Asset Management Review e-mail I received legit or not? If in general they can be legitimate, but some may be scams, how can I tell which I received?
The one I received looks pretty good, and they provided a lot of very accurate info about my existing volume licenses. Calling MS for input yielded a lot of bouncing around and hold time and a vague, not very reassuring answer
Thanks inadvance
Manning

Hi,
It from your description it’s hardly to judge the mail come from MSFT, the guru hack event can hijack your DNS related solution, some social engineering hack can get your
license from your software vendor, I suggest you use the online support for the future confirm.
The related information:

Asset Manager Demo Question

When running the application it displays the words "Asset Manager" on each page in the upper left corner.
How do you edit this title?
Looked in obvious places like Shared Components: User Interface Defaults, Themes etc. but can't see the text.
I've no idea why such an important piece of text would be so difficult to find. Or maybe it's just me! :-(
Thanks!

Try checking page 0 of the application, it is probably there, so that it will carry over to ALL pages....
Thank you,

Asset management for Plug-ins

After Effects performs certain kinds of asset management for a project. When you import an image or footage, the project keeps a file-reference to it, sometimes relative. You can "Collect Files..." and gather them all to one place. Handy!
Is there any way for a plug-in to get in on that action?
For my effect plugin "omino_python", which runs a python script to draw on a layer, I refer to external scripts.
It seems the best way to do this, for now, is use a custom parameter, or maybe options dialog, to select a file, and save the file path as parameter (or options) data.
Is there a way to find the project's path? Then the file path could at least be relative. It seems best to NOT save the whole script as parameter data; I want the user to own their own files for revision control and what not.
What I'd love is a PF_Param_FILE_ASSET type, and let AE manage it. Be part of the "Collect Files..." club. Is there anything sort-of close?

for starters, lookup PF_Cmd_GET_EXTERNAL_DEPENDENCIES along with PF_OutFlag_I_HAVE_EXTERNAL_DEPENDENCIES.
i don't know if that flag will cause AE to gather the said files when doing a "collect", bet hey, that's the closest thing i know of to what you're looking for.
if that doesn't help, i would have stored both the path and the script in a custom param (or sequence data).
then if the file pointed to by the path exists, then you can discard the internally kept copy of the script. if it doesn't exist you can ask the user where to save it, and create a file the user can edit externally.

Fetch current Quarter and pass it to custom query

Hi
I need to pass the current date and find the quarter in which the date falls.
The start and end date of the quarter need to be passed as a query parameter, in a custom query in UI designer.
My query is as follows
As shown in above screenshot,I have close_dt_upd(datatype Date).This field should have end date of the quarter as a condition.
Similarly I will have a field start_date which should have Start date of the quarter as condition.
I got the following table in 1402 documentation.
But the above transformation rule is not visible in the query.
Can anyone tell which namespace to use?
How can I retrieve the current quarter start and end dates, and then pass them to the above query?
Thanks,
Vijaya Chavan

Hi,
the most easiest and straight forward approach is
- Ckick the "Binding" tab at the bottom of the Visual Editor
- In the Bindings section click teh green plus icon and choose Generic Bindings | Attribute Value
- point the iterator selection to the iterator used by the table
- choose the column's attribute name from the list of attributes
- Create a method on the ApplicatioNModule IMPL class (should take single argument)
- expose it as a client interfaces so it shows in the Data Controls panel
- In the "Binding" tab, create a method binding for this exposed method
- point the method binding argument to #{bindings.column-attribute-name.inptValue}
So whenever you need to pass the value on to the AM, you just call the method binding
OperationBinding oper = (OperationBinding) bindings.get("name of method");
oper.execute();

[BPM Governance] Asset management by OER

Hi Experts,
IHAC that asked for a BPM asset management model. Once identified the BPM assets, they should be governed. Firstly, I need an approach more functional (without mention of technology/products).
So, Does anybody know where I could find some documentation that explain about Asset Lifecycle with its phases and processes?
After that, the use of OER will be considered.
Any help, it would be very appreciated.

The Predictive Maintenance Model in gallery is a good starting point.
Whether it's good enough for your purposes depends on the quality of data: noisiness, how many samples of pass/fail are there to train the model, is there additional preprocessing or data normalization required.
Also, it depends on how high accuracy is required in your use case: for very high accuracy you may have to try different kinds of algorithms and use Sweep Parameters module to optimize their parameters.
Hope this helps,
Roope

Configure custom query group in navigation menu

How do we configure custom query groups? Say for example: I have created a custom query group and added my custom query definitions to it. How do I configure this so that when I click on Contract Management Tab on the workbench, my custom query group is invoked?
I need to configure custom query group in navigation menu. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Bindu,
As per my understanding, it is standard and query group cannot be added in the navigation but you can add your quries under Agreement and Claus Library.
Kindly refer the blog for the same: http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-55733
Let me know if you need any other information.

Mass Video Asset Management in Lightroom 4 - Watch as I Test (Flail and Fumble)

The Project is to: catalog, keyword, manage, rate, and organize over 3400 video clips (AVCHD clips re-wrapped as MOV files) shot in 30 days in Costa Rica. The shoot was purely run and gun -total guerrilla style. As we were unable to do much transfer and review in the field, I came home with a huge project to complete before editing videos. I've limited the choices of software for asset management & organization down to Lightroom 4 or CatDV. Ethically, I feel obligated to say that I"m pulling for Adobe since I use the entire suite, and there are some nice fringe benefits keeping everything "in house,"
First Step: All video files are AVCHD files which are re-wrapped (by ClipWrap) into MOV files. This step is crucial, since AVCHD does not include/store metadata in the video file itself.
Second Step: Files are stored on the MAC-OS level into folders corresponding to the dates the shots were taken
Third Step: Get the 3400+ files organized, weeded, and prepped for editing
@#$!)~*(*&%^ <-- That's what a record scratch looks like in the digital age
I started examining software solutions and gave each a couple of good tries to narrow the choices down to TWO packages of software:
OnLocation - Couldn't feel it and it looks like it's meant to work for a different flow. No.
Cosmos - Couldn't really do much of anything with metadata. No.
Bridge - Almost there, but pretty limited and not dual screen friendly at all. No.
CatDV - Now there you go...almost. Everything is in a catalog meaning you have to go between this software and Premiere. Definite maybe.
Lightroom 4 - Comes with heaps of background in organizing stills, how will it work for massive amounts of video? Definite maybe.
CatDV and Lightroom 4 both imported everything just fine.
I'll post more as I get into it. Soon, if anyone cares to read more.

Lightroom 4 has completed the task of importing 3440 video clips. CatDV (fully functional 30 day trial) crashed again on the large import. I'm going to try importing 10 folders at a time in CatDV.
As I start to play in Lightroom4 with asset mgmt:
PROs
Slick relatively tweakable user interface
Keyword buttons are great (wish we could have more on the surface)
Nice "twirl-down" flow that Adobe uses in the product line -I love this
CONs
Lightroom4 video previews are horrifically sluggish at best, and at this point is unusable for a large collection
The scrub over (video thumbnail) preview is a huge resource hog and would benefit from a disable option
Second Monitor pane has some issues/incongruencies with the main monitor pane:
Grid view will not allow multiple files to be graded/keyworded/etc simultaneously
Loupe view will not play video files and treats the video file preview like a photo
This is all for now. More on CatDV when I get it going.

ZENworks Asset Management 7.5 - Eval Question

We've been trialing several products and on the ZENworks Asset Managment
evaluation we ran into a few problems.
We run a mostly Mac shop. There are a handful of Windows machines and
plenty of Linux (Redhat & Debian) servers to go around.
I've gotten it all installed and installed the client on one of the OS X 10.5
machines. I see the zamclient running but I'm not even seeing the client
attempt to connect via the Collection Servers -> View Detailed Status window.
In the About ZENworks Asset Management withing the manager it has
license information listed as below.
Workstations 1
UNIX/Linux Workstations 0
Asset Inventory Evaluation
Asset Management Evaluation
UNIX/Linux Evaluation
Does that mean it will only find one workstation in evaluation mode and
that's why my other workstation with the zamclient installed won't show
up?
Thanks in advance,
-Chris

Next run a workstation query with no criteria to see if it shows. If it doesn't I would validate if you have the correct port settings on the client and that it is communicaiton to the collection server. The collection server will aslo have a log (something like collsvrcore and you should see the machine name in there as it talks to the client. If you're in there then determine if you have rights between the DB and collection server correct or that the port settings are correct.
I know this better actually doing than writing it here so others might provide you a more logical approach to troubleshoot. I will check in again later to see how you progressed.
Thanks, Bryant
I do appreciate your response, I'm sure all of that information will come in
handy when I do get a good evaluation license from them that allows Linux
and UNIX support.
I finally reached some folks at Novell and got a little bit of pre-sales support.
From the sound of what they're telling me the evaluation license does not
turn on the linux/unix support and so I couldn't complete my evaluation
with it due to that. I've been working with them to get a more functional
evaluation.
