[b]MiniSap and the ABAP OBJECTS book [/b]

Hello,
I have purchased the book "ABAP Objects" by Keller and Kruger.  I attempted to install Minisap and ran into a lot of problems. I suspect that I need the most recent version of this product that runs on Windows XP. Can anyone direct me to place where I may download Minisap without having to pay for it again!  I really have to say that it shouldn't be this difficult to install a product that is used for training and education. So far I've spent more time trying to install than learning ABAP.

Most of the issues with trying to install this are either answered by the html documents on the kernel disc or by the FAQ doc at www.IT-minds.com search on ABAP and look for the resources.
One issue these documents will not solve is, if you have / had a version of SQLserver installed. As the disc only uses the MSinstaller_01 and can only use the default instance of MS SQLserver2000 desktop engine (MSDE2000).

  • What are the differences between inactive and active ABAP objects?

    Can anybody tell me what are the differences between inactive and active ABAP objects?
    In my opinion,  an active object is compiled and system wide available, that means the system do not have to compile the program again before run or use the object. While An inactive object is not system wide available and every time you run an inactive object, firstly the abap runtime will have to  generate a tempory runtime object and this inactive object can not seen by others.
    Am I right? Can anybody kindly tell me other differences?

    Hi,
    "When it is inactive, it is like it would not exist at all:" no - it's like it only exists to you
    "If we just saved that one means it is stored in application server not in database": no - the inactive version is also stored in the database. You can log off and log on and it will still be there, in its inactive status.
    "Only active objects can be executed.": no - inactive objects can be executed by you
    When you create or modify a program, it is inactive until you activate it.
    With a change, there are two versions of the program stored in the database - the active version (as it was before you made your change), and the inactive version. If you attempt to run the program, you'll run the inactive version - the one with your changes. Everyone else on the system will run the active version.
    In this way, you can make changes without affecting anyone else.
    Once you activate your program, then the inactive version becomes the active version.
    With a create, there is no active version, until you hit the activate button. This means ONLY you can run the program.
    An additional benefit of this model, is that if you make a change, save it, and then change your mind without activating, you can recover the active version into the editor, using version management.
    A downside is that sometimes you have to activate your change before you can test it, if it interacts with other, active, programs.

  • Unable to extend License of MiniSAP 4.6D ABAP Objects by Kruger & keller

    Hello people

    First up you need MBS up and running. So start the database and MBS system.
    Now you have a choice of methods to do this, from the OS or within SAP.
    Within SAP is easier; logon to SAP with user ID SAP* (password 'pass') goto transaction SLICENSE.
    From the OS; Start a new DOS window (run -> cmd), change to the MBS directory (c:\local\..>CD c:\mbs), execute the environment variables (c:\mbs>dbenv.cmd), now run the saplicense program (c:\mbs>SAPlicense.exe -get).
    When you get the new license use the appropiate method and flags.

  • Transport request no for the abap object

    Hi experts,
                      I want to know the transport request numbers for the abap objects. Can anybody tell me the procedure of how to know the transport request number?
    My approach : I want the transport request number for the function module.Open the functional module. go to Object Directory Entry and click on Lock Overview.
    it is displaying the 1.Request   2.User   3.Task/request   4.Object.      What is the main difference between Request and Task/request.
    For some programs it is not displaying the request number. Instead it is displaying the request locks.
    Thanks and regards.
    Murali Krishna T

    Hi tajuddin,
                         Thanks for your prompt reply. Problem solved.
    Also please make me clear ---  In object directory entry ---> lock overview, I want to know the difference between the Request and Task/request.

  • Problem with Jdeveloper and the Web Object Manager

    I am trying to register a servlet through the web object manager.
    As soon as click the web object manager menu pick I get the following
    error: Could not load servlet information from web server.
    On other peoples machines here it works fine and they can register
    servlets. What am I missing!

    hmmmm, wondering if I understood you correctly:
    first try the file association - right click on one of the movie files (you should tell as well with extension) then 'open with' menu then go to 'choose program' and then choose one of them and coach the box "always use the selected program to open this kind of file" in your example 'window media player'.
    the other point I understood is that in download directly into your browser, well there is a settin for this in the option, don't know where exactly, but you can avoid this by right clicking on the movie/file link and choose 'save target as ...' this forces it to download it on your disk and then you can open it.
    hope this kinda helps
    Cheers

  • TS1702 No longer able to sign into a free app after iOS 7 and the app (password books) is no longer available

    I am unable to sign-in to the Password Books App after installing IOS 7 and the app is no longer in iTunes , published by Razor Apps, LLC, have all my passwords in this app.

    WORKAROUND: In iTunes, select the podcast files and hit CMD-I (show info). Set the genre to something other than "Podcast", and in the Options tab, set the Media Type to Music. You can do this to the files that are on your iPhone. If you do this to the files on your computer, they will no longer show up as Podcasts - they'll be mixed in with music files in your library. You can then put these podcasts into playlists on the iPhone, and they'll show up on the phone once it's disconnected. You might need to fool around with this a bit - try it more than once, etc. - I had some podcasts not show up on the iPhone until after a SECOND connect-and-disconnect operation with the computer. Others here might do some experimenting and figure out a smoother set of instructions that will always work - but this is a starting point.
    Note that I ALWAYS "manage music and video files manually" - I NEVER "sync" music and video. Your mileage may vary.
    Apple - please listen: The handling of podcasts in iOS 7 is not a feature, it's a bug. As you can tell from the comments here, MANY people need to manage podcasts as if they were music files (and sometimes, THEY ARE!!!!). The arbitrary decision to treat podcasts differently is WRONG - an audio file is an audio file. I don't need to buy one TV to watch sports and one TV to watch news - because video is video. Get it? If you want to provide a Podcasts app, that's fine, and anyone who wants to use it can do so. But don't RUIN the previous, excellent functionality that we had before, when it's completely unnecessary and a colossal pain (not to mention insult) to your customers. And in some cases, it's a serious driving safety issue.
    I'll be watching this space to see if others can refine the basic workaround that I've found.
    UPDATE: It appears that changing the genre is unnecessary, only the "Media Type". It's probably best to do this only to the copies on the iPhone, so the files in your computer's library are not altered.

  • HT1880 Is there a calibration tool foor iPhoto and the printing of books (dark results)

    Hi, Not satisfied with the result of a very expensive and therefore unusable iPhoto Book, due to the dark prints of the images, I am looking for a calibration tool. Does anyone know of its existence? Or is it just aquestion of lowering the color density of your photo's before, with iPhoto? And, if yes, at what rate do they have to adjusted?
    Thank you for an answer, sicerely, Jos

    Don't know if you can set the camera to use a different RGB profile for future photos. 
    To convert existing files to sRGB you can download and use this Automator workflow application, Convert to JPG anbd Embed sRGB profile, on the original files.  However, you would have to export the orignals out of iPhoto, run the app on them and reimport them.  You can download the app from  Toad's Cellar. 
    For future photos you can upload them to a folder on the Desktop and run the app on them there before importing.
    Contact Apple, tell them about the problem and they probably will refund the purchase price.  If you reorder then you're on your own from then on.  Be sure to create a PDF of the book as described in this Apple document, iPhoto '11: Preview a book, card, or calendar before you order or print it, before you order it and save the pdf for comparison to the printed version after you receive it. 

  • Can you rename the Personal Address Book and the Collected Address Book?

    I would like to rename my Personal Address Book and my Collected Address Book for aesthetic reasons - is it possible and how do you do it?

    You can rename them but it is not recommended. What purpose is served by renaming the default books? You can create new books and name them anything you like.

  • 0FIA_DS13 and the cumulative objects

    Hello
    I hope to use the ODS (0FIA_DS13), but I don't understand how the cumulative objects are loaded... I use the datatsource 0FI_AA_12 or 0FI_AA_11, but Idon't find these objects
    for example
       ***. Intrst at Start of Fis. Year
       Accumulated ordinary depreciation
       Cumulative reserves transfer
       Cumulative revaluation of ordinary depreciation
    Have you got an idea?
    Thanks you

    Hi,
    Help says :
    <i>The object is supplied with data from both ODS object 0FIA_DS11 and InfoSource 0FI_AA_12. This ensures that, when inventory values are posted to the ODS object, they are calculated precisely by period from the transactions and annual values, while the depreciation values are extracted directly from the source system.</i>

  • .ZIP files and the ZipFile object

    Dove into java.util.zip this weekend and was most unhappy with the docs. Fortunately, searching these forums I was able to make some progress, but am still confused about the ZipFile class.
    I was able to open a FileInputStream, hand it to a ZipInputStream and read a .ZIP file. I was not able to read the .ZIP opening it as a ZipFile (I got the ZipEntries and the header info, but couldn't unzip the data).
    I was able to write a .ZIP with the reverse but was concerned that the ZipFile isn't even documented as supporting file writing. Is the ZipFile a useful thing in some way I haven't discovered, or should I just forget about it?

    this is a simple test for copying a zip file
    java ZipDemo c:\myZip.zip d:\testdir
    import java.util.zip.*;
    import java.io.*;
    import java.util.*;
    class ZipDemo
         public static void main(String [] arg) throws Exception
              ZipFile src = new ZipFile(arg[0]);
              File tgt = new File(arg[1]);     
              if(!tgt.isDirectory())
                   System.out.println(tgt+" is not found, or not a directory");
              for(Enumeration e = src.entries(); e.hasMoreElements(); )
                   ZipEntry ze = (ZipEntry) e.nextElement();
                   File target = new File(tgt, ze.getName());
                   try {
                        target.getParentFile().mkdirs();
                   }catch(NullPointerException npe){} // ignore case where file has no parent
                   if(!ze.isDirectory())
                        copy(src.getInputStream(ze), target);
         static byte [] buffer = new byte [16384];
         public static void copy(InputStream in, File target) throws IOException
              FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(target);
              int bytesRead;
              while((bytesRead=in.read(buffer))>0)
                   out.write(buffer,0,bytesRead);
              out.close();
              in.close();

  • Custom components and the navigator object

    Hi all,
    I'm starting on a mobile project which is a ViewNavigator based application. I've created a custom component which contains a button. I'd like the button to be able to use the pushView method however as it's a custom component, it doesn't appear to recognise the navigator object. If anyone has any advice/tips on how I might go about this, it'd be greatly appreciated!

    The button sits in a custom component - actually in a datarenderer. Code looks like:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <s:DataRenderer xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
                                            xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark">
      <fx:Script>
                        <![CDATA[
                                  import mx.utils.ObjectUtil;
                                  protected function button1_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
                        ]]>
      </fx:Script>
      <fx:Declarations>
      </fx:Declarations>
              <s:Button label="{data.firstName}" click="button1_clickHandler(event)" width="150" height="150" />
    </s:DataRenderer>
    which is being called from a View. There's no error, I'm simply unable to/unsure how to access the navigator object so I can push a new view onto the stack from within that component.
    Cheers!
