Basic package question

After working thru a package problem with some forum members(thanx to those who contributed), it seems to me that the following things about creating/using packages are true:
If my package is pack, I need to install the classes in that package to a directory pack. The CLASSPATH should point to the parent directory of pack. Then, in code that uses packages, I import pack.* to get access to the classes.
The source code for classes in pack cannot be on the classpath anywhere, at least in all the testing I did to get my code to compile. Can anyone confirm or refute this? It seems to be a really inconvenient behavior on the part of the java compiler.
In my general source tree I have a directory units. I created a vo_unit package in that directory and installed all class files to units/vo_unit. I then wrote a test program in units, but it wouldnt work because I had my package class source in the units directory. I dont think that this source model is bad, but unless someone can tell me otherwise it seems that packages cannot be developed in the same source directories where they are used, as trying to compile confuses java when it sees someclass.java, when trying to use someclass in the test code...

The source code for classes in pack cannot be on the
classpath anywhere, at least in all the testing I did
to get my code to compile. Can anyone confirm or
refute this? It seems to be a really inconvenient
behavior on the part of the java compiler.
If you use import pack.* and the source code is in a directory that is in the classpath, the javac compiler will likely error. If you import the specific classes from pack, it likely will work. I don't know of a scenario in which importing the specific class does not work.

Basic iPhoto questions:

I have some Basic iPhoto questions before I start using the program:
- does iPhoto apply any compression or change images in any way when they
are imported?
- after images are imported, can the original source folder of images be deleted off of the mac?
- can Quicktime files exported from iPhoto be viewed on a Windows computer?
- can iPhoto handle large resolution images that might be as large as 8-15mb each? does it display them quick? are there any known file size issues?
Thanks!!!!

kat.
Is there a way to use iPhoto on a network so other users can read and possibly write to an iPhoto library on a networked mac?
iPhoto is a consumer level photo organiser, not a server. It's possible to share photos but libraries are very difficult and fraught with the danger of database corruption. Some have reported success.
Is it possible to password protect or secure certain images in the library so they can not be seen by anyone?
No. The best I can suggest there is to create a second library and store it in a secure area like a protected dmg. But remember, you can only have one library open at a time.
After photos are deleted from iPhoto, are there any remaining traces or cached files anywhere other than the trash
If you delete photos from iPhoto and empty the iPhoto trash then the pics are removed from the Finder as well. They remain as findable as any other deleted file from that point, which is, very, if the searcher in knowledgeable.

Object class deployment - Basic form question

OK, I subclass calendar object from Oracle provided standard
object class. What do I need to deploy to use this form now
apart from calendar.pll and my fmx. What about the object class
from which I sub-class. Do I need to compile and deploy that
also? How will form resolve this on run time the parent object
class as I really did not copy, just sub class and we do not
deploy original class? Basic form question. Thanks.

You can set the "help" property on the field (which gives you the little "information" icon link beside the field).
You could also try adding another field of another class above or below:
<Display class='InlineAlert'/>
<Display class='ErrorMessage'/>
<Display class='HtmlPage'/>

Instant client basic package usages needed

Hi,
I have installed oats in my laptop in windows xp operating system which is using the default database 10g express edition that comes along with the installation process of oats.
Now i want to use the 11g database which is in oel5 in my desktop
Both of the system are in a same network
in order to connect,oats and 11g, the instant client basic package is needed and also the odbc supplement and i have downloaded both of the packages and extract them to the same directory in windows xp and the necessory changes have been made in system environment variable also
when performing the system DSN test process it is failed and the error is occured TNS no listener
help me pls

I recommend that you do not install Instant Client on your laptop at all.
Instead, use the Oracle client that is included in the 10g server.
It is difficult to have more than one Oracle installation on one Windows machine, because Windows is not designed as a multi-user OS.
All you have to do is change the connection string to point to the other database (the documentation of oats, whatever it is, should tell you how).
Yours,
Laurenz Albe

Help!!! How to get the recovery time of transient response of a power supply with Labview basic package without analysis option?

How to get the recovery time of transient response of a power supply with Labview basic package without analysis option? Does anyone have any idea or some similar function SUBVIs?
Recovery time of transient response is defined as the time from the beginning of the transient to the voltage point on the waveform fallen into 10percent of the overshoot. Well, the waveform is something like a pulse with a soft slope.

I recommend plotting your data on a graph on paper. Take a look at the data, and determine what is unique about the point you are looking for. Look for how you can teach your program to look for this point.
I have written several algorithms that do similar, one in fact being for a power supply, the other being for RPM. Neither algorithm used any advanced analysis tools. They are just a matter of determining, mathematically, when you achieve what you are looking for. Just sit down with your graph (I recommend multiple copies) and draw horizontal and vertical lines that determine when you get to the point you are looking for. You are probably going to have to reverse the array and start from the end, so think in those terms.
If you have trouble, emai
l me a bitmap of the graph, and what you are looking for and I will try to be of further assistance. Don't do that however; until you you have given this a few tries. Your solution should be involve a lot of logic on analog levels.
Good luck

Adding Date/Time Field + X Number of Days - Basic Calculation Question

I am assuming this is a basic calculation question. New to Adobe LiveCycle Forms.
I have a simple form containing a table. The table appears as such:
Text
Formatted as Date/Time Fields
Header 3
Monday
user wil choose the beginning date (Date/Time) this is DateTimeField1
Tuesday
this should calculate DateTimeField1 + 1
Wednesday
this should calculate DateTimeField1 + 2
Thursday
this should calculate DateTimeField1 + 3
Friday
this should calculate DateTimeField1 + 4
Saturday
this should calculate DateTimeField1 + 5
Sunday
this should calculate DateTimeField1 + 6
Calculations are performed after the date is chosen for Monday. My mind tells me the simple calculation of DateTimeField1 + 1 is not going to work (and in fact doesn't!) as it needs to change Monday to a number first. I saw on another thread the following:
Num2Date(Date2Num(Date(DateTimeField1), "DD.MM.YYYY")+7, "DD.MM.YYYY")
Thought this was going to get me close. No cigars though!
Any quick help is greatly appreciated. And since I am new to this, details about what needs to be changed would be great too!
Thanks

Here an addition for you date field.
This FormCalc script in the exit:Event will check it the selected date is on a monday.
If not it will go the days back until the last monday.
var Selection = Date2Num($.formattedValue, DateFmt(2))
var WeekDay = Num2Date(Selection, "E")
var NewDate
if (WeekDay eq 1) then
          NewDate = Selection - 6
elseif (WeekDay eq 3) then
          NewDate = Selection - 1
elseif (WeekDay eq 4) then
          NewDate = Selection - 2
elseif (WeekDay eq 5) then
          NewDate = Selection - 3
elseif (WeekDay eq 6) then
          NewDate = Selection - 4
elseif (WeekDay eq 7) then
          NewDate = Selection - 5
else
          NewDate = Selection
endif
$ = Num2Date(NewDate, "EEE DD.MM.YYYY")
Hope this helps, too.

Basic Exporting Question

My main question is a very basic exporting question, but here is a super-condensed explanation of my big-picture goal for context:
Large (~450 MB) aiff on CD --> trim w/ Quicktime --> small (~16 MB) MP3 in iTunes
I would like to take an audio file (aiff) that is approximately 450 MB and export it from Quicktime and in doing so, reduce the file size and convert it to MP3. When I simply try to export it, it doesn't ask me about what size I want, nor does it give the option of MP3 formatting.
I have figured out how to reach my goal, but it's a mess. After I make my trims in QT, I have to:
1. select "share" instead of "export".
2. It asks me what size I want and I select small.
3. The file is then exported as a Quicktime movie into Mail and the size is reduced from 450 MB to about 20 MB.
4. I then have to "right-click" on the attachment in the email that is created,
5. save the attachment,
6. discard the email,
7. import the file into iTunes, and
8. create an MP3 in iTunes to finally arrive at my goal.
This seems like a ridiculously convoluted process to change a large aiff to a small MP3 and put it in iTunes. Any suggestions?

Thanks. I guess the basic answer to my question is that it can't be done in one or two fell swoops. The problem is that it starts on a burned disc, and I need to make edits to it before it ends up in iTunes (to be eventually used in iWeb). I was hoping to avoid juggling back and forth between iTunes and QT. I either would have to send it back to QT to do the edits after -->iTunes-->mp3, or import the large file from the CD to QT, make the edits, save changes, import large file to iTunes, convert to mp3.

Very Basic Package and Import question

Thanks in advance ...
- I read/tried all tutorials and documents on the matter
- the programs are from "Java 2 from scratch" book (Steven Haines)
- I suspect the problems result from using new SDK 1.4.2 version versus SDK 1.2.1 (that the book uses)
OK, here we go :
package Stock1.PortfolioTotalsPanel;
- first line in PortfolioTotalsPanels.java file
package Stock1.StockTablePanel;
- first line in StockTablePanel.java file
package Stock1.StockTableTabPanel;
- first line in StockTableTabPanel.java file
--- then:
Import Stock1.PortfolioTotalsPanel ;
Import Stock1.StockTablePanel ;
NOW : I guess I have to compile 'PortfolioTotalsPanels' and 'StockTablePanel' on their own - which I did successfully and kept the '.class' in the same directory (folder) - Stock1
When trying to compile 'StockTableTabPanel.java' file...
StockTableTabPanel.java : cannot resolve symbol
Symbol : class StockTablePanel
Location: class Stock1.StockTableTabPanel.StockTableTabPanel
StockTablePanel stockTablePanel = new StockTablePanel();
...and the same error message for 'StockTablePanel' class.
- I noticed the last line has 'stockTablePanel' instead of 'StockTablePanel' ...not sure if it makes a difference..same with the 'portfolioTotalsPanel'
I'm out of ideas...HELP !!

package Stock1.PortfolioTotalsPanel;
- first line in PortfolioTotalsPanels.java file
package Stock1.StockTablePanel;
- first line in StockTablePanel.java file
package Stock1.StockTableTabPanel;
- first line in StockTableTabPanel.java file
--- then:
Import Stock1.PortfolioTotalsPanel ;
Import Stock1.StockTablePanel ;
NOW : I guess I have to compile
'PortfolioTotalsPanels' and 'StockTablePanel' on their
own - which I did successfully and kept the '.class'
in the same directory (folder) - Stock1Both of your source files are in a directory named Stock1, right? Change directory so that you are in the directory above Stock1:
c:\javastuff\Stock1> cd ..
c:\javastuff> javac Stock1/StockTablePanel.java Stock1/PortfoloiTotalsPanels.java
to run them, run them from this root directory:
c:\javastuff> java Stock1.StockTablePanel
assuming that that class has a main() method.

Basic JAR Question

Hello,
I hate to ask such a simple question, but I'd like to get confirmation from people who know.
It is possible to package non-EJBs into a deployed JAR containing EJBs, isn't it? I have heard that you cannot mix a non-EJB class into a JAR that contains EJBs, but my interpretation of the literature I've found about packaging EJBs seems to indicate otherwise.
Basically, it looks like you would want to (or need to in some cases) package any class that an EJB depends upon through inheritance or through another association (e.g. a custom user Exception class that and EJB might throw) into the same JAR file.
Please reply and set me straight on this. Thanks in advance.
Jeff

1. You can include any classes in your EJB jar file, and it is widely used. You can also include other files (e.g. properties) and access them through the class loader (as resources).
2. If you use some libraries, you may reference them with Class-Path: element in your manifest file. It is not necessary to unpack the library and include its classes in your jar file. (About "Class-Path" -- look page about manifest in the java tutorial (in the JAR files trail)).
3. Your JAR can contain no classes, just a deployment descriptor, if your classes are somewhere and you have referenced them with "Class-Path". ;)

MSI package question

Hello,
This is not really a SCCM question, but I don't really know where to post this question and I thought a lot of MSI geeks are in this forum too.
In my company an in-house tool was developed and is available as a MSI package. The package requires .NET 4.5.
When I deploy this MSI in my environment without any switch I'm receiving this error message.
"This advertised application will not be installed, because it might be unsafe. Contact your administrator to change the installation user interface option of the package to basic"
If I run the MSI with the switch msiexec /I product.msi /qb /norestart, the installation will start but gives back an error during the installation. Error 1001: Some or all identity reference could not be translated".
I'm clueless what is going on. I have seen the installation went fine with computers which are in production for a longer time. I perform the tests mainly on computers which were freshly imaged. Even I cannot install the tool with a fresh image computer
which have only the OS and .NET 4.5 installed.
Our OS is Windows 7 SP1 64bit ENG with the DE MUI installed.
Do you have an idea what the problem could be? I googled a bit for the error messages but I have not found real help for my issue.
Thanks,
Edy from Switzerland

this is not the exact error but check this out
https://support.microsoft.com/kb/941209?wa=wsignin1.0
1. Create a new local user group with name "Network Service"
2. Add the localized network service account to the recently created "Network Service" group. Here's a mapping:
German - NT-AUTORITÄT\NETZWERKDIENST
French - AUTORITE NT\SERVICE RÉSEAU
Italian - NT AUTHORITY\SERVIZIO DI RETE
Spanish - NT AUTHORITY\SERVICIO DE RED
maybe this might fix it?

Few basic SRM questions .......

I recently completed the SRM training from SAP and I have few basic questions and need help. Full points will be rewarded.
These are my questions and it is based on SRM 5.0 Classic Scenario with R/3 backend
1. Invoice & confirmation transferred to R/3 via ALE ? . All other documents are transferred to R/3 via RFC?
2. Based on the configuration, if the material is available in the backend then reservation will be created. Other wise PO will be created. For text items, PR will be created.
     a. Who (purchaser) will process the PR in R/3 and how it is processed?.
     b. Who (purchaser?) will process the reservation in R/3 and how it is
         processed?. Assume no sourcing is setup in this case and No MRP run.
3. How the vendor is linked to the Material or product category in SRM?. During the vendor replication from R/3, vendor and material/prod category link is automatically maintained?
4. How the vendor is linked to a specific purchasing org/group? Is it based on the prod category assigned in the org structure for each purchasing org or purchasing group?
5. How to do delta prod category replication?
6. How to do Delta Material Replication?.
7. Contracts and vendor list:-
    In our SAP training we created these from the browser. But in the actual
    implementation how do we create this?. Is it always from the browser?
8. Direct Material and Plan driven Procurement.
   Can we use catalog items as direct material?. Just for example - > What
   about Car Batteries that is directly used in production and has the inventory
   also. But we are using electronic catalog for procuring this item. Is it possible to
   order this as direct material?
9. How to replicate Plant. How to use DNL_PLNT?. Is BBP_LOCATIONS_GET_ALL will replicate all the PLANT's and its locations from the R/3 backend?
10. In the HR system, which transaction we can view the org structure?

You can use the following three routines to download locations from the backend system and store them as business partners in SAP Enterprise Buyer.
BBP_LOCATIONS_GET_ALL
To get all the location numbers from each backend system that is connected
BBP_LOCATIONS_GET_FROM_SYSTEM
To get all the location numbers from one particular backend system
BBP_LOCATIONS_GET_SELECTED
To get selected locations
Previously, locations were not given business partner numbers in SAP Enterprise Buyer. If you are configuring an upgrade, you can use routines BBP_LOCATIONS_GET_FROM_SYSTEM and BBP_LOCATIONS_GET_SELECTED to check that the following conversions have been made:
·        Conversion of user favorites
·        Conversion of user attributes
·        Conversion of old documents
Routine BBP_LOCATIONS_GET_ALL checks these automatically.
Once you have run the routines, the location data is available in the SAP Enterprise Buyer system. Table BBP_LOCMAP contains the mapping information (in other words, which business partner number corresponds to which location in which backend system).

Adobe Reader 9.3.2 silent install package questions, please ...

Hello:
I am a network and Desktop Support person for a higher education facility. I was asked to take over automating software application
installs.
I have a script process, created by Auto-It (Scite script editor), that has been working well for Adobe Reader 9.1 with updates to 9.1.1, 9.1.2 and 9.1.3 (found on the Internet) -
msiexec /i \\<server>\<path>\AcroRead.msi TRANSFORMS=\\<server>\<path>\AcroRead_10132009.mst /passive /norestart /update \\<server>\<path>\AdbeRdrUpd911_all_incr.msp;\\<server>\<path>\AdbeRdrUpd912_all_incr.msp; \\<server>\<path>\AdbeRdrUpd913_all_incr.msp
My questions:
Is there a similar process for installing Adobe Reader 9.3 silently and then updating to 9.3.2?
If so, what are the steps, ex. expand/extract the initial 9.3 .EXE, then create a transform using Orca/<transform making of choice>, etc.?
With having read of some issues in this forum regarding Adobe Reader 9.3.2, should I continue using 9.1.3 and wait?
Thank you for your time.

Well we have a wiki where I work, and here is then entry I have created on how to deploy Adobe Reader. See if any of this helps, if not, we'll take it from there.
Deployment
It is HIGHLY recommended that you read and follow the directions of the deployment guide provided by Adobe located at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/deploying_reader9.pdf. The documentation located here is simply for a quick reference for those who have already read the guide.
The rights to distribute Adobe Reader must be obtained by filling out the form found at http://www.adobe.com/products/reader/rdr_distribution1.html. After filling out the form and being accepted to distribute Adobe Reader, you will receive an email with a link to download the redistributable version of Adobe Reader. You will be prompted to download a .exe package containing the Reader MSI file. The general form of the command to convert a Nosso-compressed file to an MSI package is:
<path to>\AdbeRdr90_en_US.exe [<switches>...]
Switch
Description
-nos_ne
Do not execute any file after installation (overrides the -e switch) This switch should be used if user only wants to extract the installer contents and not run the installer.
-nos_o
Specifies the name of folder where the contents of the expanded package are to be placed. The folder name should be enclosed in quotation marks. It is best if you do not use an existing folder, and there should be no space following the “-nos_o”.
For example:<path to>\AdbeRdr90_en_US.exe -nos_o”TestFolder” -nos_ne
Using the extracted MSI, create an Administrative Installation Point (AIP) using the command-line:
msiexec /a <path to>\AcroPro.msi transforms=<path to>\AcroPro.mst
The AcroPro.mst transform file is created by the Adobe Customization Wizard 9
You can apply any patches that may have been released since the major version release. Use the command-line:
msiexec /a <path to>\AcroPro.msi /p <path to>\AdbeRdrUpd931.msp;<path to>\AdbeRdrUpd932.msp
Once all this is complete, you can fully deploy the software by running the command-line:
<path to>\AcroRead.msi transforms=<path to>\AcroRead.mst /qb
More information can also be found in the Enterprise Administration Guide

Basic swing question

I just started looking at swing yesterday because I want to provide a GUI to replace a command line utility we use. I've basically finished it but have a quick question about form - I will get some literature later but would like to get a feel from the people here. If you have a JFrame with a few JPanels each which contain some other components, what is the best practice for variable declaration? Should I just declare the variables locally or should I make them instance variables? The reason I ask is that I have a button that submits a message but that message is dependant on check boxes, etc. from from the frame. If I declare them at the method level I then have to start passing them around whereas if I declare them as instance variables I can access them very easily BUT this may not be good form.
For example:
my class is SendMessageToo so in the main method I have a line like:
final SendMessageToo smt = new SendMessageToo();
now all the instance variables that I have can be accessed my the methods simply using smt.methodOne(), etc. Does that seem OK or is it just pure crap? :-)

Thanks, that was something that crossed my mind before I just made eveything an instance variable. It was during that process that I thought, do these all need to be instance variables? Then I thought, SHOULD they all be instance variables. At that point my brain imploded so I came here. :)
