Best file splitting/joining software

I have a big QT Pro Res file that I'd like to split into 4 parts to transfer to a film festival. Any recommnedations on the best software out there to do this with? I want it to be simple for the other end to re-connect these files. I guess ideally the software should be Mac/PC compatible in case they are using PCs - I am finding this out. I don't want an editing option - I have that - I just need an automatic file splitter/joiner.
Thank you!

Sorry, didn't really make that clear - I have editing software such as FCP and Avid Media Composer. I don't want to cut this sequence up and then export separate chunks for someone to have to re-assemble manually at the other end. What I need is a programme that will cut the file into numbered chunks that can be automatically re-assembled. I am trying Split & Concat.
Thank you.

Best File Compression Software

What is the best file compression software on Mac OSX in terms of both user-friendliness and performance?

Stuffit Deluxe's native .sitx archives make the smallest files. You can even set the compression rate. Smaller will take more time, but of course, saves more space. It's all I and my client's use. It even compresses .jpg images quite a bit, whereas .zip does almost nothing to them.
There are drawbacks to all formats, though. Zip and Stuffit both do a lousy job on video files. RAR will usually cut the size down by at least half. But the only way to create RAR files on the Mac is through the Terminal. It astounds me that no one has come up with an OS X native application for this. Or that Stuffit hasn't added it to their choices. Stuffit can open RAR files, so they obviously know how the compression scheme works. Why not add the option to create them?
As far as someone opening the Stuffit files you create? All a person needs to do is download the free Expander if they don't own Stuffit Deluxe or Standard.

Unexpected error compiling the runtime metadata for Split-Join.

Hi Everyone,
We are getting below error while restarting the managed servers on Weblogic. We are having 6 managed servers in our cluster. In one of the application in OSB10.3, we are using SplitJoin to call third party webservices. The application is getting deployed properly, and sometimes on one of the managed nodes, we are seeing below error during startup. The servers are coming into Running mode as per the console, but in logs we are seeing the error. No services are accessible on that particular managed node. We have to restart the server and by luck, it will come up properly. This is inconsistent behaviour from the managed servers. Below is the stack trace from stdout files. Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Most 8.1 development was done with Workshop (the version before Eclipse integration). It is not set up to do Workshop Framework builds with Eclipse OOTB.
If you are going to use Eclipse, then I would guess that your builds would be best done using Ant or similar. Check out the wls web service samples that install with the product and see if you can use any of those as a basis for using ANT in Eclipse.
This is only theory, as I have not worked extensively with 8.1.

XML File splitting in PI

Hi all,
We have a requirement that the receiving application can accept files only of size 2MB. So this is a limitation from the receiving application
The source system is SAP ECC system and the receiving application is a legacy application.
Technically it is a ABAP Proxy to File scenario. Receiving application can accept files only in XML format.
SAP ABAP Proxy code is written in such a way to read all the records in a SAP table and the full table load is sent as an proxy xml message to PI, PI has to split this full xml file in to chunks based on some condition and then transfer it to receiving legacy application.
Can we achieve file splitting in PI for XML files based on no.of records or size.
Please share your inputs/pointers to provide the best solution to this requirement.
regards,
Younus

Hi,
Yes this can be done by the amount of records you send through at a time.
So lets there is 10000 records. You might only send 200 at a time and that will keep it under the 2mb limitation.
This is a simple if function on your nodes. Please see the links below that would help you.

Oracle Service Bus 10.3 - split join how to set header for invoked service

In Oracle Service Bus 10.3 how can I set the header for the service being invoked. We make parallel calls to 2 different business services. One of the invoked service requires header to be set and I am unable to figure out how it can be done. Below are snippet of the code and WSDL.
--- Login Operation start ---
<operation name="login">
<wsdlsoap:operation soapAction="blah"/>
<input name="loginRequest">
<wsdlsoap:body use="literal"/>
<wsdlsoap:header message="passport:loginHeader" part="hppwsHeaderElement" use="literal"/>
</input>
<output name="loginResponse">
<wsdlsoap:body use="literal"/>
</output>
<fault name="genericFaultException">
<wsdlsoap:fault name="genericFaultException" use="literal"/>
</fault>
</operation>
--- Login Operation end ---
--- hppwsHeader Element --
<complexType name="hppwsHeaderElement">
<sequence>
<element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="version" type="tns1:version"/>
<element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="tx-id" type="tns1:tx-id"/>
<element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="1" name="systemLangCode" type="xsd:string"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
--- LoginRequest Element ---
<xs:element name="loginRequestElement" type="s0:loginRequestType"/>
<xs:complexType name="loginRequestType">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="userId" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" type="xs:string"/>

</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>

<xs:complexType name="loginResultType">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="sessionToken" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
In Oracle Workshop for WebLogic when I create a split-join .flow file while adding the invoke service call to login operation I am prompted to create the loginRequest and loginResponse variables. I can assign the appropriate expression to loginRequest.loginRequestElement prior to making the invoke call but then the backend business call fails because "systemLangCode" is not defined and set. Actual fault is
<ns1:genericFault xmlns:ns1="http://hppcbl.globalops.company.com/webservice">
<systemLangCode>en</systemLangCode>
<fault>
<ruleNumber>589</ruleNumber>
<fieldName>systemLangCode</fieldName>
<code>field.empty</code>
<desc>System language code is required.</desc>
<ftype>2</ftype>
</fault>
</ns1:genericFault>
I would really appreciate if someone could guide me on how to resolve this
Regards,
-Nilay

There is this $header variable which you should populate before calling the BS. What is the type of BS? If it is WSDL BS , Any Soap BS then above solution will work. I assume that yours is WSDL based BS and setting $header should resolve this issue.
AnyXML and Messaging type BS services requires that you create proper pay load (setting $header will not work).
There is also other actions Set Transport Headers {outbound request/inbound response} which can be used to set transport related headers but not soap headers.

File-splitting based on content.

Hi Experts,
This question is regarding file-splitting.
Its a BAI2 file with multiple records in it.
a)I need to split the file based on an identifier and make those many sub-files ( with header and trailer added to the file )
b)And can we ensure we have the same name for the files? ( with a count suffixed in the end )
The forum talks about BPM, Enhanced Interface/Receiver Determination, Message Mapping split etc..
Which would be the best approach for this?
Please advise.
Thank you,
Rakesh.

Hi,
Using Enhanced Interface/Receiver Determination approach is best one.
1.If your version is 7.1 and above, you can also try using enhanced interface determination. Please go through the below link
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/90dcc6f4-0829-2d10-b0b2-c892473f1571?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true
2.In the Receiver Determination, you need to select " Extended" in the Type of Receeiver determination.

The best third party recovery software for OS X?

Can someone please recommend the best third party recovery software for OS X. Accidentally emtied my trash when I shouldn't have.
Thank you for your help.

General File Recovery
If you stop using the drive it's possible to recover deleted files that have not been overwritten by using recovery software such as Data Rescue II, File Salvage or TechTool Pro. Each of the preceding come on bootable CDs to enable usage without risk of writing more data to the hard drive. Two free alternatives are Disk Drill and TestDisk. Look for them and demos at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.
The longer the hard drive remains in use and data are written to it, the greater the risk your deleted files will be overwritten.
Also visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on Data Recovery.

Error in Split-Join when invoke similliar B.Service with same namespace

Hi Guys,
I having a split-join that doing parallel spliting call out to business service. And i encounter this error.
Severity and Description Path Resource Location Creation Time Id
Error compiling the Schema Type System: error: sch-props-correct.2: Duplicate global type: GetabcParam@http://www.xx.xx.abc (Original global type found in file: null) SplitJoin.flow line 1 1265267604208 5245
Can I know is this a limitation of the OSB or is a Bug? Or there is a more better way to implement this?
Edited by: kpchong on Feb 4, 2010 7:51 AM

I'm not sure if this is a known limitation or a bug. I faced this issue once, but needed quick fix so I didn't contact Oracle support at all.
I remember that the problem emerged in case I had a SplitJoin with Parallel action and both branches used WSDL-based business services whose WSDL files imported the same (shared) XSD file. As I wrote before I needed quick fix, so I ended with re-adjusted namespaces just to overcome this issue. Ugly but effective.

Oracle Service Bus 10.3 - Invoke a REST service in split join flow

Hi
I am using WebLogic Workshop to design a split-join service that needs to call 2 services and combine their responses.
Service A - WSDL based service
Service B - REST service
In the split join flow I am able to invoke Service A just fine. However I do not have a way to call Service B. When I open the invoke dialog it only list WSDL based services.
Does this mean in a split join I can only invoke WSDL based services or is this a bug in Weblogic Workshop.
I can get around this by creating a WSDL based proxy that calls the REST service but was hoping I do not have to go down this route.
Any guidance is appreciated.
Thanks,
-Nilay

I think that Split-Joins are implemented in BPEL. Just look at your .flow file and you will see all those BPEL directives. That's why you probably need your service to be described by WSDL, so you are probably on the right way.

OSB Split Join Repeat Until Question On XPath Condition

I'm trying to use OSB File Transport to stream a very large XML document file into a service which will split the file into very many small XML documents. So, given a file like:
<BookStore>
<Book></Book>
<Book></Book>
... (many more books)
</BookStore>
In the split join I want to use a 'repeat until' to process each Book until there are no more Books in the BookStore. Here's my question: What is the correct XPath expression to use as the Repeat Until terminating condition? (I'm an XPath novice.)
Thanks for your help!!!

Hi,
Based on what I understood, you should be using a for each loop with the conditions as follows:
Within the Split Join flow
for each ( counter variable from 1 to Count (xpath of book) ) --> For my example it was count($request.parameter/sjpoc:Orders/sjpoc:Order) replace this with your xpath.
- do your logic
Snapshot just in case @ http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19901533/sj_foreach_snapshot.JPG
Based on this the split and join would happen for n (based on count) number of Book tags.
Let me know if my understanding is incorrect.
Thanks,
Patrick

What is the best antivirus/malware protection software for my iMac desktop

What is the best antivirus/malware protection software for my iMac

None is needed.
Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
See these Apple articles:
          Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
          OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
          OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
          About file quarantine in OS X
If you require anti-virus protection Thomas Reed recommends using Dr.Web Light from the App Store. It's free, and since it's from the App Store, it won't destabilize the system. If you prefer one of the better known commercial products, then Thomas recommends using Sophos.(Thank you to Thomas Reed for these recommendations.) If you already use Sophos, then be aware of this if you are using Mavericks: OS X Mavericks- Sophos Anti-Virus on-access scanner versions 8.0 - 9.1 may cause unexpected restarts
From user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
The facts are:
1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
2. There is no anti-malware that can detect anything targeting the Mac because there
     is no Mac malware in the wild, and therefore, no "signatures" to detect.
3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
     the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
     techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
    your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
    protection against malware.
5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
    from which they purport to protect you.
6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.
8. Avoid links you receive in email, always be suspicious even if you get something
    you think is from a friend, but you were not expecting.
9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume it is malware.

What is the best file for editing?

I have movie clips that I need to burn onto a DVD-R. This DVD will be given to a friend and he will edit the contents in his own editing program (Pinnacle software). He asked for the highest resolution possible.
Of the following, which is the best file to create for him so that he can edit it?
- DV
- AVI
- MPEG-1
- MPEG-2
- MPEG-4
Thank you!!

if your source is from a camcorder, the native codec DV is 'best'.
iMHD imports those streams from tape 1by1, it is a 'clone', a bit-identical 'copy' from the tape.. couldn't be an better...
avi - is no codec nor 'format', just an old Windows media container. can contain literally all kind of codecs..
mpeg1 - historic (=old) codec, Standard don't allow a higher res than 320x240 .. antiqué, therefor veery compatible.. not meant for editing, a delivery codec, e.g. on VCDs...
mpeg2 - comes in many flavors, as on videoDVDs (.vob), .mod (JVC camcorders), .ts (transport streams from digital receivers), and in many 'versions', as h263, h264.. again: delivery codec by concept.
mpeg4 - 'inbetween' version of mpeg1 and mpeg2, comes again in many flavors.. delivery codec by concept.

Grab from an instance within split join

Hi All
I have a process, and every now and then a user from role 'G' wants to grab the instances of a process (that may exist in any activity) to one of his activities, say 'AAG' (Activity After Grab :)). The Grab activities properties are defined so that it can grab instances from 'All' activities and then assign to 'AAG'.
You can visualize the process like this:
Activity A1 --> Split ----> branch 1 after split forwards to Activity AS1, brach 2 after split forwards to Activity AS2 ---> join ---> A3 --> A4 ---> AAG --> A5 ---> end
Now when an instance has executed the split, the main instance waits at join. THe child instances are each at activity AS1 and AS2.
When a user wants to grab this instance, the idea is that AS1 and AS2 should disappear, the instance at join should go to AAG.
To realize that, if I try to grab the instance waiting at join, I can move this to AAG. However instances at AS1 and AS2 still remain there.
If I try to grab instances at AS1 or AS2, I can not send them to AAG.
Any workarounds?
I am basically using PAPI to get hold of the instances. Was thinking of grabbing the instance at join, and terminating all others. But am looking for a better solution.
THanks
Satinder

Hi Dan
You are right, this might be an option (I have not yet tried it though). But I guess it still might not be the best option because -
1. This user can grab instance in any activity and assign to AAG. Now if an activity is not within split-join, then we dont really need to interrupt the instance and call this message activity, a grab works fine. Message activity will also work fine, but that would mean that for every activity in the process I will need to add a conditional transition (executed when flagToGoToAAG = true) that goes to AAG.
2. We got a little more than usual complex process. It has about 6-7 splits. Also there are about three Grab activities. This would mean about 7*3 additional transitions originating from different joins.
I was looking for a solution may be that can process/abort all instances within split-join when the instance at join is grabbed.
Thanks for your help.
Cheers
BTW, I have never used a MessageWait, in case this becomes the only option available, could you let me know how to create an interrupt from PAPI for this messageWait.
Thanks a lot

Jordan asks:
What is the best anti virus ... software to date
I sez:
Don't date software. Date girls.
But if you MUST date software and are concerned about catching cooties, may I suggest that Intego's new VirusBarrier 4X ?
Intego VirusBarrier X4 is the simple, fast and non-intrusive antivirus security solution for Macintosh computers, by Intego, the leading publisher of personal security software for Macintosh. It offers thorough protection against viruses of all types, coming from infected files or applications, whether on CD-ROMs, DVDs or other removable media, or on files downloaded over the Internet or other types of networks.

The main idea is that an antivirus program should not require the user to do anything once it is installed and configured, unless a virus is detected. The Intego VirusBarrier X4 philosophy can be summed up in three words: simple, fast and non-intrusive.

Best file system for PPC Mac, Intel Mac, and Win 7 PC

I really was nut sure which section to post this in, so this seemed like the best place. I have a 3TB external hard drive, that I need to read and write to on a G5 running 10.5.8, A MacBook Pro running 10.8.2, and various windows PC's, what is the best file system to use, or better yet, format, depending on what terminology you use, adn I need to transfer large files(larger than the 4GB limit on FAT). Im willing to try any suggestions. I would prefer not to use extra software, if it is neccessary though, I can on the mac's but not as easily on the Win PC's. I would also prefer an app from apple, I seem to have bad luck with third-party software, but if you know of one that works nicely, again, I'm willing to try any suggestions.

Another alternative is a two-partition external drive. All platforms supported without special software on one drive. You could use mnemonic partition names like HFS and EXF for mounted recognition. Think of this as a functional, single-drive, mirrored RAID set (RAID 1). A file copy to each partition (if needed) provides redundant platform interoperabililty and file backup.
