Best Practices for Using JSF with AJAX - BluePrints OR Ajax4Jsf ?

I am a newbie to AJAX4JSF . I think it provides Rapid Application Development (RAD) just by using tags like a4j: without the need to develop complex JSF Custom Components as shown in BluePrints Catalog
https://bpcatalog.dev.java.net/ajax/jsf-ajax/
I understand the purpose of developing JSF Custom components as Reusable for using with AJAX. But its complex and requires lot of coding i.e. PhaseListeners and Managed Beans. There should be easy way to do this especially our project needs RAD tool like AJAX4JSF.
Any suggestions will be highly appreciated

Bansi, you are trying to compare orange-to-apple. Blue print catalog is a historical retrospection about what people thought about AJAXifying JSF in the past. Currently, the playground has been moved to the jsf-extension project. Look for DynaFaces there.

Best practice for using Muse with Lightroom?

I'm creating a photography website. I use Lightroom to manage my photographs, and I keep the pictures for my site in Collections.
In Muse, I'd like to have ALT text descriptions (or something similar) of each picture, so that search engines can see what's on my site.
Is there a way to embed the descriptions into the image info in Lightroom, and have it export in a way that Muse picks it up?
My problem is this: I've been creating ALT tags in my Muse slideshows (by right clicking on each image and selecting "Edit image properties..."). This works, but I lose my ALT tag if I export the images from Lightroom using any naming convention that doesn't maintain a consistent relationship between image and name. This makes it very difficult to manage my exports from Lightroom, especially if I want to add images or change the order of images.
At the risk of providing too much detail, the reason I rename images on export is this: In Lightroom, my images are named with my client's last name and a sequence number. When I export them for use on my website, I want them to have a different name, primarily to protect my clients' privacy, but also to allow me to organize them easily in my slideshows. So for example Jones-103.dng gets exported as Checkerbox-Wedding-Photography-[nnn].jpg, where [nnn] is a new sequence number.
Can anyone tell me a better way to manage this workflow?

What is the best practice for using the Calendar control with the Dispatcher?

It seems as if the Dispatcher is restricting access to the Query Builder (/bin/querybuilder.json) as a best practice regarding security. However, the Calendar relies on this endpoint to build the events for the calendar. On Author / Publish this works fine but once we place the Dispatcher in front, the Calendar no longer works. We've noticed the same behavior on the Geometrixx site.
What is the best practice for using the Calendar control with Dispatcher?
Thanks in advance.

Not sure what exactly you are asking but Muse handles the different orientations nicely without having to do anything.

What are the best practices for using the enhancement framework?

Hello enhancement framework experts,
Recently, my company upgraded to SAP NW 7.1 EhP6. This presents us with the capability to use the enhancement framework.
A couple of senior programmers were asked to deliver a guideline for use of the framework. They published the following statement:
"SAP does not guarantee the validity of the enhancement points in future releases/versions. As a result, any implemented enhancement points may require significant work during upgrades. So, enhancement points should essentially be used as an alternative to core modifications, which is a rare scenario.".
I am looking for confirmation or contradiction to the statement "SAP does not guarantee the validity of enhancement points in future releases/versions..." . Is this a true statement for both implicit and explicit enhancement points?
Is the impact of activated explicit and implicit enhancements much greater to an SAP upgrade than BAdi's and user exits?
Is there any SAP published guidelines/best practices for use of the enhancement framework?
Thank you,
Kimberly

Best practice when using Tangosol with an app server

Hi,
I'm wondering what is the best practice when using Tangosol with an app server (Websphere 6.1 in this case). I've been able to set it up using the resource adapter, tried using distributed transactions and it appears to work as expected - I've also been able to see cache data from another app server instance.
However, it appears that cache data vanishes after a while. I've not yet been able to put my finger on when, but garbage collection is a possibility I've come to suspect.
Data in the cache survives the removal of the EJB, but somewhere later down the line it appear to vanish. I'm not aware of any expiry settings for the cache that would explain this (to the best of my understanding the default is "no expiry"), so GC came to mind. Would this be the explanation?
If that would be the explanation, what would be a better way to keep the cache from being subject to GC - to have a "startup class" in the app server that holds on to the cache object, or would there be other ways? Currently the EJB calls getCacheAdapter, so I guess Bad Things may happen when the EJB is removed...
Best regards,

Hi Gene,
I found the configuration file embedded in coherence.jar. Am I supposed to replace it and re-package coherence.jar?
If I put it elsewhere (in the "classpath") - is there a way I can be sure that it has been found by Coherence (like a message in the standard output stream)? My experience with Websphere is that "classpath" is a rather ...vague concept, we use the J2CA adapter which most probably has a different class loader than the EAR that contains the EJB, and I would rather avoid to do a lot of trial/error corrections to a file just to find that it's not actually been used.
Anyway, at this stage my tests are still focused on distributed transactions/2PC/commit/rollback/recovery, and we're nowhere near 10,000 objects. As a matter of fact, we haven't had more than 1024 objects in these app servers. In the typical scenario where I've seen objects "fade away", there has been only one or two objects in the test data. And they both disappear...
Still confused,

Best practice for use of spatial operators

Hi All,
I'm trying to build a .NET toolkit to interact with Oracles spatial operators. The most common use of this toolkit will be to find results which are within a given geometry - for example select parish boundaries within a county.
Our boundary data is high detail, commonly containing upwards of 50'000 vertices for a county sized polygon.
I've currently been experimenting with queries such as:
select
from
uk_ward a,
uk_county b
where
UPPER(b.name) = 'DORSET COUNTY' and
sdo_relate(a.geoloc, b.geoloc, 'mask=coveredby+inside') = 'TRUE';
However the speed is unacceptable, especially as most of the implementations of the toolkit will be web based. The query above takes around a minute to return.
Any comments or thoughts on the best practice for use of Oracle spatial in this way will be warmly welcomed. I'm looking for a solution which is as quick and efficient as possible.

Thanks again for the reply... the query currently takes just under 90 seconds to return. Here are the results from the execution plan ran in sql*:

All i want to do with this is generate results which fall in a particular geometry. Most of my testing has been successful i just seem to run into issues when querying against a county sized polygon - i guess due to the amount of vertices.
Also looking through the forums now for tuning topics...

Best practice for sharing data with model window

Hi team,
what would the best practice for sharing data with a modal
window be ? I use a modal window to display record details from a
record list, but i am not quite sure how to access the data from
the components in the main application in the modal window.
Any hints would be welcome
Best
Frank

Pass a reference to the parent into the modal popup. Then you
can reference anything in the parent scope.
I haven't done this i 2.0 yet so I can't give you code. I'll
post if I do.
Oh, also, you can reference the parent using parentDocument.
So in the popup you could do:
parentDocument.myPublicVariable = "whatever";

Best practices for apps integration with third party systems ?

Hi all
I would like to know if there is any document from oracle or from your own regarding best practices for apps integration with third party systems.
For example, in particular, let's say we need customization in a given module(ex:payables) need to provide data to a third party system, consider following:
outbound interface:
1)should third party system should be given with direct access to oracle database to access a particular payments data information table/view to look for data ?
2) should oracle create a file to third party system, so that it can read and do what it need to do?
inbound:
1) should third party should directly login and insert data into tables which holds response data?
2) again, should third party create file and oralce apps will pick up for further processing?
again, there could be lot of company specific scenarios like it has to be real time or not... etc...
How does companies make sure third party systems are not directly dipping into other systems (oracle apps/others), so that it will follow certain integration best practices.
how does enterprise architectute will play a role in this? can we apply SOA standards? should use request/reply using Tibco etc?
Many oracle apps implementations customizations are more or less directly interacting with third party systems by including code to login into respective third party systems and vice versa.
Let me your know if you have done differently and that would help oracle apps community.
thanks
rrb.

you want to send idoc to third party system (NONSAP).
what kind of system is it? can it handle http requests
or
can it handle webservice?
which version of R/3 you are using?
what is the mechanism the receiving system has, to receive data?

Best practices for using the knowledge directory

Anyone know when it is best to store docs in the Knowledge Directory versus Collab? They are both searchable, but I guess you can publish from the Publisher to the KD. Anyone have any best practices for using the KD or setting up taxonomies in the KD?

Hi Richard,
If you need to configure dynamic pricing that may vary by tenant and/or if you want to set up cost drivers that are service item attributes, you should configure Billing Tables in the Demand Management module in 10.0.
The cost detail functionality in 9.4 will likely be changed to merged with the new pricing feature in 10.0. The current plan is not to bring cost detail into the Service Catalog module.

Best practices for using the 'cost details' fields

Hi
Please could you advise us to the best practices for using the 'cost details' field within Pricing. Currently I cannot find the way to surface the individual Cost Details fields within the Next Generation UI, even with the tick box for 'display both cost and price' ticked. It seems that these get surfaced when the Next Generation UI is turned off, but cannot find them when it is turned on. We can see the 'Pricing Summary' field but this does not fulfill our needs, as some of our services have both recurring and one-off costs.
Attached are some screenshots to further explain the situation.
Many thanks,
Richard Thornton

Best Practice for using multiple models

Hi Buddies,
     Can u tell me the best practices for using multiple models in single WD application?
    Means --> I am using 3 RFCs on single application for my function. Each time i am importing that RFC model under
    WD --->Models and i did model binding seperately to Component Controller. Is this is the right way to impliment multiple            models in single application ?

It very much depends on your design, but One RFC per model is definitely a no no.
Refer to this document to understand how should you use the model in most efficient way.

Hi Dale,
I have a Project Level custom field "Supervisor Name" that is used for Project Information.
For the purpose of viewing that "Project Level custom field Data" in
Project views , I have made Task Level custom field
"SupName" and used Formula:
[SupName] = [Supervisor Name]
That shows Supervisor Name in Schedule.aspx
============
Question: I want that Project Level custom field "Supervisor Name" in
My Work views (Tasks.aspx).
The field is enabled in Task.aspx BUT Data is not present / blank column.
How can I get the data in "My Work views" ?

JSF - Best Practice For Using Managed Bean

I want to discuss what is the best practice for managed bean usage, especially using session scope or request scope to build database driven pages
---- Session Bean ----
- In the book Core Java Server Faces, the author mentioned that most of the cases session bean should be used, unless the processing is passed on to other handler. Since JSF can store the state on client side, i think storing everything in session is not a big memory concern. (can some expert confirm this is true?) Session objects are easy to manage and states can be shared across the pages. It can make programming easy.
In the case of a page binded to a resultset, the bean usually helds a java.util.List object for the result, which is intialized in the constructor by query the database first. However, this approach has a problem: when user navigates to other page and comes back, the data is not refreshed. You can of course solve the problem by issuing query everytime in your getXXX method. But you need to be very careful that you don't bind this XXX property too many times. In the case of querying in getXXX, setXXX is also tricky as you don't have a member to set. You usually don't want to persist the resultset changes in the setXXX as the changes may not be final, in stead, you want to handle in the actionlistener (like a save(actionevent)).
I would glad to see your thought on this.
--- Request Bean ---
request bean is initialized everytime a reuqest is made. It sometimes drove me nuts because JSF seems not to be every consistent in updating model values. Suppose you have a page showing parent-children a list of records from database, and you also allow user to change directly on the children. if I hbind the parent to a bean called #{Parent} and you bind the children to ADF table (value="#{Parent.children}" var="rowValue". If I set Parent as a request scope, the setChildren method is never called when I submit the form. Not sure if this is just for ADF or it is JSF problem. But if you change the bean to session scope, everything works fine.
I believe JSF doesn't update the bindings for all component attributes. It only update the input component value binding. Some one please verify this is true.
In many cases, i found request bean is very hard to work with if there are lots of updates. (I have lots of trouble with update the binding value for rendered attributes).
However, request bean is working fine for read only pages and simple binded forms. It definitely frees up memory quicker than session bean.
----- any comments or opinions are welcome!!! ------

I think it should be either Option 2 or Option 3.
Option 2 would be necessary if the bean data depends on some request parameters.
(Example: Getting customer bean for a particular customer id)
Otherwise Option 3 seems the reasonable approach.
But, I am also pondering on this issue. The above are just my initial thoughts.

Best Practices for Using Photoshop (and Computing in General)

I've been seeing some threads that lead me to realize that not everyone knows the best practices for doing Photoshop on a computer, and in doing conscientious computing in general. I thought it might be a good idea for those of us with some exprience to contribute and discuss best practices for making the Photoshop and computing experience more reliable and enjoyable.
It'd be great if everyone would contribute their ideas, and especially their personal experience.
Here are some of my thoughts on data integrity (this shouldn't be the only subject of this thread):
Consider paying more for good hardware. Computers have almost become commodities, and price shopping abounds, but there are some areas where spending a few dollars more can be beneficial. For example, the difference in price between a top-of-the-line high performance enterprise class hard drive and the cheapest model around with, say, a 1 TB capacity is less than a hundred bucks! Disk drives do fail! They're not all created equal. What would it cost you in aggravation and time to lose your data? Imagine it happening at the worst possible time, because that's exactly when failures occur.
Use an Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS). Unexpected power outages are TERRIBLE for both computer software and hardware. Lost files and burned out hardware are a possibility. A UPS that will power the computer and monitor can be found at the local high tech store and doesn't cost much. The modern ones will even communicate with the computer via USB to perform an orderly shutdown if the power failure goes on too long for the batteries to keep going. Again, how much is it worth to you to have a computer outage and loss of data?
Work locally, copy files elsewhere. Photoshop likes to be run on files on the local hard drive(s). If you are working in an environment where you have networking, rather than opening a file right off the network, then saving it back there, consider copying the file to your local hard drive then working on it there. This way an unexpected network outage or error won't cause you to lose work.
Never save over your original files. You may have a library of original images you have captured with your camera or created. Sometimes these are in formats that can be re-saved. If you're going to work on one of those files (e.g., to prepare it for some use, such as printing), and it's a file type that can be overwritten (e.g., JPEG), as soon as you open the file save the document in another location, e.g., in Photoshop .psd format.
Save your master files in several places. While you are working in Photoshop, especially if you've done a lot of work on one document, remember to save your work regularly, and you may want to save it in several different places (or copy the file after you have saved it to a backup folder, or save it in a version management system). Things can go wrong and it's nice to be able to go back to a prior saved version without losing too much work.
Make Backups. Back up your computer files, including your Photoshop work, ideally to external media. Windows now ships with a quite good backup system, and external USB drives with surprisingly high capacity (e.g., Western Digital MyBook) are very inexpensive. The external drives aren't that fast, but a backup you've set up to run late at night can finish by morning, and if/when you have a failure or loss of data. And if you're really concerned with backup integrity, you can unplug an external drive and take it to another location.
This stuff is kind of "motherhood and apple pie" but it's worth getting the word out I think.
Your ideas?

APC Back-UPS XS 1300. $169.99 at Best Buy.
Our power outages here are usually only a few seconds; this should give my server about 20 or 25 minutes run-time.
I'm setting up the PowerChute software now to shut down the computer when 5 minutes of power is left. The load with the monitor sleeping is 171 watts.
This has surge protection and other nice features as well.
