Best way to handle user access levels with spring.

I'm a spring newb, and I'm not sure how to properly handle user access levels with a validation controller. There seems to be a lot of information out there about creating simple login validators but like I've said I need to create multiple levels of user access. I could throw something together but i want to do it correctly. Does anyone here have any links to resources or information they could provide?

ST wasn't exactly abusive. If you had typed "spring security" into Google, you would have gotten exactly what I recommended. So why would you say that his advice to try Google first was being a "smart @ss"? It's actually a good recommendation. Try it before you post here.

What the best way to create User defined table with ADDON purpose

Hi folks, how are you ?
I´m beginner in development to business one, and I m studying to develop ISV addons.
But, during my exercises and analisys, I learned that have two ways to create tables and fields in business one. One way is throght by wizard in business one using Tools Menu > Configuration Tools > User Defined Tables >
Obs: I ´m using Business One Patch Level 9.
Other way, is create the tables and fields using DI API
But, my question is. When I develop one addon, or one UDO form that uses one set of user defined tables or used defined fields that where created by the first way (by wizard in B1), how I deploy this in other business one installation ? The package process will ensure the creation of this tables in another enviroment or I must implement the creation of user defined tables using DI API so that this code is called during the installation?
If in cases of addon develop I must use DI API to create user defined tables, How can I use my classes with this responsibility in package process ?
Thanks my friends.

Hi Renan,
You just need to put your logic in to the startup of your application, after you've established your connection to the UI API and DI API. All this will be triggered in the constructor of your main class.
namespace MyNamespace
public class MyAddon
bool runAddon = true;
bool initialised = false;
const string ADDON_NAME = "My Addon";
public static void Main()
        MyAddon addOn = new MyAddon();
        if(runAddon)
              System.Windows.Forms.Application.Run();
        else
         Application.Exit();
public MyAddon()
        // Connect to SBO session for UI
        if(!SetApplication()) runAddon = false;
private bool SetApplication()
        // Code goes in here to establish UI API and DI API connections
        // See SDK samples for examples
        // You should also define and filter the UI API events your addon will trap at this stage and create any menus
        // Call your routine to check if the required UDFs/UDTs exist on this company
        initialised = CheckInitialisation();
        if (!initialised)
           // AddOn not yet intialised on this company so prompt the user to run the intialisation process
          int iResponse = app.MessageBox("The " + ADDON_NAME + " addon will now create all required fields and tables."
                                         + System.Environment.NewLine + System.Environment.NewLine
                                         + "WARNING: It is strongly recommended that all other users are logged out of this company "
                                         + "before running this process. Are you sure you wish to continue?", 2, "Yes", "No", "");
          if (iResponse == 1) initialised = InitialiseAddOn(); // Call your routine to create the objects
        return true;
Kind Regards,

Best way to handle user scaling/offsetting of channels in a program?

I have a "Channel Configuration" page in my program that I setup. The user can turn channels on or off for data acquisition. The user saves the channels (global variable), and then goes back to a Main Menu.
Right now, if they want to add a channel or edit one, I'm having them go through MAX.
I can deal with them having to add channels through MAX but I'm thinking of just integrating my own scaling. Having the user enter UNITS/VOLT and OFFSET. Then transfer those values via a global variable array to where I need them. Is there a VI Function that handle this scale? Or do I just need to get the individual data and store them in arrays. Does that make sense?
I'm using SCC modules, PXI-6052E car
d, and Labview 6.1.
Thanks!
Lauren

If you use DAQmx (I can't remember if its supported in LV6.1) there is a property node where you can read and write scaling and offsets.
If you can't use DAQmx, your approach to store in arrays/config files will also work.

I'm not sure exactly what you are asking for, but it sounds like you may want a VI that applies your scale. If so, there are a couple of VIs that will accomplish this for you. They are called 1D Linear Evaluation.vi and 2D Linear Evaluation.vi. These VIs apply a specified offset and scale to either a 1D or 2D array of data points. These VIs are located in the following palette. Functions >> Analyze >> Mathematics >> Array Operations. As for transferring the offset and scale values from the global, you will have to do that manually. I hope this information helps.

Best way to handle SSD that comes with X201 (Samsung drive)

Hi,
I have recently restore the ssd back to factory state, installed my programs and made a backup. I'm not so satisfied with the performance right now so I just wonder if you guys can give me some suggestions how to handle the SSD? should i COMPLETELY FORMAT the SSD (somehow to clean it completely to restore its performance?) and then use the backup to write both partition (C and Recovery partition) back to the SSD or just Factory restore is enough?
thanks,
lan

Simply formatting the SDD does nothing on the performance side.
Almost every SSD supplier provides some utilities to "sanitize" the SDD.
So one should backup the SDD contents (acronis/gosth/paragon/whatever), then sanitize the SDD with the utility, then restore the image.
If the SDD supports the trim function the above procedure should be unnecessary or necessary only in rare cases.

APEX Pages - User Access List with NTLM

Hi,
I'm building several APEX Applications, and using NTLM as its Authentication Scheme. With this, the users won't have to type any user and password. And their user name stated in top right screen.
I'd like to build another application to administer users of all created APEX Applications. So I'd like to build 3 tables:
1. users (hold user name, and user data)
2. pages (hold APEX Applications pages)
3. access_list (hold combined data of users and pages and access flag)
The last table will give me an SQL that can be used to create page level Authorization Scheme.
The problem is:
I cannot find a way to get a list of user ids to pre-populated the table users. Is there a way that an administrator user use an LOV of all NTLM user instead of typing domain\user to this application? OR is there a better and elegant way to create User Access List with NTLM.
Your helps will really help me, and thanks in advance.
Regards,
Aulia

This is kind of a followup to Scott's post. Instead of using your own tables to map user accounts to permissions etc, why not simply use LDAP to query the NT domain global catalog?
You can tell what users are members of particular AD groups and control access to functions based on AD group membership. Then you would only need one table that maps Apex functionality to AD groups.
That's what we do. Our account management people add users to different security groups and they get access to our apex app based on those groups. The type of access is controlled by the group to which they belong.
If you try to capture a list of all users, you'll be constantly trying to keep your list of users in sync with your AD/NTLM accounts.
Or I guess you could simply use LDAP queries inside the database to get a list of ALL your users in a nightly batch. Wouldn't help for people added in the middle of the day, but maybe that doesn't happen often in your company.
I have posted code on using Active Directory LDAP with dbms_ldap inside the database. Shouldn't be too much trouble to modify that code to scan your directory for users every night. Search for "dbms_ldap" in this forum.

Best way to handle mobile accounts with large itunes/photo libraries

What is the best way to handle mobile accounts, but not syncing itunes/photos libraries?
I have a time capsule so I can move itunes and photos libraries for each user if need be.
Thanks!

Hi,
I've done a great deal of work with mobile accounts in Snow Leopard and I'm now having a "play" with Lion. To be honest you have to sit down and think about why you need mobile accounts.
If your user only uses one computer then your safer having a local account backed up by a network Time Machine, this avoids the many many woes that the Servers FileSyncAgent brings to the table.
If your users are going to be accessing multiple computers on the network and leaving the network then a mobile account is good for providing a uniform user experience and access to files etc. However, your users will have to make a choice as to whether they want their iPhoto libraries on one Local machine (backed up by Time Machine) or whether they want their library to be hosted on the server and not part of the Mobile Home Sync schedule (adding ~/Pictures to the excluded items on the home sync settings).
With the latter, users will be able to access their iPhoto libraries on any computer when they are within the network (as it's accessed from the users server home folder).
With the first option the user would have their iPhoto library on one computer (say the laptop they used the most) but then would not be able to access it from other computers they log on to.
iPhoto libraries are a pain, and I'm working hard to come up with a workaround. If your users moved over to using Apeture then you could include the aperture library as part of the home sync thanks to Deeport (http://deepport.net/archives/os-x-portable-home-directories-and-syncing-flaw-wit h-bundles/)
He does suggest that the same would work with IPhoto libraries - but it doesn't for a number of mysterious reasons regarding how the OS recognizes thie iPhoto bundle (it does so differently compared to Apeture).
Hope this helps...

Best way to pre-populate material variable with values for users

Hi, I have a requirement to prepopulate a material variable with about 5 materials and that is the materials that will default when the query is called. The users would also need the ability to change those values.
My thought is to create a User-exit variable that derives the values from a user maintained table (infoobject).
Does anyone else have any suggestions or ideas on the best way to handle this?

I don't know if there is a best solution...
Infoobject
With this option you have to create a new infoobject (ZMATERIAL) without attribute (you need only a list material codes) and then to set the authorization profile for the user in order to manage the content.
The creation of an infoobject corresponds to a table creation, but you don't need any other specific options that belong to the infooject (as technical object)...
Table
With this option you have to create a Z table with only one field and then to allow the maintenance of the table by SM30....
In the ending, if you want to be a purist use the table, otherwise use an infoobject (but there are no significant differences !
Bye,

I recently added my old mac hard drive to a new macbook with an SSD as my main OSX drive. I am having trouble with permissions in viewing my old hard drive. What is the best way to get complete access to my old hd installed in my new Macbook?

I recently added my old mac hard drive to a new macbook with an SSD as my main OSX drive. I am having trouble with permissions in viewing my old hard drive, when I save a permission when I reboot the full access is changed again . What is the best way to get complete access to my old hd installed in my new Macbook?

Open the Get Info window for the old drive. Click the Lock icon on the bottom of that window and type in your password. In the permissions area click the Plus sign ( + ) and Add your Username to it and set it to Read & Write. Close that window. you should now have full access to all the files.

Best Ways to Handle Multiple Users

First post....heres my question. Can anyone help me determine the best way to handle multiple users in itunes? Some Background:
My family shares one computer. We have on folder on the hard drive where we keep all our music files. I got an ipod and itunes and added some of the music to itunes and have pretty much used itunes for my music.
Now my girlfriend got an ipod and I am hoping to somehow keep her music away from mine so to speak. So that I can keep synching my ipod without adding a bunch of music I dont want.
Is there a way to handle this? So thankfull for any help!

There is an apple article on this here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300432
It sounds as though method 1 would be best for you.
Also see how to keep the music files in one place to avoid duplication:

Can not assign custom access level with a user login

Hi,
I am using Business objects XiR3. When I am loging in with a user having full control access and then I select a folder added a principal from user sercurity and when I am trying to add custom access level it gave me error
An error occurred at the server during security batch commit: Request 0 of type 38 failed with server error : You do not have sufficient rights to make the requested security changes.
it allow me to give access to standard access levels. also when I tried to assign custom access level with administrator user, it assigns custom access level to a principal without error.
Can any body tell me what I am doing wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Rajendra

Hi Rajendra,
You have to make sure that the user group has the right 'Use access level for security assignment' assigned as granted on the access level you created. You can find this right under System / Access Level. That should do the trick!

(workflow question) - What is the best way to handle audio in a large Premiere project?

Hey all,
This might probably be suitable for any version of Premiere, but just in case, I use CS4 (Master Collection)
I am wrestling in my brain about the best way to handle audio in my project to cut down on the time I am working on it.
This project I just finished was a 10 minute video for a customer shot on miniDV (HVX-200) cut down from 3 hours of tape.
I edited my whole project down to what looked good, and then I decided I needed to clean up all the Audio using Soundbooth, So I had to go in clip by clip, using the Edit in SoundBooth --> Render and Replace method on every clip. I couldn't find a way to batch edit any audio in Soundbooth.
For every clip, I performed similar actions---
1) both tracks of audio were recorded with 2 different microphones (2 mono tracks), so I needed only audio from 1 track - I used SB to cut and paste the good track over the other track.
2) amplified the audio
3) cleaned up the background noise with the noise filter
I am sure there has to be a better workflow option than what I just did (going clip by clip), Can someone give me some advice on how best to handle audio in a situation like this?
Should I have just rendered out new audio for the whole tape I was using, and then edit from that?
Should I have rendered out the audio after I edited the clips into one long track and performed the actions I needed on it? or something entirely different? It was a very slow, tedious process.
Thanks,
Aza

Hi, Aza.
Given that my background is audio and I'm just coming into the brave new world of visual bits and bytes, I would second Hunt's recommendation regarding exporting the entire video's audio as one wav file, working on it, and then reimporting. I do this as one of the last stages, when I know I have the editing done, with an ear towards consistency from beginning to end.
One of the benefits of this approach is that you can manage all audio in the same context. For example, if you want to normalize, compress or limit your audio, doing it a clip at a time will make it difficult for you to match levels consistently or find a compression setting that works smoothly across the board. It's likely that there will instead be subtle or obvious differences between each clip you worked on.
When all your audio is in one file you can, for instance, look at the entire wave form, see that limiting to -6 db would trim off most of the unnecessary peaks, triim it down, and then normalize it all. You may still have to do some tweaking here and there, but it gets you much farther down the road, much more easily.Same goes for reverb, EQ or other effects where you want the same feel throughout the entire video.
Hope this helps,
Chris

Best way to handle multiple currencies

I have a requirement that users should be able to report against an OLAP cube in a currency of their choice (from a list of about 20) and was wondering what the best way to handle this might be.
One option would be to have a currency dimension containing the list of valid currencies and then to pre-calculate measures in each of the currencies and store them in the cube. However the downside of this is that the resultant cube would be 20 times larger than a cube in a single currency, take longer to maintain etc. I could of course partition the cube by currency to improve reporting performance since users would only report in one currency at a time.
Another alternative would be to dynamically calculate the measures based on exchange rates - I guess this could either be done in the cube itself or as part of the reporting code. However since exchange rates are daily, this would obvioulsy prevent me from aggregating data up the time dimension (all measures are at the day level).
Is there any standard way of doing this and what are the pro's and con's?
Thanks,
Chris

Sorry - messed up - I should have posted this in the OLAP forum.....
