Best way to make a rusultset available for ...

processing?
If I have a method that returns a resultset and in my jsp I do this:
String strSQL = "SELECT * FROM someTable WHERE field = '"+someValue+"'";
methodsClass mc = new methodsClass();
ResultSet objRS = getRS(strSQL);
//If I know that the objRS will only return 1 record, what is the best
//way to initialize the objRS?
while(objRS.next()){.....}
//OR
if(!objRS.last()){....}
//OR Some other way?
//Or does it really matter??TIA!!

if(objRS.first()) {
... // set to first element (if exists)

What is the best way to make PSD into HTML for emails

What is the best way to make PSDs into HTML for emails? Will the new feature in Dreamweaver work for emails as well? I am using Cheetah mail, but I need to be able to turn PSDs into HTML so I can use it in Cheetah mail. I have a general idea of how to do this, but I'm stumped about where to begin.

Use PShop for images only. Use DW to create your tables and inline CSS styles.
Many e-mail clients do not show images for security reasons. So graphics heavy e-mails are not an optimal way to communicate with your mailing list.

Best way to make animation w/stills for intro?

Kind of like the template intro movies in the themes, I want to cut up my own photo and have pieces move around and off screen. For example, I want a photo to split in half right up the middle and have each half go off screen in opposite directions. There is no effect for this and I don't see that the Ken Burns effect does this in iPhoto. Flash doesn't import into iMovie, so that's out. I THINK Quicktime Pro does it, but I haven't bought that yet. I can make an animated gif in imageready, with tweening, which looks good enough but won't import into iMovie either. Any suggestions??

QuickTime can do .swf files. They must be "published" as version 5, or lower, in order to work with QT.
QT Pro can "export" the .swf "movie" (sounds don't export from muxed track files) to DV Stream (.dv) the editing format of iMovie.
So. iMovie can do Flash.

Best way to make a slideshow for a wedding?

I am trying to make a slideshow for a wedding. What is the best way to make this?

Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. Select Size = Medium or Large.
Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailier like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com. Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

What is the best way to make a list of addresses for envelopes or labels? Address book, numbers or pages?

What is the best way to make a list of addresses for envelopes and labels? Address book, Pages or Numbers?

I liek your idea of having multiple images in a grid. I think
that would be the best bet as you mentioned. Having one big picture
would be hard to distinguish the sub-areas with mouse coordinates.
I think checking the coordinates for the mouse would be very
tedious because I would have to check for the left boundary, the
right, top, and bottom for each sub-area!
What do you mean by using button components and reskinning.
Is this simply using buttons and changing the way they look? I'm
just trying to save time and memory, because if I had a 10 by 10
grid, thats a hundred buttons. Wouldn't that slow down the machine
alot? And for that matter wouldn't having a grid of 10 by 10 images
also by the same deal?
Thanks for the input, I'm just trying to find the most
efficient way to do it.

The best way to make proxy files for editing?

Hi,
What is the best way to create proxy files for editing? I'm thinking Apple ProRes 422 (Proxy). The original material is DVCPRO HD 1080i50, shot on Panasonic P2 cards, and copied on to hard drives. But as there is about 400 hours of it, I desperately need to find a clever way to make smaller proxy files for editing.
I would also like to make the proxies at a smaller resolution than 1080i for the editing process.
I guess it's possible to import the media and then batch export it to the proxy format, but Is there a better way?

I'm not able to ingest the material directly from the P2-folders as ProRes 422 (Proxy). No matter how much I change the import settings in "Log and transfer", it still ingests as DVCPRO HD 1080i50.
Correct. DVCPRO HD P2 can only come in as DVCPRO HD. You can't transcode it. AVCIntra P2 is what you can bring in as ProRes. (Sorry Tom).
I can of course transcode it form there to the proxy format and delete the ingested files,
Why? Why do that? You have ingested all the files, right? You ALREADY HAVE THEM...right? Why not work with them? You obviously have the room (20TB). Why import all this, then now take the days it would require to make proxies?
Making the ProRes-proxies directly from the P2-material seems more logical, or isn't it?
DVCPRO HD P2 cannot come in as anything else, so the offline/online workflow for them doesn't work unless you import it all, then transcode to a smaller format...but then need to keep the originals online to relink to when you are done. If you wanted to do an offline/online, you needed to research this better...or test it...before you shot your hundreds of hours only to find that what you want to do won't work.

The Best Way to make your iPad battery last the longest!

After checking many sources and also discussions here -- this is one article that pretty much sums up the best way to make your iPad battery last the longest!
It basically comes down to JUST ONE THING (mainly) -- and that is simply REDUCING YOUR CHARGE CYCLE COUNT! And how do you do that? Well, very simply KEEP IT PLUGGED IN as much as possible. And then, doing what Apple says by doing just one full discharge - once a month.
There are about 1000 charge cycles available for the iPad, at which point you should have 80% of the battery life left. SO ... Anything you do to slow down getting to that 1000 charge cycles, makes your iPad battery last longer. Keeping it plugged in "all the time" (or, as much as possible - since it is a portable object) slows down the process of getting to that "lessening of battery capacity". It's simply all about "charge cycles" - which then translates into "reduced battery capacity".
Here's an article to pay close attention to:

What is the best way to make a DVD from iMovie

What is the best way to make a DVD from iMovie?
I am using iMovie 06 (Naturally) with iDVD 08. I have always used;
iMovie 06, File > Share to iDVD 08. And got pretty good results.
Some say the best way is to quit iMovie 06, open iDVD and import the movie from the Media button.
I have tried both methods in the results look the same. I'm interested in getting the very best quality possible.

You likely have one of the most expensive media converter boxes on the market today.
But does it work well with most macs? (my guess is that it does). But more specifically can it "handshake" with an intel based mac? I personally haven't tried it.
But you may want to read this for yourself if you haven't already:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1179361&tstart=2362
Assuming it works then the best format is .dv which this unit will support apparently.

How to make saved IR available for all users

Hi,
I've created IR and saved it to several tabs based on search conditions.
But they're only visible for developers.
How to make these tabs available for all end-users ?
Does version 4.0 support this option ?
Thank you!

Hi
At present this feature is not included, although I believe it may be in 4.0. Many people have provided workarounds for this. None of which I have tried. I cannot find the original thread but here is a solution from a chap called Ruud
>
One way to share your saved reports with others is to 'Publish' your report settings to a few intermediate tables in your application and have other users 'Import' your settings from there. The reason for using intermediate tables is so that not all your saved reports need to be 'visible' to other users (only those that you've chosen to publish).
Basically you have available the following views and package calls that any APEX user can access:-
- flows_030100.apex_application_pages (all application pages)
- flows_030100.apex_application_page_ir_rpt (all saved reports - inclusing defaults and all user saved reports)
- flows_030100.apex_application_page_ir_cond (the associated conditions/filters for above saved reports)
- wwv_flow_api.create_worksheet_rpt (package procedure that creates a new saved report)
- wwv_flow_api.create_worksheet_condition (package procedure that creates a condition/filter for above saved report)
The way I've done it is that I've created 2 tables in my application schema that are straightforward clones of the 2 above views.
CREATE TABLE user_report_settings AS SELECT * FROM flows_030100.apex_application_page_ir_rpt;
CREATE TABLE user_report_conditions AS SELECT * FROM flows_030100.apex_application_page_ir_cond;
( NB. I deleted any contents that may have come across to make sure we start with a clean slate. )
These two tables will act as my 'repository'.
To simplify matters I've also created 2 views that look at the same APEX views.
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW v_report_settings AS
SELECT r.*
p.page_name
FROM flows_030100.apex_application_page_ir_rpt r,
flows_030100.apex_application_pages p
WHERE UPPER ( r.application_name ) = <Your App Name>
AND r.application_user 'APXWS_DEFAULT'
AND r.session_id IS NULL
AND p.application_id = r.application_id
AND p.page_id = r.page_id;
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW v_report_conditions AS
SELECT r.*
p.page_name
FROM flows_030100.apex_application_page_ir_cond r,
flows_030100.apex_application_pages p
WHERE UPPER ( r.application_name ) = <Your App Name>
AND r.application_user 'APXWS_DEFAULT'
AND p.application_id = r.application_id
AND p.page_id = r.page_id;
I then built 2 screens:-
1) Publish Report Settings
This shows 2 report regions:-
- Region 1 - Shows a list of all your saved reports from V_REPORT_SETTINGS (filtered to only show yours)
SELECT apex_item.checkbox ( 1, report_id ) " ",
page_name,
report_name
FROM v_report_settings
WHERE application_user = :APP_USER
AND ( page_id = :P27_REPORT OR :P27_REPORT = 0 )
ORDER BY page_name,
report_name
Each row has a checkbox to select the required settings to publish.
The region has a button called PUBLISH (with associated process) that when pressed will copy the settings from
V_REPORT_SETTINGS (and V_REPORT_CONDITIONS) into USER_REPORT_SETTINGS (and USER_REPORT_CONDITIONS).
- Region 2 - Shows a list of already published reports in table USER_REPORT_SETTINGS (again filtered for your user)
SELECT apex_item.checkbox ( 10, s.report_id ) " ",
m.label,
s.report_name
FROM user_report_settings s,
menu m
WHERE m.page_no = s.page_id
AND s.application_user = :APP_USER
AND ( s.page_id = :P27_REPORT OR :P27_REPORT = 0 )
ORDER BY m.label,
s.report_name
Each row has a checkbox to select a setting that you would like to delete from the repository.
The region has a button called DELETE (with associated process) that when pressed will remove the selected
rows from USER_REPORT_SETTINGS (and USER_REPORT_CONDITIONS).
NB: P27_REPORT is a "Select List With Submit" to filter the required report page first.
Table MENU is my application menu table where I store my menu/pages info.
2) Import Report Settings
This again shows 2 report regions:-
- Region 1 - Shows a list of all published reports in table USER_REPORT_SETTINGS (filtered to show only other users saved reports)
SELECT apex_item.checkbox ( 1, s.report_id ) " ",
m.label,
s.report_name,
s.application_user
FROM user_report_settings s,
menu m
WHERE m.page_no = s.page_id
AND s.application_user :APP_USER
AND ( s.page_id = :P28_REPORT OR :P28_REPORT = 0 )
ORDER BY m.label,
s.report_name,
s.application_user
Each row has a checkbox to select the setting(s) that you would like to import from the repository.
The region has one button called IMPORT that when pressed will import the selected settings.
It does this by using the 2 above mentioned package procedure to create a new saved report for you
with the information form the repository. Be careful to match the right column with the right procedure
parameter and to 'reverse' any DECODEs that the view has.
- Region 2 - Shows a list of all your saved reports from V_REPORT_SETTINGS (filtered to only show yours)
SELECT page_name,
report_name
FROM v_report_settings
WHERE application_user = :APP_USER
AND ( page_id = :P28_REPORT OR :P28_REPORT = 0 )
ORDER BY page_name,
report_name
This is only needed to give you some feedback as to whether the import succeeded.
A few proviso's:-
a) I'm sure there's a better way to do all this but this works for me :-)
b) This does not work for Computations! I have not found an API call to create computations.
They will simply not come across into the repository.
c) If you import the same settings twice I've made it so that the name is suffixed with (2), (3) etc.
I did not find a way to update existing report settings. You can only create new ones.
d) Make sure you refer to your saved reports by name, not ID, when matching APEX stored reports and the
reports in your repository as the ID numbers may change if you re-import an application or if you
auto-generate your screens/reports (as I do).
Ruud
>
To me this is a bit too much of a hack and I personally wouldn't implement it - it's just an example to show it can be done.
Also if you look here in the help in APEX Home > Adding Application Components > Creating Reports > Editing Interactive Reports
...and go to the last paragraph, you can embed predicates in the URL.

Best way to make a Constant Power Load

What would be the best way to make a load that always draws the same amount of power whatever the voltage on it. For exemple, an load would draw 100 mA at 24 VDC, 150 mA at 18 VDC and 200 mA at 12 VDC. All I found is to use Nonlinear Dependant source.
Any easier way to do this? Thanks.

Sorry about the file mix up, I was anxious to get it posted for you that I failed to realize you were using a different version.
As far as the last "amplifier" in your Leaky Feeder design, I actually hooked it up to the 24VDC supply on the left and this was a direct connect before the first resistor. I realize this is not what would be ideal for your application as probably you have only a certain place in the Leaker Feeder to tap off from. I would suppose this would be going into a different entry way off the main entry at an intersection so I do not know how my adjusting the placing of this would effect the results because it seems to me by doing this I have bypassed a bunch resistance in the Feeder cable itself (if that is what the resistors represent) and also bypassed a number of amplification stages in the process as well.
I will post a picture of my circuit for you to examine and try in Version 9. This is the only thing I could come up with to where the power draw was the same no matter what the voltage input was. The only thing I can see as a drawback is that with this circuit the current remains constant but the voltage fluctuates. If I use a 24V regualtor and drop the input voltage to 12V the current remains at approx 118ma but the voltage drops to 12V when I plug it into your circuit.. I will let you try it and see what you may be able to do with it.

Best way to start a new catalog for 2009 ?

Hi,
What's the best way to start a new catalog for the new year, with all the keywords and all the presets of the modules (without having to export all the folders) of previous catalog 2008 ?
Thanks,
Dominique

Well there is a cost too in not being able to find all your images in a single step, and inconsistencies soon develop - eg a keyword is plural in one catalogue, singular in another. Speed or stability issues are not simply related to catalogue size, and I've seen decently-performing catalogues 50% bigger than yours (as well as slow ones of a few hundred images). Have you optimized the catalogue recently?
But if you think it's a good idea to fragment control of your picture collection.... Presets will be carried over to a new catalogue as they belong to the machine (unless you have the save with catalogue preference turned on). Keywords can be moved via the Metadata > Export and Import Keywords command. If you have lots of collections and smart collections, then maybe make a copy of your existing catalogue and then remove all the items from it - making sure you don't trash them of course.

What is the best way to make a clickable grid

What would be the best way to make a clickable area that can
differentiate between discrete parts of the area when clicked on.
In other words, instead a having multiple buttons in a row that the
user can click on, is there a way to have an area that has lines to
distinguish the different areas(buttons) but that acts as though
there were multiple consecutive buttons?
For example, if I wanted to graphically simulate the buttons
on a phone but without using buttons. Instead use some kind of grid
or area that is divided into multiple sub areas that can
distinguish the discrete positions (each button on the phone, or
sub-area).
Thank you,
Salchichasa

I liek your idea of having multiple images in a grid. I think
that would be the best bet as you mentioned. Having one big picture

What is best way to make disk backup of CS5 downloaded installation?

Hi,
We purchased the downloadable version of the CS5 Production Premium installer rather than waiting 2 weeks to receive it in box form.
What do you suggest is the best way to make a backup of the downloaded installers, which total about 13.8 gigs? I was thinking of putting the main one on a dual layer DVD-R but the biggest file is 9.23 gb's, nearly a gig over the data limit for dual layer disks. Is it possible to use Toast to split a disk image over multiple files or use Apple Disk Utility to compress the .dmg even further to fit? Or perhaps is the easiest way to just copy it over to a USB thumb drive?
I know Adobe allows you to re-download the software whenever needed, but it would be more handy for us to have a backup here rather than wait for another really long download...
Suggestions?
Thanks!

You can buy a set of backup disks from Adobe for a nominal fee. You might want to give them a call and ask about it.
Otherwise, just back it all up to an external drive.
