Best way to transform an object into a circle?

Let's say I have a long rectangle I want to warp into a circle, what would be the best way to go about doing this?

Drag the rectangle into the Brushes palette.
In the resulting dialog, define an Art Brush.
Draw a circle.
Apply the Art Brush to the circle.

Best way to import all objects into work repository located on a new master respository

Hi,
We have two separate master repositories, one for all development work repositories (Development, ST, UAT, IAT), and one for Production.
What would be the best approach to export and import all objects from the Dev Repository into the Prod Work Repository located on the Prod Master Repository.
Internal Ids of all work repositories are different.
We have tried putting everything into a solution and exporting that, but that did not work when we tried to import it.
We successfully exported and imported a single scenario, however this is not very practical as we have over 500 scenarios.
All suggestions welcome,
Thanks,
Nic

Thanks,
But we want to keep Dev Work Repositories separate to Prod Work Repositories on their respective Master Repositories.
So our end result will have:
1) All Development Work Repositories located in the Development Master Repository on the Development server.
2) The Production Work Repository located on the Production Master Repository on the Production Server.
3) The ability to update a Solution or similar in Development with all changes to any objects.
4) The ability to import the Solution into the Prod Work Repo on the Prod Master Repo and execute via a load plan.
Is this possible?

Best way to do a Object which holds a collection of another object type.

How do I make this work and what is the best to index the index the items stored for fastest retrieval.

Best way to do a Object which holds a collection of another object type. The best place for data in a database is.. no real surprise.. in tables. If that data is temporary of nature, global temporary tables cater for that.
Storing/caching data using PL/SQL requires very expensive private process memory (PGA) from the server. This does not scale.
I'm writing a caching object to store another object. Irrespective of how l33t your haxor skillz are, you will not be able to code as a sophisticated, performant and scalable PL/SQL data cache, as what already exists (as the database buffer cache) in Oracle.
The cache is only valid for a session, so I want a store the data in a nested table.Not sure how you take one (session local data) to mean the other (oh, let's use a nested table).
Session local data can be done using PL/SQL static variables. Can be done using name-value pairs residing in a context (Oracle namespace). Can be done using a global temporary table.
The choice is dependent on the requirements that need to be addressed. However, the term +"caching+" has very specific connotations that say that a global temporary table is likely the best suited candidate.

What is the best way to turn line art into a 3D image in Illustrator? Thanks for your help.

What is the best way to turn line art into a 3D image in Illustrator? Thanks for your help.

What version of Illustrator? What do you mean by "Line Art"? What do you mean by "3d image"? Post images showing your starting artwork and an example of what you are trying to achieve.
If you have Illustrator 12 or higher you can extrude or lathe a simple group or path using Effects > 3D > [Pick one]. You must start with vector data, not a placed raster image. You are very limited in what you can do, and you cannot model multiple objects within one 3D world. Each object you extrude/revolve/rotate is its own world, with its own perspective and camera. You can also make any art into a Symbol, then map that symbol onto any 3D surface you create. The results are, at best, acceptable, and often total garbage.

Best way to make a object details page

I have a dataTable, built with a sessionBean List. We have to make a link "show detail" in each row, and redirect to a new jsp showing selected row object details.
Whats the best way to retrive the object selected?
a commandLink with param (haschcode value) and search in list isn`t possible because is a sessionBean..
I have some ideas but not with JSF....
thanks

1) Bind h:dataTable to an UIData property in main backing bean.
2) Add a h:commandButton or h:commandLink to a column and bind it with an action method in main backing bean.
3) In the main backing bean action method simply retrieve the row object byRowObject selectedRowObject = (RowObject) uiDataProperty.getRowData();and navigate to some display details page.
4) In the display details page just access the data by #{mainManagedBean.selectedRowObject.someProperty} and so on.
Detailed examples can be found here: [http://balusc.blogspot.com/2006/06/using-datatables.html].

I want to transform an object into a XML-String

Hallo,
in my BSP I want to transform an object into a xml string to set a server side cookie.
Therefore my code is:
DATA:
    lv_xml      TYPE string,
    lv_username TYPE string.
model    ?= get_model( model_id = 'main' ).
lv_username = sy-uname.
Call TRANSFORMATION id SOURCE o = model RESULT XML lv_xml.
cl_bsp_server_side_cookie=>set_server_cookie(
        name                  = 'MODEL'
        application_name      = runtime->application_name
        application_namespace = runtime->application_namespace
        username              = lv_username
        session_id            = runtime->session_id
        data_value            = lv_xml
        data_name             = 'MODEL'
        expiry_time_rel       = 3600 ).
But after the command "Call Transformation" the xml-string doesn't contain all the data of my object, only this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>#<asx:abap xmlns:asx="http://www.sap.com/abapxml" version="1.0"><asx:values><O href="#o19"/></asx:values><asx:heap xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:abap="http://www.sap.com/abapxml/types/built-in" xmlns:cls="http://www.sap.com/abapxml/classes/global" xmlns:dic="http://www.sap.com/abapxml/types/dictionary"> <cls:ZCL_M_ESS_TRV_OVW id="o19"/

What is wrong?

Best way to Transform one XML to another XML using SSIS

I am using Altova Mapforce tool to transform one XML into another XML, but now we are planning to use any other best way of using XSLT transformation. Could you guys shed me some light on different approaches and which one would be best based on time and
cost constraint.
In Altova Map force Tool, due to below reasons we wanted to avoid that,
Resource cannot work parallely in single XSLT
Maintanence is very difficult
Licensed version of tool
When the XML size grows, new resourse are feeling difficult to edit the XSLT etc.,
Related to .net approaches would be best.
Can we create XSLT by using SSIS to transfrom one xml into another xml format.
In .net code we can do, but feel that it is time consuming due to large size of XML.
Any other best way for handling XSLT transformation or any tool

XSLT can be applied to an XML file fed as a source, but it does not resolve #1. I by the way do not understand this point, technically.
For SSIS to go live in prod you need to deplete a SQL Server license (CPU + CALs).
The time to transform in SSIS will be equal to doing in .net code as the whole SSIS is coded in .Net, too.
Here, in this section of the forum we may not have the needed expertise in XSLT or XML transformations.
In my IT life, XML transformations were done in Java if on a *NIX box. On Windows a C# .net app webservice did it. The most interesting implementation, and if you are a heavy users of XML is to use a dedicated database as Base X, it has an XLSLT transform

Best way to populate an object

This is more of a coding convention question. I was wondering what is the best or industry standard way to populate an object.
If there's a method that returns an object is it better to pass an empty object (just declared) into the method, have the method populate the object and then just use the object
e.g. Object foo;
populateObject(foo);
foo.getProperty();
or
have the method return a newly populated object
e.g. Object foo = populateObject();
foo.getProperty();
thanks

It's better to pass in an object as an argument when performance is important. You can pass in the same object instead of creating new objects for each call to getProperty().
It's better to return a newly populated object when the caller does not know what class of object will be returned. The getProperty() method could return a subclass of Object.
As is often the case, the answer is: it depends.

Best way to include javascript-script into different struts-pages

Hi,
I'm running a struts-based webapplication using the tiles-templates for my layout. Now I have to use some javascript-code for a pop-up window and another javascript for tracing on multiple pages but in different combinations. As I do n't want to copy-paste it on every page, but put it on a single place for better maintenance I'm wondering what would be the best way to do this together with the struts-logic.
I thought about the following options:
1.) Using the "template:put" feature like this:
<template:put name='js' content="/myJavascripts.jsp"> I don't think this would be a good option, as I always have to include the whole javascript and I cannot distinguish between my two different javascripts
2.) Using the template:insert feature like this:
<template:insert template="/myJavascripts.jsp"/>. This is a lot better, as I can split my two javascripts into two different files and can always decide, which one to include with the template:insert tag. But I'm not sure, if this is conforming with the struts-concept, as I do not use any template:put or template:set tags
3.) Using simple jsp:include or <%@ include ... %> tags.
This would be the easiest way to include my pages with <%@ include file='/myJavascripts.jsp' %>. Same advantages like template:insert but I don't need the additionally features of the template:insert-tag. But still the same question: is this the concept of struts? Or will I become any difficulties with this concept later??
Any recommendations or further ideas are greatly appriciated.
Thanx for your help

Best way to MouseDrag multiple objects around a scene.

So I am having a little trouble trying to drag 3 Box's in a scene.
Originally I had it set up where each was relocated to an x,y translated Z and set to a HWD. Then I figured I would, instead of the mouse click on the box itself, be in the root. From there I would look through all of the root.getChildren() then made that see if it contained the x,y position.
Then from knowing which of my root Children I clicked I did root.getChildren.get(current).setOnDragged to figure out which one was dragged.
The code itself worked except for finding which box I was on.
The issue I find is that I onyl have getX, getSceneX, and getScreenX. X, and SceneX produce the same value, and ScreenX is useless. I tried then to do event.getX() - root.getLayoutX() to make the contains function to work, but it wasn't working and would require me to change up more things. getLayoutX() was = 0 since I didn't set the root location, only the locations of the box's.
From there I kept wondering if there was a better way. Then I thought maybe to loop through every element in my root or in an arrayList(Which is what I used, but realized the root.getchildren should work like the original) but the problem is it keeps only registering the last one in the list, so it just loops and that's it.
So what I want to know is, what would be the best way to figure out what object I'm in?
Originally I use the contains(Swing) but Swing is different, and now especially since we can register mouseEvents to each node, shouldn't we know exactly which one we are on, just by looping through each of them? I figure that's easier than having to check every single mouse position contained within, especially if I have 10000 things to check?

I slightly modified your code for 3D.

Best way to publish Edge files into html page?

Ok,
So im looking for the best way to add my edge files into my html page.
I want to make it easy to integrate edge with dreamweaver html files, e.g if I change anything in my edge project and publish it I dont need to transfer the html over to my page again.
I thought the best way to do this was put all the edge files into there own folder within my sites_files folder and then use iframe. However when I did this, I can not figure out how to use CSS to style the iframe.
this is what I have tried
<iframe id="test" src="mackbyte1_files/animation/power-out-setup/power-out-preview.html" frameborder="0" height="400px" width="940px" scrolling="no" >Your browser does not support this animation. Get a real browses made for the 21st century! We recommend Chrome or Firefox...</iframe>
I have tried using a ID for the iframe which didnt work.
Without the iframe my animation is centred in the screen from the CSS with edge html e.g
.edgeLoad-power-out-preview {
          visibility:hidden;
                    #Stage {
          height: 400px;
          width: 940px;
          margin-left: auto;
          margin-right: auto;
          border-radius: 7px;
          background-color: #CCC;
I have given up and just manully copy/paste the html into the page I want it in. this works fine however, as stated if i make changes to my animation i have to amend the html which is a little annyoying.
Is there a fix?
Thanks in advanced

What is the best way to put various songs into one album?

I have been adding album information and album artwork within iTunes to take advantage of cover flow, but i have a lot of songs in my music library that are "stand alone" songs - it is the only song from that artist. I want to put all of these songs together in one album, so all of my miscellaneous rock songs will be put into a Rock Music album or file. I want to do this to eliminate all of the grey boxes within cover flow for all of these songs. When i give the files all the same album name (Rock Music) and album artist (Various Artists) it still does not put them all together within iTunes. It will do it for some, but not all.
What is the best way to put all of these miscellaneous songs into the same album?

Try marking all the tracks as part of a compilation. Click on the first track in your list, hold down the shift key and click on the last. Right click anywhere in the selection and choose Get Info, when you are asked if you want to edit multiple items say yes. Change compilation at the bottom of the window to Yes.

The best way to delete an object
