Bug with min function applied to an attribute?

Does anyone know if there is a bug with the minimum function when it is applied to an attribute?
I have Accounts, Date, Sales Type and volume in my request.
I have applied min(Date) in the fx of the Date column.
My query is hitting the YAGO table even though non of the columns i am using is mapped onto a YAGO table.
As a test I've removed the min function frem the Date column and applied it to the Account column.
Again my query hits the YAGO table.
Does anyone know if it is a bug or can someone propose a workaround?
I am using OBIEE version 10.1.3.4.1090414.1922 on Windows XP.

Hi,
You can create a separate report and refer it into the column of main report by 'Filter based on results of another request'
This should resolve
Hope this helps

Shading pattern bug with stitching functions

I am using Acrobat Professional 7 for Windows, but I don't believe the situation has changed in Acrobat 9.
I have a simple hand-crafted pdf that is designed to test shading patterns with extend regions when used with stitching (Type 3) functions. These behave according to the spec in most cases, but there is a special case where they don't. I've included the job at the end of this message.
The special case is where a Bounds entry is identical to one of the Domain values. The spec doesn't say what should happen for this case, but I might expect either the end child function would be ignored, or that it is used but the appropriate colour would be evaluated using it and applied to the extend region.
What in fact happens, is that the extend regions have their colour derived from evaluating 0 or 1 through the end child functions. This is true regardless of whether the shading domain includes zero. But, these are used the wrong way round.
This might seem like a specialised case that would never appear in the field from real world application, but that is not the case. I have dozens of such jobs from customers displaying exactly this problem with varying workarounds by producers such as (Agfa Apogee Normalizer), (Acrobat Distiller 6.0 $Windows$), (Adobe PDF library 7.77), (Creo Normalizer JTP ver. 3.1.6), (Adobe PDF Library 8.0).
In more detail, the job has one radial shading pattern using a stitching function with 6 child functions. The first child function coincides with the function domain, as do the last two child functions. The domain of the shading is a subset of the stitching function, arranged so that the end child functions should never be evaluated.
I believe the whole of the shading should be a solid cyan because the domain is 0.3 to 0.7. Only one of the child functions covers this range which is solid cyan. Acrobat displays the inner extended region as black which can only be explained by pushing 1 through the first child function, and the outer extended region is yellow which can only be explained by pushing 0 through the final child function.
I believe Acrobat should be using the shading domain limits for the extend regions. Instead, it is using 0 and 1. But worse, the values are being used the wrong way round.
This is my hand-crafted job for testing shading patterns with Type 3 functions. The job is hand crafted, and I haven't gone to the trouble of setting the xref table or setting the stream lengths, but Acrobat does repair the file and it behaves the same as other, real-world, jobs

Philip, thankyou for offering to look at this.
I have attached 'FunctionType 3 boundary.pdf' which was the original file I attempted to post. The file 'AcrOut Domain 0_3-0_7.png' makes it clear what I am seeing in Acrobat. I would also like to augment my original post a little to point out incompatibilities between Acrobat and CPSI.
1. From my PoV, compatibility between Acrobat and CPSI is important, so I've also attached a file that contains equivalent PostScript. On my Ricoh Aficio with CPSI (3016.203) inside it, the job is rendered in solid cyan as I would expect given that the domain of the shading is restricted to [0.3 0.7].
2. If the jobs are changed to make the shading domain [0 1] instead of [0.3 0.7], Acrobat displays a green ring (expected), and the inner extend region is now red (expected). The outer extend region remains yellow.
CPSI renders the job almost the same as Acrobat, but the outer extend region is painted in cyan, not yellow. An Nth reading of the PDF and PS specs has revealed a subtle difference; there is one sentence in the stitching function section of the PDF spec not present in the PS spec, it is "If the last bound, Bounds(k−2) , is equal to Domain(1) , then x′ is defined to be Encode(2i)". I take this to mean the outer extends region may have different color in the PDF and PS versions by design.
3. If the pdf job is changed to make the shading domain [0.01 0.99], Acrobat displays the inner extend in black as before (unexpected), otherwise the same as 2).
To summarise:
1. There appears to be a bug in Acrobat whereby it ignores domain of the shading when painting the extend regions.
2. There is an incompatibility between Acrobat and CPSI in the outer extends region when the final Bounds entry is equal to the Domain value. This may be by design.

JDBC 8.1.6.0.1 Bug with grouping function

Hi,
I found a bug in the JDBC 8.1.6.0.1 driver, concerning the new grouping functionality of Oracle 8.1.6. Look at the following code fragment:
String cSelect = "SELECT DACO_VU_NAME AS DIM1, ' ' AS DIM2, TO_CHAR(DACO_VERKAUFSDATUM,'yyyymm') AS DIM_DATE, GROUPING(DACO_VU_NAME) AS DIM1GROUP, GROUPING(' ') AS DIM2GROUP, GROUPING(TO_CHAR(DACO_VERKAUFSDATUM,'yyyymm')) AS DIM_DATEGROUP, sum(DACO_BRUTTOBETRAG_TX) AS VALUE FROM DATENCONTAINER GROUP BY CUBE (DACO_VU_NAME, '-', TO_CHAR(DACO_VERKAUFSDATUM,'yyyymm') ) ORDER BY 1,2,3";
try {
System.out.println("SELECT: " + cSelect);
Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
ResultSet rset = stmt.executeQuery(cSelect);
while (rset.next()) {
String cTest1 = rset.getString("DIM1");
String cTest2 = rset.getString("DIM2");
String cTest3 = rset.getString("DIM_DATE");
String cChar1 = rset.getString("DIM1GROUP");
String cChar2 = rset.getString("DIM2GROUP");
String cChar3 = rset.getString("DIM_DATEGROUP");
System.out.println(cTest1 + "\t" + cTest2 + "\t" + cTest3 + "\t" + cChar1 + "\t" + cChar2 + "\t" + cChar3);
}When I compile this with the mentioned JDBC version and run it with java 1.2.2 (JDeveloper 3.1), i get the following output:
Ahrend GmbH & Co. KG 200003 0 0 0
Ahrend GmbH & Co. KG 200003 1 0 0
Ahrend GmbH & Co. KG 200004 0 0 0
Ahrend GmbH & Co. KG 200004 1 0 0
Ahrend GmbH & Co. KG null 0 0 1
Ahrend GmbH & Co. KG null 1 0 1
null 200003 0 1 0
null 200003 1 1 0
null 200004 0 1 0
null 200004 1 1 0
null null 0 1 1
null null 1 1 1As you can see, the grouping columns are mixed up. In this example, everywhere a normal row shows a "null" value, a corresponding grouping row should show a "1", but as you can see, for the last 6 rows, the ones are not in the first, but in the second grouping row.
When I compile the example with the Oracle 8.1.5 JDBC driver, I get the following, correct, output:
Ahrend GmbH & Co. KG 200003 0 0 0
Ahrend GmbH & Co. KG 200004 0 0 0
Ahrend GmbH & Co. KG null 0 0 1
Ahrend GmbH & Co. KG 200003 0 1 0
Ahrend GmbH & Co. KG 200004 0 1 0
Ahrend GmbH & Co. KG null 0 1 1
null 200003 1 0 0
null 200004 1 0 0
null null 1 0 1
null 200003 1 1 0
null 200004 1 1 0
null null 1 1 1The special thing about this example is, that I use a constant row for grouping (row 2). If you use a normal database row, everything works fine with 8.1.6.0.1, but nevertheless, this should be a bug.
Any comments on this are highly appreciated, since I need the JDK 1.2 for the application and I didn't find a working Oracle 1.2 JDBC version.
Thanks,
Thorsten.

Patches can be obtained from an Oracle Support Services technical analyst.

Is there a bug with firefox when supporting "aria-labelledby" attribute for span element?

I use firefox 10.0.3, and using JAWS 13 to read the screen.
I set the "aria-labelledby" attribute for the span, and only first element content was read even I set three 'id' for this attribute. This can work well under IE8.

Hi MacroZ,
I understand your point. JAWS support different ways to navigate the page, such as use 'tab' key to navigate clickable items, or use 'Ctrl+Alt+arrow keys' to navigate the data table cells.
I removed the 'gridcell' role from data cells and when I use 'Ctrl+Alt+arrow keys', it works well(I move to one cell, and it can read column title, then row title, then cell value). So it's acceptable because at least we have one way to read this data table :)
There is one more thing I want to ask, I have one page that include one iframe, and the page inside the iframe has several hyper links, I start JAWS13, then use 'tab' key to navigate these links inside the iframe page, when I navigate to one link, I press 'enter' key to goto the new page, then I found all links in the new page do not work when I navigate to any of them and press 'enter' key(it can works well when using mouse click). Seems there's no problem under IE8, I'm not sure this issue comes from JAWS or firefox, so hope you can help to confirm on this, many thanks!

The bug with JNI function RegisterNatives in Java 1.6

JDK 1.6 has problems with implementation of native methods in the class that loaded at runtime. I found it after making debug version of JVM.DLL.
I have JNI code that
- loads at runtime a new class with native methods;
- implements these methods with RegisterNatives();
- gets Field and Constructor IDs (at this time JVM cleans all finction pointers in Methods Table of the class);
- creates the object of this class and passes it to Java code for callbacks.
When Java calls my native methods I get the exception: "java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError", the naive method was not implemented.
I did workaround in my JNI code:
- load the class;
- get Field and Constructor IDs;
- implement methods with RegisterNatives();
- create the object of this class and pass it to Java code for callbacks.
This version of my code runs fine.

What I do with Java? I am developing
- .NET JNI SDK (like regular JNI SDK for C++) for
integration .NET and SUN/IBM Java codes,
- technology of integrating Java applications with
other programming platforms without knowledge of Java
Application sources,
- automation of JNI programming in C++ and .NET,
- tools for conversion AWT based applications to
SWING, etc.
Beside Java projects I develop projects with
Databases, OLAP, WEB in .NET, C++, VB6, etc.
That is why I have no much time to focus in SUN Java.Yes and I am busy too.
That had nothing to do with my post however.
I suggested that if your sole or primary critieria for langauge selection is whether the language forums have company representatives then you should choose .Net rather than java.
Myself the forum support is never even a minor factor in language selection.

You could just disable updates. Change these settings in about:config.
* app.update.auto - set to false
* app.update.enabled - set to false
You can still check for updates with the "Check for Updates" button in the About Firefox window, but it will download the update file anyway if there is an update available. You can also check which is the current release from here:

I have an aggregate measure in a cube ASO, aggregating to a minimum, I tried to use the MIN function but have not worked out as expected in the first Essbase is the sum of the data and then calculates the minimum.
This is the function used:

how to proceed in these cases?
Thank you

Standard troubleshooting steps in the following order:
1. Reset: Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the apple logo, then release. Ignore the slide to power off. You won't lose any data or settings.
If no change, continue:
2. Restore your phone from your most recent backup & re-sync your itunes content, Note however: if the problem is related to corrupt data in your phone's backup, while this will restore a fresh OS, it will also restore the problem.
If no change, continue:
3. Restore as a "new" phone in itunes & re-sync your content. All saved data will be lost.
If no change, make an appointment at an Apple store, as you most likely have a hardware problem. There are no further user troubleshooting steps available.

Bug with function "resume 0x****" of jdb

One problem with the function of jdb occured when I tried to use it to
pilot the processor with differents threads. In fact, I use a simple example with 2 threads.
I stop the two threads with two breakpoint, and I want to resume one or the other (with the function "resume 0x****"), the one wich I resumed stop again on the breackpoint and I decide again to resume one or the other. All of that to obtain a tree of execution.
I give you the code of the class and the code of jdb.
CLASS: (it's just a object Room with a variable degre that I increment and decrement with two threads increase and decrease)
public class Test{
      public static void main(String[] args){
           Room r = new Room();
           decrease de = new decrease(r);
           increase in = new increase(r);
           de.start();
           in.start();
class Room {
     private volatile int degre=20;
     public void more(){
        degre += 4;
     public void less(){

PS: I tried many other examples with other class and other kind of breakpoints, but, in any cases, on thread doesn't manage to resume. When I try with general resume (no specification of the thread), It works but it isn't interresting for me because I want to decide wich thread continue his execution.

Looks like a memory clearing problem in the function. Best to post this problem in an OSS message, or look through the OSS notes to see if the problem has been identified before.

Audio/Animation Bug, with a work-around

This is one of those cases where TechSupport believes a
work-around is fine to something I would consider a bug. Took me a
while to find the solution so I'd like to share with everyone my
problem/solution.
Background: I have a presentation with recorded audio on a
slide that uses custom animation; in this case I've drawn circles
and squares against an image to highlight a point. The animation is
"on click" specific per Breeze. One of those animations creaps in
slowly.
Issue: When that same presentation from the Content Library
is shared in a Meeting, in my opinion all sound should be
"disconnected" unless using the presentation playbar. However, I
have found that during the building of the screen (using Next/Right
Arrow), the "sound behind the animation" comes through. Not
terribly anoying for fast entrances, etc., but when something
creaps in, you can have a lengthy audio playback during that time.
IMHO, this shouldn't happen.
Solution: (two; 1 TechSupport, 1 mine) TechSupport says to
save the presentation as a different file name, close and delete
the .ppc file, reload into PowerPoint, accept the load without
audio and republish. Then in the meeting room simply select that
renamed file. Major drawback on this point: I've got a file upload
limit on my account. I've just doubled the space required per file.
My solution was to use the Pod Options on the share, select
Show Presentation Playbar and mute the audio. Simple.
However, I still think the audio snippets behind the
animations are a bug.
Thanks for letting me get the word out about audio behind
animations.

First Try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some original photos from other library that are not rotated properly and check to see if the same problem persists. If it does persist do the following: make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
If still not working correctly continue with the following: apply the fixes below in order as needed:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Photoshop CS6 Action Player Bug Make Adjustment Layer Applied to all to be Clipped

On Oct. 11, 2010 I received the following from Adobe Support
Hi John,
This is to inform you that we have been able to reproduce the same {Photoshop Actions} behavior at our end.
So we have logged this issue with the Product Team and Engineering Team as Bug # 2737069. Adobe’s Engineering Team will look into this issue, and if in the future a resolution or fix is possible, it will be available from the Adobe Systems product update web site: http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/.
You may also log this issue directly with our product teams, through the following Feature Request/Bug Form: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&samcap=EWQQL&promoid=EWQQL
I am closing case # 181675168, if you have any new information, please contact Adobe Technical Support referencing the case number so that we may re-open the support incident.
Thank you for choosing Adobe.
Thanks and Regards,
Rajdeep Kaur
Technical Support Consultant (Tier 2)
ADOBE Systems
I reopened the case for there was no fix Adobe contacted me and told me it would be fixed is some future release of Photoshop and once again case # 181675168 was closed over my objection.
I was vocal about Adobe poor excuse for support in forums. I then was contacted by Jeff Tranberry of Adobe he was asked to contact me by John Nack to see if he could change me. We exchanged some e-mails ending with Jeff writing unfortunately, you issues has been deemed low impact and has been deferred.
May 7, 2012 I called Adobe to find out if this bug was fixed in Photoshop for I did not want to buy CS6 if the Bug was not fixed. After about an hour on the phone talking to many Adobe employees including Adobe Support referenced case # 181675168 log as Bug # 2737069. I was told the bug was not in CS6. So I ordered CS6. FedX dropped off Today I installed it only to find the bug introduced is CS4 reported in CS5 is still in CS6.
Adobe when will you fix this bug # 2737069????

CS5 Action Feature Bug
NOTES & RESPONSES

CS5 has a bug recording and playing Actions that add Adjustments layers. Old actions recorded before CS5 and actions recorded with CS5 may or may not Play/Work correctly.
Before there was an Adjustment Panel all Adjustment Layers were added applied to all layers and you needed to clip them after the were added if you wanted it clipped. The new adjustment panel made it possible to add a adjustment layer clipped to the current layer. However a clipping parameter is not recorded by the action recorder just the type and setting are recorded.
When a make adjustment layer step is play it is either clipped or not depending on the state of the adjustment panel's clipping icon. If it not in the same state as it was when the action was recorded it will be add incorrectly. It would also be impossible to create an action that added some adjust layer clipped and others that are not.
I feel the is a serious bug which needs to be addressed. I believe the solution is simple and even old actions will also work.
Two patches are needed.
One in the Action recorder. If the step being recorded is make adjustment layer and the adjustment panel icon state is clip to layer this needs to be recorded in the action step record. If the layer is to be applied nothing extra needs to be recorded in the step record just leave it as is like actions prior to the adjustment panel.
The second patch in the Action Player. If the step that is about to execute is a make adjustment layer. The Player needs to save away the state of the adjustment panel icon. Then check the adjustment step record to see if it is to be clipped. If so set the adjustment panel icon to the clipping state else set it to the all layers state. Then do/call the add adjustment layer function/routine on return restore the adjustment panels icon from the saved state. Proceed to the next step.
I have been trying to report the bug for days. Please at least acknowledge you received my bug report.
Thanks
JJ

I consulted your knowledge base and I called customer support. This bug has not been listed. Custom support had me fill out a bug report at https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm? name=wishform which I did but that was not even acknowledged. I demonstrated the bug to customer support by sharing my screen.
As for you forums for some reason the forum web site states my Adobe ID is disabled so I can not append or start a thread there id screen name jjmack. I created a new Adobe ID yesterday [email protected] that to seems to be disabled or I can not come up with any screen name the is availably I have tried many. Every simple or outlandish name I have entered generates the same message screen name not available. I'm at my wits end I've been using Photoshop since Photoshop version 3. Over the years it seems to get harder and harder to communicate with Adobe....

simpler then I first thought. Upon more investigation this is what I see.
I skipped CS4 and when I installed CS5 I discovered a nasty bug had been introduced is Photoshop's Action facility most likely in CS4.
Action that add adjustment Layers clipped to the current layer that step is recorded Make adjustment layer with Clip.
Action that add adjustment Layers not clipped Step records as Make adjustment layer.
When a step Make adjustment layer with Clip is played back that is what Photoshop does.
When a step Make adjustment layer is played back what Photoshop does is look at the adjustment panel clipping icon state and and if it is clip to current layer Photoshop does clip the adjustment layer to the current when is should be applied to all.
Many of the actions I have created add adjustment layer applied to all then later clip them to the current layer. These actions generate an error message if the Adjustment panel clipping icon is set to clip. Because the layer get added clipped clipping it is not available. The strange thing is the layer is clipped the way I wanted it to be. But actions I recorded where I want the adjustment to apply to all are clipped and the is no error message just wrong results.

My user ID is now operational again after I requested an password e-mail so I could reset my password. When I received the e-mail I was able to set my accounts password and once again participate in Adobe's forums.
The is still no change in the status of my bug report. I would like to be able to play actions and know the will work the way there were recorded.

Create a one step action that add an adjustment layer that applies to all layers.
Play that action with the icon in the adjustment panel is set to apply to all layers. Change the status of that icon to clip to layer and play the action again.
You will find the first adjustment layer was added correctly apply to all layers like it was recorded the second adjustment was added clipped to layer when it should be applied to all...

July 2 Adobe support called me once again they share my display and I demonstrated the bug for a second time. This time the stated they were recording my demo. After I demonstrated the bug they put me on hold for a while. Upon returning they informed me that there was still no circumvention or fix for this problem. They wanted to know if I was at the latest software level they were still sharing my display so I did a Photoshop Help About Photoshop to show I had the latest update Photoshop version 12.0.1. Told me they were not capable of handling this problem and would have to refer this to senior technical support that they would determine if it was a bug. What a joke Adobe junior technical support can not even recognize a bug when it has been demonstrated to them on two occasions now and also received several case update from me. Adobe you need better support personal.

This should resolve your issue. If it does, please let us know, however in case it does not; please revert with any new information that you might want to add which will help us in resolving your issue.

Any work around does not solve my problem. Thousands have downloaded my actions. There is no way that I can contact them to make the aware of any work around. I can code around this bug but again I have no way to get the update to those that have downloaded my actions for they are free. All that is logged is the number of downloads. No registration is required so there is no way to contact the users that downloaded my actions. The problem will only be resolved when adobe updates Photoshop and fixes the problem.

This case should not be closed till there is a fix for this bug. How can Adobe Support close a bug report when Adobe acknowledges its a bug where Adobe Support does not provide a fix. Blowing smoke with statements like "if in the future a resolution or fix is possible, it will be available from the Adobe Systems product update web site". Photoshop CS3 work correctly Adobe broke the Action Player in CS4 and its still broken is CS5. "if a fix is possible!"!!! Are you joking? What kind of support is that? Do you get a bonus for closing bug reports without fixing the bug? Does it make you look good inside Adobe. I can tell you from the outside there is a foul stench emulation from Adobe Technical Support.

Dear John ,
Thank you for getting back to us with the required information and we appreciate your patience in helping us to resolve your issue as soon as possible.
I would suggest you to please go to through the KB document to move actions from Photoshop CS4 to CS5 given below :
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/860/cpsid_86020.html
Please make sure about the loaction of actions which you created or saved in Photoshop CS4, go to that location and make sure you have all the actions there.
Did it ever work in Photoshop CS5?
Try to make a copy of the action that he is trying to run, remove the 'Hide' command and re-record hide in PS CS5, put it into the action, and see if that works.
Or try making a short action along with Hide command . If this works, then something might have got changed between the version.

Error while replacing IF statements with DECODE function in procedure

Hi All,
I have created a procedure which has nested IF statements. Now I want to replace the IF statements with DECODE functions to improve performance.
Procedure:
IF (var_int_sev = '0')
THEN
var_sev := '2';
ELSE
SELECT sev
INTO var_int_sev
FROM errorconfig
WHERE errorcode = var_errorcode;
var_sev := var_int_sev;
END IF;
I converted the above IF statement into DECODE function as mentioned below:
var_Sev := DECODE(var_int_sev,0,2,SELECT severity FROM errorconfig WHERE errorcode=var_ErrorCode)
But it throws below error at the select statement used inside DECODE.
Error(58,51): PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "SELECT" when expecting one of the following: ( - + case mod new not null others <an identifier> <a double-quoted delimited-identifier> <a bind variable> avg count current exists max min prior sql stddev sum variance execute forall merge time timestamp interval date <a string literal with character set specification> <a number> <a single-quoted SQL string> pipe <an alternatively-quoted string literal with character set specification> <an alternativ
Can someone help me in converting the IF to DECODE in the above case. Also how can we use a select statement inside decode.

instead of trying to rewrite all your code and hoping that the performance will be better, it's a better option to investigate and find out which part of your application is slow

30EA3: German language bug with user defined reports still not fixed

In 30EA2: Limited folder functionality with German language
I wrote about a bug in 30EA2. Was this message noticed by the developers?
The bug still exists in 30EA3.
In new folders for user definded reports only the options "Kopieren" and "Exportieren" (copy and export) are available, when SQL-Deverloper runs in German language mode.
A workaround is to force language to English with the line
AddVMOption -Duser.language=en
in sqldeveloper.conf

I made a new thread for the same bug in 3.1EA2:
3.1EA2 Old bug with German language settings still exists
I have some hope, that my problem finally got noticed by the developers.

Bug in exists() function of XI Graphical Mapping Tool?

Hi!
If I connect a source field with the exists() function in XI Graphical Mapping Tool and the tag exists it returns TRUE, otherwise it returns FALSE, so everything works as expected.
But I have to connect a user-defined function with exists(). The user-defined function will either calculate a value or set Resultset.SUPPRESS.
If there is a value the exits() function returns TRUE, however if Resultset.SUPPRESS is set it does also return TRUE! This looks to me like a bug in exists() function. Shouldn't it always return FALSE if the input is Resultset.SUPPRESS?
Regards, Tanja

Hi Stefan!
> The exists() function checks, if a queue is empty.
> An empty queue is not represented by the
> SUPPRESS value.
> If inside a queue there is a SUPPRESS value, the
> queue is not empty.
Ok, so it's not a bug and the exists() function is working as expected.
> If you want the exist() function after a UDF, provide
> an empty queue, or easier: return the values "true"
> or "false" directly from the UDF.
Yes, that's how I actually solved the problem. The UDF was used at several places where the ResultList.SUPPRESS output was needed. So I copied the UDF and changed it so that the output was TRUE or FALSE instead.
Regards, Tanja

3.1EA2 Old bug with German language settings still exists

In the past I wrote several times about a bug in SQL Developer when running in German language mode. This bug is still not fixed in 3.1 EA2:
In new folders for user definded reports only the options "Kopieren" and "Speichern unter ..." ('Copy' and 'Cave as') are available, when SQL-Deverloper runs in German language mode. Other options like "Bearbeiten, Neuer Ordner, Neuer Bericht, Ausschneiden, Einfügen, Löschen" (Edit, New Folder, New Report, Cut, Paste, Delete) are missing. A workaround is to force language to English with the line
AddVMOption -Duser.language=en
in sqldeveloper.conf
I mentioned it first in Re: Folders with limited functionality about version 2.1.1.64 and then in 30EA2: Limited folder functionality with German language 3.0 EA2 and German language bug with user defined reports still not fixed Beta Release 3.0 EA3
Edited by: user1775992 on 22.11.2011 03:30

I have raised a bug on this issue and I am actively looking into it.
