Can a setter store a value other than the one passed in?

I have a set of nodes that each have a String 'name' property. I want to ensure that no two nodes have the same name, so whenever a name is set, I want to consult a global hash to see if the name has already been allocated. If so, I want my setter to choose a similar but unique name and set my node's name to that.
If I do this, do I break the beans philosophy? Would utilities that use beans work incorrectly?

If I understand the use of bean correctly; then no, you will not cause utilites to act badly "that use beans properly".
I believe one of the uses of Setters is to do some type of validation on the information before it is accepted--your idea is well within that phylosophy.

  • Mail with multiple gmail accounts sending messages from wrong email, other than the one i select

    mail with multiple gmail accounts sending messages from wrong email, other than the one i select:
    i'm using mail on osx 10.7 with multiple gmail accounts. when i create an email, i check to be sure i'm sending/replying from the correct account. after i send it, somehow it actually sends it from a different account, other than the one i've selected "from." this is evidenced by the reply email i receive. how can i fix this?
    in preferences, i have "send new messages from : account of selected mailbox"

    From the Mail menu bar, select
              Mail ▹ Preferences...
    The Mail preference dialog opens. Select the Composing tab from the row of icons at the top. From the menu labeled
              Send new messages from:
    choose
              Account of selected mailbox
    Note that this setting may have no effect if you start a new message while a VIP or smart mailbox is selected in the mailbox list. Those are saved searches, not actual mailboxes.
    If the problem remains, select the Accounts tab in the preference dialog, then select the affected account in the list on the left.
    In the Account Information pane, select the correct server in the menu labeled
              Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)
    If there's only one server in the menu, select
              Edit SMTP Server List...
    and add a new server with the correct settings. If you're not sure how to do that, try the Mail Settings Lookup.

  • HT2688 Having updated to iOS7, I am unable to upload a video to shared stream but when I do, it won't play on any device other than the one used to upload ... help

    Having updated to iOS7, I am unable to upload a video to shared stream but when I do, it won't play on any device other than the one used to upload ... help please

    I also have this problem, as does everybody else I know who has tried to use the video in icloud. As the original poster says, they can be uploaded, but will only play on the device from which they were originally uploaded, appeaering only as images which display an endless buffering symbol when "played" on any other devices with which the photostream is shared.
    Has anyone been able to get this to work? And if not, why is there no acknowledgement from Apple that this bug exists and will be addressed in an update (now running 7.0.2 and still no improvement)? It was, after all, advertised as one of the attractive new features of iOS 7. So why the stony silence?

    Unlikely, I'm afraid.
    The LMS has no control over the playbar that pauses or plays the Captivate content.
    In a Multi SCORM package, the LMS also may be showing a TOC in the SCORM player with links to launch the lesson modules.  This TOC is in addition to the TOC inside the Captivate project file which gives access to sections of the module by jumping to slides that begin those sections.  But the LMS doesn't usually give you any control over the look and feel or functionality of that TOC either. 
    If your client is adamant that they want complete control over these areas, then your best option may be NOT to build this course with Captivate but build it from the ground up with another tool.  E.g. Flash, or Dreamweaver.  Either way, that will add a lot more time and expense to the project.  But if the client has the budget and is unwilling to budge on their requirement, then that's what I would be telling them to do.

  • I want to edge to a phone other than the one that I am "eligible" for

    I am very frustrated with the service that I have received lately. I currently own an iPhone 5 and have an upgrade in July. The phone works fine other than the short battery life and little storage left due to the fact that the new software updates get larger as they go. I became eligible for early edge at the beginning of February. When I went to take a look at my options I was told that I would only be able to edge to a droid max. I have had iPhone's since 2010 when I first got a smart phone, my entire platform runs off of Apple and I have absolutely no desire to change that now.
    I called customer service to see if anything could be done to change this option and was told that she could not do anything at the moment, but if I called back in the middle of March that I would be able to get an iPhone 6 and that she would notate my account saying just that. I waited like she told me and called back yesterday. I was then told that my account was notated "if she calls back in a COUPLE OF MONTHS that she will be able to get an iPhone 6." I'm sorry, but there is a big difference between a couple of weeks and a couple of months, especially considering that in a couple of months I will be able to upgrade my phone anyway which would mean there would have been no point in calling back if that's what I had been told originally. Why would I be told one thing and be specifically told when to call back, and then have her write down something else completely? It is very frustrating to be told one thing and then to essentially be told that I am incorrect because something else was written down. I have been a Verizon customer since 2007 and stayed with Verizon even when I moved to my own plan in 2013 and the fact that I am being given the run around is extremely frustrating and annoying. I am very dissatisfied with the service that I have received and with the fact that this is my fourth time dealing with the same topic.

    Yes, you got the phone which was currently eligible for Early Edge at the time. This changes from time to time. When the iPhone 6/6+ was first released those were the ONLY phones you could purchase on Early Edge. This was for September and October of 2014. You would not have been able to purchase any other phone with Early Edge at the time. At the time, this made a lot of android phone owners angry, just as it is making the OP(an iPhone owner) angry now. Then it was the Droid Turbo ONLY, then it was....
    One of the requisites AS LISTED ON THE EDGE PAGE is that your line must be eligible for an upgrade. Verizon lifts this requirement IF you want to purchase a specific phone. If the phone you want is not eligible for Early Edge at this moment, it may be at some point in the future and the phone CURRENTLY available may NOT be available for Early Edge. You were able to get the phone you wanted on Early Edge because it was the phone(or one of the phones) eligible at the time for Early Edge.
    Verizon does not have a link for Early Edge because it is not always available AND the eligible phones change from time to time. This is no different than any other special they occasionally run.
    Regardless, since a link WAS given for Edge which DOES list upgrade eligibility as being a requirement, if someone DOES NOT fulfill that requirement it is not out of the question that other portions of Edge may be different, too, such as what you posted "All Verizon Wireless smartphones, tablets and basic phones are eligible for Verizon Edge." If Verizon relaxes a requirement to enter into Edge, why is it so hard to fathom they may ALSO change something else such as which phones are eligible???
    The fact that the OP IS NOT able to purchase an iPhone on Early Edge simply reinforces this fact.

  • CF Admin login fails (invalid pw) for Windows User other than the one used to install CF 10

    I installed CF 10 on a server running Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard having logged into the server as a Windows user in the administrator group.  I set up CF 10 Administrator to use a single password (the default).  I can log into CF Admin when authenticating to the server with the same Windows credentials used when installing CF 10 but if I log into the server as another Windows user in the administrator group I cannot log into CF Admin; I get an Invalid Password error.  I thought the whole point of the single password was so that anyone who can log into the server could log into CF Admin.  It works like that for my CF 8 and CF 9 machines.

    It is a new design, based on security issues that arose in previous ColdFusion versions. See, for example, Charlie Arehart's blog for more details.

  • Updating iPhone software from a computer other than the one it is synched

    I am going to be traveling without the PC my iPhone is synched with. If a software release comes out, can I update it from another computer somewhere else and not lose my data?

    Yes, but I wouldn't recommend it.
    You can install a firmware update without syncing - unless the update is a major one that requires the iPhone being deleted first before the update is installed - as with 2.0 over 1.1.x.
    And if something goes wrong with the install, you may be left with an updated iPhone but without any data.
    I would wait until returning home to use the computer that you sync your iPhone with since there is always the possibility that something goes wrong with the installation. This has never happened to me with any firmware update, but I still wouldn't use another computer.

  • How do I get a drop down menu to auto default to option selected a value other than the default written in the javascript?

    I use web based software where I have to select from a drop down menu a particular option. However, I only ever use 1 option. Sometimes as much as 100 times a day. Is there anyway to get Firefox to auto select the same option every time? I don't have access to the source code so I cant change <option selected="selected" value="">.

    A possibility would be a Greasemonkey script to do this automatically or a JavaScript bookmarklet to do it manually.
    You would need to remove the selected="selected" from the currently selected option and set that attribute for the wanted option.
    You can test the bookmarklet here:
    *https://developer.mozilla.org/en/HTML/Element/select
    <pre><nowiki>javascript:(function(){var d=document,s=d.getElementsByTagName('SELECT')[0],o=s.getElementsByTagName('OPTION'),S='selected',v='value1',i;for(i=0;O=o[i];i++){if(O.value==v){O.setAttribute(S,S);O.selected=true}else{O.removeAttribute(S);O.selected=false;}}})();</nowiki></pre>
    If there are more 'selects' then you need to adjust the element number [0] and you also need to adjust the value of the wanted option.

  • How can I insert into a table other than the default table in a form

    Hi,
    I want to insert into a table with some fields value of a form of another table. I have written insert code On successful submission of that form, but after submit it gives the following error
    An unexpected error occurred: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error (WWV-16016)
    My code is like this
    declare
    l_trn_id number;
    l_provider_role varchar2(3);
    l_provider_id varchar2(10);
    begin
    l_trn_id := p_session.get_value_as_number(p_block_name=>'DEFAULT',p_attribute_name=>'A_TRANSACTION_ID');
    l_provider_id := p_session.get_value_as_varchar2(p_block_name=>'DEFAULT',p_attribute_name=>'A_PROVIDER1');
    l_PROVIDER_ROLE := p_session.get_value_as_varchar2(p_block_name=>'DEFAULT',p_attribute_name=>'A_PROVIDER_ROLE1');
    if (l_provider_role is not null) and (l_provider_id is not null) then

    values(l_provider_id, l_trn_id, l_provider_role);
    commit;
    end if;
    end;
    Where 'PROVIDER1' and 'PROVIDER_ROLE1' are not table fields.
    How can do that or why this error comes ? Any idea?
    Thanks
    Sumita

    Hi,
    When do you get this error? Is it while running or while creating the form.
    Here is a sample code which inserts a non-database column dummy into a table called dummy. This is done in successful procedure.
    declare
    l_dummy varchar2(1000);
    begin
    l_dummy := p_session.get_value_as_varchar2(p_block_name=>'DEFAULT',
    p_attribute_name=>'A_DUMMY');
    insert into sjayaram903_1g.dummy values(l_dummy);commit;
    end;
    Please check in your case if the size of the local variable is enough to hold the values being returned.
    Thanks,
    Sharmila

  • My Bookmarks aren't working, even after following many troubleshooting recommendations, other than the one where I'd loose my, possibly already lost, bookmarks and how can I get them back?

    I am on a iMac using Firefox 3.6.3, and my "Bookmarks" are not working properly after my last upgrade. When I go to "Organize Bookmarks" the boxes for name, tags, visit date, etc. are blank and the arrows are gray. Just in case my Bookmarks are hidden, I tried to restore them by going to the Library window. However Firefox did not ask me "to save the bookmark backup to a folder" on my hard drive as stated in your article "Restoring bookmark backups" 2.2.) Number 4 of the same article tells me how "to restore one of the listed backups" and when I tried this I was told Firefox is "unable to process the backup file." I also tried to go to "Choose File" from the Restore Menu (instead of automatic backup) and clicked on Applications and then Firefox just to see what would happen and was told applications is an "unsupported file type". Also, FYI Torbutton is not installed on my iMac. I don't want to "Create a new places database" without knowing that my Bookmarks are in fact backed up, especially since I received the above message. I was wondering if should uninstall the 3.6.3 and just go back to the 3.6.2. It seems that Firefox updates have a history of wreaking havoc on the older programs. Do you recommend waiting to update until I have gotten feed back as to problems it creates?

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Why doesn't my ipod read videos other than the ones from the itunes store?

    I have a video that i downloaded that is not currently available within the itunes store and i don't know how to get it into my itunes library for my ipod. It lists and it plays only the videos purchsed in the itunes store. Does anyone know how to get this video into my library or have any suggestions?

    If you have the movie as a saved file on your computer you can click and drag it onto the itunes library. If not then you can download an imaging program like handbrake for mac or videora for windows and convert them to mpeg4 files so that you can. At that point you can right click or control click on the video in itunes then you will be able to convert it by selecting convert selection for ipod. If it states convert selection to acc then you must go to apple.com/itunes and download the newest version of itunes and you will be able to do it. The only issue is that you may get an audio delay on the video or when you transfer it to the ipod then it may not play sound at all. If it does that then delete it out of itunes and reimport until it works.
