Can I Link BOM Node System Properties to Basic Nodes?

Configurator Developer R12
Currently, we utilize basic nodes in the UI that represent the actual BOM nodes which are not displayed in the UI; however, there is a system property, specifically List Price, that is tied to the BOM node that must be visible in the UI next to the appropriate option.
This is currently being handled as a separate cell element in the UI that is manually tied to a specific option, but this method is very manual as it is outside of a Node List Layout Region.
I would like to be able to "link" this system property somehow to the basic node so that I can simply point to the property from the basic node rather than create a row for each option that is linked to the BOM node for just this property. Is there a standard way of "linking" these two node types? Anyone have any experience with this type of need?
Thanks,
Paul

Paul --
Good to know that your desired end state eliminates the dummy Options and uses Properties (whether maintained in Configurator Developer or imported from Inventory Catalog Group Descriptive Elements) to deal with the display captions. This would definitely be the preferred solution, and only if there is a compelling reason why it is not feasible should the scheme I'm about to outline be considered.
The best way to implement a List Price "linking" mechanism is by leveraging User String Properties. Think of these as dynamic Properties, whose values can be set by a Configurator Extension at runtime. (They're documented in the "User String Properties" section of Chapter 6 of the Oracle Configurator Extensions and Interface Object Developer's Guide.) Your CX would iterate through your Option Class(es), and for each Item it would set a User String Property (UserStr01, for example) on the corresponding Option to the Item's List Price. The UI Content Template used for displaying the Option Feature would then be enhanced to display the UserStr01 value along with the name of each Option.
To be as reusable and as generic as possible, you want your CX to have as little in the way of hardcoded values as possible. As such, you want to handle the mapping of Items to their corresponding Options via your Model Structure, Properties in particular, and not via hardcoded mappings in your CX code. You'll want to define a Property ("Corresponding Guided-Selling Node", for example) on each Option Class that identifies its corresponding Option Feature, and on each Item that identifies its corresponding Option within the Option Feature. In doing so, you eliminate the need to modify your CX whenever changes are made to your BOM. The CX can operate over all the Option Classes on which it finds the Property defined, so if a new Option Class is added it will automatically get picked up, and a new Item added to an existing Option Class will work as long as the Property is defined on it and a corresponding Option is created for it.
Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions or concerns about it.

Via APIs. how can I get weblogic specific system properties

I am looking to find out the API for enumerating over weblogic's system
properties. I would like to be able to find out things like the service
pack #, the class path it's using, etc. I've tried the
System.getProperties() but that only gets me java properties.
Thanks.

try getServletContext().getResourceAsStream("/index.html") where the filename should be givven relative to the web app root
try{
InputStream is = new BufferedInputStream(getServletContext().getResourceAsStream("/index.html"));
defaultProps.load(new FileInputStream("Intranet_Properties.props"));

If yes, please correct my example in this post with the best way.

Have a look at all the JavaBean***Property classes.
You have to wrap you entity class and for each usual getter/setter you will have to provide an additional property in the JavaFX style with the help of the builder class.
http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2/api/javafx/beans/property/adapter/JavaBeanStringPropertyBuilder.html
Then you can do (bidirectional) binding.
For bidirectional binding, also notice this from the docs:
If the Java Bean property is bound (i.e. it supports PropertyChangeListeners), this JavaBeanStringProperty will be aware of changes in the Java Bean. Otherwise it can be notified about changes by calling fireValueChangedEvent().

Where can I change the System properties permanently

Instead of
System.setProperty("name","new-value");
to change the system properties in run-time.
How can I change it in a config file? Where is it?
Thx.

Hai,
We can't directly set the system properties values using config/properties file. But, if you wish to use <b>Spring </b> framework, there is an option to load system properties through a config file.

But how can I come to the system properties for example? Which ObjectName do I have to use and what methods should be called? Are there some more examples for common operations based on the default (monitoring) MBeans?
Thanx a lot,

System.properties (what is the scope in memory)

Does each JVM have it's own System properties? Hence calls from one JVM System.getProperty() or System.setProperty() should be within each individual JVM? Also I need to know this so that I can gurantee that using the System properties for private information won't be accessed by anyone else on the system... Any input?

System properties are unique for each VM, they are therefore visible to all code running in the VM.
This seems like a good thing to use for storing things like passwords because of the global visibility however using the System properties for storing such things has to be considered as being insecure.
System properties should be regarded as a place to read data from that is relevant for either the Java runtime environment or for setting component specific properties, XML Parsers make use of this for example. Using System properties as an in memory database is neither secure nor sensible. Careless selection of keys for the properties you wish to store can have unexpected results if you accidentally overwrite a property that is used for other purposes.
I would use a separate Properties instance that has nothing to do with the System properties and I would also recommend the encryption of sensitive data like passwords.

How can I get system properties?

Hello,
How can I get the system properties like %JAVA_HOME% in my java codes, for example, I want to print it like this.
System.out.println("%JAVA_HOME%");
but it doesn't work!
Please give me a hand!

To pass the Operating system environment variable to the Java "environment variables", you have to explicitely pass them on the command line eg.
java -Dmyjava.home=%JAVA_HOME% myClass
then, in your code use
String JAVA_HOME = System.getProperty ( "myjava.home" );regards,

Thanks in advance!

Hi,
First, please try the SFC command to check if you any corrupted system files:
How to use the System File Checker tool to troubleshoot missing or corrupted system files on Windows Vista or on
Windows 7
If this issue persists, it is recommended to perform system restore to get back to a previous time point to check what the result is:

Why can't I see an option for ethernet in System Properties?

My wife has just got a new MacBook Pro from work. The wi-fi is working fine, but the ethernet is not. There isn't even an option for it in System Properties. Any thoughts? Is it just a setting that's wrong or do I need to send it back?

Can i get the system properties(urgent)

Sir
i want to get the following properties of the system
1.What type of operating system install e.g win Xp or 98
2.How many hard disk are in the system
OR how many Partions of the system
3.Search the particular folder in the computer.
i study the System Class but these types of information
not available.Please Help me with Example.

Java Developer's Almanac 1.4:
// Get all system properties
Properties props = System.getProperties();
// Enumerate all system properties
Enumeration enum = props.propertyNames();
while(enum.hasMoreElements())
// Get property name
String propName = (String)enum.nextElement();
// Get property value
String propValue = (String)props.get(propName);
What's there, is there, what isn't, isn't. I believe there are many clues to what operating system you're on.

SCCM 2012 - Change Distribution Point's Site System Properties Site Code

Hello All,
I'm hoping someone can help me out. Here's what I have and here's what I'm trying to do.
SCCM 2012 R1
Each of our offices has a Windows 7 SP1 Ent PC that is a distribution point for that office's 10-20 machines. A number of these offices and their DPs were setup prior to me setting up a number of Secondary Site Servers. So right now, these DPs' site codes
are the primary site server's. I'd like to change these to one of the Secondary Site Servers.
When I go to the Site System properties of one of these Win7 distribution points, the Site Code is grayed out.
So, the question is, how can I change one of these DPs' site codes?
Thanks in advance to whomever helps!!
Bill

That's a strange reason for using Secondary Sites. How many clients are you managing? Have you good WAN links?

Setting System properties and classpath at boot

Hi all,
I'm pretty new to weblogic and I'd need to set some system properties and classpath definitions for my servers at boot. Can I set them via the Administration console or just adding them to the startWeblogic/startManagedWeblogic using the standard -cp and -D flags ?
I've found in the Console, there's the Server Boot properties. However adding them there didn't work. Correct me if I'm wrong, this option can be used ONLY when starting the servers from the Node Manager ?
Thanks
Frank

Hi Frank,
You are right!!!!
But you can set them with in setDomainEnv file under java_option.
Please set under
Unix
JAVA_OPTION = "${JAVA_OPTION} -DXXXXX"
In Windows
set JAVA_OPTION = %JAVA_OPTION% -DXXXXX
Hope this will help you.

Kal

Adding global system properties

Hello,
I know that there are some system properties that are available by default via the System.getProperty method. I also know that I can programatically add my own properties to that list.
My question is...Is there some way for an admin to add custom properties to that list through the Visual Administrator or Configuration Manager?
The reason I ask is because we want to have some properties that will have the same name on each runtime environment but different values. For example, let's say we have a property named NOTES_CONTENT_SERVER which will contain a different server name on DEV, QA and PROD.
Please ask if this question is not clear.
Thanks in advance for any help.
David.

Start the config tool, then in the tree structure in the left hand pane navigate to: cluster-data > instance_XXXXX > server_IDXXXXX (highlight this node).
In the General tab that will appear in the right hand pane you will see a label titled "Java parameters:" with a corresponding text field where you can enter all your JVM parameters. Add your global parameter like so "-Dmy.global.prop=blah".
Save your settings, and restart the cluster, you can then lookup the property in your code: System.getProperty("my.global.prop");
Of cousre you could have learned how to set JVM properties with the config tool on the SAP help site here:

Backup failed: can't link file

Hi,
Somehow one hard disk went south, one that I luckily used to backup with Time Machine, so no harm done there, and now after bringing a drive up again, using the very same volume name, restoring with Time Machine was a piece a cake.
But, on the other hand, now whenever I try to have this new "old" volume being backed up with Time Machine, the latter reports a failure due to not being able to link files (something about UUIDs or similar).
How can I resolve this and get everything working as smoothly and neatly as before without loosing any of my backups or having to use another disk for the backup?
- MMHein

Hi,
Well my environment consists of:
*) Mac Mini (internal HD, 120GB, 42GB free, name "S" = System)
*) USB HD (external HD, Maxtor OneTouch 750GB, 408GB free, name "B" = Backup)
*) USB HD (external HD, Maxtor 250GB, 61GB free, name "D" = Data)
When volume/drive "D" got corrupted and couldn't be repaired or recovered, I had to sweep the partition, re-partition the drive and format it again, using the very same name for the volume as before ("D").
Next step was to perform a restore of the previously backed up contents of the former volume "D". As all my Time Machine backups are done exclusively to volume "B" it was rather a piece of cake, only a bit time-comsuming as I had something around 120GB to restore.
Having successfully accomplished this I now wanted to configure Time Machine to backup volume "D" again (which I have disabled for the duration of the restore). At first it seem to work just as intended (and it actually took quite a long time), but in the end Time Machine quit with an error message, saying it couldn't complete the backup ("...can't link files..."; so unfortunately an error message not found under the link you posted ).
In the system log the following entries can be found:
