CC conforming to IEEE but not GCC?

Hi,
Im not sure if this is the right forum, if not then please move it.
I have started working on code which is to run on a sunfire15k server.
I am compiling a serial version of code that was previously developed and run on a 64bit amd machine. Compilation had always taken place using gcc.
Output from the sparc system differs very slightly from the amd system. Only slightly and it looks like rounding errors. An exampleof the different numbers would be:
AMD: -0.324831
SPARC: -0.324832
Although this looks like a very small difference, this value is then used in other programs and the differences between the two platforms gets greater and greater. The code is mainly floating point maths.
I have read about x86 chips using more guard bits for computation - is this true?
Ideally I would like a compiler flag to enable x86 compatibility on the sparc systems. Even if the x86 is doing things incorrectly (which I suspect it is), a large backcatalogue of data has been generated on the x86 platform and proven to be of value.
Any suggestions on how to achieve the same output?
Many thanks

My application also does lots of double calculations and I am supporting solaris-sparc64,aix-ppc64,linux-x86_64 and MS windows. I can tell you there is little you can do if the problem is the input data.
I am not sure what compilation options you use, but SunCC comes with some highly optimized math libraries. I doubt you have exact replicate with your gcc amd 64 build. Besides, compiler can convert (x / 2.0) to (x * 0.5). I have seen different results merely by switching to a faster sun processor in the same family. I believe I got 14+ significant digit accuracy before subtracting 2 almost identical numbers.
I think you may have to find out where roundoff error is more likely to cause problem and rework your formulas/implementation.

IPod nano recognized in MY Computer but not in iTunes

My iPod nano is recognized under My Computer but not in iTunes.
I formaatted the iPod nano as FAT32 using the format option when right-clicking on the drive in My Computer.
I installed the latest version of iTunes software. I adopted the five R's approach to resolve my issue. I have wanted to restore the iPod but this option is not available in iTunes, since the iPod is not recognised by the software.
The iPod diagnostics option in iTunes indicates the following:
Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 (Build 2600)
Dell Computer Corp. Latitude L400
iTunes 7.0.2.16
iPodService 7.0.2.16 is currently running.

Applet, Netscape and Opera but not IE, encore

I've got the following trivial applet that runs under Netscape and Opera, but not under IE. It's also at www.MartinRinehart.com as the ColorChooser choice. There's a half dozen Dukes from previous posts, and my sincere gratitude for anyone who can tell me what I need to do so IE doesn't say "Load: class CCApplet not found."
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.Button;
import java.awt.Label;
public class CCApplet extends java.applet.Applet {
     public void start() {
          Label l = new Label( "CCApplet!" );
          setLayout( new BorderLayout() );
          add( l, BorderLayout.NORTH );
          add( new Button("South"), BorderLayout.SOUTH );
} // end of class CCAppletThe .class is in the same directory as the .html. Putting it in a .jar doesn't seem to matter. My IE runs other applets from the web, but not the ones I write. Thanks in advance.

The applet runs for me in IE with 1.5.0_02, XP Pro (current updates), with class and html files in same directory.
Check that everything in IE's Java Plug-in is valid and correct. Check IE's Internet Options.
What JVM version are you wanting the applet to be able to run with? What does this statement mean? "...most visitors can use without knowing what a JRE is."
To get greatest compatibility, use code that conforms to the 1.1 API, compile to that target version, possibly use the old 1.1 libraries, and then test each jvm. (BTW - Swing has limited compatibility - it isn't MS compatible, and wasn't [Sun] standard until jvm version 1.2.)

In PP PDC Interface IDOC Message 53 , But Not Confirmed

In PP / PDC Interface is to update confirmation to the SAP system that were entered in the subsystem by IDOC.
In the incomming message status "53 Application document posted".
But the confirmation has not came.
Kind Advice .
Prasanna

Hi,
As you are saying that, status is 53 and conformation is not coming. Actually, there will be some table , which will be updating the conformation to SAP. First check that table. status doesnot depend whether your conformation is there are not. it purely, related , how you have written your code and updating the status.
thanks

Danish Keyboard Layout working in Gnome but not in Kde

Hi!,
I'm trying to get to work the Danish Keyboard layout in Kde, with no success. In Gnome it works fine, but in Kde (or well, any Qt based app), when I hit å, ø, or try to write accents, I get two white quads instead of the correct character. It works if I write them in a gtk aplication, copy and paste in a kde app.. but...
Does anyone knows what can be possibly happening?
My xorg.conf has
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "dk"
and Kde is configured to use the DK Layout.
thanks!
silencer
ps. I wrote this in gnome

Ouh, no.. I have another problem
I want the language (for apps like gcc, or mc) to be english, not danish, so I replaced in rc.conf da_DK.utf8 by en_DK.utf8, and got the language as english, but now.. accents doesn't work anymore. They do work, again, under gnome, but not in kde. Any ideas?
thanks a lot

I have an Iphone 4s and windows 7 64 bit. I knew there were troubles with win7 and itunes so I waited to try to sync.
Today I was told that a new version of itunes was out and I could sync my phone now. Installed itunes 10.5.2.11 and my iphone shows up in windows as an iphone but not in itunes. When I run itunes diagnostics it shows itune does not see an iphone.
Startng to get a little frustrated. I've uninstalled and reinstalled everything a few times, Made sure the services were started, restarted the computer, reset the phone and just about everything else I could think of.

Lidswitch:How to just shutdown the screen but not hibernate the system

I used to set HandleLidswitch = hibernate in /etc/systemd/logind.conf and when I close the lid, only the screen was turned off and everything went on in the system. So I can sit there waiting for the work done without being distracted from the flashing outputs of gcc.
But after reinstalling the system(I made a stupid mistake), it seems that after HandleLidswitch is set to "hibernate", it completely shutdown the computer, which stick to the defination of hibernate, but not what I want.
How can I get the good old feature back? Thanks in advance!

You can set HandleLidSwitch=ignore and then set what you want with acpid.

Skype Voucher Accepted, But NOT credited to my acc...

This will be the 2nd time I have attempted to contact an offical person to resolve my problems.
1. I am located within the US
2. Calling a cell in the solomon islands.
3. Calls are $1.79 a min, cheapest I have found and have good quality.
4. Subscriptions are NOT available for solomon islands!
5. Your $25 monthly credit cap is crap! At $1.79 a min that goes in no time!
6. Have to buy gift card to add credits. It worked once.
7. Purchased "voucher" you accepted it, but NO credit applied!
8. Retried and says already used.
9. Now I am stuck at $.09 credit, made no calls and you pocketed my $50.00!
10. Tis sad that you have NO support channels. You really should be ashamed of yourself.
11. I will await an email but I am sure there will be no reasponse. Rest assured FCC and BBB will be notified of your shady actions.
12. Thanks for nothing **bleep**!

Finally received a response from Kaisa Skype Customer Relations....
On January 13, 2015, the business provided the following information:
Dear Mr F,
My name is Kaisa and I work for Skype Customer Relations Office. My duties include responding to customer complaints.
I received your complaint from BBB that you have experienced issues with Skype. I'm very sorry to read that and I will gladly assist you further.
To protect our customers from fraud, we set limits for the purchase of Skype Credit and subscriptions. These are simply protections Skype puts in place to watch out for out-of-the-ordinary purchase activity.
If your payment is declined, your best option is to try again later. Check out our ways to pay.
The Order # xxxxxxxxxxxxx was created but not Delivered, this means that the voucher credit was not applied to the account. The order status Created usually means that your order hasn't been finished yet. You have most likely initiated your purchase using a selected payment method but haven't continued. Therefore, your order had been stopped before your payment actually reached the payment service provider. You can try again. You can find the full list of order statuses with explanations on our support page and in the FAQ: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA288/
Skype provides different methods of assistance if you wish to resolve the issues with the product:
Skype FAQ's https://support.skype.com/en/
Skype Community: http://community.skype.com/
In addition we provide technical assistance by Skype Customer Service via email and chat: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA1170
I hope this response has been helpful.
We apologize for any possible inconveniences caused by this.
I appreciate your patience and understanding.
Kind regards,

*If your payment is declined, your best option is to try again later.
Tried 15 times, all declined/refused. Lie number 1.
*You have most likely initiated your purchase using a selected payment method but haven't continued.
No I completed the transaction, hence the order number. And a bit of ignorance in not having the ability to read and comprehend what I have already said many times. Lie number 2.
*Skype provides different methods of assistance if you wish to resolve the issues with the product:
Live chat is unable to resolve credit problems. Plus there is NO email support. Lie number 3.
And did you note that there was NO resolve whatsoever!

Can you check for data in one table or another but not both in one query?

I have a situation where I need to link two tables together but the data may be in another (archive) table or different records are in both but I want the latest record from either table:
ACCOUNT
AccountID Name
123 John Doe
124 Jane Donaldson
125 Harold Douglas
MARKETER_ACCOUNT
Key AccountID Marketer StartDate EndDate
1001 123 10526 8/3/2008 9/27/2009
1017 123 10987 9/28/2009 12/31/4712 (high date ~ which means currently with this marketer)
1023 124 10541 12/03/2010 12/31/4712
ARCHIVE
Key AccountID Marketer StartDate EndDate
1015 124 10526 8/3/2008 12/02/2010
1033 125 10987 01/01/2011 01/31/2012
So my query needs to return the following:
123 John Doe 10526 8/3/2008 9/27/2009
124 Jane Donaldson 10541 12/03/2010 12/31/4712 (this is the later of the two records for this account between archive and marketer_account tables)
125 Harold Douglas 10987 01/01/2011 01/31/2012 (he is only in archive, so get this record)
I'm unsure how to proceed in one query. Note that I am reading in possibly multiple accounts at a time and returning a collection back to .net
open CURSOR_ACCT
 select AccountID
 from
 ACCOUNT A,
 MARKETER_ACCOUNT M,
 ARCHIVE R
 where A.AccountID = nvl((select max(M.EndDate) from Marketer_account M2
 where M2.AccountID = A.AccountID),
 (select max(R.EndDate) from Archive R2
 where R2.AccountID = A.AccountID)
 and upper(A.Name) like parameter || '%'
<can you do a NVL like this? probably not... I want to be able to get the MAX record for that account off the MarketerACcount table OR the max record for that account off the Archive table, but not both>
(parameter could be "DO", so I return all names starting with DO...)

if I understand your description I would assume that for John Dow we would expect the second row from marketer_account ("high date ~ which means currently with this marketer"). Here is a solution with analytic functions:
drop table account;
drop table marketer_account;
drop table marketer_account_archive;
create table account (
 id number
, name varchar2(20)
insert into account values (123, 'John Doe');
insert into account values (124, 'Jane Donaldson');
insert into account values (125, 'Harold Douglas');
create table marketer_account (
 key number
, AccountId number
, MktKey number
, FromDt date
, ToDate date
insert into marketer_account values (1001, 123, 10526, to_date('03.08.2008', 'dd.mm.yyyy'), to_date('27.09.2009', 'dd.mm.yyyy'));
insert into marketer_account values (1017, 123, 10987, to_date('28.09.2009', 'dd.mm.yyyy'), to_date('31.12.4712', 'dd.mm.yyyy'));
insert into marketer_account values (1023, 124, 10541, to_date('03.12.2010', 'dd.mm.yyyy'), to_date('31.12.4712', 'dd.mm.yyyy'));
create table marketer_account_archive (
 key number
, AccountId number
, MktKey number
, FromDt date
, ToDate date
insert into marketer_account_archive values (1015, 124, 10526, to_date('03.08.2008', 'dd.mm.yyyy'), to_date('02.12.2010', 'dd.mm.yyyy'));
insert into marketer_account_archive values (1033, 125, 10987, to_date('01.01.2011', 'dd.mm.yyyy'), to_date('31.01.2012', 'dd.mm.yyyy'));
select key, AccountId, MktKey, FromDt, ToDate
 , max(FromDt) over(partition by AccountId) max_FromDt
from marketer_account
union all
select key, AccountId, MktKey, FromDt, ToDate
 , max(FromDt) over(partition by AccountId) max_FromDt
from marketer_account_archive;
with
basedata as (
select key, AccountId, MktKey, FromDt, ToDate
from marketer_account
union all
select key, AccountId, MktKey, FromDt, ToDate
from marketer_account_archive
basedata_with_max_intervals as (
select key, AccountId, MktKey, FromDt, ToDate
 , row_number() over(partition by AccountId order by FromDt desc) FromDt_Rank
from basedata
filtered_basedata as (
select key, AccountId, MktKey, FromDt, ToDate from basedata_with_max_intervals where FromDt_Rank = 1
select a.id
 , a.name
 , b.MktKey
 , b.FromDt
 , b.ToDate
from account a
join filtered_basedata b
 on (a.id = b.AccountId)
ID NAME MKTKEY FROMDT TODATE
123 John Doe 10987 28.09.2009 31.12.4712
124 Jane Donaldson 10541 03.12.2010 31.12.4712
125 Harold Douglas 10987 01.01.2011 31.01.2012
If your tables are big it could be necessary to do the filtering (according to your condition) in an early step (the first CTE).

HT1386 I have synced the items from itunes to an iphone 4 without problem, except the two albums I just purchased did not sync. They show up on the itunes on my desktop and on my ipod, but not on the new iphone. What do I need to do?

I have an itunes account and an ipod, and when I purchased 2 albums on the computer they synced straight to the ipod. I bought an iphone and used the usb cord from the computer to it to sync the itunes albums to the new phone. Everything transfered, and those were albums I had uploaded (not purchased from the itunes store), except the two albmus I just purchased from the itunes store. They appear on my itunes on the computer and ipod, but not on the iphone. What did I fail to do or did I do incorrectly?

This might sound weird, but here's an idea which worked for me re music that was newly added to itunes and showed up in my ipod but wouldn't play - I simply played the tracks in itunes first, just a second of time or so will do it, not the whole track, then connect the ipod and sync again and this time they played - hope this helps.

Sharepoint Foundation - search working for some users (or computers), but not others

Hi all,
We have doozy of a search problem with SharePoint Foundation 2010 that I'm hoping someone can help with.
We have an application that is listening on port 14197 and search is working just fine, but only for one or two users.
If I do a search while logged in using the account we set the application up with then the search works fine and it returns records as expected.
If I use a different account - one that has full control over the app, then the exact same search fails with the following message:
We did not find any results for 06BSL.
Suggestions:
Ensure words are spelled correctly.
Try using synonyms or related searches.
Try broadening your search by searching from a different site.
Additional resources:
Get additional search tips by visiting Search Help
If you cannot find a page that you know exists, contact your administrator.
We've done everything we can think of, including several procedures to create new search accounts, replace databases, etc.
Nothing has helped and all of the info we can find online is in relation to getting search working when it doesn't work at all. In our case it is working, but only for some users. We thought it might have been a permissions issue, but not matter
what permissions we seem to give to test accounts they still don't work. We've set up a test account, for example, that is a member of the 'application owners' group, but cannot produce any search results with it.
The SharePoint Foundation server is running on Windows 2008 Server Foundation, with a separate SBS 2003 DC.
Any help most appreciated.

Hi Alex, thanks for your response and apologies about the late reply - didn't realise someone had responded until now!
Agreed that this looks like a permissions issue, but we're stumped as to what it could be. The 'test' account displays this problem - if we try and search on 06BSL
we get no results, but it does appear that this account has full control over this document (see below).
Note that the 'Manage Permissions' page presents a comment 'This list item inherits permissions from its parent. (Customer QA & Product Management)' which is what we're
expecting.
The indexing schedule is set to 5 minutes.
Appreciate your help with this, as we've spent a huge amount of time on this problem but don't seem to be any closer to a resolution.
Cheers,
Damian

Why does GarageBand audio work for guest user but not my account?

Hello, I have a 15-inch MacBook Pro (2.2 GHz Intel Core i7, 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3) from late 2011 that I bought brand new in 2012. I'm running OS X Mavericks 10.9.4 and my MacBook has 500 GB of storage.
About a month or two ago I tried to download the new GarageBand (10.0.2) but I had trouble completing the loops download. The download would stop halfway through because of a network error. So last week I decided to try to download it again, and I was able to do so after reading some discussions about the issue. I successfully completed the download in safety mode and then I restarted my MacBook. At this point I was able to open GarageBand 10.0.2 and create a new project. Unfortunately, there was no audio coming through the output and sound bar for the various audio components in GarageBand. I had no audio when previewing the loops or playing it back in an audio track. I didn't really test anything else out because I figured I needed to fix this problem first. I have read many discussion boards about audio problems with GarageBand. I have already made sure everything is set properly in the GarageBand preferences and the audio preferences in system preferences. I've tried restarting GarageBand and restarting the computer.
This evening I found a discussion from the username icewhatice and they seemed to have had my exact problem. I'm not sure that I found the answer on this discussion though. For reference, this is what icewhatice posted: "I have no audio coming from Garageband 10.0.2. Downloaded it on Saturday and have spent the last two days trying to figure out why it won't work. I'm using a macbook pro with an Alesis QX49. GB registers keyboard when I plug it in but no sound whatsoever, not even from the onscreen keyboard. It seems to read the keyboard as if I play a C chord, it appears in the display. I've done all the obvious stuff like check preferences, restart, I've deleted and downloaded new GB several times and always with same result. Actually, it took me about four attempts to download it in the first place as I was getting an internet connection error message right at the end of the download, and I see others have had that problem. Managed to solve that by downloading in safe mode but now the no sound thing is driving me absolutely crazy because I can't play my keyboard!!!!! Also, worth noting that there is no audio level being read anywhere, I believe in the new version this appears in the volume control at the top. I've also looked into it potentially being a problem with my keyboard and it possibly needing an update but can't find any difinitive answer for that anywhere. I've stopped looking into that because the on screen keyboard doesn't even work - if that worked then I would know at least GB works and it's something to do with the keyboard. So, I am at a complete loss. If anyone has any ideas about why this is happening or what I could do to solve then I would be very grateful."
After reading this, I realized that I am unable to create new tracks, and I realized that I have the same problems with old projects saved from the last version of GarageBand I had. I have not tried to download GarageBand again since it did not work for icewhatice. léonie ended this post by saying: "Something is certainly wrong - either the current project, some settings in your user account, or the downloaded GarageBand version. Or incompatible software may be interfering. If a new project does not work, try to test by logging into a different user account, for example the "Guest User" account. Create a new project using this account. Does GarageBand work better from this account? Then we will need to troubleshoot your preferences."
I have tried this and started a new GarageBand project in the "Guest User" account. GarageBand was working fine in the "Guest User" account and all of the audio was working properly. Does anyone know how I should troubleshoot my preferences?

If an application is working in a different account, but not in your regular account,try t find out, what you configured differently in your own account, for example start-up items or preference panes you are using, applications and other helper tools, that are only installed for your regular account. As a first guess, remove GarageBands preference files from the user library in your Home folder.
But you will have to reset all settings you did in the GarageBand preferences dialog. And GarageBand will not remember the last project. You'll have to find the file manually.
Remove these files from your User Library to a folder on your Desktop:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.garageband10/
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.garageband.plist
~/Library/Caches/garageband
Quit GarageBand, then remove the files to a folder on the Desktop and restart the computer, before trying again to open GarageBand.
You user library may still be hidden, as is the default in Mavericks: To open your hidden user library:
Select the "Home" folder icon (the little house) in the Finder's sidebar and press the key combination ⌘J to open the "view options".
Enable "Show Library Folder".
Then open the Home folder and open the Library folder inside and navigate to the Preferences, Caches, or Containers folder. Remove these folders completely - don't leave anything inside: ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.garageband10/,
~/Library/Caches/garageband .

Latest revision of firefox.
After using firefox for a while if I exit, parent.lock is locked and i have to reboot to reload firefox.
I have killed all firefox applications from task manager (usually there are none). and I have tried 3 different "file unlock" programs including unlocker to no avail.
I also recently installed a program that shows -all- open files, and parent.lock is not listed, and thus not closable/unlockable from there.

My problem: can't get Google or Facebook to load on Firefox. Something odd. Other pages load, but not those. I go to open: and I get a blank page and tab that says Untitled. Google was my default page. please help me resolve

A few minutes earlier this morning, I couldn't get Firefox to load any pages. I was led to one page from this process and I disabled under Add-ons in Tools I disabled the only thing I found --a Google toolbox. and I went back. Tried again, now i get other pages, but not google or facebook. Help please.

Double-click/Drag-&-drop Photoshop files opens application but not file or I get a message saying that some files in Application Support are missing and I have to reinstall. (Photoshop CS/CS2/CS3)

This is most commonly due to installing Photoshop CS/CS2 before doing an archive and install of Mac OS10.3 or OS10.4. One solution is to reinstall Photoshop 7/CS/CS3 after you have installed Mac OS10.3 or OS 10.4. If you have Photoshop 7 and 8(CS), the easiest way to reinstall Photoshop (without disturbing the original installation) is to install to your desktop. After the install is done just trash the Photoshop folder on the desktop. Note: This will only work with Photoshop 7 and 8(CS) but not with 9 (CS2). Photoshop CS2 you must delete the Photoshop CS2 folder. If you have any 3rd party Plugins or presets remove them from the folder before deleting. Just placing the folder in the trash will not work it must be deleted. After reinstalling CS2 you can now put all 3rd party Plugins and presets back in the new folder. --------------------------- Another solution courtesy Anne Shelbourne Open your Previous System folder. Find "Adobe Unit Types". Copy it into: <Your current system Hard Drive>/Library/ScriptingAdditions/ Then reboot your Mac. --------------------------- However, if you happen to be running a non-English version, like Photoshop CS CE or Photoshop CS ME, it appears the missing file does not get installed. You would need to install and delete the international English version first.

The problem you got into is a known problem after updating to Tiger. It is a small 4K file that gets trashed with the update. It is called the Adobe Unit Types. Both Photoshop and Photoshop Elements need this file to function.
One way to get it back is to reinstall Photoshop, the other is to add this file again.
You can get the file from here http://www.dd.se/Tips/bildbehandling/downloads/AdobeUnitTypes.zip
It is only 3,7 KB big.
You put the file you download here:
[hard disk] /Library/ScriptingAdditions. If you don't have a Scripting Additions folder, you create it.
As you trashed Photoshop, you need to completely deinstall it to be able to reinstall it.
