Challenge to all

On the client side of a web based application I am filling a text filed named "text1" with some baltic characters with Hex dump
66 f6 and e5
a servlet is supposed to read this from the form
Carrying out a snoop shows that the data is transferred correctly
However dumping the bytes in the servlet returns garbage.
String caption = new String(rq.getParameter("text1").getBytes(), "UTF8" );
for (int ii = 0 ; ii< caption.length(); ii++)
System.out.println("Upload 210 Caption " + Integer.toHexString(caption.charAt(ii)));
I have tried String caption = new String(rq.getParameter("text1"));
as well but no use?
Its pretty interesting behaviour. Cannot use rq.serCharacterEncoding() as am using Servlets 2.2. Cant shift to 2.3. Management decision.
Where are all the bytes getting lost?

still struggling with this.

    Good luck!
    to get a solution you need to provide the members of this forum with details regarding your PA set-up.
    PA is normally very customer driven, so not standard.
    Without information regarding your structure there you will not get any solution.

  • Here ia a challenge to all Geeks!

    Hi I have just discovered that  seatools dos does not recognize my HD. So I downloaded two more dos programs. WD and Hitachi dos. They do not recognize my HD either. I have been fighting this all week end, and I haven't found a answer to this problem; so I offer a challenge to all members and Geeks. What is the problem?? WD exe is the only App that thinks I'm alive. My PC is running flawless, but would like to check HD with a dos program. This is crazy or maybe I'm crazy. I have at least 6 coaters to give away. I may consider a reward for the solution I will try to suppy all the information that is asked for. I really hate being defeated, but I'm out of ideas on this one. Each of the programs ask me for a serial number, but won't except the one in screen shot. I will try all and every suggestion that is offered.
    Dokie!!
    PS I hace at least 8 CD's with bootable dos to give away.
    I Love my Satellite L775D-S7222 Laptop. Some days you're the windshield, Some days you're the bug. The Computer world is crazy. If you have answers to computer problems, pass them forward.

    WD exe passed the extended test, but  the WD dos will not recognize the HD . That makes no sense to me at all. Three different dos programs and none of them recognize my Hitachi HD. I suppose I should be happy that my HD is healthy and I am but this is crazy.
    Dokie!
    PS I hate computers

  • Challenge for all of you with SL and printer issues

    I have an iMac with an Epson Stylus C-88+. Let's try an experiment. Pick a sample web page, in the Title Bar, go to File/Print, or Command-P. Go to the lower left hand corner, you have the purple question, then"PDF"/ Click/ "Save as PDF"/ Click. You should be able to find a copy of that website where you save documents in pdf. Because this is all within the machine, there are NO connectivity issues. I failed both in printing and pdf. Anybody out there have better luck?

    John Blanchard: Sir, try it for yourself and come to your own conclusion. Each situation is different. I am beginning to think the problem is not just be the printer / print driver, but just may be 'Snow Leopard'. Apple needs to become more involved, not just the printer companies. You write, "Are you saying that saving to PDF doesn't work?" All I'm saying is this, "For me, it did not work. You must explore the situation to determine the functionality of your own individual system. For me, earlier on Saturday, I was printing through the printer AND printing to disk (PDF). I later did a "Software Update" including Epson Printer Update. Later in the morning, I went back online and was going to print a disk or PDF, but it would not function. I called AppleCare and explained the situation. The Tech told me to try my printer, I ask him "Well, what are we going to do?" This is the first time I discovered the problem was also with the printer. The Tech said, "YOU are going to call the printer manufacturer and inform THEM of THEIR problem." I said, I didn't get this update from Epson. I got it from AppleCare!" AppleCare wants us to keep our systems up to date. Well, I've got an updated system that is also (REDACTED). Terms not acceptable for a discussion board!

  • Challenge for all you great programmers out there...i need help!

    Okay, my name is Tom. I am attending a small private
    college where the computer program is very small. There are
    no Java professors or any professors with any experience.
    The library has only 3 beginner books on Java as well. So,
    for my extremely ambitious Internal Internship Project I
    need some help. I have taken a beginner course and am very
    apt to learning, so this shouldn't be over my head. Now to
    the project:
    GUI
    I have envisioned a utility automation program. Basically,
    There is 1 main pane in the GUI. I have already designed it
    but am open to suggestions. It consists of the important
    parts: The utilty buttons (on the left), the textArea (in
    the middle), and checkboxes (on the right). When opening
    the program, the textArea will simply display instructions
    on how to use the program. There will be as many buttons as
    utilities there are (for now i am experimenting with
    defrag), and the checkboxes will be aligned with the
    utility buttons but to the right of the textArea.
    Function
    When each utility button is clicked, a description of the
    utility comes up in the textArea. If you decide to use it
    then check the appropriate checkbox to the right of the
    textArea. Once you choose all the utilities that you want
    to do, then you hit the start button.
    Execution
    This will automate all of the programs so you can leave and
    come back.
    Things needed
    I need to know how to import text files to the textArea,
    how to program the textAreas to come up, and one final
    thing for now. I will have to somehow set the parameters to
    those applications automatically (Ex: "what drive to
    defrag"). So, my first thought would be create a popup
    window that asks for all of the parameters needed for each
    utility, define those values as variables, and then when
    the utilities ask for them in the automation feed them the
    variables.
    I have put about 25 hours into making the GUI, and
    designing the structure. I need a ton of help if I want to
    get this done. I am using Netbeans for convenience but I'm
    not sure i know how to insert custom code.
    Any help the ANYONE can give me would be extremely
    appreciated.
    Thanks to all, and have a great day.
    Tom

  • Urgent Tricky problem... I challenge you all....

    I'm working on a very cool freeware Java text editor, that is working beautifully, except for the code used to change the color of reserved words, etc, on the fly...
    At the moment, I use a documentlistener. When text is inserted, I need to color some of that text automatically. However, when I try to call setCharacterAttributes in DefaultStyledDocument, it causes a runtime exception, Illegal State Exception (Attempt to mutate in notification)>
    I understand how this exception is caused, but how do I get around it?

    Hi,
    You'll need to modify the color after your DocumentListener event handling is finished.
    SwingUtilities.invokeLater( new Runnable() {
      public void run() {
        //setCharacterAttributes ...
    });Then the change is done when the document is no longer locked.
    Hope this helps,
    Kurt.

  • I DON'T want to store any data on my MBA. I want to store all data or 90% of it on a NAS

    All I have is a 13inch Macbook Air mid2011 128gb flash storage. And the expertise from you guys able to reply to me *
    My goal is to set up a NAS ( how do I do this?)... as of writing I am intending to buy an airport express 802.11n.
    Will the airport express allow my MBA and any other device for that matter to print wirelessly?
    Can I connect sub/sound systems wirelessly to Itunes library through airport express.
    Next I want to buy an Imac to act as a desktop but also as Server. I don't want to rely on my MBA to hold data as I want it to be purely for carrying out task optimally. *So for your answers sake please reply as if I'm ignorant to computing as I am largely hoping to learn almost step by step method to carry out this endeavour of mine.
    Should the IMAC be connected to a NAS- buy a DS411j or DROBO FS? ---> and the NAS be connected to the airport express---> and the airport express is the gateway for any device including my MBA to pick up data (like to print), store away data (resumes,essays), play data (movies,music), act as a backup (imac holds storage, NAS holds a copy of storage in case imac fails or vice versa.
    this might give current context: linksys router (lounge room) ---> macbook air (m/r). my room = m/r
    this is dream context: linksys router (lounge room) ---> macbook air (m/r) --->airport express (m/r) --->nas (m/r) ---> imac(m/r)

    That is ultimately my desireable outcome, but I am stupid and want to make sure it 100% correct and functional! Now.. is this just a pipe dream?! Can I do it with just the replys or email from you guys?Should I get someonelse to do it for me? Or is it going to be bottlenecked and this scenario won't work at all?
    If I should chop and change the supply chain management of devices, please educate me. I am not claiming to know much. But I am totally here to learn from you 5x,10x more than I wrote. Maybe it's easier if I contact you through email.
    Sorry if I wasted your time, If any one would like to help me take this challenge; break all this down to where to begin and how to move on to next step. Should I buy all of this at once. or step by step.
    Even if you read thru all this and don't have time to reply huge amounts, please just redirect me with links.
    Finally thanks

    There is a world of information in these forums if you use the search function near the top right of this page. Just type in NAS for example and you get many threads on the subject (marked with a green checkmark if it solved the question) another example would be Airport Exterme and sound system. Once you formulate your ideas better then specific questions can be addressed one at a time. You may find that a less expensive choice for a server might be a mac mini. Good luck with your project, ask more specific questions and update you systems profile.

  • Circular arc challenge

    Hi,
    This is an amazing motion control challnge that I'm putting forward to u guys. I am currently using NI PCI7344 motion controller for 3 axis + spindle motion control system. Before this I have used Fanuc and Fagor CNC controllers which understand G-codes and M-codes. Now, in my application, I want to do simple two axis circular interpolation to draw an arc. LabVIEW provides a VI for drawing an arc. We need to provide the "Start angle", "Travel angle" and "Radius" for drawing an arc using that VI. I'm trying to develop a VI, where I feed the "target position", "radius" and "Clock Wise/Anticlock Wise" to draw an arc. The fanuc and fagor controllers provide this facility. Lets see how NI can compete with them. My application involves parsing and transalation of G-codes and M-codes. If this is done, then using my application, a user can feed the same G-codes and M-codes that are understood by Fanuc and Fagor CNC controllers. This will help eliminate CNC and make people buy PC Based controllers. In this way engineers all over the world, who are conversant with G-codes and M-codes can easily shift towards PC Based control which is much easy to use and upgrade. Hence its a challenge for all motion control guys in NI to try implement this one and proide me with a VI.

    Hi Giridhar,
    It sounds like you have a great understanding of how our arc move VI's work.  Using LabVIEW it is definitely possible to write and implement code that would translate target position, radius, and direction parameters to the start angle, travel angle, and radius parameters need to perform arc moves using our functions.  We at National Instruments provide LabVIEW as a flexible tool that can be used to write programs that can take user input and convert that data to parameters that can be used by our hardware.  We in the Applications Engineering department are here to support the software, functions, and hardware that we provide, but we can't write custom programs for our customers.  With your understanding of how our motion VI's work, it should be a simple matter of adding extra LabVIEW code to your VI to translate the parameters.  Good luck and have a great day.

  • 2nd Generation Ipod WIFI Challenges HELP PLEASE

    I have a 2nd generation Ipod Touch that I cant get to log onto my WIFI network at home? I have a Blackberry device that all I do is put the network WEP key in and no challenges at all, although the Touch finds the network it wont connect?
    If anyone could help that would be fantastic.
    Many Thanks
    Arran

    Hi Arran,
    Try Resetting Network Settings on the iPhone, go to Settings> General> Reset> Reset Network Settings.
    How many characters are in the WEP password? You'll want to use a 5 or 13 character WEP password to improve compatibility with all devices, or switch to WPA2 personal.

  • Coding challenge suggestion

    I received my introduction to Labview last summer with the Tic Tac Toe coding challenge and had a great time doing it!  I'm a bit suprised another one hasn't been run since then.  In keeping with the principle of Tic Tac Toe I have a few ideas for a coding challenge:
    (These all are based around game theory concepts because that is what I find fun and interesting.)
    In all of these games the winner of the match is the program that scores more points.  I propose the overall challenge winner is decided by W-L record from the matches rather than a sum of points from all matches.  I also think each match should be run with some known N number of games.  Having a known end point introduces some interesting decisions.
    Prisoner's Dilemma - Straight 1v1 heads up play
    (Possible point values: A&B stay silent - 3, 3;  A defects & B stays silent - 5, 0;  A&B defect - 1, 1)
    Since always choosing Defect guarantees against a loss, maybe there should be some minimum score that must be achieved in order to qualify for a win.  For example, given a match of 100 games, if A Defects every game while B employs the common Tit for Tat strategy, at the end of the game A will win with 104 points agaunst B's 99 points.  If both of them remain silent for the entire game each will score 300 points.  Maybe the qualification score should be 200 or so.
    Diner's Dilemma - A multiplayer version of Prisoner's Dilemma
    Multi Choice Prisoner's Dilemma - A PD variant that allows each player more than one choice
    "Consider the following two-player game: both players simultaneously choose a whole number from 0 to 3. Both players then win the smaller of the two numbers in points. In addition, if one player chooses a larger number than the other, then s/he has to give up two points to the other." Copied from Wikipedia
    For example, if A choses 3 and B chooses 2, each player receives the small of the two numbers or 2 in this case.  Furthermore, A forfeits 2 of his points to B because he chose the higher number.  Final outcome for this game is A=0, B=4.
    Thoughts?  Critiques?

  • How to get line no of row whsoe button is pushed in step loop display

    Hi experts.
    In step loop i have a button too with the other fields.which is being displayed on the left side of every row.now i just want that to get the no of that row of which the button is pushed.
    i am using GET_CURSOR_LINE but it fails i.e when a cursor is in third row and i press the button of 2nd row, in this way it gives me the line no 3 but it should be the 2.
    Note: I am using step loops not the table control in dynamic programing.
    it is a great challenge for all experts.

    hi experts hi.
    what happend.
    does any body know nothing
    plz just tell that iz it possible.
    or any help...any any help

  • Macbook pro to external monitor help

    Hello,
    I have a 13 inch early 2011 Macbook Pro that I would like to connect to a Samsung Syncmaster 2233 monitor. I am pretty technologically challenged so all I want is for someone to tell me exactly which cable(s) I need to connect the two.
    Thanks!

    Your Syncmaster supports VGA and DVI ports.
    You Macbook Pro has a Thunderbolt port.
    You need to buy a Thunderbolt to VGA or Thunderbolt to DVI adapter.
    Since Thunderbolt is also Mini-DisplayPort you can also use any Mini-DisplayPort to VGA or to DVI adapter.

    Doesn´t appear Personal Hotspot option after updating to iOS 8?

    I Had the same challenge and all I did was switch off my iPad. Remove the SIM card from the tray. Switch the iPad back on again, reinsert the SIM card and bingo! The hotspot showed up again.

  • Huge customer service failure

    After more than eleven years with Verizon Wireless, I was shocked by the events of this past week.
    I have a phone that a family member uses.  On Saturday, he came to me and said that he was unable to text.  I called techincal support.  After about 30 minutes, the tech gave up, said that the phone was broken and the I had to get a new one.  Luckily, I qualified for the new every two.
    Sunday after church, we went to the Verizon store.  I had the tech there check out the phone and he confirmed that the phone was broken.  Unfortunately, the Verizon store in Reston at Spectrum Plaza had NO free phones.  The cheapest was $60!  I spent 90 minutes in the store and walked out no better.
    I called the customer service department hoping that they could fix things and get the store to give me a free phone.  No luck, but they did send me to telephone sales who sent us a free phone.  (30 more minutes on the phone)
    On Tuesday,the phone had not arrived and  we tried to make a phone call and realized that it wasn't just broken text messaging.  We could call Verizon from the phone.  At this point, I realized that the phone wasn't broken, but verizon's network was.  I called techincal support and after 60 minutes, my old phone was up and working.
    On Wednesday, we recieved the new phone.  
    Today, I called to request a credit for (1) the 4 days that we had no service and (2) the 3.5 hours of my time wasted by several incompetent Verizon employees.
    The representative offered me 50 minutes of additional calls on my phone which would expire in 2 months.  Worthless.  I spoke to a supervisor  (Brian #43768).  After 30 minutes on the phone, they refused to issue ANY credit to my account and Brian refused to allow me to talk to his superviser.  I kept telling him that he had not resolved my issue and he eventually hung up on me.
    After 11 years and over $20,000 spent, you would think that Verizon would be a little more friendly.
    The only thing that I did get was permission to return the phone without a restocking fee.  My two year contract is up on May 27th.

    eurbani, we are sorry to learn about your experience with resolving the text messaging issue. While our commitment is to resolve the issue the first time you contact us, this can be challenging when all troubleshooting steps are done and no resolution.  At times, a replacement phone would be the appropriate solution. 
    You are a valued customer and hope we can find a satisfying conclusion. We will be sending you a message to personally assist you further.

  • Prevent automatic release of intercompany project

    Hi,
    Currently, when an intercompany project is created from a sales order, it is automatically released. The user does not have a chance to change the project ID due to this behavior. Is there any way to prevent this from happening i.e., the project should be created in In Planning status till it is manually released. I did not see any scoping or fine-tuning to achieve this. Thanks in advance and please let me know if more details are needed.
    Regards,
    Harish Toppae

    perhaps I can better also explain the problem.
    the process now is that there is a word marco with a fill in form that collects all the data necessary to process a request.
    when all data is filled in the form (like 30 seperate fields) it is send to the administration who translate the form into a serviceorder and a purchaseorder with account assignment the purchase order after it is approved. the approval however for these orders goes on paper. (for example it is about construction works like building or renovations)
    Now the idea was to make the approval process digital.
    first option: release strategy on PR's
    problem : no knowledge on how to set this up available in the company ( I also tried to figure it out, any guide for dummies on this is appreciated)
    second option:
    Sent PR to SRM and let SRM do the release strategy.
    advantage:
    - users can approve just by clicking approve in email, they don't have to login to srm for this. (is that also possible in R3 ?)
    - knowledge on how release strategy works in srm is available.
    - easy to trace the approval workflow for a user.
    When I think of it perhaps I can also create a shoppingcart straigth away from R3 with the bapi and skip the PR at all
    BAPI_SCEC_CREATE or with BBP_PD_SC_CREATE. 
    third option:
    programm BSP for the requirement is quite challenging since all the fields that are required before a PR or SC can be created is quite a lot. further on I have to programm the generation of a serviceorder in the backend and return the number to be set as accounting order.
    if you have any other suggestions they are also more than welcome.
    ps nice a pdf with instructions on how to implement enhancements which are not copy pastable
    kind regards
