Collection of data - SL 10.6.3

Could please someone explain this point to me? The linked article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4063?viewlocale=de_DE does not work. Thanks.

The kinds of information this feature will send to Apple will be about system performance and problems, not personal data (such as web sites visited, etc.) I see this as a good thing and nothing to get paranoid about. By getting automated reports from the field Apple will have a much better picture of what's going on in the "wild" where users have an almost endless array of configurations, devices, applications, all of which can interact in ways a lab environment could never predict. This feature will help OS X engineers track and analyze issues that arise in normal usage.
Of course, as the article states, this feature has to be accepted explicitly and turned on by the user. There will be those who will be concerned that their private information is somehow being snooped on by Apple. I think this would be a complete misunderstanding of the purpose. I myself intend to have this feature on and running from the start. I see it as helping to improve OS X over time.

Apex Collections and dates

Apex Collections and Dates
I made an earlier posting today on the forum titled “‘ORA-01861: literal does not match format string’ error after my hosting company upgraded to Apex 3.2.” The issue relates to Apex collections and dates. Prior to the hosting company upgrading Apex 3.2 from 3.1 all was working OK. It seemed a reasonable assumption that the issue relates to the upgrade to 3.2. Having tested the code against another Apex 3.2 installation I am satisfied that the issue is not with Apex 3.2. That said, I am still getting the issue on the hosting site.
To demonstrate the issue to my hosting company and this forum, I put together a simple one page application that demonstrates the issue using the least amount of code.
I created a page with an ‘On Load – Before header” process that sets up an Apex Collection with a single value of ’20-FEB-2009’ in the c001 element as follows:
if apex_collection.collection_exists(p_collection_name=>'THEISSUE') then
apex_collection.delete_collection(p_collection_name=>'THEISSUE');
end if;
apex_collection.create_collection(p_collection_name => 'THEISSUE');
APEX_COLLECTION.ADD_MEMBER(
p_collection_name => 'THEISSUE',
p_c001 => '20-FEB-2009');
I added an SQL REPORT region to the page which uses the Apex Collection as follows:
select to_date(c001,'DD-MON-YYYY') testdate
from apex_collections
where collection_name='THEISSUE'
and to_date('20-FEB-2009','DD-MON-YYYY')
= to_date(c001,'DD-MON-YYYY')
When the page is run I get the ‘ORA-01861: literal does not match format string’ error.
If I remove the following from the SQL Report Region:
and to_date('20-FEB-2009','DD-MON-YYYY')
= to_date(c001,'DD-MON-YYYY')
and run the page, the date is displayed OK, i.e., c001 is converted to a date OK. This made me wonder whether it does not like the line to_date('20-FEB-2009','DD-MON-YYYY')? So I changed the where code for the report to :
and to_date(c001,'DD-MON-YYYY')
= to_date(c001,'DD-MON-YYYY')
i.e., convert c001 to a date and compare it to itself. The rationale being that if the c001 converts to a date OK, then comparing c001 converted to a date with itself should not give an error. It did it gave the same error ‘ORA-01861’
It would seem on my hosting site since the upgrade, that Apex and Oracle have problems with Apex Collection elements being converted to dates as part of the where clause.
Now my understating of Oracle Apex collections in simple terms is that all Apex collections are held in a single Oracle table managed by a series of Apex functions. Given that all Apex collections are in the same table, could the issue be with the Oracle database when it is creating its execution plan for the query? Could Oracle be including the value of c001 from other collections (i.e., when c001 is not in a date format ) in the initial stages of its execution plan?
I hope the above make sense and thanks in advance.
Ian

Scott,
I believe I have found the answer the statistics on WWV_FLOW_COLLECTIONS$ and WWV_FLOW_COLLECTION_MEMBERS$. are out of date and Oracle is doing a full table scan instead of using the indices to select only the c001 columns that belong to the given collection_id. If I change my simple example to store the date value in c050 it works ok. (In all probability this will be the only collection on the hosted database to use c050).
I have asked the hosting company to gather stats on all the apex tables.
Thanks for your help
Ian

How do I perform a trigger that collect the data for every rising edge continuously and then automatically put the data in a .xls file??

I need to collect the data for every rising edge a trigger perfoms. So far I could collect the data but it seems that it only collect the data in the start of triggering, but not continuously. I also want to put the data in an excel spreadsheet and automatically add new set of data when the next rising edge occur. Please help.
thanks a lot.

LabWindows/CVI actually ships with a comprehensive set of examples for just about every area of programming you can use it in, including triggered analog data acquisition and ActiveX control of Microsoft Excel for data logging. Go to the following two directories on your computer to find respective examples for the two areas you are inquiring about:
1) C:\MeasurementStudio\CVI\samples\DAQ\Ai\DAQsingleBufExtTrig.PRJ
2) C:\MeasurementStudio\CVI\samples\activex\excel\excel2000dem.prj
Just make sure to study the examples carefully so that you fully understand the processes followed for triggered analog acquisition and the process of launching an ActiveX automation server for control, and then you should be able to merge the concepts shown in both of the example
s to make the application you desire.

Mass collection of data sources in Transport request.

Hi All,
I want to capture the data sources which are available in RSA5. It is already activated and captured in Transport Request. But the Transport request was deleted by somebody.
I want to re-capture the activation of data sources which are there in RSA5. I want to collect 90 data sources in one Transport request.
Can you please guide me a easy way to capture all the data sources in transport request.
Thanks.

Hi,
you might be able to create a new Transport request and add the datasources manually.
check out the table roosource for the sources. you can find your's by filtering on tstpnm.
add the sources with object 'R3TR' and subobject 'OSOA'.

Siggi

I'm doing a scan around a line by sampling data 360 degrees for every value of z(z is the position on the line). So, that mean I have a double for-loop where I collect the data. The problem comes when I try to plot the data. How should I do?

Jonas,
I think what you want is a 3D plot of a cylinder. I have attached an example using a parametric 3D plot.
You will probably want to duplicate the points for the first theta value to close the cylinder. I'm not sure what properties of the graph can be manipulated to make it easier to see.

How to collect my data from a disk that I suspect to contain a malware

I have experience several crashes the last 72 hours and I have to buy a new hard drive that I am using as an external drive to work from as a startup disk.
Once I install all my software back, how can I collect my data from a hard drive that I am suspecting to contain a malware. I previously use Bitdefender for mac and because I do not know which software is causing the problem, I just install Clamxav.
Please advise.

BitDefender was likely causing the problem.
Just plug it in and transfer the data. You'd have to install the malware for it to affect your Mac, but XProtect blocks all known malware from installing.

Simplest approach for creating database for small collection of data - new project design phase

Hello. I am at the design stage of a VB.NET project, which I hope will help me strengthen some skills I have learnt so far, and learn new ones. I have a couple of questions. Firstly regarding data types, is there a unified, standardised, all-convergent
data type available I can use? Secondly I've read about numerous avenues to create a database, namely binary serialisation, access-based, excel-based, notepad-based - The project I intend to create, will only require storage of a "relatively" small
collection of data, which may grow over time, but not significantly - so, taking this into account, which method is advisable for creating my database? (a beginner-friendly option is preferred). I have included a couple of images, with my questions, to give
a rough idea of what I'm planning to do. Thanks for your advice and suggestions.

Type would be the type of recording, as in LP (Long Play - standard album), EP (Extended Play) or Compilation. Most would be LP.
Chris,
I have a start on this and I want to pause here to post what I have and to discuss it.
There’s a lot to talk about because you’re going from little knowledge of a class to a lot in a hurry. There is no real hurry
in any of this; if you don’t understand then let’s stop and talk about it – until you fully have a handle on it, adding more would only fuel the confusion.
I’ll add this at this juncture: There is no one single right way to do this. There are definitely some
wrong
(or maybe just simply ineffectual) ways, but certainly no single right way. A lot of what you’ll see in the following will reflect my preference; nothing more than that.
Also though, I’m doing some of this to expose you to it. By that I mean that I may or may not have done it this way all along,
but I decided that I want to open the doors, even though at first it’ll seem like you’re trying to get a drink of water from a fire hydrant. ;-)
I have it set up with two namespaces: CMJR and Common. The latter one is for use for what I’m considering to be a ‘common’ need
– things that you may use in several classes. In time, the routines for serialization will be there but no need to even talk about that now so it’s not there.
The code so far (which I’ll show by the end of this discourse) is about 500 lines. For a class library, that’s puny! Most of
what I have thus far is just a shell of what will be filled in later. I won’t at all be surprised that by time this is completed, that 500 lines can easily grow to 5000 lines or more.
Like I said yesterday, the great thing about doing it this way is that it’s done
your
way; the drawback is just how much there is to do though, so if nothing else, this will perhaps influence your decision on how you want to handle things like this in the future.
The namespaces/classes are laid out as:
CMJR
Music (a class)
Film (a class)
Games (a class)
Common
IDataSource (an interface)
IGenre (an interface)
Utilities (a class)
This
image shows the structure of things thus far. The reason why the enum “GenreType” isn’t expanded in that
image is because it’s hugely long! In fact I fully expect that you’ll likely delete most of those. I got them from someone else’s class library (about a decade ago) so it was convenient to use.
Let’s start from the inside and work toward the outside here:
What is an
enum?
An enum (enumeration) is a type all its own. It’s a constant (of integral type) that you define. You can think of it as “an
integer with a name associated with it” because in code, you’ll use it like a multiple-choice selection and [typically] you’ll use its name.
Any time there’s a need for some something to be “this or that”, an enum very often is a useful type to use. In what we talked
about yesterday regarding what the source of the data is (CD or PC), that’s what came to mind; select which of the two from an enum. I always include a “_String” property with these so that it can later be used in whatever will consume the class. Often it’s
nothing more than use the .ToString method of the enum itself, but remember that then enum is actually an integer, not a string.
In this library so far, I have three enums defined. Two of those are in each of two interfaces (discussed in a bit) and one
is specifically related to only the music, so it’s in the class “Music”:
       Public Enum MusicFrom
           LP
           EP
           Compilation
       End Enum
The “type” that I asked about earlier is encompassed in that enum and you can more or less see how it works without any further
explanation.
Do understand that enum is only ‘useful’ for programming. We could use strings for all that it matters, but the problem with
doing that are many, including things like typos and capitalization. That’s not the case with an enum because you select one of the choices offered. In the one above, that would be either LP, EP, or Compilation. It can’t be anything else.
So if strings have this issue with typo’s and the like, what about if we just assigned it a number (an integer). Sure that’s
a better idea but are you really going to remember what 23 means? I doubt it, or not for long.
BUT – if we had a number that has a string associated with it, yea that’s a good idea!
Right! Now you know what an enum is. ;-)
Notice from the
class
diagram though – it’s not shown; I’m not using it all and that’s because I question its worth here, at least
for the current setup. I’ll explain what I mean:
As it’s currently set up, the basic unit of the class “Music” is a song. Even though there’s a title for the album, the album
– as a type – doesn’t exist. LP, EP, and Compilation refer to the album, not the song (in my opinion here) so I don’t see how it can be used.
If, however, we create a new type called “Album”, then I can see how it could be used. In something I worked on a while back
that’s exactly how I have it set up: An album is a “container for songs” and the album (a class in what I’m referring to from a few months back) has certain properties like a name and cover art, etc..
I don’t have this set up that way, but give that some thought.
What is an
interface?
Until quite recently I ‘knew of them’ but I never used them. There may or may not be merit in it here either but I wanted to
expose you to them.
From that link above:
“An
interface defines a set of members, such as properties and procedures, that classes and structures can implement. The interface defines only the signatures of the members and not their internal workings.”
The interface is a way in which you create a ‘code contract’. You don’t define what the methods, properties and events do in
the interface – you define that they have to be implemented if a class uses it.
It’s up to the class to actually put it to use (i.e., the code that’s executed in the member of the interface).
It’s a lot deeper than I’m discussing here – including a fair amount of ambiguity – so I won’t go any further than that for
now.
I have two interfaces set up and I have them in the “Common” namespace. They are “IDataSource” and “IGenre”.
IDataSource has an enum named “SourceType” and two read-only properties (see it later in the code).
The interface IGenre is likewise set up the same way and that’s where the long list of elements are in the enum named “GenreType”
that I talked about earlier.
I think it’s a good idea with Genre that it’s a “pick one of these” rather than simply a string and here’s why: If we later
add in a method to choose songs from a collection of them, one of the options might be of a particular genre. That’s not an uncommon request I would think. By using an enum, we don’t have to worry about your users mistyping when they add the data:
RockAndRoll
Rock and Roll
Rock
…etc., and imagine some of the typos your users might come up with, so by using an enum it’s definitive rather than guessing.
I said that an enum is ‘only for programming though’ so we’ll need to make it more usable later on. For example, I can also
build in methods to hand you back a string array of the string equivalent of those enums and then later a method to turn that string back into the actual enum member. By doing this then the method(s) which will use this will filter the data from the collection
to only include those with that particular genre.
Other than something simple, I’ve learned that once you get involved in a really long enum – like the genre that I showed above
– it’s better to create a class which, all on its own, has methods for handing you the string array and then handling the conversion back to an enum, so that’s a possibility too.
That’s for use in your UI so the blinders will start to come off at that point. ;-)
Continued in a subsequent post…
Still lost in code, just at a little higher level.

Where does Apple collect their Date & Time Information?

I'm trying to isolate a problem for why the date and time for Unalaska and Dutch Harbor, AK when set automatically is on Hawaii Time when it should be on Alaska Time. The islands further west on the Aleutian Island Chain are on Hawaii Time, but not Unalaska Island. While in Unalaska, I have to set date & time on all my Mac devices to manual, and switch it back to automatic whenever I leave. As much as I travel, it is a nuisance having to switch back an forth between automatic and manual. This has been an ongoing problem for the past 2 or 3 years, and previously, it worked correctly.
I've noticed that some date/time websites have it wrong, but some have it correct. So, if I can find out where Apple collects their Date & Time information, I should be able to figure out whether it's an "Apple" problem or an "ISP" problem.

make sure that in your finder preferences you have it checked to show external drives on the desktop and in the sidebar of finder
you find these preferences by selecting the finder icon (blue square on the dock w/ smiley face on it) then click on the work "finder" at top left corner of computer screen then click on preferences then general and put check next to show these items on the desktop and put check next to external drives
now you should see it on the desktop if you still can't open the drive or access it, it may be in format the mac can't read or write to so that could be an issue.

"Service Advisor" option in CAM to try to collect support data ......

I've tried using "Service Advisor" option in CAM to try to collect support data I get the error "The device has been unregistered from this application. Please close this service advisor window.".
How to fix this?
Thank you

Hi.
1. You can use command line for collect support data.
/opt/SUNWsefms/bin/supportData -d <array_name> -p /tmp -o supportdata
Result : /tmp/supportdata.zip
2. For trubleshuting current problem, please show result of:
cd /var/opt/SUNWsefms/store/Reports
for i in report* cache*
do
echo $i
perl -ane '/[^[:ascii:]]/ and print;' < $i
doneHow many arrays registered in the CAM ?
Check that for this array work next point in CAM:
-> Trubleshuting -> FRU
-> Trubleshuting -> Events

Your first task should be to just be able to send commands to the instrument. Do as Dennis suggested and download the drivers for the instrument and get familiar with them. Build up small VIs that do little tasks with those drivers so you can get used to them. Then worry about your main interface.

How can collect the data from laptop sound card and serial port at the same time?

I'm working on a project, I need to collect the data from laptop sound card, and also from serial port at the same time.

A smarter way is just to put all your code in the same VI.
Two parallel loops if rates are different.

HyperTrends not collecting/displaying data and no alarms displayed

Hypertrends quit collecting/displaying data. Alarms are not being displayed in alarm window although alarm processing is working as evidenced by DDE link to callout software.

Is the hypertrend on the server computer or the client computer?
If you reopen the process, will it recover?
Did anything change, such as the network, the firewall?
Go to MAX to see if the data is logged in the database. What's the Lookout version?

Online Form to Collect Personal Data

I use formmailer.php as a contact form. Is it safe to use this form mailer program to collect personal data from applicants online? They will be supplying thier social security numbers and home addresses is why I am asking.
Or is there another form/security measure I should take?
Thanks,

Don't risk it. Sensitive data must be encrypted when collected. Encrypted again when stored on the server. And encrypted a 3rd time when transmitted. You'll need an SSL certificate on an https:// server to gather this kind of data. Contact your hosting provider for details.
