Compare two dateTime with different timezone

HI, All,
I found a strange thing when compare two dateTime in BPEL;
In my BPEL process, client passed a date time to the process , and the process compare the date time with current data time.
1.client pass cutoffDate to process
2. in a switch activity, I compare cutoffDate with current date. code:
bpws:getVariableData('cutoffDate')<=xpath20:add-dayTimeDuration-to-dateTime()
but seems this compare ignored the timezone information.
For example:
cutoffDate=2010-03-05T06:17:38.838+00:00
currentDate=2010-03-05T14:10:38.838+08:00 this time =2010-03-05T06:10:38.838+00:00
but cutoffDate<currentDate == true... seems it ignored the timezone info..
This is a bug or I used a wrong compare function?
Thanks.

Comparing two numbers with different formats

Dear Java developers
I am trying to compare two numbers but they have different formats. long x = 8981261369, Object obj = "8,981,261,369".
I am trying to see if this two values are equal which is the case in the example above except one has a thousand separator but not sure how to do that.
How can I lose the thousand separator and just compare them as two long values.
Your input will be much appreciated
Thanks

I need a generic way of doing this. Because sometimes the Object does not have a thousand separator. Can i use some kind of NumberFormat to do this.You'll need to know what formats the string (not the number--as already mentioned, numbers don't have formats) can have, and then try them one by one.
Of course, there can be some ambiguity. Does "123,456" represent one hundred twenty three thousand four hundred fifty six, or is that comma a decimal separator, and it represents one hundred twenty three and four hundred fifty six thousandths?
The point is, you have to have a clear definition of what formats are allowed and how to determine which one it is. There's no magic way for Java to do that for you.

Can I use iCloud to sync two devices with different apples Ids?

Can I use iCloud to sync two devices with different apple ID's

What do you mean by "apple ID"? There's an ID you can use at the iTunes store to buy songs, apps, etc. there's an ID you can use for your iCloud account - the two can be different or the same. So which service are you referring to when you talk about an apple ID?

HT204053 I have two iphones with different numbers that I use my apple ID for purchases, etc. How do I get my second iphone setup on icloud? I would like to use the features of icloud for both of my iphones. Thank you

I have two iphones with different phone numbers that I use. I have one of them set up on icloud now, but do not know how to set up my second device on icloud. Both of my iphones use my same Apple ID for purchases, etc. Is there a simple way to add a device to my icloud account? Thank you in advance for any help someone may be able to give me.

To move one of the phones to a different iCloud account (if that's what you want to do), go to Settings>iCloud and turn all synced data to Off. When prompted, choose to keep the data on your iPhone. After everything is off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. This will delete the account from the phone but not from iCloud so the other phone will not be effected. Then set up a new iCloud account with a different Apple ID and turn iCloud syncing in Settings>iCloud back to On. When prompted, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new iCloud account.
You will then have to go to icloud.com and sign into each iCloud account separately and delete any unwanted data that you don't want on the phone syncing with each account.

Can I backup two devices (with different documents) to one iCloud account? For example: iPad and iPhone, not everything is synced between the two, but I would like to backup each (seperately in the cloud), is this possible?

Hello Apple Community,
Can I backup two devices (with different documents) to one iCloud account?
For example: iPad Air and iPhone 5, not everything is synced between the two, but I would like to backup each (seperately in the cloud). Is this possible?
This way when I change from an old ipad to a new, I can restore with the ipad backup, and when I change from an old iphone to a new, I can restore from the
iphone backup.
Thank you in advance!

Terminology check here. Do you really mean a "CD"? There's a difference in Cloud behavior between content from a physical CD you ripped (which only has Cloud content if you have iTunes Match) and an "album" you bought from the iTunes Store.
Read references for Home Sharing.
iTunes: How to share music and video - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2688 - about Music Sharing and Home Sharing
Home Sharing Support page - http://www.apple.com/support/homesharing/
iOS: Setting up Home Sharing on your device - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4557 - "With Home Sharing in iOS 4.3 or later, you can stream your entire iTunes library over your home Wi-Fi network from your Mac or PC right to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch."
The above can get pretty complicated. You are probably best off by syncing both devices to a single library and/or updating the libraries on both computers to have the same content.

I have 2? How do I sync selected photos from my IPad to my IMac w/o losing all photos on my IPad and getting the phoos o my IMac. ou see I have two IMacs with different sets of photos. Also want to convert all Apple works docs to pages docs on my IMac.

I have 2? How do I sync selected photos from my IPad to my IMac w/o losing all photos on my IPad which will be replaced with the photos on my IMac.You see I have two IMacs with different sets of photos. Also want to convert all Apple works docs to pages docs on my IMac. Is there and app available to do the former. many thanks. b

The iPad and related software is designed to sync with only one computer. I suggest transferring the photos from one of your iMacs to the other so that all photos are on one Mac. Same for all other files you want to sync over.
To get those AppleWorks files to the iPad you'll have to determine if Pages will open them. If it will then use the file sharing feature of iTunes to copy them to Pages on your pad.
If Pages will not open the AppleWorks files directly you'll have to save them in some format that Pages will read. These include but may not be limited to Pages and Word formats.

How can I setup an .indd with two columns with different threads so that I can export to epub?

Hi all. Sorry, english is not my native language. I´ve made an .indd: each page has two columns with different threads (is a bilingual text). When I export this .indd to .epub only appears one column from a thread following the next thread. What can i do to fix this? My indesign is CS6
Thank you

There are fixed format EPUB files as can be used for children's books, etc. where there are a lot of illustrations. However, those are very work-intensive to produce. I've never worked on one.
Anne-Marie Concepcion did a Lynda.com video on producing one.
Rorohiko produces a product called ePubCrawler which can help in produced fixed format EPUB files:

How do i run two threads with different sleep times?

How do i run two threads with different sleep times?
Ive got thread A and thread B, they both update a jpanel.
They both start when i press the start button.
However thread A updates every 250ms and thread B updates every 1000ms. i cant just run them both at 250ms becuase this will mess it up.
So for every four runs of thread A i want thread b to only be run once
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks, Ant...

ok, ive done it but now i cant stop it!
ive added buttons to start and stop, the start button works but the stop button doesnt. why doesnt "t.stop();" work?
    public void run() {
        while(t == Thread.currentThread()) {
            System.out.println("No " + t.getName());
            if (t.getName().equals("1")){
                try {
                    t.sleep(1000); // in milliseconds
                } catch (InterruptedException e) {}

How to compare two datetimes in BPEL?

Hi, All,
I need compare two datetimes in a switch activity, but can't find any function for it.
My switch activity like this:
case date1>date2:
do something;
otherwise:
do something;
There's no such function in "Date Functions" and can't find such function in xpath.
BTY, there's no function to make a time duration(by minus one date from another?..so this back to the data compare issue ).
Thanks.

Hi,
Logical function such as greater/less than function can be used to compare two dates as same as comapring two numbers.
Ex: If your receive variables contains two data elements as date1 and date2 then you can use below format in switch condition.
XpathXpression(date1) > XpathXpression(date2)
hope it will help you.

Two tables with different filter values base on a analysis

Hi guys,
let assume that I have a analysis with columns : group_id and sales.
Based on it I would like to create two tables : table1 where group_id =1 and table2 where group_id = 2.
Is OBIEE capable of doing it?
Regards,
Slavi

Hi Slavi,
You can do that in single analysis, but you need to have the group_id column two times.
That is, bring group_id_1, group_id_2 (same column), sales
Now in table 1,
bring group_id_1, sales
Then in selection steps for group_id_1 -> Select Members -> Action choose keep only -> choose the filter value 1
This will filter the table 1 with group_id 1
In table2 bring group_id_2, sales
Then do the same step for group_id_2 with value 2.
now in same report you have two reports with different filter.
If you want you can keep the same column name for both group_id columns, I just kept group_id_1, group_id_2 for easy reference.
