Cower command and use

Hi,
I have been trying out different AUR helpers, and have now downloaded cower.   I was wondering if someone could verify that this is the correct way to use (so that I don't break something )
For example, if I wanted to download Abiword-light and it's dependencies and then build it?  Would I do the following:
cower -dd abiword-light
and then makepkg in each folder that is downloaded?  How would i know in which order to build the various dependencies, etc.  Essentially, I would like to learn how to do the equivalent of yaourt -S abiword-light.  Thank you very much for the help.

Thank you for your response.  I am fairly new to linux, so what exactly would be the benefit of performing these steps manually versus simply yaourt -S abiword-light? (wouldn't it be a huge hassle for a large file with 15+ dependencies, for example).

  • Invoke-Command and $using:ACL problem

    Hi,
    Can anyone point me in the right direction.
    I want to modify and ACL on a remote server, but i cannot assign a variable inside the invoke-command where i'm also refferencing an local variable.
    When the first invoke-command is ran i get an error:
    A Using variable cannot be retrieved. A Using variable can be used only with Invoke-Command, Start-Job, or InlineScript
    in the script workflow. When it is used with Invoke-Command, the Using variable is valid only
    if the script block is invoked on a remote computer.
    $DriveFunctionDirectoryStructure="z:\projects\1"
    Invoke-Command
    -Session$s-ScriptBlock{$acl=get-acl$using:DriveFunctionDirectoryStructure}
    Invoke-Command
    -Session$s-ScriptBlock{$acl.SetAccessRuleProtection($using:True,$using:ToggleAccessRuleFlag)}
    Invoke-Command
    -Session$s-ScriptBlock{Start-Sleep-Seconds5}
    Invoke-Command
    -Session$s-ScriptBlock{$rule=New-ObjectSystem.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule("localdomain\$using:groupName","$using:AccessOption","ContainerInherit,

    Invoke-Command
    -Session$s-ScriptBlock{$acl.AddAccessRule($rule)}
    Invoke-Command
    -Session$s-ScriptBlock{Set-Acl$using:DriveFunctionDirectoryStructure$acl}

    Hi RFalken,
    you can use the -ArgumentList parameter of Invoke-Command like this:
    $script = {
    Param (
    $Parameter1,
    $Parameter2
    Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock $script -ArgumentList @(2,42)

  • Crystal report SQL Command and using IN

    Post Author: geozuh
    CA Forum: Crystal Reports
    Does any one know how to get a multiple value prompts to work in Crystal report SQL Commands? I have an extremely large database and do not want to pull back all the records to the report. I know I can do the filtering in the report, but due to the size of the database, I am restricked from doing do.
    I would like to set the State as a multiple value parameter/prompt to be used in the SQL Command.
    Ex.
    Select CustID, FirstName, LastName
    from Customer
    where State in ('WI', 'IL', 'MN') --this would be turned into a parameter

    Post Author: yangster
    CA Forum: Crystal Reports
    you are over thinking the problemsimply create a parameter within crystal for your state and change it to allow multiple valuesthen in the select expert put in state = ?stateif you do show sql query you will see that the values are pushed down to the sql level thus no performance hit vs putting the parameter directly in the command itself

  • File path from find command and using POSIX

    Hi,
    I have a find command in do shell script returning output files of the form ./xyz/abc/.../...
    instead of the full path.
    I am guessing that this is the problem when I use POSIX path of one of those files. Can Applescript understand the "./" or does it need a full Unix path to convert it back?
    In that case, how do I ask find command to return the full path?
    Thanks in advance!

    >I am guessing that this is the problem when I use POSIX path of one of those files. Can Applescript understand the "./" or does it need a full Unix path to convert it back?
    You're right - AppleScript won't be able to use those paths because AppleScript has no idea of the current directory used by the shell.
    The problem is that you're defining '.' a the start point of your search.
    For each matching file find will print this start point in front of the relative path, assuming that you know where you're starting from. So the solution is to provide that path as the search start point rather than .
    For example, if your current script says:
    <pre class=command>cd /some/directory
    find . -name "*.mp3"</pre>
    You could/should rewrite this as:
    <pre class=command>find /some/directory -name "*.mp3"</pre>
    in the second case all matches would include the full path including the /some/directory part.
    If you can't predict what your search directory will be you can write your find like this:
    <pre class=command>find `pwd` -name "*.mp3"</pre>
    which will fill in the current directory (via pwd at the time the search is executed and will output full paths that AppleScript can work with.

  • What is the difference between 'command delete' and using 'delete original and all versions'?

    My masters are not referenced and I usually have only one version.  What is the difference between using 'command delete' versus going to the top menu bar and using 'dele

    Good question  .
    When the Version is the only Version based on the Original of that Version, the two commands have the same effect.

    Firstly, what is the source of the 10.6.4 disc? Is it the original installation disc for your MacBook, or one 'borrowed' from another computer?
    It isn't the retail version, because that's 10.6.3.
    Assuming it's the correct disc (i.e. the one that shipped with your Mac), you need to boot from it again.
    OK the language page.
    From the installer screen, ignore the continue button, go to the menu bar and choose Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    In DU, select your internal drive in the sidebar (the top item with the makers name and serial no.).
    Run Repair Disk. If that comes up as disk OK, click the partition tab. Select the partiton from the drop-down above the graphic; 1 partiton is all you need.
    Go to the options button and ensure that the partition scheme is GUID and the file system to Mac OS Extended (Journalled). Name the partiton (usually Macintosh HD), click Apply.
    When the Macintosh HD volume appears below the drive name, quit DU and see if you can then install.
    If the screen after the language screen doesn't show the menu bar, it may be necessary to use another Mac to do the job with the MB in Firewire Target Disc Mode. If it won't boot in TDM, or the MB doesn't have FireWire then it's getting very difficult.

    Beyond that thread, I gave a presentation at Kaleidoscope last year around MaxL that goes into quite a bit of depth re encryption and a whole bunch of other MaxL goodies.
    To download it, go to www.odtug.com, click on Tech Resources, Essbase/Hyperion, and use the search box for MaxL.
    There are two presentations, one by Tracy McMullen and the other by me. Tracy's is a good introduction to the various command groups; my presentation focused on a few areas in depth, one of which was encryption. The title is "Master Essbase with MaxL Automation".

  • Restrictions for using sql commands and operators in loader control file

    Hi ,
    It suppose that there is a lot of restrictions and limitations when using sql commands and operators in the loader control files, same as it seems I cannot use (or) when with case statement, also it seems there is certain length for the case,
    So guys, what are the common limitations and restrictions to be avoided in the loader control file ?
    Your efforts are highly appreciated
    Ash

    Hi Ash,
    if you need to do more complicated logic its better to define the file to be loaded as an external table. You can then use any sql function you like against the external table rather than messing around with what you can and can;t do in a sqlldr control file.
    You can use the external_table option of sqldr to generate the definition.

  • Unable to configure Reporting Services 2012 after using 'netsh http delete urlacl' command and .EXE file also.

    One of my servers quit responding during some troubleshooting of another issue and when I try
    to reconfigure it I am receiving Results as follows:
    Reserving url http://+:80
    The URL has already been reserved.
    It appears to me that there is something with the Virtual Directory that is not allowing me to use it or
    overwrite it.  If I change the name or the port the new configuration works fine, however this is part of a scale-out test environment and I need to keep the virutal directory names the same.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled SSRS in an attempt to resolve, but that did nothing to this issue.
    I have used 'netsh http delete  urlacl' command and deleted saved urls also but still am facing issue.
    How can I manually list, delete, or edit  Virtual Directories in SSRS 2012? 

    Hi Syed,
    Based on my research, the issue can be caused by the default values for Report Server Web Service and Report Manager has already been reserved. In order to trouble shoot this issue, please refer to the following steps:
    To check this issue, we can run the following command in the command windows:
    netsh http show urlacl | find "Report"
    It should returns the reserved URL as below:
    Reserved URL            :
    http://+:80/ReportServer/
    User:
    Reserved URL            :
    http://+:80/Reports/
    User:
    Then we can delete the reserved URLs with the command below and recreate them to fix this issue:
    netsh http delete urlacl http://+:80/ReportServer/
    netsh http delete urlacl http://+:80/Reports/
    Reference:

    Yes, but you have no way of knowing whether what you find on Google is right or not.We can say its right as long google places oracle docs at the top when you type some thing related to oracle.

  • *when we use at user -command and give smaple code fro at user-command*

    Hi experts,
    i am new to abap can any body tell me when we use AT USER-COMMAND and give a sample code for that.
    point will be rewarded.
    thanks.

    Hi,
    AT USER-COMMAND  is a list Event.This Event is triggered when user make an action on the Application Toolber Or Menubar.
    Here is the Program.
    START-OF-SELECTION.
      SET PF-STATUS 'TEST'.
      WRITE:  'Basic list, SY-LSIND =', sy-lsind.
    AT LINE-SELECTION.
      WRITE:  'LINE-SELECTION, SY-LSIND =', sy-lsind.
    AT USER-COMMAND.
      CASE sy-ucomm.
        WHEN 'TEST'.
          WRITE:  'TEST, SY-LSIND =', sy-lsind.
      ENDCASE.
    This program uses a status TEST, defined in the Menu Painter.
    Function key F5 has the function code TEST and the text Test for demo.
    Function code TEST is entered in the List menu.
    The function codes PICK and TEST are assigned to pushbuttons.
    The user can trigger the AT USER-COMMAND event either by pressing F5 , or by choosing List -> Test for demo, or by choosing the pushbutton 'Test for demo'.The user can trigger the AT LINE-SELECTION event by selecting a line.
    Hopr This Will help You.

  • How to use 'AT PF' and 'AT USER-COMMAND' is used in reports...?

    HI,
    I AM SIVA,

    I HAVE NOT CLARY ON 'AT PF' AND 'AT USER-COMMAND'....
    I DONT KNOW HOW AND WHEN TO USE ABOVE TWO EVENTS..
    SEND ME ANY SOURCE CODE OF USING ABOVE TWO EVENTS...
    IF U KNOW THE ANSWER...
    PLEASE SEND ME...
    REGUARS,
    SIVA.

    hi ,
    the on;y diference b/w At User-command and PF Status is that in At user-command we create a menu but in PF Ststus we define the f1 to f12 keys.
    eg; for at User Command.
    let us take tables such as mara, marc, mard.
    data : itab like mara occurs 0 with header line,
             jtab like marc occurs 0 with hl,
             ktab like mard occurs 0 with hl.
    select-options matnr for mara-matnr.
    initialization.
    matnr-low = '0'.
    amtnr-high = '1000'.
    matnr-sign = 'i'.
    matnr-option = 'bt'.
    append matnr.
    start-of-selection.
    write :/ 'menu bar creation'.
    set Pf Status 'MENU'.
    at user-command.
    case sy-ucomm.
    when 'mm01'.
    select * from mara into table itab where matnr in matnr.
    loop at itab.
    write :/ itab-matnr, itab-ernam, itab-ersda, itab-mbrsh.
    hide itab-matnr.
    endloop.
    when 'mm02'.
    select * from marc into table jtab where matnr = itab- matnr.
    loop at jtab.
    write :/ jtab-matnr, jtab-werks, itab-pstat.
    hide itab-matnr.
    hide jtab-werks.
    endloop.
    when 'mm03'.
    select * from mard into table ktab where matnr  = itab- matnr werks = jtab-werks.
    loop at ktab.
    write :/ ktab-matnr, ktab-werks, ktab-lgort.
    endloop.
    when 'mm04'.
    do 10 times.
    write :/ 'hi'.
    enddo.
    when 'mm05'.
    write "/ 'u pressed enter'.
    endcase.
    now go to set pf status 'menu' n double click on it.
    then press yes.
    then again yes.
    then u will find 6 tabstrips tht r blank in menu bar.
    now go to the first tabstrip n name it as table...then in the code give mm01 n text as mara.then again give code as mm02 n text same with mm03.
    then go to second tabstrip n give details n then i nt tht u give mm04 as code n text as hi.then mm05 as code n text....save check n activate,
    then go to function keys n thre u will find save back error tabstrips name them s,c,activate.
    then come back n activate.
    then same thing is wit pf but there is no menu bar creation for it n instead of when 'mm01' we will give at pf04, at pf05....
    one more thing we should always give pf keys from 04 as o1,o2,o3 r used help errors n activation.
    if  u found ur answer n if it is helpful to u then dont forget to reward with points,
    with regards,
    madhuri.

  • Flash CC won't let me switch between open documents using command and tilde key ( ~ )

    In all previous versions of Flash, and most other Adobe software, you could change the active document using command and tilde key ( ~ ) on a Mac. However Flash CC won't let me do this. Is there a bug, or something I need to set up to get it to work? Or is this possibly just expected behavior in the new version of Flash?

    I'm on a 2012 desktop with OS X 10.8.4 using a bluetooth keyboard. Cmd + ~ works with all other Adobe programs I have installed including Flash CS5.5.

    No, you can't change the built in calendar. However, there are lots of other calendar apps that have that month view. Take a look at Week Cal, Tempo, Fantastical, Cal (by the same folks who make Any.do).
