Creating PDFs at run-time

I am developing an AIR app for Windows desktop and iOS. The app needs to be able to create PDFs from information inputted by the user, and then save the PDF to the device. Ideally, I need to do this 100% client-side, and not rely on a server to create the PDFs. Does anyone know of the best solution for this? I have contacted the developers of both AlivePDF and PurePDF libraries, as these may provide the solution, but both of these libraries appear to be about 4 - 5 years old.

You just need one alert created in each form, rather you can reference one alert from a template and change the alert text runtime.
Look at set_alert_property.

Help to create item at run time

Hi all
Please help to create item at run time
I want to create item at run time
is it Possible ???
thank you

Hi,
As mentioned several times above, you cannot use Forms for displaying dynamic columns. So, you have two options (AFAIK).
1. Create maximum number of items and set their visibility off based on the user input.
2. Create a PJC (may be by extending JTable), and display dynamic columns (i feel it is a bit complicated and not straight forward as it sounds). Here is a [simple howto|http://sheikyerbouti.developpez.com/forms-pjc-bean/first-bean/first_bean.pdf] to build the PJC.

Creating alert at run time

Our current forms use the MESSAGE built-in to display
error messages. When people are doing data entry and a message
comes up, they might hit the enter key as part of their
processing and never see the message. What we want is
an alert-type screen that has more than one button so that
we can place the focus on something other than OK in order
to make it more difficult for them to miss the error message.
Something like this:
while key pressed != 'OK'
loop
display message
end loop
With this scheme they would have to change the focus from the
non-OK button, ensuring that they have seen the message.
An alert would work just fine for this. In order to make
the integration of this new message processing easier we had hoped
to put the creation of the alert and the loop in a .PLL file so
the only change to the application would be to change MESSAGE to
NEW_MESSAGE in the application's code.
I can't find any documentation on creating alerts at run time.
Is there a way to do that, or some other ideas on how to handle
this situation?
The applications run in a noisy environment, so having the
application make a different sound might not work.

Create lov at run time in oracle form 10g

i want to create a lov and record group dynamically at run time..
i have the code in when-form-instance..
Declare
v_lov lov;
rg_id recordgroup;
gc_id groupcolumn;
tem_num number;
v_rg_id number;
begin
rg_id := find_group('My group');
if id_null(rg_id) then
rg_id := Create_group('My_group');
gc_id := add_group_column(rg_id,'emp_id',number_column);
gc_id := add_group_column(rg_id,'ename',char_column,15);
end if;
v_rg_id := POPULATE_GROUP_WITH_QUERY('My_group','select t.employee_id,t.first_name from employee_mt t where t.employee_id in (103,104,106)');
--tem_num :=populate_group(rg_id);
v_lov := find_lov ('LOV_NAME');
set_lov_property(v_lov,group_name,'My_group');
set_item_property('VEH_SEARCH.TXT_VEH_CODE',lov_name,'lov');
End;
now i have problem...whether i create first a lov and record group at design time or not????
if i create a lov and have the recordgroup column then what is the benefit of dynamically lov...???
thanks

Hi.
It is possible with some restrictions. Let's say you agree there are max 5 columns in your LOV-s. That way you can easily create LOV to RG colums mapping (what Andreas pointed out).
For example :
1. in design time create RG with dummy columns (for example : c1, c2, c3, c4, c5)
2. in design time create 1 LOV with 5 predefind columns (for example : c1, c2, c3, c4, c5)
3. populate that record group with select (selecting 5 columns. If you do not have 5 columns in your table on which LOV is based just select dummy columns for the rest of the columns) aliasing them as c1, c2, c3, c4, c5 (same as in LOV from step 2)
4. asign that RG to the LOV in step 1
5. in LOV show just "non-dummy" rows form step 3
The rest you already figured it out.
The benefit of this approach is questionable as the same can be done creating more RG and LOV-s in design time. So I believe this is the matter of developer preferences. By the way the concept I described we use on daily bases dealing with LOV-s.
Best regards.

Creating executable including run time and drivers windows 7

Hi
Using version 8.5.1 and need to include the runtime version, and drivers for connecting to scope into an executable. Have found so much information on the subject of creating an executable but would like to know if anyone has some step by step for version 8.5.1 to create an executable. Also, has anyone had any issues with drivers and installing/creating exe. while running windows 7.

Hi!
I remember running the compiler at home on Windows 7 64bit using 32bit LabVIEW and I did not have any problems. The exe built just fine.
You have to have your code in a project in order to build an executable. Once you have created a project and included your source files, right click on Build Specifications and choose "New->Application (exe)". Go through each section of the Application (exe) dialog and input the appropriate settings you need.
You can include the runtime and device drivers by creating an Installer. Once you have your executable built, you can right click on Build Specifications and choose "New->Installer". Same thing, go through each part of the dialog box selecting appropriate settings. Under "Additional Installers" you can include NI drivers and the LabVIEW runtime. If you have never done this before, it may ask for you to insert LabVIEW/NI Driver discs so it can include what it needs to for your installer.
My users tend to groan whenever I do this, however, as it creates installers >400MB (which seems silly to them for what appears to be a simple program). Ah well.

I installed windows 7 recently and also Adobre reader XI, and now I cannot open any of my previously created pdfs. Every time I get the message: Error opening the file. Access denied. What is going on?

Recently I had to install windows 7 in my notebook because XP doesn't have more support. Before installing I backed up all my files to my external HD. Now that I instaleed windows 7 and also installed Acrobat Reader XI, I just cannot open any of my pdf files created prior to installing windows 7.
Looking for help online, I found the solution of security and giving me access as an administrator to all my files, but it still keeps the same...
Can some one please help me out?? I really need to work on many of this files ASAP.
Thank you all in advance for you attention,
Best,

Help creating code with running time proportional to N! (factorial)

I'm guessing that n! is something like n^n, but am not sure how to create for loops for that. I know n^2 requires two for loops; one inside the other. Some hints or guides would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

An algorithm does not have to have n-nested loops (which all run upto n) to be in O(n^n). An example of something in O(n^n) (or O(n!)) is solving the famous [travelling salesman problem|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traveling_salesman_problem] brute force.

Pick a subject area at run time and create an analysis on this subject area.

We have a requirement wherein we need to create analyses at run time. We want to give the flexibility to users to pick up a subject area on which they wish to create an analysis. This will be done through a dashboard prompt. Once the user picks up a subject area from the prompt, we will create the analyses at run time based on the selected subject area.
The problem that we are facing at this point is how to create a dynamic 'FROM' clause for the analysis. As an example, consider the following scenario:
1. There is a dashboard prompt called 'Select a DataStore'. The possible values are all the subject areas in the RPD. For simplicity, lets assume there are two values DS1 and DS2.
2. If the user selects DS1, the analysis sql should be:
select <colgroup1>, <colgroup2>
from DS1;
However, if the user selects DS2, the analysis sql should be:
select <colgroup1>, <colgroup2>
from DS2;
Hence the requirement for a dynamic FROM clause.
I tried using a presentation variable in the from clause but I get the sql syntax error.
Is there a way of implementing this requirement?

To work around the license issue, see the Microsoft Knowledge Base article LICREQST.EXE Requesting a License Key from an Object and download licreqst.exe. Run licreqst.exe and find "CWUIControlsLib.CWSlide.1" under the registered controls section and click on it. The license string at the top can be passed to Licenses.Add and then you should be able to dynamically create the Measurement Studio controls. For example:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Licenses.Add "CWUIControlsLib.CWSlide.1", "[Add license string from licreqst here]"
Dim slide
Set slide = Controls.Add("CWUIControlsLib.CWSlide.1", "slide")
With slide
.Top = 120
.Width = 1215
.Visible = True
End With
End Sub
Creating controls like this would have an impact on performance since all calls are late bound. If you are using the Measurement Studio controls in a UserControl, though, you should not need to do this since the license would get compiled into the binary that contains the control. I don't think that you would have any problems creating your control since it would not be licensed.

Create the pages at run time in smartforms

How to create the pages at run time in smartforms????

Hi..
You cannot create pages at run time, however you can decide based upon conditions and using commands in Smartforms, which page needs to be displayed next.
Those pages should be created beforehand.

Keeping .xdp docs to DB and convert them run-time to .pdfs? Is it possible?

We need to keep the LiveCycle documents in .xdp format and to visualize them run time at client work space with Acrobat Reader.
Is it enough to use only LiveCycle Designer Enterprise Suite for this goal or we have to use a combination of Adobe LiveCycle Designerand "Adobe InDesign CS3 SDK", "PDF Library SDK or any other component model? Or may be you can offer any other solution?

Converting xdp to pdf at run time requires the Adobe LiveCycle ES Forms service.

Can we create items dynamically or at run time?

Hello expert,
can we create some item dynamically at some button click?

You can not create items at run time. But you can manage them at run time by setting Visible property programatically.
Hope this helps..
