CS4 drops support for databases?

I just got off a lengthy call with Dreamweaver tech support,
and they confirmed that there is no longer any support for database
connectivity using ASP.Net VB in the new CS4 version. The only
connectivity that is supported is through a Spry Dataset. The
technician said that this appears to be a security related issue
and that Adobe has no intentions of changing this.
Why would Adobe do this?
I have used Dreamweaver for many years, and this was one of
the strongest parts of the program, and the decision ends our
company’s use of any newer version of the product.

The dropping of support for ASP.NET was announced in August
2007, but
support for ASP, PHP and CF hasn't been dropped. The reason
for .NET to
be dropped isn't just security, its down to Adobe never being
able to
keep up with all the updates from Microsoft for .NET. They
just can't
compete with Microsoft's own products.
I am still on CS3, and don't have any plans to get CS4, as
the features
don't make a big enough difference for me, yet. So if you
need .NET
support, stick with CS3, but you will only be using getting
.NET v1.1 so
you will be far behind everyone else.

Why is Adobe dropping support for pre 3GS phones?!

I think it's a bad decision to drop support for pre 3GS devices. There are still many out there and if support is dropped we're forced to still use the old PFI to reach the complete audience.
It's clear that OpenGL ES 2 offers a lot more fancy stuff than OpenGL ES 1.5 does, but still, things like GPU_VECTOR or sophisticated blending are perfectly doable with OpenGL ES 1.5.
And if a clean implementation is really not possible, Adobe should at least allow to publish for old devices even if this means that not all optimization techniques can be used.
I develop iPhone apps using different technologies and AIR is attractive for me because I can target with one project a big range of different plattforms. If Adobe drops support for old phones, this advantage is heavily shortened!
What is your opinion on the this development?

Apple have dropped support for pre-3GS because to pull of the features and performance in iOS 4.3 they had to develop just for the ARM7 chip, and not for the ARM6. They probably have a good sense of the number of people that have the older devices, and think it's ok to not update the software on those devices.
The same may be true for Adobe.
I am trying to find out how to make AIR 2.6 and AIR 2.0 live together in Flash CS5. If I work it out I'll let you know.

CF10 Failover support for database

Hi all,
I've been using ColdFusion 10 Standard for some time and recently noticed that there is Failover support for databases on CF10 Standard
CF10 Enterprise edition can enable Cluster for load balancing and fail over for application and sessions
What is this failover support for database on CF10 Standard edition all about?
Can't seem to find any documents or discussion about this

Try this :
jdbc:macromedia:oracle:@(description=(address_list= (address=(host=xxxxx.xxx.local) (protocol=tcp)(port=1568))(address=(host=xxx.xxx.local)(protocol=tcp) (port=1569)) (load_balance=yes)(failover=yes))(connect_data=(service_name=xxxxx)))

Firefox dropping support for optgroups?

It seems that Firefox 4 has dropped support for <optgroup> elements? Why would such a great web development browser do this? Also, the box model has changed with this release.
Not good guys.

Plugin are installed outside the control of Firefox and Firefox usually scan specific registry keys to find a specific plugin.
As long as MS makes a Silverlight plugin available for Firefox then you can use Silverlight in Firefox.

Dropped support for high-def dvd?

Does anyone know if Mavericks dropped support for the HD DVD format offered by Compressor 3?
A DVD authored with this format will not play on an iMac (2.4 Intel Core 2 Duo) running Mavericks, but will play on a Mac Pro (2x2Ghz Dual-Core Intel Xeon) running Mac OS 10.6.8. Other DVDs play fine on the iMac.
Thanks in advance for any information regarding this.

The CalDigit card is not rated to work on the NEWEST MacPros...the ones with different processors and other internal circuitry. It works fine on previous models. The big reason I suggest the Caldigit card over the rest is:
1) It is half the price with all the same features
2) It can be installed and removed by the customer. The Apple card can only be installed and removed by a certified Apple dealer.
Now, Raid 5 is good as it offers PROTECTION...where RAID 0 does not. If one drive dies, the RAID 5 still works. If the same happened to Raid 0, all info is lost...ALL. Raid 5 will lower the capacity of all the drives, as it uses one for this protection, where Raid 0 is larger. Give and take.
FYI...I cut DVCPRO HD and ProRes on internal drives...no raid. Firewire 800 drives are good for this format too. Raids are only needed for multiple streams of ProRes, and the uncompressed formats. And for protection.

Why does firefox drop support for a plugin with an update

Why the H*ll does Firefox drop support for a plugin when there is an update in Firefox.
FF4 has reported that 6 of my plugins that work fine in 3.6 are now not supported. !! This is a joke, and happens regularly.
As a user (a highly IT literate one) this is annoying and frustrating, and from a design standpoint, unprofessional.

Plugins as in Flash, Java, quicktime or such or do you mean Extensions ?
Plenty of Plugins seems to be detected and in use by Firefox 4.0 just fine according to your system details by your post.
If you meant Extensions then check for updates, look at addons.mozilla.org or the Extension homepage for to see if the author has provided a update.
Generally Extensions can need anywhere from a simple maxversion bump to a lot more for it to work properly on a new Major version of Firefox depending on what the Extension does.
It is professional actually as extensions that were not actually compatible may actually cause problems big or small if they were to still just ''work'' in a new Major version release so hence the need for them to be properly up to date on any changes and hopefully the extension author is quick about it.

Adding drop support for JPanel in 1.4

Hi there.
I'm sorry for this naive question, but I just had to...
For implementing drop support in a JPanel can we use the new dnd features of 1.4 or do we have to do it using the "old style"?
I mean, do we have to implement the DropTargetListener interface and define it as a DropTarget or is there a simpler way?
Cheers,
/rp

Support for database objects shall be installed

Hello,
my problem is the following:
Support for Repository (Core) Objects is installed,
but I want to install the support database objects, too.
Can you help me with that?
Thanks

Henrik,
I assume you mean the Designer model, as this provides a structured database model, along with many other elements. You are given the option to install the Designer model along with the Core model when you initially installed the repository using the Repository Administration Utility.
regards,
David

Dropping support for Internet Explorer 8, and Firefox 20.x or below

Starting April 30th, we will discontinue support for all Internet Explorer 8 versions and all Firefox 20 versions and below. In order to continue using Business Catalyst Admin user interface without problems, you and your clients need to upgrade to a more recent browser:
Download Internet Explorer
Download Safari
Download Chrome
Download Firefox

Thanks for your reply Shay.
We plan to officially support IE8 with the next patch release to JDeveloper 11g - currently planned for later this year.That matches what I wrote in my initial post in this forum thread about IE8 support.
We usually only certify browsers after they officially go production.That does not really answer my question (q1) in this forum thread.
It is more like, how can I assess that Oracle will support any successor(s) of IE8 or successor(s) of any currently supported browsers for ADF 11g applications in the future? How long will Oracle support "commonly used browsers" for an ADF 11g application I build today, so how long will I be able to use that application?
How do I answer such questions for ADF 11g applications that should be deployed on the internet (where, as some extranet environments, you typically have not that much (or no) control over which browsers your users use ... although some would like to argue with that, see forum thread "ADF Faces RC browser support and browser market share")?
(By the way, do you have any feedback for the forum thread "ADF 10g support for Internet Explorer 8"?)
regards
Jan

11g TP3 / ADF BC / Support for database type in column

Is it necessary to instantiate an object of corresponding type in the row implementation class to manage the corresponding type attributes like in 10g ?
Example from 10g :
protected void create(AttributeList attributeList)
super.create(attributeList);
ApplicationModule root = getDBTransaction().getRootApplicationModule();
DBSequence seqid = new DBSequence("customers_seq",root);
setCustomerId(seqid.getSequenceNumber());
try
CustAddressTyp custAddr = new CustAddressTyp();
this.setCustAddress(custAddr);
catch (Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();
}

We currently don't offer support for Oracle ADF BC in Eclipse and while we might consider this for a future release this is not planned right now.

When did Oracle drop support for this?

Hi
I have the 9.2.0.2 Windows installation of Oracle on a test PC here. On 9.2.0.2, the CREATE TABLESPACE statement fails when specifying the TEMPORARY clause. Instead I have to use CREATE TEMPORARY TABLESPACE. The difference of course is that the latter creates a locally managed temp ts while the former creates dictionary managed temp ts.
Does anyone know the exact version at which Oracle stopped support for CREATE TABLESPACE ... TEMPORARY - i.e. dictionary managed temporary tablespaces?
Thanks
Martin

Fredrik is correct. My system tablespace is locally managed. I tried his proposed tablespace creation and it did fail "ORA-12913: Cannot create dictionary managed tablespace". So there is the answer.
Thanks to both of you for the help.
Martin.

Macally drops support for Post-Op/iMedia FCP Keyboard on Intels

Though I doubt you can buy one anymore, and Post-Op the company I paid $180.00 to, no longer sells them, I thought I would post this info for those using it now, or finding an old one on e-bay.
PRODUCT: Post-Op EZ keyboard is just a repackaged Macally iMedia Key keyboard. You used the Macally iMedia software to program the custom button along the top, and you could program an eject button, which the new Mac Pros need, (though F12 would work for one optical bay). While the keys still work for input, without updated software you can't program the buttons now on Intel Tiger or Intel Leopard. I wrote them and this was the Christmas cheer message I received.
Dear Customer,
Thank you for contacting us.
I am sorry that we'll not have Intel Mac driver support for this keyboard.
For Eject, you may press and hold the F12 key for 1 second to open/close the CD tray.
If you have any question, please let me know. Wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year,

Creative silently trying to drop support for some X-FI products?

I intended to look for any updates on their support page but to my surprise the X-FI Platinum (yes, the one with hardware decoding of various 5. formats) was not listed anymore. Though I found it through: 'If your product is not listed above, please click here.' at the very bottom. So we got an official Windows 7 driver with this, and other cards, that increases shutdown time with up to 5 minutes for 9 months, and now this? I am close to being speechless.
So just to be clear here, I am not saying they are, I am saying what it starting to point towards. It doesn't inspire confidence or quality at all and on top of the last few years it's just too much. Sadly Creative seems to think they don't want customers that know how things work. We're too much trouble and not easy enough cashcows? But the only thing we want is are bug fixed and stable working drivers in operating system Creative has announced to support. Granted I understand that this may not be easy, but don't announce support for products you cannot get to work 00% your selfs.
Thank you for the efforts Creative, but it's fallen short and only almost working so far in Vista and W7. I don't see how anyone should buy your products with the quality (I've tested a few things more then just your sounds cards) you're aiming for if this is Creatives answer to it's consumers.

I'm sick and tired of Creative. No response - no new drivers - nothing but silence. Maybe it's time to get the media on this. Maybe that will force Creative to come with some sort of statement about their lack of support.
I can think of several news media that might find this situation very interesting!.
Unfortunately, I don't think even media attention can move Creative to do anything about anything except make more hollow promises.
Remember all the media attention surrounding the Daniel_k incident in March/April 2008 It woke Creative up for a little bit, they made a bunch of vague promises, and now they are back to sleep again.
Guess you're right but it seems like a much bigger story than the Daniel incident.
The Daniel_K incident wasn't solely about Creative stepping on a community driver modder, it was also about the years of neglect Creative had towards their sound card users. Those years of neglect had the effect of building a silent anger towards Creative amongst it's user base, we were all ready to blow, we just needed a spark. The letter from Creative to Daniel K was that spark.
Sort of like how WW started...

EA2 - request support for database roles

Would like to see database roles supported in the Connection Navigator for a schema, just like tables, views, etc. Need to be able to create/drop/copy/view roles, see what users or roles have been granted to a particular role, view or update what roles/object privs/system privs this role has been granted.

Feature requests should be made according to the instructions in the "Feature Requests" sticky on the forum (http://forums.oracle.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=444). If you go there and search on Roles, you will find an Accepted feature request for Roles Node. How soon this will be built into SQL Developer is another matter - we will have to wait and see.

CS4 raw support for Lumix LX5 RW2 files

It appears that the new Camera Raw Adapter 6.2 that supports the new Lumix LX5 raw files is not compatible with Photoshop CS4. Does this mean I will never be able to process LX5 raw files with CS4?

Adobe provides backwards compatibility in CS2, CS3 and CS4 for new cameras through the FREE DNG Converter:
Win: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4803
Mac: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4802
There are other benefits to using DNG besides backward compatibility if you haven’t explored those:
The metadata, keywords and RAW adjustments are stored in the file – along with a processed preview of the image. This makes the file portable and keeps your metadata safe and secure.
DNG files are smaller than the original RAW file which will save you disk space and time in the long run.
DNG is an openly specified file format which means the file format isn’t going away. So if you use another RAW processor that supports DNG, you don’t have to worry about compatibility or portability of your metadata.
