Custom Snippets location

I've searched the forum and found a number of threads about custom snippets, but I just want to confirm something.
Where are the custom snippets stored? I install sqldeveloper on the d:\ of my laptop, sadly the laptop died. IT department has given me a new laptop and copied everthing from the d:\ of my old laptop. But my snippets don't appear when I start up sqldeveloper on my new laptop.
I know it not just a case of the IT dept. not copying everything, because they've given me my old d:\ which I've connected upto my new laptop via usb, when I start the sqldeveloper on this drive I can't see my snippets either.
I can only assume that while the install I did to the d:\ installs the sqldeveloper to the d:\ some file ie Snippets file get installed on the c:\ (which is dead) of my old laptop.
Is this correct or what is the name of the file I should be looking for?
Cheers
Window XP
sqldeveloper build main 25.79
connecting to 9i and 10g databases (although that should affect it)

One other thing...
Try using this switch in a shortcut pointing to your SQLDeveloper.exe. This will point even more items to your personal user directory or wherever you want to point it.
-J-Dide.user.dir="%USERPROFILE%\.SQLdeveloper"
alternatley
-J-Dide.user.dir="%APPDATA%\.SQLdeveloper"
or
-J-Dide.user.dir="c:\SomePlaceElse\.SQLdeveloper"
Cheers...

Disappearing custom snippets

Last week I painstakingly recreated in DW CS5, Mac, the custom Snippets folders I'd used in DW CS4, Win -- since I hadn't found a quick way (there should have been one) to export my existing CS4 Windows Snippets and import the resulting file into my new Mac DW CS5 installation.
I later restarted the Mac for a software update. When I launched DW again and went to look for my Snippets folder in its usual place, grouped with Files and Assets, it was missing. I re-launched it from Window > Snippets -- and discovered that all my carefully built custom Snippets were gone. Only the stock off-the-rack DW Snippets folders were present.
I checked the Forums, learned where the custom Snippets were supposed to be (in<user>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Dreamweaver CS5/en_US/Configuration/Snippets ) and took a look. Nothing. Not even a Snippets folder in that location.
What the heck happened, and how can I avoid an unpleasant and highly inconvenient data/work-loss situation like this again??
BTW, I still have access to my Windows DW CS4 Snippets. If there is something I missed about a global export function for custom snippets, I'd sure like to know about it. The procedure ought to be as easy as exporting Site Definitions. (Or easier, really; the one-at-a-time Site Defs export arrangement isn't exactly a winner in terms of user convenience.)
Thanks.

Snippets are stored in files with a .csn filename extension. However, if you open a .csn file in a text editor, you'll see that it's simply an XML file. Normally, just copying the files is the simplest way to handle the migration of snippets.
However, there is an official way to migrate snippets, which is to package them as an extension. It's not particularly difficult to do. It involves creating an XML file (with an .mxi filename extension) containing details of the snippets. The Extension Manager does the rest. I've done it several times to package snippets for distribution with the files accompanying some of my books.
There's a template for the XML file at the following location: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Extension Manager CS5\Samples\Dreamweaver\DreamweaverBlank.mxi (it's in a similar location in the Applications folder on a Mac).
The following example shows how I packaged the snippets for my Dreamweaver CS4 book:
<macromedia-extension

    version="0.9.3"
    type="suite">

Basically, you fill in the name, version number, and type of extension. Because I was packaging several snippets, I used "suite" as the type. For a single snippet, the correct value is "codesnippet".
Filling in the author name, description, and access tags is optional. The important section is the files tag, which contains a separate file tag for each snippet. The name attribute is the name of the .csn file for the snippet. The destination always begins with $dreamweaver/configuration/ followed by the name of the folder(s) where the files are to be installed. In the case of snippets, you should use Snippets followed by the name of any subfolder you want to store them in. The destination folders don't need to exist. The Extension Manager creates them automatically.
For convenience, I copy the .csn files to the same folder as my .mxi file. Otherwise the name attribute for each .csn file needs to include the path to the file's current location.
Launch the Extension Manager, select File > Package MXP Extension, and then navigate to the .mxi file. Give the extension a name using the filename extension .mxp, and click Open (it's probably Choose on a Mac). The Extension Manager generates the .mxp file, which can be used to install the snippets on any other machine, regardless of operating system.
As I say, it's not difficult, but it's not as simple as just copying and pasting snippets, which is why the official way of moving them isn't widely known.

My custom snippets disappear after updates

This has been an issue with several versions of DW. When I enter my own snippets, they will be there again when I open DW a few times, and then later, they just randomly disappear. This always happens when I upgrade to a new version of DW. Maybe I installed an update and that wiped them out this last time, but I am not entirely certain that updates are always the cause of the missing snippets. Is there any way to back up these snippets or can Adobe prevent this behavior in the future?
Thanks,
Karen

Each DW version installs as a stand-alone application. Your custom snippets are saved under your user name in a folder called snippets within the Configuration folder (on Windows 7 this is here for me - C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS5\en_US\Configuration). You can copy and save that folder, and then after installing the new version place it in that same location except with the new version of DW (i.e., Dreamweaver CS6).
On a Mac, this location is <user>::Library::Application Support::Adobe::Dreamweaver CS5::en_US::Configuration
If you have not uninstalled the older version, you can recover your snippets from that location.

Moving custom Snippets

Whenever I upgrade or change computers, I always forget how to migrate custom Snippets. This should be a *one-button* process like exporting/importing site definition settings (STE files).
Anyway, I've located my custom Snippets, but I'll be damned if I can find Snippets in CS6's Configuration folder.
[Username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS6\en_US\Configuration
Besides a stronger pair of corrective lenses, what am I missing?

You could also symlink the snippets dir to your own library location. This way it always is exported. When you re-install a system, just symlink the DW snippet folder to your own library's snippet folder and bam they're all there as you left them last time.
In Windows go to STart / Command Prompt, then adjust to your needs and copy / execute the following line :
mklink /J "C:\Users\your-username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS6\en_US\Configuration\Snippets" "D:\LIBRARY\WEB\DREAMWEAVER\MY_SNIPPETS"
if you were to symlink the whole "Dreamweaver CS6" roaming dir, then you not only save the snippets, but the whole kardashian
before you uninstall Dreamweaver, its probably better to rename your own LIBRARY for a moment, so the uninstall routine wouldn't delete your LIBRARY content as well. Not sure if it even does.
After new installation you then just name your LIBRARY back and redo the symlink, and all be in place again. Now for this yoy probably want to create own LIBRARY folders per DW version, since you never knoe what has changed in DW structure and you can't just use all the old files and folders back as they were with an older DW version ... but that's up to your try and creativity from here.
I use symlink for many apps to always and automatically keep my own copy of all achieved app-related files maintenance free ;-)

Custom Snippets won't open from Network Drive

Hello All,
I'm using SQL Developer production release on a Window XP Svcpk 2 machine.
I have installed the extension to save snippets. My installation is on a network drive and I can open the "custom" snippets from that drive. However, if I move the snippets.xml to another network drive(one the entire department can see) SQL Developer doesn't open them. I have modified the sqldeveloper.conf to point to the location on the network drive as well as attempted to use a copy on my local hard drive. This may be a "feature" that it has to be in the jdev/extensions directory but it would be useful if the snippets.xml could be placed on a shared network drive. Don't think it is pertinent but I'm connecting to 10.1.0.5 DB(s) as well as an XE DB.
Thanks for your input....
Bob

Hi,
Did you get any error message when you try to open an Office document from a mapped network drive?
Meanwhile, here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:
1. Temporarily turn off your firewall/antivirus program to check the result.
2. Try to disconnect the network drive and then reconnect it with the "Reconnect at logon" check box unticked.
3. You can have a look at the following KB article and check if it applies:

Required a customer field(located in the profitability segment box) as mand

our client is requested that the customer field (located in the Profitability Segment box) be a mandatory field for GL accounts which are getting posted directly from FI. This field is needed so that proper reporting can be generated for bad debt and product liability claims. Currently this field is not a mandatory when making journal entries, so there were some postings happened with out customer field. Due to this we are unable to extract exact values in CO-PA reports . Please can some one help me on this and explain the process and settings for this??
Thanks in advance.

Hi Eli,
I have posted note to SAP and i got the below reply from them.
Get this functionality you should change
the coding of form DERIVE_CRITERIA_EXTENDED from include RKEVRK2L after
uninstallation of note 115500(in case you have installed) like this:
Im Dialogfall (Kontierungspopup) Verprobung ob für Feld
Mußeingabe erforderlich (Merkmalsgruppe!)
(nicht f. Faktura, da dort keine Fehlermeldung moeglich)
if ( xt_criteria-field is initial
BEGIN OF DELETION *****
and xt_criteria-status eq '2'
and not is_status_flags-dialog is initial ) .
perform send_message using 'KE' 'E' '494'
END OF DELETION *****
BEGIN OF INSERTION *****
and xt_criteria-status eq '2' ) .
data: l_mtyp type c.
if not IS_STATUS_FLAGS-DIALOG is initial.
l_mtyp = 'E'.
else.
l_mtyp = 'W'.
endif.
perform send_message using 'KE' l_mtyp '494'
END OF INSERTION *****
xt_criteria-fieldname
is_cobl-vorgn
i_char_group
endif.
Afterwards you have to run function module RKE_GENERATE_INTERFACE_ACT
for your operating concern to update the generated program RK2LXXXX.

Custom Path Location

My Target is a Flat File, which is located in the Remote UNIX Server. I was able to give the custom File Location in the OWB 9.0.2 which was editable but Not able to do in OWB 9.2.0 as it is not editable. How can I achieve this.

If you want to edit target location, you will have to start a Runtime Audit Browser session, log in with the QA User role, click on the deployment report button, then on the location tab. There you can un-register the location you want to change.
After that, the deployment manager will be prompt you to again register the target location and you can provide the new location properties.

How to download a file from a custom server location?

Hello experts,
I have the following scenario:
A BAPI creates an .exe file and stores it in a custom folder in the server where the portal (and my WD application) is running. This happens once a day.
What I need to do is create a link or button (doesn't matter) so that users can click on it and download this file.
I already checked the file upload - download tutorial (http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/202a850a-58e0-2910-eeb3-bfc3e081257f;jsessionid=%28J2EE3417500%29ID0774236150DB11016171821629714331End?overridelayout=true) however this one considers the file to be downloaded is stored in the src folder of the project, thus it doesn't really help me.
How can I achieve this? Any suggestions and help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

hi Alain,
Use File API to read data from the file. It will return byte array from the file. Set Byte array to the file resouce context attribute.
bind this attribute to the filedownload UI element.
Since you need to read file from the same server where webdynpro application is running, You can give the folder path on the server where the file is located.
try {
               File inputFile =
               new File("C:\\Test\\Test.txt");
               FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(inputFile);
               byte b[] = new byte[ inputFile.length()];
               in.read(b);
               in.close();
          } catch (FileNotFoundException e1) {
               // TODO Auto-generated catch block
               e1.printStackTrace();
          } catch (IOException e1) {
               // TODO Auto-generated catch block
               e1.printStackTrace();

Custom install location in mpkg (PackageMaker)

Hello,
I use the PackageMaker Version 3.03. to install a our software. I enabled "Allow custom location" in the configuration pane, to allow the user to choose the install path. As far as it is only one package it works fine. But I have to add a additional library to /usr/lib.
Now the packageMaker creates a MetaPackage and the installer simply skip the step, where the user can choose the install path.
Is it possible to build a package, which allow the user to choose the application path, but also install some files to a default location?

I'm not really install an Application. It's a Maya plugin and I have to copy my files in 2 different Maya plugin folders.
I think PackageMaker is the right way to go. You just have to do it the PackageMaker way.
I try to figure out the Maya folder with AppleScript, but this always launch Maya. Also, there may be more than one Maya version, and the user should be able to choose the right one.
I would recommend against letting the user choose. Most users have no idea where Maya plug-ins go. It is pretty trivial to find all instances of a particular application.
Yeah, I will use /usr/local/lib. I also don't like it. But it's an extern lib, we use and at any other place it is simply not found.
There are ways around that. Are Maya plug-ins standard plug-in packages? If so, you can include your external lib right in the plug-in bundle. Then use "installnametool" to tell your executable (or object code) where the shared library is located.
If it don't work with PackageManager, I will try to make an install script with AppleScript.
Any idea, how can I still deliver it as a pkg or may be a dmg.
My advice is to use PackageMaker to install your plug-in in its own folder somewhere in Application Support. Then, have a post-flight script that searches for any installations of Maya. You can write this in whatever you want. There are operating system functions that will use Spotlight to find the plug-in directories you are looking for. One you find the correct plug-in folders, copy or link (whatever works) your plug-in into that location. This way, your plug-in is independent of any particular Maya installation. You can (and should) install your script to that installs your plug-in. Then, if the user re-installs Maya or moves machines, they can easily repair your plug-in installation.

Custom.pll and custom.plx location changed

Hi Friends,
I am having Oracle Apps 11.5.9 and i had the custom.pll and custom.plx on $AU_TOP/resource and make the changes there and it's working fine.
Now suddenly the changes made on the file is not refelecting so i searchd the server and i could see another copy of custom.pll and custom.plx on the $COMMON_TOP/admin/scripts and the changes being made on this files is getting reflected(not the one from $AU_TOP)
I don't know how this change happened.
So Please let me know how to change the location of custom.pll and custom.plx from $COMMON_TOP/admin/scripts to $AU_TOP/resource?
Regards,
Arun

Arun,
How did you verify that the one which is used is the one under $COMMON_TOP/admin/scripts?
So Please let me know how to change the location of custom.pll and custom.plx from $COMMON_TOP/admin/scripts to $AU_TOP/resource?Copy the CUSTOM.pll file back to $AU_TOP/resource, and compile the file again. Make sure both files (CUSTOM.pll and CUSTOM.plx exist under this directory), and bounce the application services then.
Also, delete all CUSTOM* files under $COMMON_TOP/admin/scripts (take a backup of the files first).

Hussein
