D2K and VB comparison

Can somebody provide me the comparison chart or documentation between D2K 6i and VB6. How can we say that Database development is much simpler with D2K and Oracle combination. What are the advantages of using D2K, than VB6 on and Oracle Database. If someone can provide me a written documentation or a URL that contains the material for this comparison, then that will be of a great help to me.
Its very urgently required. Thanks in advance.
Vikas

since you said you are focused on the database integration as a diffrentiator here are a few points:
First of all - the same development language PL/SQL that saves you from the need to learn 2 languages, and also enables you to do code transfers between your application and the database.
native SQL*NET connection vs. ODBC/ADO etc
ability to use advance DB functionality like Database Objects
Stronger defaulting capabilities including defaulting code from check constraints.
Default Master detail relationshipd.
Default Query on any item in a block.
Fetching rowid by default to enable quick updates to exsiting records.
Array processing.
And this is without mentioning features such as easy Web deployment without the need to worry about the server side infrastructure and tuning your network. or the ability to use designer to generate full applications for you.
All in all you'll end up doing much more coding in VB to access and manipulate your DB. More code= more errors = harder to maintain.

Time "and" Date Comparison

Hi,
I am trying to get the difference between two sets of time.
This also involves a Date comparison because sometimes the times span more than one day.
Here is an example of what I'm trying to accomplish. I have searched the forum archives but have not yet found time and date comparisons together.
startRun = "10/26/01 4:30 PM";
endRun = "10/27/01 7:45PM";
I want to process these two times and get the difference.
The result would be:
totalRunTime = "27 hours 15 minutes";
I am stumped. Is this type of process even possible? Any help would be grealty appreciated.

Cisco products and services comparisons

Wasnt sure where to post this...was hoping somebody could point me in the right direction...
anybody have any site, whitepaper, document of any kind that gives an outline of products and services comparison between cisco products and other network equipment (ie...vs Juniper, vs Brocade, vs Nortel, etc...)
thanks in advance.

Hi Bruce,
If youre a partner you can access the partner portal which has a small bit of competitive info.

Oracle DB schema and data comparison tools that compare BLOBs

I'm looking for schema and data comparison tool like DBDiff or DbTools, but it has to be able to compare BLOB and CLOB fields. I went thru few products available on the market but could not find any that does that.
Can you please recommend tool that will help me with it.
Thanks,
E

Hi.
I use Comparenicus for Oracle from Orbium Software. It compares data and schema, CLOBs, BLOBs..
It can also handle large tables which is very useful for some of my environments.
Last (but not least) it has a unique feature for copying selective data from one DB to another. You can read about it this post:
Efficient way to copy business data from Production DB to Test DB
Enjoy..

Binary comparison and linguistic comparisons

I was doing some performance testing to see if I have linguistic comparisons turned on at a session level and NLS_Sort set to Japanese_M, can I still perform binary comparisons on some of my columns and make them use the binary index.
I was pleasently surprised to see that this worked.
alter session set nls_sort=Japanese_M nls_comp=linguistic
select * from test where nlssort(id, 'NLS_Sort=Binary') = nlssort('00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001', 'NLS_Sort=Binary');
As per the explain plan this was using the Binary index. I would have thought that since I am using a function nlssort, I would probably have to create a function base binary index for this to work.

The parser is clever enough, in some contexts, to recognize NLSSORT(...,'NLS_SORT=BINARY') and remove it from the query. This is the opposite operation to adding NLSSORT implicitly when NLS_COMP=ANSI/LINGUISTIC.

[Bug?] In Range and Coerce Comparison Mode

It seems that changing the Comparison Mode of the IR&C function with Arrays or Clusters attached does not trigger Type Propagation, or whatever is responsible for selecting the proper instance. For example, if I wire up three arrays to the inputs of IR&C, change comparison mode to Compare Aggregates, then create an Indicator from the In Range? output, the result is the wrong indicator and a broken wire. Likewise, I can change the mode on an IR&C function with a wired In Range? output and it will not break the wire until a later change triggers a recompile or type propagation.
LV10 (not SP1) and Win7.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Darin,
As mentioned, that CAR refers specifically to clusters and the 'In Range?' boolean output of the In Range and Coerce function. The specific VI that showed the issue always had an In Range output of true for all elements of the cluster except the first. However, it is worth note that the Coerced results showed correct behavior, unbundling showed correct behavior, changing the numeric representation of the compared elements (even changing back to the original representation of U32) corrected the behavior, this error is fixed in LabVIEW 2011, and when I recreated the VI from scratchn in LabVIEW 2010 it behaved as expected.
So, it is very unlikely that the error fixed in this CAR will impact your use of the In Range and Coerce function.

IBook and app comparison

Thought I'd start this thread as a comparison for the success of my book and app. I just had my book approved today and I am expecting the app version to be approved in the next day or two. I thought i'd put some stats up to show how the downloads of each were going for comparison sake.
The book is a childrens books: The Spider Who Had Never Spun a Web
http://itunes.apple.com/us/book/spider-who-had-never-spun/id525705744?mt=11&affI d=1503186
It is a static book, free to download. My app is the exact same story, but also readable on the iphone. It has a more interaction in that you can touch the background and hear the audio as well as recording your own audio. The app will be £0.99. I thought it would be interesting to see how free downloads of the static book on the iBookstore compare with paid downloads of the app on the app store so I will update this thread with results.

Joe,
This is really interesting; please keep it up. Do I understand that neither the app nor the iBook has interactive features? If so, I presume that made the app easier to create. Did you do it yourself or hire someone to do it for you? I continue to be intrigued by the idea of turning my iBook into an app, but it has lots of images and interactives. I know I cannot create the app myself, or at least would rather spend my time creating the content than learning how to build apps.
Thanks.
Jim.

Date and Time comparisons...

Hi! and regards to all.... I´m trying to get the interval from a table depending on current date and time (sysdate), but i´m having problems when comparing date where first one is greater than second one...
My table is defined and populated as...
HRA_ID HRA_INTERV HRA_INICIO HRA_FIN
1 15 01/01/2008 08:00:00 a.m. 01/12/2020 10:00:00 p.m.
2 30 01/01/2008 10:01:00 p.m. 01/12/2020 07:59:00 a.m.
Whend doing comparison between 8:00am to 10:00pm no problem is found and the data 15 is returned... but when comparing in the second interval (10:01pm to 7:59am next day) problems are come.. I supose is because of different days are considered in my sql statement... nevertheless i would like to receive comments...
My sql statement is:
SELECT HRA_INVERV
FROM UBI_HORARIOS A
WHERE TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'HH24:MI:SS'),'HH24:MI:SS')
BETWEEN (TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(A.HRA_INICIO,'HH24:MI:SS'),'HH24:MI:SS'))
AND
(TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(A.HRA_FIN,'HH24:MI:SS'),'HH24:MI:SS'))
Your suggestions are welcome...

Thanks Justin!!, and EXACTLY!!!... That was the first error I found when my supervisors gave me the database ralational diagram... But in this case fields with data type TIME are not allowed.. So, what I´m trying to to is trim the date parte of the field (01/01/2008, etc,etc) and JUST USE TIME INTERVALS... That´s why I´m using to_char and to_date... in order to ELIMINATE DATE PARTS AND USE JUST THEIR TIME PERIODS... But being honest.. i don´t know if there´s another function could help...

Functional and technical comparisons between JDE version A 7.3 and A 9.3

Hi,
We need to convert the modules already written/designed in JDE v A 7.3 to JDE v 9.3.
So I need to discuss with you people the functional/technical comparisons between these two versions.
I have gone through these links to know something:

Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7. Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
3. VM Fusionand Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows. The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
5. VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris. It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

What exactly we do as part of Generate Comparison Terms and Evaluate Comparison terms

Dear Experts,
As part of SAP GTS area menuin SPL Screening process,
I could see below 3 options, I tried to understand by reading SAP HELP and other available documents, but not able to understand completely .
Can you please help me in by explaining these 3 terms.
● Generate comparison terms
● Evaluate comparison terms
● Aggregate comparison terms
Thank you
Rama

Hi Rama,
It is quite simple and below is the required explanation.
Generate Comparison Terms:- This is used to generate comparison terms up for comparison with Business Partners after the exclusion of various exception terms like aliases etc . to get a proper term for comparison.
Evaluate Comparison Terms:- This feature is used to define how much percentage a particular search term should fulfill to qualify for comparison.
Aggregate Comparison Terms:- This is used to keep the aggregate and keep the comparison terms handy for ready reference against Business Partners during SPL check. This drastically increases the system performance.
The real meaning of the above terms will be more clear when you will go inside each of these areas and check what it is doing.
Regards,
Aman

XI and Tibco comparison

Hi,
Has anyone done detailed analysis and comparison of SAP XI and Tibco's integration platform.

To some extent !
Here are few
> Tibco does publish/subscribe very well. There is no such concept in XI. You can however "fake" pub/sub
> Has many adapters that are Tibco built..SAP relies on other vendors except for a few
> Tibco does not have asynch SOAP/HTTP. XI does
> Tibco UI is much more matured than XI. Simple and productive techniques (for example a JDBC adapter has ways of verifying connection etc..) Lot less features in XI
> Concept of integration in terms of semantics and steps is a little more complex in XI
> XI's monitoring, message level trace, message resubmission, pipelining, components monitoring are way ahead of Tibco.
> XI lacks took like BW Tester to test the process before deployment ("activation")
> XI - no need to message with stupid ledger files like Tibco . It is much more clean
> The process of deployment is easy in XI.. No need to worry about multiple moving components
Bottomline:
XI is evolving but it is a question of time when they clean up the weaknesses and catch/beat TIBCO

Before and after comparison in PSE 6

Can someone tell me how to do a comparison of an edited version to the original in PSE 6 for Mac? It's easy to do in quick edit but what about when editing in full edit?
Thanks!

I handle this in another way. I routinely duplicate the background layer, shut off the visibility of the background layer, and work on the background copy layer. Certain functions of the program don't work on the background layer anyway, and this obviates this constraint. Not everyone subscribes to this work flow, but that is ok,
I crop and establish resolution at this stage, as that pertains to all layers. However, I apply adjustment layers and other enhancements to the background copy layer.
In order to get before and after visualization, one can:
A. Shut off visibility of all the newly generated layers individually, and look at the original background layer
B. Merge all visible layers, and toggle between this package and the background layer. Note that I do not flatten at this stage.
C. Create stamp visible layer at the top of the stack (CRTL+SHIFT+ALT+E) and toggle using this.

Switch statement - str and ch comparisons

Hi everyone,
As usual lectures are a fat load of good when it comes to explaining anything, can't seem to get this working no matter how much I look over it.
Basically i'm having trouble looking at a string, determining what is at character three in the string, and then responding by saying what it is (for this I used an if statement in the switch, i'm kinda noob so I can't think of any other way and don't particularly want to change it if it can be helped).
The only problem i'm getting is it says "char cannot be dereferrenced" and points to this piece of code -- third.equals("a") || third.equals("e") ...and so on.
I have included the code for you to see...
thx in advance :)
/*Program offering users

          System.out.println("That is not an acceptable choice");
}

Cheers mate, knew it had to be something obvious.
You would think they would teach us a bit more about ch comparisons before asking us to do it...there's no reference anywhere in lectures to that simple thing.
Thx for your help.

Faclets and JSP comparison using JSF Web framework

I am doing project titled "comparison of JSP and Facelet used in JSF based web application".
I want to know what are the parameters on basis of which i can do comparison.
e.g Facelets fits with jsf life cycle. while jsp doesn't ...... how can i prove this in implementation point of view?
what other parameters are?
Is that practical that my app pressentation layer all views(user interfaces ) built in both jsf + Facelets and JSF+JSP ?
please help me so i start working on project. thanks

I have tried both:
logincontrol.jspf (1)
<f:subview id="sv">
    <h:form id="loginform">
        <h:panelGrid columns="2">
            <h:outputLabel value="User:"/><h:inputText id="username_email"/>
            <h:outputLabel value="Pass:"/><h:inputText id="password"/>
        </h:panelGrid>
    </h:form>
</f:subview>
logincontrol.jspf (2)
<f:view>
    <h:form id="loginform">
        <h:panelGrid columns="2">
            <h:outputLabel value="User:"/><h:inputText id="username_email"/>
            <h:outputLabel value="Pass:"/><h:inputText id="password"/>
        </h:panelGrid>
    </h:form>
</f:view>but nothing changes... i added this line, in the .jsp file:
<%@ include file="WEB-INF/jspf/logincontrol.jspf" %>   by the way, is it good to write a .jspf file for login process and include it to the pages?

Weblogic and Webspehere comparison

Hi All,
Has any one done comparison between weblogic and websphere ? Can I get
the details on how these products compare ?
Thanks
Prasad

I'm trying XSQL Servlet version 1.0.0.0 with Weblogic 5.1.
In my weblogic.properties file I have
weblogic.httpd.register.*.xsql=oracle.xml.xsql.XSQLServlet
I also have
weblogic.httpd.servlet.classpath=d:/weblogic/myserver/servletclasses;d:/xsqlservlet_v1_0_
0_0/lib;d:/xsqlservlet_v1_0_0_0/lib/oraclexmlxsql.jar;d:/xsqlservlet_v1_0_0_0/lib/oraclex
sql.jar;d:/xsqlservlet_v1_0_0_0/lib/xmlparserv2.jar;d:/xsqlservlet_v1_0_0_0/lib/classes11
1.zip
I have been getting this error:
java.lang.NoClassDefError: oracle/xml/xsql/XSQLDocHandler ....
This might be caused by some incorrectly assigned classpath (i.e. does the XSQL Servlet classpath go to the weblogic.httpd.classpath or should it be defined in another path or classpath -- Weblogic seems to have several).
Also, some init args can be set for servlets. Which args need to be set for the XSQL Servlet?
In general, what is the configuration with Weblogic?
null
