Database Source Code Synchronization with PVCS

Hello All,
I would really appreciate your ideas/suggestions on
developing, implementing the following requirement.
I am in the process of developing a mechanism to
validate the database procedure source code in the
application PVCS library, that matches the source code
used for QA and PRD environments. The objective is to
assure that production version of stored procedure
code is the correct / matching version with PVCS, QA
and PRD.This is going to take a lot of work and I am not even sure that is is deterministic. And it is easily handled by the correct process control as well.
The following process control steps allow this.
- Developement ONLY delivers scripts for database changes. Thus table changes, data changes, new procs, old procs, what ever are delivered as scripts and are checked into version control.
- QA does NOT use anything that is not in the version control system. No disks, memory sticks, emails, etc (and in particular QA does NOT use developement database servers for testing.)
- QA are the ONLY ones allowed to install anything to production. This includes all the DBAs and it includes "emergency" fixes (which usually greatly diminsh if the above is followed and QA is actually testing stuff.)
The last step can be enforced either by simply disallowing change access to production machines except for QA and non-developement (MUST be non-developement) admin.
But if you insist, people have been interfacing programmitically with Oracle and PVCS for years. You can search the net for thousands of these. I suspect that you will find that Perl is used a lot in this (but that could be my own bias.)

Are we allowed to use the Web developer function in Firefox version 5.0 to edit the html source code associated with the Firefox home page?

Locking at request of OP - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/844506
Are we allowed to use the Web developer function, under the "Firefox" tab in Firefox version 5.0, to edit the html source code associated with the Firefox version 5.0 home page ( so that we can personalize the home page )? Is this legal?
Sincerely in Christ,
Russell E. Willis

Solution: (Free Download Manager)
Go here: http://codecpack.co/download/Free_Download_Manager.html and download Free Download Manager 3.8.1067 Beta 3, it works perfectly with Firefox 5.0.1
Solution: (to Google mail aka Gmail)
I have had this problem for a while since I did a previous Firefox update, where I had to force Gmail to load in Basic HTML else it's next to impossible to use it. The solution is this: simply update your Java, and Gmail will work without a problem using Standard HTML. To update your Java go here: http://www.java.com/en/ and select "Free Java Download".
And beta normally, universally, means "the not quite there yet version of the version we're aiming for" NORMALLY used during production and testing of a type of software.

Database source code control or version management

Hi all,
I work in a data warehouse development project, where database schema changes form majority of development work. As a development DBA I look after ensuring that all the database schema changes are version controlled properly.
We currently use CVS as a source code control system. We can use CVS well enough where stored procedures, functions and packages are involved. But when it comes to table definitions, we are finding use of CVS bothersome.
Hence I would like to know, which tool are you using for version control of schema changes. Any links to best practices on DB version control would be much appreciated.

I think Oracle have introduced something in 11g for version control. Also you can use third party Software like ERWIN. You can also explore Oracle Data Modelling software which is Beta currently.

How to setup source code control with StarTeam

Hi,
Could anyone please tell me what should I do to set up the source code control?
My company use StarTeam Borland as a source code control tool. I try to set this as a Source Control for Labview by go to SourceControl category ins the Options setup, but I cannot select anything form the list of provider name. Do I have to do any extra step to make it right?
Best regards,

Error during DataBase source creation in SES.

Hi Experts,
As part of creating DataBase source for SES...
We created a table testing_data_for_ses(URL,CONTENT,LASTMODIFIEDDATE,KEY,LANG)
and also the view
create or replace view view_testing_data_for_ses AS
SELECT 'docserver?docid=' || URL URL,
CONTENT CONTENT,
lastmodifieddate lastmodifieddate,
KEY KEY,
'en' LANG
FROM testing_data_for_ses;
Finally we tried to create DataBase source in SES with following parameter names and values
Database Connection String: jdbc:oracle:thin:@<systemIP>:<port>:<SID>
User ID : apps
Password : apps
View : view_testing_data_for_ses
Document Count : -1
Query : select content from testing_data_for_ses

However in this process we ended up with following Error:

Hi raford,
Thanks for your reply.
We just provided the view name....and hence the DataBase source got created successfully.
Now we have two scenarios here
1)
DataBase source in SES with parameter value for URL Prefix : http://<SES-Hostname>
Now when we searched for content... The SES gets us the results....
However when we clicked on the searched result(which is http://<SES-HostName>:<SES-port>/search/query/redirect.jsp?qid=161&did=2001&pos=1&idx=1&fid=)...it says cannot find server...but when i click on cached link(which is http://devilrays.appsassociates.com:7782/search/query/cache.jsp?id=2001&q=row3&fid=)... i could see the whole content.
2)
DataBase source in SES with parameter value for URL Prefix : http://<SES-Hostname>:<SES-Port>
Now when we searched for content... The SES gets us the results....
However when we clicked on the searched result(which is http://<SES-Hostname>:<SES-Port>/search/query/redirect.jsp?qid=151&did=1901&pos=1&idx=1&fid=)...it says HTTP 404 not found...but when i click on cached link(which is http://devilrays.appsassociates.com:7782/search/query/cache.jsp?id=1901&q=row3&fid=)... i[b] could see the whole content.
Are there any changes i need to do so that when i click on search result... it gets me the content.
Thanks
parker.

Fill in a PDF Form from source code.

Hello:
I have a PDF form made with LiveCycle. This form read the data from a xml file. I'm trying to fill it programatically but i don't know how. I'd like to know if there is some way to do this action, from source code or with a command line.
Thanks a lot.

iText is an API which has the PDF edit capabilities.
Read this link : http://www.itextpdf.com/
If you have Adobe LiveCycle Forms ES/ES2 solution component, you need not go for iText; Instead, you can invoke the LC APIs through C#.net and merge the XML data into the PDF.
If you would go with option#2, let me know. I will share you my ideas.

URL parameters for a Database Source in SES

Can anyone provide us a valid url format for creating a Database Source in SES? I have followed the SES Admin documentation, and have tried a variety of options, but am not getting the results I desire.
I have set up a view to my database table using the following syntax:
create or replace view test_tablename2 AS
SELECT 'docserver?docid=' || id URL,
id KEY,
'en' LANG,
POSTDATE LASTMODIFIEDDATE,
DOCUMENT CONTENT,
'text/html' CONTENTTYPE,
SUBJECT TITLE
FROM tablename2;
I also set up the Database Source in SES with the following parameters:
Database Connection String: jdbc:oracle:thin:@IP Address: 1521: MAINDB
URL Prefix: http://<SES computername.domain>: port/
(I can't include the IP address, tablename, or machine names in this forum because they are classified).
So, it crawls fine and gives me the expected number of documents found. And, when I search the source, I get a list of results. But, when I click on the link to the document, I get a 404 Page not found error. The url for the found doc shows as: <SES computername.domain:port/docserver?docid=1866
If I click on the "cached" link, I can see the document just fine and the url displayed is:
http://computername.domain:port/search/query/cache.jsp?id=438567&q=%&fid=
So, obviously, I still don't have the url for the docsever right.
Anyone have any ideas, please?
thanks,
Leah

Hi Leah,
The display URL for a Database Source should point to a separate server that provides web access to the document. It is not meant to point back to the SES instance. As the Admin Guide states:
"This connector requires that there is URL-based access to the records in the result set of the view or query."
In other words, the display URL should be something you can copy/paste into your browser location bar to view the document, with the other server rendering the document information to a user completely independently from SES.
HTH,
Mark

How to protect JSP source code on the Server Side ?

I am new on JSP. I Already know about various Web and Desktop technologies but is the first time on JSP. I know ASP for example.
Well, about .NET platform, it protects my source code on the server, the source code is compiled and on the server, only the compiled file are installed, my source code stay with me...
About JSP, how it works about ? Is possible to hide my source code too ? What the technique to hide the codes ? I need to prevent access to my source codes...

About .exe files, do you know if a java class is more easy or dificult to do reverse engineering ?Depends on who your enemy is. If it's for example a hacker with a lot of C knowledge but zero of Java knowledge, reverse engineering .exe would be easier than .class. If one was interested, one would always take time to learn how to decompile the one or other. Making files secure is a waste of time. It's always "hackable".
If there was a proof of concept, no one major software vendor would have had so much problems with piracy and cracks/keygens. Think about it once again. It's simply impossible. Just have a clear EULA and actually make work of it whenever you discovers if someone breaks your EULA.
I was thinking about, the .JSP can be converted to servlet .java, and converted to .class, this way hide the source code.Once again, one could still decompile it (or reverse engineer, so you call).

Source Code Editor Framework for Flex

Dear Flex Forum members:
As a Flex newbie a quite important question in relation to the "Flex frameworks world" still remains to me, even after some google search sessions:
Does there exist any (preferably free) Flex framework or Flex component covering the functionality of a source code editor with syntax highlighting and syntax checking? -- Anything comparable to the Editor Framework within the Eclipse RCP (Rich Client Platform) or even to the Eclipse GEF (Graphical Editor Framework)?
The background is as follows (and as described in more detail in my first post to this forum):
An Online Shop Management Component shall offer the ShopManager to specify the products and offers in some declarative way and after a pre-defined grammar in place. The application frontend must be realized in Flex, and that's the reason why I'm now searching for:
some kind of textual or graphical editor framework for realizing the Shop Manager's editor which shall support him/her in creating shop specifications/configurations in a grammar-conforming way through syntax color highlighting and syntax checking (error feedback), and
this editor framework being intended for Flex (i.e., being a flex framework)
In some way, much of the editing/modeling functionality is identical to the one offered by Flex Builder (Eclipse application), but in my case this functionality must be exposed as web application (Flex component running on the browser).
Aps., would it also be possible to realize the Shop Management Component as AIR app, distribute it through a web page and run it locally on the Shop Managers client desktop???
Which products/frameworks do you know for accomplishing this task?
Thank you very much for any help.
Best regards
Alessandro

Since people complain about Flex's basic rich text editor (which is a basic building block of the kind of framework you're discussing), I doub't you'll find what you need out of the box anywhere...

Updating Labview source code

There's a way to create a .diff file for upgrading the labview source code, like with patch.exe in C language?

No there is no way build into LV to do that. Maybe there are third party tools which can handle this. You must be aware that such a tool must handle binary files since VIs are binary.

How to synchronize source code using distributed NWDI Servers?

Hello,
I am facing a bit of a challenge trying to find documentation regarding the replication of source code using NWDI/DTR in a distributed environment. By distributed I mean independent instances in different geographical locations.
Scenario
Our customer product (DCs/SCs/etc) will be developed by two teams. These teams are far away from each other, and a local dedicated NWDI instance for each team is a must, due to the distance plus the big size of the product. It should be possible for the teams to work on a same Track. We use a NWDI 7.31 instance.
I have been looking into the documentation and so far I found no guide on how to keep both repository updated with each other changes.
The following links make notes of the scenario but are not addressing the solution properly.
Distributed Development
A synchronization of changes might have to be done between:
Workspaces present in the same repository.
Workspaces present in different repositories.
Developepment Infrastructure (DI) Architecture
Central source file management – in the Design Time Repository (DTR), a file storage in a database with export mechanisms that allow you to synchronize the instances of the DTR in a distributed development.
Solution?
Does NWDI offers any tool to solve this kind of requirement? Am I missing any documentation?
Or, NWDI doesn't have a solution for this kind of scenario?
And by the way, I would expect a "smooth" integration between the servers, like automatic asynchronous replication, with proper managment of conflicts and all the other delightful paradigms of source control.
Are we talking about exporting source code and importing it on the other side? Would this be the only alternative, and how is it done?
Thanks in advance.

A lot of obfuscators, rather than use one-letter method names, use keywords for names. This has the benefit of not decompiling to valid Java
Well, thats only true if you have a bug in your decompiler. My decompiler (jad) handles keywords by adding additional letters (underscores and stuff).
The problem is solved by an obfuscator. Compiled c++ code can be disassembled in the same way as obfuscated java byte code. So, if you were satisfied with the protection of your C++ code, then you should be just as satisfied with obfuscated java byte code.

BUG: JDev 10.1.3 ADF BC Synchronize With Database not available

I am using the "Business Components from Tables" wizard to create my ADF model.
If I specify a package that is 3 nodes deep (a.b.model) then JDev creates a structure that looks like this...
Applications
--MyApplication
----Model
------Application Sources
--------a.b.model
If I specify a package that is 4 nodes deep (a.b.c.model) then JDev creates an extra level in the Navigator like this....
Applications
--MyApplication
----Model
------Application Sources
--------a.b.c
----------model
The side effect of this extra level is that the "Synchronize With Database" option is no longer available when bringing up the context menu for either the "a.b.c" node or the "model" node.
Bob

The problem appears to not be with the Wizard.
Instead, the problem is tied to the Navigator Flat Level control.
If I increase the flat level to a point where the entire package appears in a single Navigator node, then the "Synchronize with Database" context menu item is available.
If the flat level is decreased to a point that the package splits into multiple Navigator nodes then the context meny item is no longer available.

Eclipse - debug step is not synchronise with source code.

Hi,
I have an web application witch run on tomcat, when Idebug the application, the debug steps are not synchronize with the source code. Same thing when I change the code , after making the jar file and putting it in the WEB-INF/lib of the web application, the modifications didn't take place. It seem that the old code always remains. I looked at the compile class in the jar file and the modifications have been taken in to account.
what can cause this kind of behavior ? I relaunch tomcat many times without succes ?
any help ? thanks a lot.

Can it be the case that you compile your JAR optimized, i.e. without debug information? Then your classes are also without debug information.
This sounds very likely as a refresh problem. Be sure that both source files in Eclipse and class files in Tomcat have the same version (e.g. with simple system.out).

Problem file xls with jasper (source code mixed in the content XLS file)

i´m writing xls file with jasper, the problem is that is mixed the source code of the JSP (where doing request) in the content of the file xls, do not import the API thah use.
The java code whit JASPER is like:
FacesContext ctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ExternalContext ectx = ctx.getExternalContext();
JRDataSource dataSource = ......
InputStream inputStream = ectx.getResourceAsStream(parametro);

ServletOutputStream outputStream = response.getOutputStream();
outputStream.write(bytes2, 0, bytes2.length);
outputStream.flush();
outputStream.close(); whay is printed the response in the xml file?
tnk for your help....

Not related to the actual problem, but this line is not very efficient. What if the report is bigger than the available server memory? Or if there are many simultaneous requests which does all the same?
It would result in an OutOfMemoryError. Rather obtain it as an InputStream and write it in a loop to the OutputStream using a byte block as buffer. Or wrap the both streams by BufferedInputStream/BufferedOutputStream and write in a simple loop. Consult the basic Java IO tutorials for details and code examples.
