Difference among Technololgy,Language,Spec and Tool

Hi Java people
I hav a question ...what is difference among Technololgy,Language,Spec and Tool...
Ed Roman (TheServerSide.com owner) said that Java is not a technology.
It is Spec...
Why?
Please describe that Visual C++ is a language or a technology.
and what is Visual Basic
Thanks in advance.

Why?It depends on the context. When one wants to refer to java the language and J2EE, JTAPI, JMS, etc as a group one might say either "java" or "java technology". In this case it represents far more than just a language.
If the context is "my program is written in java" then it is a language.
Please describe that Visual C++ is a language or a
technology.Same thing.
and what is Visual Basic
This is probably just a language. It is very complete language but the ties between it and other components, unlike C++, are fuzzier. I can write a device driver in C++ but I can't do that in VB. I can however use it in both.

  • Difference in user exit , fm and includes

    HI,
    What is user exit , function module and includes? What is the difference among them? When and how to use them? Please provide example.
    Regards,
    Pramod

    Hi Pramod,
    user exits, function modules and includes can not be compared to each other. Each one of them carry their own purpose and functionality.
    User exit's help you in achieving the additional functionality that standard SAP doesnt offer.
    For example, if your client requirement is add another tab in sales order in addition to the existing ones............it can be done using the user exit.
    SAP has provided several user exits through which you provide the additional functionality to the client without disturbing the SAP standard code.
    you can view SAP standard user exits using t-code: SMOD
    Function modules help you in carrying out a specific task. They can be called into a program to perform a particular task and are resuable any number of times i.e. can be called into any program to perform the same task.
    SAP has already provided many function modules, for example -  for determining exhange rates, reading texts etc.
    Apart from the SAP standard ones, you can also develop your own function module using transaction code SE37 and use them appropriately.
    Includes can be defined as sub programs.........they are part of a program. Include can either be local or global i.e. can be restricted to be used in a particular program and can be made available to other programs.
    Basically, a main program is divided into several includes for a better understanding.

  • ADD-ONS AND TOOLS

    Hi,
    Is there any difference between add-ons and tools ?
    Please give the list of different add-ons available for different applications.
    Thanks in advance
    Srinivas.

    Hi Srinivas,
    The basic difference between an add-on and tools is that - a tool can be used without B1 but an add-on can only be used within B1.
    Below is the list of standard SAP Provided Add-ons:-
    Data Transfer Workbench
    Support Tools (Early Watch Alert, Support Desk)
    Fixed Assets
    MS Outlook Integration
    Business Configuration Sets
    Payment Engine
    Advanced Layout Designer
    Intercompany Transactions
    There are other Partner developed add-on:- basically to handle Manufacturing Process, Scheduling, Payroll, Fixed Assets, Engineering & Construction Management, Quality Management etc,. Will send the list of all SAP Certified Add-ons.

  • What is difference among F5 and F6 and F7 in ABAP coding?

    what is difference among F5 and F6 and F7 in ABAP coding ?  Can u give me any example regarding this thread ?

    Some additional info which can be quite helpful.
    a watchpoint is an indicator in a program that tells the ABAP runtime processor to interrupt the program at a particular point. Unlike breakpoints, however, watchpoints are not activated until the contents of a specified field change. Watchpoints, like dynamic breakpoints, are user-specific, and so do not affect other users running the same program. You can only define watchpoints in the Debugger.
    Use
    You set watchpoints in the Debugger to monitor the contents of specific fields. They inform you when the value of a field changes. When the value changes, the Debugger interrupts the program.
    Features
    · You can set up to five watchpoints in a program.
    See also Setting Watchpoints.
    · You can also specify the conditions under which a watchpoint is to become active.
    · You can specify a logical link for up to five (conditional) watchpoints.
    See also Specifying Logical Links.
    · You can define watchpoints as either local or global. If you define a global watchpoint, it is active in all called programs. Local watchpoints are only active in
    the specified program.
    · You can change and delete watchpoints.
    See Changing Watchpoints
    · You can use watchpoints to display changes to the references of strings, data and object references, and internal tables.
    See Memory Monitoring with Watchpoints
    Breakpoints
    Apart from being able to execute an ABAP program in the Debugger, you can also start the Debugger call by the choosing a breakpoint. This is achieved by setting one or more of these breakpoints in the program. A breakpoint is a signal at a particular point in the program that tells the ABAP runtime processor to interrupt processing and start the Debugger. The Debugger is activated when the program reaches this point.
    There is also a special kind of breakpoint called a watchpoint. When you use watchpoints, the Debugger is not activated until the contents of a particular field change. For more information, refer to the chapter Watchpoints.
    Breakpoint Variants
    The Debugger contains different breakpoint variants:
    Static
    A user-specific breakpoint is inserted in the source code as an ABAP statement using the keyword BREAK-POINT. A non user-specific breakpoint is set in the ABAP Editor using the BREAK user name statement.
    Directly set
    dynamic breakpoints
    Can be set in the ABAP Editor or the Debugger by double-clicking a line, for example. Dynamic breakpoints are always user-specific, and are deleted when you log off from the R/3 System.
    Breakpoints
    at statements
    The Debugger stops the program immediately before the specified statement is executed.
    Breakpoints
    at subroutines
    The Debugger stops the program immediately before the specified subroutine is called.
    Breakpoints at function modules
    The Debugger stops the program immediately before the specified function module is called.
    Breakpoints at methods
    The Debugger stops the program immediately before the specified method is called.
    Breakpoints at exceptions and system exceptions
    The Debugger stops the program immediately after a system exception, that is, after a runtime error has been intercepted.
    Static Breakpoints
    Static breakpoints are always user-independent if there is no specification of a user name. Once a user has inserted the statement BREAK-POINT or BREAK name in an ABAP program, the system always interrupts the program at that point for that user or only for the user name. This procedure is only useful in the development phase of an application when program execution is always to be interrupted at the same place. For more information, refer to the chapter Static Breakpoints.
    In HTTP sessions, a static breakpoint is skipped if you did not set additional dynamic HTTP breakpoints in the editor of a BSP page. Instead, a corresponding system log entry is written, which can be checked using transaction SM21.
    Dynamic Breakpoints
    Dynamic breakpoints are user-specific. Therefore, you should use them if you only want the program to be interrupted when you run it yourself, not when it is being executed by other users. All dynamic breakpoints are deleted when you log off from the R/3 System.
    Dynamic breakpoints are more flexible than static breakpoints because you can deactivate or delete them at runtime. They have the following advantages:
    · You do not have to change the program code.
    · You can set them even when the program is locked by another programmer.
    · You can define a counter that only activates the breakpoint after it has been reached.
    Special dynamic breakpoints are useful when you want to interrupt a program directly before a particular ABAP statement, a subroutine, or an event, but do not know exactly where to find it in the source code. Event here is used to refer to the occurrence of a particular statement, for example, or calling up a method. Special dynamic breakpoints are user-specific. You can only set them in the Debugger. For more information, refer to the chapter Dynamic Breakpoints.
    In HTTP sessions, the system stops both at static and dynamic breakpoints if a dynamic breakpoint was set in the editor of a BSP page before program execution.
    Lifetime and Transfer of Breakpoints
    A static breakpoint remains intact as long as the BREAK-POINT or BREAK-POINT name statement is not removed from the source code. Without saving, dynamic breakpoints only remain intact in the relevant internal session. However, they remain in effect during the entire user session if they are saved by choosing the menu path Breakpoints ® Save in the ABAP Debugger. For more details on the subject of user sessions and modes, refer to Modularization Techniques in the ABAP keyword documentation.
    If you call an HTTP session during a user session, only the HTTP breakpoints are loaded when the HTTP session is started. You activate HTTP debugging in the ABAP Editor by choosing Utilities ® Settings ® HTTP Debugging. Depending on the setting, the system then displays either the HTTP or standard breakpoints in the Editor.
    If you call an update session during a user session, breakpoints that were defined beforehand in the calling processing unit are copied to the new update session, where they can be displayed under Breakpoints. If, in the ABAP Debugger, you check Update Debugging under Settings and then, for example, call the update module func using CALL FUNCTION func IN UPDATE TASK, a new window is opened in which you can debug this function module in the update session. All the breakpoints that were set in the calling processing unit can also be processed here.
    we can keep them at :
    Statements
    Subroutines
    Function Module Calls
    at Methods
    System Exceptions
    break point :
    we can start debugging from that point or if we keep break point at some place we can directly got ot htat point using f6.
    watch point: for example if we have to check the output for 4000 records based on a field value i.e.for vendor number 'in'we have to check then we will create watchpoint on field LIFNR value '2000'. then we can directly go to vendor whose numbe ris 2000

  • Difference bet ween Fleet Object and Production Resource Tools

    Hi all,
    Please give me the difference between Fleet Object and Production Resource Tools in Plant Maintenance
    Thanks in Advance
    Thanks,
    shriraam

    Dear,
    Production Resources/Tools (PRT)
    Unlike machines and fixed assets, production resources and tools (PRTs) are movable (not stationary) operating resources that are required to perform an activity and can be used repeatedly. For example, PRTs include documents, engineering drawings, jigs and fixtures, and measurement instruments.
    Fleet Management
    Here can map the vehicles as equipment master records and enter vehicle-specific additional data, which is displayed in the system on two additional tab pages. This means that you can now specify important fleet data such as the license plate number, load volume, consumption data, fuel card number, engine data, or fuel type and so on directly in the equipment master record.
    You can also perform maintenance planning for a fleet object. You can make the date of the next scheduled service dependent on the distance

  • Difference among the Help view,Database view and Maintanance View

    hi,
    can Anyone pls let me know the Difference among the Help view,Database view and Maintanance View
    thanks&regards
    rama

    The followings are different types of views:
    Database View (SE11)
    Database views are implement an inner join, that is, only records of the primary table (selected via the join operation) for which the corresponding records of the secondary tables also exist are fetched. Inconsistencies between primary and secondary table could, therefore, lead to a reduced selection set.
    In database views, the join conditions can be formulated using equality relationships between any base fields. In the other types of view, they must be taken from existing foreign keys. That is, tables can only be collected in a maintenance or help view if they are linked to one another via foreign keys.
    Help View ( SE54)
    Help views are used to output additional information when the online help system is called.
    When the F4 button is pressed for a screen field, a check is first made on whether a matchcode is defined for this field. If this is not the case, the help view is displayed in which the check table of the field is the primary table. Thus, for each table no more than one help view can be created, that is, a table can only be primary table in at most one help view.

    Difference between "Help View" and "Search Help"
    Projection View
    Projection views are used to suppress or mask certain fields in a table (projection), thus minimizing the number of interfaces. This means that only the data that is actually required is exchanged when the database is accessed.
    A projection view can draw upon only one table. Selection conditions cannot be specified for projection views.
    Maintenance View ( SE54 )
    Maintenance views enable a business-oriented approach to looking at data, while at the same time, making it possible to maintain the data involved. Data from several tables can be summarized in a maintenance view and maintained collectively via this view. That is, the data is entered via the view and then distributed to the underlying tables by the system.

  • Difference between CON-SU3-3945 and CON-SNT-3945E

    Hi,
    Can somebody explain me the difference between CON-SU3-3945 and CON-SNT-3945E, as far as I am concern that first one is cisco service for IPS and other one is smartnet service for IPS, or CON-SU3-3945 is itself IPS bundle i.e. software IPS and  CON-SNT-3945E is smartnet service for  CON-SU3-3945.
    also kindly share if anybody has the sample config or configuration procedure for  CON-SU3-3945 (If this is an IPS).
    Regards,
    Mukesh       

    Hi Mallardnathan,
    The first answer to your question is, yes, you need purchase two service contracts for each Cisco Small Business product.
    These service contracts CON-SBS-SVC1, CON-SBS-SVC2, CON-SBS-SVC3 include the following:
    Three-year support for Cisco Small Business products
    Unlimited telephone and online chat support with Cisco engineers, 24 hours daily in English, business hours in 12 other languages
    Next-business-day advance hardware replacement in more than 65 countries
    Major and minor software releases
    Online service request tools
    The service contract CON-SBS-SVC3 includes all of the above except instead of Next-business-day hardware replacement, it is same day replacement and it is only available in certain countries.
    A service contract is assigned to each product.  For example, a basic SF100D-08 unmanaged switch will have service contract CON-SBS-SVC1, while the SG500X-48P Stackable Managed Switch will have service contract CON-SBS-SVC3.
    For your two products,  RV180 and SG200-08, you will need to order CON-SBS-SVC2 for each of them.

    Hi,
    What is really the difference among A, M and S Tecra series? Which one should we choose?
    It is obvious that Tecra is supposed to be a high end standard in range of the Toshiba Notebooks, but why they make different series of Tecra?

    You just have answered my question. That is a kind of answer I need.
    However I need more descriptions. What about S series, I have downloaded the sheets, and

  • What is the differences between T=0 protocol and T=1 protocol?..

    Hi friends..
    Sorry, i want to know what is the differences between T=0 protocol and T=1 protocol?..
    Which one is the best, Java Card that support for T=0 protocol and Java Card that support for T=1 protocol?..
    Thanks in advance..

    Sebastien_Lorquet wrote:
    Such protocols have NOTHING TO DO with javacard. They have been existing for YEARS before javacard was invented.
    It's just a mean to exchange data with any card. It happens to be a standard, so javacards among others use it to communicate with the host.
    the Javacard spec by itself does not know anything about how the APDUs are exchanged . It can be T=0, T=1, T=14, RS-232, GPIB, USB, ISO14443, Felica, Ethernet, Firewire, a satellite link, a deep space link, or anything you want. The comm part is the responsibility of the card operating system, which is out of scope for the javacard machine that lies onto it.
    Just because you have a convenience method in the APDU class does not mean this is real. It's up to the card / os manufacturer to define these things, it's reasonable to think they are accurate, but I can create a javacard that claims to be contactless and still will use T=0. That's arbitrary.This is not exactly true. For APDU response chaining to work on some T=0 cards (when using smartcardio that handles response chaining for the developer) we had to use some special tricks. It can also be handy to only allow certain actions on the contact interface (such as admin actions etc) to prevent unauthorised access. The [PLAID Applet|https://www.govdex.gov.au/confluence/display/PLAID/Home;jsessionid=9B9EC664A01EC13B098DDF4EE5760A0A] (developed by the Australian fegral government agency Centerlink) only allows the card to be initiliased through the contact interface.
    - T=0 requires a GET RESPONSE additional exchange only for case 4 commands or when the command provides more bytes than requested for an outgoing command. It can also require more than two exchanges if the terminal requests the outgoing data per-block.Don't forget case 2. The GET RESPONSE is at TAPDU layer and is handled internally by smartcardio/PCSC etc and is also handled by the smartcard OS.
    Leonardo, if you want to know the differences between the two, I recommend reading ISO7816-3.
    Cheers,
