Difference between Thin Drivers and Thick Drivers
hi all,
can any one tell me the difference between Thin Drivers and Thick Drivers.
regards
ravi
OCI is Oracle Call Interface. That's the lowest-level client API Oracle offers and the API that every thick client application eventually uses. For example, a C++ application using ADO would use the OLE DB driver which is itself written in OCI.
From a deployment standpoint, the major difference is that the thin driver can be deployed to any machine that has Java installed. The OCI driver can only be deployed to machines that have the Oracle client installed.
From a performance & functionality standpoint, there are features that only the OCI driver provides. Depending on the application, the OCI driver may also be faster.

Difference bewteen thin client and thick client
Hi:
can someone explain the difference between the thin client app and thick client app?Thin Client: Little to no logic on front end. Typically a 3 tier architecture. Example is a web browser
Thick Client: Typically a client-server type architecture where some business logic/processing occurs on the front end -
Difference between IVI driver and VXI PnP Driver
There are two type of Instrument Drivers for the same instrument, i.e. IVI Driver and VXI PnP Driver. I want to know what is really the difference between these two and on what conditions which one is better than other?
Thanks in AdvanceHi M.Jonathan,
both driver are a HW abstraction.
The IVI driver bases on the idea that a class of instruments (DMM, Scope, ...) support the same functionality. When changing an instrument you normaly have a different command set for these instruments. You have to modify your code. With the IVI layer, all instruments supports the same functions. The communication is done by IVI and driver layer.
In the description of the VXI PnP Driver. The VXI PnP is VISA based. The idea of VISA is having one API for all instrumentation buses. Based on VISA VXI PnP provides a pool of functions for instruments including GUIs.
'on what conditions which one is better than other' The first question should be: Is there a driver available. Any other reasons depend on the application.
Hope, this helps.

What is the basic difference between Hyperion Planning and HFM
Hi GURU'S,
what is the basic difference between Hyperion Planning and HFM and when do we choose them.On a high level the difference is this:
1. HFM is best for global collection (collecting data from scattered entities), group consolidation and for easily structuring financial reporting (mainly consisting of financial data)
2. Planning is best for modeling your business, starting from a demand forecast and arriving to capacity planning and finally to financial statements, by utilizing business drivers (non-financial data like volumes, prices, productivity rates etc)
Of course, differences may be analyzed at several levels down to technical, but the discussion may turn out to be too long, yet adding little value to the question: "when do we choose the one over the other". Bear in mind that your requirements may turn out that you need both. -
Diff between Thin client and Rich client
Hi Everyone,
Can someone give me a clear picture of the what is the diff between Thin client and Rich client.
Thanks,
KrishnaHi,
thick client (rich client) has/stores all the data inside itself
so it can do application processing without the server with data
thin client uses resources from host computer (from server)
and wihtout that you are not able to work with that kind of client
does that answer your question ?

Difference between 7.0 and ce7.2 versions
Hi Everybody,
Can any body tell me what is the difference between 7.0 and ce7.2
Thanks,
WilliamHi William,
SAP Netweaver Portal 7.0 is the part of main release SAP NetWeaver 7.0. it has all the features like portal, Knowledge Management and Collaboration etc plus you can apply built in packages provided by SAP on ESS, MSS etc
CE 7.1 and CE 7.2 are complementary products by SAP. Their main purpose is to enable the design of composition application easier and more effective. They have various new features compared to 7.0 like AJAX, CAF, Service Repository. But CE portal is only a thin portal means it does not obsesses all the full fledged features of portal like KM, Collaboration, TREX etc.
However, using federated portal concept you can use them both together.
Thanks

What is difference between sy-tabix and sy-index.
SAP Seniors,
Can you please let me know what is difference between sy-index and sy-tabix.
I read the SAP help, it is confusing for me. it looks like both are same from help. please help me.
Thank you
Anitha.HI,
Here is a brief description of difference between SY_TABIX and SY_INDEX and using them with several conditions.
SY-TABIX
Current line of an internal table. SY-TABIX is set by the statements below, but only for index tables. The field is either not set or is set to 0 for hashed tables.
APPEND sets SY-TABIX to the index of the last line of the table, that is, it contains the overall number of entries in the table.
COLLECT sets SY-TABIX to the index of the existing or inserted line in the table. If the table has the type HASHED TABLE, SY-TABIX is set to 0.
LOOP AT sets SY-TABIX to the index of the current line at the beginning of each loop lass. At the end of the loop, SY-TABIX is reset to the value that it had before entering the loop. It is set to 0 if the table has the type HASHED TABLE.
READ TABLE sets SY-TABIX to the index of the table line read. If you use a binary search, and the system does not find a line, SY-TABIX contains the total number of lines, or one more than the total number of lines. SY-INDEX is undefined if a linear search fails to return an entry.
SEARCH <itab> FOR sets SY-TABIX to the index of the table line in which the search string is found.
SY-INDEX
In a DO or WHILE loop, SY-INDEX contains the number of loop passes including the current pass.
Hope this helps.
Thank you,

What is difference between sy-index and sy-tabix and where both are using ?
what is difference between sy-index and sy-tabix and where both are using ?
hi nagaraju
sy-tabix is in Internal table, current line index. So it can only be used while looping at the internal table.
sy-index is in Loops, number of current pass. This you can use in other loop statements also (like do-enddo loop, while-endwhile)
SY-INDEX is a counter for following loops: do...enddo, while..endwhile
SY-TABIX is a counter for LOOP...ENDLOOP, READ TABLE...
Here is an example from which you can understand the difference between sy-tabix and sy-index.
Itab is an internal table with the following data in it.
id Name
198 XYZ
475 ABC
545 PQR.
loop at itab where id > 300.
write :/ itab-id, itab-name , sy-tabix, sy-index.
endloop.
My output will be :
475 ABC 2 1
545 PQR 3 2
Sy-tabix is the index of the record in internal table.
sy-index gives the no of times of loop passes.
So, for the first record in the output (475 ABC), 2 is the index of the record in internal table and as it is first time loop pass occured, sy-index value is 1.

The difference between chapter markers and dvd studio pro markers
Does anyone know what is the difference between chapter markers and dvd studio pro markers? I can not find anywhere on Google. Also in the tutorials I have seen, suggesting DVD Studio Pro markers, but it did not mention the chapter markers.
Thanks,"Adding Chapter and Compression Markers to Your Sequence
Once you have your edited sequence or program finished, you can add markers to the sequence for use on DVD. Markers are reference points you can place within clips or sequences that identify specific frames. There are two kinds of markers you can add that directly relate to authoring a DVD—chapter markers and compression markers.
• Chapter markers allow DVD authoring applications to create a navigable chapter list for your exported QuickTime movie. Chapter markers force MPEG keyframes (known as I-frames) at their location, since the DVD specification requires an I-frame at each chapter point.
• Compression markers identify areas of abrupt change and include two types: those that are automatically inserted by Final Cut Pro at all edit points, and those you manually place in the clip or sequence. Like chapter markers, compression markers force I-frames at their location, although in this case it is for better quality encoding, and they are not used to create a chapter list.
Note: When you export a QuickTime movie, you have an option to export various kinds of markers, including compression, chapter, or DVD Studio Pro markers. *When you choose to export DVD Studio Pro markers, Final Cut Pro actually exports chapter markers and all compression markers.* This includes compression markers you set manually, as well as ones created automatically by Final Cut Pro at edit and transition points."
From the Final Cut Pro User Manual.

The difference between an iphone and an ipod touch?
i want to know if the difference between an iphone and an ipod touch is just that the iphone is like a phone that has internet and is a phone. or what else is it?
The iPhone includes the same as an iPod Touch but also includes a phone, a camera, and a GPS radio.
In addition to having internet access via wi-fi, the iPhone also has internet access via the cellular network, so as long as you have cellular reception with the iPhone, you have access to the internet in addition to having access via an available wi-fi network. -
The difference between system restore and last good known configuration
hi,
what is the difference between system restore and last good known configuration.
in which situation you use system restore ,and in which situation you use last good known configuration.
very short answer wil be enough.
thanks
johan
h.davidLast Known Good Configuration deals only with Starting Windows eg. a bad registry or incorrect driver is preventing Windows to start.It recovers the registry settings of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet
While System Restore uses restore points to return your system files and settings to an earlier point in time without affecting personal files. Restore points are created automatically every week, and just before significant system events, such as the installation
of a program or device driver. You can also create a restore point manually.You can undone system restore but there is no such option in Last Known Good Configuration.
Last Known Good Configuration is disabled in Windows 8 or,Windows 8.1 by default.
Try using Last Known Good Configuration if you can't start Windows, but it started correctly the last time you turned on the computer.
Try using System Restore to return the system to an earlier point in time when things worked correctly.

difference between sy-datum and sy-datlo
hi,
The GET TIME statement synchronizes the time on the application server with the time on the database server and writes it to the field SY-UZEIT. SY-DATUM and the system fields for the local timezone (SY-TIMLO, SY-DATLO, and SY-ZONLO) are also reset.
SY-DATLO
Users local date, for example 19981129, 19990628,
SY-DATUM
Current application server date, for example 19981130, 19990627,
SY-DAYST
X during summertime, otherwise space.
SY-FDAYW
Factory calendar day of the week: Monday = 1 Friday = 5.
SY-TIMLO
Users local time, for example 154353, 225312,
SY-TZONE
Time difference in seconds between local time and Greenwich Mean Time (UTC), for example,
360, 10800.
SY-UZEIT
Current application server time. for example 164353, 215312,
SY-ZONLO
Users time zone, for example, EST, UTC,
