Documentation of the FDS metadata tag

Can anyone direct me to detailed documentation of the
<metadata> tag used in an FDS destination?

David-
Better yet, this limitation no longer exists in 3.0.

Hi Marc,
It's more than six months later, and this is an important insight that needs to be in your
documentation.

The documentation is a bit misleading: we do support the order column in
relations. The only limitation is that you cannot have the one-to-many
optimization with the "inverse" attribute and use ordering at the same
time. But if you have a join table (or use Kodo's default generated
schema), then you should be able to specify ordering on your relations
just fine.

Hey Kodo,
I noticed your ordered and order-column extensions in the manual. I'd
really, really, really like to use these props for a Vector of child objects
so I don't have to maintain the order column myself. The documentation
mentions however that these properties are not available for 1-many Object
collections but only for collections of simple values etc. Can you tell me
whether future versions of Kodo will support this, and if so, when?

The SWF metadata tag has optional attributes widthPercent and heightPercent. The expected format is "[ws]double%[ws]". For example, [SWF (backgroundColor="#FFFFFF", widthPercent="92%", heightPercent="81%", frameRate="60" )]. Don't blindly strip off the last non-whitespace char and allow the % to be optional.

How to edit hidden metadata tags?

Hi, how can I edit the hidden metadata tags used for television (season, episode, etc.) ? I know that iTunes automatically inherits metadata tags from mp4 files, but I am using avi files wrapped in a quicktime media link. Is there a way to do this directly? Alternatively, is there a way to wrap a media link in a mp4 file?

Having looked around, I can only find two programs that support editing these "hidden" tags: Lostify and Atomic Parsley. Lostify is limited to MPEG4 video, and Atomic Parsley is limited to MPEG4 in general (.mp4, .m4a, .m4p, .m4v, .m4b). There doesn't seem to be a tool out there that lets you, say edit the iTunes Music Library.xml file, which would be dang handy.
http://home.comcast.net/~lowellstewart/lostify/
http://atomicparsley.sourceforge.net/
Has anyone come across any other options?
What I find particularly exasperating is that "rational" hand-editting of the XML file seems to have no impact (e.g., I have a bunch of podcast episodes that were downloaded individually, since they had fallen off the end of the podcast RSS... and there is no way to seamlessly merge them into a single podcast stream -- or to kick them all into the "Music" section of the library).
For that matter, short of re-encoding files, it seems that I'm stuck with Apple's decision about which of my files are audiobooks and which are music...

FDS destination metadata tag

Can anyone point me in the direction of information regarding
the <metadata> tag in an FDS destination?

Hi,
You need to call describeType for the Class. So, something
like this:
var theClass:Class =
ApplicationDomain.currentDomain.getDefinition("mx.controls.Button")
as Class;
var desc:XML = flash.utils.describeType(theClass);
Then you need to extract the data you want from the XML. It
will help to dump out the XML for a couple class to figure out how
to get the Inspectable metadata that you want.

How can I convert the metadata tags on my mp4s to xml files so that they can be read in Windows Media Center?

I have a library with almost 3000 movies and TV shows that I have fully tagged. However, I have decided to start using Windows Media Center and it does its metadata tagging through XML files. I wanted to know if anyone could tell me if there was a way to extract the metadata from those mp4s and convert them to a format that WMC could read? Thanks!!!!

iTunes can make XML playlists so it might be all you need, I made a simple one file playlist and exported it from iTunes. The result is shown below. In principle I could delete the playlist and the entry from the library, as long as I don't delete the file, then later reimport the XML playlist file. I haven't tested this particular scenario, but I assume that iTunes will read all the properties as listed unless it can read some kind of tag from the file itself in which case the current value of the tag would take precedence.
What I don't know is what media center would make of this file, or what its files look like, however assuming they have a similar structure that can be decoded then it should be possible to read data from the iTunes library and write out a text file that will make sense to media centre.

Question about the Before/After/Test metadata tags

i think that i have read all of the appropriate sections on the wiki but i am a little unclear on how/when i need to add extra info to the Before/After/Test metadata tags.
thus far, i have not done any unit tests that require a component to be added to the display list. i was reading the section on how to do that and i see that all of the above mentioned tags have extra info:
[Before( async, ui )], [After( async, ui )] and [Test( async, ui )]
what do those do and when/why do i need to use them?
thanks
additionally, i am trying to run this simple example derived from what's on the wiki and it always times out.
package HM.FO.User {
import mx.controls.Button;
import mx.events.FlexEvent;
import org.flexunit.Assert;
import org.flexunit.async.Async;
import org.fluint.uiImpersonation.UIImpersonator;
public class UserWindowPresenterTest {
//protected var window:UserWindow;
protected var button:Button;
[Before( async, ui )] public function setUp():void {
//this.window = new UserWindow();
this.button = new Button();
//Async.proceedOnEvent( this, this.window, FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE, 20000 );
Async.proceedOnEvent( this, this.button, FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE, 20000 );
//UIImpersonator.addChild( this.window );
UIImpersonator.addChild( this.button );
[Before( async, ui )] public function tearDown():void {
//UIImpersonator.removeChild( this.window );
//this.window = null;
UIImpersonator.removeChild( this.button );
this.button = null;
[Test( async, ui )] public function on_user_saved_clears_password_fields():void {
// this.window.pass_txt.text = "foo";
// this.window.pass_confirm_text.text = "bar";
// var presenter:UserWindowPresenter = this.window.presenter as UserWindowPresenter;
// presenter.on_user_saved( null );
// Assert.assertNull( this.window.pass_txt.text );
// Assert.assertNull( this.window.pass_confirm_text.text );
Assert.assertTrue( true );

Okay, so the async modified is used to indicate that the asynchronous statement will be used.
There is a bit of overhead adding async to tests, so, we don't actually instantiate the code that handles Async unless the async attribute is in the Before, After or Test. If you don't place the async in these tags [Test(async)] and attempt to use the async code. Async.whatever... you will get an error.
Regarding the ui, attribute, the same concept was intended to apply for ui elements... in other words we wouldn't build the necessary infrastructure.. that is an optimization and right now is not in play. so you will not see different behavior with or without the ui.
If I copy your code directly from below and paste it in my environment it passes.

How to include BC documentation in the metadata repository

Hi experts,
Currently, my bw 3.5 system doesn't display the business content documentation in the metadata repository, the one available in the help.sap.com sitie.
In the sap documentation is stated:
"To include SAP Content documentation in the online documentation generated for metadata objects, it must be installed in plain html http format for static help and using a Web server. The Content documentation can then be read by the Web server from any front end platform using the http protocol, and displayed in a Web browser.
You can find additional information about maintaining setting variants for online help (transaction SR13) in the Business Information Warehouse Implementation Guide (IMG), under the node General BW Settings ® Settings for Displaying SAP Content Documentation."
however I can figure out how to put the bc documentation in my metadata repository
I execute TC SR13, and has this entry in the PlainHtmlHttp tab:
ONLINE-EN WN32 IWBHELP http://help.sap.com saphelp_nw04/helpdata EN default is ON
I appreciate an step by step solution for my problem
thanks everybody

I dont know if theres a way to do that....
I think is not possibl because if you want to open the web pages of help.sap is requered that your SAP system would have http connection directly to internet and at least by a security issue no recommended.....
Use sap help in web....

Flash "Collection Item" metadata tag?

Hi!
While creating Flash components I am using metadata tags Inspectable and Collection. This two allow me to do everything I need, in most cases. But in Flash IDE using Component Definition panel you can define much more:
For me "Collection Item" support is much preferrable than [Inspectable(type="Object"...)], because white editing Collection I can specify enumerations and Booleans -- with Objects only text fields allowed. How can I specify it in my code? Is there any documentation about additional metadata tags supported in Flash IDE?

Where do you see the metadata tag injectors? That is not a documented Flex Metadata tag that I have heard of.
A lot of frameworks create their own and you should be able to use that in both Flex and Flash Pro [assuming an AS3 framework].
If you google on Custom AS3 Metadata in Flash Pro quite a few links come up. Here is one: http://patrickmowrer.com/2010/03/03/compiling-custom-as3-metadata-flash-professional

Valid Metadata tags?

Hello,
If you look at
this
documentation page, there are lots of valid metadata tags missing
(just a couple of examples: Exclude, Managed). Why that? Where can
I find the full list of documented metadata tags that are permitted
in flex?
Thanks,
Robert

Question about the Documentation Tags for Source Code

Hello,
I have a question about CVI's automatic source code documentation. My problem is that is seems like you need to write all documentation for a specific tag on one line. If you don't, a line break will be inserted when the documentation is displayed. Suppose I want to write a large amount of documentation for the function itself, using the HIFN tag. If I don't want linebreaks to be forced in the documentation, I need to write all this documentation on one single line, which kinda messes up my code. If I split the documentation over several HIFN tags, the documentation displayed to the user might look messed up because of all the linebreaks. Is there any escape character I can put at the end of a line, allowing me to split the documentation of several HIFN lines without forcing linebreaks in the documentation?
Thanks!

This information is certainly useful. Note, however, that it can also be found in the documentation
Tag
Description
/// HIFN help text
Specifies the help text for the function. Use multiple /// HIFN tags to display help text for the function on separate lines. To separate help text with an empty line, use /// HIFN on a line by itself. You also can use HTML tags, but you must enclose the tags in <HTML><BODY></BODY></HTML> tags.
Example
/// HIFN SampleFunction returns the value of a control.
int SampleFunction (int controlID, ctrlType controlType, char label[], double *value)

Flash CS5.5[Publish Settings]: How to include custom Metadata tags in swf?

In Flash CS5, the 'Publish Settings' for the fla had an 'Export SWC' checkbox that took care of that.
The option is missing. Why was it removed and how can that be done in 5.5?

Thanks sinious, but, it doesn't work.
Let me elaborate on what I want to do:
I'm trying to create a swf in Flash CS5.5, that's using a flex library (swc) that relies on Metadata tags (anotations).
I need to use the metadata tags in my as3 code (in the fla), and They need to be compiled into the swf (by Flash CS5.5 compiler...).
Although, when I load that swf, the metadata tags aren't compiled into it (I'm using describeType to check if tags are available in the swf).
In flex, I would use the '-kepp-as3-metadata+=' compiler setting to do that, in Flash CS4 & CS5 I used the 'Export SWC' in the publish settings, but that's removed (WHY???).
Checking XMP Metadata didn't change that, the tags are still not included in the compiled swf.
Anyone?

I want a stamp to write to the file metadata and be able to display the result in windows explorer.

I want a stamp to write to the file metadata and be able to display the result in windows explorer. I have read PDF Stamp Secrets and can write to Custom Metadata but don't know how to display that custom field in explorer. Can I have the stamp write to a standard (non-custom) metadata field? Or, how do it get the custom field to display in explorer? Windows is pretty stingy with the file details it displays for PDF files, in fact there are no editable fields provided (like are available for Office files). I want this to work for multiple users hopefully without having to get the IT group involved to make (or allow) system modifications to make this work. Any ideas? Thank you.

Metadata for Windows Explorer is tagged with different names than the metadata for PDFs. Acrobat cannot copy the metadata to the tagged items of the file header.
There are tools like EXIFTool that can manipulate the data as necessary. Phil Harvey also provides the details about the file types and their metadata tags and values so you should be able to map the tags that need to be updated.

SSIS 2014 Custom Component: "The component metadata could not be upgraded to the newer version of the component."

I recently upgraded my set of custom data flow components to use the SQL 2014 SDK as we are upgrading to SQL Server 2014 RTM. The only change I made to my custom components was to change the references to the following DLLs from version 11.0 to version
12.0:
Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap
Microsoft.SQLServer.DTSRuntimeWrap
Microsoft.SQLServer.ManagedDTS
Microsoft.SqlServer.PipelineHost
After rebuilding my assembly, adding it to the GAC, and placing it in the appropriate directory structure (the 120\DTS\PipelineComponents directory for both the x86 and x64 versions), my components no longer display in the SSIS toolbox in SSDT. In
addition, whether loading up my packages in SSDT or executing them via the SSIS catalog (in SQL 2014), I get the series of error messages below. I do have a PerformUpgrade method implemented in my packages that has worked successfully through previous
component upgrades. I also found this seemingly relevant thread (Custom
SSIS Connection Manager error message in SSIS 2014 (RTM): The connection manager '' is not properly installed on this computer.) and tried modifying the extensions.xml script, but I was unsuccessful with this approach (though I could have done so
incorrectly).
Validation error. DFT Process Changes: DFT Process Changes: The component metadata for "xxx, clsid {874F7595-FB5F-40FF-96AF-FBFF8250E3EF}" could not be upgraded to the newer version of the component. The PerformUpgrade method failed.

Hi Ben,
Please also update the reference to the SSIS assembly Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Design located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\120\SDK\Assemblies folder to the version 12.0.0.0. Besides, rename IDTSxxxx110 objects to IDTSxxxx120.
It may also be the factor that the custom mapping file is not created correctly. You can make a copy of the built-in mapping.xml.sample file, rename its extension to XML, and then edit its <ExtensionMapping> attribute:
<ExtensionMapping tag="mycustom extension"
oldAssemblyStrongName="MyCustomAssembly.MyCustomTask, MyCustomAssembly, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91"
newAssemblyStrongName="MyCustomAssembly.MyCustomTask, MyCustomAssembly, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91" />
Then, we need to upgrade the packages, and SSIS will read all the XML mapping files placed in this directory during upgrade.
References (although the blogs are written for SSIS 2008 by Matt, we can still refer to them for SSIS 2014):

In A3, How Do I Show or Hide Empty Metadata Tags?

When creating metadata views for various workflows, I would decide whether or not to include a particular tag based upon that tag either being empty or having a value.
As some photos in that workflow did not always have a value in said tag, I would click several photos in succession to look for tags that had values, and would then check or uncheck that tag. This was especially useful when cameras added new info.
In A3, it seems that I have to go through many steps to turn a tag on, go to a photo to see if it has a value; if it doesn't, then go back through the same steps to turn it off, etc. ... In other words, a one-click toggle in the A2 Metadata interface now requires many, many steps in A3 to accomplish the same thing ...
... unless they put the Show/Hide Empty Tags somewhere else ...
Does anyone know where?

Anyone Please look into this!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks in advance,
Dhana
