Doing a Monthly Check in JAVA based off of Date
Hi, what im trying to do is write some code that performs a check to see if a month has passed and resets a variable value to 0, Its basically supposed to emulate a monthly transaction limit. I have no idea how to manipulate date objects any help is appreciated!
A java.util.Date represents a moment in time.
A java.util.Calendar is used to manipulate times and dates and do time/date calculations.
You'll probably end up using its subclass, GregorianCalendar.
A java.test.SimpleDateFormat can be used to parse and format Dates from/to Strings.
You may also need to use a java.util.Timer and java.util.TimerTask to handle regularly performed execution, e.g., checking once a day to see if a month has passed.
Start there.
Have you decided how the program will be invoked? Do you intend to leave it on continuously, or to invoke it regularly and have it end frequently, for example, running the program once a day, doing its stuff, then ending, to be started again the next day? If the latter, you will need to worry about persistence, probably.

No checking if Java are up to date
Some sites are not in Java safe list, therefore they can't be displayed if I install the newest update of Java. I want to keep the old version, but Firefox doesn't accept and keep asking me to update it, not showing the content I want. How can I disable this feature?
Oracle recommends only running signed applications. If that is impractical, there is a mechanism to trust the site to run unsigned applets. See: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/appsecuritydialogs.xml#unsigned

Is there a free java based forum that does NOT require disk write access ?
Hello,
I've been trying to set up mvnForum (www.mvnForum.com) on my site but I've had to give it up as the way the server is set up I can only give write access to Tomcat if I give write access to everyone !
I don't need my forum to have disk access as it can just use the mySQL database the whole time. So is there a good java based forum out there that does not require disk access ? I'm hoping to find one that has e-mail authentication for people who register and things like that.
I know a php forum that will do it already but as the rest of the site is written in jsp it would be nice to be able to integrate it properly. Any help greatly appreciated.Please try mvnForum beta3, it doesnot require disk write. Since RC1 mvnForum use disk access to write Lucene search index and attachment file.

Month Year values based on Posting Date
In my super huge extra large InfoCube (0CFM_C10) I got a lot of data. I take Posting Date, some KFG and CalMonth/Year. Unfortinally CalMonth/Year duplicates records, if I drop it off the columns/rows I get valid data by Posting Date.
My question is this - is it possible to create some MonthYear Calculated KFG/field/formula or smthng. based on Posting Date? In other words I need Month/Year in rows/ columns or free characteristics...
Edited by: Gediminas Berzanskis on Mar 18, 2008 10:18 AMDear,
When canceling a payment which was created in previous posting periods,
we get system message "Date deviates from permissible range",so
the workaround is changing back the posting period to the previous one
and try to cancel the payment.
However,another system message pops up when we try to cancel payment
after changing back the posting period,which is the "creation date" or
"posting date".
In this scenario, you should select the second option from the
cancellation options window, which is the 'Creation date'. I would like
to explain more below.
Posting Date- means the posting date of the cancellation document, it's
not the posting date of the incoming payment that you wanna perform the
cancellation. In your case, selecting this 'posting date' option, system
deems that you want to post this cancellation document on its own
posting date.
Creating Date- means the posting date/creation date of the incoming
payment, it makes sense that the system works fine if you select this
option. If you cancel the incoming payment and check the JE generated,
you will find that the posting date of this cancellation document is
actually recorded as the posting date of the incoming payment.
Wish it helps you.If you have any problems,please kindly let me know.
Thanks and best regards,

RE: Java-based Client for Forte/IIOP
We have deployed an application using JDK 1.1.6,
Swing 1.0.3, Visibroker 3.2, and Forte 3.0.G.2.
We are also using Forte's Java Interoperability
Service.
We have a closely-held client base (i.e. not a
million random yahoos off the internet), so we can
secure a Java port between client and server and
download a fairly significant client. The Java
client is deployed with Sun's JRE (to control the
environment) with the following configuration:
2.6 MB JRE
765 KB Forte.zip
2.0 MB swingall.jar
1.6 MB vbjtools.jar, vbjorb.jar
100 KB application classes
1) The Swing controls don't interoperate well
with the AWT and Symantec widgets, especially in
an internal frame. They paint slowly on top of
each other, move jerkily, and paint before moving
to the programmed coordinates so it looks silly.
100% Swing controls play well with other Swing
controls and are reasonably fast.
2) We used Symantec Cafe 2.5a to paint the
screens, and had some problems with the
setLayout(null) on things like the Swing tab
folder and split panel. Commenting out the line
fixed it, but I'm hoping Cafe 3.0 will fix it (I
have a person installing it but haven't gotten a
report...)
3) The initial search time to turn an IOR file
into a reference is an annoying 10 seconds, and
the first method call takes about 7 seconds, but
after that is less than a tenth of a second.
Haven't done any digging to find out why yet.
4) If we were deploying this as an applet, we
would probably use the IDL IIOP export--when using
the Java Interoperability service, any method call
seems to load the whole 765K across the
line...class by class. Ugly. IDL just gets what
it needs and is smaller.
5) Also, if deploying as an applet, we wouldn't
have to download the JRE or visibroker jar files,
and would only download the swing and Forte IDL
generated classes as needed, so it would be a much
smaller footprint than the 7MB above. (Note:
However, we would be at the mercy of the browser
being used by client.) Different strokes for
different folks...

My worry is that Swing, while eloquently designed,
represents an attempt to
write a totally new display system which, at least
in the case of my
project, will run on top of Windows. I really like
the Java (or a Java-like

I configured an Early Watch Report for 1 of our JAVA based Portal System including complete configuration for SMD and Wily.
We are on SP-15 on SolMan.
Now, when Report is Generated, it simply runs into 2 Pages and does not provide much detail.
Is this Normal ??. As EWR Reports for ABAP based System runs into many Pages with much more detail.
Thanks,Hi Ruediger,
This is what I am getting.

EarlyWatch Alert - Development Landscape
1 Service Summary
During the EarlyWatch Alert Service, we did not detect critical problems.
Note:
All recommendations provided in this report are based on our general experience. We advise that you test them before using them in your production system. Also note that EarlyWatch Alert is an automatic service.
Section Overview
Rating Checked Area
Java VM Memory Performance
Java VM Activity Reporting
Note: For more information about EarlyWatch Alert, a sample EarlyWatch Alert report with explanations is available in the Media Library on SAP Service Marketplace (http://service.sap.com/ewa). This provides an overview of the check rating strategy and the KPIs that trigger the EWA alerts.
Alert Message Overview
Note: If you need help investigating the alerts listed, order an EarlyWatch contract by contacting your local support organization or by creating a customer message under component SV-BO. If you already have such a contract, a detailed analysis can be performed during the next Service Session. Address the topic when preparing for the session.
Note:
If your system suffers from serious performance problems, create a customer message under component SV-BO with the priority "High" or "Very High".
2 Java Performance Data
Reporting Interval
Data displayed in this section of the report was collected for the time frame specified below.
System Start Time End Time
NPD Sun Mar 09 00:00:00 EST 2008 Sun Mar 16 00:00:00 EST 2008
2.1 Java VM Memory Performance
2.1.1 Garbage Collection Time
Time spent in Garbage Collections (GC) prevents the Java virtual machine from executing any other task. Over the interval reported, this time is not critical.
Average GC Time (Cluster wide) [%]
0.02
The table above displays the cluster-wide weekly average of Garbage Collection (GC) time. Garbage collections themselves have a direct impact on system performance. Furthermore, they may also be indicative of more substantial performance issues that may require further analysis.
Hostname Cluster Element ID Average [%] Max [%]
xxxdev.xxx.com
The table above lists the average and the maximum GC time for the server nodes calculated as defined above. You should investigate particularly high values since these can point to critical situations. As a starting point to analyze errors, you should analyze the log files of the particular server node for the given timeframe.
Recommendations:
If a high percentage of time is spent in garbage collections, you can measure its impact on performance directly. Thus, if the average value is particularly large, you need to analyze this from a general performance perspective. Temporarily high values of the GC time indicate critical situations. You should analyze these specific situations in comparison with other key performance indicators in this report to determine potential correlations.
2.1.2 Fraction of Full Garbage Collections
The maximum ratio of full garbage collection to all garbage collections is not critical in the reported interval.
Hostname Cluster Element ID Max [%]
xxxdev.xxx.com
In general, minor garbage collections must occur more frequently than full garbage collections. A consecutive number of full garbage collections is a clear indicator that the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) is not removing objects from the old space. If the dynamic behavior of the JVM is dominated by old space memory removal, insufficient resources are available to accept requests and their newly-created objects. In this case, the parameter below is analyzed. On a floating interval of all garbage collections, the fraction of full garbage collections is calculated.
2.1.3 Allocation Rate
The allocation rate quantifies the amount of memory allocated on the young generation each second. This therefore quantifies the input to the Java VM. Particularly high values indicate high JVM throughput and so should always be analyzed in parallel with the user load or the number of HTTP sessions.
Allocation Rate (Cluster wide)[KB/s]
1143
Hostname Cluster Element ID Average [KB/s]
xxxdev.xxx.com
2.1.4 Promotion Rate
The promotion rate quantifies the amount of memory transferred to the old space each second. Due to the infant mortality of Java objects, this value should always be much smaller than the allocation rate. One indicator of critical situations is a high ratio of promotion rate to allocation rate, since this implies efficient use of the Eden space cannot be made.
Promotion Rate (Cluster wide)[KB/s]
28
Hostname Cluster Element ID Average [KB/s]

Limiting connections via JAVA based window
My end-users access our database via a Jave based form front end after installing JInitiator on the PC
Does anyone know if there Is anyway i can limit my users to one connection or even 2 on the database per username.
Could i also have timeout on each session on idle time in order that when the connection is idle for say 10 minutes the users session is automatically logged off the db.
Not quite sure how this can be achievedDo the users log in to the database using indivudual accounts, or using a common account name?
If individual, look for RESOURCE MANAGER and/or PROFILE in the concepts manual. -
Problem with Java-based application and WebVPN
Hello. Could you please help me in find out any specification/known limitations in using Java-based applications through WebVPN in Cisco ASA 5520 v8.3(2).
A customer of mine has got in trouble in using a Java viewer for graphical files that is invoked by another application (this one correctly served via WebVPN), that cannot be launched because JVM does not find it (NullPointer).
Our suspects are generically about the URL rewriting of the WebVPN and/or unsupported configuration in the ASA SSL certificates vs Java.
Any hint about where to search or what to try?

Last day of each month in a year based on a Input date?
Hi all,
I have a request from a customer who wants to have a yearly report created in BEx Query Designer which starts in January up to December and they want to have a Month To Date (MDT) and Year to Date (YTD) calculation of a key figure. This report will only show one year at the time based on the date the user give as input at the Variable Screen.
This key figure should be calculated by using the last date of each month for input when performing the MTD and YTD calculation and summarizations.
Example:
January: 31.01.2008 Key Figure = 1000. MTD = 1000 and YTD = 1000
February: 29.02.2008 Key Figure = 2500. MTD = (2500-1000) 1500 and YTD = 2500
March: 31.03.2008 Key Figure = 6000. MTD =(6000-2500)=3500 and YTD = 6000
Etcu2026.
This means that I have to have a lot of hidden Key figures which gets restricted on the different month end dates and formulas to calculate the different MTD and YTD results for the months as the year progresses.
The way I have solved it now is that I have a Customer Exit which gives me the Last day of last year (Exp: 31.12.2007) based on input date and use a Offset on the last day of last year date to get the different last dates of each month.
Since we have a leap year (one extra day in February) this year, the offset to calculate the end month dates will be different for 2007 and next year (2009). This solution is not very flexible, and it will not give the correct MTD and YTD if the customer wants to go back to 2007 and off course next year (2009).
One solution is to create 12 Customer Exits that gives me the different month end dates (January-December), and also takes in account leap year for February for the different years. These Exits will be based on the Input date the Customers put in at the variable screen.
I would rather want to avoid making 12 new customer exits and want your advice and expertise to find out if this is possible in any other way (maybe with only 1 customer exit) to get the last date of each month based on an input date.
Thanks for all your advices on beforehand.
Regards
Oddmar LidHi,
Thanks for you replay and documentation, but it doesn't give me excatly the functionality I'm after. The only MTD calculation code the document provides is the calculation of the following functionality:
"Month to Date (MTD) u2013 From the 1st of month to u201CKey Dateu201D - for current year." This doesn't give the the functionality I want, which is to retrieve a given vaule for a Key Figure for the last dates of the months in a year to calculate MTD and YTD.
This way I have created the query is to have multiple hidden Key Figures that calculates the MTD and YTD.
In Columns in Query Designer it will look something like this:
Selection: MTD January--> Date = 31.01.2008, Key Figure (Always Show)
Selection: YTD January --> Date= 31.01.2008, Key Figure (Always Show)
Selection: MTD February --> Date= 29.02.2008, Key Figure (Always Hide)
Formula: MTD February --> MTD February - MTD January (Always Show)
Selection YTD February --> Date = 29.02.2008, Key Figure (Always Show)
And so on....
This is off course a simplified version, but it shows the core of the solution. What I want to achive here is that the dates used to get the Key Figures (last date of a month) is calculated as flexible as possible, so that the users can go back and forth in time without worrying about the leap year problem and so on. I have now used an offset from the last date of last year and this is good for all the normal years, but when it is a leap year the query will use wrong dates to get the key figure vaule for the last date of each month.
Any ideas on how to achieve this without creating 12 different Customer Exit variables (one for each end date of each month)?
Thanks
Regards

Return current period based off of current fiscal year and date
Good Afternoon,
Is there a way in the webi that I can create a dimension that always reflects the current Fiscal Month based of Fiscal year and date? I have a report that I am trying to show sales for a customer based off the current fiscal month. I would like this report when refreshed to be based off this fiscal month dimension instead of showing each fiscal month or changing it manually. What is the best way to do this?
I have attached an image that shows current numbers by period (month) and then the YTD Totals. I would like to have my 'Period' column always reflect the current period and the Total column to reflect that months totals based off the period column. So for this period (3), instead of seeing 3 lines for each month I would just see the '3' and the total as $541,310.46, monthly as 412,502.09 and my YTD as 1,080,091.06.
Any help is always appreciated!
Thank you,
TiffanyHi,
Create a variable
FlagVar=If([Period]=Max([Period]) In Report;"Show";"Hide")
And apply block filter of FlagVar=Show
Are these coming TotalSales MonthlyGoal YTDSales directly from universe? If they are calculated at report level then you might want to use NoFilter. like =NoFilter([YTDSales]) -
System freezes every time I use a Java based app
Hi all,
Very new to all this as I don't really know what to do, where to post or really how to ask about this.
It started out that I wanted to try to use JAlbum, a program that creates photo albums to share on the web etc..... I upgraded the Java app on my WinXP Pro (service packs and updates in place) to the newest version of Java. I even uninstalled all previous versions of Java, rebooted a couple of times and installed the newer version (j2re-1_4_2_10-windows-i586-p.exe).
I was instructed to install the JEdit free edit pad type app. The application went smoothly. When I exited the installer my system froze. When I rebooted and started up the .jar file all went well. I created a test file and saved it and then exited the program. System froze up. Started up JAlbum after rebooting, same thing. Program works right but then system freezes up and I have to do a hard reboot.
I work with 3D stuff all the time (Poser, DAZ Studio) as well as in Photoshop CS so my system is kept up to date for this reason alone. My system is considered very stable my geek friends and so this is very strange as this has NOT ever happened to me in the years I've been using WinXP Pro!!
Please let me know if there is anything you can suggest, besides reloading up Windows, that's not an option, that's the easy way out and with more thant a hundred programs on board that is not something I relish doing!
Thanks very much

I did update my Direct X that I'm embarrassed to admit was out of date. Still froze the system after the reboot trying to run a Java based app. So now I have tried the vaiable solution and set the nVidia video card options to Application Controlled and I'll see what happens.
I'm going to reboot, again and then run JAlbum and keep my fingers crossed. If that doesn't work then how do I implement the last posters suggestion?? Through the Run dialog (copy/paste and hit OK?)
Thanks much for your help!

Attempting to install the "missing plug-in" using the Firefox prompts results in Java 7 Update 10 being installed, re-installing it is successful and does not resolve the issue, Firefox 18 refuses to allow/display java content even with the proper updated version of Java installed.
This problem ONLY occurred immediately following this mornings update to Firefox 18.0.Context:
Yesterday: Java working fine.
This morning: Update to Firefox 18.0
Java will not work, not at all even with Java 7 Update 10 installed, not even the "verify java version" applet at http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp will display.
When attempting to view/display any java content the "missing plug-in" error bar at the top of the page displays and attempting to install the required plug-in via that method does not resolve the issue even though the correct version of Java is installed and the plug-in checker verified it was "up-to-date". -
Looking for a java-based SDK that handles file conversion to PDF and TIF...
Hi all,
First off, this is my first posting so I'm not 100% sure where to post this topic. So please forgive me if I'm accidentally posting in the wrong location.
My question deals with a project I am currently working on.
I am looking for a java-based SDK that can meet the following requirements...
1) convert all printable file-formats (i.e. JPEG, DOC, TXT, PPT, etc.) into PDF
2) merge multiple PDFs into one PDF
3) convert PDF to TIF or at least do some sort of conversion to TIF
4) works in Java or some sort of web-based language
5) free or relatively cheap
Any advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much.I don't think you will get one API to do them all.
