DriverManager iterating through driver lists, will it create an overhead ?

Folks, i read this on a website:
"You need a database connection to manipulate the database. In order to create the connection to the database, the DriverManager class has to know which database driver you want to use.
It does that by iterating over the array (internally a Vector) of drivers that have registered with it and calls the acceptsURL(url) method on each driver in the array, effectively asking the driver to tell it whether or not it can handle the JDBC URL. "
So does it mean whenever we try to create a db connection, the driver manager would iterate through the entire list of drivers which have registered ??
In case the number of drivers registered are substantial, won't this create an overhead ?

So does it mean whenever we try to create a db
connection, the driver manager would iterate through
the entire list of drivers which have registered ??
In case the number of drivers registered are
substantial, won't this create an overhead ?The number of drivers is never substantial.
Problems in your code are much more likely to cause more overhead than this feature ever will. Add this one to the "don't worry about it" list.

Iteration through a list of map entries

hi,
I am facing a situation in which i have to write a rule to iterate through a list of map entries within a map and again iterate for a given attribute through a map of attributes within the selected map entry.
Can anyone throw light on any function or expression in the XPRESS language in the Identity Manager to accomplish this.
thanx in advance,
yashuwyah

HI,
I cant help you out with full code at this point. But do make use of the following to determine the equivalency between GenericObject and HashMap as shown below.
Basic Operations
� map.keySet() == genObj[*].name
� map.entrySet() == genObj[*]
� map.get(attribute) == genObj.attribute
� map.get(attribute1).get(attribute2).get(employeeNumber) ==
genObj. attribute1. attribute2.employeeNumber� if attribute1 indexes a list object in the preceding example ==
genObj. attribute1[attribute2].employeeNumber� Searches
� find the object with the attribute fullname = �John Smith� ==
genObj[fullname=John Smith]� get John Smith�s employeeNumber == genObj[fullname=John
Smith].employeeNumber� List Operations
� get the names of all permanent employees ==
genObj[employeeType=permanent].nameFor your requirements, I figure that you can iterate through the list in the beginning and assign the initial result to a <defvar>. Then use the reference of this to determine the required attributes next.

How to register 10g ODBC driver list in the Create New Data Source window

Hi
I've checked the dll for the odbc is in the correct home path. However, i don't see the list of the driver when i try to create a new data source. Is there a way besides reinstall the client again.
Thanks

Hi Joe,
According to your description, after you run C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe, Access driver is not displayed when you expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>ODBC>ODBCINST.INI node.
The issue is caused by wrong path of odbccad32, please make sure that you are using Administrator account or you have administrative privileges, then refer to the following steps:
Go to Control Panel.
Click Administrative Tools.
Right-click Data Sources(ODBC) to open Properties dialog box.
In Target text box, type %windir%\syswow64\odbcad32.exe
In Start in text box, type %windir%\syswow64, then click OK to save the settings.

Iterating through a generic list of unknown type

Hi,
I am in the process of creating pdf reports for my project.I have to deal with a persistence api to get the data for the report.The data will be in the form of a list,like List<SomeObject>,all these lists returned by the persistence framework contains object of some type which implements a common interface.But through that interface I wont be able to get all the data for my reports.So I am looking for a generic way for iterating through the list,by providing some metadata for the data within the list. I am planning to use reflection to query through the list.Is there any feature of generic,through which I can easily iterate through this unknown type,preferrably a combination of reflection and generics,I want to reduce the LOC.Any suggestions??

If the List returned by the framework isn't parameterized, Like
public List<K> getList(Class<K> classType);
then you have to cast it to the appropriate type. If you are not sure about the type of the Objects in the list, and you have a bunch of class types you could expect from the list, then you could use instanceof operator.
If it could be Class A or B, then
if (obj instanceof A){
A castObject = (A) obj;
else if(obj instanceof B){
B castObject = (B)obj;
}Even to do reflection to invoke methods, you need to know the method Names. Which tells me you have the knowledge of what could come out of the list. So cast them. Invoking methods using reflection is really slow.

Concurrent modification exception while iterating through list

Hi,
I have a list of objects. I use for each loop in java to iterate through that list of objects and display them.
The problem is that while iterating other thread can add or remove some objects from that list, and I get ConcurrentModificationException.
How can I handle this problem. How can I be sure that I am iteration through the updated list.
Thank you

Synchonize on the list before iterating through it, and make sure that other code also synchronizes on the list before adding to it or removing from it. Using a list implementation that simply synchronizes all the methods (e.g. Vector) will not do that, you have to do it yourself.

Genius will not create 2010 song lists

The majority of new 2010 cd's that I have added to my iTunes library will not create a genius list. I update my Genius at least twice a week as I add new material. If a 2010 compilation has songs prior to 2010 it will make a list from the older songs. I have tried turning off genius, rebooting my computer and turning Genius back on and updating. Some of the=is music was even purchased from iTunes store and it still won' create Genius playlists. It is not a critical problem, but it is certainly frustrating

Finally noticed some or all of my music had been unchecked? Rechecked all music-problem solved

HT5287 How do I change the name, Under Devices, of Remote Disk or Untitled to a name that reflects what I want. In this case" Flash" for USB thumb drives. Also will this create confusion when I connect my Superdrive? Meaning, will it still be called FL

I want to change the name under DEVICES, left column Remote Disk, Untitled to FLASH USB, and still have it read my Superdrive when I connect it?

Each Volume (partition) on a device has a name.
When it is mounted it will appear with that name as an icon on the desktop, and under devices in the sidebar.
Typically a USB flash drive would only have one volume.
They may initially come with names like Untitled or No_Name etc.
When mounted you can rename any USB drive (Or individual Volume if there is more than one partition) by using the mouse to select the name on the Desktop and hold the selection in you can edit the name. That name will stay with that particular drive and will show every time it is mounted.
CDs and DVDs may well have a name which will show when they are mounted. When you make a CD or DVD you can provide a name when making it.
It is good practice to name a new thumb drive or USB disk when you get it to avoid the confusion you seem to be having. Simialrly to name any DVDs or CDs you create

ITunes Consolidation: Will it create duplicates of media files if they already exist in the new itunes destination folder but arent being referenced by the itunes library?

I have a macbook pro from fall 2010. I have been using my external HD as my primary itunes folder for the past 7 yrs ( i.e it is organized by itunes default categorization, etc). However, there is some overlap between my external HD itunes folder and my comps original itunes folder (probably 20-30% of my current library's media files were already duplicated there from when i first bought the HD and transferred files to the external, however they are mostly referenced from the external now). Also there are files in the comp's itunes folder that are not on my external (probably due to organizational mishaps and podcast downloads when not connected to the external, etc). I do not know how many files this is the case for.
Recently, i decided that i wanted to consolidate all of my itunes music into one concise folder on my macbook's HD to avoid these issues going forward. I also just bought a new external which i will use to back up my comp's itunes folder once i consolidate everything to the comp. But i plan on using the itunes folder on the comp going forward or at least using the consolidate fcn to avoid these issues.
Here is my dilemma. Prior to learning of the consolidate feature today, I changed the default itunes folder in settings to the original itunes folder on the macbook and then manually dragged all of the media files from my external itunes folder to the macbook's itunes folder. There were a ton of duplicates or overlapping folders with similar artist names, so i opted to have them merge all folders where possible. After doing this, i realized the itunes library still references these files that i dragged and dropped from the external since that is where my default itunes folder used to be. At that point i then read and learned of the consolidate itunes feature which seems like the best way to do this. But i am afraid that if i consolidate my library to my macbook's itunes folder now, will it create duplicates of the 4000 + media files i just dragged to the macbook's itunes folder which are already in the itunes library but being referenced from the old external??
Question: Is there a way that i can make these files i just dragged to the macbook's itunes folder become the ones referenced by the itunes library through the consolidate feature without creating duplicates of these 4000+ files? I want to avoid having three copies of these files (two duplicates in the itunes and the originals on the external). Furthermore, is there a best way to find out which files in the macbook's itunes folder are not being included in the library after consolidating everything to the computer's HD? Then after that, what is the best way to start backing this all up to my new external, so that this overlapping issue doesnt happen again? Im assuming i just need to make sure to consolidate first when changing itunes folders going forward. Thank you. I know that was a lot to read but hopefully someone can help with this issue.

In general:
- The best way to check if files are in a library is to drag the whole media folder to the library. If something was missed it will be added. If it is in the library is won't be added a second time.
- If you have a second copy of a file and iTunes does not currently list that specific file in its database then even if it is identical to one already in the database it will add it a second time. So if you have file xyz on the internal drive and the external drive and add them to iTunes you will end up with two entries for the same thing in iTunes because you really do have to copies of the files. While this can happen with two copies on a single drive, it will almost definitely be the case when you have a copy of a file on two drives because iTunes really sees them as two different things.
-Unless you know how iTunes works, avoid moving files yourself. Let the consolidate feature do all the file moving. Manually moving files can really mess up iTunes unless you know what you are doing and have iTunes set to not try to do it itself.
- There's no clean and easy way to delete duplicates. The best thing is to change practice so you don't create them. Here are references:

Iterate through two lists

Hello,
I'm writing an application that generates two seperate sets of data from a database which are stored in two lists; list A & B. I need to cycle through one list (*B*) and remove data according to my search criteria. When I encounter data that I'm going to remove, it has to be done on list A as well.
Is it at all possible to use one iterator to cycle through list B and modify A at the same time? If so, please explain.

For those who are interested, here is the code I used to solve the problem. All the writers create an html booklet for easy interpretation. And yes, I did take into consideration the fact that removing an item from the list offsets the counter and will skip n+1. The use of while( cdList.contains( trimmedcdValue )) was introduced to handle such a case by continuing to delete duplicates (by grabbing their subscript) within the list.

How to Loop through another list and update a column with SharePoint Designer 2013 Workflow

Hi,
I am trying to get my head around the new 2013 Workflow Engine and SharePoint Designer 2013 Workflow Text-Based Designer.
I have two lists.
List A has 2 columns: Title, Completed (Yes/No)
List B has 3 columns: Title, LookupListATitle, Completed (Yes/No)
All the 2013 Workflow components have been installed and configured and I am selecting the 2013 Workflow option in SPD
I am trying to set off a 2013 Workflow when an item in List A is edited to Loop through List B and select items where the LookupListATitle column's value is equal to the Title value of the current item, and set the value of the Completed column for those
items in ListB to "Yes".
I have the Workflow configured like this:
Stage: Stage 1
IF Current Item:Completed equals Yes
Loop: 1
The contents of this loop will run repeatedly while: ListB:LookupListATitle equals Current Item: Title
Update item in ListB.
(The dialog options for the update item action as follows:
List: ListB
Field: Completed, Value: Yes
In the Find the List Item section
Field: LookupListATitle
Value: Current Item: Title)
Transition to stage
Go to End of Workflow
When I update an item in ListA and set its Completed column to Yes, I would expect the Workflow to find all the items in List B where the Lookup column is equal to ListA's Title (there are 2) and update their Completed column to Yes. But it doesn't work.
When I look at the Workflow Status it says the Internal Status is "Canceled" and the information pop up has the following alien language (and may be truncated):
RequestorId: 95f03b62-8956-ac14-c5cf-dc98c89c589c. Details: System.ArgumentException: Invalid JSON primitive: Item001. Parameter name: value at Microsoft.Workflow.Common.Json.JXmlToJsonValueConverter.ConvertStringToJsonNumber(String value) at Microsoft.Workflow.Common.Json.JXmlToJsonValueConverter.ReadPrimitive(String
type, XmlDictionaryReader jsonReader) at Microsoft.Workflow.Common.Json.JXmlToJsonValueConverter.JXMLToJsonValue(XmlDictionaryReader jsonReader) at Microsoft.Workflow.Common.Json.JXmlToJsonValueConverter.JXMLToJsonValue(Stream jsonStream, Byte[] jsonBytes)

executor, BookmarkManager bookmarkManager, Location resultLocation)
Unfortunately I don't have access to the server, logs etc.
I would love to find some tutorials, or any books on SharePoint Designer 2013 in general and Workflows in particular but my searches haven't turned up much so far apart from a pre-release Beginning SharePoint Workflows which is in its very early stages and
not much help yet.
Can anyone give me some guidance on how to set up While Loops to iterate through a related list using SharePoint Designer 2013?
Mark

Hi,
I understand that you wanted to update the items in the other list (Participants) where the Course equals the Current Item.
You need to use “Call HTTP Web Service" action and “Build Dictionary" action to get the Maxid and then loop Participants to update the items.
You can follow the steps as below to achieve what you want:
Create a custom list named Courses, add columns: Title(Single line of text), Course ID(Single line of text), Course Finalised (Yes/No).
Create a custom list named Participants, add columns: Title(Single line of text), Course(Lookup), CourseFinalised (Yes/No).
Create workflow associated to Courses, start the workflow automatically when an item is created or changed.
Add conditions and actions:
The HTTP URL is set to
https://sitename/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('listname')/items?$orderby=Id%20desc and the HTTP method is set to “GET”. Then the list will be order by Id and desc.
Then if Course Finalised is equal to Yes, the CourseFinalised of the associated items in Participants will be updated to Yes.
More information:

Canon ip6000d printer driver not in driver list

Just bought a Macbook Pro with 2.5 GHz and it's working great. so far only one problem I haven't been able to fix. I have a Canon ip6000d connected to a Windows desktop which is always on. This desktop is hardwired to a Linksys router, and the Macbook connects to the router without any issue. When I go to system preferences and try to add the network printer, it shows up in the list of printers connected to the desktop as CANON PIX. I select the printer, and no driver is available. I try and "Select a driver to use...", the Canon ip drivers skip straight from 5200 to 6700.
Not only did I go to Canon's US website and download the latest driver, it's also supposed to be included with Mac OS 10.5. I tried connecting the computer to the Macbook by USB, and it worked without any issue at all, showing the correct (Canon ip6000d) driver. To me, this means that I have the driver installed on the computer.
In any case, I am still unable to print over the network. Any ideas?
a.s

As you have found, the Canon v4.8.3 driver for the iP6000D that is included with Leopard cannot be used when you are trying to connect to the printer when it is shared by Windows. For this type of connection, you need to use the Gutenprint drivers. However, the version 5.1.3 included with Leopard does not include the iP6000D. So you need to get v5.1.7 from Sourceforge (http://gutenprint.sourceforge.net/index.php3) which does include the iP6000D as a supported printer. Run this installer, it will remove the current v5.1.3 and install the v5.1.7 files. Then when you look through the list you will see the "Canon PIXMA iP6000D - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.1.7".

DriverManager iterating through driver lists, will it create an overhead ?
