  • "Learn" no longer working with Euphonix?

    I've been messing around some more with Euphonix hardware. It seems that since there was 'native support' with Eucontrol 2.5.5 and with LP 9.1.1 there is no ability to assign values to the controls.
    This means that Command-L no longer appears to work with any Euphonix hardware.
    Likewise, the 'auto-assign' / 'contextual-assign' mode of Euphonix hardware that reassigns faders and knobs to the control surface when launching a software instrument or AU no longer works.
    Is this a mistake? Has Apple and Euphonix gone and shot themselves in the foot?
    Has anyone found a way of getting all of this to work again?

  • Need HELP to learn OAF development

    Hi,
    I am an experienced oracle financials developer. Most of my experience has been on using Developer 6i tools to develop front end and reports. Now I am planning to learn OAF framework to develop or to make customizations to the modules like iprocurement,iStore etc.
    I would like to know what is the best way to start the learning process?
    Is it possible to learn/practice the OAF framework(from oracle applications perspective) on my personal machine( it has oracle 10g personal edition installed), with out having access to oracle applications instance?
    I would like to know if there are any good books/tutorials on OAF usage in Oracle applications?
    Please let me know.
    -Thanks in Advance,
    Satya

    I would like to know what level of oracle application access do we need to practice the OAF development ?
    You need full access, including sysadmin responsibility.Do we need to have access to instance in terms of unix servers or just access to the applications is good enough?
    It would be good to have Unix access , for deploying pages , classes etc.Do we need to create any new responisbilities to practice OAF concepts?
    Not required, but a better option.What resposibilities or what level of access do we need to have on oracle application instance to practice OAF concepts?
    It is better to have a unrestricted access.Thanks

  • Need help for learning how to develop interfaces for Oracle R12 EBS

    Hi all,
    I need to learn how to create interfaces in PL/SQL for Oracle R12 EBS Financials. I cannot find a good starting point for the documentation and examples to help me get started in this area. Would appreciate tips
    for this area.

    Hi,
    What kind of interfaces you are planning to develop?
    Oracle already provides list of APIs that can be used (in R12, it is responsibility).
    Oracle Integration Repository Documentation Resources Release 12 [ID 396116.1]
    Oracle Integration Repository
    http://irep.oracle.com/index.html
    If those APIs do not satisfy your requirements, you can refer to "Oracle Applications Developer" guide as well as SQL-PL/SQL guides.

  • Learning MODEL clause

    Hi Gurus,
    I am trying to learn MODEL clause.
    How can we achieve the below result in model clause
    create table t(c1 number);
    insert into t values(11);
    insert into t values(30);
    insert into t values(45);
    select *
    from t;
    C1
    11
    30
    45 Need to take MIN(C1) as from and MAX(C1) as to values
    Then split this range with a gap of 10. Output should be
    FROM_C1          TO_C1
    11          20
    21          30
    31          40
    41          45How can we do this using MODEL.
    I am not getting how to bring the FROM and TO value to the MODEL calsuse, as they are neither DIMENSION nor MEASURE
    Thanks.

    Hi Peter,
    I'm quite happy it looks similar to what I've done.
    This was my first use of MODEL though:
    WITH t AS
       SELECT 11 c1 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
       SELECT 30 c1 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
       SELECT 45 c1 FROM DUAL
    t_val AS
       SELECT MIN(c1) min_c1
            , MAX(c1) max_c1
        FROM t
    SELECT f AS from_c1, t AS to_c1
      FROM t_val model
         DIMENSION BY ( 1 AS x )
         MEASURES ( min_c1 AS mn
                  , max_c1 AS mx
                  , 1      AS f
                  , 1      AS t
         RULES UPSERT
         ITERATE (999)UNTIL(t[ITERATION_NUMBER+1]>=mx[1])
            f[ITERATION_NUMBER + 1]=f[ITERATION_NUMBER]+ 10,
            f[1] = mn[1],
            t[ITERATION_NUMBER+1] = LEAST(f[ITERATION_NUMBER+1]+9, mx[1])
    ORDER BY f, t;
    Output:
       FROM_C1      TO_C1
            11         20
            21         30
            31         40
            41         45And after seen your example I have understood that it could be simplified by directly using the MIN and MAX value in this way:
    WITH t AS
       SELECT 11 c1 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
       SELECT 30 c1 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
       SELECT 45 c1 FROM DUAL
    SELECT f AS from_c1, t AS to_c1
      FROM t model
         DIMENSION BY ( 1 AS x )
         MEASURES ( MIN(c1) AS mn
                  , MAX(c1) AS mx
                  , 1      AS f
                  , 1      AS t
         RULES UPSERT
         ITERATE (999)UNTIL(t[ITERATION_NUMBER + 1]>= mx[1])
            f[ITERATION_NUMBER + 1] = mn[1] + 10 * ITERATION_NUMBER,
            t[ITERATION_NUMBER + 1] = LEAST(f[ITERATION_NUMBER + 1] + 9, mx[1])
    ORDER BY f, t;Regards.

  • How do I make a learner attempt a question, without having the option of a 'Next' button?

    Hi,
    Is it possible to display the feedback option (learner selected) from a multiple choice Question by clicking the next (or previous) page button?
    I have set the progress to the next page, with the option 'Attempts - 1' from the Assessment page. The objective of this exercise was to make the learner attempt the given multiple choice question, without the option of going back or forward during their first attempt. The first time the learner comes across this page, he/she has to answer the question to move forward. Once he/she has answered the question (right or wrong), then he/she will be able to navigate to the next and previous pages.
    Is there any functionality where we can restrict the learner in taking up the test (compulsory), before navigating to the next page (using 'Next' button)?
    Thank you,
    Emayavaramban M E

    Don't show the Next button, but drag it under the Clear button if you have that one. Next button is really meant to skip an answer (which you do not want to allow) and during Review to make navigation possible. Since the Clear button will not be there during Review, then the Next button will become visible. Next is the new label (formerly it was labeled Skip). I explained some functionality of question slides in this post:
    http://blog.lilybiri.com/question-question-slides-in-captivate
    It was written in the CP5.5 time, so you'll still see the label 'Skip' that is now replaced by 'Next'

  • How do I have the learner perform a conditional action based on a button selection?

    The learner needs to select a checkbox on the screen of a performance exercise.  I've put the widget in for the checkbox and it works fine.  After the select the checkbox, they need to select OK on the screen to move them onto the next screen.  However, I don't want the learner to just select OK without selecting the checkbox in order to replicate the sequence correctly. 
    I have a slide which shows the message  which tells them as to what they did wrong when they select OK without checking the box, but when I tie that to the correct response, it will go there whether they select the checkbox or not.
    I've tried adding multiple actions to the button, which doesn't work, becuase the OK button has to be tied to the learner conditionally selecting the checkbox to move on to the correct slide.  If I use multiple actions, and the first action is to SHOW  the slide with the incorrect message, if they correctly check the box and then hit OK, it will first SHOW them the incorrect slide.
    I think what I need is a variable and then add an advanced action with a conditional statement.  However, I don't really know how to do that.  Here's the variable I created, but I don't know what value I should assign.  Here's the screen shot of the variable and conditional statement.  Could someone tell me how to do the variable and the conditional statement so that the learner when selecting OK WITHOUT selecting the checkbox first will be redirected the the error slide and if they select the checkbox FIRST, and then OK, they move on to the next screen?  Thanks,

    Thanks, you definitely got me started on the right track on variables and advanced action statements.  The screen shots helped.
    Here's how the actual fix went to make sure the OK button on the screen had a conditional statement attached to it, with
    an advanced action:
    I created parameters for the widget to link to the variable:
    I created a variable:
    Then I created an advanced action conditional statement for that variable which enabled the button to advance to the next slide when the clickbox was checked:
    Then where I finally realized my final mistake was not setting the button properties to execute advanced action:

  • I'm too old to learn iCal.  How do I tell iTunes to synch with Outlook for Mac for all of the Contacts and the Calendar on my iPhone and iPad??  Thanks

    I'm too old to learn iCal.  How do I tell iTunes to synch with Outlook for Mac for all of the Contacts and the Calendar on my iPhone and iPad?? 
    Also, once I figure out how to replace iCal with Outlook/Mac on iTunes, how do I synch the phone and pad so that the information on those devices over-writes onto Outlook as a backup, rather than having a blank Calendar on Outlook wipe out all of the information on the phone and pad???
    Thanks

    If you haven't tried already, plug your devices into iTunes, and on each device next to the "Summary" tab at the top is another tab called "Info." Click that and scroll down to Contacts, Calendars, etc. There should be a pull down bar under each category for "Sync contacts from..." and you should be able to select from that pull down list Outlook.  Hit Apply at the bottom and see if that does it.

  • Im Trying To Learn Java :o(

    Hey All,
    I have decided to get my mind active and randomly learn Java. I say randomly because i am going to be a student again in IT but i like the kinda 3D side and modelling and nice pictures and flash actionscript lol not all this stuff.
    Anways i would just start by saying that Java offends me massivly, i know something happened with M$ and Sun and ever since then all i have had with the sun download is problem after problem and crashing and all iw as tryin to do was play some Jippii games. This aint a recent problem, it always happens and i must have reformatted xp around 7 times. So i stay away from applets!!!
    Anyways in 2002 when i started learning Flash it was because i seen a site i liked and wanted to do that. The equivelent is kinda like me saying "OK GUYS I HAVE JAVA NOW HOW DO I MAKE DOOM" anyways 2 and a half years later im happy with what i can do and have used alot of different apps and learned alot from 3dsmax to aftereffects etc.
    Anyways my goal out of this whole Java thing is to make a game like one i used to play when i was younger on the Amiga 500. No where has this game and a modern one would be great to play. The graphics suck but the physics were really nice.
    So my questions are:
    1) Java. Ok im going to be honest, i know nothing about Java, i dont even know if it can do what i want and what i really dont want is to spend a while learning this to be stuck with no effects for my game, ie are small particle effects possible in Java? I know Java is pretty slow for a proper language compared to C/C++ but how slow? Can you shift a hundred particles around the screen and still add physics in the background?
    2) Java. The whole thing confuses me massivly. Im not a big posting person as i tend to prefer searching but i dont even know where to begin. I will bite the bullet and say i aint going to have alot of problems with the syntax of the language itself. It all looks kinda how i expect it, obviously i dont mean i aint gonna have problems and lot of them but it is not REALLY alien to me to look at a bit code. At the same time it is. I need to know alot of stuff, things that the 2 ebooks i have just ignored. For example, when i compile something, i thought that meant it compiled to the EXE but infact it turned my "heyworld.java" into a "heyworld.class" file. This just makes no sense to me atall because i HATE command line stuff, i see it as reinventing the wheel so im trying to follow through on first of all netbeans (an that went off almost instantly) and a free one that got my hey world to work (well, class). I need to know if a compiler dont make a exe then whats the class for and what exactly is a class file. You know just stuff like that? Does anyone know i kinda dictionary so to speak? baby talk i mean, so far all i seem to get is explainations with words i dont understand.
    3) How difficult is it to make a 2D game in Java? To make this plainer, i aint having an applet run somewhere, i want a nice downloadable exe. Of course i will need to start at the beginning but i mean to get a ship on the screen with keys to move it and a "cave" roof to crash into, is this going to take a long long long time to get to that stage? You see, as i said before unless after a few days i have a object on screen to work with, i just get too bored to continue. for example "the object of this is to make a red circle move across the screen" REALLY interests me where as "today we are going to make a mock system for a small business user" sends me back to 3Dmax and the lighting i was reading about lol I tend to look at a piece of code and be devestated by its complexity then try and make it make sense over time. Is this possible with Java? It does work for me this, i was picking apart a isometric code in actionscript before i knew what a tween was.
    4) Theres so many different J*** J"EE things floating around that i dont actually know what one i am meant to use? I got 1.4.2 i think but thats all i know. Id like any other things that helped yourselfs start off in Java?
    Sorry to go into a bit detail here, its just that with this degree im starting, it soon branches off into 2 groups. Programmers and Designers. I feel i know the design side well enough to make a comparison but it would be rude to leave this side of the things out and write it off without atleast giving it a shot.
    Thank you very much for your time :o)
    Kind regards,
    Clarky.

    If you want an idea of what's possible with Java, do a google search for "java games" or something like that. I've seen occasional postings of what are supposed to be pretty cool games that have been written in Java, but I'm not into games, so I've never bothered to check 'em out personally.
    As to whether you can do it, well, you'll have to figure that out. Learning Java well enough to create a video game is not a trivial task. I don't just mean the syntax of the language, I mean the many APIs you'll be using, concepts like multithreading and exception handling, good OO principles, etc. Without a good handle on that stuff, your code will quickly turn into a morass that will be difficult to enhance, maintain, or debug.
    I suspect that the code to make a particular graphical event occur will be more verbose and complex in Java than in ActionScript, given that Java is a general purpose language and AS is more geared to GUIs. Nonetheless, I'm sure there are APIs out there (some free, some not) that will provide some higher level constructs than the core APIs to make some of that easier. You'll still be operating in the idiom of a general programming language though.
    There may also be a hybrid solution available--where you use Java to express the game logic and another language to express the graphics. I don't know anything about this kind of stuff though, so that's just speculation.
    You may get more precise advice in the GUI Building forums on http://forum.java.sun.com/ than here.

  • Please, help me learn J2EE...point me out to better tutorials or something!

    Hi,
    Guys, I really need help in trying to learn what J2EE is.
    I've got prior knowledge and experience on Java (I thought), but ever since I came across the terms J2EE, EJB, JNI, JSP, JDBC and all that crap, I now don't know what I actually learnt!
    Please bear with me I beg of you! :)
    1.0: What I've learnt.
    ===============================
    So far, I've learnt (I think) the core/basics of the Java language, covering uhm...the basics up to GUIs, Arrays, IOStreams...yeah I think that's it.
    I code using notepad and compile them using the SDK...which up to now I still don't know if it is an SE or EE edition. It's j2sdk1.4.0 the last time I checked. I didn't use any IDE.
    I've done (school) projects like a Library System (involves loaning of books and charges etc etc), a Chalet Organizer (Loaning out chalets/rooms and charges etc etc) and an Appointment Organizer.
    So what was that which I learnt? Am I right to say that that is only core Java and nothing else and is next to worthless in the working world?
    2.0: Why I want to learn J2EE.
    ===============================
    Okay so why do I want to learn specifically J2EE? Well, most employment opportunities here require J2EE and EJB (and maybe some other alien terms) as prerequisites to being a "Java Programmer".
    I really need the job as soon as possible (for family's sake) and the job market here is already saturated with webmasters..
    3.0: What I have tried.
    ===============================
    Believe me, I tried for like 2 months already to try learn this thing on my own.
    I have followed almost exactly to the J2EE "Beginner's Tutorial" found on http://java.sun.com/j2ee/tutorial/ but no matter how far I read, I'm still just as clueless as I was when I was in my mother's womb about what J2EE is all about, even though I did the examples. I stopped somewhere in the middle of "Getting Started" because I realized I wasn't learning anything at all.
    4.0: Help meeeeeee...
    ===============================
    4.1:
    Can anyone please help me set my head straight and either point me to a REAL beginner's tutorial on J2EE and what the heck it is, or help explain to me slowly what J2EE really is and how to learn it?
    4.2:
    What's the difference between J2EE and J2SE?!? I initially thought that J2SE was simply just a smaller download which didn't include some of the heavier stuff that the EE carried, but boy was I wrong when that same tutorial asked me to install BOTH of them!
    4.3:
    Is it right for me to think that EJB are just files which are precoded to facilitate programming? e.g.:(I could've written up my own Date class instead of using the standard Date class that everybody uses.)
    4.4:
    What the hell is Jakarta Ant? Is it a builder and not a compiler, and may allow me to run built programs just by double-clicking on an e.g. executable? Like C++? So that I don't have to go to command prompt and type "java myApp.class"? (OT, but I think it's ridiculous that Apache has this and not Sun!!)
    4.5:
    Is there a simpler, much much much simpler example of a J2EE tutorial besides the overly vague tutorial "The Duke's Bank Application"? I need more examples of smaller scale maaaan... Better yet, is there a tutorial around that covers the very very very basics of Java all the way up to J2EE, step by step and with ample explanations?
    =========================
    Thanks all, I would really really appreciate any heads up you can provide me with.
    Sincerely, Kai.

    Lee and tsith - same fella -
    Run Tomcat as a standalone critter - the install of the current ver (4.1.12?) on a Windows machine sets it up nicely, and you don't have to worry about web connectors and stuff. Just create a few JSPs and dump them somewhere under the ROOT directory of your webapps directory and you should be able to hit them via a URL like http://localhost:8080/test.jsp (assuming you have it running on port 8080). Once you get your fill of the JSP thing, make a serrvlet and look into creating WAR files - then copy your WAR file into webapps subdirectory of your Tomcat installation and play with that. When you've had enough Servlet fun, then look into JBoss and making EAR files and you'll have all sorts of fun with JNDI and JDBC and all those other acronyms.
    Ant is just a build tool, not a compiler. Compiling simple java classes is no big deal, 'cause you just type javac MyClass.java or some such. But when you get into complicated build processes (like, compile these classes, making sure to include the J2EE jar and all the other jars I need, and create a WAR file, and deploy it to Tomcat) then Ant really helps.
    If you want help documenting your classes, the javadoc tool is for you.

  • A Tale of Woe and a Lesson to be Learned

    A Tale of Woe
    Well, it happened to me last night. I went to open the iPhoto 5 library dedicated to my latest book project and voilà, I had the dreaded gray thumbnails and the SWOD white, blank Edit window that comes up after double-clicking on one of those gray puppies. An I experienced exactly what many of you have felt, an tremendous sinking in the pit of my stomach.
    So after the invectives were over I went about trying to determine what exactly had happened to corrupt the database file in that library. After pondering my previous iPhoto usage yesterday I determined that the damage must have occurred when I went to launch iPhoto 4 to check out a problem posted by a user in the Discussions forum. Since that book library was the last V5 library to be opened, it was the library of record in the preference file. Since both V4 and V5 use the same preference file V4 tried to open the book library and gave me the “this library was created by a later version of iPhoto... blah blah blah” message. I quit, launched V4 with the Option key depressed and went on my merry way.
    Later I decided to go back to working on the book, launched iPhoto Buddy, selected the book library and tried to open that library. So here we are, staring at a large number of little gray squares.
    I then briefly tried some of the “wonderful” advice I’ve been shelling out these past months and guess, what? Nada! I’m quickly becoming convinced that once you get the gray boxes that library is pretty much history. I can’t remember a successful recovery. (You can, however, recover for file renaming via the Finder in iPhoto 5 libraries, a different problem).
    Realizing that that library was toast (no reflection on Roxio), I mounted my backup HD and copied the backup copy of the library into my Pictures folder. Since it was updated after the last time I worked on that library I lost no effort and was back in the saddle in no time.
    The Lesson to be Learned
    BACKUP, BACKUP, BACKUP!!!!! I know not everyone can afford a second HD to facilitate frequent and easy backing up of critical files but it’s something all should give serious consideration too. Modest sized (80 G) FireWire hard drives are down where they are not entirely out of reach. Many files can be replaced, memos, letters, applications, etc. but when it comes to family photos and the memories they invoke, there’s no going back. This also applies for other types of photos as well, not just family photos. If your hard drive has enough free space that would allow you to have a second copy of your iPhoto library without reducing the overall free space to where you might have performance problems I strongly suggest you make a copy and put it somewhere else in your User folder, maybe Documents and then use a backup application, as many of you know I like Synk, to backup your library after each use. In the backup mode this would take under 30 seconds as you’re only copying/adding changed and new files. The next best thing is to backup to CD/DVDs. Slower but just as safe.
    Sorry to have rambled in this Sunday morning sermon but after experiencing firsthand last night what many of you have been posting about I felt compelled to so some preaching (or rather some strong urging).
    Hope this has been of some help. Good luck.
    OT

    I was at first stunned and heartbroken reading of Old Toad's loss.
    Then of course relieved to know he had of course practiced what he preaches -- have an accessible backup in the right format to get back in business.
    "Backup" and "Don't Tamper" (with the iPhoto Library Folder) are two essential guidelines to enjoying a trouble free iLife.
    The third essential guideline is to be very careful in the wanton downloading and use of third party applications that work with the delicate if not ornery iPhoto librarian.
    Old Toad would never blunder in a pure Apple/OSX/ iPhoto setup.
    But he was having fun with his buddy iPhoto Buddy and his latest flirtation - the sexy little download PreferenceSetter.
    IPhoto sat back - furious and jealous - just waiting for Old Toad to make one tiny little misstep. Either he did or his third party friends did. Photo management has no fury like iPhoto scorned.
    For the resourceful Anicent and Venerable Amphibian it was nothing but a momentary bump in the road. For others it could have been ugly.
    Just remember this: If you are going to hang around Version Tracker looking to download any cute little easy (free) app that catches your eye, remember that iPhoto is watching and waiting. She is always watching and waiting for one tiny little misstep, . . .
