Everything you wanted to know about books... and then some.

Hi, all:
With all the questions and speculation about how books are printed, what color profile to use, etc. I contacted Apple and asked for information that I could pass on. Here's the reply I received from Apple:
Thank you for contacting the Apple Print Products Customer Service.
I understand that you would like to know the printing process that is used and the color mode the files should be in, so you can better advise users in the iPhoto forum.
iPhoto version 4 or later, allows you to import and print files through the Apple Print Product service as RGB, grayscale, or CMYK color space. JPEG files with RGB color space are recommended for best results.
While iPhoto 2 can import files of various formats, including RGB color, grayscale, and CMYK, this version requires JPEG files with RGB color space when printing photos and books.
For more information regarding iPhoto 2, please visit the following article:
iPhoto: Color, Black and White Prints Appear Garbled or Distorted
For more information regarding iPhoto 5, please visit the following article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=165501
Here are some of the technical specifications for the books, cards, and calendars. I hope this gives you an idea about their quality and form.
BOOKS
All iPhoto books are printed using acid-free paper for long-lasting image quality. The photos are printed at a high resolution (300DPI if you use iPhoto 6). There is no external modification--such as sharpening or contrast adjustment--of the photos; what you see in the application is what is printed in the book.
Hardcovers Books
The cover is hard-bound and covered in linen. You select the linen color during the book-ordering process. The hardcover books have a solid, stiff binding that is glued and crimped. The internal pages, measuring 8.5 x 11 inches, are printed on McCoy 100# Text Gloss paper stock.
Softcover Books
The softcover books come in three sizes:
- Large 8.5 x 11 inches
- Medium 6 x 8 inches
- Small 2.6 x 3.5 inches
All of the softcover books have internal pages that are printed on McCoy 100# Text Gloss paper stock. The large softcover book has a white cover (Kromekoteplus Folding Cover, 16 point) with a cutout on the front that reveals the cover-page photo in the book. The covers for the medium and small softcover books have the cover image and title printed directly on the cover. All of the softcover books have a glued binding and feature a thick cover of McCoy 100# Cover Gloss paper stock.
CARDS
All cards are printed on McCoy 120# Silk Cover paper stock. The postcards measure 4 x 6 inches, and the greeting cards measure 5 x 7inches.
CALENDARS
All calendars measure 8 x 10 inches and are printed on McCoy 100# Silk Cover paper stock.
To ensure the best print quality, we have chosen to use Kodak NexPress technology. The press uses a dry toner, which is fused to the surface of the paper. Please see NexPress' site for more information:
KODAK NEXPRESS 2500 Digital Production Color Press
I hope you find this information helpful in answering questions on the iPhoto forum. If you have any other questions, please reply to this email and we will help you further.
Hope this will answer some of your questions more clearly.

Thanks, Toad. That was very informative. I don't really know anything about McCoy 100# Text Gloss paper stock, but I seem to have a small problem with it (or maybe the gloss/varnish on top, if there is any). I imagine I'm not the only one. My hardcover photo books have always come out beautiful. At home in Southern California, I can leave them on the coffee table without a problem usually. However, if I travel to humid areas of the East Coast with a book, or if it rains for several days here, the book paper will start to develop a wavy, wide corrugation around the edges that is very obvious when the book is viewed in profile. This does not seem to completely go away when the humidity goes back down. Other, "store bought" books around the house don't seem to do this. Have you seem or heard of this before? Thanks.

Syncing iPad iPhone iMac with Google Calendar, everything you want to know

Ok Guys, I just spent the last 4 hours going nuts with experimentations, trials and errors, and I finally think I figured it out, so bear with me here because it's not that simple. And excuse me for the poor english, I'm from Brazil.
Ok, in the iMac you're gonna set up a CalDAV account with your google login/password. It will work flawlessly and you won't have any problems, it will always update the google calendar and be updated by it. Just remember to use CMD+R to refresh it whenever you want, so you don't have to wait the 15 minutes or whatever you set in preferences.
Now let's talk iPad and iPhone. First of all, you have 2 options to sync calendars with Google, you can use protocol CalDAV or protocol Exchange.
Google's setup instructions for CalDAV (both iPhone and iPad) is here: http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=151674
The instructions for both iPhone and iPad for Exchange is here:
http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138740
(just be sure to select calendar only, cause I'm assuming you're using IMAP or other protocol for mail and contacts).
The main difference between CalDAV and Exchange is that Exchange supports push updates, wich is instant, while with CalDAV you have to fetch manually (every time you open the calendar app) or another time setting (like 15 min, one hour, etc).
Well, my experiences revealed that the iPhone and the iPad will sync flawlessly with Google Calendar and the iMac, without any problems, BUT as long as you use Exchange AND Push to update the calendars (CalDAV doesn't support Push, and you need Push so the iPad sync works).
Let me repeat that: IF and ONLY IF you have BOTH Exchange protocol configured and PUSH enabled iPad and iPhone will sync flawlessly. But many people (me included) dont want to use push because a) it has a battery hit b) they don't need instant updates c) it consumes cellular data when you're not on Wifi, and if you don't have an unlimited plan that's not good.
So, if you TURN OFF PUSH with Exchange sync, the iPad will stop syncing properly. Curiously, the iPhone will continue syncing properly.
What I discovered is that, on the iPad, doesn't matter if you use CalDAV or Exchange, the moment you turn OFF push notifications it won't sync manually anymore. And by that I mean that with push off the iPad will not refresh calendar data when you open the calendar app (as it should since push is off and manual fetch is selected).
To sum it up, I discovred that with push OFF in both the iPad and the iPhone (either with Exchange or CalDAV):
- The iPhone will update both google calendar and the iMac;
- The iphone will be updated by both google calendar and the iMac and events created in the iPad;
- The iPad will NOT be updated when you open the calendar app, so it won't see any changes made either on the iPhone, iPad or Google Calendar, but when you create new events in the iPad you will see the data icon spinning so it will send that event to the other 3, but it will not recieve anything.
On macrumors forum people discovered that on the iPad, if you open your calendar, close it, change settings from manually fetch to 15 minutes or whatever, it will sync the next time you open your calendar. But it's unreliable (doesn't work every time), not to mention that you won't want to do that every time you need to sync your calendar !
What about the iPhone ? Well, in my experiences I found out that it doesn't matter if you use Exchange OR CalDAV, it will manually sync with push off every time you open the calendar app. Just a sidenote: the iPhone wasn't manually refreshing with push off as well, just like the iPad, but as soon as I rebooted it started to sync manually every single time and it has been so far. But the iPad didn't sync manually every time even after I rebooted it.
To end it all, how to know if the calendar is manually syncing with Push OFF ? Well, just open the calendar app and after 5 seconds you should see the data spinning logo right next to the 3G or Wifi icon in the status bar. It must happen EVERY time you open the calendar app (you don't even need to force quit the calendar app for it to happen, it must happen every time you hit home and then open the calendar again). If it's not spinning (recieving data) 5 seconds after you opened the calendar app, it's not manually syncing, so on the iPhone you should reboot and on the iPad there's no fix I found so far (besides the unreliable fix of chaning the fetch time like I said before).
Oh, I did all these tests with an iPhone 3GS running iOS4 (don't complain it's not 4.2.1, cause the iPhone IS working, the problem is with the iPad), and an iPad running 4.2.1.
I just hope this thread gets attention because It almost drove me nuts to figure out all these things.
Cheers,
Felipe Raul

An update: I am seeing the CalDAV account sync more frequently than the 15 minute interval I have Fetch set to, sometimes as soon as 5-6 minutes. This is however going in/out of the calendar app multiple times... Every once in a which it will update.
I've found no pattern as to what triggers the sync. It doesn't seem to matter if I go into another app or not, or whether I close out the calendar app from the task menu. It's just totally random.
You might say, "what's wrong with just letting it fetch every 15 minutes as it is schedule to do?" Well, most of the time this would be ok, but there are occasionally moments when a decision must be made and an up-to-the-minute current accurate calendar is required for this to happen.
At this point, I'm going to have to keep my priority/vital calendars syncing via Exchange/push, and use CalDAV/push for the less vital calendars and at least have control over calendar colors with those.
Also, just wanted to mention that all the above testing has been over a stable wifi connection, rather than 3G or Edge, in case it makes a difference. (I don't think it does.)

(solved) T61 swap cpu? (everything you need to know about swapping a T61 or T61p CPU)

Edit: I've summerized everything I've learned in a week long search and added it to this topic, so scroll down and read. You'll save yourself many hours of reading and research.
I asked this as part of a prior topic but never got a definite answer, so I'll ask this specific question.
Can I swap a cpu from one t61 to another?
Donor system: T61 15.4widescreen with T9300 cpu (2.5ghz, 6mb cache)
New System: T61 15.4 widescreen with T8100 cpu (2.1ghz, 3mb cache)
I'd like to know for sure before I begin. Best answer I got so far is "I think so".
ps. I also have a 14" (non-widescreen) t61 with a T7300 cpu (2.0ghz 4mb cache). I'm thinking the larger cache makes this superior to the T8100 even though it's slightly slower, do you agree? and if not, should I put the leftover T8100 in it? will it fit? more trouble then it's worth? (secondary question, but non-urgent)
ThinkPad W-510 i7-820QM(1.73-3.06GHz) Quad Core... ThinkPad T500, T9900, 8gb SSD...FrankNpad T-60p/61p (X9000 2.8ghz) 8gb SSD ips FlexView...ThinkPad T-61p (T9300 2.5ghz) 8gb ram...Thinkpad X-61 Tablet 4gb ram...ThinkPad A-31 (1.9ghz P4 1.5gb ram)
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I'm going to add some additional info to this post to help anyone who reads it.
The T61 / T61p was manufactured with one of two different types of CPUs
Merom (older)
Penryn (newer)
If your system board came with a Merom and you install a Penryn, you'll get a false "thermal error" on boot. There is a 3rd party bios to block that error from posting, but it's unauthorized by Lenovo and should be considered experimental.
If your system board came with a Penryn, you can install either of the two CPUs.
If your not sure of which CPU you have, load your bios and it will show you it's intel number. Mine is T9300 (which is a 2.5GB Penryn CPU with 6MB of cache). Go to Intel's website and search that number and towards the top of the page it will say something like "formerly Penryn" (I believe "formerly" is used because they are out of production).
Example: http://ark.intel.com/products/33917/Intel-Core2-Duo-Processor-T9300-(6M-Cache-2_50-GHz-800-MHz-FSB)
Since Penryn is newer, your Merom boards won't be able to run the faster CPUs, so you can either try to find the fastest Merom CPU, or if you want to be daring you can reflash your bios with an unoffical firmware and run the Penryn. Although this has been done successfully with thinkpad enthousiats world-wide, it still won't give you full Penryn support.
The fastest Merom processor I know of is that a T61 will run is the T7800 It runs at 2.6ghz and has 4MB cache (note that this is slightly faster ten my 2.5gz Penryn, but my 6MB of cache more then makes up for the slight difference in speed.
The fastest Penryn processor I know of is that the T61 will run is the T9500 It runs at 2.6ghz and has 6MB cache (some day I'll get one of these when the price in the used parts market drops low enough.
There are faster processors, but I believe the T61 will not support one with a front size buss rate above 800mhz. *note, if anyone knows if this is possible please contact me and I'll edit this information.
This should fully explain all the technical details I've discovered during my investigation, but to make this topic more complete, I'll hare a photographic guide showing how to remove and replace your CPU and cooling fan, and also addresses replacing your thermal paste (proper use of thermal paste is a MUST, to much and you could end up with a T61 paperweight, to little and you got the same problem. Basically when the heatsink is tightened down onto your CPU and GPU, it should spread to cover all the chip, with as little as possible overspread. I recommend Artic Silver #5, which is made of 99.9% silver filings. They also make a less expensive version that uses alumimum instead of silver, but given that T61 is known for thermal problems, you don't want to get cheap paste to save yourself all of $5.
Buying a new fan should be considered too. You can buy the fan alone for $12 includinng shipping from many ebay sellers. The heatsink and fan can also be purchased as a unit, but your heat sink should last the life of the Laptop. There is also a conductive "pad" that transfers heat from your systemboard chipset. This can be reused, just make sure it is intact and don't allow it to get any dust or finger prints on it. I'd also recommend a can of compressed air to blow out the inside of the laptop. Do this before you remove your cpu, you don't want to be blowing crap into the socket.
Also be very careful not to bend any pins on the CPU, and inspect the new CPU carefully, a slightly bent pin could miss being detected and if you insert the cpu carelessly, you'll crush it.
Online guide to replace CPU
PDF guide (better guide in my opinion)
If anyone has a suggestion for improving this guide, send me a P.M.
If you found this information useful, click me some "kudos" so I'll know the time spent in sharing the info I learned is appriciated.

All You Need to Know About MSAS and Voyager (Hopefully)

Post Author: chemstoc
CA Forum: Olap
There seems to be several problems with trying to connect Voyager to Microsoft Analysis Server Cubes.
We have struggled with this for several weeks and I hope to both get answers and document the steps that are required to make this connection work.
We run MSSQL Server 2005 on an XP machine in the development environment (Cheap!) and have had no issues connecting to the cubes with other software (Notably Targit and Excel, etc.) When we try to attach BOXI Voyager in the Productivity Pack, we cannot get the OLE connection to log in to the server.
We are not sure if it is because it is connecting to an XP machine? Or there isn't sufficient "rights" on the XP machine? Or BOXI requires the "ANONYMOUS" user to be setup in the security tab on the MSSQL Management console?
Any help from any of you that have ACTUALLY gotten this Voyager connection working would be tremendously appreciated.
Cliff

Make sure you have entered your Voyager licence code in CMC.
I'm using BOXI R3. but is same for BOXIR2 Make sure you have defined a voyager connection in the CMC.
in here you need to specify
Server type: Server
Server: your SSAS 2005 server name
then click the Connect and type a user ID with appropriate authority to the cubes.
then select the cube you want.
then specify:
Authentication: User Specified
User: Authorised user
Password:
Click Save.
You then should be able to create a new Vouager workspace from the infoview.
Hope this Helps (ive got about 20 cubes accessed by Vouager... not such a flash viewer but its the only thing BO offer. OLAP intelligence (a good product) is no longer available!

What you wanted to know about Time values

Hello
I tried to gather in a single document the useful infos about the use of time values in Numbers.
I must thanks pw1840 which checked the English syntax.
Here is the text only document.
Files with the sample tables are available on my iDisk:
<http://idisk.me.com/koenigyvan-Public?view=web>
Download:
ForiWork:ForNumbers:Time in Numbers.zip
*STORED DATE-TIME VALUES - BASICS*
Numbers clearly states that it stores date-time values, no less no more. This means these values consist of two parts: a date and a time. It is important to note that both parts are present even if only one of them is displayed.
When we type the time portion only, it includes the current date even though it may not be displayed.
But when we apply the formula: =TIME(0,0,ROUND(TIMEVALUE(B)24*6060,0)), we get a date-time value whose numerical value of the date portion is 0. This means, in AppleLand, 1 janvier 1904. Such a date-time allows us to make correct calculations, but there are two true drawbacks:
1) Since TIMEVALUE() returns a decimal number, when we calculate the corresponding number of seconds we MUST use the ROUND() function. While calculations with decimal numbers give the wanted value, they may not be exact and be off by + or - epsilon. And
2) The structure of Numbers date-time values is such that the time part is always in the range 0:00:00 thru 23:59:59.
There is also a detail which seems annoying to some users. The minimal time unit is the second because time values are in fact a pseudo string representing the number of seconds between the date-time and the base date-time, 1 janvier 1904 00:00:00.
-+-+-+-+-
*TIMEVALUE() FUNCTION*
When Numbers Help states that the TIMEVALUE() function "converts a date, a time, or a text string to a decimal fraction of a 24-hour day.", it means that the operand for the function TIMEVALUE() may be something like:
31/12/1943, 31 décembre 1943, or 31 déc. 1943 described as a date;
1:12:36 or 1:12 described as time; or
31/12/1943 23:59:59 described as a text string.
The date may also be 31/12/43 but here the program must guess the century. According to the rule, this one will be 31/12/2043 (yes, I am very young).
All of this is not exactly what we are accustomed to but it is perfectly logical as described. My guess is that those who don't understand are simply clinging to old habits and are reluctant to adopt an unfamiliar approach .
-+-+-+-+-
*ELAPSED TIME (DURATION)*
Given a table whose 1st row is a header, I will assume that column B stores starting-time values and column C stores ending-time values. Both do not display the date component of the date-time values. We may get the difference in column D with the formula:
=IF(OR(ISBLANK(B),ISBLANK(C)),"",TIMEVALUE(C)-TIMEVALUE(B))
which returns the elapsed time as the decimal part of the day.
We immediately encounter a problem. If ending-time is the day after the starting-day, the result will be negative. So it would be useful to revise the formula this way:
=IF(OR(ISBLANK(B),ISBLANK(C)),"",IF(TIMEVALUE(C)>TIMEVALUE(B),0,1)+TIMEVALUE(C) -TIMEVALUE(B))
But some of us may wish to see results in the traditional format which may be achieved using:
=IF(OR(ISBLANK(B),ISBLANK(C)),"",TIME(0,0,ROUND((IF(TIMEVALUE(C)>TIMEVALUE(B),0 ,1)+TIMEVALUE(C)-TIMEVALUE(B))24*6060,0)))
-+-+-+-+-
*DURATION SUMS > or = 24 HOURS*
In the examples above, we always assumed that the durations where smaller than 24 hours because Numbers states clearly in the Help and the PDF Users Guide that time values are restricted to the range 00:00:0 to 23:59:59. For longer durations we must fool Numbers.
First problem: we are adding several time durations. Each duration is in the authorized range and the result is greater than 24 hours.
As before, starting-time values are in column B, ending-time ones are in column C, and the elapsed time value is in column D. The formula is:
=IF(OR(ISBLANK(B),ISBLANK(C)),"",IF(TIMEVALUE(C)>TIMEVALUE(B),0,1)+TIMEVALUE(C) -TIMEVALUE(B))
in column E, the formula for the cumulative elapsed time value is:
=SUM($D$2:D2)
in column F, converting to time format, the formula is:
=TIME(0,0,ROUND(MOD(E,1)24*6060,0))
in column G, the formula for showing more than 24 hours in the day/hour/minute format is:
=IF(E<1,"",INT(E)&IF(E<2," day "," days "))&F
in column H, expressing total elapsed time in total hours using the traditional time format, the formula is:
=IF(E<1,F,INT(E)*24+LEFT(F,LEN(F)-6)&RIGHT(F,6))
in column I, expressing total elapsed time in total hours using the traditional time format, an alternate formula is:
=IF(E<1,F,INT(E)*24+HOUR(F)&":"&RIGHT("00"&MINUTE(F),2)&":"&RIGHT("00"&SECOND(F ),2))
Of course the user would choose the format used in column G or the one in column I for his table. There is no need to keep all of them. It would be fine to hide column F whose contents are auxiliary.
Second problem: individual durations may be greater than 23:59:59 hours.
Again, column B is used to store starting date-time, column C stores ending date-time, and durations are calculated in column D. Since B and C are storing full date-time values, we may use this simple formula to find the duration:
=C-B
in column E, the time portion of the duration given in time format is:
=TIME(0,0,ROUND(MOD(D,1)24*6060,0))
in column F the formula to show the duration as days/hours/minutes is:
=IF(D<1,"",INT(D)&IF(D<2," day "," day(s "))&E
in column G we give the elapsed time in total hours using a time format. The formula is:
=IF(D<1,E,INT(D)*24+LEFT(E,LEN(E)-6)&RIGHT(E,6))
in column H we give the elapsed time in total hours using a time format. An alternate formula is:
=IF(D<1,E,INT(D)*24+HOUR(E)&":"&RIGHT("00"&MINUTE(E),2)&":"&RIGHT("00"&SECOND(E ),2))
If the duration is greater than 24 hours, the results in columns E and F are not a time value but a string. So the value in column D (which is time duration only) is useful.

*PROBLEM WITH ENTERING TIME*
When you wish to enter 12:34 but 12 is the number of minutes, remember that Numbers will decipher this as 12 hours and 34 minutes. Simple tip:
Assuming that your original entry is in column B, then in column C use this formula to align the minutes and seconds for proper Numbers interpretation:
=IF(ISERROR(TIME(0,LEFT(B,SEARCH(":",B)-1),RIGHT(B,LEN(B)-SEARCH(":",B)))),"",T IME(0,LEFT(B,SEARCH(":",B)-1),RIGHT(B,LEN(B)-SEARCH(":",B))))
-+-+-+-
*MISCELLANEOUS NOTES*
• Of course, the addition of two dates and multiplication or a division applied to one date means nothing and would generate the red triangle announcing a syntax error.
• We may add a time value to a date-time: If B contains a date-time and C contains a time, the following formula will return the sum of the two values:
=B+TIMEVALUE(C)
• We may strip the time value of a full date-time one with the formula: =DATE(YEAR(B),MONTH(B),DAY(B))
• Just as a reminder,
=EDATE(B, 3) adds 3 months to the pure date stored in B
so, of course,
=EDATE(B, 12) adds one year to the pure date stored in B
• If B and C store date-time values,
=C-B returns the difference in decimal days.
=DATEDIF(B,C,"D") returns the number of days between the two pure dates. It's identical to =DATE(YEAR(C),MONTH(C),DAY(C))-DATE(YEAR(B),MONTH(B),DAY(B))
=DATEDIF(B,C,"M") returns the number of months between the two pure dates.
=DATEDIF(B,C,"Y") returns the number of years between the two pure dates.
Three other variants are available which use the parameters "MD","YM" and "YD".
Yvan KOENIG (from FRANCE lundi 25 août 2008 15:23:34)

KOENIG Yvan wrote in his "*STORED DATE-TIME VALUES - BASICS*" section:
The minimal time unit is the second because time values are in fact a pseudo string representing the number of seconds between the date-time and the base date-time, 1 janvier 1904 00:00:00.
This is not exactly true. Numbers files store date-time values in a string format consistent with ISO 8601:2004. This format explicitly includes year, month, day, hour, minute, & second values.
This may be verified by examining the uncompressed index.xml file in a Numbers package. For example, the first day of 1904 is stored as cell-date="1904-01-01T00:00:00+0000" & of the year 0001 as cell-date="0001-01-01T00:00:00+0000." This format is not a numeric value of seconds from a base date-time, often referred to as a "serial time" format, that is used in applications like AppleWorks (or Excel?).
Note that the time value (all that follows the "T" in the string) actually has four components, the last one (following the plus) representing the time zone offset from UTC time in minutes. AFAIK, Numbers does not set this to anything besides "+0000" but interestingly, it will attempt to interpret it if set by manually editing the file. For example, change cell-date="1904-01-01T00:00:00+0000" to cell-date="1904-01-01T00:00:00+0120" & the cell will display the last day of December of 1903 as the date, but will still show the time as 00:00:00. This suggests a future version of Numbers might be time zone aware, but currently it is unreliable & not fully implemented.
Anyway, Numbers does not use the first day of 1904 as a reference for stored date-time values, although it will add that date to "dateless" time values imported from AppleWorks spreadsheets. Although I have not verified this, I believe it will also seamlessly translate between ISO & serial time formats as needed for Excel imports & exports, using the first day of 1900 as needed.
Some other things to note about the ISO standard:
• It permits fractional time values in the smallest time unit present, so for example "T10:15:30" could be represented as "T10:15.5" but Numbers does not support this -- the cell will appear empty if the index file is manually edited this way.
• It does not stipulate whether date-time values represent intervals or durations (although it includes an explicit format for intervals between any two date-time values, known as a period). This means a future version of Numbers could support durations without the addition of a new data storage type, but legacy & import/export issues could make this too impractical to implement.
• It supports a variety of other formats, including date-only, time-only, day-of-year, week-of-year, & various truncations (just hours & minutes, for example). All are unambiguous so a future version of Numbers could support them, but files generated with those versions would not be backwards compatible with the current version.
For completeness, I will add that instead of using complex formulas to manipulate single-cell date-time values in Numbers, it is sometimes more straightforward to use multiple cells, one for each unit of time (for example, days, hours, minutes, & seconds), plus simple arithmetic formulas to combine them. Since each unit is a simple number, this results in highly portable, accurate, & "future-proof" tables, especially for durations. This is particularly useful for multimedia work in which the units might include video or film frames or audio samples.

I want to Know about Vo and Serilization

Hi Friends
I am having one doubt
When we carete a Value objet then we provide a deafault constructor.
Also we use to serilize it.
What is the use of deafult construtor even if we are not intilizing any parameters..

Maybe we should agree on what we mean by "Value
Object" first.
I like Eric Evans' definition: A value object isan
object whose identity doesn't matter, and itsstate
is immutable.
If I write a Person object, and that Person is
persisted in a relational database with a primary
key, that Person object is likely to have aprimary
key as an attribute. That's an identity that my
application needs to track as that object is used.
If I write a Money class, it can be a Value Object
because any instance that represents $10 USD canbe
used by any other object that needs it. The Java
wrapper classes are VOs.
%Thanks for Ur valubable Input.
Is String Class provide any type of design
Pattern?
In an iNterview the interviewr had asked me that u can not initilize a Valueobject.But I know that it is simple java Class with getter and setter method serilaizable Interface Imlepmented.
He said that What is the Point of Initilization when It is Serilized.

Ashok,
Hi! Excellent that you are take the next steps in your education and applying them to work experiences.
The best approach in taking SAP-related courses is to contact the university and confirm their approach. View SAP UA member schools here - http://uaaroundtheworld.informatik.tu-muenchen.de/overview(bD1lbiZjPTEwMQ==)/start.htm
...and assess the ones in the UK which does include Brunel.
Ask if they provide SAP-related curricula (or supplements) and hands on SAP software in this course or others that you can take in your program.
Best regards,
Richard

ESOA mean Enterprise Service Oriented Architecture
SOA mean an Architecture approach to define IT solution for business problems using loose couples SERVICES
Service mean: definition of a business function in terms of the service message, protocol and nature
Nature mean Service direction, Service mode and service contract
WEB SERVICE, XML, XSD, SOAP : Mean a technology following SOA architecture approach to IT enablement of a business need.
WEB service compose business functions, location of services, messages of service offering and protocol into a single definition to define service contract.
XML mean a common language to represent message
XSD mean a common way to define message structure
SOAP mean a procol which carry messages of services between service consumer and service provider.
Finally : Web service is not SOA. Web service is a technology implementing SOA architectural approach to IT enablement of a business NEED.
