Extract Cluster Information with VI Reference

I have a vi with a cluster control on it. Is there anyway to open a vi reference to this vi and extract the names and corresponding values of the controls within the cluster. I am using LV 6.1. Thanks.

You will need to know the structure of the cluster in advance if you want to do anything useful with it.
Here are 2 methods of getting the data.

What is the best way to for a plugin to wrap a video element in a parallel composition with a reference plugin that points to that Video Element?

I have a basic reference element loaded as a plugin, which is able to retrieve information about, pause and play video elements while displaying its own overlay content as well. What it's not currently doing, is automatically positioning itself to the same location and dimensions of the video element that it references. For some reason, when I try using the layout API to set position and size in the video element metadata, this is not retrieved by the reference element (it returns a null value for the target video element's metadata).
I wanted to try a different approach, specifically, creating a parallel composition that works as follows:
1) When a video element is created in the factory, it is automatically wrapped in a parallel composition element along with a reference element, which is passed the video element as a target.
2) The reference element sets its width and height with the width and height properties of the video element spatial trait and will listen for any changes to that width and height to adjust accordingly.
3) Now that I think about it, the parallel composition should itself be a proxy for the video element, so other code in the player that moves, resizes, or otherwise alters the dispay of the video element, will if fact be adjusting the whole video element + reference element parallel composition.
In other words, I want the reference element to be an overlay that is "locked" to the surface of any video element and follows it in size, position, display and even audio traits.
Suggestions for the best way to approach this within the framework?

Thanks Wei,
With some more tweaking, I am able to get and use the layout metadata as you said! Here is where my issue stands now:
* My IMediaReferrer element can now look at the layout metadata of the target media element and copy those values, so it has the same width, height, x, and y properties. This is great!
* However, particularly for RelativeLayoutFacet metadata, this is only fully useful if both the target media element and my IMediaReferrer element are in the same composition. If they are in different compositions which are themselves placed differently, then even identical x and y values don't add up to the same position on the screen.
So, my challenge is to figure out how to ensure that my IMediaReferrer element is placed in the same composition as the target media element.
Again, the goal is to write a plugin that will have a reference to an underlying video, and will always have the same width, height, x, and y of the video it is overlaying. This plugin should not require any additional coding in the player, but should take care of setting itself up as above automatically when loaded.
There isn't any property on a media element which exposes the "parent" composition element that it is a part of, so I don't know how to get my IMediaReferrer to add itself to the same composition as the reference target automatically. I'm not sure if it's possible to make my IMediaReferrer element extend ParallelElement and still load in a SWF Element as an overlay, and add that SWF Element and the target Media Element as children with identical layout metadata.
Do you have any suggestions on how I should proceed?
Thanks again!

Does BOXI support crystal reports with parameter references in formulas?

I am designing a report in Crystal Reports XI Developer that contains parameters, which are passed to a stored procedure and are also used within formulas ( in Crystal Syntax ie. {?FORMAT_ID} ) in the report itself.
I can run the report successfully in CRXI Developer. The formulas use the correct values from the parameters entered during execution and everything looks good.
I then deploy the report to Business Objects Enterprise XI. I do all of the things necessary to manage the report including setting up the proper database connection information and default parameter values.
When I run the report using the Crystal Report Viewer, I get the following error message:
Error in File Forecasting.rpt:
Error in formula <Report Format>.
'if (not isNull({?FORMAT_ID} ) ) then
This field name is not known.
Details: errorKind
This happens when I press the "Preview" button in the Manage Object dialog from Crystal or when I run the report using InfoView.
I have changed the formulas and it doesn't seem to matter what the specific content of the formula is; other than the existence of a parameter reference in the formula. If I comment out the parameter and replace it with a hard-coded value, it gets through the formula fine.
Does Business Objects Enterprise XI support crystal reports with parameter references in the formulas?
Thanks,
Tim H.

Hi,
In Crystal Reports under File -> Report Options >check convert Null Values to default > Verify on first refresh > Verify stored procedures on first refresh.
This corrected the issue by allowing the query engine time to locate those columns and map them to the query being sent by the report.
The convert null values was added because those field were being used in the record selection and grouping.

Extracting pointer information and displaying it as an image

Hey,
I am using Intel's OpenCV image processing library in LabVIEW.
There's a pointer to a struct IplImage that is passed around in order to run image processing functions.
The struct IplImage is defined as:
typedef struct _IplImage
int nSize; /* sizeof(IplImage) */
int ID; /* version (=0)*/
int nChannels; /* Most of OpenCV functions support 1,2,3 or 4 channels */
int alphaChannel; /* ignored by OpenCV */
int depth; /* pixel depth in bits: IPL_DEPTH_8U, IPL_DEPTH_8S, IPL_DEPTH_16U,
IPL_DEPTH_16S, IPL_DEPTH_32S, IPL_DEPTH_32F and IPL_DEPTH_64F are supported */
char colorModel[4]; /* ignored by OpenCV */
char channelSeq[4]; /* ditto */
int dataOrder; /* 0 - interleaved color channels, 1 - separate color channels.
cvCreateImage can only create interleaved images */
int origin; /* 0 - top-left origin,
1 - bottom-left origin (Windows bitmaps style) */
int align; /* Alignment of image rows (4 or 8).
OpenCV ignores it and uses widthStep instead */
int width; /* image width in pixels */
int height; /* image height in pixels */
struct _IplROI *roi;/* image ROI. when it is not NULL, this specifies image region to process */
struct _IplImage *maskROI; /* must be NULL in OpenCV */
void *imageId; /* ditto */
struct _IplTileInfo *tileInfo; /* ditto */
int imageSize; /* image data size in bytes
(=image->height*image->widthStep
in case of interleaved data)*/
char *imageData; /* pointer to aligned image data */
int widthStep; /* size of aligned image row in bytes */
int BorderMode[4]; /* border completion mode, ignored by OpenCV */
int BorderConst[4]; /* ditto */
char *imageDataOrigin; /* pointer to a very origin of image data
(not necessarily aligned) -
it is needed for correct image deallocation */
IplImage;
I am having problems with closing OpenCV's GUI window when called from LabVIEW in Linux. A solution to this may be to not use OpenCV's GUI window in LabVIEW for Linux, but rather pass back the pointer to the processed image in LabVIEW. From that pointer, we can send it to a C wrapper to extract some information that we want from the struct in order and pass back those values to LabVIEW. Then LabVIEW will process those values and display the image. What will I need to extract from the pointer (via a C wrapper) in order to display the image onto LabVIEW?
I attached a LabVIEW example that I found. This example loads and displays an image. I am thinking of doing something similar to that. Instead of loading an image from the file dialog, I will pass all of the necessary information to Draw Flattened Pixmap.

My description of my problems with interfacing OpenCV with LabVIEW is contained in this discussion
Basically, the code works in C in Linux, C in Windows, LabVIEW for Windows, but not in LabVIEW for Linux.
We finally were able to get OpenCV to interface with LabVIEW for Linux by doing some complex edition to make install. However, LabVIEW was still having trouble with the function to close all HighGUI windows. Even though it went through the function, it will not close the HighGUI window. Also the HighGUI window freezes and when it eventually closes, it crashes LabVIEW.
When I test it by writing C programs, the function does what it is supposed to do.

"Symbol extraction process failed" with iPhone 3G

In the Organizer, when I try to use an iPhone 3G for testing, I get the error message "Symbol extraction process failed", with no further information on what I can do to fix this.
I've tried...
   - Restarting XCode (I'm using XCode 4)
   - Restarting device
   - Resetting device (from itunes)
   - Restoring device (from itunes)
- Upgrading firmware (was 4.0, upgraded to 4.2.1)
- Restoring device (from organizer)
This device isn't broken or functioning incorrectly in any (other) way, and I really need to test my app on a 3G.... How can I fix this?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the quick responses, KT.
I haven't tried it with XCode3; downloading it now. I have an iPhone 4 with the same iOS version installed.
I'd like to use the 3G to test overall performance / framerates / screen resolution.

How to use NI CAN feature for extracting DBC information without a CAN Interface?

Hi,
I'm looking for some tricks in order to extract DBC Information using the NI CAN without a CAN interface...
Basically I have some DBC files and I would to analyze them to get hierarchy Messages and Channels (and their related information, offset, scale, etc.).
http://www.ni.com/white-paper/4294/en/
The function CAN Get Names is usefull and allow me depending on the mode to get a list of the Channels and Messages described in the DBC file. However, I'm encountering one major issue and none of the least, I cannot use the function the CAN Get Property... As it required a connector based on Task that I cannot provide since I dont have any real and physical CAN interface, for now. Therefore I cannot have any information about the channels neither about the messages...
Does anybody can give me a hand to fix that matter?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It seems that no matter the virtual port I am using, it does not work. Could you have a look at my sample.vi, I know it's poorly wired, especially since I'm more in .NET things than NI from my occupation ^^'. I also provided a dummy DBC file to simulate a very basic input.
And by the way is there any way then to get the Byte Array / Bit Array corresponding to a certain message (and how to set the signal values required to get the message)?
Your code isn't that bad, relativly easy to follow. In any case the problem had nothing to do with the CAN port being used. If you would probe the error wires around you would see that coming out of the CAN Init Start stated that the channel name didn't exist. Looking at how you had it wired you took the messages (or frames) and put them into the channels terminal, when I assume you wanted the channels. Then looking at your tree you were again trying to get the ID of a channel, but giving it the message name. I also added reading the Start Bit, Number of Bits, and Byte Order for all the channels read.
If you were to do this with XNET there would be completelly different functions, but the same operations can be done.

Issue listeneing queue from Weblogic Cluster server with multiple managed server

Haveing issue listeneing queue from Weblogic Cluster server with multiple managed server.
Weblogic Cluster structure is like
Weblogic Cluster01
--ManagedServer01(http://server01.myhost.com:7001)
--ManagedServer02(http://server02.myhost.com:7001)
JMS Servers
JMSserver01 targeting: ManagedServer01
JMSserver02 targeting: ManagedServer02
JMSmodule
ConnectionFactory01 targeting:JMSserver01,JMSserver02
UDQueue01 targeting:JMSserver01,JMSserver02
Uniform Distributed Queue in Monitoring tab showing like this
mysystemmodule!JMSserver01@UDQueue01
mysystemmodule!JMSserver02@UDQueue01
So when I am sending message to any Host(by specifying the provider URL) its distributing equally on both server like
mysystemmodule!JMSserver01@UDQueue01 10
mysystemmodule!JMSserver02@UDQueue01 10
But when try to listen message from these queue, it is listening from one server, for which URL given to connect.
mysystemmodule!JMSserver01@UDQueue01 0
mysystemmodule!JMSserver02@UDQueue01 10
untill I connect to other server by giveing its URL, will not able to access other message left on the queue.
Solutions that tried
1) we have tried give both server URL coma sparated in provider URL
we need to configur same scenario for 5 managed server with 3 listener on other servers.
Do any one have solution for this.

You need to have:
1. Consumers connected to each UDQ member
OR
2. If no consumers in some of the members is expected, you can configure Forward Delay (specify the amount of time, in seconds, that a queue member with messages, but with no consumers, will wait before forwarding its messages to other queue members that do have consumers):
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E12839_01/apirefs.1111/e13952/taskhelp/jms_modules/distributed_queues/ConfigureUDQGeneral.html
For example you can set it to 10 (10s)

Crete group with WM reference

Hi,
when I post GI via outbound delivery, the following error occurred:
"Delivery has not yet been completely processed by WM"
But I have finished the following steps:
1. VL06P, create picking via outounb delivery monitor, sequence function --> create group with WM reference
2. LT0S: create transfer order for multiple outbound deliveries
3. LT12, confirm transfer order.
but the picking status was not updated to the outbound delivery, why?
Kindly please advise.
Thanks!

Hi Csaba,
Thanks for your reply.
The transfer order has been confirmed successfully, and I could see corresponding information in the document flow of outbound deliveries.
My current thought is, create a single transfer order for multiple outbound deliveries, and confirm this single transfer order, then post GI in each outbound delivery individually, but the problem is, transfer order has been confirmed but the status was not updated to the picking status in the outbound deliveries.
Kindly please advise again.
Thanks.

Scripts export information about cross references

Hi,
Thank you for the suggestion, but our company is world-wide and each subsidiary deals with different staff and editors (who only some use Adobe software, but all use Office). I will pass along the info though.

Extract cluster element names and values automatically

Dear Labview forum,
I would like to extract cluster element names and values automatically
without prior knowledge of the cluster element size or contents.
I am able to extract the names but have some trouble with the values. (see attached VI)
I wish to write each the cluster element name and value in a string, and then write the string to a new line in a file.

This can become arbitrarily complex, because a cluster can contain many types of data, even other clusters, arrays, typedefs, etc. So getting a "value" of an element is not as easy as you might think. There is a reason you get a variant.
If all cluster elements are simple numerics you can use "variant to data" with the correct type. The attached shows a few possibilities. Modify as needed.

FPBW: Extract Open Items with a posting date in the future

Dear all,
I'm are currently searching for possibilities to extract Open Items with a posting date in the future from SAP IS-U 4.72 into SAP BW 3.5.
Currently I'm using the Business Content extractor 0FC_OP_01 together with the mass transaction FPBW in IS-U.
The problem I'm facing is within the mass transaction FPBW. I've have set the key date at 01.11.2007, but this job already runs for 52.000 seconds on the same database select-statement.

Hi Marcos,
When you have created the Restricted keyfigures for Open Items, You have to add the date characteristic on which you are looking open item and add the variable there.Here you have to use a variable of type Interval and select the operator "<" the date of the Variable.If you go through, there are standard variable for keydate, which you can use directly.
Hope you got the idea

How can I share my schedule information with my wife on her accounts and devices?

My wife and I have separate accounts in our MacMini and MacBook. We each have an iPhone. She uses GMail. I use Mac Mail. How can I share my schedule information with my wife on her accounts and devices?

It is not advisable to follow the above suggested method. The following will do what you want without complications.
1. On your Mac, go to http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a9479 and follow the instructions to share a calendar privately. If you have more than one calendar you want to share you will have to do each individually. You can choose whether she is able to edit it or whether it should be read-only.
2. If your wife does not have an iCloud account she will need to obtain one. When you share a calendar and nominate her to access it she will receive and email. All she has to do is to open the email and click 'Join Calendar'. This will add the calendar to her Calendar app on all devices and on icloud.com without affecting any other data. Again, this will have to be done individually if more than one calendar is involved.

Error while creating the sales order with billing reference

hi alll
i am getting error while creating the sales order with billing reference.The line items are coming in grey.I am not able to change the items as well as the quantity field.Can u guide me
cheers
shalsa007........

Dear SAP SD 007
I can confidently tell that an enhancement or an user exit has been applied in your scenario
You have to check that
Normally when creating a sales order with respect or referring billing documents the qty will be in editable mode and it is standard problem
Your people has solved the standard problem by enhancement
Usually OR--LF-PGI----F2 (SAY THE QTY IS 25 UNITS)
Now you are creating returns order with reference to F2 in the return order type Re there is a standard issue that user can edit the qty to 30 from the original 25
To solve this only your people have used userexit
Line items and qty greyed out means definately there is some enhancement or user exit applied
You have to check that

Credit note with invoice reference are not concatenate in F110

When I create a credit note with invoice reference by VA01, the fields payment term, Baseline date for due date calculation, Assignment and Payment method are copied correctly from invoice to credit note, but in FI document the field invoice ref. 'BSEG-REBZG' is not filled. So when I run the transaction F110 Automathic Payment (for Italy) the invoice is rigthly payed but the credit not is included into Exceptions with the note 'No pymt possible because items with a credit bal.still exist'. If I put in the field 'BSEG-REBZG' the reference to the invoice, the one and credit note are concatenated and I have a rigth parzial payment.
There is a way to have this link when I post the Fi document by vf01-vf02 without putting it manually using FB03?
Thank you in advance
Gianluca.

Credit Memo with the reference of multiple Billing document

Hi SD Gurus,
I wanted to create credit memo with the reference of multiple billing document for a single customer.
Is it possible in standard SAP? If YES please tell me HOW
Thanks in advance...
Ratish Patil

hello, friend.
yes, you actually can. first you enter VA01 and choose the document type. press ENTER.
then in the order Overview screen, go to SALES DOCUMENT > CREATE WITH REFERENCE. a dialog box will ask you which billing document you want as reference. enter the document number and press COPY.
you can repeat this process as many time as you wish. the items of the referenced documents will be copied into your Sales Document.
hope this helped. reward if useful.
