Extraction tar.gz archives without leaving a .tar archive behind

Hello!
When I double-click on a .tar-gz-archive in the Finder, It extracts two things: a tar-archive and the actual content of the file. In 99% of the cases I don't want an additional tar file eating my disk space - is there any way to tell "BomArchiveHelper" (the Program that extracts archives) not to store tar archives?

Good to know... is there a Linux native format for backups that does incorporate fault tolerance much like the rar format allows for parity or recovery records?

Move Type without leaving residual type image behind

In InDesign, like Freehand, I can select a block of type and
hold the cursor still for a second, then move the text and see it
while it is moving for better placement visually. The problem is,
in Freehand, it leaves the original image of the type also in place
where it was before I started moving it. Is this a feature that can
be turned on and off, or, is there a way to not leave the residual
image behind when moving a text block?
TIA,
Ken

By the way, after I complete the move, after releasing the
cursor, the original block of type disappears, as it should because
the type block is now moved. I just would like it to never remain
in the first place.

Extracting tar.bz2 files.

How can i extract tar.bz2 files?. zip, jar, tar can be extracted within java. But how tar.bz2?.

Some tars have built-in knowledge of the bz2 (bunzip) compression format.
Tar ("tape archive") is to package several files in one archive or to extract them. The archive files can be called "*.tar".

Extracting .tar files

I have the com.ice.tar package from http://www.trustice.com/java/tar/ and I have the code shown below compiling just fine. However, I need to extract .tar files and this code will only extract tar.gz files. Does anyone know what I need to change to my code to get it to extract .tar files? Thanks,
import com.ice.tar.*;
import javax.activation.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.zip.GZIPInputStream;
public class untarFiles
public static void main(String args[]) {
try {
untar("c:/Files/AnyFile.tar.gz",new File("c:/Files/"));
catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
System.out.println(e.getMessage());
private static void untar(String tarFileName, File dest) throws IOException {
//assuming the file you pass in is not a dir
dest.mkdir();
//create tar input stream from a .tar.gz file
TarInputStream tin = new TarInputStream( new GZIPInputStream
( new FileInputStream(new File(tarFileName))));
//get the first entry in the archive
TarEntry tarEntry = tin.getNextEntry();
while (tarEntry != null){//create a file with the same name as the tarEntry
File destPath = new File(dest.toString() + File.separatorChar + tarEntry.getName());
if(tarEntry.isDirectory()){
destPath.mkdir();
} else {
FileOutputStream fout = new FileOutputStream(destPath);
tin.copyEntryContents(fout);
fout.close();
tarEntry = tin.getNextEntry();
tin.close();

How do I get routing data from the Map App (powered by TomTom) so I can display the point-to-point annotations (turn-by-turn navigation) without leaving my own application.

I have a tableView displaying a list of contacts from a Cloud Database. After selecting a contact, I push to a programmatically created MKMapView. Then I display the initial region (the view) that includes the users current location (starting point) and their selected destination (end point).
Now I want to display annotations (as described in the Location Awareness Programming Guide) that displays polylines which will represent the turn-by-turn navigation IN MY OWN APPLICATION, and not in the Map App currently used in IOS6.
Due to licensing and its becoming depricated in IOS 6, I do not want to get routing data from the Google Maps API. How do I get routing data from the IOS 6 Map App (powered by TomTom) so I can display the point-to-point annotations (turn-by-turn navigation) without leaving my own application?
I checked out Stack Overflow and other forums which basically left me with the impression that this is not possible. I also checked out the TomTom iPhone Mobile SDK User Guide from the TomTom Developer Portal and am still confused. It must be possible to retrieve routes, since the Map App can display turn-by-turn directions. How can I retrieve turn-by-turn data that I may display as a route within my own application?

Thanks Michael. Apologies for the slow reply I was away for a bit (holiday blitz at work and visiting family madness etc.etc.) back now, I set both options you requested to "never " and retried the CMS software with no change.
I do have progress of a sort though, as a test I took a separate test PC and put a clean install of Win7 on and loaded up the CMS software (it worked perfectly) and then took the version of ole32.dll off that machine and put it onto the computer I had built
for her (using Linux) and...
got a new error code. Darn I was so sure I had found a clever solution this time lol.
Anyway now when the CMS fails it gives me a similar error but the offending module is "ntdll.dll" sooo... I tried taking the "working" version of ntdll.dll from the test box and moving it over (making sure to back up the existing ones
first so I could put them back if needed) to her new PC and the PC would not boot.
It seems to want the original versions of a few Dynamic Link Libraries and if I could somehow give it those while not breaking Win7 it should theoretically work seeing as it no longer errors with ole32.dll.
ntdll.dll however seems necessary for Win7 to boot.
So what I am wondering now is:
Is there some way to have both versions of the DLL file in the system32 folder (bypassing the "cannot have two files with the exact same name in the same folder" thing) or rename the original DLL's something else and somehow make the CMS look for
the new named versions so the system has the updated DLL's it needs to boot/run and the CMS has the old ones it wants to run or is there someway to have a self contained install of the CMS, say on a USB flash drive and give it it's own E:/windows/system32/needed
dll's path to the files it needs?
Willing to try any other options or settings you may have come up with as well.
Thanks again for your reply and my apologies for not answering sooner.

How can I link an image without leaving the existing window in adobe acrobat??

Hi everybody
I'm new using adobe acrobat, but I saw (once) that in a manual, they linked a image.
Just by passing the mouse over the linked word, the image appears "over" the pdf, without leaving the existing window
Is this still possible?? and How??
Thanks for your help

If you need to do it very often, I've developed a web-service that allows
you to enter a phrase (let's say "Product 1"), and have an image "pop-up"
whenever the user hovers or clicks that phrase in your document. Contact me
personally for more information.

IBooks Author: Open store links without leaving app?

I am trying to link from within a book (created in iBooks Author) without leaving the iBooks app.
I can add the iTunes link, but it opens the iTunes app.
I want it to stay within the iBooks app.
There are other ebooks, including ones created in iBooks Author, that load the mini iTunes store pop-up panel when, and stay within the book that it open. Like in the Led Zeppelin Sound and Fury ibook.
Help would be much appreciated!
Thanks!

If are sure your machine is within the conditions set by Apple, have you tried opening the Applications folder
A- to see if the app is actually installed and B- clicking the iBA app to open it?
If the iBA app is showing in your app folder and does not open, I would suggest contact support for either Mac or iBA or both for advice.

Best way to extract data from archived cube

Hello Experts,
Can anyone tell me best way to extract data from archived cube.
Basically I am trying to pull all the data from archived cube and then load it into another brand new infoprovider which is in different box.
Also I need to extract all the master data for all infoobjects.
I have two options in my mind:
1) Use open hub destination
or
2) Infoprovider>display data>select the fields and download the data.
Is it really possible to extract data using option (2) if records are too high and then load it into another infoprovider in new system.
Please suggest me the pros and cons for the two options.
Thanks for your time in advance.

Hello Reddy,
Thanks a lot for your quick reply.
Actually in my case I am trying to extract archived infocube data and then load it into new infoprovider which is in different system. If I have connectivity I can simply export data source from archived infocube and then reload into new infoprovider.
But there is no connectivity between those two systems (where archived cube is and new infoprovider) and so I am left with the two options I mentioned.
1) Use Open Hub
or
2) Extract data manually from infoprovider into excel.
Can anyone let me know which of the two options is the best and also I doubt on how to use excel in extracting data as excel have limit of no.of records 65536
Thanks

Insert .oam files that scale without leaving white space below them inside a web page

Hi All,
Does anyone have a way to get .oam files to scale inside a web page without leaving all the white space below them when they are scaled in a fluid web page design?
I've done this in other web pages without using .oam files and inserting the whole html file and stage, but I need this to work with multiple areas inside a web page for which .oam files seem to be the only solution.
Thanks for your time, any solutions or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeff

Hi Meenakshi,
Thanks for your reply, the blog tutorial you're referencing however uses the HTML files and doesn't use .oam files, which is my problem, as I need to insert more than one edge element on the page.
Alternatively if there is a way to insert two "stage" HTML edge elements into a page using the method referenced above, this would be a suitable solution also. I've tried inserting more than one HTML file / stage where they are of different stage sizes and had no luck creating a second "stage_02" etc to acheive this so far.
Thanks again for your reply,
Cheers,
Jeff

When loading video or tv shows it is taking as long as 14 hours plus - if I leave the loading screen it doesn't continue to load? So you have to wait without leaving the screen for 14 hours?

When loading video or tv shows it is taking as long as 14 hours plus - if I leave the loading screen it doesn't continue to load? So you have to wait without leaving the screen for 14 hours? Unfortunately - I've been reading that this lengthy download problem is quite common - although I thought I saw where someone had loaded videos the day before and then had them to watch later. So, my first rental - I downloaded it overnight - then we go to watch it tonight and it proceeds to start loading again...saying it will be ready in 14 hours and 21 minutes!!! Am I doing something wrong here? If anyone has advice - I would greatly appreciate it. This is the first apple product that I am disappointed with

No. You cannot be taken seriously.

How to extract TEXT for archived Purchase Orders ?

Hi Friends,
Can any one tell me how to extract TEXT for archived Purchase Orders ?
I have used READ_TEXT but that is not fetching texts for archived PO's. Whenever I am trying to fetch data from STXH against archived PO, no value is coming and resulting SY_SUBRC <> 0.
Any demo code will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance..
Sivaji

Hi,
You can see that table STXH is linked to archiving object MM_EKKO (you can see it in tcode DB15).
My suggest is that you must get the data. See the demo object BC_SBOOK in tcode AOBJ. You can see the report to reload data. The object is get the data in an internal table. So for report SBOOKR you can see this function module:
*   get data records from the data container
*   SBOOK
    CALL FUNCTION 'ARCHIVE_GET_TABLE'
      EXPORTING
        archive_handle        = lv_handle
        record_structure      = 'SBOOK'
        all_records_of_object = 'X'
      TABLES
        table                 = lt_sbook_tmp
      EXCEPTIONS
        end_of_object         = 0.         "not entries of this type
*   check lt_sbook_tmp entries against selections. Delete not
*   requested entries
    LOOP AT lt_sbook_tmp ASSIGNING <ls_sbook>
                         WHERE carrid IN s_carrid
                           AND connid IN s_connid
                           AND fldate IN s_fldate.
      APPEND <ls_sbook> TO lt_sbook.
    ENDLOOP.
    REFRESH lt_sbook_tmp.
The idea is that you get the same data that you handle in READ_TEXT (because you don't have the data in database) and recovery the text.
I hope this helps you
