From where to start android programming ?

the question pretty much explains it. i have almost completed java programming. i have completed half of java essential classes from oracle java tutorials but what i mean is which ide should i download and from where should i learn it. for java programming i have been using netbeans and i think it also supports android programming. any suggestions would be appreciated.

I would start from here: https://developer.android.com/training/index.html
This is where I started 2-3 years ago, when Eclipse was the preferred (only?) IDE.
I have no idea if they still base the tutorials on Eclipse only, but if it is so, I would not mind learning another IDE for the sake of learning Android programming.
Advice: do not get too deep into Java GUI programming, because Android does not use AWT/Swing. Most of the rest of your Java background will be very useful.

What to check or can say from where to start?

Hi Gurus,
I've a situation, have been given a Dev db, a copy of their current Prod db, kind of a warehouse, not core and now my task is to check this db from all perspective and tell the application what is right or even wrong too.
Can any one please assist, advice/guide here, how to move about it, kind of struggling.
From where to start and what to look for, would like to start with parameters and the most important have to implement my suggested solution too on this Dev db and try to convince and coordinate with the Prod dba too, in order to implement there.
Looking forward for a favorable response, thanks in advance.

I came across information that Firefox has turned off the development for Windows 64-bit.
That is incorrect. There is a plan to stop producing 64-bit nightly builds, which are tests versions of Firefox.
You are using the release version of Firefox, which is 32-bit, and will continue working unaffected by the aforementioned change. 32-bit programs work without a hitch under 64-bit Windows. The default Start Menu shortcut for Internet Explorer points to the 32-bit version, and Firefox's main competitor Chrome is also available only in a 32-bit variety.
Even if you were using the 64-bit test version — and you aren't — the plan is to silently move testers to the 32-bit version, so as long as you have automatic updates enabled, you wouldn't have to do anything.
Technical details about 64-bit builds can be found below.

From where to start designing logo

Hello everyone I know how to work with flash and photoshop but I am not sure about the good program to make the logo If I want to learn designing logo professionally from where should I start??????????

I could not have said it better my self, you always should put alot of thinking, sketching before ever actually going into the program of choice. ( I would always recommend Illustrator to get most or all of the logo done in, espitially if your ever going to use the logo for print! vector is key! )
- Excellent post!
Re: from where to start designing logo
Very good link!
I
feel that logo design starts long before any sort of graphics program
comes into play. It is done with pen and paper, or perhaps a word
processor, where the concept of the logo should arise from a lot of
discussion and heavy thought. Many questions should be asked, and then
answered, before the first designs are even committed to a sketch. A
logo can convey a lot about a company, and should do so. A lot of
thinking, mostly in words, is where I would urge anyone to start. Do
this homework well, and first, and the rest almost becomes mechanical.
When
the concepts are nailed down, it's time to begin the actual process.
The into PS as a rough, is a good one. One can try a lot of treatments,
to refine the concept. Then, for a usable logo, I feel that AI is the
next step, as has been stated. From there, one has complete control, and
depending on the use at that moment, PS can often help with getting
that AI file into a Raster image. InDesign can also be very useful to
the implementation of the logo.
Again, good article, and thanks,
Hunt

How / from where to start on Solaris Driver developement?

Hi,
'm a User domain developer, want to also learn about driver developement.
Please give me pointers so that I can start with
Thanks,
-Vikrant

First of all you should download the following two documents:
- Writing Device Drivers
- STREAMS Programming Guide
If you want to develop USB drivers you must have USBA 1.0 installed (Solaris 8/9 has 0.8 as default) and additionally download the "USB DDK" from Sun.
A device driver is an object file (created by "ld -r ..."). You cannot decide if you use 32 or 64 bit. On a 64 bit OS you MUST use 64 bit code.
If you use GCC: On Sparc machines 64 bit code is generated using "-m64", not using "-xarch=v9".
The driver must provide three functions: "_init", "_info" and "_fini" (see first document).
There are two types of drivers:
1) Streams drivers (described in the second document) are drivers for stream devices. These are all devices that implement a character stream and can be used with "streamio" ioctls. Examples are: All terminals and serial ports, printer ports, mice, keyboards, ...
These devices communicate with the system calls (e.g. read, write, ioctl) using special data packets. Therefore programming Streams drivers is very different from writing other drivers.
All streams devices are character devices.
You can also write streams modules (see man streamio, I_PUSH). Such modules are "filters" that can modify the data between the device driver and the application.
2) Other drivers. They may be character or block devices. These drivers have different functions for different function calls. Example: The "ioctl" function call will call the function "MyDriver_Ioctl" of your driver.
I think writing a non-streams driver is way more simple than writing a streams driver. I had some system crashes when running instable self-written streams drivers. However some drivers must be streams drivers e.g. if you want to use the device as a terminal device or if you want to push modules using I_PUSH.
Unlike Linux the OS detects the presence of hardware and decides when to load a driver. You create the file /kernel/drv/NameOfYourDriver.conf with driver settings. This file also contains the information that your driver does not require hardware (e.g. ram disks). You must add your driver to the system by typing "add_drv NameOfYourDriver". Use the "-i" option to tell the system which hardware is handled by your driver.

I am new in portal development . From where to start

Hello !
I am new in portal development .
i have installed 8i db on Linux and 9iAS on win2k . Now i want
to start developent through oracle portal .
For that purpose i have downloaded PDK .
Now what to do .
I am still unable to find the platform where i have to start
development .
Can somebody tell me which steps are required to start
development.
i am more interested doing development in pl/sql.
Where i have to type the code .
Where i have to execute it.
Where and how to run it.
Can somebody tell me with small example .
Regards

Seemab,
I feel your pain. After having been at this for a couple of
months, here's what I have to offer you.
0) Watch every single one of the portal tutorials on this
website. They are little movies and slide shows with tutorials
and actual application walkthroughs that were EXTREMELY HELPFUL
to me and my team in the absence of formalized training. They
were really great.
1) Take a few days and read every single white paper that you
can about Oracle 9iAS Portal and its architecture.
2) Use the portal interface to create groups and users.
3) Experiment with as many aspects of the portal interface that
you can. This will help you see the strengths and limitations
of portal, and where you may need to focus your development
effort.
4) Create database objects like tables by using the portal
interface. Create an LOV off of one of the tables, and use it
in a form. This is all just general stuff that helped
familiarize me with portal.
5) Publish different kinds of documents to the portal.
6) Create a PL/SQL item in a portal. Educate yourself on the
HTP and HTF procedures and functions to print things to the
screen dynamically.
7) Most important of all, download as many pieces of sample
code as you can and install it to portal. On this website you
will find numerous instances of sample portlets and
applications. You will learn what it takes to install Java-
based providers, servlets, and others.
8) Using a good PL/SQL tool like SQL*Navigator or TOAD, browse
your way through the PORTAL30 data dictionary, going through all
of the tables and especially the packages. This will help you
learn where you need to write code to interact with the
underlying objects in Portal.
I'm sorry I can't be more specific than that, but you can really
be on your way to becoming a well-rounded portal developer by
experimenting with these things that I have listed.
Good luck!

I can't get past the "redemption" phase in Elements. I enter the number I got from Amazone, where I downloaded the program, but Adobe tells me it's incorrect. Help!

I can't get past the "redemption" phase in Elements. I entered the number I got from Amazon, from where I downloaded the program, but Adobe tells me the number is the wrong code.

Hello,
because you did purchase your product from Amazon, you didn't get a serial number, only a code with which you can request a serial number from Adobe. Please have a look at http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html. (Start here: How did you purchase your product?)
The following part, so I just see at least, ceased to exist on my Adobe website, everything takes place in the link from above. I leave it as an info yet, it might still fit for you. For this purpose, please click your way through to your Adobe Store and find the button "Get Serial Number". Fill in the form and after a while you will get the real serial number.
Good luck!

Desktop apps developing: where to start

Hi!
I wanna develop some nifty little helpers doing common daily stuff, like checking the up time of the internet connection and displaying it anywhere on the desktop or in the gnome-panel. that's just an example. a lot of this tasks can be done with cronjobs and bash-scripts, but for graphical stuff there's somethin' else needed.
The question: Where to start? I know, a forum search and googling brings up a lot of tutorials, but I even don't have a point where to start, which programming language is best for apps like this.
And no, I'm not looking for general programming tutorials.
Thanks in advice!

Well there's plethora of ways you can do build desktop apps. The language is mostly irrelevant nowadays, choose whichever you prefer, C, C++, C#, python, perl, tcl. You may start with deciding on language and possibly toolkint you would wish to use. Some hints, using C you have GTK as your primary toolking, then goes GNUstep thing, Xlib as an option if you need sort of hackish feeling, Motif if you have access to libraries and some ancient Unix system. If you would prefer C++, there's Qt (excellent documentation on http://doc.trolltech.com) and GTKmm. I personally prefer Qt since it's easy, intuitive and is a base of KDE.
You may end up using python which, surprisingly, seems to be preferred by most of people on the forums. If so then pygtk or pyqt is a must.
I would discourage from using horrid toolkits like wxWidgets, no fun at all.
Other thing for desktop apps would be inter-app communication and sharing common functionality, which is handled by Kparts & DCOP for KDE3, and (correct me if I'm wrong) bonobo - a CORBA-like thing for gnome (?).
For KDE these will be useful:
http://developer.kde.org/documentation/
API reference
http://developer.kde.org/documentation/library/
Both Qt and GTKmm have nice tutorial which help you get started quite easily.
However if you would like to write conky like stuff, then unfortunately Xlib is the way:

Some common desktop standards (system tray, iccm window manager etc.) are provided here:

Need to start a program in Oracle System (External) from sap program

Hi,
Here is another sample for procedures.Kindly reward points by clicking the star on the left of reply,if it is useful.
Code Sample for writing a procedure with input and output parameters
REPORT zzz_jaytest.
* Getting the regno and total as input parameters
PARAMETERS : p_regno(10) TYPE c DEFAULT 'R1000',
                           p_total     TYPE i.
data : v_total type i.
* In this procedure, we are updating the total of a regno given as input.
* Here two parameters used in the procedure are input parameters.
* We are updating the record of regno entered in selection screen and
* adding the total entered to the already existing total. We have to give semicolon
* for the statement inside procedure.
exec sql.
CREATE or replace PROCEDURE PROC1 ( p_regno in char, p_total in number )
IS
    BEGIN
      UPDATE stu_det SET total = total + p_total where regno = p_regno;
    END;
endexec.
* This is the code to execute the procedure for update.
* While executing the procedure, the parameter variable should be
* preceded with colon :
EXEC SQL.
EXECUTE PROCEDURE PROC1 ( in :p_regno, in :p_total )
ENDEXEC.
* In this procedure, we are selecting the details for the regno entered
* as input. Here p_regno is input parameter and v_total is used as output
* parameter. So that we can use the retrieved value of v_total in our
* ABAP program
exec sql.
CREATE or replace PROCEDURE PROC2 (p_regno in char, v_total out char)
IS
    BEGIN
      select total into v_total from stu_det
                         where regno = p_regno;
    END;
endexec.
* This is the code to execute second procedure.
EXEC SQL.
EXECUTE PROCEDURE PROC2 ( in :p_regno, out :v_total )
ENDEXEC.
write : / 'Total of ', p_regno, ' is ', v_total.

How do you stop Audigy programs from loading at start

I posted yesterday regarding my sound card (Audigy 2 ZS Platinum) taking up a large amount of CPU.
I went into my BIOS and basically assigned every free IRQ to my PCI cards and yet again changed the slot that the card sits on. Everything is back to normal and I think I might know why, which is where my question comes in.
Thankfully, XP allows me to use the card without rebooting. If I do reboot, I have a feeling 3 things will happen.
. A pop up window will appear at the top of my screen that allows me to control certain aspects of the card.
2. A program will appear in my task bar (white with blue headphones) which allows me to run Creative Programs.
3. My CPU will jack up again.
Because I didn't have to reboot when i re-installed the card, these two programs are not running.
My question is, how do I stop those two programs from loading at start up? I've closed them down in the past after a reboot and it does not help, so obviously something is loading with them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
