Get serious about xml input...

After finding more bugs in Soundtrack Pro I ran some tests with importing Final Cut Pro XML lists into Logic Pro.
This seems to be a token feature with no attempt to make it work at all. The automation data bears no relationship to the exported FCP levels. Stereo tracks are split into two channels,blah blah blah, bug, bug, bug...
Is it hopeless to expect that this feature actually work someday? Logic is so powerful - would love to mix in Logic Pro... what a fantasy!

How to get and parse xml input parameter?

Hi,
If one transaction input parameter is xml string, like as below.
<a>

 <c>1</c>
 <d>2</d>


 <c>3</c>
 <d>4</d>

</a>
If I would like to get each element (maybe by repeater action), how to do that?
Thanks!

Hi,
You must convert the string into xml with necessary action block. (XML Functions --> String to XML Parser)
Then you must put a repeater after converter action and you must set Xpath expression for repeater (configuration) like below:
String_To_XML_Parser_0.Output{/ARef/BRef}
after repeater you can use values like below:
Repeater.Output{/BRef/c}
Repeater.Output{/BRef/d}
Regards.

Just Starting to get serious about PhotoShop

Quickly, I have been a film and darkroom photographer since 1969. I kept my darkroom up and running until 2005 when I closed it and started sending my commercial work out for processing. It wasn't until 2007 that I purchased a DSLR and that was only a Nikon D70s as I really didn't have a good handle on the digital medium and, quite honestly, was uncomfortable with the digital darkroom. I tried Nikon Capture and found it OK and then I bought PhotoShop CS 3. I learned to work with that software by the seat of the pants and had some trouble translating the procedures from standard darkroom work flow. I later bought a Nikon D300 and that is as far into digital cameras as I have gone or plan to go. The D300 is my digital vacation from film and I am now enjoying the medium.
What I had decided to do by purchasing the PhotoShop CC package was to seriously devote my time to actually learning the nuance of photoshop and that is why I am here. I would like some help in deciphering what you folks here would consider the proper method of learning how to process photographs in PhotoShop on a professional level. I know how to work with layers and curves and the simple things but am not anywhere near working with the elements within a photo to enhance certain details or contrast without influencing the entire photo. Highlights and deep shadows are what I loved with film but finding my way around the digital darkroom is the same as film only different if you understand what I am saying here. I live in a rural area of northern California and getting night classes is out of the question as I would have to drive many miles to a school that had digital post processing classes.
Any suggestions are welcome. I feel very comfortable here and I have viewed a few tutorials but, at the same time, I have retired my Mac Pro of 2007 and purchased an iMac Retina i5 27" monitor and that has taken a lot of organizing after the wonderful use of the Apple Migration app. Now, that was a great experience! However, I didn't think to categorize the files as they were migrated to LightRoom and the new Bridge so I now have to figure out how to organize acres of files and folders to get everything straightened out with that. So, my decades of film aside, I would like to start from scratch and utilize the software and support to help me get up to speed with this new software. I know that sounds like a lot to ask but I am only asking for direction and not looking for a free tutor.
Thanks for any help in advance. I feel that this is a very knowledgeable and professional community to which I would like to become a solid member from here on. TCrowe-Glen Ellen Photography

Hi Crotographer and welcome aboard,
Our purpose as user-volunteers is to help you out whether you have a question about Photoshop or just want some instructions on accomplishing an effect. If you want training courses, I've got a recommendation for a training site.
The best videos for me are found at Lynda.com. The courses are for photographers by photographers and will cover the subject leaving no gaps. One of my favorite instructors is Deke McClelland and his One on One courses. He thorough and concise. A course from him is worth the subscription fees. Samples from his courses are there. You can see and decide for yourself.
I'll leave it at that one suggestion and let others tell you what they like and why.
I'll also mention that there are separate forums for Lightroom, Bridge, and Adobe Camera Raw to handle your questions for those Adobe products.

APPLE: Get serious about Education or get out

APPLE has taken lots of money from schools across the nation. In my experience, this has been the return:
- an iPad Lab that doesn't sometimes doesn't recognize some iPads, forcing me to unplug them and plug them in again
- a notification that they're not charging, even though they are
- a program - Apple Configurator - that is so buggy that it is almost unusable
- a web filter that blocks a website my school pays for - Study Island - even when every conceivable address associated with that website has been put on the whitelist
- a program - iTunes - that demands to open unsummoned when the Mac starts up, interrupting an already faulty Apple Configurator program, often causing a crash... the kicker is that I can't stop it from happening
- silly obstacles to supervising iPads, like having to keep location services turned off
Your product is ripping off millions of taxpayer dollars. You have shown little initiative in fixing problems that are basic roadblocks to usage. And you don't seem to care very much. When anyone asks me about computers or tablets, your company is the LAST one I would recommend. And that's including companies that make novelty abacuses or that refurbish old typewriters.

Required Attribute style XML input from BPEL

Hi all,
We are integrating JDE 811 with BPEL using ORACLE SOA Suite 10133.
As per the documentation given http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31017_01/integrate.1013/b28996/bpel_pm.htm#CDEICHJB, we created the BPEL process to support transacation from BPEL to JDE 811. As given in the document we generated the WSDL in attribute style. For testing the BPEL Process, they have given the XML input in the document in the format of attribute style as given below :
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soap:Body xmlns:ns1="http://xmlns.oracle.com/GetYearDescription_SYNC">
<ns1:jdeRequest type="callmethod">
<callMethod name="GetYearDescription" runOnError="no">
<params>
<param name="mnCalendarYear">58</param>
</params><onError abort="yes"/>
</callMethod>
</ns1:jdeRequest>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
and the output we received as
<GetYearDescription_SYNCProcessResponsehttp://xmlns.oracle.com/GetYearDescription_SYNCPSFTcallmethodDV811*ALL>
<callMethodGetYearDescriptionnourn:iwaysoftware:jde/services/JDEJAVA_CMFGBASE/B3000260/GetYearDescription>
<params>
<parammnCalendarYear>58</param>
<paramszYearDescription>2058</param>
</params>
</callMethod>
</GetYearDescription_SYNCProcessResponse>
But, if we use the current schema and give input using normal HTML form on the BPELConsole then the error comes like
WSIF JCA Execute of operation 'GetYearDescription' failed due to: Error in processing the input document.; nested exception is: javax.resource.ResourceException:
Error in processing the input document.</summary>
</part><part name="detail"><detail>javax.resource.ResourceException: Error in processing the input document.
that is why for outbound integration we need to give raw XML during runtime as input to the bpel process in bpel console manually. and that input looks like
Also in real time scenario, we are receiving the XML input from a third party software/Adapter that may be a flat file/.xml flat file/DB and we need to pass the similar data in BPEL to the JDE 811. Here we are not able to pass the data to JDE as the adapter accepts the input in attribute style XML.
If we are trying to enter that input through a flat .xml file then it returns no data, as nothing is passed to that process.
Any idea how we can process this without giving raw xml input manually during run time, means using normal HTML Form.
if it is not possible then please tell me what will be the required XML that we have to pass as input in that flat file.
Thanks,
Anindya

Hi All,
SOAP based input is required for any BPEL process for testing in BPEL Console.
We have created a BPEL process which is successfully receiving data from 3rd party and it is not in a SOAP format.
That is why we are entering input manually (I have already described input in above post) while testing that BPEL process. and we can receive proper output (i have already specified what i am getting as output in my above post.)
But in real time scenario we cant give input manually.
how can we achieve SOAP based invocation during runtime??
I hope my question is clear to all.
please suggest me if anybody have any idea about this.
Regards
Anindya

Need help to get output in XML

Hi all
I am a PL/SQL programmer and have no idea about XML :-(
I am using ORACLE 10g and my application generates atleast 100 text files a day for customers. These files are manipulated using Utl_File package and gets data from the DB.These files are tab or comma delimeted. Now company wants to give an option to customers to get the same output in XML format. My understanding is that I need to get information from customers first to make the report template for them and then use some XML parser to get data from DB and give an output using that customer's specific template.
I wanna know, if there is any whitepaper or manual that can guide me step by step. I just need to make an idea how the things can go togather and the sequence of operation.

How To Get AppleToCare About You (iOS7 wifi solved)

I recently encountered the now seemingly infamous iOS7 upgrade wifi bug. After upgrading to iOS 7.1.1 my wifi was subsequently knocked out. After reading skimming the forums and trying a few of the suggested work arounds I was still unable to get my wifi working (at all). I decided to wait for the next software update assuming Apple would fix the bug. What can I say? I like to believe people are inherently good and accountable. No such luck. When I went back to the forums for a better understanding of the problem I was (somewhat) surprised to discover the magnitude of the issue. For me, the end result was a new FREE iPhone despite my warranty expiring several months ago.
Try all of the (reasonable) suggested solutions. They did not work for me but that does not mean they will not work for you - no seriously actually try them:
I turned off wifi and bluetooth, set the phone to airplane mode, turned it off, left it off for several minutes, turned it back on - Nothing.
I reset my Wifi Router - Nothing.
I reset all Settings - Nothing.
I reset my Network Connection - Nothing.
I did a Soft Reset - Hold down the power and home buttons simultaneously and do not release until after the screen goes black and the apple logo appears. - Nothing.
I did a Hard Reset (aka Factory Reset) - BACK UP YOUR PHONE FIRST. I connected to iTunes and performed a backup then hit restore (within iTunes). This can be done directly from your phone but if you're here because you're experiencing wifi issues your phone is probably not backed up to iCloud.
Genius Bar. BE POLITE but firm and know your stuff. They don't owe you anything. Well Apple kinda does, but the employees in the store didn't break your phone so don't act like they did. At the end of the day Apple wrote a buggy code and isn't acknowledging the problem or compensating it's loyal customers. The only way Apple will be held accountable for leaving so many customers out to dry is if customers demand it. However, the Genius Bar is not the place to take out your rage. When I went into the Genius Bar I explained the issue I was having and the steps I had taken in an attempt to fix it. I let her run all the tests and tricks she wanted (knowing full well they weren't going to work). She politely explained to me that I would need to purchase a new phone. I explained to her that I could not, in good conscious, give a company money to solve a problem that they caused. (Some people are crying conspiracy on the part of Apple to get people to buy new phones but I haven't drank the punch yet. - I only took a sip.) I asked if she could do anything else for me. She told me that AppleCare might be responsive to my issue despite my expired warranty as they are a separate entity from Genius Bar and have more authority to help customers. I (sincerely) thanked her (several times) for helping me and asked if I could speak to a manager just to see if there was anything else they could do in store. She said absolutely and that she would "grab a nice manager". I spoke with the manager and briefly explained the issue. I then explained my issue lies primarily with Apple's business model. I, personally, take excellent care of my devices and expect them to last more than a year. I expect that when I buy a device with a premium reputation and a premium price tag that it should be supported by the company for a reasonable amount of time. The iPhone 4s is still being sold in stores and Apple is already neglecting 4s customers - (WILDLY) unacceptable. The manager was very nice about it and expressed that I made valid points and my frustration was justified but yet no solution.
AppleCare. After stopping in the Windows store to check possible new phones I trudged home. (Despite my fortunate result I still have a sour taste in my mouth from Apple's method of forcing customers to spend money unnecessarily on constantly changing but marginally improving products. I'm now seriously considering a Windows tablet to replace my aging MacBook.) Anyway, when I got home I called AppleCare and had a very similar exchange with the associate on the phone as I'd had in the store and was subsequently transferred my to a manager. Again, I was extremely polite to the associate and grateful for the help but made a firm point of dissatisfaction with Apple. When I got on the phone with the manager our exchange was quite short but he acknowledged that because the issues arose from a software update causing a hardware problem Apple would compensate me. (Yes, software can physically affect hardware. The CIA uses code to blow up bomb detonators masked as cell phones. It's dope. There's a TED talk about it.) In the end I got a new iPhone for FREE (with a standard replacement fee - ok Apple you won that round. It's still significantly less money I'd spend on a new phone from Apple or elsewhere).
Moral of the story: Be polite but demand more from the companies you made (filthy) rich. Companies don't care about their customers as much as they should and we can't sit around and wait for them to behave themselves. We need to demand it (even if it ruins our Sunday afternoons). I'd also like to make it known that several times during these exchanges that I'm probably ditching Apple for good. If you use that approach you should be ready to back it up. I'm probably not going to buy another MacBook as I'm a grown up now doing actual work and Apple's inability to play nice with others makes it really difficult to run much of the software at the level I need. (Programmers, you know what I'm talking about!) As for phones, I require much less of my phone. Beyond, you know, using it as an actual phone, I really only use the GPS, music, photos, and web browser so I've always been a fan of the iPhone. After this, however, I don't know if I'll be getting another. I don't like spending money when I don't need to, especially if it's just making fat cats fatter.

She told me that AppleCare might be responsive to my issue despite my expired warranty as they are a separate entity from Genius Bar and have more authority to help customers. I (sincerely) thanked her (several times) for helping me and asked if I could speak to a manager just to see if there was anything else they could do in store. She said absolutely and that she would "grab a nice manager". I spoke with the manager and briefly explained the issue. I then explained my issue lies primarily with Apple's business model. I, personally, take excellent care of my devices and expect them to last more than a year. I expect that when I buy a device with a premium reputation and a premium price tag that it should be supported by the company for a reasonable amount of time. The iPhone 4s is still being sold in stores and Apple is already neglecting 4s customers - (WILDLY) unacceptable. The manager was very nice about it and expressed that I made valid points and my frustration was justified but yet no solution.
AppleCare. After stopping in the Windows store to check possible new phones I trudged home. (Despite my fortunate result I still have a sour taste in my mouth from Apple's method of forcing customers to spend money unnecessarily on constantly changing but marginally improving products. I'm now seriously considering a Windows tablet to replace my aging MacBook.) Anyway, when I got home I called AppleCare and had a very similar exchange with the associate on the phone as I'd had in the store and was subsequently transferred my to a manager. Again, I was extremely polite to the associate and grateful for the help but made a firm point of dissatisfaction with Apple. When I got on the phone with the manager our exchange was quite short but he acknowledged that because the issues arose from a software update causing a hardware problem Apple would compensate me. (Yes, software can physically affect hardware. The CIA uses code to blow up bomb detonators masked as cell phones. It's dope. There's a TED talk about it.) In the end I got a new iPhone for FREE (with a standard replacement fee - ok Apple you won that round. It's still significantly less money I'd spend on a new phone from Apple or elsewhere).
Moral of the story: Be polite but demand more from the companies you made (filthy) rich. Companies don't care about their customers as much as they should and we can't sit around and wait for them to behave themselves. We need to demand it (even if it ruins our Sunday afternoons). I'd also like to make it known that several times during these exchanges that I'm probably ditching Apple for good. If you use that approach you should be ready to back it up. I'm probably not going to buy another MacBook as I'm a grown up now doing actual work and Apple's inability to play nice with others makes it really difficult to run much of the software at the level I need. (Programmers, you know what I'm talking about!) As for phones, I require much less of my phone. Beyond, you know, using it as an actual phone, I really only use the GPS, music, photos, and web browser so I've always been a fan of the iPhone. After this, however, I don't know if I'll be getting another. I don't like spending money when I don't need to, especially if it's just making fat cats fatter.

I have an iMac that won't boot up. I've read all posts on this subject to no avail. When power is switched on, it chimes, Apple logo appears, spinning wheel, then loading bar starts to fill. It gets to about 25% then switches off! Help please!

iMac that won't boot up! When power is switched on it chimes, Apple logo appears, then loading bar, then spinning wheel. Bar seems to load up and gets to around 25%, then reverts to the start again, gets to about 20% on the bar and then switches itself off leaving a black screen. Tried all the remedies on internet with no avail so would welcome some advice other than binning what is a relatively new computer. Earliest appointment Apple could offer was Thursday 17th, really useful for a business user _ not impressed,

You've probably tried this, but will it Safe Boot? Restart holding down the Shift key until you see the grey progress bar. You'll need to input your admin password during bootup. If it will boot you can then try to eject the disk using the various suggestions here that you haven't tried already:

How to get information about cursor? I had only a reference on it.

Hello
How to get information about cursor, that I receive in my procedure as a reference. For example I need to know, a number of columns. I know nothing about this cursor, except the link on it.
Best Regards, Kostya Proskudin!

However, I would seriously reconsider what you are trying to achieve.
It looks like you are trying to write some ultimately generic cursor processor. i.e. pass any cursor and process it in some generic way.
Good design should include knowledge of what is expected to be passed and that knowledge can be put into the code.
Generic code is inherently difficult to maintain and debug and will never 100% deal with all possible situations e.g. even if you know the table being queried in the cursor you can't rely on the data dictionary to give you all the returned columns if some of the returned columns of the cursor are computed columns.
Be careful you aren't writing something that's going to cause problems later.

Problem in sending XML input as String in BPEL

Hi,
We have a BPEL flow (assign, invoke, assign) which takes an XML input as String.
<RegisterCustomerOnVAS><CustomerID>100</CustomerID><MSISDN>9999999</MSISDN><CustomerName>sanjeev</CustomerName><customerInfo>new user</customerInfo></RegisterCustomerOnVAS>
Assignment is doing fine, but when Invoke calls partner link, the input is getting parsed and only the first text value (eg 100) is getting passed to the partner webservice instead of the entire XML as string.
Can any one please help us in fixing in this problem.
Thanks

Hi,
You should watch your assign activity (maybe a bad assigment level in copy rule). I think the probem is there.

How to get the resulting XML as string

Hello,
I think my question is very simple but i'm new in this area.
What i'm try to do is to parse a XML document with the DOM parser. Then i manipulate the DOM tree. After finishing the process i want to get the resulting XML document as an InputStream to give to another application for storing back into the database.
Until know i print the resulting XML to System.out or I write it to a file.
Do you know where i can find more information about this? Sample code??
Thanks!

You can try following code. It is not the simplest way, but it works for me:
// Print to temp buffer
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
DataOutputStream output = new DataOutputStream(baos);
Xml_doc.print(output);
String outtemp=baos.toString();
System.out.println(outtemp);
include following line for the lib:

Many thanks for the reply. It works!

Hi Suraj,
That option is not available in FTP mode..
This option is applicable only for the File adapter. If you enter a value in this field when configuring the sender FTP adapter, it will have no effect.
Yes, you're right !!
Are you sure that the message is not getting picked in half-way
Now, at this time, I can't see the XML data in the CC monitoring because the tool shows only the recent polling execute in the last 10 minutes. If the error recurs, I will check the payload of CC.
How can I solve the problem with reading incomplete file (FTP mode)?
...Meanwhile I will try with Full cache refresh.
Thanks
Daniele

RFC problem: could not get functionname from XML requst (sic)

I'm developing an interface that attempts to call a receiver RFC on an SAP 4.6c system. It's a very small simple interface, and it's all working until it tries to call the RFC. The error is
Exception caught by adapter framework: error while processing message to remote system:com.sap.aii.af.rfc.core.client.RfcClientException: could not get functionname from XML requst: com.sap.aii.af.rfc.RfcAdapterException: failed to read funtionname from XML document: missing namespace declara
I've created an RFC channel, which is green in the adapter monitoring. The RFC imports without a problem, and appears in my interface mapping. My mapping program converts to the RFC message type (as evidenced in sxmb_moni. I have a receiver agreement referencing the interface mapping, which must be working as the mapping is called.
Could anyone point me to what else I could check? I saw a post about the same error message, where the respondent found something in the logs which helped them Could you expand on what you found, and in which log please? Any pointers as to which logging options I could switch on and check would be gratefully received.
Regards
Alan Graham

Thanks for the responses.
I set up a communications channel of type RFC, which is
showing green in the adapter monitor. If I deliberately
break it, eg by changing the password, the adapter shows
as red in the monitor. I assume therefore that the
adaptor settings are correct.
The XML going to the adapter looks correct AFAIK. My problem is that I don't know enough about the requied XML to know if what I'm seeing in the logs is sufficient. In SXMB_MONI, in the 'call adapter' section of a failed message, the outbound binding includes
<SAP:ToInterfaceNamespace>urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions</SAP:ToInterfaceNamespace>/code]
Also, the interface determination SOAP header, in the MAIN section includes
[code]<SAP:Receiver>
<SAP:Party agency="" scheme="" />
<SAP:Service>D04</SAP:Service>
<SAP:Interface namespace="urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions">Z_MPU_3PSCE_FREIGHT_UPLOAD</SAP:Interface>
</SAP:Receiver>
These are the correct values for the RFC name and the namespace, AFAIK.
I'm using an interface mapping (which uses and ABAP class as the mapping program) which references the interface of the RFC. The logs tell me this works, ie, the class is called and the resulting XML appears in the payload of the response.

From which infotype we get details about empoyee group ,subgroup company co

From which infotype we get details about empoyee group ,subgroup company code. based on the selected job position for new employee.

Hi Aruna,
If i can understand your question better, when we do the hiring how to fetch the default EG/ESG/Co.Code/PSA etc....based on the input of position...
When you create position in OM; also create
1. Infotype 1008 - Account assignment - To Fetch Co. Code, PA, PSA, Controlling area
2. Inotype 1013 - EG/ESG - To Fetch Emp Group/Emp SubGroup
Now when you run the hiring action, on IT0000, input the position and hit an enter key...this will call the related values (if integration is active).
Good Luck !!!!
Kumarpal Jain.
