Get the Type (U8, U16...I64) of controls inside a Cluster

Hi,
I have a cluster with several controls.
I would like to get the type of each control inside of it. To get the class is ok. This is simple and all of them are Digital. But I need to know if they are U8, U16, U32 ...... I64.
Any idea how to do this?
Paul
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I got it.
I had to Convert the Element Refernce to Digital and then to use the property BitAccurateDataSize.
I lost several hours to find the solution and in 5 minutes after I had posted my problem on forum I solved it .

How to get the type of numeric

Hi,
I would like to know how getting the type of a numeric data programmatically. (DBL, SDL, I16, I32,etc.)
This property is defined by selecting "Type of data" in the property's window of a numeric data; then by clicking on "representing".
I tried to find the solution by using a property node then accessing to the property called 'representing".
Without success, it seems this function is not available.
Is anyone would know the solution.
Thanks by advance,
pr93

There are several solutions.
The 7.x version of the Flatten To String function had an additional output called "type string" which was actually an array of numbers. This array would tell you that information. OpenG has a VI that will tell you the datatype from this array. It's called "Get TDEnum From TD" and is in the LabVIEW Data Tools library. You can use VI Package Manager to easily install OpenG libraries.
If you have a control you could use a reference and then use the "Get Type of Control" VI from the <vi.lib>\Utility\GetType.llb library.
You could convert th"e numeric value to a variant and then use the "Get Type of Variant" VI from the <vi.lib>\Utility\GetType.llb library.

Get the Type of a generic field at runtime, How to?

Hello,
As the topic already says, i need to get the Type of a particular field of a class. This field is declared private and generic. In C# there is a method
Type Object.getTypeIs there any specific way to do this in Java 1.5?
Please excuse my poor english.
Thanks in advance.

If you want to know the parametrized type (String in the example), I think there is no way of knowing this in Java 1.5 or Java 1.6, since the parametrized type is erased and not available at run time.The type of a parameterized field is not erased.For most intents and purposes, it is. Type erasure refers to the fact that at runtime, there are not actually multiple class binaries depending on the generic arguments to a class. Therefore, an ArrayList<T> is actually just an ArrayList with no generics.
Frankly, I don't understand why you insist that the information on generic fields that the OP was asking about is lost at runtime.I wasn't trying to insist that. At the time, I was replying more to Saish and trying to reaffirm that most information about generics is lost at run-time. I mistakenly ignored how you qualified it with "field."
What you write about instances of generic classes losing their type information is of course correct, albeit not to the point of the original question.Nope, you're right. I was just trying to reconcile the fact that many people get confused that there's any information available at run-time, and so start down the path of thinking that type erasure doesn't exist. But it very much does.
The original question was about how to obtain the type of a generic field.And I did show in my example that even that is fairly limited, given that if the type is provided by the parameter of the class, it doesn't give you anything useful (I'm not trying to say you said it would!).
The compiler preservers this information in the class file, so it can be obtained at runtime. Frameworks like JPA put this to use extensively, proving that it is of real value.Definitely. However I don't see this having as much to do with generics as basic reflection functionality. If you can get the type of a field at run-time, you should be able to get the parameters as well! That should in no way belittle its value, though. But I would have guessed (knowing little about) that JPA wouldn't put that to use so much as the type parameters of an accessor return type or mutator argument type. Especially since I thought we'd shown that you would need your fields to be non-private for JPA to be able to gain information about their type.
Edit: getDeclaredField works fine with private members, and returns the expected "java.lang.String" from jschell's example above

How to get the type of answer in a workitem?

Hi Experts,
I am building a report to get the users responsible for the approval of SCs and POs, in this report I need to get the type of answer given by the approver, if they have rejected, approved or partial rejected / approved the object.
When I look at the container of the workitem I can get the agent responsible for the action and the dates, but I need your help to determine the type of answer. I believe I can get this information from the approval state, no? But I am getting a lot of different approval states: 0, 1, 3, 4, 10, 11 and 15. Can you provide me some guidance? I am new to workflows and I am stuck in this point.
I am using SRM 5.0 and n-step approval workflow.
Thanks in advance,
Francisco

I'm not an SRM expert, but from a pure workflow point you can read the output of a workitem. So, check how your workflow is built and then see what values are returned in the corresponding return fields. Explore the workitem structure in the log.

Get the type of collecion elements

Hi,
I would like to get the type of the elements of a collection when I give the name the collection. Does anybody suggest anything about the SQL code?
For example
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE CourseList AS TABLE OF VARCHAR2(64);
CREATE TABLE department (
name VARCHAR2(20),
director VARCHAR2(20),
office VARCHAR2(20),
courses CourseList)
NESTED TABLE courses STORE AS courses_tab;
How it is possible to get the type of elements of CourseList (in the example it is VARCHAR2(64)) if I give the name of the nested table courses?
Thank you

Smells like some kind of dynamic SQL or dynamic PL/SQL thing. It usually stinks.
If the dynamic part comes into play at rendering time (like in APEX for example that executes a SQL and then needs to dynamically render the projection) - use DBMS_SQL cursors (or ref cursors when rendering in an external client). Use the describe interface to dynamically determine the structure of the SQL projection.
Anything more than that - think carefully. Especially at it seems you want to deal with actual relational data structure dynamically. 99% of the time it is flawed and the remaining 1% of the time the person usually have no idea what he (or she) is really doing... ;-)

How do I get the Label for a Front Panel Control to appear in the Block Diagram but not on the Front Panel?

How do I get the Label for a Front Panel Control to appear in the Block Diagram but not on the Front Panel? On the Front Panel I am making a complex control that consists of a Slider and a Numerical Input box. Both Controls display the same information and either can be used for Input. When one changs, the other is made to display the same value.
But I only want the Slider to display the Label on the Front Panel, to avoid confusion. On the Block Diagram however, I want both controls to display their Labels so that I know what they are. How do I display the Label for a Control on the Block diagram, but not display its Label on the Front Panel?

No. The Label Visible property is separate for the front panel control label and the block diagram terminal label.
How did you start out with the block diagram's label not being visible? Whenever I drop a control or indicator, the label is always visible on both the FP and BD by default. Maybe there is a LabVIEW option that causes new controls/indicators not to have their labels visible by default, but I have yet to find it. I don't think an item should ever be dropped without the label visible, good LabVIEW coding practice demands that the labels for control terminals on the block diagram be visible so that you know what control or indicator a wire is going to.
That being said, I have seen a lot of VI's posted where the label for the terminal on the BD is not shown (against good programming practice.) I've gone to the BD and right clicked to show the label. Sometimes, the people have an empty label (which will turn off the visibility for both the FP and BD) and I'm forced to add some text of my own into the label so I can figure out what their code is doing. When I add some text to the label, at that time, I find both the BD and FP labels become visible.
Are you dealing with controls that have empty labels to start?
Good programming practices:
1. Always have a name for all of your controls, never use and empty label by deleting the text in the label.
2. Make the labels unique. For example, don't have two controls both called Stop. How do you know quickly know which terminal relates to which control?
3. Always show the labels on the block diagram, so you know the function of a control's terminal. If you want to hide the label on the FP, that's okay.
4. If you want a different label to appear on the FP than whatever you actually called the control, then use the caption. You can hide the label and show the caption. This is useful if you need to programmatically change what the "label" is on the front panel such if you are making an application that needs to change its user interface such as for a foreign language.

How to get the type of org.omg.CORBA.Any ?

Hi there
My q is: how can I get the type of an Any object?
Please have a look at the following code:
ORB orb = ORB.init();
org.omg.CORBA.Any anytest = orb.create_any();
anytest.insert_string("mystring");
TypeCode tc = anytest.type();
Now how can I get back that the type is String??
Regards
Brian

Hi,
Try using anytest.type().kind().value() -> should yield TCKind._tk_string. See the javadoc for more info.
I think that the only way to check types is by comparing the codes; as far as I know there is no easy way to get the equivalent Java Class object or so. But I could be wrong on that one.
Best,
Guy

As you already mention that is not resolved before the annotation processing stage
[ http://openjdk.java.net/groups/compiler/doc/compilation-overview/index.html]
So, you probably need to produce your own analysis code or better reuse the compiler's own code if that turns out to be easy (no clue). I reckon it is better if you avoid modifying the compiler itself as it will make much more difficult to maintain and deploy your (more than a) processor.
Sorry if you already tough about this.

How to Programmatically Set the limit (max, min input) of a control inside a cluster?

I want to programmatically set the limit (max, min input) of a control inside a cluster. (see attached VI).
The max, min value will be read from a file. The input of the control must be within the range defined by the max and min value.
Can anyone tell me how to do it?
Thanks a lot for your kind help.
Xiaogang

Accessing the properties of a cluster (or array) is not a trivial operation until you have done it once. It's a two step (at least) process : first, ask for a reference (array of...) to the objects contained in the cluster, then tell LV what kind of object you are adressing.

Getting the top & left of a textbox placed inside a table

hai brainees
i need a sampel code to get the top & left of a textbox placed inside a table so that i can display a dropdownlistbox ih that place.its very important.
Thanks
anieshuk

Thanks. I asked a friend and he told me about the %but I still had a problem. Your expression solved my problem
        private function placeTile(mouseX:int, mouseY:int, frame:uint):void {
            var tile:Tile = new Tile();
            tile.gotoAndStop(frame);
            tile.x = Math.floor(mouseX / tileSize) * tileSize;
            tile.y = Math.floor(mouseY / tileSize) * tileSize;
            stage.addChild(tile);
That way every tile is centered every 50 pixels

In Mail, how can I get the type face for messages to be seen?

By that, I mean when I open Mail and go to type an e mail message the type face is really quite small to the eye, yet it is set to be published as Tahoma 12. The only way I have found to enlarge it so that it can be read easily is to use Command and + or - as the case may be.
Is there some way that the New message window can have a viewing size that reflects what is the type face being used? Or do I hve to have the window open as full screen?
The same problem is there with new messages being received. The size in the message window is quite small and I can't be doing with manually enlarging it all the while.
Thanks
altv

No. Screen resolution has no effect on the size of text in the new message window. It looks as if Mr Apple has done it again and produced something that is missing. Simple logical items so that things can be adjusted simply and easily. One pace forward and fourteen backwards.
It would be nice if I could simply reinstall Mail on the principle that it is corrupt, but that can't be done or at least I can't see how it can be done with out reinstalling Mountain Lion again. I am certainly not going thru' that hoop again with one and half hours downloading it!
I suppose the next thing is to get another Mail programme, but what is a good simple one to use on an iMAC? Why do they have to make the things so difficult?

HTML Client: How to get the content/value of a custom control?

I made two Custom Controls named, "CustomControl_1" and "CustomControl_2".
In the render function of "CustomControl_1", how to access the value of "CustomControl_2"?
For example,
myapp.BrowseOrders.CustomControl_2_render = function (element, contentItem) {
$(element).text("Some Value");
myapp.BrowseOrders.CustomControl_1_render = function (element, contentItem) {
$(element).text( Value of CustomControl_2 ? );

I would recommend creating screen properties and binding the controls to those screen properties. Then you can easily get a reference to any value. See this article for an example of the process using custom controls:

Get the type of a Page Item

Hey guys,
i am working on an inDesign extension. i have a requirement to go through the document elements. i was able to get all pageItem objects on a doc page.
i am now trying to figure out what is the type of each pageItem so i am using the following code that i found in here:
http://cssdk.host.adobe.com/sdk/2.1/docs/WebHelp/app_notes/indesign_pa ge_items.htm
//Given a page item "myPageItem" of unknown type:
var myPageItemType:String = flash.utils.getQualifiedClassName(myPageItem);
this is supposed to give me for example: com.adobe.indesign::Rectangle
instead all items are returning: com.adobe.indesign::PageItem
any idea what i am doing wrong here?
Thank for the your help.
