Getting Data From Running EXE

Hello,
First off, I am an amateur programmer. I have been programming for a few years now, but because I'm a meteorology major, and not a CSCI major, I haven't had too much time. Tying in the fields of meteorology and computer science, I have made a few programs about the weather.
There is a radar program, GRLevelX, which displays radar information, much like on television. With hi-tech abilities with it. One of the capabilities is placefiles, which can be added to the program. So what I am trying to do is make a placefile which shows an aerial map from Google Maps, which can be placed under the radar. When I get down to it, I have the code to grab the map and put it int he placefile format, however, the only thing I cant get is the coordinates of the visible window of the program.
Is there any way I can tap into a running EXE, get variables being used by that program, and have them returned to the Java file I have created so far? I have spoke wiht one other person about this and he said I would need to call Win32 API and get the window handler. Again, I'm very new to this, so that si kind of confusing. But I try to challenge myself with these programs, trying to learn the language a bit more. I have searched through many forums trying to look how to do this, and I can't seem to find anything. Any ideas? Thank you very much! I appreciate any help anyone can provide.
Chris

Thanks for the quick replies. After some looking at the program and the first response, it looks like Java isn't the way to go. At least I have a good basis on how to do the main stuff, in java, just have to see if I can hand that off to someone familiar with the program to write in a different language. As for the second reply, I can see what you mean, not wanting to go into any secondary program. Especially if I don't know how its written and whatnot. There are a number of other placefiles, which do go into this program and grab data such as coordinates, and return their values. I will have to see what language they use (Visual Basic, i think?). Thanks again for the replies!

Process Class:How to give and get data from an exe file continuously???

hi,,,
I am trying to run an executable file from my program to give it input and read its output....
And i am having problems...
The exe file takes one input and appends to it "1235" (ITS A TEST CASE).
When it is only for a single input , the program rums perfectly.. but when it is within a loop it does not
Pls help
Here is the code for that EXE file. (its in C)
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
char a[10];
int i;
int k=1235;
while(1){
scanf("%s",a);
if(a[0]=='s')
break;
printf("%s%d\n",a,k);
}Note that when i remove the loop here, my code is able to get and give it data.
My JAVA program::
import java.io.*;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        try {
      String line;
      Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec
        ("C:\\users\\Untitled3.exe");
       BufferedWriter   out=new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(p.getOutputStream()));
          out.write("dfgsfs\n");
          time= java.lang.System.nanoTime();
          out.flush();
      BufferedReader input =new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
     while ((line = input.readLine()) != null) {
        System.out.println(input.readLine());
      input.close();
    catch (Exception err) {
      err.printStackTrace();
}PLS HELP

I see a problem in your C code. You're not flushing stdout after you printf and that usually means java is not seeing whats your C program is printing.
removing the loop probably works because stdout is being flushed right before exit.
I used a perl script to test your stuff and found that flushing made the trick
#!/usr/bin/perl
open(OUTFILE,">>./output.txt");
$| = 1;
while (<STDIN>) {
    if (m/.*error.*/) {
        print STDERR $_;
    } else {
        print STDOUT $_;
    print OUTFILE $_;
    if (m/exit/) {
        last;
close(OUTFILE);
exit;notice "$| =1;" that autoflushes in perl (just in case you were wondering where my flush call went)

Funds management cube getting data from 4 ods, data not seen in cube

Hello all,
I am working on funds management cubes (0PU_C02 and 0PU_C03). These two cubes get data from like 7 or 8 ODS. Can someone tell me which are the ODS which feed to respective cubes. I have the mappings done but i am getting very confused.
In the ods 0PU_O44 there is RLDNR for Ledger and I can see that data in ODS but when i run load to cube I dont see the ledger data (its direct mapping there are no routines or rules).
Is there any sequence with wihic we have to load the data?
Thanks

Powerpivot Error on Refresh -- "We couldn't get data from the data model..."

I'm using Excel 2013 and Windows 8.1. I have a spreadsheet I've been using for over a year, and I've just started getting this error message when I try to refresh the data.
"We couldn't get data from the Data Model. Here's the error message we got:
The 'attributeRelationship' with 'AttributeID' - 'PuttDistCat9' doesn't exist in the collection"
Any idea how I can fix this problem? I haven't changed anything related to that particular attribute. All the data is contained in separate sheets in the workbook, so there are no external sources of data.
Thanks.
Jean

Thanks for all the suggestions.
I found a slightly older version of the spreadsheet that still refreshes properly, so I don't think I have any issues with the version of Excel or Power Query. (I've had this same error before, and I believe I applied the hotfix at that time.)
I think this problem started after I updated a number of the date filters in the pivot tables. I haven't made any changes to the data model, and the only updates I've made were to add data (which I do all the time), and to change the date filters on
the pivot tables.
As suggested, I added a new pivot table querying one table (the table with the attribute that shows up in the error message), and it worked fine. I can also refresh this pivot table.
Then I tried adding a pivot table which went against several tables in the data model (including the table in question). The pivot table seemed to return that data properly. However, when I tried to refresh it, I got the same error message ("we
couldn't get data from the data model...").
Dany also suggested running the queries one at a time to see which one is in error. Without checking all the pivot tables, it appears that any which use the table "HolePlayedStrokes" generate the error (this is the table with the attribute
mentioned in the error message). Pivot Tables without that particular table seem to refresh OK. Unfortunately, that is the main table in my data model, so most of the pivot tables use it.
Any other suggestions? I'd be happy to send a copy of the spreadsheet.
Thanks for all the help.

OC4J - How to get data from large table (more than 9 million rows) by EJB?

SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS
O I use Jdeveloper to create EJB that has finder methods to get data from a big table (more S than 9 million rows). Deploy is OK but when run client program I always get timeout
O error or not enough memory error,
S Can any one help me?
O urgent
SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS

Your problem may be that you are simply trying to load so many objects (found by your finder) that you are exceeding available memory. For example if each object is 100 bytes and you try to load 1,000,000 objects thats 100Mb of memory gone.
You could try increasing the amount of memory available to OC4J with the appropriate argument on the command line (or in the 10gAS console). For example to make 1Gb available to OC4J you would add the argument:
-Xmx1000m
Of course you need have this available as hard memory on your server or you will incur serious swapping.

Get data from Sharepoint site in different farm using webservice, and current site using claims mode authentication.

Hi ,
I have a site that runs on Claims Mode ( NTLM) . That site has a web part that needs to show the data from any sharepoint farm, SharePoitn 2010 , or 2007 or 2003.
I am getting 401 unauthorized when I try to get data from webservice running in sharePoint context.
But when I run the same code in Windows Console application then it is giving no error.
What I doubt is that this issue is due to the reason that I have set
claims mode authentication.
Because same code is running in different farm in a site that is configured using windows authentication.

So generally speaking, you're talking about a VERY long running topic of authentication methods... and generally speaking, in the world of Windows, the only long running authentication options have been:
- NTLM (limited to one hop)
- Kerberos (unlimited hops)
- Application level authentication (ex: SQL auth, also, no hops)
Recently, Microsoft has been investing in Claims Based Auth... and I fully expect claims to start working their way into other systems (previously starting to work into Windows via the CardSpace technology, but also in other ways such as Win8's ability to
log in with a LiveID)... but building a new authentication method into ALL applications is a VERY long process, and the complexity of claims adds a LOT of consideration (claims from the same AD can look VERY different depending on the STS, so lots of questions
around things like bridging claims).
So as far your SP auth needs...
IF both applications are CLAIMS AWARE, then you MAY be able to use claims (which support unlimited hops)... but that's just not very likely yet (and will probably take another 5-10 years to be available across the entire enterprise)... otherwise, KERBEROS
Outside of the Microsoft world... KERBEROS is open spec, so is supported by other systems (such as authenticating to linux)... claims based auth is also open spec, but again, still new... there are a few other options (LDAP, etc), but none that are native
to Windows (so you rely on things like third party auth modules for Windows, which Novell has done for DECADES with NDS and eDir)
And again, SharePoint can convert claims to Kerberos using the C2WTS... which MS uses internally for things Excel Services connecting to a backend SQL server... but it DOES require the Kerb and C2WTS configuration.
if you're having issues using Kerb auth... then it sounds like Kerb isn't configured correctly... and Kerb is a PAIN to configure (whitepaper for SP Kerb is ~100 pages long)... IIS (and SharePoint) also has the added benefit of failing over to NTLM if Kerb
fails (and you shouldn't disable this behavior, since it'll break other settings elsewhere)

Sending and getting data from external file.

I'm running it in actionscript 1 and 2 since 3 wouldn't work when getting data from external media. I'm trying to find out how to post data to a PHP file and getting from that file I'm trying to make the flash for something that works like a game but differently. Since I just found out how to make the HTML stuff show up but a lot of times, some of my text will not appear so I don't know what's going on.
Does anyone know how to send and get data both at the same time from a sample file?
The sample file is example.php
It has to sent information like ID and NAME
and it has to get information like Description and userID

The tutorial I pointed you to does provide the visuals you requested, both the AS code and sample PHP code, so I can't see where your learning by visuals aspect holds up.... your approach sounds more like you want someone to hand you a tailored solution that you won't need to learn from. Visuals require reading and doing. If that fails to get absorbed or you couldn't understand/revise it, what could anyone else prepare for you that would work better?
I did the tutorial and everything but every time I press the button or even load it, it keeps on saying undefined. I like the have a sample FLA file so I can figure things out. I did everything from the site but it won't work out for me.
I did step 5 too because it was almost all that I was looking for but it won't even work. keeps on saying undefined. I would show you but webcam max won't work and I can't show you an example.

Getting data from table BSEG taking too long ... any solutions.

Hello people I am currently trying to get data from table BSEG for one particular G/L Account Number With restrictions using For All Entries.
The problem is that even with such tight restrictions its causing my report program to run way too slow. I put an option where you dont have to access table bseg. And it runs just fine. (all of this is done during PRD Server).
My question is
1.) How come BSEG seems to make the report slow, even though I put some tight restrictions. <b>Im using For All Entries where Zuonr eq i_tab-zuonr</b>it seems to work fine in DEV and <b>hkont EQ '0020103101'</b>(Customer Deposits).
2.) Is there a way for me to do the same thing as what I mentioned in #1 but only much faster.
Thanks guys and take care

Hi
It should be better you don't read BSEG table if you haven't the keys BUKRS and BELNR, because the reading could take many times if there are many hits.
If you want to find out the records of G/L Account it's better read the index table BSIS (for open items) and BSAS (for cleared items), here the field HKONT is a key (and ZUONR too). So you can improve the performance:
DATA: T_ITEMS LIKE STANDARD TABLE OF BSIS.
SELECT * FROM BSAS INTO TABLE T_ITEMS
FOR ALL ENTRIES I_ITAB WHERE BUKRS = <BUKRS>
                           AND HKONT = '0020103101'
                           AND ZUONR = I_ITAB-ZUONR.
SELECT * FROM BSIS APPENDING TABLE T_ITEMS
FOR ALL ENTRIES I_ITAB WHERE BUKRS = <BUKRS>
                           AND HKONT = '0020103101'
                           AND ZUONR = I_ITAB-ZUONR.
Remember every kind of item has an own index tables:
- BSIS/BSAS for G/L Account
- BSIK/BSAK for Vendor
- BSID/BSAD for Customer
These table have the same informations you can find out from BSEG and BKPF.

Get data from two databases?

Hello all,
Do anyone know if it's posible to get data from two databases while I'm running SBO in one of them? I need this because our client wants to be able to print reports with all the information stored in both companies. I searched this forum trying to find if this is possible but I did't find any information about this.
Can someone help me?
Thanks and regards,
Mariana Mazzero

Hi Mariana,
What you can do is use two company objects to retrieve the data. As far as I know you're not restricted to one company connection.
You can also just use a standard read only connection (like ADO/ODBC) to retrieve the data for the reports.
Hope it helps,
Adele

Can we get data from business views in CR 2008/XI?

Hi All,
Can we get data from business views in CR 2008/XI?
If its possible, pls let us know how to get connect with Business View in both of these versions and what is the tool that we have to use to create Business Views.
Thank you,
Krishna Pingali

Hi Krishna,
Crystal Reports/BusinessObjects Enterprise ( BOE ) Business Views can only be created using the BV build which comes with BOE and installed using the Work Station installer for BOE. for both XI and 2008.
You cannot mix these two versions on the same PC not can one talk to the other, the BV designer must match the same version as BOE. XI ( version 11.0 ) is no longer available but if you mean XI R2 ( version 11.5 ) then it still is.
It's not completely clear which Business View you are referring to? BOE has a Business View Designer so not sure if this is just a naming problem or not? If you are referring to the BOE Business View Designer then the above is true. If your reference is about some other BV designer or data source then you need to clarify.
Contact our Sales department for pricing and availability.
Thank you

How to get data from hard drive in dead iMac?

I have an old slot-loading iMac (350Mhz G3 blueberry) that just died, probably a dead power supply or something. Won't turn on at all. I don't care about restoring it, I just want to take the hard drive out and grab data from it. I've found instructions for removing the HD ... but any tips on the best/cheapest way to hook it up to get data from it? It's EIDE I believe from what I've read so far. Thanks for any help.

Hey Richard.....Thanks for the reply to my question about my wife's dead iMac.....
Her iMac had been acting up lately, mostly to do with her Outlook Express freezing up in OS9. I dunno if OS9 was freezing or if the application was failing. Regardless, I would have to quit OS9, restart Outlook which at the same time restarted OS9. All would be fine for a while, a day or two and then the scene would repeat itself. But I think that issue is separate from the iMac being "dead". Often we have power outages in the area, more than we should. I had the iMac plugged into a battery backup, some APS product I think it is. I believe it is only good for less than an hour as we have other devices drawing on it too. Most of our power outages are of short duration, just enough to be aggravating, sometimes having to reset clocks, etc...And a couple times, I would have to reset the time and date on the iMac so this told me that the PRAM battery was below minimum voltage. But the iMac would ALWAYS restart, even with the low battery. But the most recent outage, about one hour duration, did in the iMac, somehow or other. I do believe the battery backup basically fully discharged. So I removed the battery, could not find a new battery locally so I drove to the big city and paid the local Apple service dealer a visit. I got ripped big time price wise, embarrassed to say. So I get home, put the battery in the holder, depressed the CMU reset, the powerbutton illuminated as did a green LED by the memory modules for less than three seconds and then quit. I also heard the HD trying to spin up and a high voltage THUMP which I assume is the CRT trying to ignite. If I unplugged the iMac, removed the battery, plug in the power again and hit the power button, the iMac would repeat the same short on period and then quit. So it did not seem to make any difference if there was a battery in place. I read somewhere to pull the battery, pull the AC cord, hold down the power button to dump any current (?) and let the unit sit for 24hrs. After that length of time, I was supposed to replace the battery, depress the CMU reset, wait ten seconds and then feed it AC. Well, when I pressed the power button, I heard life for maybe five seconds, maybe a second longer, then a beep and then it shut down. I pulled the AC cord, pulled the battery, re-inserted the battery, depressed the CMU reset, waited a few seconds, plugged in the AC cord, depressed the power button and I am back at the under three seconds of "power-up" and then nothing, dead, no beep, nothing. I think maybe it is a waste of time trying to mess with this unit, looking for a newer iMac on eBay, the snowball series with the 17" LCD, might be time better spent. Hate throwing stuff away, that's why I am up to my ears in junk, maybe u know that scenario. The wife likes my 19" ACER LCD screen, hooked up to this old dual 800mhz, though she dislikes the noise and the tower. But we both agree the large LCD screen is much easier on our aging eyes than the old iMac CRT. Anyway, I appreciate your help, always GREAT to correspond with an Apple fan.....John Bauer

Get date from Oracle when local time zone is different from Oracle time zon

Hi!
Local machine time zone= +2
Oracle time zone= +1
I set date to Oracle using java.sql.Date.
From application I save date at 00:30 clock and send e.g. 28.06.2002, but in Oracle date is save as 27.06.2002 01:00 (hour=01 , I suppose that is because java.sql.Date hasn't time the Oracle set it time = time zone=+1) And when I get date from Oracle I get incorrect date. In SQL I don't use date masks. Maybe solution is to use java.sql.Timestamp object (when save date to Oracle) instead of java.sql.Date?
But if I save date at e.g. 01:00 clock and send e.g. 28:06.2002 in Oracle, date is save as 28.06.2002 01:00 and when I read from Oracle I get correct date.
Thank you.

Hi!
Local machine time zone= +2

I set date to Oracle using java.sql.Date.
From application I save date at 00:30 clock and send
e.g. 28.06.2002, but in Oracle date is save as
27.06.2002 01:00 (hour=01 , I suppose that is because
java.sql.Date hasn't time the Oracle set it time =
time zone=+1) Presumably you are using setTimestamp() to store the value. If you are explicitly using a varchar (string) then you will have to correct the timezone your self.
And when I get date from Oracle I get
incorrect date. In SQL I don't use date masks. Maybe
solution is to use java.sql.Timestamp object (when
save date to Oracle) instead of java.sql.Date?The method setDate/getDate store a 'date' which is not the same as a 'date and time' for which setTimestamp/getTimestamp are used.
But if I save date at e.g. 01:00 clock and send e.g.
28:06.2002 in Oracle, date is save as 28.06.2002

Get date from Calendar Promt

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to get date from Calendar Prompt when operator is "greater then or equal to". In this setting I can not set presentation variable for prompt, why? There is other way to get selected date?
Thanks in advance for any suggestion

Regards,
EskThe reason the Set Variable piece disappears is because a presentation variable cannot contain multiple values. If you want to perform a calculation on a date to filter your report, do this:
1) Keep the Operator as "is equal to/is in."
2) Now set your PV to what you want.
3) In your report, build a CASE statement or use the TIMESTAMPADD function to make whatever calculation you want.
Example: Let's suppose you wanted to filter your report for all Sales Dates "greater than or equal to" the prompt selection. You would set the date prompt to "equal" a date a user selects and then save it to your Presentation Variable, say pv_SalesDate.
Now in your report on your Sales Date column, put a filter like this:
tablename."Sales Date" >= '@{pv_SalesDate}'
This will achieve what you are looking for.
