Getting Started (newbie, student)

I would like to get started learning the BI module but am a little unsure exactly which things I need installed. Of course, I already have the Enterprise Edition with OLAP option installed.
I am confused as to whether the BI package is separate and distinct from the application server or if BI requires an active application server instance in order to be installed.
Thx

BI requires an install of an application server. THe app servers comes in 3 flavors viz. Webcache and J2ee, Business Intelligence and Forms, AND Portal and Wireless. You should install the BI flavor.
Hope this helps.

J2ee..getting started [newbie]

I'm following a tutorial (http://java.sun.com/j2ee/tutorial/1_3-fcs/doc/GettingStarted2.html#67955), and, it reads that I have to set the following variables:
JAVA_HOME
     The location of the J2SE SDK installation
J2EE_HOME
     The location of the J2EE SDK installation
ANT_HOME
     The location of the ant installation
PATH
     Should include the bin directories of the J2EE SDK, J2SE, and ant installatio
I installed jdk 1.6 u10 and after a while I was prompted to install JavaFX 1.1 SDK.
1. Does the jdk include the sdk?
2. Is the default path (on Windows):
C:\Program Files (x86)\JavaFXjavafx-sdk1.1\ ?
3. Is it supported on Windows Server 2008?
4. What literature and tutorials (the easier the better) would you suggest, considering I know programming paradigms and the basics of programming languages?

1. Does the jdk include the sdk?No. But you probably downloaded a bundle that contains both. I know that a similar bundle was at the top of the SE downloads page so that's probably what you got.
2. Is the default path (on Windows):
C:\Program Files (x86)\JavaFXjavafx-sdk1.1\ ?Default for what? Installing the SDK? If that is your question then the default path is probably what will be automatically filled when you try to install the SDK.
3. Is it supported on Windows Server 2008?The FX SDK? Well first let's be sure that you want to install the FX SDK in the first place? Do you need it? I don't know if it works on WS 2008

Some Help to get started needed for a newbie

I am attempting to add some simple email functionality to a small utility
program I am writing in Delphi for my school. We have used Groupwise for
many years and I have programmed a bit in Delphi but mainly database work.
Can anyone tell me where to find some documentation that will help me to
get started in using the GW Tokens API with Delphi?
How do I install it?
Do I need a Type Library for it to use it effectively with Delphi?
Is there some sort of basic skeleton code that I can refer to?
I would greatly appreciate any help that anyone might offer here.
Thanks

It will be a long hard road but..
for VB (so you will need to translate for Delphi)
Add references to Groupwise.exe to your project and Groupware type library

Then this will create a new email and drop in a few addresses if supplied
(eg from your CRM)

Dim vCommander As Object
Dim rc As Long

Dim lsMsg As String
On Error GoTo Error_Trap
lsMsg = ""
If lsEmailAddress = "" Then
lsMsg = lsMsg & "Please supply a recipients email address" & vbCrLf
End If
If lsMsg > "" Then
lblProgress.Caption = lsMsg
MsgBox lsMsg
Exit Sub
End If
If lsDomain > "" Then
lsEmailAddress = lsEmailAddress & "@" & lsDomain
End If
Set vCommander = CreateObject("GroupwiseCommander")
DoEvents
lblProgress.Caption = "Create email"
rc = vCommander.Execute("NewMail()", sResult)
sEmailTo = lsEmailAddress
While sEmailTo > ""
nPtr = InStr(sEmailTo, ";")
If nPtr = 0 Then
sUserName = sEmailTo
sEmailTo = ""
Else
If nPtr > 1 Then
sUserName = left$(sEmailTo, nPtr - 1)
End If
If nPtr < Len(sEmailTo) Then
sEmailTo = Mid$(sEmailTo, nPtr + 1)
End If
End If
lblProgress.Caption = "Add " & sUserName
lsOperation = "TextSetTo(" & vbDoubleQuotes & sUserName &
vbDoubleQuotes & "; True) "
rc = vCommander.Execute(lsOperation, sResult)
If sResult > "" Then
MsgBox "Error adding " & sEmailTo & " ,because " & vbCrLf &
sResult
End If
Wend
lblProgress.Caption = ""
DoEvents
Exit_Proc:
Exit Sub
Error_Trap:
MsgBox "Error creating email " & vbCrLf & Err.Description
lblProgress.Caption = "Error: " & Err.Description

Newbie looking to get started in Mac programming

Hi,
I have a handful of ksh scripts written for Leopard, I would like to create an interface/wrapper in C++, ref existing system prefs, to bring everything together under a suite of commands and eventually rewrite the shell scripts into C++. Is there a preferred C++ application and help resources, samples, etc to get started?

On macintosh, the preferred language is Objective-C, and the preferred framework is Cocoa. The tools to develop in Objective-C/Cocoa (and also other languages) are installable using your Leopard install disk, or you can download them on the [ADC website|http://developer.apple.com>.
You also have the documentations that go with it, and a lot of courses about Cocoa and Objective-C programming.

I'm a Newbie - Hi!: what is the best way to get started?

Hi,
I'm retired but used to be a Senior Design Engineer with an aerospace components manufacturer. The questionnaire didn't ask if I was retired!
I have a basic working knowledge of computers and applications but I struggle with jargon, (i.e. I prefer the simple approach).
My copy of Photoshop Elements 12 arrived yesterday. I've just finished installing it!
The instructions were quite clear as far as the installation went but I got a bit lost when the booklet started with the "Create an Adobe ID"
It didn't seem to give any direction. Any way somehow I managed to get here in the end having registered my product (twice - because I didn't see any activity after I hit the button the first time!).
I own a Sony Alpha SLT A57 camera and also a Casio Exilim FH100 although the Sony is my weapon of choice for the most part.
I'm on a basic photography course which leads to an intermediate and then ultimately an advanced course. I also hope to follow on with courses that have been set up for Photoshop Elements too which are also available.
I will be feeling my way for a while yet and I would appreciate some help (which will be needed inevitably).
First of all, what is the best way for a guy with only basic skills to get started?
Is there a page I can go to for help from first principles?
I look forward to being a part of this community!

Help> Getting Started is a good starting point, as is Adobe TV - Quick Links to Elements Adobe TV Tutorials.

Need help getting started - I am a newbie and am royally confused

I have Crystal Reports XI and VB.Net 2005 with CR functionality built in. I created reports directly in CRXI and now need to be able to use them in .Net.
Here is where I get lost. When I created my RPT file it had me connect to a database (Access 2002) and then add a table and fields. It works great except now that I am porting to my .Net app the database it needs to connect to will always be changing (dynamic). The table and field names will always be the same. It is just the file name that changes, based on user inputs.
So are there any tutorials, literature, help that anyone can point me to so I can get on with my steep learning curve? I started programming in VB.net and developing CR's just a short time ago and would appreciate a 'dumbed' down explanation so I can get a handle on this.
Thanks for any help or advice offered.
Regards
TMA

Here are various resources for .NET development with Business Objects products.

Newbie here getting started

Hi everyone, I'm just getting started to record my piano pieces to my computer. I have an old Technics SX-PR700 digital ensemble. I want to record music from the piano to my macbook. Here i have some doubts.
I want to record good audio sound as well as able to save the music notation to my computer. So I would need a midi cable right? A midi cable is able to record what notes can be played, but does it able to play actual recorded audio sound from my piano on the midi notes that is displayed on the program Audacity or Garage Band?
If not, I would need a LINE IN cable and a MIDI to do both work..?

Ok thanks for the helpful reply....I'm still a bit of confuse..been to many stores today to look for MIDI to USB cable Most of them are out of stock. However some sales promoters mention that, the common way to get MIDI out to computer is through another device which is the Interface. So i suppose there are direct ways from MIDI to MAC without an Interface right?
I did a google search mention that Interface are used as electronic equipment to Communicate to laptops. So what makes MIDI to MAC without an Interface workable? Same goes to audio recording from piano to mac directly without any interface....
My Old Technics has a Floppy Drive that records MIDI, If i can use a Floppy to record MIDI...then i do not need any cables at all....just need an external floppy drive to my mac possible?

Problems getting started with templates

I am just getting started with the dreamweaver 30 day trial.
I am trying to create my first file. When I try to open a new
template file I get the message below-
"Dreamweaver stores templates in the root folder of a site,
but there are no sites defined. Please add a site"
What does this mean? How do I find the templates? I am a
total dreamweaver newbie trying to learn the program.
Thanks

It's not a problem with templates.
You have to create a site for your website - F1 will show you
how to do
that. Once you have a site created, you will be able to
create new template
files, and they can write themselves to the correct part of
the site.

Getting started question

I'm sure I'll have fewer questions as times moves on, but here is another newbie question.
I've gone through the initial getting started chapter on the 'Calculator' stateless session bean J2EE project.
At the step:
<i>Deploying and Running the Calculator Application</i>
I think I successfully deploy my EAR.
The page won't load in my browser.
I've tried many flavors of localhost, localhost.corp.adobe.com, AHAMILTO1-XP and AHAMILTO1-XP.corp.adobe.com to port 50418/Calculator/Calculator.jsp.
For example:
http://localhost:50418/Calculator/Calculator.jsp
Am I using the wrong port? Is the port 50418 not an http port? I guess I'm asking how do I determine my http port number? I also tried 50000.
I get the response during deployment:
<i>Jan 11, 2005 2:27:57 PM /userOut/deploy (com.sap.ide.eclipse.sdm.threading.DeployThreadManager) [Deploy Thread] INFO:
CalculatorEar.ear -> Successfully deployed file:/C:/DOCUME1/ahamilto/LOCALS1/Temp/temp54088CalculatorEar.ear
DEPLOYMENT ...
==> SDM host : AHAMILTO1-XP
==> SDM port : 50418
==> URL : file:/C:/DOCUME1/ahamilto/LOCALS1/Temp/temp54088CalculatorEar.ear
... FINISHED SUCCESSFULLY</i>

Hello,
1. Does your browser show the startpage of your local WAS if you try URL http://localhost:50000
2. Where does your port 50418 come from? It seams that you have several instances on your computer, maybe you should try http://localhost:50400/Calculator/Calculator.jsp to reach your application. XXX18 is normally the sdm port through which you deploy your application to j2ee engine.
Maybe that helps,

Getting Started on a podcatcher

Hello,
I am a computer science student, and I want to work on a project that I have been thinking about for awhile now on my break..
I want to write a java podcatching client....
I have found on sourceforge a c++ based client, that I am starting to dig through to get some ideas on how to get started...
This is my idea for my basic approach..
I want to go to the url and use a program (or class) such as wget for bash to get the webpage. I am planning on putting this into a stringbuffer...
then I will use string tokenizer and xml parser to get the data from within the podcast class....
class podcast
string name;
url podcast url;
string title;
*a reference to the file
bool download success
my question is 1) what do you think of this approach? obviously this is a very rough outline, but any constructive criticism of this outline would be helpful..
also Is there a class such as wget? I am wondering how to get the rss file into my program... also is stringbuffer going to fit my need to store this file ? or should i actually store the file as temprssfile and then work with that file ?
Thanks for any input...

Design? Well, you said something like "I want to build a hospital, I think I will put it in a building, how does that sound?" Sounds okay but you need a little more detail in your design.
The java.net.URL class is the one you're looking for.
I wouldn't store things in files, unless of course my design called for them to be stored in files. In which case I would. It depends.

Getting started porting Linux driver

Hello,
If this question has been posted somewhere else please point me in the right direction.
I'm new to solaris and my goal is to port a Linux driver (vmebus pci device on Redhat) to Solaris (X86 v5.11). The Linux driver is all written in straight C. I've installed Solaris Express Dev Edition 2/07. I see that gcc is there (under /usr/sfw/bin) but it seems like a bare-bones development environment (no enviroment variables set up , etc).
My question is is this the right set of development tools to proceed forward with or should I be downloading something else ? Is there some easier to use graphical 'IDE like' set of tools that is more appropriate for a Solaris newbie like me ? I know Forte is a commercial product, what is the best freeware for graphical C development ?
Regards,
Brent

Here's what I would do... go to this website and download an ISO of a live CD. You can burn it, stick it in your CD drive, and start your PC. It will boot to Linux without ever having to format anything, that way you can tinker around with how it feels. After you are happy with that, you can download and install a distro...
http://www.kubuntu.org/special-cds.php
As far as disrtos go, I would choose one of the following for a first time user:
Kubuntu (because it's easy to get started) http://www.kubuntu.org/ or
Fedora Core 5 (because it's easy to download and add packages -- most in the Add/Remove Programs app) http://fedora.redhat.com/
Both of these distributions have a lot of help and howtos when it comes to Oracle as well. If you don't like KDE (I do but that's personal preference) then FC5 gives you the option of Gnome or KDE and Ubuntu is the non-KDE version of Kubuntu.

Getting started with Java and XML

Hi,
Although I am pretty familiar with Java, I am a total newbie with using it to parse XML. I have been reading quite a few tutorials so am getting a good understanding of it and am thinking of using the DOM model for my purposes.
What I haven't been able to find, however, is how I can actually get started with this. I have tried compiling a few examples and have been getting errors such as:
xmltest.java package javax.xml.parsers does not exist
xmltest.java package org.w3c.dom does not existetc etc...
It looks like these packages don't come with J2SE. Can anyone confirm this? Do I need to download and install the Java Web Services Developer Pack to solve this problem?
Finally, I know I will need an XML parser but have read that JDK 1.4 has it's own parser (Crimson). Is this adequate for parsing XML files or will I also need a parser such as Xerces?
Thanks so much for any help!

Hi DrClap,
Thanks for the reply. I have JDK 1.4.1_02 installed on my server but the following error keeps coming up when I try to run my example:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/w3c/dom/NodeAre there any further packages I need to download in order to run Java with XML? I have read some people install JAXP and XERCES... are these necessary for parsing an XML document or should J2SE 1.4.1 be sufficient?
Thanks for your help!

I have a looked on ATGInstallationGuide.pdf, which url it shows is not working http://www.atg.com/eclipse. I think the url for ATG plugin has been changed now but I didn't found that url on google. Can you please help me to get correct url.
