GETTING STARTED

Hello folks, i'm a novice to Javacard. though i'm into a bit of java programming. what do i need to get started?

I suppose you need to read docs - Global Platform documentation ( can be found free on internet, visit http://www.globalplatform.org/), emv specifications, ISO7816 (some parts are free too).
Then you need JavaCardAPI and development environment. I use OberturCS for instance. There is Palmera SDK and others too. Of cource you need sample cards and reader. You will need some environment for sending APDU commands to the card (check the contents of JavaCard API, or Palmera SDK). You can write such script processor yourself.
Well, suppose these are the first steps, but the topic is wide and depends much on what is your interest in javacard development

  • How to post a XCelsius in the BPC Web Application Getting Started page

    Hi Experts,
    I'm new using BPC 7.5 on NetWeaver. When opening the Getting Started tab in the BPC Web Application there is a white page that I would want to fill with content. This content should be a XCelsius Dashboard linked to the Query or InfoCube on which I`m planning. Creating the XCelsius Dashboard is not the problem, but to insert it in the Getting Started panel of the BPC Web application. Has anyone an idea how to do it or how to proceed. Ideas or a little how-to would be perfect.
    Thanks very much in advanced,
    Àlex

    Hi.
    Try this...
    const string LIST_PAR_NAME = "lu";
    string listName = string.Empty;
    if (this.Request.Params.AllKeys.Contains(LIST_PAR_NAME))
    listName = this.Request.Params[LIST_PAR_NAME];
    else
    throw new ArgumentException("Par lu is not present.");
    SPList listExport = web.Lists[listName];
    However take a look at this
    http://zsvipullo.blogspot.it/2013/10/get-splist-from-internal-name.html?q=getlist
    to check how GetList method is faster than web.Lists[].

  • With Open ESB CD in hand, how do I get started?

    I spent time at the Open ESB booth at JavaOne 2007 talking with the Sun representatives and engineers about Open ESB.
    I'm glad I did, but I'm having a heck of a time getting started.
    I have all of the requirements set-up running on Solaris 10 development server.
    I've used the Service Oriented Architectures using BPEL from Java BluePrints, which really helped, but I feel I don't know enough yet to apply it towards real world projects yet.
    What other resources are recommened to learn more about SOA, BPEL on the JBI Framework?
    Thanks,

    Pinstriped_Dude: That's a very good point which I totally overlooked, thanks.
    I've been tasked to learn (not really tasked - I'm always happy to learn) about ESB, SOA and JBI - so far I'm taking baby steps and making progress.

  • Pages 2.0 will not get past the "getting started" screen

    i just updated pages to 2.0 on ipad 2 retina (ios 7.0.2) and now i cannot open pages, it will not get past the "getting started" screen
    has anyone else experienced something similar?

    Had the same problem. This sovled it for me:
    Just let it load.
    In Keynote, I didn't have so many documents, so the freeze didn't take too long- that's how I noticed it's just a freeze while loading.
    For pages it took much longer. You can also turn off iCloud in settings for Pages, Keynote, etc. open it, re-enable iCloud in settings app again and quick switch back to pages (double-click home button). It will freeze up again, but after a while after all documents have been pulled from iCloud, it will be back to normal.

  • When trying to work with Agilent 34401A multimeter (serial RS-232 connection), HP34401A Getting Started.vi gives always the message: "Error 1073807369 occurred at Old VISA Open ".

    Baud rate and parity are set correctly, RS-232 cable is also connected correctly. My QuickBasic program has no problems to read and write to the Multimeter. It is obviously a software problem: the same error is persistent if I disconnect RS-232 cable.
    I downloaded NI-VISA 2.6 for Windows 95/98/NT/ME/2000/XP frorm digital.ni.com and installed it. But it did not help.
    Thank you in advance

  • Cannot connect to GET STARTED page

    Hello,
    First off, I am sorry, I did a search and saw numerous posts on this issue, but about all of them either ended their replies after a user asked "Did you do this or that ?" or they just stopped posting... at most I saw some topics where it magically worked later on, but no real step-by-step instructions.
    So, the problem: I installed XE 11g, no apparent problems during install (no warnings so I assume everything is OK), tried the GET STARTED link, but it said it can't connect.

    So, can anyone tell me\help me on why that one isn't starting ? I reinstalled this 6 times and still can't figure out the problem... (as you saw, I even replaced the tns hostname with 127.0.0.1 out of paranoia). It's seriously driving me mad. Every topic I searched for (from the problem itself to even a step-by-step for dummies) shows an install, then the interface working... I see some questions regarding "I can't connect to..." but most are unanswered :(
    Thanks in advance!
    P.S. let me know if I forgot to mention anything relevant

    jgarry: I believe what you explained may be related to the fact some reported the DB doesn't work properly when the event log is full (I just emptied mine so it doesn't apply). Normally I disable it but without it started, the DB is not working properly (not that I can get it started anyway).
    There was a post on a site I found hinting at 3 things:
    1. ORACLE_HOME must be defined as an env-var
    2. ORACLE_SID must be defined as an env-var
    3. there might be a problem with spfile
    Regarding those:
    1. shouldn't the setup declare it automatically ? I don't have it declared, but I added it (no change)As Orafad pointed out, Windows is different. It does have a search hierarchy it follows to figure out what the environment should be. So first, unset what you set and go into a cmd window and:
    sqlplus sys as sysdba
    Edit: Oops, I meant
    sqlplus / as sysdba
    startup
    2. same as above, except I am not sure what SID to add so I didn't declare it ... The only 2 I have are PLSExtProc and CLRExtProc in tnsnames by default. I tried with each but the only thing that changes is instead of getting the shared memory realm error I get a TNS adapter error... trading one error for another is not funFor XE, the ORACLE_SID is XE (unless you do screwy things to change it). So now that I see you had some other db installed before, I suspect an environment collision. Delve into your registry and see what oracle definitions you have - this is a lot of work, things are spread around some, but searching for oracle is usually a good start. I'm not up on the 11.2 details (or others, really, I just have vague memories of seeing MOS notes that purported to explain clean up entirely, without truly doing so, and I avoid Windows as much as possible). I would uninstall XE, uninstall the other one, then search the registry for any leftover stuff, then install XE and see if it all magically works. But that is a fairly brain-dead way to deal with it.
    So that said, you can set up a little batch file to set your environment in a cmd window (specifically ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID), and go into sqlplus / as sysdba and give the startup command. If you get the memory realm error, you have one of those wrong, if you get the tnsnames errors you can fix those following the advice in Ed Steven's blog. You can run tnsping to see which tnsnames.ora you are using, if you use one (which is determined by an @ sign in your connection string, which you should not need to connect locally, but if you do, you need to have XE defined in the tnsnames.ora, and may need to set TNS_ADMIN to get the right one).
    Your tnsnames.ora should have an entry like this:
    XE =
      (DESCRIPTION =
        (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = Yourcomputer.yourdomian.whatever)(PORT = 1521))
        (CONNECT_DATA =
          (SERVER = DEDICATED)
          (SERVICE_NAME = XE)
      )You might want to search for any tnsname.ora on your computer, the default correct one would be: C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server\network\ADMIN\tnsnames.ora
    3. I don't have that file in the folder but I suspect it might be created on a first successful launch of the DBWithout an spfile you need to use a pfile, then create a pfile from spfile. But there should be one at C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server\dbs\SPFILEXE.ORA (if you used default installation).
    >
    Other than that I didn't find anything helpful in logs (or don't know where else to look), nor on sites.
    I did have WAMP installed at a point (uninstalled it) but if it were to conflict I guess SETUP would tell me (since the XE license doesn't let you use 2 DBs at the same time)Is that some mysql thing? That shouldn't interfere. It's only installing multiple Oracle products related some what to the Oracle database that can be a problem, and normally isn't with the more recent stuff.
    I swear to god this is killing my neurons :(When you find the solution, you will slap your forehead.

  • Trying to use a new, larger external hard drive for my Time Machine backup.  However, every time I start the backup, it gets started then fails.  And, I can't delete the few files that did save on the external.  Sort of a catch 22.  Any ideas?

    Trying to use a new, larger external hard drive for my Time Machine backup.  However, every time I start the backup, it gets started then fails.  And, I can't delete the few files that did save on the external.  Sort of a catch 22.  Any ideas?

    Is it a USB hard drive?  USB hard drives have the problem of not giving full speed if they are hooked up on the same bus as keyboards and mice.  Double check your profiler to make sure that is not a problem.  If it is Firewire, make sure there aren't other firewire devices in use at the same time.  I recommend not only keeping a Time Machine backup, but also a clone, and if you do use Time Machine, to make sure the Time Machine drive or partition is at least twice the size of the original drive.

  • So Hard to get started

    Hello all,
    I want to state somethings that I have found so confusing in getting started with Oracle Business Intelligence.
    Whenever someone attempts to get in the Oracle BI world, there seems to be a myriad of products, tools and suites that one may not really know where to start.
    Up till now, I have not been able to pick or find a resource on what is which. Sorry to compare products, I have been taken a look at Microsoft Database and its associated BI solutions, and indeed it was relatively much easier to say this does this. But for as long as a I have been in Oracle Database usage and putting my hand on work using its tools, I find it hard differentiating
    Oracle Business Intelligence Standard Edition from
    Oracle Business Intelligence Standard Edition One and also from
    Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition Plus from
    Oracle Essbase
    or differentiating
    Hyperion Enterprise from
    Oracle BI Applications
    and why I should not install tools like Oracle BI Publisher or Oracle Data Miner or Oracle Warehouse Builder (OWB) when I have any of the above installed.
    Thank God for Oracle 11g. The confusion is a lot reduced, because with 11g, almost everything seem to be in the right place.
    So, my request is that someone should please show me a reference that tell what is different from what with respect to the above mentioned BI products.
    Regards,
    Michael

    It's all on the Oracle web site, I think you need to do a bit of homework research before asking a question like this...
    OBISE = Old Oracle Discoverer.
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/bi/standard-edition.html
    OBISE One = Cut-down OBIEE version plus OWB.
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/bi/standard-edition-one.html
    OBIEE = OBIEE+ plus Hyperion Essbase See:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/bi/enterprise-edition.html
    Oracle Essbase = Proper OLAP cubes
    http://www.oracle.com/appserver/business-intelligence/essbase.html
    Oracle BI Applications = It's a bit pre-packaged BI Application (based on OBIEE) that's used to do BI on Oracle Apps
    http://www.oracle.com/appserver/business-intelligence/bi-applications.html
    Oracle BI Publisher = Pixel Perfect reports
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/xml-publisher/index.html
    Oracle Data Miner = Data mining, if you don't know what that is then you probably don't need it.
    OWB = ETL
    All in all I would say you are getting confused and you are mixing too many products in the same bag. Sure you could say it's "confusing" to have so many products. But if you were to go to the supermarket without knowing what to buy, wouldn't that be confusing as well? Rather than looking at "what's available" you should look at what sort of product you need and based on that search which products meet your needs. Or would you go to the supermarket and ask to see and understand what every product does before buying what you need?

  • Why does Firefox not acknowledge that I have Silverlight already installed. When trying to work with "Getting Started" in Windows 7, it keeps telling me I have to download Silverlight to view this information.

    I recently purchased a new computer with Windows 7 OS. When trying to learn the transition experience from Windows XP to this new OS version, I was presented with this problem of going around in circles.
    When trying to view "Discover Windows 7" via "Start>Getting Started>Discover Windows 7", a Microsoft website opens to; (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/help/videos/personalizing-your-pc). It tells me; To view this contents, please install Microsoft Silverlight. Once I install it and get back to this page, I get the same message. I can not view any of the help content before installing Microsoft Silverlight. So now it is a never ending "CIRCLE of LIGHT"! Is this a problem with my Firefox or with Windows Microsoft 7?

    I'm not seeing the Silverlight plugin in your More system details list, so Firefox doesn't find it if you have it.
    I assume that you also do not see it in Tools > Add-ons > Plugins ?

  • How can I use the NI PXI-6508 with Lab View 7? what are the first steps to get started??How can I use the channels with lab view 7????

    I have a 8 slot PXI system with 2 NI PXI 6508 and 1 DMM 4070 in it. I want to get started with programming the digital I/O cards (6508)! How can I use this cards with LabView 7?what is the best way to get started, or where can I get examples showing how to use the several channels?
    Thanks!
    Philipp

    Philipp,
    The best way to get started is to decide if you want to use traditional NI-DAQ or NI-DAQmx. Recently we released NI-DAQ 7.1 which provides NI-DAQmx support for the PXI-6508. In my opinion, NI-DAQmx is more efficient and much easier to use.
    To get started with examples, simply launch LabVIEW and go to Help>>Find Examples. Then expand Hardware Input and Output>>DAQmx and select the appropriate digital group for your application. This should help get you started.
    Please repost if you need addition assistance. Good luck with your application!

  • Got a Problem? How to Get Started

    Getting started on fixing your problem:
    Working with video editing on an NLE (Non Linear Editor) program can tax the most robust computers. Depending on many factors, this can be a daunting task, at best. Many of the components of one’s computer can be stressed, more than with almost any other operation, that it will ever perform.
    Getting help on the forum can seem almost as daunting, as the first thing that a poster is likely to encounter is a list of questions, before any answers. This is the natural flow, because people are trying to help remotely. They cannot come to your office and sit behind you to determine your computer system’s capabilities, and observe just what you are doing, when and how you are doing it. Do not be put off by these questions, as they are very necessary and will very likely give the respondents some clues on where to look for your problem.
    Problems can normally be broken down into these categories:
    1.) System
    2.) Assets (the Audio, Video and still images)
    3.) Project (how it is setup and with which Preset)
    4.) Workflow (what you are doing, and how you are doing it)
    If you prepare a checklist, before you post your problem, it will save everyone a great deal of time, and will likely yield your answer much more quickly. The more detail that you furnish, the fewer questions will remain, that have to be asked. Remember, you have to be the "eyes" for the others on the forum, if they are expected to help you. They could be thousands of mile away, in other time zones, and will not know about your system, your Assets, your Project or your workflow, until you tell them. Help them get started quickly, by telling them in your first post. Do your "homework," so they do not have to ask questions for the first five responses, and can start giving you answers much more quickly.
    System:
    Be very specific about your computer. Just saying that "I have a Dell" doesn’t tell them much of anything. List your CPU type and speed, i.e. Core2 Quad Q6700 2.3GHz. Same for your RAM, i.e. 4GB of DDS. Also, list your Video Card, type, connection and driver number and date. Same for your Audio System. Note: most of this data can be found in Control Panel>System>Hardware>Device Manager. Pointing people to a URL on your computer company’s Web site isn’t a bad idea, but giving the exact details of your system is far, far better. It is likely that that Web site will have the general configuration, and who knows if that is exactly what you bought. List it for them, so they do not have to go and guess, and write down the specs. of your system.
    One of the most important aspects of your system will be the I/O sub-system. What is that, you might ask? Well, it’s your HDD’s (Hard Disk Drives). The important info is how many physical HDD’s do you have. List their size, their speed, their connection, the amount of free, defragmented space and how they are allocated. This would look something like this: "3x 200GB SATA II. Drive C:\ OS, programs and Windows Virtual Memory with 185GB free, D:\ media with 120GB free, E:\ Project files, output and Scratch Disks with 150GB free." If you have any drive partitioned (not a good thing nowadays), let everyone know and give details. If you have a RAID, give full details on how it is managed, the type and how it is used in your system. [As an aside, most RAID’s should not really be considered for a system drive, unless one has built in redundancy in the RAID, i.e. 3, or more, physical disks. Remember, this info can be critical. If you have CD/DVD burners, list them and their connections. If you have external HDD’s, list them with the same details as for your internal HDD’s.
    Next, tell about your Windows Virtual Memory (Page File). How large is it, where is it located on your system and how is it managed, i.e. dynamically by Windows, or static? Again, this can be critical. For info, you will need to go to Control Panel>System>Advanced>Performance and look. In the Settings>Advanced, you should see things like Process Scheduling, Memory Usage and Virtual Memory. This is where you will find the answers. Note: depending on which OS one has, the exact location and syntax may differ.
    While we’re on the OS, list the exact OS that you have, i.e. Vista Ultimate 64-bit SP-2 with all updates and hot-fixes.
    What version of the NLE are you using and has it been updated, i.e. PE3.0.2.
    Finally, list any other programs, that might be in use, while you are editing, such as MSN Messaging, etc. These can be critical, even though you are basically editing video.
    Assets:
    Give full details on your Assets. Just saying "a bunch of .AVI’s" tells people nothing. Be very specific with the details. See this ARTICLE on what info to give, and how to obtain it. Same for your Audio and for your still images. Size in pixels, file type, etc., are very important for the stills, and file type. Sample-rate and sample size are important for the Audio.
    Project:
    How is your Project setup? Which Preset did you use? What is the Duration of your Timeline. This gives someone the "lay of the land," so to speak and is very important. Note: your Project Preset should match your Video Assets. You can always Export/Share to some other frame size, or format, but your Project should match your Video Assets.
    Workflow:
    How have you arranged your Assets on the Timeline allows someone to "see" your Project in their mind. Information such as one 00;10;00;00 AVI (remember, you will have furnished complete details on those AVI’s, or MPEG’s when you listed your Assets above) on Video Track 1 (VT1) with its Audio on Audio Track 1 (AT1). One AVI used as a PiP (Picture in Picture) on VT2 with its Audio on AT2. One MP3 soundtrack for the full Duration on Soundtrack and my Narration on the Narration Track. List any Transitions, or Effects used. If you have Titles, list them. If you have any Keyframing used, list where and what they control.
    List exactly what you are doing and to which Asset you are doing it, when your problem occurs. If you are doing something like Export/Share, list the full settings (Presets) used, and be sure to mention any other tasks being performed by your computer, while you are doing the Export/Share.
    If you have already done some trouble shooting, list what you have done and the complete results. Were there any error messages? If so, give the full description. To say, "I had error messages," tells people nothing. What exactly did they say?
    This information will help people get right to your problem and will get you up and running much more quickly.
    As an aside, think about the title of your post. Saying "Problem" is not good enough. Instead, something like "PE7 Fails on Share to MPEG-2" would be better. First, you are trying to let everyone know something about your Problem, so they will see it, and be interested in helping you. If you are having an Audio issue, mention "Audio" in the title, so the right people will find your post. Not everyone knows everything about all aspects of Video. You want the right people to see your post and to be working with you, to fix your problem. Also, later on, it is good to have a title that will be easily found by others, who may have the same exact problem. If you get an answer that works, please post back that success, so others, finding your post, will know what worked, and what did not. Note: do not put your entire post into the title. That is just tough to read and understand. Use a few words, but make them the right words.
