Help with XQuery in OSB

Hi!
I'm having trouble trying to build an XQuery expression in OSB. I defined a "do" action where I iterate over elements of XML. There I defined an assign action to get each Country Name element using expression "$query/Countryl[$index]/Name/text()" where $query contains following XML document and $index contains current index for each do iteration.
<Countries>
<Country>
<Name>France</Name>
</Country>
<Country>
<Name>UK</Name>
</Country>
</Countries>
The problem is I'm getting same "France" value as expression result for every iteration. If I replace query with "$query/Countryl[1]/Name/text()" or "$query/Countryl[2]/Name/text()" then I get correct "France" and "UK" values.
Could anyone give me any advice?
Thank you in advance.

I resolved it with $query/Countryl[xs:integer($index)]/Name/text()
Thank you.

Need help with XQuery

I have 2 xml documents Team and Player
Here is how they look like
team.xml
<Teams>
<Team>
<Lost>59</Lost>
<Name>NewYork</Name>
<Won>103</Won>
</Team>
<Team>
</Team>
<Teams>
player.xml
<Players>
<Player>
<Age>24</Age>
<Team>NewYork</Team>
<BOB>67</BOB>
<SOT>265</SOT>
<IPT>229.3</IPT>
</Player>
<Player>
</Player>
<Players>I want to write a xquery to dsiplay for each team; the number of good* players, the avg age of good players, the number of total players and avg age of total players.
The criteria for a good player is (BOB + SOT) / IPT < 0.91.
This what I tried
for $x in distinct-values (doc("team.xml")/Teams/Team/Team)
let $y:= doc("player.xml")/Players/Player[Team=$x]
return
<Team>
     <Team_Name>{data($x)}</Team_Name>
     <Total_players>{count($y)}</Total_players>
     <Average_Age>{avg($y/Age)}</Average_Age>
</Team>Using this I get the the number of total players and avg age of total players. However, i'm not sure how I can modify this to return the information about good players as well.
Can someone please help me with this.
Thanks.

Try something like this
xquery version "1.0";
<Table>
for $x in distinct-values (doc("team.xml")/Teams/Team/Name)
     let $y:= doc("player.xml")/Players/Player[Team=$x]
     let $z:= $y[(BOB + SOT) div IPT < 0.91]
     return
     <Team>
          <Team_Name>{data($x)}</Team_Name>
          <Total_players>{count($y)}</Total_players>
          <Good_players>{count($z)}</Good_players>
          <Average_Age>{avg($y/Age)}</Average_Age>
          {for $p in $y
          return
               <PlayerRating>
                    {$p/Age}
                    <GoodPlayer>{$p/BOB + $p/SOT div $p/IPT lt 0.91}
                    </GoodPlayer>
                    <PlayerScore>
                    {$p/BOB + $p/SOT div $p/IPT}
                    </PlayerScore>
               </PlayerRating>
     </Team>

Need help with Xquery Syntax.

Hi there,
I am using a Berkeley XML DB and I have a xquery which I need to execute in a particular format. I have the following xquery:
for $a in collection("test.dbxml")/Bookstore/Book where $a/book_ID/text() eq "6" return $a/book_ID/text()
This xquery runs fine and I have the end result to be 6.
I need the same result to be specified in a XML TAG like <order_ID> 6 </order_ID> for which I have the following xquery:
for $a in collection"test.dbxml")/Bookstore/Book where $a/book_ID/text() eq "6" return <order_ID>$a/book_ID/text()</order_ID>
This xquery runs but return me back with the string "<order_ID>$a/book_ID/text()</order_ID>".
Can you please help me to correct the above output to result in "<order_ID> 6 </order_ID>"
Thanks.

Try
for $a in collection("test.dbxml")/Bookstore/Book
where $a/book_ID/text() eq "6"
return <order_ID>{$a/book_ID/text()}</order_ID>Lauren Foutz

Need help with Berkeley XML DB Performance

We need help with maximizing performance of our use of Berkeley XML DB. I am filling most of the 29 part question as listed by Oracle's BDB team.
Berkeley DB XML Performance Questionnaire
1. Describe the Performance area that you are measuring? What is the
current performance? What are your performance goals you hope to
achieve?
We are measuring the performance while loading a document during
web application startup. It is currently taking 10-12 seconds when
only one user is on the system. We are trying to do some testing to
get the load time when several users are on the system.
We would like the load time to be 5 seconds or less.
2. What Berkeley DB XML Version? Any optional configuration flags
specified? Are you running with any special patches? Please specify?
dbxml 2.4.13. No special patches.
3. What Berkeley DB Version? Any optional configuration flags
specified? Are you running with any special patches? Please Specify.
bdb 4.6.21. No special patches.
4. Processor name, speed and chipset?
Intel Xeon CPU 5150 2.66GHz
5. Operating System and Version?
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Relase 4 Update 6
6. Disk Drive Type and speed?
Don't have that information
7. File System Type? (such as EXT2, NTFS, Reiser)
EXT3
8. Physical Memory Available?
4GB
9. Are you using Replication (HA) with Berkeley DB XML? If so, please
describe the network you are using, and the number of Replica’s.
No
10. Are you using a Remote Filesystem (NFS) ? If so, for which
Berkeley DB XML/DB files?
No
11. What type of mutexes do you have configured? Did you specify
–with-mutex=? Specify what you find inn your config.log, search
for db_cv_mutex?
None. Did not specify -with-mutex during bdb compilation
12. Which API are you using (C++, Java, Perl, PHP, Python, other) ?
Which compiler and version?
Java 1.5
13. If you are using an Application Server or Web Server, please
provide the name and version?
Oracle Appication Server 10.1.3.4.0
14. Please provide your exact Environment Configuration Flags (include
anything specified in you DB_CONFIG file)
Default.
15. Please provide your Container Configuration Flags?
final EnvironmentConfig envConf = new EnvironmentConfig();
envConf.setAllowCreate(true); // If the environment does not
// exist, create it.
envConf.setInitializeCache(true); // Turn on the shared memory
// region.
envConf.setInitializeLocking(true); // Turn on the locking subsystem.
envConf.setInitializeLogging(true); // Turn on the logging subsystem.
envConf.setTransactional(true); // Turn on the transactional
// subsystem.
envConf.setLockDetectMode(LockDetectMode.MINWRITE);
envConf.setThreaded(true);
envConf.setErrorStream(System.err);
envConf.setCacheSize(1024*1024*64);
envConf.setMaxLockers(2000);
envConf.setMaxLocks(2000);
envConf.setMaxLockObjects(2000);
envConf.setTxnMaxActive(200);
envConf.setTxnWriteNoSync(true);
envConf.setMaxMutexes(40000);
16. How many XML Containers do you have? For each one please specify:
One.
1. The Container Configuration Flags
          XmlContainerConfig xmlContainerConfig = new XmlContainerConfig();
          xmlContainerConfig.setTransactional(true);
xmlContainerConfig.setIndexNodes(true);
xmlContainerConfig.setReadUncommitted(true);
2. How many documents?
Everytime the user logs in, the current xml document is loaded from
a oracle database table and put it in the Berkeley XML DB.
The documents get deleted from XML DB when the Oracle application
server container is stopped.
The number of documents should start with zero initially and it
will grow with every login.
3. What type (node or wholedoc)?
Node
4. Please indicate the minimum, maximum and average size of
documents?
The minimum is about 2MB and the maximum could 20MB. The average
mostly about 5MB.
5. Are you using document data? If so please describe how?
We are using document data only to save changes made
to the application data in a web application. The final save goes
to the relational database. Berkeley XML DB is just used to store
temporary data since going to the relational database for each change
will cause severe performance issues.
17. Please describe the shape of one of your typical documents? Please
do this by sending us a skeleton XML document.
Due to the sensitive nature of the data, I can provide XML schema instead.
18. What is the rate of document insertion/update required or
expected? Are you doing partial node updates (via XmlModify) or
replacing the document?
The document is inserted during user login. Any change made to the application
data grid or other data components gets saved in Berkeley DB. We also have
an automatic save every two minutes. The final save from the application
gets saved in a relational database.
19. What is the query rate required/expected?
Users will not be entering data rapidly. There will be lot of think time
before the users enter/modify data in the web application. This is a pilot
project but when we go live with this application, we will expect 25 users
at the same time.
20. XQuery -- supply some sample queries
1. Please provide the Query Plan
2. Are you using DBXML_INDEX_NODES?
Yes.
3. Display the indices you have defined for the specific query.
     XmlIndexSpecification spec = container.getIndexSpecification();
     // ids
     spec.addIndex("", "id", XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_NODE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ATTRIBUTE | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_EQUALITY, XmlValue.STRING);
     spec.addIndex("", "idref", XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_NODE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ATTRIBUTE | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_EQUALITY, XmlValue.STRING);
     // index to cover AttributeValue/Description
     spec.addIndex("", "Description", XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_EDGE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ELEMENT | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_SUBSTRING, XmlValue.STRING);
     // cover AttributeValue/@value
     spec.addIndex("", "value", XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_EDGE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ATTRIBUTE | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_EQUALITY, XmlValue.STRING);
     // item attribute values
     spec.addIndex("", "type", XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_EDGE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ATTRIBUTE | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_EQUALITY, XmlValue.STRING);
     // default index
     spec.addDefaultIndex(XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_NODE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ELEMENT | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_EQUALITY, XmlValue.STRING);
     spec.addDefaultIndex(XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_NODE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ATTRIBUTE | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_EQUALITY, XmlValue.STRING);
     // save the spec to the container
     XmlUpdateContext uc = xmlManager.createUpdateContext();
     container.setIndexSpecification(spec, uc);
4. If this is a large query, please consider sending a smaller
query (and query plan) that demonstrates the problem.
21. Are you running with Transactions? If so please provide any
transactions flags you specify with any API calls.
Yes. READ_UNCOMMITED in some and READ_COMMITTED in other transactions.
22. If your application is transactional, are your log files stored on
the same disk as your containers/databases?
Yes.
23. Do you use AUTO_COMMIT?
     No.
24. Please list any non-transactional operations performed?
No.
25. How many threads of control are running? How many threads in read
only mode? How many threads are updating?
We use Berkeley XML DB within the context of a struts web application.
Each user logged into the web application will be running a bdb transactoin
within the context of a struts action thread.
26. Please include a paragraph describing the performance measurements
you have made. Please specifically list any Berkeley DB operations
where the performance is currently insufficient.
We are clocking 10-12 seconds of loading a document from dbd when
five users are on the system.
getContainer().getDocument(documentName);
27. What performance level do you hope to achieve?
We would like to get less than 5 seconds when 25 users are on the system.
28. Please send us the output of the following db_stat utility commands
after your application has been running under "normal" load for some
period of time:
% db_stat -h database environment -c
% db_stat -h database environment -l
% db_stat -h database environment -m
% db_stat -h database environment -r
% db_stat -h database environment -t
(These commands require the db_stat utility access a shared database
environment. If your application has a private environment, please
remove the DB_PRIVATE flag used when the environment is created, so
you can obtain these measurements. If removing the DB_PRIVATE flag
is not possible, let us know and we can discuss alternatives with
you.)
If your application has periods of "good" and "bad" performance,
please run the above list of commands several times, during both
good and bad periods, and additionally specify the -Z flags (so
the output of each command isn't cumulative).
When possible, please run basic system performance reporting tools
during the time you are measuring the application's performance.
For example, on UNIX systems, the vmstat and iostat utilities are
good choices.
Will give this information soon.
29. Are there any other significant applications running on this
system? Are you using Berkeley DB outside of Berkeley DB XML?
Please describe the application?
No to the first two questions.
The web application is an online review of test questions. The users
login and then review the items one by one. The relational database
holds the data in xml. During application load, the application
retrieves the xml and then saves it to bdb. While the user
is making changes to the data in the application, it writes those
changes to bdb. Finally when the user hits the SAVE button, the data
gets saved to the relational database. We also have an automatic save
every two minues, which saves bdb xml data and saves it to relational
database.
Thanks,
Madhav

Could it be that you simply do not have set up indexes to support your query? If so, you could do some basic testing using the dbxml shell:
milu@colinux:~/xpg > dbxml -h ~/dbenv
Joined existing environment
dbxml> setverbose 7 2
dbxml> open tv.dbxml
dbxml> listIndexes
dbxml> query     { collection()[//@date-tip]/*[@chID = ('ard','zdf')] (: example :) }
dbxml> queryplan { collection()[//@date-tip]/*[@chID = ('ard','zdf')] (: example :) }Verbosity will make the engine display some (rather cryptic) information on index usage. I can't remember where the output is explained; my feeling is that "V(...)" means the index is being used (which is good), but that observation may not be accurate. Note that some details in the setVerbose command could differ, as I'm using 2.4.16 while you're using 2.4.13.
Also, take a look at the query plan. You can post it here and some people will be able to diagnose it.

Help in xquery

Hi guys,
how to add years to a date in osb.
as my tranformation needs target node as cobination of year+date, i tried with xquery functions avaailable in osb, but didnt find any function which adds year to a date.
Thanks in advance.
regards,
shaik.
Edited by: shaik.apps on Feb 25, 2010 8:58 PM

I don't know of any such a function in OSB. If I needed that now, I would probably have to split date into its components, add to year (as a number) and then again compose new date from components. Maybe something like this:
xquery version "1.0" encoding "UTF-8";
declare namespace xf = "http://com.mycompany/xquery/add-year";
declare function xf:pad($input as xs:integer)
    as xs:string {
        if ($input < 10)
        then
            fn:concat('0', $input)
        else
            xs:string($input)
declare function xf:add-to-year($date as xs:date, $years as xs:integer)
    as xs:date {
     xs:date(fn:concat(fn:year-from-date($date)+$years, '-', xf:pad(fn:month-from-date($date)), '-', xf:pad(fn:day-from-date($date))))
xf:add-to-year(fn:current-date(), 3)What an ugly thing! :-) Hope somebody around knows something better ...

Some questions with respect to OSB 11g

Hi,
I am quite new to OSB 11g and have some queries.
1. If a SOA Composite transaction has been rolled back, how would be reflected in OSB. Would there be any retries?
2. For a composite to use a proxy service, is it a must to use a direct binding reference of OSB? Can't SOA composite simply consider a proxy service a generic web service?
3. Where are the debugging information written to? Can you control what is written to the debugging file? Can you specify filters,level of severity? Can you specify what context variables?
4. Does OSB only runs on WLS and is therefore not hot pluggable on other app servers?
5. One can create, attach WS-policies to my WSDL web services and enforce them on WLS all without using OWSM. If this is possible then what is the role of OWSM?
I would really appreciate any help with these queries.
Regards
Priya.

1. If a SOA Composite transaction has been rolled back, how would be reflected in OSB. Would there be any retries?
If you are calling an OSB Proxy from a SOA Composite and the transaction is terminated and rolled back from SOA Composite then OSB transaction will also be terminated and an error will be logged on OSB side. For retrying I am not sure but there should be an option in the SOA suite composite to retry.
2. For a composite to use a proxy service, is it a must to use a direct binding reference of OSB? Can't SOA composite simply consider a proxy service a generic web service?
SOA Suite composite can directly call a WSDL based Proxy Service as a generic web service. I believe it It should also be possible to invoke an XML/HTTP (Any XML Proxy Service) from SOA Suite composite. Although Direct Binding is the preferred option because of performance and security reasons.
3. Where are the debugging information written to? Can you control what is written to the debugging file? Can you specify filters,level of severity? Can you specify what context variables?
Debug information will be written into the WLS log files by default. You can log any information you want (context variables or custom data) from a Proxy Service message flow using Log action. You can control the severity of log in the Log Action.
You can define what level of Logs will be actually written to the log file and set any custom filters on Logs in the WLS Console (Home>Servers>{Your server Name}>Logging>Advanced).
If you want to enable specific debug logging at the server level(for ex if you want to log transaction details by default), you can do so by enabling needed debug logging at (Home>Servers>{Your server Name}>Debug)
4. Does OSB only runs on WLS and is therefore not hot pluggable on other app servers?
Yes OSB is only certified for WLS.
5. One can create, attach WS-policies to my WSDL web services and enforce them on WLS all without using OWSM. If this is possible then what is the role of OWSM?
Biggest difference is of Scope. You can very well attach WS Policies to services in OSB but their scope will only be of OSB. OWSM can do so at an enterprise level across various applications. OWSM also provides end to end security and SLA monitoring, easier update of Policies across enterprise etc. For more details on OWSM check out this white paper:

Help with XMLSEQUENCE and repeating elements

I need help with the following XML extraction (note this is on Oracle9i). I have the following XML structure. There are multiple <Reading> elements
<MeterReadings>
<MeterReading>
<Meter>
<id>0004128190</id>
<idType>METER_X_UNIVERSAL_ID</idType>
</Meter>
<Premise>
<id>PREM4128190</id>
<idType>X_CLIENT_PRMSE_ID</idType>
</Premise>
<Reading>
<value>11111</value>
<readingTypeId>CKWH</readingTypeId>
</Reading>
<Reading>
<value>22222</value>
<readingTypeId>KWHP</readingTypeId>
</Reading>
</MeterReading>
</MeterReadings>
I want to return one row for each <reading> element, including all its sub-elements - <value> and <readingTypeId>
So, for the above data set, I would like to get back something like this. The parent elements can be repeated.
<meter/id>,<Premise/id>,<Reading/value>,<Reading/readingTypeId>
0004128190,PREM4128190,11111,CKWH
0004128190,PREM4128190,22222,KWHP
I have tried to use the XMLSequence function like this:
select extractvalue(i.xml_message,'MeterReadings/MeterReading/Meter/id'),
extractvalue(value(p),'value'), extractvalue(value(p),'readingTypeId')
from myTable i,
table(XMLSequence(
extract(i._xml_message, '//Reading/*' ))) p
But then I get results like this, where each sub-element results in a new row:
0004128190     11111     null
0004128190     null     CKWH
0004128190     22222     null
0004128190     null     KWHP
What would be the proper XQuery?
Thanks!

Help with if statement in cursor and for loop to get output

I have the following cursor and and want to use if else statement to get the output. The cursor is working fine. What i need help with is how to use and if else statement to only get the folderrsn that have not been updated in the last 30 days. If you look at the talbe below my select statement is showing folderrs 291631 was updated only 4 days ago and folderrsn 322160 was also updated 4 days ago.
I do not want these two to appear in my result set. So i need to use if else so that my result only shows all folderrsn that havenot been updated in the last 30 days.
Here is my cursor:
/*Cursor for Email procedure. It is working Shows userid and the string
You need to update these folders*/
DECLARE
a_user varchar2(200) := null;
v_assigneduser varchar2(20);
v_folderrsn varchar2(200);
v_emailaddress varchar2(60);
v_subject varchar2(200);
Cursor c IS
SELECT assigneduser, vu.emailaddress, f.folderrsn, trunc(f.indate) AS "IN DATE",
MAX (trunc(fpa.attemptdate)) AS "LAST UPDATE",
trunc(sysdate) - MAX (trunc(fpa.attemptdate)) AS "DAYS PAST"
--MAX (TRUNC (fpa.attemptdate)) - TRUNC (f.indate) AS "NUMBER OF DAYS"
FROM folder f, folderprocess fp, validuser vu, folderprocessattempt fpa
WHERE f.foldertype = 'HJ'
AND f.statuscode NOT IN (20, 40)
AND f.folderrsn = fp.folderrsn
AND fp.processrsn = fpa.processrsn
AND vu.userid = fp.assigneduser
AND vu.statuscode = 1
GROUP BY assigneduser, vu.emailaddress, f.folderrsn, f.indate
ORDER BY fp.assigneduser;
BEGIN
FOR c1 IN c LOOP
IF (c1.assigneduser = v_assigneduser) THEN
dbms_output.put_line(' ' || c1.folderrsn);
else
dbms_output.put(c1.assigneduser ||': ' || 'Overdue Folders:You need to update these folders: Folderrsn: '||c1.folderrsn);
END IF;
a_user := c1.assigneduser;
v_assigneduser := c1.assigneduser;
v_folderrsn := c1.folderrsn;
v_emailaddress := c1.emailaddress;
v_subject := 'Subject: Project for';
END LOOP;
END;
The reason I have included the folowing table is that I want you to see the output from the select statement. that way you can help me do the if statement in the above cursor so that the result will look like this:
emailaddress
Subject: 'Project for ' || V_email || 'not updated in the last 30 days'
v_folderrsn
v_folderrsn
etc
[email protected]......
Subject: 'Project for: ' Jim...'not updated in the last 30 days'
284087
292709
[email protected].....
Subject: 'Project for: ' Kim...'not updated in the last 30 days'
185083
190121
190132
190133
190159
190237
284109
286647
294631
322922
[email protected]....
Subject: 'Project for: Joe...'not updated in the last 30 days'
183332

183881
183882
183883
183884
183886
183887
183888

Hoping for some help with a very frustrating issue!
I have been syncing calendar and contacts on my iPhone 5 and Outlook 2007 using iCloud 2.1.3 (my PC is running Vista). All was well until the events I entered on the phone were showing up in Outlook, but not the other way around. I’ve tried the usual recommended steps: deselecting calendar and contacts in the iCloud control panel and then re-selecting, signing out of the panel and back in, and repairing the Outlook installation in control panel. I even uninstalled iCloud on the PC and downloaded it again (same version).
The furthest I’ve gotten is step 2 (and once, step 3) of 7 while performing “Outlook Setup For iCloud.” At that point I get, “Your setup couldn’t be started because of an unexpected error.” After the first attempt at all this, all my calendar events disappeared from Outlook, although they are still in iCloud calendar and on my phone.
Sound familiar? Any ideas on how to solve this iCloud/Outlook issue? Thanks much in advance!

Help with HP Laser Printer 1200se

HP Support Line,
Really need your assistance. I have tried both contacting HP by phone (told they no longer support our printer via phone help), the tech told me that I needed to contact HP by e-mail for assistance. I then sent an e-mail for assistance and got that reply today, the reply is as follows "Randall, unfortunately, HP does not offer support via e-mail for your product. However many resources are available on the HP web site that may provide the answer to your inquiry. Support is also available via telephone. A list of technical support numbers can be round at the following URL........." The phone numbers listed are the ones I called and the ones that told me I needed to contact the e-mail support for help.
So here I am looking for your help with my issue.
We just bought a new HP Pavillion Slimline Desk Top PC (as our 6 year old HP Pavillion PC died on us). We have 2 HP printers, one (an all-in-one type printer, used maily for copying and printing color, when needed) is connected and it is working fine with the exception of the scanning option (not supported by Windows 7). However we use our Laser Printer for all of our regular prining needs. This is the HP LaserPrinter 1200se, which is about 6 years old but works really well. For this printer we currently only have a parallel connection type cord and there is not a parallel port on the Slimline HP PC. The printer also has the option to connedt a USB cable (we do not currently have this type of cable).
We posed the following two questions:
1. Is the Laser Jet 1200se compatible with Windows 7?
and if this is the case
2. Can we purchase either a) a USC connection cord (generic or do we need a printer specific cord)? or b) is there there a printer cable converter adapater to attach to our parallel cable to convert to a USB connection?
We do not want to purchase the USB cable if Windows 7 will not accept the connection, or if doing this will harm the PC.
We really would appreciate any assitance that you might give us.
Thank you,
Randy and Leslie Gibson

Sorry, both cannot be enabled by design. That said, devices on a network do not care how others are connected. You can print from a wireless connection to a wired (Ethernet) printer and v/v.
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

Going to Australia and need help with Power converters

Facts:
US uses 110v on 60hz
Australia 220v on 50hz
Making sure I understood that correctly. Devices I plan on bringing that will use power are PS3 Slim, MacBook Pro 2008 model, and WD 1TB External HDD. My DS, and Cell are charging via USB to save trouble of other cables.
Ideas I've had or thought of:
1. Get a power converter for a US Powerstrip, and then plug in my US items into the strip and then the strip into an AUS Converter into Australian outlet. Not sure if this fixes the voltage/frequency change.
2. Get power converters for all my devices. But, not sure if my devices needs ways of lowering the voltage/increasing frequency or something to help with the adjustment.
3. Buy a universal powerstrip, which is extremely costly and I wouldn't be able to have here in time (I leave Thursday). Unless Best Buy carrys one.

Check the specs on input voltage/frequency of your power supplies.
Many laptop power supplies are "universal/global" and are specced something like 80-265 volts AC 50/60 Hz, but not all. These will just need a connector adapter.
Unsure about the PS3 Slim - if it isn't universal it could be difficult as you'll need a 110/220 transformer, one big enough (power-handling wise) for the PS3 will be very bulky.
For the external WD HDD, if it doesn't have a universal supply, you're probably best off just finding a new wallwart for it that is capable of running on 220/50.

Creation of context sensitive help with pure FM 12 usage doesn't work

Hi,
I hope somebody is able to help me with a good hint or tip.
I am trying to create a context-sensitive Microsoft Help with FM12 only using the abilities of FM (no RoboHelp). For some reasons, my assigned ID's are not used in the generated chm file and therefore the help does not work context-sensitively.
What did I do?
- I created my FM files and assigned topic aliases to the headers. I did this two ways: a) using the "Special" menue and assigning a CSH marker and/or b) setting a new marker of type "Topic Alias" and typing the ID. I used only numeric IDs like "2000" or "4200",
- I created a .h file (projectname.h) - based on the format of the file projectname_!Generated!.h (I read this in some instructions). So the .h file (text file) looks like this:
#define 2000 2000 /* 4 Anwendungsoberfläche */
#define 2022 2022 /* 4.1.1 Menü Datei */
#define 2030 2030 /* 4.1.3 Menü Parametersatz */
#define 2180 2180 /* 6.6.7 Objektdialog Q-Regler */
#define 2354 2354 /* 6.9.2 Objektdialog Extran Parameter */
#define 2560 2560 /* 6.9.5 Objektdialog Extran2D Parametersatz */
- I published the Microsoft HTML Help. A projectname_!Generated!.h has been created. My IDs were not used in this file:
#define 2000    1
#define 2022    2
#define 2030    3
#define 2180    4
#define 2354    5
#define 2560    6
- When I open the .chm file and look in the source code, the ID even is totally different. It is not the one, I assigned in FM, it is not the one which I assigned in the projectname.h file and it even is not the one, which was put in the projectname_!Generated!.h file. It is a generated name starting with CSH_1 ...n in a consecutive way numbered.
Example:
<p class="FM_Heading1"><a name="XREF_72066_13_Glossar"></a>Gloss<a name="CSH_1"></a>ar</p>
What goes wrong? Why does FM not take my assigned IDs? I need to use these IDs since our programmers are using those already - I had to re-create the whole online help but the programs stay untouched.
Please help!
Many thanks
Mohi

Hi Jeff,
thanks for your note!
The text in my marker is just a number like "2000" or "4200". As said, I created manually a my.h file and used this marker there. E.g.
#define 2000 2000.
Whereby the first 2000 (in my opinion) is the marker text and the second 2000 is the context ID which the programmers are using for the context sensitive call of the help. My definitions in the my.h file were translated to #define 2000 1 (in the my_!Generated!.h file). The source code "translates" the context ID into CSH_8.
I am still confused :-/
Thanks
Mohi

Need help with Boot Camp and Win 7

I have iMac 27" (iMac11,1) 2.8 GHz, quad core, 8MB of L3, 8GB of Memory, Boot ROM Version IM111.0034.B02 and SMC Version 1.54f36 and can't get this machine to run Windows 7 using Boot Camp. I have successfully loaded Win 7 but when it claims to be starting I only get a black screen after initial start up.
I have checked and rechecked my software updates and have read and reread the instructions, however, I can't update my Boot Camp to 3.1 (my machine says i'm running 3.0.4) and I need 3.1 but can't load 3.1 because it is an exe file that has to be loaded into Windows after I load Windows but can't open Windows because I can't load Boot Camp 3.1. That's my excuse anyway, so I'm missing something I just can't figure out what it is....this is where you come in!
Thanks.
Mike

Mike,
I'm not going to be much help with Boot Camp however I can direct you to the Boot Camp forum where there are more people that know how to troubleshoot it and Windoze 7. You can find it at:
