How do I clean up the begining and ends of tracks?

I can't seem to clean up tracks before committing them to disc.

I can't seem to understand this question because it is so extremely vague.

How can I put asterisk in the beginning and end of a search parameter..?

Hi!
I'm developing a program for a user where he wants a search parameter for the description about some purchase orders....
The problem is if the user want to make a search for any word he need to put asterisk in the beginning and end of the word because if the user don't put the asterisk the search will not find anything because the program don't know if the word is in the beginning of the description or in the end or in the middle...
How can I put one asterisk in the beginning and end of the search topic entered by the user internally in the program..? I was thinking using the concatenate function but for this will not work because the program think that the asterisk is part of the word and not..
The search parameter of the Description is in range.. (Select-Options).
Thanks for your help!!

Thanks keshav!
OK... and if I concatenate the asterisk latter I can make this search?
In the code desc_search is the select_option that I tell u. I use the DESCRIBE to see first if it is not initial... if desc_search have an entry then access the DELETE to remove all the records that are diferent from desc_search.. This desc_search will have the word with the asterisk... and the question is if it works if I use the concatenate before this... anyway I will try but I think that if I use the concatenate the program confuse and take the asterisk as part of the word..
DESCRIBE TABLE desc_search LINES desc_count.
IF desc_count IS NOT INITIAL.
DELETE core_table WHERE desc NOT IN desc_search.
ENDIF.
Let u know if works!!
Thanks!

How do I remove residual frames at the beginning and end of a video?

I'm making a short clip with black slugs at the beginning and end. But there are two or three residual frames from the incoming clip after the black clip that stay at the beginning and end of the video and I can't remove them. I've tried trimming the beginning and end of the video several different ways, and the frames won't disappear. They stay in the video when I make a DVD. The very first and very last frame have sprocket holes in them on the edge of the frame. I'm baffled. Is this an artifact of using the trial version?

chances are they are from a fade. have you zoomed in really really close and checked if there is a small fade in or fade out? happens to me all the time, and with the fade out, you can't do anything to fix it (that I've found) except replacing the clip from your Browser. See my similar question here:

Hope that helps.

How to calc the begining and end of every month (leap year)

Hi all,
I'm looking for a method that returns the begining and end of next month.
example:
today is 2005-10-04
so the method suppose to return:
2005-11-01
2005-11-31 //as it ends on the 31
I came up with the code below - but I don't like it as I can't get the end of month + it's not safe.
any suggestions.
Thanks
Peter
Calendar gcToday = Calendar.getInstance();
          int month = gcToday.get(Calendar.MONTH);
          int year = gcToday.get(Calendar.YEAR);
          month+=2;
          if(month>12) //beacuase of month+=2;
               year++;
               month=1;
          String nextMonth;
          if (month<10)
               nextMonth=year+"-0"+month+"-01";
          else
               nextMonth=year+"-"+month+"-01";

Look at using the methods getActualMaximum() and getActualMinimum() in the Calendar class. Basically what I would do is set the calendar to the 15th of the month (well, really anything between 1 and 28) and then add() one to the current month. The Calendar will roll over the dates as needed.

Removing punctuation from the beginning and end of a string

I am working on a project for a "spell checking" program. So far the StringHash class is made, and the dictionary is read into a hash table. Then the document to be checked is specified via command line, the document scans through each word and checks to see if it is in the dictionary, if it is do nothing, if it is not then display it to console. The problem I am having is with a method in the main class. The method (I will post what I have so far) is called removePunct. The method should remove any punctuation from the beginning and the end of the string, nothing from the middle. Here is what I have so far:
public static String removePunct(String word){
          StringBuilder wo = new StringBuilder(word);
          int x = (word.length()-1);
          if(!Character.isLetter(wo.charAt(0)))
               wo.deleteCharAt(0);
          if(!Character.isLetter(wo.charAt(x)))
               wo.deleteCharAt(x);
          return wo.toString();
Any help would be much appreciated, I'm pretty certain the solution is either something completely different, or something so simple that I just missed it.

The easiest way to do this is to just show you the actual file to be spell checked:
-- outline --
This directory contains Bison skeletons: the general shapes of the
different parser kinds, that are specialized for specific grammars by
the bison program.
Currently, there are only three supported skeletons:
- yacc.c
It used to be named bison.simple: it corresponds to C Yacc
compatible LALR(1) parsers.
- lalr1.cc
Produces a C++ parser class. It is still very experimental, and not
yet supported. Please, subscribe to [email protected].
- glr.c
A Generalized LR C parser based on Bison's LALR(1) tables.
These skeletons are the only ones supported by the Bison team.
Because the interface between skeletons and the bison program is not
finished, we are not bound to it. In particular, Bison is not
mature enough for us to consider that ``foreign skeletons'' are
supported.

What I need the spell checker to do is read each word, and strip any beginning or ending punctuation, e.g. (c) would become c. Pretty much punctuation consists of anything that is not a letter, hence the use of isLetter. I can easily modify the method to remove all punctuation using regular expressions, but I only want the beginning and end characters removed.
Example of words:
-yacc.c would become yacc.c and is not in the dictionary so it would be printed.

Can you adjust audio volume at the beginning and end of a clip?

I want to add portions of songs into my iMovie videos. When I do that they abruptly start and end. Is there no way to adjust add a fade at the beginning and end of an audio clip?

As said above, you cannot.
The only work around is to edit audio in an external app.
So please do suggest to Apple to add this feature in the next update.

How do I clean out the "Open With" dialog box when I right click an image?f

Hi,
When I right-click and image to open it in a program I get a long list of programs to choose from. Many are duplicated or the same program but different version #s like Preview. How do I clean out the dupes and ones I don't want and keep the ones I do?
How would I add CS3's Adobe Camera Raw to the list?

Do a search for details on cleaning up the "open with" dialog, it's been discussed before but I'm sorry I can't remember what the fixes are.
I have duplicate choices too but have never tried to clean them up.

Find beginning and end of an XMLtag in text

I am trying to find the beginning and end of an xml tag in a block of text using a script. Does anybody have any ideas on how to locate the beginning and end of an xml tag in text?
You can see the ends of a tag visually from the user interface by the colored brackets that appear. So one of my ideas is to use a function to find the brackets. Does anyone know if those brackets have a character number, or some way to identify them?

-257 is 0xFEFF (as a signed 2 byte word).
I don't think that's a terribly reliable way of checking XML tags (I seem to remember this is more an internal "IsNotUsual" code for ID). And you don't know if it's a start or end tag.
Your script may or may not pick up this code in the selected string, depending on where you start and end your selection. You can use regular string functions to remove them from the string.
Perhaps it's better to walk over the XML tree and check if each element's start and end value ("storyOffset" for the start, a quick eyeballing of the help didn't reveal a good candidate for its end) is at the start and end of your selection.

Auto trim out silence at beginning and end?

Audition 3
Anyone know if there is an option to automatically trim out the silence at the beginning and end of audio file? If so, how?

Sorry, no there isn't* - and if there was, most people wouldn't use it because a really hard start or end is rarely what's required. Anyway, it wouldn't really be any quicker than just highlighting the amount of silence you want to remove, and hitting the 'delete' key - and that method has the advantage of letting you select exactly where to trim.
*Unless it's digital silence, in which case there's an option under edit>automark - but this won't work with anything other than digital silence at the start and/or end.

Javadoc Comments Begin and End Offset, Line number etc...

Hello Everyone,
I was wondering if there is a method that return the begin and end offsets, and line number of source code comment. I know this is possible to get the line number for Doc, MethodDoc, ConstutorDoc etc... with the position() method. I was unable to get the locations of comments corresponding to the actual source code. Also, I found that when asking for the position of constructors the value returned was that of the class, is this a known bug?
Thanks in Advanced,
Nick

Just out of curiosity, what do the folks at sun use for Java Parsers?They didn't need to go too far. The Java Parser must be a part of any Java compiler itself! Therefore, it is a part of any JDK. Obviously, they have some internal API of their Java parser and, I guess, Javadoc uses it to build the Java code model provided via the Doclet API. But Sun had never published the full API to their Java parser. (At least, I don't know such.) Although, it would be very useful indeed...
FYI, a parser for a high-level programming language (like Java) is a software module that inputs a program written (by humans) as text in that language and converts it into some object representation (model) "understandable" to computer. That object representation must be a sort of tree representing all the language constructs found in the program. Typically, that tree is accessible via a certain API, which I call here a Parser API (although, other terminology may be used).
Other software modules may use that object representation of the program for various purposes, for instance:
- To generate an executable machine (or byte-) code by it
- To transform the initial program in order to optimize it (this is used by compilers) or to do other things (e.g. refactoring)
- To generate documentation (that's what Javadoc does)
Besides generating the program object representation, another job of a parser is to provide diagnostics about various syntactical errors found in the initial program source (a well as possibly some semantic warnings).
A parser is rather sophisticated piece of code. To develop it properly, one needs to learn first some theory about this, e.g. a formal grammar that describes the given programming language and how to deal with it. I know, there have been attempts to create some universal parsers that can be adjusted to parse any programming language (within a certain range) by specifying to them some formal grammar of that language. That topic was particularly beloved by university guys, so there must be many scientific articles about this.

Well, if you are developing an Eclipse plugin, have you considered working with Eclipse' Abstract Syntax Tree (basically an object model for Java code) instead of the Doclet API?Interesting stuff... Looks like this might be that very Java parser API I am talking about here.

Clicks at beginning and end of Clip

I have a Clip that I am using as a click sound on components, and a class with static methods to play them. When you play the .wav files in an editor (Sound Forge, in this case), everything sounds and looks fine. But when I play them as a clip, I get a "click" sound at the beginning and end of the clip. During playback, everything is fine, no clicks or anything. Here is the code that actually plays the clip (abbreviated):
private static byte[] clickSound;
private static byte[] startUpSound;
private static Clip clickClip;
private static Clip startupClip;
public enum Sounds {
    CLICK, STARTUP;
public static void playSound(AudioManager.Sounds soundType) {
    Clip clip = null;
    try {
        switch (soundType) {
            case CLICK:
                if (clickSound == null) {
                    System.out.println("clickSound is null");
                    InputStream in = new Object().getClass().getResourceAsStream("/data/sounds/click.wav");
                    clickSound = new byte[in.available()];
                    in.read(clickSound, 0, clickSound.length);
                    in = null;
                    clickClip = AudioSystem.getClip();
                    clickClip.open(AudioManager.getAudioFormat(), clickSound, 0, clickSound.length);
                clip = AudioManager.clickClip;
                break;
            case STARTUP:
                if (startUpSound == null) {
                    try {
                        System.out.println("startUpSound is null");
                        InputStream in = new Object().getClass().getResourceAsStream("/data/sounds/startup.wav");
                        //System.out.println("in.available() = " + in.available());
                        startUpSound = new byte[in.available()];
                        in.read(startUpSound, 0, startUpSound.length);
                        in = null;
                        startupClip = AudioSystem.getClip();
                        startupClip.open(AudioManager.getAudioFormat(), startUpSound, 0, startUpSound.length);
                    } catch (IOException ex) {
                        // ignore any exceptions here, it just won't play the sound
                clip = AudioManager.startupClip;
                break;
    } catch (IOException ex) {
        // ignore any exceptions here, it just won't play the sound
    } catch (LineUnavailableException ex) {
        // ignore any exceptions here, it just won't play the sound
    if (clip != null) {
        try {
            clip.setFramePosition(0);
            clip.start();
        } finally {
            clip = null;
}Any ideas on what the cause of the "clicking" is at the beginning and end of the clips?

captfoss,
Thank you so much. You are 100% correct. And, I might add, you helped me catch myself on doing something that I complain about others doing: not looking things up. You figured out the problem by simply reading the javadoc, something I have always been a proponent of, but failed to do so in this case.
So thanks again! :)
I did as you prescribed, and it worked without flaw. I did, however, have to make one small modification due to the way I am storing my wav files (of which you would be unaware). I am storing them inside the same jar that I am executing from, and so I can't simply make a new File("/data/sounds/click.wav"). You have to actually write the file to the disc first, then create the file reference, like this:
InputStream in = new Object().getClass().getResourceAsStream("/data/sounds/click.wav");
File tempWav = File.createTempFile("click", ".wav");
BufferedOutputStream out = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(tempWav));
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
while ((in.read(buffer))!=-1){
    out.write(buffer);
out.close();
AudioInputStream ais = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(tempWav);
clickClip = AudioSystem.getClip();
//clickClip.open(AudioManager.getAudioFormat(), clickSound, 0, clickSound.length);
clickClip.open(ais);The system complains about having a non-hierarchical reference if I don't write it to a temp file first. Is there a way around that too? I can award you more points in another thread, if you'd like.
I could do that anyways if the Duke points mean anything to you. :)

Narrations have "pop" noise at begining and end

Hopefully this is an easy question for the experts out there. Whenever I add audio to a clip (either through narration or adding a .wav file), I get a "pop" sound at the beginning and end of the clip (sounds like the microphone is being turned on and off). Is there a way of getting rid of this without fading in and out the audio? By the way, this doesn't happen with audio that is transferred into the workspace with video (ex. pulling in a DVD .vob file).
Any suggestions?
Thanks

How to modify a Visual Studio project for having traces at the beginning and the ending of a function

Good afternoon,
I am working on a Visual Studio project (written in C) and in order to do some debugging, I would like to add traces.
This can be done in different ways:
int function_1();
{ #ifdef DEBUG
printf("function_1\n");
#endif... }
=>But as this implies that I need to copy the name of the functions everywhere, this is a lot of work.
A better approach:
int function_1();
{ #ifdef DEBUG
printf("%s \n", __FUNCTION__);
#endif... }
=> This is already better, but I still need to add those lines of code everywhere at the beginning (and the end) of my functions.
So I'm wondering, would it be possible to modify my Visual Studio project in such a way that some lines of code are added at the beginning and the ending of a function, and this for a whole file, project, solution? Does somebody know how to do this?
Thanks
Dominique

TS1424 I downloaded an album and two of the songs stop near the beginning and go on to the next song. How do I fix this?

I downloaded the Ed Sheeran + album (Deluxe version), and two of the songs (Drunk and U.N.I) stop close to the beginning and just skip to the next song (At first it skipped to the last songs, but then I put the two songs at the bottom of the playliust and they just go to the next song.) How can I fix this? Do I have to buy a the two songs again??

Other people have been having similar problems with songs over a number of days.
Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting those tracks from your iTunes library and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-download in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find those songs and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

How do I clean up the begining and ends of tracks?
