How do I repeat a function that starts immediately?

Hi,
I am using a Timer function to repeat a function however the function only begins (and repeats) after the period set eg. 5 seconds not immediately.
Here is an example of the code:
var myTimer:Timer = new Timer(2000,8);
myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, timerListener);
function timerListener (e:TimerEvent):void{
trace("Timer is Triggered");
myTimer.start();
Is there any way to make the function start immediately then repeat?
Thanks
Chris

after timer.start()
add
myTimer.dispatchEvent(new TimerEvent(TimerEvent.TIMER));
this will trigger your function immediately

I think there is not native rule for this, but you could try a transport rule which removes all attachments over a very small file size like 1KB.

How i can take all record that start for Epi using a select?

How i can take all record that start for Epi using a select?
exemple
select objnr from jest where objnr = 'Epi*' -
so don't go

Is case important? Can it be "EPI"?
I think case is important, so do it like Shakir showed you, but put it in upper case.

How can I make a brush that starts and ends in a thin line?

I am looking to make a brush that I can use for cartooning in CS6 that starts out thin, gets thicker with pressure (I have a cintiq), and ends in a thin line. Does anyone have the expertise to make one?
Thank you.

I watched the first half of the tutorial from your link and some parts of the rest. It is a good tutorial. He is using an art brush which profile was created from an elliptical shape with sharp corners which gives that ink kind of appearance which is good for this kind of style. Most of the time though I prefer the appearance of the rounded ends of the calligraphic brushes. Also one advantage of the calligraphic brushes is that it can change its size or the size of the selected strokes with the [ and ] keys on the keyboard while with the art brushes this is done by changing the stroke weight which also can change the weight of calligraphic brushes in addition to the [ and ] keys.
Like in the tutorial I often use a similar workflow ending up with the brush strokes converted to filled paths but I simply use expand appearance then remove the unwanted parts with the Eraser brush which can be made pressure sensitive in the options that you get when double clicking the Eraser tool. This is less precise than the technique the guy is using in the video tutorial but it is quick, I like the hand touch appearance of the imperfections, and it also allows me to paint the white (transparent) highlights like for example the highlights on the booths of my cowboy. The Blob brush is the tool above the Eraser in the Tool panel and works basically the same like the Eraser but it adds to the fill of a path and it also has these and more options when you double click it. I use it most of the time in a combination with the Eraser to add or remove final details of illustrations started initially with brush strokes and then expanded. And like in the video tutorial I also like to keep a copy with the stage before expanding the brush strokes in case I need some changes on brush stroke level.
I also use a different technique for adding new color fills on the illustrations instead of cutting paths with the knife. I don't like the knife because I often do not like the first cut which I may realize later when undo is not the best workflow. What I do is copy paste in front the path and use the pencil tool set to edit the selected paths and change the shape of the selected path similar to using the knife but the pencil has to start and end on the path. The advantage of this for me is that the new fill with the different color is overlapping the original fill behind and when later I decide to change its shape I don't get gaps between the two colors which is what will happen if the knife was used.

How to find a line/edge that starts at the same point as the end of another

I have an edges table of Lat/Lon data and for a specific edge I want to find any other edges that have the same start point as the end point of the given edge.
I tried the following query:
select geo_street_id from geo_street s2
where SDO_LRS.GEOM_SEGMENT_START_PT(s2.geom) =
(select SDO_LRS.GEOM_SEGMENT_END_PT(s.geom) as geom from geo_street s
where geo_street_id = 122978214)
but it gets the following error:
ORA-22901: cannot compare nested table or VARRAY or LOB attributes of an object type
Any Ideas?

1. to compare geometry to be equal you should use appropriate function (SDO_GEOM.RELATE http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/B14255_01/sdo_objgeom.htm#sthref1561) or operators (sdo_relate http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/B14255_01/sdo_operat.htm#i78531) with specific mask EQUAL.
2. to filter down the resultset in first place you can use the operator SDO_RELATE with mask TOUCH as this will return already the set of lines sharing endpoints, but will also include lines touching eachother not at endpoints (endpoint intersecting the otherone's interior)
something like
select geo_street_id from geo_street s2, geo_street s
where
s.geo_street_id = 122978214
AND
sdo_relate(s2.geom, s.geom,'mask=touch') = 'TRUE'
AND
sdo_geom.relate(SDO_LRS.GEOM_SEGMENT_START_PT(s2.geom),
'EQUAL',
SDO_LRS.GEOM_SEGMENT_END_PT(s.geom),0.005)='EQUAL'
3. if you would do this for the full table, an SDO_JOIN (http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/B14255_01/sdo_operat.htm#BGEDJIBF) might be more appropriate.
4. you might also consider 4 cases:
start = start
start = end
end = start
end = end
5. alternative would be to take only the endpoints of your selected geometry and perform a touch with the edges. using the sdo_util.APPEND on the startpoint en endpoint of your geometry will return a multipoint. although there might some specific cases that this would not return respected result I think
something like:
select geo_street_id from geo_street s2, geo_street s
where
s.geo_street_id = 122978214
AND
sdo_relate(s2.geom,
SDO_UTIL.APPEND(
SDO_LRS.GEOM_SEGMENT_START_PT(s.geom),
SDO_LRS.GEOM_SEGMENT_END_PT(s.geom)
,'mask=touch') = 'TRUE'
Let us know how it works.

How do I add a clip that starts before 1st menu appears

I need to find out if there is a way for me to show film clip right after I start the DVD and before the 1st menu is shown.
I only want to show it the 1st time the DVD is placed in a drive.
Is there a way to do that in DVD SP 2
Thanks
Paul

As David said... but I would definitely use a track and set it as first play, then set the end jump of that to go to the main menu. This is how warning screens, etc, are generally done.
If you use a menu you'll need to be sure throughout the rest of the DVD that the Title button on the remote doesn't point to your item... using a track will avoid this need.

How do you call a function that belongs in a package?

Hello,
Can anyone help me with this issue? My intent is to create a procedure that returns a cursor to the results of the query without passing in the cursor to the function. After reading thru online tutorials, I found that I had to create a function, not a procedure.
I created a .sql file as such:
create or replace package GetEmployeeCursors is
type empResultSet is REF CURSOR;
function Funct1 return empResultSet;
end GetEmployeeCursors;
create or replace package body GetEmployeeCursors is function Funct1 return
empResultSet is
tmpResultSet empResultSet;
begin
open tmpResultSet for
select * from employee;
return tmpResultSet;
end Funct1;
end GetEmployeeCursors;
Both the package and package body were created without any problems.
Then, I tried to call the Funct1() in many ways, including the following:
call System.getEmployeeCursors.Funct1()
call getEmployeeCursors.Funct1()
call Funct1()
All produced the following error message:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-06576: not a valid function or procedure name
How do I call Funct1()?
Thanks so much in advance,
--Anna

Hello Frank,
Thanks for the information regarding not using the system schema when creating packages.
I tried what you suggested to call the Funct1 in many ways:
SQL> mycursor := system.getEmployeeCursors.funct1;
SP2-0734: unknown command beginning "mycursor :..." - rest of line ignored.
SQL> mycursor := getEmployeeCursors.funct1;
SP2-0734: unknown command beginning "mycursor :..." - rest of line ignored.
SQL> mycursor := funct1;
SP2-0734: unknown command beginning "mycursor :..." - rest of line ignored.
SQL> select *
2 from table(system.getEmployeeCursors.funct1);
from table(system.getEmployeeCursors.funct1)
ERROR at line 2:
ORA-22905: cannot access rows from a non-nested table item
Could there be something else I need to do before making the function call?
Thanks alot!

How to call a java function that is in page header from a process in page.

Hi,
Generally we call plsql process from a javascript in the header of that page.
But i want the other way around.
Is it possible or is it a completely wrong idea.
I am thinking so because we are able to call javascripts from items and buttons why cant we do so from a process.
Thanks and Regards,

I am thinking so because we are able to call javascripts from items and buttons why cant we do so from a process.It's a "completely wrong idea". Processes and PL/SQL run in the database on the server. JavaScript runs in the browser on the client. For basuic security reasons the browser must make requests to the server, not the other way round.
Please update your forum profile with a real handle instead of "943323".

Try looking in the bdump directory, the alert file. The actual path should be in your init.ora or config.ora parameter file.

How do I cancel a download that won't load

I tried downloading a movie from iTunes. It lost connection and stopped downloading and now none of my apps will update. It just says waiting. How do I cancel the movie that started loading?

Repeat on function in ME21N

Hi,
Could some one let me know how does this Repeat On function work (available in account assignement tab) while creating Purchase order using T code ME21N ?
Thanks
ArunVijay D

Hello,
One of our users noticed that once the 'Repeat' option is turned on in ME21N on the Account Assignment tab, she cannot get it to turn off even for subsequent purchase orders she creates. One of our developers was able to duplicate this issue in our Develpment system as well. We switch off the 'Repeat' (matchstick) under the Account Assignment tab for a line item, and then if we go to the next line, the 'Repeat' option shows as being on again. Then if we create a second purchase order, this 'Repeat' option is automatically on also.
We are on ERP 6.0 for EHP4 and have recently upgraded to Office 2007.
Does anyone know how to turn this option off again so it doesn't automatically stay on for the user? There doesn't seem to be any setting under the Personal Settings that would affect this.
Thanks for any help on this.

ApplescriptObjC: function that is always running?

Hi Community,
As much CPU as it will take up, I need a function that is always running. I tried making a function (called theTest for the sake of the test) that has a repeat block in it and displays some dialog every 3 seconds and then calling on it from the applicationwillfinishlaunching_(aNotification), but the application won't finish launching until the function I call on has finished running (which is never because of the repeat block). Does anyone know how i can make a function that is always running without having any interaction from the user? Or if there is already a function that does that that i don't know about? Thanks. Here's the code I tried:
          on applicationWillFinishLaunching_(aNotification)
                         theTest()
          end applicationWillFinishLaunching_
          on theTest()
       repeat
            repeat with i from 1 to 3
                                                       do shell script "sleep 1"
            end repeat
                                        display dialog "Test"
       end repeat
          end theTest

Ok, so it says this:
textDidChange:
Informs the delegate that the text object has changed its characters or formatting attributes.
- (void)textDidChange:(NSNotification *)aNotification
Discussion
The name of aNotification is NSTextDidChangeNotification.
Availability
Available in Mac OS X v10.0 and later.
Available as part of an informal protocol prior to Mac OS X v10.6.
Declared In
NSText.h
But how do I actually use it (sorry, I'm not too great with ObjC). Would i do something like:
on NSTextDidChangeNotification_(aNotification)
#stuff
end NSTextDidChangeNotification_
Also, how do i specify the text field? Thanks for the help
