How should I deal with it in the BMM Layer

Hi all,
I need a suggestion in a problem.
Here is the scenario,
In the physical layer, There are some fact to fact joins.
ProductFact ----< PolicyFact ----< PolicyCoverFact ----< ClaimFact ----< ClaimPaymentFact ----< CorrespondenceFact
There are some conformed dimension tables given below
Geography is joined to ProductFact, ClaimFact
Organisation is joined to PolicyCoverFact, CorrespondenceFact
Currency is joined to PolicyFact, ClaimPaymentFact
Also there are non-conformed dimensions such as,
ProductType is joined to ProductFact
PolicyCoverType is joined to PolicyCoverFact
and there are many more......What I know is when there are fact to fact joins, we should make a logical table in the BMM layer and add both fact tables to the same LTS, But in this case, almost all the fact tables are joined directly.
How should I deal with these fact to fact joins in the BMM layer? Any suggestions?

have I understood correctly? Is that what you mean?Yes, the reason why I said to "keep" the firsts fact table in each source is to make the dimension work.
For example, if the "product dimension" is only linked to "product fact", but not "policy fact" then you won't be able to do a report based on "product dimension" and "policy fact". Right ? To be able to do this report, OBIEE must do a join with "product fact" (this fact table become an intersection table). That's why you will add product fact in the "policy fact" source. Same for others source.
But the name of "ProductFact & PolicyFact" source can be "policy fact". Because each row of this source is a policy fact.
For the 3rd table, each row is a "policy cover fact". But to be able to join with "product dimension" and "policy dimension", you need to integrate "policy fact" and "product fact" tables in the logical source.
and so on.

How should I deal with FTP permissions?

Ok, I'm not sure what would be the best way to deal with this. I have folders set up for several websites that each have a different user that administrates them. So I set each of the intended users home to the website root, and gave them ownership of the folder and it's files. I also have FTP set to chroot to the home directory.
I have run into a couple problems with this.
- First, if they were so inclined, the users could log in via SSH or an SCP program and get outside of their home directory. I would prefer that they were unable to. Can I set their shell to ftponly or something as such?
- Second, I have an on site admin that is often called on by the website clients to make small changes to their site. And I'm not sure how to set up his access so that he can have the ability to FTP in, have full rwx access to the users files, overwrite them, and go about his business without having to than do a chown on the new files so that they are all owned by the end user. Is there an easy way to do this, or should I write a perl script that either triggers on his logout or that he can run, to set the chmod/chown correctly after he's done.

How should one deal with sub-projects?

Hello to all!
Let me first clarify my title-question.
On my current project I faced software malfunction [FCPX quitting] when I reached 17 minutes of building the video on the timeline. [As a reference, allow me to call this 17-minute part of the video in making as the main project.]
Remembering from an earlier thread [? Mr. Russ being the contributor], I opted to continue the project as a separate project which I seek to call as the sub-project Now even this sub-project is of a 14 minute duration and I have need to start a sub-project 2.
I would now like to be guided as to how to deal with these sub-projects while editing the video and after finishing the project.
Firstly, while editing. My present plan is to complete the project's video utilising as many sub-projects as needed, and then add the sub-projects to the main project. This done, I intend to add voiceover for the completed project. During this process, my questions are this...how do I add the sub-projects onto the main project? If I select and copy/paste the sub-project, it gets added as 'connected clips'...this is okay if one can export the project as such. But, when a voiceover has to be added, further retiming of the clips are called for and at this stage problems arise. Now, as I am writing this, it is striking me that I could make this added sub-project as a secondary storyline, get done with the retiming after the voiceover is added, and export the project. Have not done this before and would like guidance from senior contributors in this issue.
Secondly, when the project is exported and is being archived, do I need to have all the sub-projects or delete them to save drive-space?
Thanks in advance.
Have a great day.

Thanks Karsten for this further instructions. The present project I am working on is being done as a race against time. Faced a problem when dealing with a stack of generator clips one upon the other and each clip being given different commands regarding changes in position and rotation. Beyond the 17 minute mark, one click upon the parameter in the inspector window, and the application quit. When this quitting became a regular feature, I just remembered a thread in which one contributor wrote that he usually divides his projects into 10 minute bits before making up the whole project. Not willing to spend time further on this problem, being in a very 'creative frame mode' I simply continued working upon the project by starting up a 'sub-project'.
Regards and take care.

How should I deal with exceptions?

I have three possible choices that I see:
(1) Deal with them in an exception handler class. Use try/catch/throw in the class. Have throw call a method in the exception handler class.
(2) Use try/catch/throw and handle the exception in the same class where the exception occurs.
(3) Use throws and deal with the exceptions in the mediator class. The mediator class allows for communication between my FileHandler class, my DBHandler class, my UIClass, and any future classes.
Note that for each exception, I want to call a method in the UI class that displays a message to the user about the error so it can be debugged and a method in some class to write the error to an error log text file.

Handling
can mean as little as logging the error.I'm gonna have to go ahead and disagree with youthere, %.
Disagree with me? This cannot be tolerated! 8)Watch it, lest yet get yer ass smote.
Except for where you're intentionally
smothering exceptions in finally blocks, or maybe
just recording an InterruptedException, justlogging
it is little better than smothering it. So what about unchecked exceptions? Are these .NET
demon spawn?I let unchecked exceptions bubble up. I'd expect an appserver to catch and log them, so that a bug in one app doesn't cause the whole server to barf. But other than that kind of situation, these are exceptions that you usually shouldn't try to handle.
>
I'm curious, since this thread is so much about
handling exceptions. What do people do besides
report them? If you get a SQL exception, what
recovery actions are you taking? Anything that I'm
missing?Usually it just bubbles up, or it's a wrapped in a more appropriate or layer-specific exception and rethrown. Sometimes there might be a retry, but usually the exception bubbles up to the higher layers and gets presented to the user as something like, "Could not connect. Retry?" What I hate to see is this:
try {
// get stuff from the DB
catch (SQLExeption exc) {
// log it
// Continue here (where "here" may be the calling method)
// with no idea that anything went wong.If you do that, you might as well not have an exception mechanism. Just go back to return codes and don't bother checking them.

How can I deal with long sql by the oo4o?

I am using VB and oo4o to develop a sql executor which is a extention of an old system.
For some reason, I have to use oo4o v8.1.7 to deal with Oracle Database 8i to 11g.
But when I send a very long sql(11KB) to it I got a error in the VB enviroment.
The Err.Description is "automention error. Started object is disconnected by the client.".
The Err.Number is "-2147417848 ".
The sql that I send it to the program is a simple select sql that like select a, b, c, substrb(d, 1, 2), substrb(e, 2, 3) .... from A_TBL where A=aa;
This sql is normally executed by the sqlplus but I got an error by the oo4o.
When I insert a '' between the 30Xth items, it got exectuted normally.
ex. select a, b, c, substrb(d, 1, 2), substrb(e, 1, 2) ..... substrb(303th, 3, 4), '', substrb(304th, 1, 2) ... from A_TBL where A = aa;
How can I deal with this problem? Thanks.

So how can use this function correctly?By learning what exceptions are, how they're used, and what you can do to deal with them. There's a tutorial here: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/exceptions/index.htmlAnd here's a quick overview:
The base class for all exceptions is Throwable. Java provides Exception and Error that extend Throwable. RuntimeException (and many others) extend Exception.
RuntimeException and its descendants, and Error and its descendants, are called unchecked exceptions. Everything else is a checked exception.
If your method, or any method it calls, can throw a checked exception, then your method must either catch that exception, or declare that your method throws that exception. This way, when I call your method, I know at compile time what can possibly go wrong and I can decide whether to handle it or just bubble it up to my caller. Catching a given exception also catches all that exception's descendants. Declaring that you throw a given exception means that you might throw that exception or any of its descendants.
Unchecked exceptions (RuntimeException, Error, and their descendants) are not subject to those restrictions. Any method can throw any unchecked exception at any time without declaring it. This is because unchecked exceptions are either the sign of a coding error (RuntimeException), which is totally preventable and should be fixed rather than handled by the code that encounters it, or a problem in the VM, which in general can not be predicted or handled.

Don't download MacKeeper. Users complain about this app and it damages OS X. Also, Mac OS X knows how to take care of itself, so you don't need any other cleaning application that may damage OS X. See > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3691

How Oracle to deal with the data lose?-----QNo.104

In incomplete recovery,some data will be lost. How Oracle to deal with it?
For example, at 9:00am, you find that it is a mistake to drop a user(you dropped it at 8:30am). But other users' transactions are in progress. A lot of data is input between 8:30 and 9:00. If decide to make a incomplete recovery, does this means all the data input between 8:30 and 9:00 will be lost?

For example, at 9:00am, you find that it is a mistake to drop a user(you dropped it at 8:30am. But the transactions are in progress. To make you clear, you can't drop the user while session connected to this schema.
I dont think that you would loose any data.
The other workaround for this issue would be,
I would clone this on other server just before the user dropped, take the export and then import the user in the production.
Is this satisfy your question?

TS1539 How do we deal with Error 50 when downloading a movie rental then stopped with error 50 and when I try to resume the downld, it doesn't do it?

How do we deal with Error 50 when downloading a movie rental then stopped with error 50 and when I try to resume the downld, it doesn't do it?

Yeah this "fix" is bunk. The movie is downloading just fine, but the extra features is the one giving me this error code. It is NOT my firewall. If it was, then both files wouldn't download. Plus, I already have the firewall "issue" tacked down and fixed. Have had it fixed for months now. No, this is due to the "new" itunes version 11 software. The only conclusion to fix this issue is UPgrading from 11 back to 10.7 which is what I am going to do. This is completely ridiculous! Come on, Apple, get itunes working once and for all, and fire the people responsible for itunes 11, just like you did to the guy who was responsible for apple maps. Thankfully Google came back to the rescue with google maps app.
