How to convert inode number to path (for Eudora to Mail conversion)

I've seen a header line in my Eudora client that has what I believe to be an inode number in it that represents a path:
X-Attachments: :Server:622049:style.css:
Server is the volume name and the 622049 appears to be the inode file system path to the folder containing the file. I want to find a programmatic way to do the conversion. For example, if in the Terminal, I issue this:
sudo find / -inum 622049 -print
Leopard does find the path:
/Users/trevor/Documents/Style Sheets
but also a whole lot of other guff such as:
find: /dev/fd/4: Not a directory
find: /net/localhost: Operation timed out
The reason is that I want to do a really clean move from Eudora to Mail, but I can't any application that works well AND converts outgoing attachment paths for Mail to use. The best application application I could find does not (yet) know how to translate the inode number to a path, so that the resulting messages in Mail have the correct OUTgoing message attachments (it converts incoming attachments just fine). Hence, it's in my interest (and possibly that of all others who want a complete conversion to Mail from Eudora) to do what I can to get the Eudora to Mail process convert BOTH incoming and outgoing attachments (which, to the best of my knowledge and search, no conversion tool can do at the moment).
Surely there is a direct, programmatic method (presumably the method used by Eudora) to get the path information. I want to send that method to the developer of the best tool I found.
Anyone know where I can find a reference to how to prgrammatically translate the inode number to the full path, so that the e-mail converter can grab the file quickly?
Thanks.

Hi, Christian:
Thank you for your message!
i used the type cast, but it seems VISA write can not recognize it, what is the problem?

Essbase 9.3 Calc scripts. Pb with dates. How to convert (string = number) ?

Hello,
I've a problem with Essbase(Planning?) Scripts on version 9.3. It looks simple but I do not find any (clean) solution :
On my Essbase database, I have a member called "Reference_Date" on my axis Indicators. It is a date data type, that is to say, it displays a number corresponding to a YYYYMMDD format. For example : 20091029 for October 29th 2009.
In calc scripts I often need to compare the month included in that "Reference_Date" with the current Member of my Time Axis (I have 12 Months members based on the format M02 for February for example). The final aim is to calculate a number of complete years since that "Reference_Date".
But theses two elements are not of the same "type" (one is a number value and the other is a "member" in Time Axis). So I'm forced to convert one of this two elements in order to compare it.
For example I can extract the month value of the "Reference_Date"' and put an "M" before it to have a Time member equivalent or I can convert the member Name M10 to a number (10))
in both cases I have the same type problem : I don't know how to convert a string into a number nor how to convert a number into a string.
(For example @CONCATENATE doesn't work with numbers). and that my only remaining problem.
I didn't find any Essbase Function which do this (conversion number <=>string).
Is anyone have an Idea ?
Thanks for your help
Best regards

I don't know any way for you to compare your data against your metadata. Not directly. To me it makes little enough sense to try that I'm not surprised the developers didn't provide for it.
I've converted member names to strings, manipulated the strings (calc script functions are not good at this), and turned them back into member names, but that's really the only use I've had for string manipulation. I don't think an equivalency operator even exists for string data. And I see no way to begin thinking of a member name, once converted to a string, as a number.
It makes even less sense to me to try thinking of a data value as a string. Even text values in Sys 11 are stored as numbers. Not encoded characters, but just a number to look up somewhere.
I think you can do what you want though, with something like this...
IF (@ISMBR("FY08"))
vYr = 2008;
ELSEIF (@ISMBR("FY09"))
vYr = 2009;
ENDIF;
IF (@ISMBR("M01"))
vMth = 1;
ELSEIF (@ISMBR("M02"))
vMth = = 2;
ENDIF;
"Years_Since_Reference" = ((vYr * 100) + Mth) - ("Reference_Date" / 12);
Obviously, the math will need some work, coz that doesn't actually work, but the logic above essentially turns your metadata into numbers, which is what you are after.
Good luck,

How to convert a number to FLOAT with 9 decimal values.

Hi all,
I need to convert a number like '10.02' to a floating point number with 9 decimal values like '10.022111221'. I think that the right function is TO_BINARY_FLOAT, but how can I obtain 9 decimal values? If I use the following syntax:
select TO_BINARY_FLOAT(num) from table
I obtain a floating point values with a variable number of decimal numbers after the ".", instead I need 9 number after ".".
Regards,
Maurizio.

Hi,
the number I need to select is the result of a product, for example:
select (Num_A * Num_B) from Table;
Num_A has 2 decimal numbers, like 12.01 and Num_B could be: 12.111111111.
Now, Num_A * Num_B = 653.999999994
but I issue:
select TO_BINARY_FLOAT(54.00 * 12.111111111) from Table
I obtain:
654, a rounded value, but I need 653.999999994.

Create a formula and paste the following into it (sorry I use Basic Syntax):
'Ive laboured a point here a bit so you can get an idea of what you can do.
'Heres 3 variables - one with your duration and two others for hours and minutesshared xDuration as numbershared xHours as numbershared xMins as number
'Put some data into the duration and calculate the hours and minutesxDuration = 125xHours = truncate(xDuration/60)xMins = remainder(xDuration,60)
'You can then use the variables to get a string with unformatted hours and mins'formula = xHours + "hours " + xMins + "Mins"
'or you format the hours and minutes nicely'formula = CStr(xHours,0) + "hours " + CStr(xMins,0) + "Mins"
'or you can make it all into one formula without the need for xHours and xMins variablesformula = CStr((truncate(xDuration/60)),0) + "hours " + CStr(remainder(xDuration,60),0) + "Mins"

How to convert .MOD files into .DV for iMovie import

I am urgently (and desperately) trying to import some .MOD files into iMovie 09 for editing. They were made on a JVC cam, but I only have them on HDD now. I tried renaming files to .avi, but still cannot import them. I used Handbrake to convert to mp4 files and can import them now, but quality seems to be reduced even though destination file size is similar.
Can anyone tell me how to convert the .MOD files to .DV files easily? I have read about the ffmpeg tool that you can use in the Terminal, but am not confident to do this as have never used Terminal !
Any help and advice would be very much appreciated.
MikeC

I have a JVC everio 30 GB hard drive video camera and I'm trying to convert the videos as well. Mine are also in mod format and my computer won't convert it either. Should I upgrade to quicktime pro 7 for $30 or just pay $20 for the mpeg-2 add-on? This is for a family camera that is used mainly for occasional family vacations/get together's. No editing, I just want to get these off the camera's hard drive because the hard drive is running out of space and I wanna be able to make them into DVDs so we have a hard copy in case anything happens to my laptop. I'm not sure which is better for my use? The add-on is cheaper but is there other advantages for me to get pro?
Thanks for the help

I know how to convert WMA to AAC/MP3 for Itunes

I'm not sure if someone else has figured this out or not, but I figured out how to convert WMA files to AAC or MP3 for Itunes. First open the file using Quicktime. I think you need the Flip4Mac program. I'm not sure and you also need Quicktime pro. Choose Save. Select standalone movie. Choose location. It will convert song to movie, then import all your movies you selected. Organize Itunes by "Kind". Select all of your new movies files. Choose Advanced and convert to your appropriate file type.
I looked for a while and couldn't find a good way to change wma to aac. This takes a little bit, but it works. What do you think? It works for me.

Or, as has been pointed out in numerous posts, you can use EasyWMA.

How to find out import & export path for object migration between D Q & P?

Hi guys!
Is there a way, how to find out export and import path for object transport on XI?
Thanx!
Olian

Hi,
Have a look at these links.
When we do an export of the IR or the ID Oblects, a typical path at which it gets exported in the XI Server is as follow:
For IR Objects:
C:\usr\sap\PI1\SYS\global\xi\repository_server\export
For ID Objects:
"C:\usr\sap\PI1\SYS\global\xi\directory_server\export"
Now in case you need to import the ".tpz" that you have.... You need to place it in the path mentioned below and u will be able to do import it from IR or ID...
For IR Objects:
C:\usr\sap\PI1\SYS\global\xi\repository_server\import
For ID Objects:
"C:\usr\sap\PI1\SYS\global\xi\directory_server\import"

How to convert a number stored as text to as integer with formating

Hi,
Can someone say me how to convert a Numeric data that is stored in a Varchar column to an integer.
Say, I have a Value "-.84566666" in a column which is of data type VARCHAR and I want to show this data as "-0.8456", i.e. I want to display it as an Interger after formating it to have only 4 decimal place value etc.
Is there any inbuilt function in oracle for this?
Thanks,

Take a look at builtin TO_NUMBER / TO_CHAR functions.
SELECT TO_CHAR(TO_NUMBER('-.84566666'), 'SD9999')
FROM dual;C.

How can I specify an area path for the work item created on build failure?

In our department we are working with multiple build definitions for different parts of one Team project. We heavily use the Team Project feature. Teams are defined by area path nodes, so each team can only see it's area path. No one (except the admins)
can see the root project node.
When a build breaks, TFS generates a Bug. Unfortunately, this bug is assigned to the area path root node, so nobody can see the generated bug and act on it.
We would prefer to specify the area path for the generated work item in the build definition (not template, but property of a build definition), as every build belongs exclusively to one team.
I have found that you can populate fields of the generated work item by filling the "custom fields" of the "create work item" activity. But how do I set the area path as a parameter?
Guenter

Hi Cuenter,
Thanks for your post.
You should set the value like below in that activity:
New
Dictionary(Of
String,
String)
From {{"Area
Path",
"teamprojectname\areaname"}}

How to check the number of licences for ODI

Hi,
I would like to know , how to check the number of licences exists for my current OID.
ODI Version: 11.1.1

ODI licensing is similar to Oracle DB licensing. Its licensed by the number of cores in your target database.
So, count the number of CPUs in your target box. Multiply them by the core factor (x86 vs sparc, etc) and then match with the paperwork you have :D
