How to determine the position in code after pause/abort

Hi there.
I've been searching for this for quite a while now, but I didn't find a solution, although I might just have looked in the wrong direction.
Problem is: I'm trying to find a way to see where my program was (i.e. which part of the code it was execution) the moment I click on pause or abort. (Like the "pause" button present in most modern IDEs, when pressed, it halts the tread and jumps to the code-line or ASM-instruction the CPU was executing).
The reason: I'm using LabView to control a few instruments to do some measurements on OPVCs. During long measurements involving multiple parameter-sweeps and hence numerous reconfigurations of both function generators and scopes, the program sometimes stops, or better "stalls".
That is, the front panel's still responsive, but the measurement stops. I don't know whether the problem is related to my program or the scope (it's a LeCroy 434 Wavesurfer) or the FG (a Tabor series) - but I cannot find out either because I don't know what the program did last. FYI: when watching the program's execution using the Execution Highlighting tool, the error doesn't show up, so I guess it's some sort of timing issue.
I'm currently installing the Execution Trace toolkit in the hope it will help, but still, any help would be great!
Thanks in advance

Do you have any other means to stop your program currently?
Yes, in theory... in the last few minutes I reviewed some code I wrote months ago when starting with the development and saw some possible dead-locks with the UI. I have two "Stop"-Buttons, one that stops the measurement and one that exits the wohle program, the latter via an event, the first get's polled in the measurement loop via reference. I read elsewhere that this might not be the best way of doing it, as accessing the UI outside the main event loop might cause some problems.
I've got some spare lab-time today and will look into this again, unfortunately I cann't test the OutputDebugString-Thingy on my development machine as it's on linux.
Anyway, it's quite exciting that I finally found a board where peopple really try to helpt, even if the questions ask might not be as constructive as theay could/should be. Thank you very much for that!
Generally it is best to keep UI elements out of your processing code. Not only will a property node force execution to the UI thread it also tightly couples your UI and processing tasks. The prefered method is to use some type of messaging to the processing tasks. This can be implemented using queues, notifiers or user events. Your processing tasks now have a defined interface for interacting with them which makes reuse of the code easier. It is also more maintainable since you can completely change the UI without requiring a change to the processing code.

  • How to determine the position of a word in a line

    hello
    i want to know the position of a word on which caret is at present or the position of the selected word in a line displayed in the JEditorPane. for example, if this line is displayed
    Java is an Object oriented Language.
    if i select "an" then its position i get must be 3. Select Java postion must be 1 and so on.
    thanx in advance
    -Ashish

    Hi,
    you can use a StringTokenizer to break the result of getText() of JEditorPane into words and simply count them until the caret postion is passed. Add a method like this in your JEditorPane subclass:
    public int whichWord() {
    String delimiters = "\n\t "; // checking for new line, tab and space as word breaks
    StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(getText(),delimiters,true);
    int pos = getCaretPosition();
    int count = 0;
    int len = 0;
    while ((len<pos)&st.hasMoreTokens())
    String s = st.nextToken();
    len += s.length();
    if (delimiters.indexOf(s)==-1) { count++; }
    return count;
    }Hope this helps - not tested, coded on the fly into this textbox.
    greetings Marsian

    Hi,
    "Position change is a transfer from one position to an equivalent position within the same org reporting structure and under the same chief position"
    How to determine the u2018equivalent position of the same organizationu2019?
    Cheers.

    u can identity the position with help of the Holder
    say for ex: A is the holder of the Position for Executive now the user performent an event called change of position so he changed to Manager (here we can find the chageing on the basis of some parameter so i have taken holder as Parameter as we dont know which has changed or wht has changed)
    in this case we can use the report   RHDESC20  se38
    not an exact solution for ur question
    will try to find some other way

  • How to determine the error code, returned from LDAP server

    I use the next code for connect to LDAP server:
            try{
                ctx = new InitialLdapContext(env, null);
                 //if connection successfull ...
            } catch (NamingException){
                 //if error occured ...
            }Is it possible to determine the numeric error code, returned from server?

    I was just working on using openldap, binding to it and checking for expired passwords and locked accounts and it looks like that an AuthenticationException is thrown in these circumstances and the ctx is null so it is not possible process connection response controls. But you can look at operation attributes if you have password policy enabled and you are looking for these type of errors

  • How to determine the solution's ID in absl?

    Hello Community,
    I have a simple question yet I fear there is no simple answer (possibly no answer at all).
    The question is:
    Does any body know ways how to determine the ID (e.g. Y123ABCDY_) of the solution the code is running in?
    My use case is the following:
    We have a solution template which will be deployed in different customer tenant.
    Thus, each deployment will have a different solution ID.
    Now, somewhere in code, we generat PDFs using the OutputManagementUtilities.GetPDF reuse library.
    This method requires the form template code of the pdf to be generated as a parameter.
    However, this PDF form template code is composed of the solution ID and a fixed suffix.
    Thus, currently I need to modify the absl code in each customer installation to manually modify the form template code prefix to the solutions solution ID.
    Therefore I'd like to construct the form template code in absl but for this I need a way to determine the solution's ID.
    Any ideas?
    Best regards,
    Ludger

    Hi Fernando.
    After reading your post I initially thought "what is the ObjectTypeCode" supposed to do any good to determine the solution ID"?
    Using the Object Type code of a custom bo is indeed a way to solve this problem.
    With a little additional code I can extract the relevant solution ID part from there.
    Thanks for the hint, that was really useful.
    Best reegards,
    Ludger

  • How can determine the duration of an audio file

    Hi,
    i'm making speech recognition project using java. i can capture sound by michrophone and playback it. the type of the sound is .wav.
    my question is how to determine the recording duration (for example: determine the duration for 0.25 second) because i must recorded syllable,the assumtion is needed less than 0.5 second to say a word. and then.. can this wav file be changed into... binary or integer ?
    thanks for your help

    FYI I'm newbie in Java,
    Yes, I want to limit the audio file lengths to a certain value. What should I do?
    I have read wav file using an AudioInputStream, for audio format I'm using sampleRate = 8000.0F and sampleSizeInBits = 8. My friend said if I used 8 bit for sampleSizeInBit (resolution in amplitude) the binary file should be -128 till 127 in range according to the bit. I try this code and the result is binary file which is zero, positive, and negative.
    the code
    try{
    audioInputStream.read(audioBytes);
    for (int i=0; i<audioBytes.length;i++){
    System.out.println(audioBytes);
    catch(IOException ioe){
    System.out.println("Error"+ioe);
    I'm not sure that the code is right, but it works. Should I change the audioBytes into integer before? I try this code but it doesn't work.
    int a = new int[audioBytes.length];
    for (int i=0;i<audioBytes.length;i++){
    a[i] = new Byte(audioBytes[i]).intValue();
    this binary file has been printed in console (I’m using texpad). So, how I can write that to file.txt? I'm using FileoutputStream but it doesn't work correctly. Here is the code
    FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(strFilePath);
    {audioInputStream.read(audioBytes);
    fos.write(audioBytes);
    catch (IOException ioe){
    System.out.println("Error"+ioe);
    When I open file .txt is read as character like this üüüüüüüüüüüüûüüüûüûûû ||||||| ||||||| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| &#1746;&#1746;&#1746;&#1746;&#1746;&#1746;&#1746;&#1746;&#1746;&#1746;&#1746;&#1746; (like using alt plus number)

  • How to determine the field size

    I am going to make a multiplatform application that hopefully
    will run on linux and windows 2000.If the os is 2000, then I will use
    vb.net/aspx else I'll use java servlets. I make the connection
    to the web server ( through HTTP) not directly to database server.
    So, the resultset will be stored in the String object. The columns
    will be separated by delimeter. Our problem is how to determine
    the size and type of the fields of mssql,oracle and postgres database
    so that we can include it in the String object.
    Ex.
    String sResultSet=new String();
    ResultSet rs=statement.executeQuery(sSQL);
    while(rs.next()){
    sResultset=sResultSet + rs.getString(field1) + "||" + rs.getString(field2) + "||";
    vertical bars acts as delimeter
    supposedly this is the code:
    sResultset=sResultSet + rs.getString(field1) +"_" + rs.getFieldType() + "_"+
    rs.getFieldSize() + "||" + rs.getString(field2) +"_" + rs.getFieldType() + "_"+
    rs.getFieldSize() + "||";
    supposedly this is the code if rs.getFieldType() and rs.getFieldSize() methods are existing
    Anyone can give me an idea how to get the field type and field size of the database?
    thanks in advance

    Yes, but I dont know how to do it.
    Can you give me an example of using it.
    Thanks in advance

  • EEWB :  how to determine the business object and the extension type ?

    Hi,
    I ask myself how to determine the business object and the extension type to use to add new fields in a new tab of a specific transaction ? what means each business object, does that correspond to a specific transaction ?
    I need to add a new tab in the ‘BaMI’ business activity in transaction CRMD_ORDER just after the tab 'Actions' at header level.
    Could you help me please to determine which business object and extension type I have to select during creation of the project and which business object category I have to select during creation of the extension (wizard) ?
    Thanks for your help,
    Marie

    Marie,
    In order to determine what type of transaction you are extending, you will need to look at the customizing for the transaction.
    In the IMG:
    Goto:
    Customer Relationship Management->Transactions->Basic Settings->Define Transaction Types.
    You will then choose the transaction defined that you want to extend.  If you display the details of the transaction you will find an attribute called:
    "Leading Transaction Category".  This tells you the general context in which the transaction is used.  The other item to view is the assignment of business transaction categories found in the maintenance screen.
    This information general corresponds to one of the options that the EEWB will give you on the transaction type.
    As far as extensions go, my recommendation is the following:
    - Use CUSTOMER_H Customer Header Extensions for any new fields at the header level.
    - Use CUSTOMER_I Customer Item Extensions for any new fields at the item level.
    Unless you have a specific requirement to extend a segment of the transaction, I recommend placing all new fields in these segments.  The CUSTOMER_H & CUSTOMER_I segments are considered "standard" segments, that are already built into all the necessary API structures. 
    Let me know if you have any further questions.
    Good luck,
    Stephen
