How to loging into the vision instance.

Hi gurus ,
I m new to oracle 11i and have manage to install the vision instance and it was succesfull how do i log in (11.5.5) i mean the url for vision and secondly do i need to install the j iniatiator or not.I dont know if it comes with the system or not.

For 11.5.5 installation, check 'config.txt' for all the parameters you set during the installation. It would help you to get the hostname/domainname/port or any other details.

How to inject a mocked dependency into the tested instance?

Hey
my StringGenerator class accesses the workspace being able to look up certain information from different files in the workspace. Now I'm writing an isolated unit test that should work without the eclipse workspace. Unfortunately I'm not able to inject the mocked dependency.
How do I inject the mocked instance of ResourceLookUp into the StringGenerator instance?
The class to be tested:
class StringGenerator {
@Inject extension ResourceLookUp resourceLookUp
def dispatch initStep(TestRequired o) '''
Test Case «o.name.testNameLookUp» (Test Case ID: «o.name») has been successfully performed.'''
The Test:
import static org.mockito.Mockito.*
@RunWith(JUnitParamsRunner)
class StringGeneratorInitialisationTest {
@Inject extension ValidationTestHelper validationTestHelper = new ValidationTestHelper
@Inject extension StringGenerator stringGenerator = new StringGenerator
@Inject extension ParseHelper<Model> parseHelper = new ParseHelper
@Before
def void before() {
var i = new TestStandaloneSetup().createInjectorAndDoEMFRegistration
i.injectMembers(parseHelper)
val resourceLookUp = mock(ResourceLookUp)
when(resourceLookUp.testNameLookUp("TEST XYZ")).thenReturn("TEST NAME AS STRING")
// how do I get this mocked ResourceLookUp instances injected into StringGenerator instance?
i.injectMembers(stringGenerator)
i.injectMembers(validationTestHelper)
// here comes my test ....
I was playing around with the debugger but could not find any solution
Thank you!

Hey,
noticed that the injection does not work completely as expected. The StringGenerator class gets the mocked ResourceLookUp instance.
class StringGenerator {
@Inject extension ResourceLookUp resourceLookUp
def dispatch initStep(TestRequired o) '''
Test Case «o.name.testNameLookUp» (Test Case ID: «o.name») has been successfully performed.'''
but if the test-case contains an error assertion like model.assertNoErrors my TestValidator gets called. Unfortunately the ResourceLookUp instance there is not the mocked one
class TestValidator extends AbstractTestValidator {
@Inject extension ResourceLookUp resourceLookUp
It somehow ignores my guice setup:
val mockedResourceLookUp = mock(ResourceLookUp)
when(mockedResourceLookUp.testNameLookUp("TEST XYZ")).thenReturn("TEST NAME AS STRING")
bind(ResourceLookUp).toInstance(mockedResourceLookUp)
and uses the "real" class for injection. Is there anything spezial about the dependency injection for the validator class?
Thank you.

Alter a BAPI Result Table, how to get into the display "loop" ?

Hello all,
i have a problem regarding the result rows of a RFC/BAPI Call.
There are three views, let's say 1,2,3. In View 1, i call a BAPI, and display the results in a table in View 2. I added a button in each row, which calls View 3 and displays some details concerning the selected row.
I now want to store a flag for each row, that has been displayed in this way.
In View 3 i store the key value of the displayed row in an own value node in the context.
When i go back from View 3 to View 2, i want to see that flag (in an extra column) in every row, that has been selected in this session.
So i do not know, how to alter a single row in the BAPI result table, how to get into the "loop" that is used by WD to display the table.
already tried a supply function, but i was not able to alter single rows.
Any suggestions/tips or perhaps code fragments of working supply functions ?
Thank you !

Hello,
I'm not sure whether I understood your problem correctly, but I will try to give an answer.
The easiest way I see is to copy the RFC Results to a Component Controller Context structure with an additional Flag field. You can use WDCopyService for copying.
Then on the event of selecting you set your flag as appropriate for you (e.g. if you want to use an image as flag you set the Image path) on the current element of your table. Then display View 3.
On going back View 2 should show now the new flag values...
The trick is to copy the values (as at Time structures can not be expandend with new fields) and set the Flag on the onSelect event.
Hope this helps,
Frank

Please can someone help, I have a question in my coursework that I don't know the answer to! Explain how PostScript fits into the design process?

Please can someone help, I have a question in my coursework that I don't know the answer to! Explain how PostScript fits into the design process?

The simple answer is that today PostScript really doesn't fit at all into the Graphic Design process, at least in terms of what the graphic designer needs to know.
Historically, though, the PostScript imaging model, first introduced circa 1984 provided the basis for the initial publishing software including PageMaker, Illustrator, QuarkXPress, and even Ventura Publisher. This imaging model included support for continuously scalable text, vector, and raster imagery as well as the concepts of a current transformation matrix that allowed arbitrary scaling, rotation, etc. and multiple color spaces (grayscale, RGB, CMYK, spot, device independent, and color-managed).
The PostScript imaging model was effectively replaced by the PDF imaging model, a significant superset of the PostScript imaging model, by the time Illustrator 9 and InDesign 2 were released in terms of support of ICC color management, transparency, etc.
The fact is that a good graphic designed doesn't need to know anything about PostScript or PDF per sé, but rather about the basics of color (such as issues associated with color gamut and what how that affects display and printing), use of text versus vector versus raster images and why one should keep content at the highest level of abstraction all the way to the rendering (or screen) or RIP process for printing. Some knowledge of typography also helps.

How can I access the "vision info" in an image

Hi,
Development Environment:
LabVIEW 2012 32-bit (12.0f3)
Vision 2012
Description:
I would like to get more information regarding the "vision info" in an image.
There is a VI called IMAQ Is Vision Info Present 2 - which tells me whether any vision info is present in the image.
But then what can I use to read or access this vision info, aside from using IMAQ Read Custom Data - or is this all there is?
ie. I have created a template in Vision Assistant using the Template editor and highlighted some mask areas - how can I open this up in LabVIEW and get this information?
The Vision help files don't seem to define this to a low level of detail.
Thanks!

Hi Christopher,
Have you tried our IMAQ Get Geometric Template features VI? Information on this VI can be found here: http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/370281P-01/imaqvision/imaq_get_geometric_template_features/
This VI will allow you to reference your created template image and returns the features of that image giving the ‘Feature Type’ and the associated data with that feature. This should allow you to access the data you need.

How to deal with the old instances of any class?

Hi,
I have a doubt regarding the old instances of any class. Currently i am designing a game in java swing. I have a new game button, which creates a new game instance of the game class. There might be conditions that the old game is finished and user has clicked for new game button. The old game instance is no more useful for me. In fact that old instance must be deleted from the memory and a new instance should reside in the memory until user again proceed for a new game.
I want to ask that how to destroy old instances of any class?
Thank you.

All you can do is remove any reference to it:
myGame = null;If that was the last reference then it will be eligible for garbage collection and it MAY be collected.And note that there's rarely a good reason to do this. In most cases, simply letting things go out of scope when the method that uses them ends is sufficient. About the only time you need to explicitly set something to null like this is, for example, if you're implementing a collection class and you want to remove an entry.

A network account take a long tme to be loged into the network

I still have the same problem but I got a new information:
I have a Mac Pro OS X 10.6.2 Server with several network accounts.
My boss does not want to use Mobility (from Workgroup manager -> Preferences)
I also have 6 iMacs 10.6.2 and about 9 users, in my group.
All of the users have an account on the server.
I also have a model called Master, from which I create a clone with CCC (Carbon Copy Cloner) and I installed all iMac with that clone.
Apparentely somme users are complaining that it take a while to log in to the server.
But it does not happen often.
Today some one reported me that it happens when some one has be loged with the iMac and another user came to the same iMac in order to be loged. At this time it take a while.
One of the user, told me, he always restart the iMac when he use the iMac after someone else.
From my Mister, I tried to be logged with different user, but I could not reproduce the problem.
Some one can help me to find the reason while, it take a while to be log into the server?
If you need more information, let me know?

How to insert "%" into the report figure in report painter/ drill down

Please kindly advice how to insert "%" in the calculated amount in the report painter/ drill down report.
Thank you
Sirirak

Hi,
Create a text variable (for query name, option available in query properties).
Processing Type would be Replacement path, replace with variable.
Give the variable name created for the selection box characteristic in 'Replace with variable' option.
This would replace value of the text variable with the user input value.
Hope this helps!

How do we retrieve the category instances matching a search expression?

Consider the following (simplified) example:
We archive consolidated reports. Reports come from different branches each containing the data for multiple departments. We create a category containing attributes for the branch, department, and report date. We apply multiple instances of the category to each report, one for each department contained in the report.
We can specify the department for our search and get back the reports with matching category instances; however, since the report dates are not necessarily predictable we can't qualify the search by date. What we'd like to do is retrieve the matching category instances and display them; the user would then select the desired instance to specify the report for retrieval.
We tried requesting the categories and custom attributes with the search, but it appears ContentDB first finds the qualifying reports then returns all the category instances on those reports--not just the ones that matched the search expression.
I see the SEARCH_FOR_DOCUMENTS, SEARCH_FOR_FOLDERS, etc. search options, but not one for SEARCH_FOR_CATEGORIES (or equivalent). Is there a way to retrieve just the category instances that matched the search expression?

Unfortunately no.
As you have found out, requesting Attributes.CATEGORIES on the document will return all category instances. You would currently need to do client-side processing to locate the specific matching category instance by recursing through the category item[] and checking first that the CATEGORY_CLASS matches, and second, the value of the particular category attribute matches.
If you are building a custom application front-end, maybe you could consider applying a single instance of some master category to the report that has a String array attribute containing all of the associated unique department ids to which the report applies.
Then having applied the 10.1.2.3.1 patchset (and in particular Enh 5171342 NEED SEARCH EXPRESSION SUPPORT FOR ARRAY TYPE CATEGORY ATTRIBUTES), you could quickly locate the reports of interest for a specific department.
The master category instance could also potentially contain an array of DeptID:CategoryInstanceId pairs that allow you to quickly retrieve a specific category instance given a department id.

Applet fails to load after loging into the system

How to continue into the future?

I'm starting to get worried.
After the fiasko with the Lion servers i bought, I'm facing a new dilemma.
I had bought the machines expecting something a bit more evolved that 10.6 server.
But we all know how that turned out.
===
I had then planned to replace my os x mail server with Exchange.
And why is that?
My mailserver seems to be damaging email addresses by adding questionmarks to them.
I have tried asking here and in other places about this without results.
I then started looking around on this website and others.
Only to realize that questions that go above a degree of complexity seem to remain unanswered.
Questions that some years ago were still receiving replies.
I then read the complains from other people and see that I'm not alone.
===
So I start looking into what is involved.
And stumble on the fact that using 10.7 client with Exchange seems to be working but that things will break once I upgrade to 10.8 client.
Ok so I consider to stick with 10.7 but then again I will be needing to buy new machines soon and those will contain 10.8.
Also I could switch to use the command line to administer the servers in order to set up my virtual domains etc.
But that isn't an option for someone that just occasionally needs to work on this.
Is Apple Marketing telling me that Apple products are only to be used in the home?
And that using them in a business environment is not an option anymore?
So what is the solution here?
Perhaps the host that display's such brilliance in editing our postings can answer this question?
Because, after this fiasko with server 10.7 and 10.8 I'm a bit clueless, as to what to tell my clients the next time a new machine needs to be purchased.
Kind regards
Hans

Actually I live in Iceland.
And despite the fact that I've been exclusively working with apple products for 25 years or so I would like to stress that over here a Mac only installation in Business is an illusion.
Next to all business software is windows based while the ease of use has for a long time now been associated with the products from apple.
For me this has changed during the last two weeks.
The upgrade to 10.7 server has just waisted more of my time and caused a longer shutdown of services than the combined time of shutdowns associated with our windows server, which we have been running for up to 10 years now.
The removal of open directory is causing me added work which I can probably get rid of by switching entirely to windows based servers.
And once the os x servers are gone there is not much reason to hang on to the macs, at least if the reports about problems in 10.8 in regards to connections to Exchange are true. Also we are running our business software in Terminal services and switching to Windows clients would probably lower our overhead considerably.
All the software we are using runs effortlessly on windows while using Mac's to run it is quite an overhead.
I have nothing against SMBX but delivering it half finished, or what ever, to the market isn't my idea of a positive firm image. And delivering the server application half finished with a windows 3.11 user interface doesn't do anything for me either.
===
Twenty years ago we could afford to be evangelists and believe that Apple, with an capital "A", was the good guy that was being smothered by the big, bad ms.
We believed in Apple to do whatever humanly possible to give us products that were innovative and cool.
Then came the day's of the Pepsi king. Overpriced, underpowered hardware and the humiliation that followed was next to unbearable.
Then came Steve Jobs and despite him being what and who he was, he grabbed the company by the hair and pulled it out of the ditch. Albeit with the help of many good people.
Then apple discovered consumer products and became the most valuable company being traded. However sometimes value is not only measured by money but rather by the image being displayed.
If apple wants to be all about making money and less about customer satisfaction then so be it.
Then they can just return to being apple with a small "a" like during and after the days of the Pepsi king.

As I said using windows machines would probably mean less overhead and if we want to go the apple way of thinking, for profit that is, switching to windows would probably be a no brainer.

I have yet to meet a windows system manager that doesn't, in one way or other, dread the addition of Macs to his environment.
