How to obtain USB current in Labview

Using Windows Device Manager and selecting the USB HUB, you are able to see the current consumption of your USB devices.
See attached photo.
Is there any way to programmatically obtain this value using Windows DLL calls in Labview or Labview property calls ?
Thank you

You can only see what the device is RATED to consume. This is not an actual consumption value.
It is possible to get this programatically but I doubt it will give you the information you are looking for....

I own a copy of lightroom 5 (a download copy) and have had to install a new hard disk. I can't remember how I got the current copy but I think I may have downloaded a monthly rental copy because the program is asking me to pay a subscription fee. I was expecting to get a message to install my serial numbers.

You downloaded the trial version for the creative cloud. It doesn't work with a serial number. It is licensed differently. You will have to uninstall it and then download and install from here:

How to use USB interface with LabVIEW Embedded for ARM

Hi everybody.
I am developing an application based on the "LabVIEW Embedded for
ARM". Now I am doing various tests using
the evaluation board 2300 (with NXP LPC2378), but soon I will
dedicate to program the micro used in my project (NXP
LPC2148).
During the tests, I have seen that "default" LabVIEW interface allows the use
of CAN, I2C and SPI interfaces of the micro. I want to know how can I also use the
USB interface that is on the micros -both LPC2148 and LPC2378- (pin USB_D + / D-, USB_UP_LED,
USB_CONNECT, VBUS).
Thanks in advance for your suggestions

If you've created an application in LabVIEW for ARM and you build it.
you can go to tools >> ARM Module >> Show Keil uVision
then go to he build options.
the hex file will be created when you do a build.
with flash magic :http://www.flashmagictool.com/
you can program your device.

Thanks,
DanielYes there is a way.
A far quicker way of getting an answer to such a basic question is to consult the API documentation at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/
If you have already looked and couldnt fin the answer then have a look at the methods inherited.

Is there any API to obtain the current Folder ID where the user is located??

how can obtain the current folder id where the user is?
tks in advance

Folder Id is one of the attributes you can pass to a custom item
type procedure. In the custom item type, go to the Procedures
tab. At the bottom of the page, under "Pass Attributes as
Parameters" select Folder Id from the list. Under "Pass As" you
have to provide the name of the parameter in your custom
procedure.
For example, here is a procedure that displays a list of
subfolders for a given folder:
<pre>
create or replace procedure SCOTT.DISPLAY_SUBFOLDERS AS
p_folderid IN VARCHAR2,
p_siteid IN VARCHAR2)
as
begin
for c in
(select '<a href="PORTAL30.wwv_main.main?p_cornerid=' || f.id
|| '&p_siteid=' || f.caid || ">'
|| f.display_name || '</a>' theURL
from portal30.wwsbr_all_folders f, portal30.wwv_user_corners c
where c.id = f.id
and c.parentid = p_folderid
and f.caid = p_siteid ) loop
htp.p(c.theURL || '<br>');
end loop;
exception
when others then
null;
end;
</pre>
This procedure takes both the folder id and the site id as
parameters.

How to detect USB Flash Drive name in LabVIEW

Hi there
I was looking for how to detect a USB Flash Drive name in Labview
appearently every time i insert USB Flash Drive in a computer, windows assign it a different name
once "J:" and sometimes "M:"
Is there anyway to obtain USB Flash Drive name programmatically in Labview ?
Because in my program an user shouldn't be able to access HDD Drives except his USB Flash Drive (for inserting some file ...)
thank you and excuse me for my poor english

I was able to get the demo.vi to load, but it could not load the other two because there is no block diagram associated with those. I'm not sure why this is. I haven't had any issues with other llbs before.

How to obtain current location with in a flow

Hi,
This might be very basic level query, but i cant figure it out.
I want to extract the location with in a flow. ie in my proxy service i have multiple stages and with in each stage i am using some log actions to print some statements. I can see the log statement does shows the location where the 'log' is generated from. something like this
<ERROR> <ALSB Logging> <BEA-000000><*[Message Flow Pipeline, Message Flow Pipeline_request, stage1]*> My Message
My Query is how i can obtain this string "*[Message Flow Pipeline, Message Flow Pipeline_request, stage1]" , in some variable, in my flow in case i need to log my current location somewhere.
Many thanks for your help!
sall

thanks guys!
I had already looked for any context variable which could provide the current location but no success!
The business scenario is:
Proxy request pipleline has saveral stages, from within each stage i have to make a java callout, which is basically a internal logging mechanism, with current location.
Currently i am using hard coded string value e.g. "[JMS Flow Pipleline, JMS Flow Pipeline_request, Stage 1]" or "[JMS Flow Pipleline, JMS Flow Pipeline_request, Stage 2]", which is pretty pathetic. Any ideas how can we obtain the current location, within a flow, and assign it to some variable like location etc???
I would like to use something like '$input/@name' which returns some string "ProxyServices$Template$Services$ProxyService"
I hope this explains bit more, however let me know if you need more clarification.
thanks

How can I capture live video and still image by a DirectX compatible USB webcam using LabView ?

Dear forum members
   I'd like to design a user interface which shows a live video and capture still images for it by a DirectX compatible USB webcam using LabView or NI Vision Toolkit, how can I do this ? and If this is possible How can I reach the webcam DirectX filter properties and set them using LabView ? I would be grateful to anyone Who lead me to the correct solution.
    Sincerely
    Cem DEMiRKIR

Cem,
    With our example programs you can acquire and save an image (IMAQ >> File Input and Output >> Snap and Save to File.vi) from one camera, if you double the VI's to create the image and the image task, you can easily have one program acquire and save for two cameras.
    I may need more information on what you mean by calibration. Do you mean basic camera setup? That can be done in Measurement and Automation Explorer by setting up the options within the IMAQ settings for each camera. Or do you mean more complex calibration for special types of images? The more description of what you mean, the better I will be able to help you get it done. You mentioned zoom and motion parameters, what kind of motion? Our vision drivers only control triggering the camera to acquire, then analyzing, processing and displaying the resulting image.
    If you have more details on exactly what you want to do, that would be great. Let me know if you have more questions, thanks!

Does anyone know how to comunicate with a USB port using labview 6?

Does anyone know how to comunicate with a USB port using labview 6?

Unfortunately, there is no way to communicate directly with a USB port before LabVIEW 7.0 and VISA 3.0. With the new releases, there are functions called "VISA USB Control In" and "VISA USB Control Out" that give you direct access to a USB port.
You can definitely communicate with DAQ, Serial, or GPIB devices that are connected through a USB port, though. This is done seamlessly through the NI-DAQ, NI-Serial, and NI-488.2 drivers.

How to obtain the Subject from the current context ?

Im working on a SSO project and everything is fine with getting the Principal from a HttpServletRequest object or from an EJBs SessionContext. But, I have some business logic that is not necessarily behind a SLSB (as a façade patter) and I dont want to propagate the Principal reference from Presentation to the Business Layer. Thats why, I would like too know if OC4J has some sort of utility to get the current authenticated Subject.
Thanks for your help

How to determine the current update level of the system

How can we determine the current update level of the system. uname -a shows the release but how to obtain the update level through a program?
I have this sample program to display the version
#include <iostream>
#include <sys/utsname.h>
#include <dirent.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
struct utsname osinfo;
// Call uname to get system info, then extract strings.
uname(&osinfo);
if (osinfo.machine) {
    cout<<" Machine : "<< osinfo.machine;
if (osinfo.sysname) {
    cout << "\nOS Name : " << osinfo.sysname;
if (osinfo.release[0] != '\0') {
    cout<<"\nRelease : " << osinfo.release;
}My aim is to check if the Solaris box is 5.10 update 4 or not.

How to obtain the row data in the component datatable?

if I want to edit a row data, and then know which row is edited in the component datatable, and how to do?
How to obtain the row data in the component datatable, and update it to database, not simplely edit a simple table
Any ideas? Thanks

Thank you very much for your help Alexander !
It's quite confusing when you leave Struts and try to adapt your projects for JSF for the first time...
I wanted to click on a row with a "onMouseClick" on the TR tag like I used to do in Struts/JSTL. But it seems to be impossible in a dataTable.
Ok then. I've added a column at the end of the row with an icon.
But eventually I didn't need to declare link parameters.
In my BackingBean I did like this :
public String selectEventForUpdate() throws IllegalAccessException, InvocationTargetException {
        PortletAgenda event = (PortletAgenda) JSFUtils.getInRequestMap("event");
        BeanUtils.copyProperties(this, event);
        return null;
   }JSFUtils.getInRequestMap(...) is a method I wrote in a util object :
public static Object getInRequestMap(String name) {
        Object res = null;
        Map requestMap=FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRequestMap();
        if (requestMap!=null) {
            res=requestMap.get(name);
        return res;
} " event " is the name of the item in my dataTable list.
My backingBean has the same attributes as "event".
So when the page is reloaded I have a backingBean full with the selected properties to edit/update.
Thanks to your reply I realized that putting this form in the middle of the dataTable seems to be impossible.
So I put this form in a floating DIV in front of the table with a shadow.
It works :o) !
But I'm a little bit disapointed to be honest...
I used to build my web applications with Struts and JSTL and doing this kind of interface was really easy.
I've decided 3 days ago to convert into JSF because the "GUI Layer" seemed to be improved.
But now I realize that I cannot put a onMouseOver and onMouseClick on a row and I cannot display a different row in the middle of a table....
I think it's a shame because there is a facet for header and footer.
And it would be great if we could create our own personal facet that appears only if a condition is true.
For exemple " if the current item id is the same as the request parameter id then display the following facet content ....... (with a panel group and a form inside to update the row) "
It's easy to do that with JSTL thanks to c:forEach and c:if but it seems to be impossible to use JSTL tags like this during the dataTable iteration.
And JSF tags seems to have no logical tags like " if " or loops that can be nested in dataTable.
I really need to realize this interface (you click on a row then an edit form appears where you clicked).
Do I have to write a component myself that extends dataTable?
Do you know if writing such a component is hard to do for a beginner like me?
(I've juste discovered JSF 3 days ago and I've used Struts/JSTL for 2 years til now)
I'd be glad to have much advices from you about that.
Regards

A very simple question: how to obtain the mail server name?

In our JSP application, at one point an email will be sent to notify one event. Currently, that is done by using the html tag: mailto. To have more control on the email in tems of context format (a bad layout right now) and others. I would like to have it processed at servlet by using the JavaMail API, so that it have a nice format and have the sender's email address right in case email client is not installed in the machine where the browser in. The JavaMail API is straight forward. The question is how to obtain the mail server name, and the sender's email address if there is one?
Thanks.

How to obtain the mail server's name? It's your server, you should know its name. Or if it isn't your server, you should ask the administrator for its name. Point is, you need to decide in advance what server you are going to use and hard-code its name into the program or into a properties file.
And how to obtain the client's e-mail address? You have to ask the client, probably by putting a box in the HTML and asking them to type it.
