How to specify a unique integer for each local variable defined in TestStand?

I have a .net application that reads all TestStand local variables, but for the .net application each local variable should have a unique integer number. Iterating through the locals and storing the index is not a good solution, because if a local variable is moved or deleted, the index will change.
Does anyone know how to do this in TestStand or having an idea how to this in my .net application?
Thanks.

Thanks Doug for your reply. Using a GUID is not an option because this ID is too long. I will try to explain why I need this ID for. I have a lot of C# code that generates code to deal with a lot of instruments. For example to configure a device, user defined variables can be used to specify some settings or to store results. These variables are not stored in the generated code with a name but with an integer number. Now I want to try to be use all our existing device driver code with the TestStand sequencer. So, I need a translation between the name of a TestStand local variable and an integer number. After constructing the interface to my code I want to read all the variables from TestStand and now I need the integer ID to do the mapping to my variables. I know that I can use use your proposition 2 by encoding the unique ID into the name of the variable and parse the name of the variable to get it back, but this is not an automated way. This will be rather difficult if there are several hundreds of variables. For this reason I am looking for an alternative way. Looking forward for your response. Best regards

How to have a unique value for each record??

How to generate a unique value for each record.??

could any 1 help me out in this...
I want to have a column name 'Order No' which should be unique.
How to generate a unique value for each record.?? If you are using SQL PLUS to create the table try something like
this:
CREATE TABLE ORDER_TEST (
ORD_NO NUMBER (8) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
ORDERDATE DATE,
CUSTID NUMBER (8) NOT NULL,
SHIPDATE DATE,
TOTAL NUMBER (8,2) CONSTRAINT TOTAL_ZERO CHECK
(TOTAL >= 0),
CONSTRAINT ORD_FOREIGN_KEY FOREIGN KEY (CUSTID) REFERENCES
CUSTOMER (CUSTID),
CONSTRAINT ORD_UNIQUE UNIQUE (ORD_NO)
-- or a simpler table example
DROP TABLE ORDER_TEST;
CREATE TABLE ORDER_TEST (
ORD_NO NUMBER (8),
ORDERDATE DATE,
CUSTID NUMBER (8) NOT NULL,
SHIPDATE DATE,
TOTAL NUMBER (8,2) CONSTRAINT TOTAL_ZERO CHECK
(TOTAL >= 0),
CONSTRAINT ORD_UNIQUE UNIQUE (ORD_NO)
note: ORD_NO can also be a primary key
If you are doing the INSERT during runtime from a form first
create a sequence in SQL PLUS to handle the ORD_NO value:
Create SEQUENCE ORDERNO_UNIQUEVAL_sqnc
START WITH 000001
NOMAXVALUE
NOCACHE;
and reference it as the ORD_NO parameter in your INSERT
statement:
ORDERNO_UNIQUEVAL_sqnc.NEXTVAL
note: to maintain data integrity you must use the sequence
everytime you insert a new order to table. To start a new
sequence drop the sequence and re-create it with whatever "START
WITH" value you want.
Hope this helps

How to Genarate a Unique ID for each Payload in XI

Hi,
My Question is How to Genarate Unique ID for each Paylod that we send in a particular Interface.
Is that we can do it in Mapping...If Yes, How its possible...
Thanks
Amaresh

Hi Amaresh !
XI generates and stamps a messageID to each message header. That ID is unique. You could use that one. To get that number from inside message mapping to put it in the payload, you could use a java UDF with this code:
String msgid;
java.util.Map map;
map = container.getTransformationParameters();
msgid = (String) map.get(StreamTransformationConstants.MESSAGE_ID);
return msgid;
Of course you can generate another number, but maybe you will need to use a common storage to avoid repeating the assigned numbers, and that will require more work.

How to specify the XML Declaration for an XML variable

I need to set the XML declaration for my XML variable as
follows:
var employees:XML =
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<employees>
<employee ssn="123-123-1234">
<name first="John" last="Doe"/>
<address>
<street>11 Main St.</street>
<city>San Francisco</city>
<state>CA</state>
<zip>98765</zip>
</address>
</employee>
<employee ssn="789-789-7890">
<name first="Mary" last="Roe"/>
<address>
<street>99 Broad St.</street>
<city>Newton</city>
<state>MA</state>
<zip>01234</zip>
</address>
</employee>
</employees>;
However, if I specify <?xml version="1.0"
encoding="utf-8"?>, I get a design time and compile error. If I
remove it it works fine. But the server to which I send this XML is
expecting the declaration. Can somebody help me with this?
Thanks

I work mostly with the Java versions of the parser so you'll have to make the translation to C++. As far as I know, you can't use the SAX API to access to the encoding.
You need to use the DOM along with Oracle's extension to the basic DOM functionality. Oracle's package, oracle.xml.parser.v2 defines a class which implements the Document interface called XMLDocument. This class has a method, getEncoding(), which returns the encoding. You would use the method in getDocument() in the Parser base class inherited by DOMParser to retrive the XMLDocument.

If I have two email accounts, one personal hotmail account and one MS Exchange work account, how can I setup individual notifications for each account. Right now, any email from any account has the same notification. I want work to be different than perso

If I have two email accounts, one personal hotmail account and one MS Exchange work account on my iPhone 4s, How can I setup individual notifications for each account? Fore example, if I get a work email, I want to hear a DING, DING....If I get a personal email, I want to hear a BEEP, BEEP. Right now, any email from any account has the same notification. I want work incoming email notification to be different than personal incoming notification. The only semi-workaround I've seen is just disable any notification for the Hotmail account, so only work emails would notify. But then I don't know when I get a personal email. Even the lowely Blackberry Torch 9800 has this feature..not iPhone 4s??
Thanks

Sorry you get only one notification sound for all email accounts. you can send a suggestion to apple here http://www.apple.com/feedback/

How to create different log files for each of web applications deployed in OC4J

Hi All,
I am using OC4J(from Oracle) v1.0.2.2 and Windows2000. Now I want to know
1. how to create different log files for each of my deployed web applications ?
2. what are the advantages in running multiple instances of oc4j and in what case we should run
multiple instances of OC4J ?
3. how to run OC4J as Windows2000 Service rather than Windows2000 Application ?
Thanks and Regards,
Kumar.

Hi Avi,
First of all I have given a first reading to log4j and I think there will some more easy way of logging debugging messages than log4j (If you could provide me a detailed explanation of a servlet,jsp,java bean that uses log4j and how to use log4j then it will be very helpful for me). The other easy ways (if I am not using log4j) to my problem i.e creating different log files for each of web applications deployed in oc4j are
I have created multiple instances of OC4J that are configured to run on different ports and so on each instance I have deployed a single web application . And I started the 2 oc4j instances by transferring thier error/log messages to a file. And the other way is ..
I have download from jakarta site a package called servhelper . This servhelper is a thread that is started in a startup servlet and stopped in the destroy method of that startup servlet. So this thread will automatically capture all the system.out.println's and will print those to a file. I believe that this thread program is synchronized. So in this method I need not run multiple instances of OC4J instead each deployed web application on single instance of oc4j uses the same thread program (ofcourse a copy of thread program is put in each of the deployed web applications directories) to log messages on to different log files.
Can you comment on my above 2 approached to logging debugging messages and a compartive explanation to LOG4J and how to use LOG4J using a simple servlet, simple jsp is appreciated ...
Thanks and Regards,
Ravi.

How to create a custom measure for each level of a dimension

Hi all!
Can Anyone please explain me with an example, how to create a custom measure for each level for a dimension? I dont mine if you use
one or more measures.
thanks in advance
hope someone helps me.

For example:I create a dimension for product_dim witch has 4 levels:total, class, family and item:
d_aben18
n1_aben18
n2_aben18
n3_aben18
n4_aben18
herarchy:h_aben18
cube:cubo_aben18
measure:med_aben18
I create this code to fetch the data to the dimension:
TRAP ON CLEANUP
SQL DECLARE c1 CURSOR FOR SELECT-
total_product_id,1,'N1_ABEN18',total_product_dsc,-
class_id,1,'N2_ABEN18',total_product_id,class_dsc,-
family_id,1,'N3_ABEN18', class_id, family_dsc,-
item_id,1,'N4_ABEN18',family_id,item_dsc-
FROM PRODUCT_DIM
"OPEN THE CURSOR
SQL OPEN c1
"FETCH THE DATA
SQL FETCH c1 LOOP INTO-
:APPEND D_ABEN18, :D_ABEN18_H_aben18_HIERDEF,:D_ABEN18_N1_aben18_LEVELDEF,:D_ABEN18_long_description,-
:APPEND D_ABEN18, :D_ABEN18_H_aben18_HIERDEF,:D_ABEN18_N2_aben18_LEVELDEF,:D_ABEN18_parentrel,-
:D_ABEN18_long_description,-
:APPEND D_ABEN18, :D_ABEN18_H_aben18_HIERDEF,:D_ABEN18_N3_aben18_LEVELDEF,:D_ABEN18_parentrel,-
:D_ABEN18_long_description,-
:APPEND D_ABEN18, :D_ABEN18_H_aben18_HIERDEF,:D_ABEN18_N4_aben18_LEVELDEF,:D_ABEN18_parentrel,-
:D_ABEN18_long_description,-
"SAVE THE CHANGES
UPDATE
COMMIT
CLEANUP:
SQL CLOSE c1
SHOW 'KK2'
Then I create a cube with use compression off, and in rules sum for example.
After, I create a measure and I select Override the aggregation specification for the cube, in rules I put nonadditive and I would like to create aprogram to assign distinct values to each level of the dimension. For example, I put 1, 2 3, and 4 values, but at the end I would like to put count(distinct(values)).
for that I create another program:
VRB D_RETURN DECIMAL
if D_ABEN18_N1_ABEN18_LEVELDEF eq 'N1_ABEN18'
then D_RETURN = 1
if D_ABEN18_N2_ABEN18_LEVELDEF eq 'N2_ABEN18'
then D_RETURN = 2
if D_ABEN18_N3_ABEN18_LEVELDEF eq 'N3_ABEN18'
then D_RETURN = 3
if D_ABEN18_N4_ABEN18_LEVELDEF eq 'N4_ABEN18'
then D_RETURN = 4
else d_return=26
return d_return
"SHOW D_RETURN
cubo_aben18_med_aben18_stored=d_return
but it doesnt work.I dont know how to put to assign or to see what I want.
I report the measure, or I report the program, but then how can I see the values of the measure?
thanks in advance

How to restrict separate payment document for each line item in APP

HI Experts
PLs let me know how to restrict separate payment document for each line item in APP
Thanks
Sneha
Edited by: Sneha R on Apr 14, 2009 4:18 PM

Sneha,
If your query was to group items for payment ,in FBZP co code data for payment method there are 2 options 1.group payment for marked items 2.payment per due date.
Also in the Vendor master there is a flag which will ensure that each item is paid individually,if this is what you were looking for ( FK02 change vendor).
In case you want to group items to be paid together Payment Grouping Key can be assigned in Vendor Master .

So how to specify different answer file for different install images in WDS snap-in?

hello
in WDS snap-in, in properties on server name, on client tab, we can define an answer file for unattended windows installation on WDS clients.
my question is, maybe we have added multiple images in WDS snap-in (win xp image, win 7 , win 2008,...)
now this one answer file applies to all of them ?
so how to specify different answer file for different install images in WDS snap-in?
thanks in advanced

Under the "Client" tab of WDS, you should only use an answer-file with settings relevant for the installation. This would be credentials for the WDS deployment share, international settings used during the setup and possibly also destination drive
details (if you want the installation to take care of partitioning the disk etc). The settings relevant for unattend-files used under "Client" would only be of those in phase 1 (WinPE).
However, if you would like to have specific unattend file for every installation, e.g. Win7, Server 2008, Win 8 etc, you can browse to the image under "Install Images" under the image Groups. There you can select properties for every image and
have a personal unattend-file.

thanks for caring

I can't believe there's still no proper answers for this question . I'm now struggling with the same issue as the original asker. It seems that at least with the newest version of Nokia Drive you can delete the maps saved (without the need to remove the whole application). You can do that even one by one. But the question is: "If I delete a particular map and load it again, will that be the newest version of the map? Or is there still a need to delete the whole Nokia Drive application, as said in the instructions linked earlier in this thread?"
Anyway, even deleting one map and loading it again sounds very frustrating without knowing if there actually is a new update or not. We should know exactly which is the current version of each map and wheter there is a newer version.
Many things are gone worse after Symbian. On Symbian phones, you could easily update all the maps with Ovi Suite. Now, with Zune, you can update the firmware, but not the maps which was a disappointment to me. I don't have WiFi connection, so, for me, it would be cheaper to download huge amounts of data with my computer's wired connection (with my phone connected to it via USB). Don't want to waste my monthly data limit to download again possibly the same map versions just to be sure...
But please, moderators and others, give us some comments and answers...

How much space it is occupying for each Material Master in MARA table.

Hi Gurus & Markus .
If one of the functional consultant creates a Material Master in MARA how much space it will occupy for each. Like we need to create 10000 material masters.
How can i access exactly to that table in terms of db growth.
>Rahul

use this command:
select blocks from dba_tables where table_name='MARA';
then add 8 entries. then same command:
select blocks from dba_tables where table_name='MARA';
check difference between the 2, you will get a small number, you will get the number of Kbytes used per record.
