How to synchronize test schema objects with the prod schema objects.

Hi,
I have a requirement of synchronizing test schema objects with the production schema objects. Please let me know the below
1. if there is a standardized method for such activity,
2. if there are oracle utilities for this task.
3. If i had to do this job manually, can you let me know the check list if any.
Thanks

You could try database diff tool in sql developer(but there are some licence restrictions).
I don't know your database version, you could try DBMS_COMPARISON package also.
Look at this link http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/appdev.111/b28419/d_comparison.htm
Other solution is to create db link between test and production database, and then you can try different types of queries like
select table_name from user_tables
minus
select table_name from user_tables@db_link_to_other_database
And you can do this for columns, indexes and so on.
But you must have proper DDL scripts for this, to generate sync script.
Also there is a question about work process, you are doing sync in reverse order(from production to test). Test db is for test, after test you go to production db with proper ddl and dml scripts, so these schemas shouldn't be different in the first place(talking about schema, not data here).

How to synchronize a local file with the remote copy.

I have a local file (file.txt) inside the directory of my java application and also a copy in a remote machine. Every time I start the application I want to check if the remote copy has been updated and if yes, synchronize the local copy. If you have done this before, please let me know. Thank you very much!

you could make a URL connection to that file, check it's lastModified date, and download if you need to update

Change NEXT_RUN_DATE in test to match with the Prod database NEXT_RUN_DATE

i have job name "REFRESH_MN_ADDRESSES_J" in Schema "MESH_FOR" in Test database . What i want is that the this job NEXT_RUN_DATE should be chnaged to the Production database NEXT_RUN_DATE. How to do that in Oracle 10g database
In test database
<code>
Select next_run_date from ALL_SCHEDULER_JOBS where OWNER='MESH_FOR'and job_name='REFRESH_MN_ADDRESSES_J'
NEXT_RUN_DATE :
27.07.2010 05:30:00,000000000 +02:00
</code>
In Production database
<code>
Select next_run_date from ALL_SCHEDULER_JOBS where OWNER='MESH_FOR'and job_name='REFRESH_MN_ADDRESSES_J'
NEXT_RUN_DATE :
27.07.2010 10:30:00,000000000 +02:00

SET_SCHEDULER_ATTRIBUTE is a procedure of the DBMS_SCHEDULER package.
See also: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14258/d_sched.htm#CIHDAIIH
It depends a little bit how your job is set up. But you might change the next running date with a statement like this one.
untested
begin
   DBMS_SCHEDULER.SET_ATTRIBUTE (
   'REFRESH_MN_ADDRESSES_J',
   'start_date', /* works only if the job has no schedule */
   '07/15/2010 10:30:00'

How to Synchronize Test Instance with Production database on regular basis.

Hello
How to Synchronize Test Instance with Production database on regular basis.
I want to update my Test Instance with Production ERP on daily basis without downTime.?

Hi,
I recomend to configure physical standby database for your production and when ever you requir open standby Using a Physical Standby DB in Read Write Mode and Flashback DB, so that you can revert all the changes back and put the db in sync. Please follow below metalink notes.

update my Test Instance with Production ERP on daily basis without downTime.?With zero down time is not possible I think.

RE: multiple named objects with the same name andinterface

David,
First I will start by saying that this can be done by using named anchored
objects and registering them yourself in the name service. There is
documentation on how to do this. And by default you will get most of the
behavior you desire. When you do a lookup in the name service (BindObject
method) it will first look in the local partition and see if there is a
local copy and give you that copy. By anchoring the object and manually
registering it in the name service you are programmatically creating your
own SO without defining it as such in the development environment. BTW in
response to your item number 1. This should be the case there as well. If
your "mobile" object is in the same partition where the service object he is
calling resides, you should get a handle to the local instance of the
service object.
Here is the catch, if you make a bind object call and there is no local copy
you will get a handle to a remote copy but you can not be sure which one!
It end ups as more or less a random selection. Off the top of my head and
without going to the doc, I am pretty sure that when you register an
anchored object you can not limit it's visibility to "User".

Subject: multiple named objects with the same name and interface
All,
More than once, I have wished that Forte allowed you to place named
objects with the same name in more than one partition. There are two
situations in which this seems desirable:
1) Objects that are not distributed, but are mobile (passed by value to
remote objects), cannot safely reference a Service Object unless it has
environment visibility, but this forces the overhead of a remote method
call when it might not otherwise be necessary. If it were possible to
place a copy of the same Service Object (with user visibility) in each
partition, the overhead of a remote method call could be avoided. This
would only be useful for a service object whose state could be safely
replicated.
2) My second scenario also involves mobile objects referencing a Service
Object, but this time I would like the behavior of the called Service
Object to differ with the partition from which it is called.
This could be accomplished by placing Service Objects with the same name
and the same interface in each partition, but varying the implementation
with the partition.
Does anyone have any thoughts about why this would be a good thing or a
bad thing?

ERROR: MyService.jws:715:There are two or more operations with the same schema-element 'ns0:MyNameSpace' on the input message in a web service file or callback interface.

I have two web service operations that have the same complex type as their input
parameter. I want to map this type to an existing schema. I can successfully
do this with the first operation using XQuery but when I attempt to do this with
the second operation I get the following error:
ERROR: MyService.jws:715:There are two or more operations with the same schema-element
'ns0:MyNamespace' on the input message in a web service file or callback interface.
ERROR: SUGGESTION: Use different schema-element values for each of those operations.
How can I use different schema-element values? The input parameters are to be
mapped to the same schema and same element since they are the same for both operations....

I am having the same problem. How did you resolve this..?? could you please tell me the solution??
Thanks

BI Platform: Parameter object with the name "URL_PARAM"... does not exist

Hi,
I'm facing this issue with only one dashboard in BI4 Platform. When trying to view it through the BI Launch Pad, I get the following error:
"Parameter object with the name "URL_PARAM" and the index "0" still does not exist in the parameter 1[...]".
I've seen this thread where a similar thing was reported with NetWeaver platform.
My client as well as server versions are Release 1.4 SP0 Patch2 (14.0.5).
Also, although some of the pictures referenced in the dashboard are not in the Public Folders on BI4. Could it be that it's not able to reference the images and hence not be displaying the whole dashboard?
Please let me know if anyone has a solution to this.
Thanks!

Hi,
So here are the versions we currently have:
SAP BO Design Studio (64 bit) - 14.1.0
SAP BO Design Studio 1.4 for BI Platform - 14.1.0.349
And on checking on Central Management Console, I get this:
SAP BO BI Platform 4.1 Support Pack 5 Patch 2
Version: 14.1.5.1568
Also, I'm not sure if I installed an add-on or the patch. Based on these versions, could you tell me how to fix the issue ?
Thanks!

How to export string in CDATA with the jaxb xml writer?

How to export string in CDATA with the jaxb xml writer?
It read CDATA no problem but it is lost on write.

Found it:
### THIS WORKS WITH SUN JAXB REFERENCE IMPLEMENTATION. ###
(Not tested with any other)
In the xsd, you must create a type for your string-like element.
Then associate a data type converter class to this new type, which will produce CDATA tags.
Then you must set a custom characterEscapeHandler to avoid the default xml escaping in order to preserve the previously produced CDATA tag.
Good luck.
-----type converter-----
import javax.xml.bind.DatatypeConverter;
public class ExpressionConverter {
     * Convert an expression from an XML file into an internal representation. JAXB will
     * probably have already stripped off the CDATA encapsulation. As a result, this method
     * simply invokes the JAXB type conversion for strings but does not take any other action.
     * @param text an XML-compliant expression
     * @return a pure string expression
     public static String parse(String text) {
          String result = DatatypeConverter.parseString(text);
          return result;
     * Convert an expression from its internal representation to an XML-compliant version.
     * This method will simply surround the string in a CDATA block and return the result.
     * @param text a pure string expression
     * @return the expression encapsulated within a CDATA block
     public static String print(String text) {
          StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(text.length() + 20); //should add the length of the CDATA tags + 8 EOLs to be safe
          sb.append("<![CDATA[");
          sb.append(wrapLines(text, 80));
          sb.append("]]>");
          return DatatypeConverter.printString(sb.toString());
     * Provides line-wrapping for long text strings. EOL indicators are inserted at
     * word boundaries once a specified line-length has been exceeded.
     * @param text the string to be wrapped
     * @param lineLength the maximum number of characters that should be included in a single line
     * @return the new string with appropriate EOL insertions
     private static String wrapLines(String text, int lineLength) {
          //wrap logic, watchout for quoted strings!!!!

Create an object with the name passed in as a string argument to a method

Hi,
I am sorry if it's too trivial for this forum , but I am stuck with the following requirements.
I have a method
void abc(String object_name, String key, String value)
method abc should first check if there exists in memory a hashmap object with the name passed in as argument object_name.
If yes ..just put the key and value there.
if not , then create the hashmap object called <object_name> and insert the key/value there.
Can anybody help me in the first step i.e, how to check if an object exists with the name passed in and if not then create it.
Will getInstance method be of any help?
Thanks in advance for your response.

Dear Cotton.m,
Thanks for your suggesstion. I will remember that.
But somehow I have a strong belief that you still need to consult dictionary for exact meaning of the words like "upset" , "frustration" etc. Not knowing something in a language , that too as a beginner, does not yield frustration, but increases curiosity. And people like petes1234 are there to diminish that appetite.
To clarify above, let me compare jverd's reply to my doubt with petes1234's.
jverd said it cannot be done and suggested a work around (It was perfect and worked for me) While petes1234 , having no work in hand probably, started analysis of newbies mistakes.
jverd solved my problem by saying that it cannot be done. petes1234 acted as a worthless critic in my opinion and now joined cotton.m.
Finally, this is a java forum and I do not want to discuss human characteristics here for sure.
My apologies if I had a wrong concept or if I chose a wrong forum to ask, where people like petes1234 or Cotton.m show their geekdom by pointing out "shortfalls" rather than clearing that by perfect examples and words.
Again take it easy and Cotton.m , please do not use this forum to figure out others' frustration but be a little more focussed on solving others "Java related" problems :)

That is so dumb...Apple is the best and most techinological company IN THE WORLD and they don't have the time to invent something like that? HUH? All they are worried about is making the "Worlds best Phone" and they can't take the time out to help their users or anybody that has their products. All they have is "Find mt Iphone" Well they should step up and do something else to help people like me out. Find a way to turn it on and you can find it or find a way to turn it on remotely.
Thank you for your replys

How do I create a logotype with the letters in 2 different colours

I need help with a logo. I'm trying to create a logo were it's as though a lamp is shining on the type so part of the letters are in 2 different colours.

Set the type using the point text tool (meaning click then type, not click-drag-release then type). Use two type objects, one for each line.
Draw the path for the light with the pen tool, fill it with yellow, and move it to the back (Object > Arrange > Send to Back).
Select the top line of text and the spotlight and go to Object > Clipping Mask > Make.
Now select just the type objects with the Direct Select tool (white arrow) and fill them with blue.

How do you manually manage podcasts with the new iTunes?

Like the subject line says: How do you manually manage podcasts with the new iTunes?
With the previous version of iTunes, when I plugged in my iPod, I could select the iPod, select podcasts, and manually delete episodes. With the new iTunes, I can't select individual episodes when looking at my iPod through iTunes. Is my only option to Sync? If so, why is that my only option?
This question probably has a simple answer, and I'm just not seeing it.

Rock,
I think I figured out a way to do what you want to do - which is the same way that I use Itunes with my Ipod. (My Itunes libary was destroyed last year so I can no longer auto synch my Ipod as I would lose thousands of songs).
Funnily enough, I discovered this new way of manually moving podcasts while trying to figure out what cpragman was trying to say (I never could - he must be smarter than me, as I couldn't get his method to work).
1. Open up your Itunes in your regular Library view. Choose Pocasts from the left hand side (either in the sidebar if you have that enabled, or from the little "radio" icon if you don't.)
2. Mouse to the podcast you want to place on your Ipod.
3. Right-click it. A long menu will pop up.
4. Move to the "Add to Playlist" option. As you hover, all your playlists will be visible. But at the very top will be the name of your Ipod itself (whatever you named it originally). Choose THAT name, and voila! That podcast will now copy to your Ipod and be easily available when you disconnect.
A nice feature of this method is that you can shift-click several podcasts at once and do the same thing, and all your selected podcasts will copy over (if you're like me and update your Ipod only every few weeks).
Hope this helps - let me know if it works for you!
