How to update 2 TransformGroup at exactly the same time?

Hi all,
In my 3D scene, I would like to apply transformation to my shapes at the same time that my eye point is moving; for example, just like in car racing games where your car is always visible in front of you, and your eye point and lookAt point change as the car moves.
As a beginner to 3D programming, I've chosen the following approach. My first TransformGroup has the Transform3D object on which I'll called the lookAt method. This takes care of changing the eye point. My second TransformGroup has the shapes for the car as its child. Both TransformGroup objects are added to the root node of my scene graph.
While both TransformGroup have the ALLOW_TRANSFORM_WRITE capabilities set, I launched another thread to call the setTrasform methods on the 2 TransformGroup objects at regular intervals.
This seems to be working in terms of translating my objects and eye point, but I see noticable flickers. I suspect that's because for any given frame, the two setTransform calls to the two TransformGroup objects don't happen at exactly the same time. Do you think that is the problem?
Please let me know of any other approach to this problem.
Thanks in advance.

Use the Behavior framework for making changes in the scene. This uses an internal j3d thread which is in sync with the rendering thread.
See chapter 4 (Interaction) and 5 (Animation) in the 2nd module of the j3d tutorial (this may not be the correct chapters, since i have a rather old version of the tutorial)

How to update two tables at the same time using jdbc

Plz will anybody tell me what is the code or query in jdbc by which you insert entry in one table and simultaneously it goes in another table?
Thanks in advance

You might be
able to design a trigger to do what you're talking
about, but that would be a database thing, not a java
thingAnother option would be an updatable view (google for usage), but it has limitations and should be used with caution. And yes, its a database thinggy and not java.

Make 2 methods run at exactly the same time

Hi,
How can I make 2 mothds be executed at exactly the same time? Is it anything to do with the synchronized keywor?
Thanks.

You can't really.
Even in the case of two computers, you probably don't have control over how the OS will give Java CPU cycles, so even though you thing you're clicking at the same time, the methods may start at slightly different times.
Similarly , on a multi-CPU machine, you don't generally control how threads are apportioned among the CPUs, or when they get time.
How exact does "exactly" need to be? +/- 1 μs? +/- 1 ms? 100 ms?
Why do you need this?
Why do you think you need this? There may be another ay to acommplish your ultimate goal without needing two methods to start simultaneously, or close to it.

Getting two midi threads to start at exactly the same time

Hello, is it possible to get two threads to start at exactly the same time because when I start two threads or more at the same time that playback midi using a synthesizer, they never start at exactly the same time.
Any help would be appreciated.

How to support multiple users at the same time?

Hi all,
I have a Labview software which controls a analyzer via GPIB connector. When user A is using the software, user B has to wait until A is done. But actually, the analyzer is not very busy, when user A is using the software.
I want user A, B, C and D can use the software at the same time. just like we can open Multiple websites at the same time.
How can I program the software, so that the software can be open multiple times? Do you have any example?
Thanks a lot.

Are all the users going to be measuring the exact same thing from the same instrument?
It would be possible to write a separate instrument server application that would handle all the direct interactions with the instrument. When one of the users needed to access the instrument, they would gain access to it through this server.
The big, Big, BIG caveat is that each interaction with the instrument would need to be atomic. In other words each access would need to configure the instrument, initiate the reading, report the results, and then reset the instrument back to some known default value.
As Dennis said, not a trivial process, but probably do-able...

You could create an applescript to do it.
tell application "Dreamweaver's Full Name"
activate
end tell
tell application "BBEdit's Full Name"
activate
end tell
tell application "Acrobat's Full Name"
activate
end tell
Replace the quoted text (leaving the quotes) with the full name of the application, and save the applescript as an application bundle, and put it in your dock.
NOTE: You may have to put the full path to the application for it to work (I.E. /Applications/Dreamweaver.app). If you do, encase the full path in quotes.
Good luck!

How to display multiple reports at the same time

Hi,
I'm trying to display multiple reports at the same time, each one in separates tabs or windows using Forms 11g 11.1.1.6
I have a button which has a call to a procedure which makes use of rp2rro library to show the specific reports, for example:
call_report('report1');
call_report('report2');
call_report('report3');
call_report('report4');
The main problem is that, just the last report is been displayed.
Is there some way to display report1, report2 etc in separate tabs or windows ??
Regards
Carlos

You shouldn't have a problem calling different reports at once. As long as you're using Forms 11g they show up in different windows.
The question is how you are calling the report.
Here is how I manipulate it.
After I pass parameters with the ADD_PARAMETER built-in I set some key values (destype, desformat, desname) with the RP2RRO's procedures.
Finally calling RP2RRO.RP2RRO_RUN_PRODUCT and then WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT passing the correct procedure parameters the report comes up in a window. If you repeat the above changing the appropriate variables (the report_name in the RP2RRO_RUN_PRODUCT and so on) you can get multiple reports in different windows.

How to use multiple languages at the same time for spell checking?

I use two different languages all the time and words are mostly so different (English and Finnish) that I could have spell checking on for both languages at the same time.
Now it seem to allow to select only one language at the time and I have to switch back and fort zillion of times per day.

Thanks for the quick answer.
The Dictionary Switcher doesn't seem to work with Finnish language, it doesn't detect it at all to be one of the choices although in the Firefox context menu Languages -> Finnish/Finland is shown.
Also, if it would work, I would need to get rid of multiple EN_* langauges. I just need EN_UK or EN_US, not all 22 different EN_*.
One option would be to create a custom dictionary, which would have words from both languages. The next task is then to find out how to make this kind of custom ENFI-dictionary, which would have words from both English and Finnish languages.
Finnish may be a some kind of special case for spell checking anyway, because the support is in its separate plugin:

But the audio that comes with the video doesn't appear to be starting at the same time. And this problem I ASSURE you i have no clue how to handle. And yes i know, the two video audios will overlap, but this a test for heavens sake!
Anyways, heres the modified code in case it will help anyone

import java.awt.*;
import javax.media.protocol.*;
public class Video implements Runnable{
     String url;
     MediaLocator locator;

               locator = new MediaLocator(url);
               player = Manager.createRealizedPlayer(locator);
               panel.add(player.getVisualComponent());
               player.start();
          } catch (Exception e) {
