How to use application builder to generate installation disk without compiling the the support files?

Hello,
What I am trying to do is to use LV application builder generating an installation disk without compiling the support files. I mean:
the support fils like the help files are located on a different directory , for example, installation disk is D drive, help file directory is: D:\Help\..., not compiled in the installation Data set.
So, when the installation disk is running, it only copy this directory file into the destiny directory. Of course, we can write a different bat file to do this. However, beside this method, is there any way, like using LV application builder to do this without writing a batch file. Any suggestion will be appreciated.

For LabVIEW 7.1, this can be done in a few short steps. First, add your help file as a support file in the Application Builder. Then go to the Installer tab, choose to create an installer and click on the Files button at the bottom. From this dialog (shown below), you can specify the destination for each component in your install package. If you have added your help file as a support file, it will show up in the Files in Installation list. Click on your help file to highlight it. You can now choose where to install the file to by specifying an installation destination and a subdirectory. The default subdirectory is called data, but if you want to change that, just type in a new subdirectory name as I have done below:
Hope this helps!

How to use Application Designer with virtual box vm's

hi all,
I could use some help please.
I have everthing installed and working on the VMs but now I want to use Application Designer but I must be doing something wrong.
I installed the Oracle client on windows and created tnsnames.ora. I can't connect to the database from windows to vm.
I have some questions which might help me fix this.
The directory that was mentioned to put tnsnames.ora in (C:\app\Mike\product\11.2.0\client_1\network\admin\) was not there so I had to create it. Was that what I was supposed to do or did the install go bad?
For the windows host file what should the ip addresses be? I used the IP Addresses of the eth1 network interface from both guests which I created.
As far as the PeopleTools on windows I used PT 8.52 but with no patch will that work even though the VMs are PT 8.52.06? So if I need the patch in order for App Designer to work how can I get the patch I think I need an account to do that. I think it mentions in the OVM doc that they are included somewhere so should I use those instead?

<strike>With virtualbox vm's I assume that you mean the OVM templates converted to virtualbox.</strike>
Didn't notice the OVM category :)
Which Oracle Client installer did your use?
You could use the following download from MOS for Database 11.2..02 (since Peoplesoft database is also delivered at 11.2.0.2)
Patch 10098816: 11.2.0.2.0 PATCH SET FOR ORACLE DATABASE SERVER
From the patch set download only p10098816_112020_platform_4of7.zip, which is your database client. The rest you will not need to be able to use Application Designer and Datamover.
Once downloaded start the installer and choose option Runtime (do not choose Instant Client or Administrator).
Now that you have your connectivity, you can start the PIA-AppBatch vm.
switch to psadm2 user and go to $PS_HOME.
Here you will find two files
toolsclient.zip (PeopleTools 8.52, use client only)
toolspatchvcd.zip (PeopleTools patch 8.52.06, , use client only)
Copy these files to your windows workstation and install them in that order.
Copy the tnsnames from the Database vm to your oracle client install dir network\admin dir and you should be ready to start using Application Designer/Datamover.
For more detailed information see the post from Nicolas:

How to use Flash Builder for Eclipse Luna ( is it possible??)

How to use Flash Builder for Eclipse Luna ( is it possible??)

Yes. I have Flash Builder 4.6 and 4.7 running in different Eclipse Luna installs.
More details at http://forums.adobe.com/message/4527443
On Mac, I had to have the 32bit version of Luna for 4.6, and the 64bit version of Luna for 4.7 (and I recently started using 4.7 with Eclipse Mars).
For 4.6 you need to first download Eclipse 3.6 and install the Flash Builder 4.6 plugin to that Eclipse install. For 4.7 you need to download Eclipse 3.7 and install the plugin to that Eclipse install. Once it's installed in the 3.x version, you can then copy the fb*.link files from the Eclipse 3.x dropins folders into your Eclipse Luna's dropin folder.
There is an issue where something in Flash Builder 4.7 won't work right when using it as a plugin, not sure but it might be something with building ANEs.

How to use application managed entity manager in EJB?

I finish reading The EntityManager Interface in JEE tutorial.
I know I can use container manager entity manager in EJB, but I want to explore how to use application managed entity manager in EJB.
Can I use application managed entity manager in EJB (container management JTA transaction is used)? Where do I should close entity manager if can?
The following is an example from JEE tutorial, but didn't find where to calose entity manager. and can I create mutiple EntityManagerFactory objects and Entity Manager objects to use them in a JTA transaction?
@PersistenceUnit
EntityManagerFactory emf;
EntityManager em;
@Resource
UserTransaction utx;
em = emf.createEntityManager();
try {
utx.begin();
em.persist(SomeEntity);
em.merge(AnotherEntity);
em.remove(ThirdEntity);
utx.commit();
} catch (Exception e) {
utx.rollback();

Seems like a very poor example, the whole power of EJBs is to use Container Managed Transactions so you don't NEED to manage the transaction and the entity manager yourself. What you posted is code I would expect in a non-JEE application, or in a piece of code which requires fine-tuned transaction boundaries such as batched data importing logic.
If I were you I'd research JPA in steps.
a) learn about JPA as an API outside of the scope of EJBs (recommended reading: the book 'Pro JPA 2')
b) learn about Container Managed Transactions in EJBs
c) learn about Bean Managed Transactions in EJBs
Right now you're rushing into c). I can understand that it raises many question marks at this point.

How to use application.getRealPath()

Hi all,
I need to retrieve a document which is external to .war file and with in the same server location. I dont want to hard code the file location path in my jsp. Is there any other alternative by using getRealPath() method. Pl let me know how to use application.getRealPath() if it makes any sense.
Hoping to hear from you soon :)

Say, doc1 is in webapps1 and you want to get its real path in webapps2. For that,
in webapps2, you can use ServletContext.getContext("/webapps1") method , to get the context of webapps1. Then from this context, you can use context.getRealPath("/doc1") method to get the location of the document doc1.
Hope this helps.

Install Failed. Installer could not copy the necessary support files

I replaced the hard drive in my MacBook 13ac OS X" late 2009. I am trying to reinstall th OS and applications from th CDs that came with the computer. When I start the computer and try to install the OS, it starts to install, after about 2-3 minutes I get the following message. Install Failed. Mac OS X could not be installed on your computer. The Installer could not copy the necessary support files. Click restart to restart your computer and try installing again. I have done this several times with no luck. Is the CD missing something? Is there another way to do this?

Disconnect any attached hard drives.
Boot off the disk and try running Disk Utility Repair Disk and Repair Permissions. If that is successful, try to re-install. If that doesn't work boot off the disk and use Disk Utility to erase and reformat the drive as Mac OS Extended (Journaled).

"The installer could not copy the necessary support files." Error message on 0S X 10.6.3 Install

I have just wiped my iMac 21.5' Core i3 3.2GHz as I am going to sell it. This process went as expected but when I try to reinstall the OS from the disk that originally came with the system (10.6.3) it gets around 30% into the install and then produces the error message "The installer could not copy the necessary support files." No matter what I try the outcome is the same and the installation fails.
I did have the hard drive replaced on this iMac a couple of years ago as it was of a batch that apple said could go pop one day. Do the hard drive and the OS X disk that comes with the system have to match, or is it just a case of a faulty disc? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am upgrading from Tiger to SL in a MCBPro with 2 gb ram and an intel chip and I get the following notice: Installation failed.... THE INSTALLER COULD NOT COPY THE NCESSARY SUPPORT FILES. Any help is apprciated

I am upgrading from Tiger to SL in a MCBPro with 2 gb ram and an intel chip and I get the following notice: Installation failed.... THE INSTALLER COULD NOT COPY THE NCESSARY SUPPORT FILES. Any help is appreciated...

Yes. I've found that works best. Especially if the drive is external, since external connections are typically slower, and Spotlight loves to eat up space going back and forth. Time Machine will eat up as much space as it can, and typically needs drives at least twice the size of the original hard drive that is being backed up, if being backed up in full. So unfortunately there is a lot of empty space that is needed for smooth operation.

Automatic creation of desktop icon using application builder installer

Can app builder create and installer where a desktop icon is automatically placed on the desktop?

Hi ATS-MN
With LabVIEW 8 you can create a shortcut on the desktop. In the new Installer Builder, there is a category for shortcuts and you can specify the executable and the desktop folder here. In previous version of LabVIEW, you were not able to have an installer create desktop shortcuts.
Hope this helps!

How to use application params in .EAR files

When we build an ear file , Weblogic-application.xml provides application-param
tag?
are they similar to env-entry in ejb-jar.xml.
Can I use application-param tag to define a configurable params
say myName and value as "Harshad"
How do i read it in the application say a simple java class that is included in
a jar inside the ear file.

application-param tag in weblogic-application.xml may be used to define parameters:
webapp.encoding.default
webapp.encoding.usevmdefault
webapp.getrealpath.accept_context_path

Thanks in advance..

Hi Michael,
It would be really good to understand your application a little more so that any specific needs that you have may be met. In the meantime, I would also suggest searching on ni.com for "pwm" or other keywords that relate to your application. You will see a faceted navigation on the left side that allows you to narrow your search for example code, tutorials, etc.
Please post back with more information and the community will be able to help out with suggestions.
ni.com search for "pwm"
