I believe I have a timing issue...

Greetings:
Ok, I'm writing an application that has a main class I.E. Class1, Class1 creates Class2 which as it is loaded populates a combo list box during Class2.run(); by using a public static method entitled getTransactionCodes();
Class1 creates a private static instance of Class2.
Class2.cbxTransCode has a mouse listener associated with it. If the user right clicks the cbxTransCode an instance of Class3 (a popup menu) is created and the user can click a number of options in this case the Add.
Class3 creates yet another instance of Class4... a dialogue which prompts the user to enter a new code into the database. Upon successful validation an instance of Class5... DataControl is created.
The newly entered and validated code is stored to the db with a PrepairedStatement as suggested to me last week.
Great, the new code is entered into the db. Now I call Class1.getClass2().getTransCode();
The first line of the getTransCode method clears the combo box and then proceeds to populate the widget as it had when class2 was first created.
Great... however the new code doesn't appear... I then close Class2 and reopen it and low and behold the new code is in the list... I have varified that the combo does get cleared out and repopulated with a loop...
So, where am I going wrong... should I have some sort of Wait or Sleep method evoke. Keep in mind that I'm coming from the VB way of doing things.
Jim

I've resolved my own issue.... wonderful thing that
new contraption, I believe they call it the
Internet.
Anyhow, I used "Thread.sleep(100);" to allow my code
to catch up.
JimI can only echo what jverd said. Think about what will happen when the sleep time is not as long as the process time it's waiting on. Based on your code you're waiting 1/10th of one second (100 ms). What will happen when it takes 2/100th of one second to finish what it's waiting on? Not pretty.
A better plan and very simple to implement would be to wait .1 seconds just like you are, but when it wakes up check for a flag that will be tripped when the other process finishes. if it's tripped go on your way. If it isn't, loop around and sleep again.
There are sexier ways to do it but this will work, with one caveat. You are introducing a wait state into your application and creating delay for your users. Also if the process you're waiting for doesn't trip the flag you're waiting for ever.

  • Timing issues in implemented design

    Hello everyone,
    I have been reading in these forums for a long time now, but have never posted. Possibly because I have never had such a design-specific issue that was above my knowledge...I wish my problem was more "friendly" for a first post.
    Anywho, my problem is as follows: I've been working on a design for a few months now and everything was working fine up until recently (apart from logic errors of course that I would run into and fix here and there). I recently integrated a module that I did not design myself. My behavioral simulations work fine and all of my previous functionality seems to be working as well when the design is implemented. However, the functionality based on the "foreign" module has introduced problems.
    What I am using: Spartan 6-XC6SLX16 and therefore ISE
    Here are some of the functional symptoms I have recorded so far:
    - The functionality always produces the same output after the design is implemented and uploaded
    - The functionality can differ if I change something (no matter how small or where) in the design itself
    - The same applies for changing constraints
    - After some implementations+uploading the functionality works correctly, and in other cases it fails by either producing erroneous results or just "getting" stuck (i.e. one of my FSMs)
    - The critical path w.r.t. my system clock is in the module that seems to be the source of the problems
    This leads me to believe that there is some timing-related issue. The only timing related constraint I have used is for my system clock period. The timing report does not show any errors regarding this constraint.
    My guess so far would be that I have an unconstrained path problem, possibly in combination with insufficient account for system and input jitter, as the design does take up around 40-50% of FPGA. The problem is that I have no experience in tracking such an issue down, so I could definitely use some pointers in the right direction.
    Things I have tried:
    - Basic logic debugging of the input-output behavior of the problematic functionality using chipscope
    - Post-PAR simulation of the module that includes "foreign" components: Works fine with a 100MHz constraint
    - Increasing the frequency constraint for the entire design from 100 to 120 MHz but that was just out of lack for better ideas, it did not help.
    - Looking at the unconstrained paths that the timing analysis can provide. I was hoping to find something related to the component that seems to be causing the problems, but no luck. Mainly just entries related to all of the ring oscillators that I am using, which it seems to be interpreting as a clock domain crossing case. These, however, have nothing to do with the problematic portion of the design.
    I have a few questions at this point:
    -Can one problem lead to a totally uncontrollable landslide of other seemingly independent problems?
    -Also, how do I make sure that I get ALL of the unconstrained paths and not just a subset?
    -Could it even be an unconstrained path issue if nothing in the report indicates that there is an unconstrained path in the problematic region?
    I hope I have described my problem thoroughly enough for you to make some educated assumptions about what could be going wrong. I'm interested in learning what typically causes such problems. I am aware of synchronizing between clock domains, or the de-assertions of asynchronous resets, the standard problems...but I missed something critical here and I don't want it to happen again. Perhaps somebody has a pointer for me where I could do a little more digging?
    I will set up a timing simulation of the entire design, but as this is a rather lengthy process it will be some time until I get some results.
    Cheers,
    Shibby

    Hello,
    Thank you for the quick replies so far.

    So, my questions to you are:
    Did you review the entire (verbose) timing report?
    What is your smallest positive slack number?
    What is your system jitter? Your clofck source jitter?
    How well is the device bypassed on the board you are using (is it one of ours, or one from our distributors)?
    - Yes, I went over the entire verbose timing report that DIDN't cover unconstrained paths. However, when I did have the timing analyzer output unconstrained paths as well, there were a lot of timing errors. I assume this is due to the fact that unconstrained = period requirement of 0 and the slack is therefore always negative? I had a look at these and none of them really indicate a problem to me.
    - The smallest positive slack in the case of the standard verbose timing report was 0.304ns.
    - The system jitter is (the default?...I did not specify it in my UCF) 0.070ns. The other jitter values (TIJ and DJ) are both set to zero. So the resulting clock uncertainty is very small...possibly too small.
    - The board is a Nexys 3 from Digilent. I assume they know their stuff when it comes to capacitive bypassing of ICs. How would this play a role? If I've understood correctly then this is correlated to the system jitter. Bypassing problems would lead to larger/more frequent voltage dips (especially for larger designs) and therefore a clock that exhibits more/larger uncertainty (i.e. jitter)?
    I think my lack of knowledge in correctly constraining larger designs might be causing the problems here. But perhaps also not, so just to be sure, I want to ask the following (possibly stupid) questions:
    - Instead of increasing parameters related to jitter of a certain clock, wouldn't increasing the period constraint of that clock have the same effect? As I wrote, increasing for example the system clock constraint to 120MHz rather than 100MHz showed no improvement of the problem...I'm not sure what this tells me...if anything at all.
    - I do have another clock domain and I do synchronize signals (there is nothing big going on, mainly just handshaking) between the two domains. What could the effect be if I removed the period constraint for one of the clocks apart from possible timing problems in that clock domain?
    - The ring oscillators that I have clock certain FFs if oscillators enabled, however I do not know their exact frequencies. Would it suffice to just use a known upper bound?
    The latter two questions concern parts of the design that habe been there for a long time and have no functional connection to what was added that seems to be causing the problem, though.
    austin wrote:
    ISE ignores clock domain crossing (Vivado does not, but Vivado only supports 7 series and later devices). Do you have any unidentifed clock crossings that require synchronizers?
     Yes, I do. As mentioned above I synchronize my handshake signals between clock domains using simple level synhronizers (since I'm not doing anything fancy like transforming pulses). I am also synchronizing the de-assert of my asynchronous system reset in both clock domains using standard reset bridges, which are basically just level synchronizers.
    Interestingly, the timing report containing unconstrained path info tells me that one constraint was not met whereas the other one does not. It also concludes that the maximum frequency is lower than 100MHz, but gives the same result for the system clock. If I've understood correctly, this is due to the fact that there is an unconstrained path with maximum combinational path delay larger than 10ns. I had a look at this path (there are a few of the same type) and it is a path that I don't think needs to be constrained, so I wouldn't see this as the issue. 
    Albeit having looked at the timing reports, I wouldn't exclude that I've missed something, simply because I haven't dealt with such problems until now. So, I'm not sure whether or not it would be helpful to attach both the standard verbose timing report and the one including unconstrained paths...but perhaps someone could point me to something that might seem fishy..?
    One thing I will do is continue to try and isolate the location of the problem using timing simulations or possibly stripping the logic of certain components and checking the behavior of the implemented design.
    Best regards,
    Shibby

    I have noticed an issue with utilizing the “stream” function on iOS 7. If you choose to just stream the movie by hitting the play button it seems to actually start downloading (which is fine) but if you are say halfway thru the movie and stop you can clearly see that storage has been reduced under the usage, yet under the “videos” tab it still states “No Data” the only way to delete what you have partially downloaded is to fully download the video, which is fine but there is no way to tell what videos have been partially downloaded (I.e which occurs a lot when your child switches between movies using the so called “stream” function). This becomes troublesome once the capacity of the ipad is almost met and you have no way to delete this data since you may have several videos that have started to be viewed (hence partially downloaded). Apple needs to somehow make it truly streaming or provide an update so the storage can be managed. The only way I have been able to remove partially downloaded videos is by doing a total software restore. (The video data that is in question when connected to my MacBook shows up in iTunes as “other”) if you have any insight into this issue it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Here are the screenshots for what it's worth.

    IMO opendns is either doing this on purpose (unlikely) or they're under some sort of attack/being used to attack the specific torrent sites although I'm open to other explanations. I believe using the automatic setting for DNS is using my own ISP's DNS servers (which again, work fine... but still...)

    There is a problem with autoHeightRows and columnStretching used together in 11gR1.
    Have you tried without columnStretching?
    Or have you tried if it works in 11gr2?
    TimoHi Timo, Thank you very much for taking time to respond to my question.. :)
    Back to my question...
    I tried removing the columnStretching although my requirement really requires this but no effect really happens even if I remove this.
    Based on my investigation on the generated HTML, I notice the following items:
    1. A table is being wrapped in a div that is being set at a fixed height.
    2. On first load, if your autoheight rows is set to 6, the framework is setting a height of 96px to the div. This height would almost cut the last row of the table.
    3. If you try to refresh the page or try to re-PPR the component, the framework resets it to 102px which causes the last row to be fully displayed.
    My only concern is that IE is perfectly displaying this while Chrome and FF are having problem.
    Based on my understanding, the framework is messing up the height only on first load. Not sure but this is how I see it. I am really not confident also on my findings
    and I would most likely hear other's comment.
    Thanks.

  • Why do Encore CS5 and Premiere Pro CS5 have intermittant Sync issues?

    I am noticing that Encore CS5 is "buggy" regarding sync issues with material edited by Womble and Corel Video Studio and I am guessing other programs as well?
    In high definition I take AVCHD and  edit in Corel Video Studio.  If I leave the project as one single 42 minute segment and import this asset into Encore CS5, more often than not there are bad sync issues.  To get around this I have to divide the 42 minute project into approximately 6 smaller ones- Each smaller asset ends where I had done the editing.  Encore does not have any problems now with these 6 smaller assets.
    In standard definition I edit in Womble and export as a MPEG2 Program.  Sometimes Encore has a problem with the asset sync and sometimes it does not.  (I am guessing about 20% of my assets end up with a problem).  The same asset if brought into TMP or brought back into Womble does not have any sync issue.  If brought into Premiere Pro CS5 it will exhibit the same behavior as Encore- If Encore has a sync problem, so will Premiere Pro.  So to get around this I then have to go back to the original womble file and break it up into smaller pieces, at every edit point I cut and export the smaller file just after the end of the transition I applied.  With a 6 hour project I may end up with dozens of small files to get around this problem- not very efficient.
    Any ideas how to fix this or why Encore is so buggy?  Would moving the original assets around in Womble- example taking something that was at the end of the timeline and then moving it to the beginning cause these issues for Encore?   Or is there some other cause?
    Encore CS5
    Premiere Pro CS5
    Windows 7 64 BIT
    Quad core
    2.4 GHZ clock speed
    6GB memory
    150 GB free space on drive
    NVIDIA GEFORCE 8500 card

    I've used VideoReDo in the past, which I believe has some similar strategies to Womble.  I found when I tested streams, that there were often problems in the source streams, and that the fix was not 100 percent.
    You may also find such files that are not 100 percent the same length video to audio.
    In any event, the possibility other than Encore being buggy is that the files you are bringing in have problems when Encore tries to validate them.  I'm not saying Encore doesn't have its problems, but clean mpeg files do not have sync issues ordinarily.
    For some scenarios, I like your workflow (edit mpeg files in a frame accurate mpeg editor that is not retranscoding the whole file), but the results are often not consistent.
    You don't say, and I would certainly look at, the nature of the audio stream you are using.  I can not tell you what the problems are, but some streams just do not edit well, even though they may play back okay in some players, but still have issues in Encore and/or Premiere.

  • VISA Read timing issues

    I am using an RS232 to control an older model Power Supply (OXFORD PS 120-10).
    I have successfully written several VI's that all work, the only problem is that VISA Read takes WAY too long. I'm talking 10's of seconds to refresh. I need it have it refreshing in milliseconds or at least tens of seconds for the measurements we need. All of the VI's I have written have the same timing issue. 
    Attached is the most basic Serial Read/Write VI. Is there any way to improve the Read rate? Or might this just be an instrumentation issue. The strange thing is the Write commands work almost instantaneously (I can seem them on the instruments display).
    Please help if you can, I've only been working with LabVIEW for a few weeks and am very must still in the learning process. 
    Thanks!

    Do you have the communications protocol for the power supply? If you do not have everything right, you will have problems with communications.
    Tens of seconds is a clue that you may be getting timeout errors because the default timeout is 10 seconds. Try placing an inidicator on the error out wire inside the loop (after Read) to see if an error occurs on any iteration. The way you have the VI set up you only see the error on the last iteration of the loop.
    You are writing a carriage return to the instrument. If it requires that, it almost certainly sends a carriage return with the response. (This is why I asked about the protocol). If the instrument sends a carriage return (or other termination character), then you should Enable Termination Character on the Configuration VI and set the termination character to the correct value. The default is line feed (hex A or decimal 10). A carriage return is hex D or decimal 13. You must wire the numeric value to the termination character input for any value other than the default. Then change the byte count value (at the Read input) to a number larger than the longest message the instrument will ever send, perhaps 100 or 500. The Read will end as soon as the termination character is received, regardless of the number of characters.
    I suspect that this is the problem - the instrument sends fewer than 10 characters in most messages but does send a termination character.

  • Questions about phase difference (possible timing issue) RC circuit

    Hello,
    Below is the program I am using to measure the phase difference in an RC circuit. Simply put I generate a 2kHz sine wave in LabView and send it to the circuit using an Analog output. Then I measure the output sine wave using an analog output.I also measure this using n oscilliscope. I cna clearly measure the phase difference with the oscilliscope and know it to be approximately 1.4 radians.
    Issues with the program:
    Different phase difference measured each time the program is run for the circuit. It is also never correct.
    Possible causes:
    You will notice by looking at the vi I measure the phase from the signal generator. Should I be using a second analog input to measure the sine wave as it is outputted at the start of the circuit?
    I mainly think that it is a timing issue. While the phase difference is constant each time the program it varies each on run. So the time each tone measurement begins its first measurement seems to be different each time and causes this different phase reading.
    The card I am using is a PCI 6221, is there a timing issue related from switching to input and output acquistion or are they seperate.
    Is there anyway to ensure that both tone measurements are measuring phase at the same point in (actual) time?
    I would really appreciate any advice or alterations on the program anyone could offer me (I am a college student and LabVIEW is not on our curriculum so I have no support, yet I am using it for my project (D'oh!))

    I would certainly acquire two signals.  Feed the analog output right back into an analog input and then your filtered signals in another.
    Initially, I would feed the analog output into both analog inputs and measure the phase delay due to the multiplexed A/D on the card.  Once you have that measurement, you can feed in the filtered signal and then measure the phase difference of that signal.

  • ATTENTION MOZILLA DEVELOPERS!!!! I have had numerous issues all occuring within 24-48 hours,The latest is location/address bar not working completely! Who has solutions and fixes that actually work???

    Windows 7 32bit Firefox 3.6.1.1 .... I really liked Firefox until recently!!!!
    I'm not even going to explain all the problems I have had in the last 2 days, but i will tell you i have read so many forums and have done A LOT of fixing, 8 hours worth!! So before someone suggests for me to try a common fix I have done almost all things like. <br />
    Disable extensions<br />
    Disabled/Remove add ons<br />
    Tried all in safe mode<br />
    Deleted files in Firefox Profile<br />
    Renamed files in Firefox Profile<br />
    I have done almost everything except remove Firefox and use a different browser. <br />
    What gets me most is this site (Mozilla support) is the least helpful!! i have found solutions that worked off of Non Mozilla forums!!<br />
    Ok here goes...... <br /> 1. Auto complete works in location/address bar, when I click ENTER on keyboard or click the blue arrow in address bar NOTHING HAPPENS!!! I can go to bookmarks click on one and it will go right to the page! It's like the address bar is dead! <br />2. I have NO search engines in the search bar located right next to address bar, the only solution I found for that called for typing commands in the address bar, which i can do but it wont do anything!!!<br />
    Please keep in mind I did a full Google search on these problems and have found that a lot of people have the same issues regardless of Firefox versions or Operating systems!! <br />
    This is my last attempt to get accurate and proven solutions/fixes to these problems before I wash my hands of Mozilla, I'm sure someone will tell me to just do it!!!<br />
    I am hoping to get knowledgeable responses to this post!!

    When I go to Firefox profiles folder i have 3 different profiles all with default at the end!!! Which one do i rename and wgich do I delete? See issues just keep getting stickier a more complicated!!!
    Thanks,
    Robert

    You can locate the current [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] this way:
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory > Open Containing folder
    If the 11.01 & 11.02 are empty backups then make sure that create a backup of the other .json backups elsewhere as soon as possible to avoid losing backups that may still work.
    The other profiles appear to have older bookmarks. You can check the file compatibility.ini in a profile to see which version of Firefox last used that profile.
    A possibility is to create a fourth profile to test each of the JSON backups and check which bookmarks they store. If you open that profile with the -no-remote switch then you can copy and paste bookmarks from one profile (instance) to another profile. Both profiles need to be open at the same time to do that.

  • I have transfered my music to a new computer. I have a iPhone 4S 64g  and I have a lot of music. I believed i have followed all instructions to do this. I have even unistalled itunes and reinstalled. Synching to  new computer not responding well

    Can anyone provide more specific info when transferring iTunes to new computer. i have completed all steps including the ones ive seen on the forums since others have had same issue. Uninstall iTunes. Reinstall iTunes. Check synch all music uncheck synch all music...When I try to sync with new computer it transfers music, some go into downloaded songs only, if i connect to old computer its better, and then there is the new cloud! I am regretting changing computers but it was time. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I just want my iPhone 4S 64g to synch correctly and completely.

    It is probably best to start over. These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data. If you don't have any Apple devices then see HT2519 - Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store.

  • Am being prompted to enter security questions when making a purchase on my new IPad.  I don't believe I have ever setup security questions on my apple id.  How to I create new security questions?

    I am being prompted to enter security questions when making a purchase on my new IPad.  I don't believe I have ever setup security questions on my apple id.  I have tried logging into my apple id and have chosen the security and priviacy settings to set up security questions.  However I am prompted to enter answers to security questions and am told they don't match.  How to I create new security questions or reset them? 

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • I am experiencing some major problems with my MacBook Pro. I have had some issues with it turning on/off at random times, but today, when starting, I get the grey start-up screen and a recovery bar. After filling in approx 1/4 of the way, the machine dies

    I am experiencing some major problems with my MacBook Pro. I have had some issues with it turning on/off at random times, but today, when starting, I get the grey start-up screen and a recovery bar. After filling in approx 1/4 of the way, the machine dies. After starting it in recovery mode, it will not allow me to download OS X Mavericks- it says the disk is locked. Any ideas? I do not have a back-up and do not want to erase everything before I have explored my options. Help?

    try forcing internet recover, hold 3 keys - command, option, r - you should see a spinning globe
    most people will tell you to do both pram and smc resets (google) and if you still have issues, either clean install (easy) or troubleshoot (hard)
