Is there a program to get the GUID of a Mozzilla application or Mozilla fork such as K-Meleon or Waterfox or is there a respository that contains these GUIDs?

We have several plugins that in the past successfully ran in other Mozilla based browsers such as K-Meleon, Sea-Monkey, Netscape, etc.
In the past the plugin needed to be manually installed or required a special downloadable installer to get the plugin installed/ working with browsers like these.
Recent work on many of these projects now allow you to install plugins directly through the web or though about:addons and then restart the browser to complete the installation, just like in Firefox.
We have the list of the most popular GUIDs from the Mozilla documentation listed below, however we do not have the GUIDs for the more obscure Mozilla based forks or projects.
- Firefox, Thunderbird, Nvu, Mozilla Suite or Mozilla Browser 1.x, SeaMonkey, Sunbird, Netscape, Flock, and Mobile.
Is there a way to find the GUIDs for these other browsers: K-Meleon, Waterfox, Firefox Nightly (we are guessing the Nightly builds use the same GUID as Firefox) so that we can add the appropriate information to our install.rdf and update.rdf files or does one need to get in contact with the respective projects to determine these?
For our use either an application that does this, or even a small script that could be run to determine the GUID of these other Mozilla based browsers would be great. If these don't exist, is there a public document or repository that can be accessed to get these GUIDs?
Additionally, is it possible that some of the obscure Mozilla based forks do not contain or utilize GUIDs that are used by the install.rdf and update.rdf manifests? If so, what can we do so that our plugins can be installed automatically for these browsers through the web or about:addons?
Is there a way to tell an install manifest that a particular browser is supported even though no GUID exists for that browser so that the installation can proceed as normal for that browser?
My apologies for the lengthy details and for so many questions. I have searched around and have not been able to find answers to these questions so I figure what better place than directly from Mozilla.
Thanks again for so many great products over the years and for the continued development of most of them. :-)

Kevin, there are a few questions I can answer, but if you have irc you can also reach out to the #addons channel. I will also try to get in touch.

I do not know. There are generating GUIDS [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Generating_GUIDs]

  • Is there any way to get the appStore link for my application

    Hi everyone , i am developing an app which has a feature of sharing its appstore link with the friends through mail,so that they can see my appplication in appstore and buy it directly on click of a button. For that i need to use the app store link of my application for sending it . is there any way to get that and using it dynamically in my app immediately after releasing it.

    Your best bet would be to create a web page of your own for the app. Design that page so that it uses 'META REFRESH' to redirect the visitor straight to the App Store link.
    That way you can hard-wire your own web page address into your app.
    This has the advantage that it can work well even before you've noticed that your app has arrived on the App Store. Create a real web page, describing the app and telling people to search for it in the App Store by name - then replace it with the auto-redirect page when you've discovered your application's App Store address.

  • Is there a way to get the calculator from the dashboard to appear along with other programs?  Can anyone recommend a calculator which will work as a stand alone app?

    AS it stands now, in order to use the calculator that comes with the Dashboard, you cannot read from a list of numbers in, lets say, word or excel. The dashboard is full screen and nothing can stand along side it. Is there a way to get the calculator from the dashboard to appear along with other programs?  Can anyone recommend a calculator which will work as a stand alone app?

    there is one, just search with spotlight "Calculator".
    It works great!
    Hope this helps.

  • Is there a way to get the songs back after you do a sync and erase? I no longer have them stored on my harddrive.

    Thanks to a wonderful geeksquad agent all my songs have been deleted from my ipod. They had to restore my computer so the ones I downloaded are no longer on my harddrive or in itunes. Is there a way to get the songs back after you do a sync and erase?

    If they are on the iPod there are third-party programs that will transfer then to  a computer. See:

    If they ae not on either the iPOd or the computer they are gone.

  • Any table or program to get the number of records in P, A and F tables

    HI all
    any table for program to get the number of records in P, A and F tables. I want to create SQ01 queries to get the status of number of records. We are gng for a production cutover next week. Want to capture all the data before and after Upgrade cutover.
    Also suggest me how to create sq01 queries.
    Thanks in advance
    regards

    Use Transaction LISTSCHEMA to see all the tables assosciated with ur cube
    Total number would be what you find in both the E & F fact tables. If there is no compression in the cube then E table will be empty.
    Alternatively u can use se16 transaction and enter E table and F table manually
    E table - /BIC/E(Cube name) and Ftable -  /BIC/F(Cube name)
    Or else u can go to the manage of the cube and without selecting any field for O/P and ticking the option output number of hits execute. The total of Row Count will give u the total no of records in the cube.

  • Is there any way to get the files from other computer ?

    Hai all,
    I have 2 computers connected. I know the IP address of other computer. Is there any way to get the files from other computer. (for e.g. I want to get the files from specific folder. In Java netwroking is it possible? (Any programs)
    regards,

    Bro Take it easy.
    Think you need to send a Image file named ("abc.gif")
    now develop a server using ServerSocket and connect it in local IP and any PORT
    For example i think ur server is connected in "localhost" and 9000 port.
    Now make ur server educated using some commands.
    For example:
    FileName: <File Name String>
    [Means new file is sending by connected client]
    FileSize: <File size long or int value>
    [ So that ur server can determind about the total length of sender file]
    DataModeOpen
    [Now your client will send its image data, this command means your client software is sending data]
    fjadlkfjaofaijojfwoeiurfodkjflsajlfksa
    l23j4lj23lkjlasjfoq23j4rokjelfkjasldkf
    2o3j4lk2j3ljslakdjf2l3j4 l23kjlk23k4j
    DataModeClose
    [Means file sending finished]
    Close
    [Means your client connection is closed]
    Now develop a client supporting this command.
    For example(Server):
    String getFileName=null;
    long getFileSize=0;
    public handleCommand(String getCmd) {
        if(getCmd.startsWith("FileName")) {
                String[] splitData=getCmd.split(":");
                this.getFileName=   splitData[1];
                outPutStream.writeBytes("+OK");
        } else if(getCmd.startsWith("FileSize")) {
                String[] splitData=getCmd.split(":");
                this.getFileSize=Long.parseLong(splitData[1]);
                outPutStream.writeBytes("+OK");
        } else if(getCmd.startsWith("DataModeOpen")) {
               //data mode open so receive data
              receiveData();
              outPutStream.writeBytes("+OK");
        } else if(getCmd.startsWith("DataModeClose")) {
              //close client socket
             getClientSocket.close();
    }For client:
    DataInputStream dataIn=null;
    BufferedOutputStream bout=null;
    public sendFile(bytes[] getBytes) {
            //if ok found then do other or show error message
        if(sendCmd("FileName:"+getFileName)) {
            if(sendCmd("FileSize:"+getFileSize)) {
                if(sendCmd("DataModeOpen")) {
                   bout.write(getBytes);
                } else {
                   showError(3);
            } else {
                   showError(2);
       } else {
            showError(1);

  • I am trying to reinstall Windows on my macbook pro.  I downloaded the support files and Windows 7 iso file to a USB drive.  However, when I try to run the setup.exe program I get the message "this program cannot be run in DOS mode."

    I am trying to reinstall Windows (would not launch).  I removed the partition and started over.  I downloaded the support files and Windows 7 iso file to a USB drive.  However, when I try to run the setup.exe program I get the message "this program cannot be run in DOS mode."  I was successful before, what am I doing wrong this time?

    Try a restart.
    If that doesn't fix the problem, shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application unistaller. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

  • Is there a way go get the item number of the current item?

    In an item with multiple instances: Is there a way to get the item number of the current item? If for instance, I am on the 3rd item, is there some kind of “GET CURRENT RECORD NUMBER” built-in that would return a ‘3' to the program?

    If i am getting you correctly that in tabular item you want to know the current record or current item you can try this...
    For current record
    :SYSTEM.CURSOR_RECORD;
    or
    :SYSTEM.CURRENT_RECORD;for current item

    [email protected]

    Hello. 
    Thank you for posting to the NI Discussion Forums. 
    The functionality that you desire should be accomplished by the "GetDeviceNet Attribute.vi".  This VI "Get(s) an attribute value from a DeviceNet device using an Explicit Messaging Object."  Utilizing the context help in LabVIEW, you will see that the ClassId, InstanceId, and AttributeId controls which attribute you will return the value of.  The description of the AttributeId states that it "Identifies the attribute to get. Attribute IDs are listed in the class and instance descriptions in the DeviceNet Specification. The attribute's description also lists the DeviceNet data type for the attribute's value."  So, this should allow you to proceed to get the information that you desire.  At the bottom of the context help, there is a great example about retrieving the serial number attribute. 
    Let me know if you have any further questions!

  • Is there any way to get the height/width of an image before importing it in the indesign document.

    Hi All,
    I need to obtain an image's attributes such as dimensions (height, width in pixels) without placing image in indesign document.
    I have full path of the image (say abc.jpg is stored at c:\my pic\abc.jpg).
    I have obtained the IDFile for this image, tried getting size using GetFileSize() which correctly return size in bytes.
    Is there any way to get the height/width of image without importing it in the indesign document.
    Please, give me some hints. I have spent quite a lot time digging in CHM. I have searched in FileUtils, IDFile API's but found no method which serves this purpose.
    At this point I am clueless where to search next.
    Any help will be appriciated.
    Just a point to mention, I am able to get image height and width for an image in indesign doc though Its not my requirement.
    Thnx,
    D.

    You might be able to examine the contents of the PlaceGun after calling kImportAndLoadPlaceGunCmdBoss without actually placing the image in a document. Not sure, but would be worth looking at.
    Otherwise you will probably have to write platform specific code, ideally with a generic platform-independant wrapper (see SDKSamples/paneltreeview/PlatformFileSystemIterator).
    For the Mac, look at CGImageGetWidth() etc., not sure what the best option is for windows.
    Perhaps Quicktime could provide you with a platform independant solution.

  • Is there a way to get the correct order from the dependent types of a sche

    Hi ,
    I have a CT facing the following problem:
    When trying to built a SQL script to create all the object types within a schema using the DBMS_METADATA packages.
    Did insert in a table the names of the types that will be exported following a concrete order, next loop into the table and call the DBMS_METADATA package for each row.
    These type are depedent between them, there are some type attributes calling other types and here the issue
    First : try to generate the order by created column of dba_objects and when the generated SQL script is launched a lot of type appearing as incomplete state due to the order isn't correct.
    Second : try to insert the table ordering by object_id colums of dba_tables view, it appears incomplete types too.
    Currently want to insert the table using a recursive query with connect by against the dba_type_attrs starting with the rows when ATTR_TYPE_NAME is not null (the types that are called by other types), but this way has a issue dificult to resolve: the roots of hierarchy are the rows when ATTR_TYPE_NAME is not null and we've dependencies between roots nodes
    The question is is there a way to get the correct order from the dependent types of a schema?
    Platform: IBM SP AIX
    DB version: 9.2.0.7
    Any help will be appreciated .
    Thanks in advance.

    The xxx_dependencies view should give you the dependencies betwee nthe various types. I would look at something along the lines of:
    SELECT object_name, referenced_name
    FROM (SELECT o.object_name, d.referenced_name
          FROM user_objects o, user_dependencies d
          WHERE o.object_name = d.name(+) and
                o.object_type = d.type(+) and
                d.referenced_type(+) = 'TYPE' and
                o.object_type = 'TYPE')
    START WITH referenced_name IS NULL
    CONNECT BY PRIOR object_name = referenced_nameThe outer join between user_objects and user_dependencies is required to generate the names of types which are not dependent on other types, or do not have other types dependent on them.

    Can't remember my security questions and can't access my back up email address is there a way of getting the information sent to another email?

    No. 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.
