Is Xcode free for non-developers?

Hi,
I saw that I can download it and it's 1.8 GB, can I install it on my mac with a non-developer account or it will ask for a developer account before installation?
Sorry but 1.8 GB is too large for me.
BTW, does this include iOS SDK?
Thanks!

Xcode is available in the App Store for free for everybody. It includes iOS and OS X SDK

  • Interactive Report actions don't work for users (i.e. for non-developers)

    I've Interactive Reports that work fine in development. But when I or other users run it in non-development mode, no feature or actions (sorting, filtering, select columns, aggregate, etc.) work. At run time (going directly to the URL ...apex/f?p=APP_ID), the actions menu is enabled for users and it allows them to go through the process of filtering (select column, pick opeartor, pick value) and click-apply, but nothing happens after that! The interactive report comes back with the data as it was before the filtering was applied. Same thing happens with other action-menu features (no affect).
    Please help since I've a demo tomorrow to show these features. Thanks.

    Why would you post this same issue twice? Did you think it would help get an answer faster?
    I see the second post here: Re: Actions Menu in Interactive Reports does not sort, filter, select cols etc

  • Privileges to EUL5_X objects for non-developers using PLUS

    I have granted only SELECT access to the EUL5_xxx objects (tables, views and Sequence) to users who will only be accessing shared reports and not creating their own.. But those users get an insufficient privileges error.. So I have to give them the same as the developers (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE),,,
    Does anyone know why that is ? Or better what are list of tables that require these DML privileges for users who will only be running reports - again - not creating them
    thanks
    OBX.....

    Yes I know the capabilities and function of the Disco Administrator... But I am more concerned with people using their account, inadvertently , to perform DML functions on the EUL_X tables.. To me this seems like a major security hole, for all it takes is a savvy users to use MS Access, setup an ODBC connection and boom - they could easily delete data... Naturally there is no reason for them to do so - but that deos not safeguard the disco metadata..
    Seems like a big issue with Discoverer..
    So if I am wrong - please let me know....

  • Is the Oracle database free for private persons?

    Is the Oracle database free for private developers, just testing the database, or do I have to personally contact them in order to pay them? I just went to the Oracle download page and downloaded 2 pcs. 1 GB install files, installed the database on my Windows 7 machine and then started using it.

    Did you pay heed to the license agreement you accepted before downloading the software ? The usage restrictions are spelled out clearly.

    I received a notice that there is an update for my Lightroom 5. I have the non-creative cloud version. Is the update available for non-cloud users? It says to download click the link and it takes me to Cloud free trial screen.

    It is the same installer. You can run it as 30-days trial (CC version) and decide later for CC or stand-alone. To license as stand-alone, follow this guide.
    If you already have the LR6 license key, you can enter it during setup and do not need to follow the guide.

  • Learning OO Concepts & Java2  for mainframe developers - prefer free

    I believe I have read through all of the postings which came up during a search for "object oriented" and I don't believe my question has been answered.
    I am putting together a training plan recommendation for my boss (I work for a US state agency, therefore I need to watch the $$$ and would prefer solutions which are free) for teaching OO and Java to the entire applications team. About 70% of the developers are mainframe programmers with no knowledge of OO and the rest are client/server developers all with at least a VB background and varied knowledge of OO. My goal is to come up with a plan which will provide everyone with a good and sound foundation in OO (not just learning about "what is an object") and then incorporate learning Java 2 (eventually moving towards J2EE). I'm pretty convinced that between the "new to Java Programming Center" site and others, we can achieve the J2 knowledge for free. I'm not so sure about the OO knowledge. That's where I need your help!
    I have perused Bruce Eckel's book and even he himself has said that he wrote this based on the reader's fundamental understanding of C, so this is probably not the route to take.
    The Sun site has a free tutorial, "Learning the Java Language", which appears to just tackle a few of the concepts.
    Is there anything else out there or a more elementary question - is this the right approach to take (or should we learn OO by way of learning J2)? I am ideally looking at free stuff first, but would entertain books, CBT's, etc. which are not costly (already know about "Developing Java Software" by Winder and Roberts and an Object Technology book by Taylor).
    Help!!! Thanks! Janet

    Hi Janet,
    It sounds like you have your work cut out for you. I'm curious why you're looking to separate the OO concepts from the Java ones. Is your goal for everyone to learn Java in the end? Or do you just want everyone to learn about OO concepts and only some of them actually learn Java? I can understand wanting to have a strong OO foundation before moving to Java, but I think the two can often be taught simultaneously.
    Another thought -- do you think it would be easier to have one person (I'm guessing you) do a crash course on OO and Java first and then teach it to everyone else? Or are you planning on having everyone go through it together? I would think if you could nail the basic concepts on your own, you could then effectively pass your knowledge onto the others.
    Unfortunately I don't have any books to recommend, but I did do a quick search on Google and I found a few tutorials that focus mostly on OO concepts. When it comes time to learn Java, I'm pretty confident that the Java Tutorial on Sun's website is a good place to start. Books like Java In A Nutshell (O'Reilly) are good because they're part textbook, part reference manual, but that might be out of the question because of the money. In any case, check out some of these sites. They seem to be a step in the right direction; and if nothing else, they're free!

  • License for "non profit organisations"

    Hi Kodo Developer,
    my native language is german - so please excuse any curios diction...
    I'm working with Kodo since my degree dissertation in December 2001.
    Your work and the surrounding topics about object/relation-mapping was
    the root of the matter, so thanks to all people, who mangaged to get
    Kodo working. Especially thanks for your help in the newsgroup many mothes
    ago!
    As i mentioned: Kodo was part of my dissertation, which comprised a
    midrange
    project to store and retrieve data of corneas and their donors. The
    ophthalmic clinic (one of the bigest in Germany) is depend on my work,
    because clinics in
    Germany are suppost to be non profit and so they depend on the money they
    get from department of health. And as you may know the finacial situation
    in this sector is very bad. This is one of the reason why my work for
    this project is for free! So let me ask you: is there any way to get Kodo
    not for free (of course!) but for less than the full license price? Is it
    possible to buy a "No Deployment"- License - just for the current project?
    I dont now if its possible to avoid any use outside this project - but i
    assure so that i will not use this special license in other projects.
    Maybe Solarmetric is selling academicaly license?
    So please think about my petition - the clinic is a non profit
    organisation!
    But let me be more technical:
    I'm using for busines-classes no ide - just ant (apache sf) as build tool.
    The database is PostgreSQL and MySQL. For testing i use the database from
    enhydra. In the Future there is the plan to use this solution to exchange
    cornea and donor data between several clinics so there is the need for
    the distributed (enterprise) version.
    In the end let me thank you all once again for implementing the jdo
    specification!
    Best regards, Claudius Gr____ver
    PS: When i employed (searching still) i will any time suggest my employer
    to use Kodo!

    Hi Claudius,
    We most definitely have a Academic Program for teachers and researchers. In
    addition, we have put together a program for non-profit organizations as
    well. For more information and an application for the program, please

    chance to download Kodo JDO 2.3.1, but we are very excited about the changes
    in this most current version of Kodo JDO that includes a preview release of
    our reverse schema mapping tool.

  • Can Jdeveloper Be Used For Non-Oracle Databases

    I have been trying to evaluate Jdeveloper 9i and Jbuilder 7 Enterprise for Swing database development. I am particularly interested in the productivity enhancements such as BC4J and Jclient. The underlying database might be Oracle, SapDb (excellent, easy to use, and free), SQLServer, etc.
    I evaluated Jbuilder Enterprise tools and it worked flawlessly with SapDb. This emphasized using their DataExpress and DbSwing components which provide many useful capabilities similar to BC4j and Jclient. It also involved using their DBPilot tool which allows browsing similar to that provided via a Jdeveloper connection.
    I tried to use Jdeveloper for the same SapDB and it is essentially non-functional. I followed the instructions for using a non-default driver and tried to define a connection. It behaved inconsistently: often saying no suitable driver can be found and yet when you edit the connection and test without making any changes, it works. If you try to establish a BC4J definition, it is very inconsistent and fails to recognize important details as foreign keys. Even if you define a ViewLink manually, it still does not work properly if you attempt to define a Master-Detail Jclient form. As I have stated, all these types of capabilities worked flawlessly in their Jbuilder equivalent. Furthermore, I really like the fact that Jbuilder gives many of BC4Js benefits without needing a BC4J J2EE container.
    Has anyone had real success using Jdeveloper's advanced features to develop for non-Oracle databases and if so, how did you get around these types of problems?

    Hi,
    generally, SCAN can be used for 10g databases and you discovered the first half: for 10g databases you will have to modify the REMOTE_LISTENER entry for each 10g database instance to point to the SCAN listeners (as opposed to pointing to the remote local listeners, which is the default in 10g). You could even have the databases registers themselves with SCAN and the remote listeners, if you wanted to... It's more or less a matter of configuration. But for simplification reasons, I will stick to the case where you have your 10g databases register with the SCAN listeners only.
    Now the other half is the client and the client configuration. An 11g Rel. 2 client configured for RAC would have a TNSNAMES entry that has only one address line for the RAC databases. The host entry in this one address line should point to the SCAN (the SCAN name is ideally resolved in DNS). A 10g client configured for RAC would have as many address lines in the TNSNAMES as you have nodes in the cluster.
    The 10g client SCAN configuration would then be in the middle so to speak: You would have 3 address lines in your TNSNAMES, in which each host entry would resolve to one SCAN address (I assume you will use the recommended default of 3 SCAN IPs). If you choose, you can have a name resolution for each of your SCAN IPs, but this would not be required. Now, why would you do it this way? Because this configuration will always work and does not make you dependent on certain functionality that your DNS server may or may not offer.
    For the remaining questions: SCAN is a DNS entry resolving one name to more than one (typically 3) IP addresses. OID is short for Oracle Internet Directory, which is a complete LDAP server. And you are right that there is no document how to configure 10g clients for SCAN from Oracle yet. However, there is a quite good document on SCAN on otn.oracle.com/rac, but I am sure you are aware of it already.
    Hope that helps. Thanks,
    Markus

  • MR11- for non material item

    I just try to do for one PO with all non material item and
    I can't do MR11 for non material item..
    error:      Error  while determining the currency types for 6302400500 00010

    Hello,
    a non material item can be a text item but it can be also a service item.
    This depends from your customizing. Which item type is relevant for your non material item.
    In the item type you can maintain if an item is relvant for pricing or not.
    Please have a look in transaction VOV7. Here you can set the flag 'Pricing'.
    This flag can have the following specification:
          Blank  No pricing
    X     Pricing standard
    A     Pricing for empties
    B     Pricing for free goods (100% discount)  
    I hope that the information are helpful.
    Best regards

    Nobody here can fix your problem, we do not work for Apple. And I have no idea what "Chrho" means. Neither does Google.
    So - exactly what happens when you try to download a program? And from where are you trying to download it?

  • Gallery for non .mac?

    Is Web gallery even an option for non .mac domains? I host my personal website on godaddy and am wondering if the coolness that is the new Web .mac gallery can be "published" to godaddy.

    Hi Dave, the beauty about ajax+XML is exactly that you don't need a complicated markup to render flashy pages, the XML part is handled by iPhoto itself and you just need the script to do whatever it wants with your photos, trust me, you don't need a .Mac account or anything more that the script and a plain and common web server, there's no behind-the-scenes magic.
    But don't trust me, go here: http://www.ontoinfo.com/2006/09/22/javascript-flying-pictures-effect/ follow the instructions, make sure to copy the script from their link at their second paragraph and just paste it on your address bar, and that's a ONE-LINE script, much smaller that a tiny picture in size, and you can run that script on any website on the web, provided they got many pictures so you can enjoy it, no special web server or behind-the-scenes magic, just paste it on your address bar.
    It's common to find stuff that you hadn't upload on most web servers, and I don't think Apple would be so naive to put them freely available on user accounts.
    I don't spend my lunch uploading a gallery either, I just use the free Picasa plug-in on iPhoto and it gets uploaded in a couple of minutes, it may not be that flashy, but has more features and control than .Mac, Picasa as you might know is Google, and they master at web applications (ajax too BTW).
    I was a .Mac user for years when it was free and even when they made it a pay service I stayed for a year, still in my own opinion not worthy. Also I got three iPods, The one I use everyday (a 60GB) is full and have never paid a premium or a subscription for it, iTMS is not available in my country for that matter, but if it were, I would gladly pay .99 for a song, but not $69 for a script and 10 useless GB (that's me).
    Yes I've tried iWeb twice, once when it came out and the other a week ago, I didn't like it then, and a week ago found it pretty disappointing, some new stuff but still renders the most horrible markup ever, a simple page takes 10 times to render. Rapidweaver does a much better job.
    On the other hand, and despite the huge disappointment of iWeb, iMovie and the .Mac fiasco, I love iPhoto, it is really and noticeably faster and the keyword engine is great. Also I would pay $80 for Pages and Keynote each, and Numbers is a good start.

  • Is it FREE for commercial use?

    Dear all,
    Has been using Skype for the past few years, and mostly for my personal usage.
    Just to clarify something about Skype Licensing, is it FREE for commercial use? For example, I myself and my current/ex colleagues are using Skype for working related purposes, be it just texting or calls or video calls. Do we need to purchase licenses/subscription for commercial use? For your reference, we're from Malaysia.
    Appreciate if anyone there care to explain on this matter.
    Regards,
    Edmund

    I would start by looking at Oracle information - while we can provide hints and give guidance, Oracle is the only legal source for license information.
    My suggestion in general is to use the Oracle site and the Oracle docs, and take a hard copy of that information as backup in case of legal challenges.
    That said, the intent for XE is to provide a 'no license fee to put into production' version of Oracle Database Server. It has limited functionality (no Java in DB, limited storage and memory) so it is not generally a worry for Oracle. The supporting references are
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/express-edition/overview/index.html - which says "It's free to develop, deploy, and distribute; ..." and
    "Oracle Database XE is a great starter database for:
    Developers working on PHP, Java, .NET, XML, and Open Source applications
    DBAs who need a free, starter database for training and deployment
    Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) and hardware vendors who want a starter database to distribute free of charge
    Educational institutions and students who need a free database for their curriculum
    as well as http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17781_01/license.112/e18068/toc.htm, in which we read
    "License Rights
    We grant you a nonexclusive, nontransferable limited license to use the programs for: (a) purposes of developing, prototyping and running your applications for your own internal data processing operations; (b) you may also distribute the programs with your applications; (c) you may use the programs to provide third party demonstrations and training; and d) you may copy and distribute the programs to your licensees provided that each such licensee agrees to the terms of this Agreement. You are not permitted to u...'
    YOU ARE ENCOURAGED TO HAVE YOUR LEGAL TEAM LOOK AT THAT LICENSE DOC.

  • Is Oracle free for science?

    Hi
    Can anyone explain me is Oracle RDBMS free for scientific research (because research is non-commercial and non-production)?
    Thank you in advance

    Licensing questions really need to be addressed to Oracle Sales. Any answers we provide here are not binding on Oracle. And if there is ever a question in the future, relying on advice from "some guy on the internet" is probably not a position you want to be in.
    When you download software from OTN, you agree to a license. You'll want to read that carefully
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/popup-license/standard-license.html
    Based on my (very unofficial) reading of the clause
    "If you use the application you develop under this license for any internal data processing or for any commercial or production purposes, or you want to use the programs for any purpose other than as permitted under this agreement, you must contact us, or an Oracle reseller, to obtain the appropriate license."
    I would tend to assume that your application would be used for "internal data processing," and would thus require a license.
    Of course, if you have less than 4 GB of data, you could always use the totally free express edition.
