JavaHelp Helpsets and Help topics stored in database ???

Is it possible to store JavaHelp helpsets and topics in databases for retrieval say by an entity bean on an application server to be forwarded to the JavaHelp HelpViewer ???

We have sucessfully used javahelp with a custom network protocol handler
to fetch the documentation from specific "packages" in the classpath.
The same technique could be used with a database.
Drop me a line if you're interested in more detail.

Migrating from JavaHelp to Oracle Help for Java

Currently we have a product in which we have implemented Sun Microsystem's JavaHelp as the Help delivery system. However, after evaluating Oracle Help for Java we would like to migrate from Javahelp to OHJ.
My question is, how difficult would this migration be from the Development side? I have been reviewing the Oracle Help for Java Developer's Guide and comparing it against the JavaHelp documentation but I haven't been able to get a clear idea of how different the implementation is.
Thanks,
Theresa

Hello Theresa,
Thanks for considering Oracle Help.
There isn't much you have to do with your source content and control files. With the exception of the full text search index, the Oracle Help control file formats (helpset, index, map, etc.) extend the JavaHelp formats. So you can use the JavaHelp control files as is, or you can extend them with the Oracle Help extensions. For a quick overview of differences, see the following page in the Oracle Help Guide:
1. Go to http://otn.oracle.com/ohguide/help/.
2. Click "Oracle Help File Formats."
3. Click "Comparision to Javahelp File Formats."
To create an Oracle Help full text search index, run through the Helpset Authoring Wizard and remove the existing JavaHelp search view and have the wizard generate an Oracle Help Search index
on the following wizard page. For the Helpset Authoring Wizard doc:
1. Go to http://otn.oracle.com/ohguide/help/.
2. Click "Authoring Oracle Help Systems."
3. Click "Using the HelpSet Authoring Wizard."
Alternatively, change the helpset file by hand. For the doc:
1. Go to http://otn.oracle.com/ohguide/help/.
2. Click "Oracle Help File Formats."
3. Click "Helpset File."
Then run the indexer. For doc:
1. Go to http://otn.oracle.com/ohguide/help/.
2. Click "Authoring Oracle Help Systems."
3. Click "Using the Full-text Search Indexer."
On the development side, the APIs are different, but they are also very
simple. You create a Help object, add HelpSets, and associate topic-ids
with java UI components using the CSHManager as described in the
Oracle Help Guide:
1. Go to http://otn.oracle.com/ohguide/help/.
2. Click "Oracle Help for Java Developer's Guide."

Urgent Help Regarding Storing Word and PFD Documents

Dear Friends
I want to store my word and pdf documents in my database using 8.1.7 for windows NT. It is quiet urgent so if any one of u guys could help me step by step . How to insert and retrieve my doc and pdf files in and from database.
I'll be highly thankful to you.
Regards

The DBMS_LOB package does not support writing of data from BLOBS to the filesystem.
An export method is defined for the intermedia doc type.
NOTE: look at the notes and make sure the correct permissions are granted to the user for this method to work. This is in the 8.1.7 documentation which is not on OTN at this time...
However, the intermedia does have an export method that was implemented as a java stored procedure.
http://otn.oracle.com/doc/oracle8i_816/inter.816/relational_interface/mm_relat.htm#1078905
You can write your own java stored procedure to write the file, place the document in an intermedia doc type and use the export method, or use the relational interface export() function.

I run an itune 10.4 and would like to back up my entire library to a DVD, because I do not have an external hard drive to back it up to (as the "help" topic is sugesting). Is it possible and if so, can someone help me please.

This is no longer done via iTunes.
Use whatever CD/DVD burner software is installed on your computer.
Add the iTunes media folder to the list of files/folders to burn to disc.

What are ROWID and ROWNUM? Are they stored in database and where?

Hi All,
can anybody please answer this question
What are ROWID and ROWNUM? Are they stored in database and where?
Thanks,
Srini

ROWID can be thought of as a pointer to the physical location (on disk) of the (table) row.
From a ROWID value, Oracle can extract the file, block-within-that-file and offset-of-the-row-within-that-block. Using these, Oracle can directly access a disk block to retrieve a row.
ROWNUM is a just sequence number of a row within a result set of a query.
As said by other repliers, both are not stored. They are 'constructed' when you reference them inside a query.

Installed Xcodes and now all "Help" topics blank.

In an attempt to play "Myst Online - Uru Live" I followed instructions to install Xcodes from my original install disks. I now have the following problems:
I can't eject the install disk.
All help topics present with blank pages.
Safari will open but also presents with blank pages.
I am currently using the Firefox browser to send this question.
I am not a developer but merely an apple user who is now very much out of his depth.
If it helps, as part of the overall process I also firstly downloaded something called Macports (I think!). The instructions also mentioned something about entering the Terminal and typing a couple of lines of code, but I haven't got to this stage yet. In trying to install Macports after download, I get this message "Either uname or sed could not be found in PATH. Your system appears to be incomplete or misconfigured."
I am running an iMac 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 duo. OS 10.6.8

If I'm allowed to reply to my own question, I restarted the computer (which I now realise is the Snow Leopard OS and not Leopard) and everything is now OK with Help and Safari. I also downloaded the wrong version of Macports, which I have now corrected.
However, as part of my quest to play "Myst Online" I have to open Terminal and type in "sudo port install mystonline-cider", after which I will be asked for my password. The trouble is, after I type in the command and press return, my password is requested, but the keyboard freezes, so I can't type in anything else.

How the Payload Message and Logs are stored in the B1i Database Table: BZSTDOC

I would appreciate it if someone could provide any documentation regarding B1i database further maintenance.
for example:
I want to know how the payload message and logs are stored in the table BZSTDOC, and how can we retrieve the payload message directly from the column DOCDATA.
As described in the B1iSNGuide05 3.2 LogGarbageCollection:
to avoid the overload of the B1i Database, I set the Backup Buffer to 90 days : so this means Message Logs from the last 90 days will always be available, but is there some way we can save those old messages to a disk so that I can retrieve the payload message anytime?
in addition, let’s assume the worst, the B1iSN server or the B1i database damaged, Can we just simply restore the B1i database from a latest backup DB then it can work automatically after the B1iSN server is up and running again?
BR/Jim

Dear SAP,
Two weeks passed, I still haven't received any feedback from you guys.
Could you please have a look at my question?
How is this Question going? Is it Untouched/Solving/Reassigned ?

Where is user name and password stored for database adapter

dear all,
does any body know where is the password stored in database adapters.
I noticed it mentioned in wsdl file in encrypted format, but is there any other place it stored.
a ) before deployment
b) aftre deployment .
Thanks in advance .
Regards
Arc

you will notice a JNDI name for this e.g. eis/DB/... this is used to look at the Application Server configuration. If it doesn't exist then it will use the credentials used as design time. Not good asthe connection will be fore development mainly.
you can safely remove the mcf setting from the wsdl so it will always force the AS connection. this is good practice.
To configure the AS configuration there is the oc4j-ra.xml file for the DB adapter. Or you can configure in Enterprise Manager
EM -> oc4j_soa (home if basic install) -> Administration -> JDBC Resources
configure a connection pool and data source
then create a JNDI name entry for the DB adapter
EM -> oc4j_soa (home if basic install) -> Applications -> Drop Down box select Adapter Resources -> DB Adapter
Use the examples. You will see that the connect string = jdbc/DBName

Help with creating a database instance and populating it

the project given to me is to create a database and populate it in berkeley DB. use that as the backend to the Oracle Business Intelligence tool and run some tests.
with other databases like oracle, sybase and teradata, there were user interfaces both GUI and CLI to create a database. they provides sql interfaces for DDL/DML execution to create objects and populate them. basically these utilities helped me do my project successfully. but in berkeley DB i find very minimal utilities and they dont correspond to those provided by other databases.
is there an interface in berkeley db for sql execution
in general how do i create database and populate data in berkeley db
thanks
[email protected]

Hi Prasanna,
is there an interface in berkeley db for sql executionNo, Berkeley DB does not provide an SQL interface. It is a library that can be used to store and retrieve key/data pairs in a database. The Berkeley DB reference guide is a good place to look if you want to get an overview of Berkeley DB functionality:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/ref/toc.html
in general how do i create database and populate data in Berkeley db You generally need to write code to do that. There are a number of programming language bindings provided for Berkeley DB, including a Perl binding. So you can write your testing code in the Perl scripting language if that suits you.
If you intend to measure performance I would recommend using the C or C++ APIs to build your application. The best way to become familiar with using Berkeley DB is with the Getting started guides found here:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/index.html
Or by familiarizing yourself with the example applications that are shipped with the source distribution.

Alex

Can someone please tell me how to extend a piece of music I have created in garageband, I cannot find anything in the help topics and i am new to the system.

Can someone please tell me how to extend a piece of music that I have created in garageband. I am new to the system and cannot find any info in the help topics. The music is currently only 1 minute and I need it to be 1.39sec to fit in with the film it will be used with in iMovie. Thanks.

Yes, it helps.
You are using a version of the newest GarageBand 10.0, and not GarageBand '11 as in your original post. And I was sending you screenshots from GarageBand '11, LOL!
In GarageBand 10.0 is the end-of-song marker hiding behind the zoom controls. Zoom out as far as possible by shifting the zoom scrollbar to the left. Then you should be able to see a corner of the end-of-song marker peeping out behind the zoom control. Try to grab it with the mouse pointer and shift it to the time you want.

What is the use of Database View, maintenace , projection and Help view

hello friends,
I created tables..and set check table relation.
how to create Database View, maintenace , projection and Help view
phani

Hi,
have a look at this.
4 type of views
database
maintainance
help
projection view
check this link as well
(https://forums.sdn.sap.com/click.jspa?searchID=9904886&messageID=4885135)
Database views are implemented with an equivalent view on the database.
Projection views are used to hide fields of a table (only projection).
Database views should be created if want to select logically connected data from different tables simultaneously.
Database views implement an inner join.
Application programs can access the data of a database view using the database interface. (Just as we write select queries on database tables, we can write them for views as well.)
Includes in Database Views
An entire table can be included in a database view. In this case all the fields of the included table will become fields of the view (whereby you can explicitly exclude certain fields).
To include one of the tables in the view, enter character * in field View field, the name of the table to be included in field Table and character * again in field Field name on the View fields tab page of the maintenance screen of the view.
You can also exclude individual fields of an included table. If you do not want to include a field of the included table in the view, enter - in field View field, the name of the included table in field Table and the name of the field to be excluded in field Field name.
Inserts with Database Views
If a database view contains only one single table, data can be inserted in this table with the view .
You have the following options for the contents of the table fields not contained in the view:
If the field is defined on the database with NOT NULL as initial value, the field is filled with the corresponding initial value.
If the field is defined on the database as NOT NULL without initial value, an insert is not possible. This results in a database error.
If the field is not defined on the database as NOT NULL, there will be a NULL value in this field.
A maintenance view permits you to maintain the data of an application object together.
The maintenance status determines which accesses to the data of the underlying tables are possible with the maintenance view.
Read only: Data can only be read through the view.
Read, change, delete, insert: Data of the tables contained in the view can be
changed, deleted, and inserted through the view.
Read and change: Existing view entries can be changed. However, records
cannot be deleted or inserted.
Read and change (time-dependent views): Only entries whose non-time
dependent part of the key is the same as that of existing entries may be
inserted.
Maintenance View ( SE54 )
You can use a maintenance view to maintain data, which is distributed over several tables, at the same time.
Maintenance views enable a business-oriented approach to looking at data, while at the same time, making it possible to maintain the data involved. Data from several tables can be summarized in a maintenance view and maintained collectively via this view. That is, the data is entered via the view and then distributed to the underlying tables by the system.
Creating maintenance View:

[Forum FAQ] How do i use xml stored in database as dataset in SQL Server Reporting Services?

Introduction
There is a scenario that users want to create SSRS report, the xml used to retrieve data for the report is stored in table of database. Since the data source is not of XML type, when we create data source for the report, we could not select XML as Data Source
type. Is there a way that we can create a dataset that is based on data of XML type, and retrieve report data from the dataset?
Solution
In this article, I will demonstrate how to use xml stored in database as dataset in SSRS reports.
Supposing the original xml stored in database is like below:
<Customers>
<Customer ID="11">
<FirstName>Bobby</FirstName>
<LastName>Moore</LastName>
</Customer>
<Customer ID="20">
<FirstName>Crystal</FirstName>
<LastName>Hu</LastName>
</Customer>
</Customers>
Now we can create an SSRS report and use the data of xml type as dataset by following steps:
In database, create a stored procedure to retrieve the data for the report in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) with the following query:
CREATE PROCEDURE xml_report
AS
DECLARE @xmlDoc XML;
SELECT @xmlDoc = xmlVal FROM xmlTbl WHERE id=1;
SELECT T.c.value('(@ID)','int') AS ID,
T.c.value('(FirstName[1])','varchar(99)') AS firstName,
T.c.value('(LastName[1])','varchar(99)') AS lastName
FROM
@xmlDoc.nodes('/Customers/Customer') T(c)
GO
P.S. This is an example for a given structured XML, to retrieve node values from different structured XMLs, you can reference here.
Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server, and then click Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS) OR SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT). If this is the first time we have opened SQL Server Data Tools, click Business Intelligence
Settings for the default environment settings.
On the File menu, point to New, and then click Project.
In the Project Types list, click Business Intelligence Projects.
In the Templates list, click Report Server Project.
In Name, type project name.
Click OK to create the project.
In Solution Explorer, right-click Reports, point to Add, and click New Item.
In the Add New Item dialog box, under Templates, click Report.
In Name, type report name and then click Add.
In the Report Data pane, right-click Data Sources and click Add Data Source.
For an embedded data source, verify that Embedded connection is selected. From the Type drop-down list, select a data source type; for example, Microsoft SQL Server or OLE DB. Type the connection string directly or click Edit to open the Connection Properties
dialog box and select Server name and database name from the drop down list.
For a shared data source, verify that Use shared data source reference is selected, then select a data source from the drop down list.
Right-click DataSets and click Add Dataset, type a name for the dataset or accept the default name, then check Use a dataset embedded in my report. Select the name of an existing Data source from drop down list. Set Query type to StoredProcedure, then select
xml_report from drop down list.
In the Toolbox, click Table, and then click on the design surface.
In the Report Data pane, expand the dataset we created above to display the fields.
Drag the fields from the dataset to the cells of the table.

Problem occurs when in my first row i have 3 columns and in next page if I have one columns then it show proper on first page but on second page also it gives me three columns insted of one. the first column data is exactly what I have but in remaining two
columns it shows some garbage data.
I have data like below.
Metric ColumnNo RowNo
1 1
1
2 2
1
3 3

so while grouping i have a row parent group on RowNo and Column group on ColumnNo.
can anyone please advice on this.

database. I am integrating the flex with spring and hibernate
also.can you please tell me how can I connect(Flex to Java

link.All the documents are stored in database.So for example if a
user clicks on a link on flex frontend screen it needs to open a
pdf file whihc is stored in database.So can you please post me the
connection details as how flex calls java and inturn java calls
backend to get the document from database.I am using flex,Spring
and hibernate frameworks for the application..

Let's start with the basics:
Do you already have an understanding of how you'd perform
these steps if
Flex were not involved (i.e. some sort of static or dynamic
html page in the
browser)?
