Jdapi 255 context limit?
Hello,
I iterate over some forms with Jdapi, but I hit a "Could not create new forms context" after 255 forms, even If I call Jdapi.shutdown() between the iterations to clean up resources. Any ideas?

Howto overcome the 255 char limit in XSLT when outputting using method=text
Hi, I am facing a problem in my XSLT program to output a CSV file. The header line is exceeding 255 char limit, seems built into the editor and looks like it repeats the 255th character into the next line where it finishes the rest of the line. Now this screws the columns in the CSV file. I have tried different combinations of <xsl:text></xsl:text> tags but to no avail.
Is there a way to overcome this problem, spanning a line onto multiple lines in SAP but getting a single line in the output ?
Thanks in advance.
SwapanI should have known better to searched in SAP provided documentation instead here first. I needed to end the line with &> chars to continue into the next line.

Copying multiple sheets, 255 character limit
Hi all -
I have a script that copies multiple worksheets to a new workbook based on criteria. All the worksheets use the same template. Two of the cells (A6 & A8) contain more than 255 characters so all the text does not get transferred to the new workbook. Is there a way to 'bypass' the 255 character limit? If not, can I somehow tie in the copying of A6 & A8 to the copying of 'every sheet' without actually scripting every single sheet? Make sense? Here's the code -
tell application "Microsoft Excel"

Thank you!I'm sorry, here's a quick summary - all of our product specs are in one workbook. There's 5 different product categories (only scripting 3 for now). Each category of product is produced at a different manufacturing plant. When changes are made to the spec sheets, I need to export each category of products into their own new workbook so I can distribute it to the appropriate plant. I might need to export one category, some, or all. Make sense? Pain in butt.
So! I think the code you provided is heading in the right direction...but I obviously have something in the wrong spot. It's taking the copied sheets in xbook and making three additional copies. Also, the cells are not being copied. I'm assuming the "copy worksheets exportSheets before..." is in the wrong spot, but I'm not sure how to fix it.
Also, I could duplicate the original workbook and delete unwanted sheets. The current script has grown beyond my initial expectation, so that might be a better option!
BTW - I don't understand why you have "set value of cell..." and then "set value of range...". Can these both be cell or range, or is there a reason for the two?
Thank you so much for your patience and details!

Virtual mail hosts: 255 character limit on SPF records
This one was a surprise to me, and caused a lot of headache, so I thought I'd pass it along.
I'm running multiple virtual mail hosts off of my doughty PowerMac single G5 1.8GHz running OS X Server 10.4.11. Some of the outgoing mail was being bounced as spam because a) there wasn't an SPF record on any of the domains and b) the domain of the mailserver didn't always match the domain of the sender. (Most often, it went out under the hostname of the server, cerberus.limbo.jcf.org—which is useless, since that's a LAN address.)
Trying to be a good citizen (and make sure that all of everyone's mail got through), I added SPF records that explicitly named each and every mailserver on the machine, just so that everything was clear and aboveboard—but they ended up being about 500 characters long.
Fastforward a week or two... and I was having problems with my DNS zones loading—I'd get errors that they'd timed out. After pulling my hair out for a while, I discovered that TXT records have a limit of 255 characters (including spaces, etc.) Some folks running servers on non-OS X Server machines have split the records over multiple TXT records (does that even work?), but you get exactly one TXT record per OS X Server machine: the Comment box.
I've now simplified the SPF records so that they read something like this:
+v=spf1 a mx mx:cerberus.limbo.jcf.org mx:cerberus.jcf.org mx:jcf.org ip:173.164.140.96/30 ip:207.58.140.213/30 include:comcast.businessclass.net include:comcast.com -all+
To translate:
• +v=spf1 a mx+ It authorizes deliveries from any IP listed in the DNS zone, and from any mailserver defined in the zone
• +mx:cerberus.limbo.jcf.org mx:cerberus.jcf.org mx:jcf.org+ It also explicitly authorizes deliveries from the server's main LAN and internet DNS names as well as the domain of the foundation for which I work (and through which emails are occasionally relayed)
• +ip:173.164.140.96/30 ip:207.58.140.213/30+ Next it authorizes the public static IP blocks for the server and the foundation's remote server
• +include:comcast.businessclass.net include:comcast.com+ Finally it includes the domain names of the ISP through which most of the mail are relayed
• -all The last item says that if the mail didn't originate from one of those addresses, it isn't ours.
(I think that I've got that right. If I've botched it anywhere, let me know, okay?)
That's 169 characters. The DNS zones loaded happily, and the mail seems to be going out without getting bounced. So far so good!
(There's probably a way to get the hostname on each email to match the domain from which it is being addressed, but I haven't gotten there yet.)
Message was edited by: David KudlerMost often, it went out under the hostname of the server, cerberus.limbo.jcf.org—which is useless, since that's a LAN address.
You can control this via the myhostname setting in Postfix. This defines the name it uses to identify itself to remote mail servers, which sounds like it'll address a lot of your issues.
I added SPF records that explicitly named each and every mailserver on the machine, just so that everything was clear and aboveboard—but they ended up being about 500 characters long.
OK, this doesn't make sense. You don't need to list every virtual hostname for every domain.
All you need to do is add this specific mail server's address in each domain.
There's no requirement that the hostname of the mail server matches the domain name, so it's entirely valid to create an SPF record in domain1.com that lists mailserver.someotherdomain.com as authoritative. Then, as long as postfix's myhostname says it's mailserver.someotherdomain.com and your reverse DNS resolves to that address your problem is solved.
...but you get exactly one TXT record per OS X Server machine: the Comment box.
Unless you edit your zone file directly and add whatever other records you like. However, given the above, I don't think the 255-character limit should be an issue.
Even if you didn't want to mess with your zone files directly there's still a way around that - SPF allows for an 'include' record which basically tells remote servers to include the record from some other domain, so for each domain you could just tell it to include some other domain's record (which, in turn, could include another domain) allowing virtually unlimited record length (or, at least, 255 characters per domain you manage).
SPF Includes are covered here.
• include:comcast.businessclass.net include:comcast.com Finally it includes the domain names of the ISP through which most of the mail are relayed
Bzzzz. You've now allowed any other customer of comcastbusiness.net and comcast.com to send mail on your behalf. You probably don't want to do that. When you consider that 'comcast.com' includes every one of their residential customers you can see that you really don't want to do that. -
I have the Jeode EVM on my PDA. I have to execute a code for which I have to list 9 jar files. The entire .ink file is around 400 characters. Could someone please tell me if there is a way to increase the 255 character limit or if I could change the class path to point to there jar files. I tried looking for this in regedit but did not know what command to tweek.
Could someone please help me. I am stuch up here and need help desperately.
ThanksIt is possible to get parameters from file (and setting up classpath by this), when calling evm (in .lnk). Now I can't check what the parameter is (-f ?). It should allow omit the 256 characters limit in .lnk. Try to run evm with parameter which show all options (maybe advanced options). If you couldn't find this, I will check it later and give you detailed information.

Button Destination URI 255 char limit?
While entering the "Destination URI" property on a button,
Jdeveloper is stopping me at character 255.
Has anyone else run into this and found a solution?
TIA
Searched history but did not find anything.
JDev 10.1.3.3.0.3
OAExt 10.1.3Calling a Reports Server or Bi Publisher requires passing all the parameters, along with
what printer to print to and all the other stuff. This easily can exceed 255 characters.
As long as the report I have has only one or two parameters, the approach of using
Destination URI off a button worked great.
( And I'd rather not add redundant VO attributes with cryptic short code names
to fake my way around this! )
In any case, IE supports 2048 character long URLs ( being one of the SMALLEST..
Firefox and others go much bigger ) and the HTTP spec says nothing about any length limit.
Interestingly, prior postings on the forum indicate that elsewhere people are setting
URLs that exceed 255 characters ( in their examples/dumps ) and those work just fine,
on other item types?
I was hoping to avoid more pp methods to do this since the Destination URL works perfectly
for the task... until I hit this (highly questionable ) data entry limit.
Thx. -
Dealing with the 255-field limit
Hello,
In one of my AW DB — a file with which I keep track of my student records, like grades and absences — I have 3 x 60 fields to count the absences, in each of the trimesters and the number of 50-minute class could be close to 60.
The classes fields are labelled: '01', '02', ..., '60'; '2.01', '2.02', ..., '2.60' and '3.01', '3.02', ..., '3.60'.
The value fields of each of those fields are: “ “, “.” and “f”. The default is “.”.
The way for counting the absences of the 1st trimester, using 3 fields, i.e., the number of “f” is:
T1_Faltas1=
COUNT2("f",'01','02','03','04','05','06','07','08','09','10','11','12','13','14' ,'15','16','17','18','19','20','21','22','23','24','25','26','27','28','29','30' )
T1_Faltas2=
COUNT2("f",'31','32','33','34','35','36','37','38','39','40','41','42','43','44' ,'45','46','47','48','49','50', '51','52','53','54','55','56','57','58','59','60')
T1_F=
IF(OR('Situação1'="Regular",'Situação1'="Incluído"),'T1Faltas.1'+'T1Faltas.2',"")
This has been functioning well for some years.
The problem appeared now, because I am going to teach classes to 5th and 6th year of another State School and those grades have 5 Math classes a week — instead of 4 classes. Then, I would need around 15+ classes fields for each trimester.
But the real situation is that I can not create those extra fields because my DB has a limit of 255 fields and I already reached that number of fields.
I can resolve this by using a single class field for a day that has 2 classes, and the options would be: “ “, “..”, “ff”, “.f”, “f.”
Note: the option of a “ ” empty space or a double empty space are for the students that left that group; the options “.f”, “f.” are for students that were in one of the two classes of a day and the option “ff” is for the ones that were absents in both classes of a given day.
The problem would be to count the absences: I know how to do it, using a lot of fields — but the limitation of fields is the big problem — and I am writing you to get a better solution.
If I could create more fields, I would do the following for each of the trimester, say T.1:
1)T1f1=
COUNT2("f",'01','02','03','04','05','06','07','08','09','10','11','12','13','14' ,'15','16','17','18','19','20','21','22','23','24','25','26','27','28','29','30' )
2)T1f2=
COUNT2("f",'31','32','33','34','35','36','37','38','39','40','41','42','43','44' ,'45','46','47','48','49','50', '51','52','53','54','55','56','57','58','59','60')
3)T1.f1=
COUNT2(".f",'01','02','03','04','05','06','07','08','09','10','11','12','13','14 ','15','16','17','18','19','20','21','22','23','24','25','26','27','28','29','30 ')
4)T1.f2=
COUNT2(".f",'31','32','33','34','35','36','37','38','39','40','41','42','43','44 ','45','46','47','48','49','50', '51','52','53','54','55','56','57','58','59','60')
5)T1f.1=
COUNT2("f.",'01','02','03','04','05','06','07','08','09','10','11','12','13','14 ','15','16','17','18','19','20','21','22','23','24','25','26','27','28','29','30 ')
6)T1f.2=
COUNT2("f.",'31','32','33','34','35','36','37','38','39','40','41','42','43','44 ','45','46','47','48','49','50', '51','52','53','54','55','56','57','58','59','60')
7)T1ff1=
COUNT2("ff",'01','02','03','04','05','06','07','08','09','10','11','12','13','14 ','15','16','17','18','19','20','21','22','23','24','25','26','27','28','29','30 ')
8)T1ff2=
COUNT2("ff",'31','32','33','34','35','36','37','38','39','40','41','42','43','44 ','45','46','47','48','49','50', '51','52','53','54','55','56','57','58','59','60')
At each trimester end, the total of absences would be something like this:
9)T1_F=
IF(OR('Situação1'="Regular",'Situação1'="Incluído"),'T1f_1’T1_f_2+T1_.f_1+T1_.f_2+T1_f._1+T1_f._2+2T1_ff_12T1_ff2,"")
So, using 9 fields — instead of 3 — for each trimester, I could do the task.
Maybe I can stay with this solution — depending on how many days that I will have 2 classes — using only one field — but I would like to see if I can come with a solution that counts the absences using less fields, say just counts how many ‘ f ‘ each student has.
Any help will be appreciated,
Jorge Lucas, the guy from Rio Grande do SulYvan The Terrible,
I am not surprised that you were able to write this script for me; it did not completely solve the task but it did an important portion. This is not the first time you wrote a script for me.
Seeing the result, I thought that one could rewrite it the other way around, i.e.: with the fields and the field types of a given DB, one could write a script to build a new AW DB, with those fields. Of course, the first script to get those fields and field types should be deeper to extract the formulas of Calculations Fields and the options for the Value List Fields.
Since I have 180 Value List fields with exactly the same options, it would be very much easier to have those in a SS module, before recreate — or just create — the DB. Besides those, there are a number of calculations fields, that are pretty much alike, with some adaptations. It would be very easy to redesign the DB.
I am not asking you to do this, but I would not doubt that it is possible.
The only thing that would consume time would be designing the layouts, unless one could be able to do this given, at least, the sizes of the fields (imagine that you have the sizes of most of the fields, say 60, inserted in a customized layout, instead of 1 inch width!); this would be really difficult, but here one question is too important, in order to recreate an DB file:
*+Is there a way to import a layout from a DB file to another DB file with the same fields of this very layout?+*
About the origins of AW and FMP: several years ago I pass some time playing at the FMP 3.0; after I saw the version 6.0 and later the version 9.0 — +it looks like some time I will see the FileMaker Pro 12.+
I remember perfectly well that the creation of the fields in the FMP 3.0 was very much similar to ClarisWorks. After, I was able — seeing the templates — to create a relational DB with 6 to 8 files in the FMP 6.0. Of course, like Barry said, the learning curve is steeper.
But I felt at home.
It surprises me that both you, Yvan — on this forum — and Barry — on a direct message — said that they were created by different teams. My guess is that one copied the other.
Thanks for your time!
Best regards,
Jorge Lucas (the guy from Rio Grande do Sul)
P.S.: +if I ever grew up — I am only 55 — I wanna be like you: a terrific expert in building AppleScript scripts.+

SQLLOADER: Large Data Loads: 255 CHAR limit?
Issue: I'm trying to load a delimited text file into an Oracle table
with data that execeeds 255 characters and it's not working correctly.
The table fields are set to VARCHAR2 2000 - 4000. No problem. Some of
the data fields in the file have over 1000 characters. Ok. When running
a load, SQLLOADER seems to only want to handle 255 characters based on
it's use of the CHAR datatype as a defult for delimited file text
fields. Ok. So, I add VARCHAR(2000) in the .ctl file next to the fields
that I want to take larger datasets. That does not seem to work.
When I set a field in the control file to VARCHAR(2000), the data for
that field will get into the table. That's fine but, the issue is
SQLLOADER does not just put just that field's data into the table, but
it puts the remainder of the record into the VARCHAR(2000) field.
SQLLOADER seems to fix the length of the field and forgets I want
delimiters to continue to work.
Anyone know how to get SQLLOADER to handle multiple >255 data fields in
a delimited file load?
jk
Here is my control file:
load data
infile 'BOOK2.csv'
append into table PARTNER_CONTENT_TEMP
fields terminated by ',' optionally enclosed by '^' TRAILING NULLCOLS
(ctlo_id,
partners_id,
content2_byline ,
content2 varchar(4000),
content3 varchar(2000),
content9 varchar(1000),
submitted_by,
pstr_id,
csub_id)
nullI have been sucessful using char instead of varchar. But having
the optionally enclosed by value in the data has always solved
the problem. -
Hi,
We think that there is a problem in the solution: WebLogic 8.1.3 and Linux AS 3.0.
We use Xvfb and configure the DISPLAY env. Some applications in WebLogic can't connect to the Xvfb because the instance have a lot of applicationes, and use a file descriptor for avobe 255 to create the unix socket; and X-Windows system non support this (file descriptor for avobe 255 for X).
IBM have a workarround in his JRE. See:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/javasdk/v5r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.java.doc.diagnostics.50/html/jvmenvirset.html and read the JAVA_HIGH_ZIPFDS env.
Have BEA one solution?The first thing I would recommend is to upgrade to DAQmx Base 1.5 for linux.

MAX_PATH length in windows server 2012 appears to be 255 Characters still
I understand that NTFS has a 32k character limit, however windows API only supports 255 characters.
I was reading that server 2012 was to do away with the 255 character limit and embrace NTFS 32k limit. What I am finding when creating a long path name in windows 2012 RC build 8400 is that I get a warning about long path names at about 255. I am using the
VHD that MS supplied for the consumer.
The path is c:\\<long name>\<long name>\<long name>\. If the <long name> is equal to 245 that is the end of the game. Once "c:\\<long name>\..." equals 255 that is the end of the game.
My linux servers do not have this issue.
How do I go about resolving it?
Thanks,The restriction is lifted in ReFS which is part of the file server roll.

How would you pass more than 255 args?
I have an SFTP program that currently is only passed a single file. I am modifying it so that it will loop though an array of files to simulate an mput command. Originally I was just going to call the program with each file to be transferred as an argument but noticed the 255 argument limit. I am looking at potentially having 1500 - 2000 files to transfer at one time. I am just looking for advice on how this should be designed. One idea that was forwarded to me was to just create a listing of the files on the server and use that list file as my argument. Would this be the best approach for this issue?

I see no reason why you need an argument for every file.I would not necessarily need one for every file. Prior to our needing to use this for multiple files, it was easy enough to pass in one file as an argument. That is my question, how would you try to pass in a long list of files?Let's establish what you are concerned about. The 255 argument limit is on method signatures. From what you're saying here, you're talking about arguments being passed into your application from, say, the shell. Am I right?Correct, please see my clarified post. From what I have tested, the 255 argument limit appears to exist even for arguments passed to main.Ah, but arguments passed to main from the command line are passed into main as a single array of Strings, no matter how many of them there are. I have no idea what the limit on those is, but an array can hold millions of elements. I expect your shell will moan about that many, though.
As I see it, you have a few choices. Unless these files are all in different, arbitrary directories, you can specify a list of directories for your app to search. Or you can pass them all in one at a time, and see how you go. Or you can list them in a text file, pass that to your app and have it work them out. Or write a script that invokes your app multiple times. What you don't need, is a method that takes each file as an argument.Thank you for walking me through this. Would you mind telling me which way you would lean if you were designing this? The files will all be in a single directory on the server and I would not like to invoke the app multiple times as it creates a connection during each invocation. They're all in the single directory. Ok, are all the files in that directory to be transferred? If so, I'd just pass the directory name to the app, and have it iterate over all the files. If it's only to be certain ones, how do you know which ones? Is there some regex or filtering you can do on the command line?
If you are interested, the 255 argument limit for main that I tested was from this article:
[http://www.javaspecialists.eu/archive/Issue059.html|http://www.javaspecialists.eu/archive/Issue059.html]
It does die at 255 using Java 1.5.Like I said, arguments to a method are thus limited. But the args passed to an app are passed to main as one argument - an array. In short, that article is not relevant to your problem. -
UNC Pathnames that exceed 255 Characters
(I manage folders and files only in my company. Another person serves as Sys Admin. It's complicated. Don't ask.)
I seem to have encountered an issue where some users of our shared drives have created directory structures so deep, and used verbose filenames, that they have exceeded the 255 character limit.
As a result, several folders and files have lost association to any owner.
Since no owner exists, I cannot manage these folders & files properly.
I cannot take ownership of them (have tried)
I have tried mapping far deeper in the folder structure to a drive letter in the hopes that would then place these files and folders within 255 characters. (doesn't help)
In the owner column, all I see is blank. At a DOS prompt I see ...
Any suggestion on how to regain control of these files?Hello,
Now that no one is the owner of these folders, system administrator has to log on to the server and set the correct owner to enable these files to be managed.
Thanks.

Hi Everyone,
We have ASA that are running multiple context mode.
Need to know which command i can use to know how many context are running on the ASA?
Regards
MaheshHi,
By default the ASA models have 2 Security Context limit. They can hold 3 Security Context BUT one of them is always "admin" context which is meant for the virtual ASAs management connections.
The above output shown should mean that you have 2 Context configured of which one is "admin" and other is something that you have configured yourself. If I am not mistaken. So even if you had the default Security Context license of 2 you should still have room for one Security Context. This is because the "admin" context isnt counted towards the license limit.
You can confirm the ASAs Security Context license with "show version" command. It should list the maximum amount of Security Context the ASA can support with the current license it has.
Obviously if your ASA is running Single Mode then you can use the "show context count" command.
If the ASA is in Multiple Mode then you should be able to use the command to see how many Security Contexts has been configured.

How many default virtual context counts with ASA 5585 Series
Hi All:
I prepare replace FWSM to ASA 5585 Series,but I confuse the default virtual context counts on ASA 5585.
I used 3 virtual contexts on my old FWSM(1 admin context with 2 contexts).According the ASA configuration guide below.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/asa/asa84/configuration/guide/mode_contexts.html#wp1188797
It state the ASA 5585 have default 2 contexts,Does it state the ASA 5585 just have 2 contexts or 1 admin context plus "2" context (3 contexts available)
thks fot your replyHi,
To my understanding the ASA with the most default lisence lets you use 2 Security Contexts to your own purposes. Admin context will always be there on the ASA when running in multiple context mode. Its created when you change your ASA from its default mode (single) to "mode multiple".
In my original post the latter part was just to mention that to my understanding if you use 2 ASAs (almost any model) in failover with a software 8.3 and above the ASA will combine their lisences regarding some values. For example connecting 2 ASAs in Failover which have limit of 2 Security Contexts, they will get combined and the failover will have 4 Security Context limit.
Atleast that is what I see with the "show version" command and this is also what we have been told by a Cisco employee. Ive also been told that if I for example (running 8.3+ OS) buy a 5 Security Context license for the other unit, It will combine the others base license (2 SC) to the others units new license (5 SC) resulting in the combined Security Context limit of 7.
This is what Cisco documentation mentions about Active/Standby and Active/Active Failover Licensing at version 8.3 and above:
Or you have two ASA 5540 adaptive security appliances, one with 20 contexts and the other with 10 contexts; the combined license allows 30 contexts. For Active/Active failover, for example, one unit can use 18 contexts and the other unit can use 12 contexts, for a total of 30; the combined usage cannot exceed the failover cluster license.
I've have had 2 ASA5585-X ASAs combined in A/A Failover running 8.4(2) and they have atleast showed that they have the combined Security Context limit of 4 Security Contexts
Heres a partial output of the "show version" command on the ASAs in question when they were just out of the box combined in Failover with no other configurations other than running in multiple context mode and management configuration in admin context.

Though I still suggest confirming all these things from the people/company that youre acquiring the ASA(s) from so you get what youre asking for. Or someone from Cisco could confirm this on these forums.
