Latch/Read automation question...

Is there any way to get the automation mode to "snap" back from Latch to Read after you've stopped the playhead (without having to use a key command)? Similar to how you can set the "Write" mode to change in Preferences.
Thanks

I agree that it´s really annoying when I forget to switch back to Read; the risk is pretty big that I start writing automation all over the place.
However, the Key Command ShiftCtrl+CommandR takes less than a second to use! It changes all tracks to Read. Handy, if you remember to use it...

You can set key commands to change ALL tracks to any mode of automation (read, Latch, Touch, etc...)
Sorry atom, doesn't answer your question though...

HP QTP10 cannot read Automation values of Advanced DataGrid

Hi everyone,
We're an Automation functional testing team, testing a flex application with HP QTP v10. So far we've successfully automated many parts of the application. Now, we're struck at a serious issue.
The issue is QTP cannot read automation values specified for an Advanced Datagrid (ADG).
While trying to read row data of the ADG, the automation name of QTP shows like,
"lblData | someGroup | | ** | | | | | | | | | | lblData"
The screenshot of Object Spy while spying ADG is also attached.
Other than the Automation Index, we are not able to populate any automation values of a row data.
The ADG is a custom one. Our development team has customized it in some way, and we dont have access to the code. They are using an External renderer or Custom renderer to render values into the column.
As there is no possiblity for value-based recording, we tried to access the ADG with index-based recording. Then, we 're able to perform operations like Click, but cannot read contents of the row/cell.
We're using:
HP Quick TestProfessional v10.0
Flex plugin 4.5
Internet Explorer 7
Flash Player v10
Our Questions are:
How to get automation values for these custom ADG?
Is there any other possible ways to access the custom ADG components other than these automation values?
Do we need any patches/plugin upgradation to perform this?
Is there any other tools in market that can recognize and access these custom ADGs?
Without these automation values we're unable to proceed further work. Any replies/comments/help are welcome.
Thank you!

A sortCompareFunction would look something like:
Function sortWithNullAtEnd(a:Object, b:Object, field:Array = null):int
    if (a.fieldName == null && b.fieldName == null) return 0;
    if (a.fieldName == null) return 1;
    if (b.fieldName == null) return –1;
    if (a.fieldName < b.fieldName)
        return –1;
    if (a.fieldName > b.fieldName)
        return 1;
    return 0;
Note that this sort would be unstable so you might be better off using a second field to get stability.

Please read my question carefully, this is, I think, a question for the experts. It's not the usual name change question.
When I setup my new MacBook Pro, something slipped by me and my computer was named First-Lasts-MacBook-Pro (using my real first and last name).
I changed the computer name in Preferences/Sharing to a new name and Preferences/Accounts to just be Mike. I can right click on my account name, choose advanced, and see that everything looks right.
However, If I do a scan of my network with my iPhone using the free version of IP Scanner, it lists my computer as First-Lasts-MacBook-Pro! And it lists the user as First-Last.
So even though another Mac just sees my new computer name, and my home folder is Mike, somewhere in the system the original setup with my full name is still stored. And it's available on a network scan. So my full name might show up at a coffee shop.
Can I fully change the name without doing a complete re-install of Lion and all my apps?

One thought... you said the iPhone displayed your computer's old name? I think that you must have used the iPhone with this computer before you changed the name. So no one else's iPhone should display your full name unless that iPhone had previously connected to your Mac. For example, I did this exact same change, and I use the Keynote Remote app to connect with my MacBook Pro. It would no longer link with my MacBook Pro under the old name, and I found that I had to unlink and then create a new link under the new name. So the answer to your question is, there is nothing you need to do on the Mac, but rather the phone, and no other phone will display your full name.

My MacBook Pro is running VERY slowly. After reading other questions and responses, I ran an EtreCheck, but do not know how to post the report here. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've read similar questions and answers, but I am still terrified to upgrade from leopard to snow leopard. The only reason I want to is because I received an iPad which requires an updated system. I have an external hard drive. I have the disks to upgrade

I've read similar questions and have studied the answers, but I am still terrified to upgrade from leopard to snow leopard on my macbook pro. The only reason for doing it is in order to sync my macbook pro with my iPad. I do have an external drive which automatically backs up every hour. BUT.......I am techno-ignorant as well as techno-paranoid. I have the disks to update to snow leopard but knowing doing so may likely change/alter/lose/obliterate my current set-up, it actually makes me feel sick to think of it.
Years ago when updating via Apple Protection Plan tech support, my screen actually went blank, everything gone! The tech told me not to worry, that "we" would be able to restore things, but several hours later I was still looking at a primitive looking screen that wasn't anything like what I had before. His language was too technical, in that there was an assumption I understood things I had zero understanding of. Example: partition my external drive.
Anyway, living hundreds of miles from an Apple service provider, and no Apple techs in my community, I had to wait for a trip to an Apple Store where one of the wonderful guys at the genius bar spent a ton of time getting things back to normal and actually explaining it enough that I had a vague understanding.
So now I am in the predicament again and won't know what to do after installing the new disks and finding a likely mess or absence of documents etc. on my computer. I don't know how to access the external drive, and even if I did I wouldn't know how to move stuff from that to my computer.
Anyone have any suggestions?

I'm in the same boat as you, I've used Mac's since day one and neglected my Windows education and now it has come to haunt me as I have to learn it like a school kid.
Nearly 99% of all businesses and nearly 95% of everyone use Windows, Steve Jobs declared "The desktop wars are over, Microsoft won" a long time ago.
By 2015 tablets are going to be selling to consumers more than traditional computers, your living proof, you got a iPad.
Apple has already discontinued the Xserver, the Xraid, the MacBooks and the 17" Macbook Pro.
Apple has introduced BootCamp in OS X 10.6 and up, this allows a partition and drivers so one can install Windows on a Mac.
https://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
Why do you think they named it "BootCamp"
You can't run a older OS X version longterm like you have with 10.5 anymore, Mac's are being targeted for attacks and older OS X versions are dropped for security updates.
In fact your Mac might still be part of the 750,000 Mac strong Flashback botnet or infected.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trojan_BackDoor.Flashback
http://arstechnica.com/apple/2012/04/how-to-check-forand-get-rid-ofa-mac-flashba ck-infection/
See here, Apple has no security updates for 10.5 users and soon 10.6 is going to be ignored next.
https://support.apple.com/kb/ht1222
1-1.5 years is the OS X upgrade cycle. Change everytime like it or not.
So I'm thinking about your long term future and how you obviously don't like change, need local assistance like it appears you first claimed.
So buy a new Mac and upgrade your OS X version whenever Apple shows it in AppStore.
When your machine can no longer upgrade to the newest OS X version, then you've got about another 2 more years of security updates before you have to buy a new machine or risk running a insecure one.
Learn here how to go about fixing your own machine and creating backups/bootable clones this way your not having to drive several hundred miles for a software or boot drive repair. Simply reverse clone your troubles away.
Most commonly used backup methods
https://discussions.apple.com/community/notebooks/macbook_pro?view=documents
I'm of the maturity and experience that I know a Mac isn't always the best solution for everyone and even Apple doesn't provide the proper hardware, support or features for everyone. Why only store locations in high traffic ritzy areas?
Our SteveJobs fan here is under 18 years old with good eyes, he's not older like we are with bad or failing eyesight.
The new Mac's have hard to see glossy screens and the type/UI can't be scaled up easily to accomadate our older eyes, however a Windows 7 machine does allow up to 150% scale of the UI, type etc., and also there are anti-glare screen PC's and just about no more anti-glare screen Mac's.
I wrote this User tip in case you have trouble seeing the screen, at least you can scale the web browsing up
Web browsing for hard of seeing users
Apple might still be selling the anti-glare 15" non-retina on their online store, it's the "high resolution/anti-glare model"
But I can get a 17" 1080i HD anti-glare Windows 7 laptop at Sager for a lot more performance and screen size for the price than a Mac.
https://www.sagernotebook.com/index.php?page=category_browse&selected_cat=2
Screen size is important as the UI and text can be scaled up for easier reading.
Of course you do now have the option of having Windows pre-installed alongside OS X to begin your transition to the dark side.
Just call and they will accomondate, hold the option/alt key at boot time to swtich operating systems.

Windows 7 looks just as good as OS X, the secret is having a good monitor with most PC's come with don't.
Good Luck and I hope I've given you a lot to think about.

Automation Question: How do I work with an open 'upload file' dialog?

Preamble:
Was a very experienced VBS automation guy, this is my first emersion into the wonderful world of C# automation. Using Selenium WebDiver, I have successfully logged into a web page, filled out a few web forms, clicked on the 'add image' button and am
now faced with an open 'upload file' dialog. Pretty sure the namespace I need is system.windows.forms.OpenFileDialog so added the reference to my project.
Question:
All the examples on the web seem to relate to app development and not test automation. But, I need to automate this web application and all that's left is the image upload. What do I do when faced with an
already opened 'upload file' dialog? I know the image and path, how do I automate the process of placing the full path into the dialog and clicking the OK button or alternately, enter key?
Thank you!

I doubt that you need System.Windows.Forms.OpenFileDialog, the browser isn't written using WinForms and that dialog is a Win32 native dialog.
Maybe you should post this in the Selenium Users
group? It has little to do with C#, it's more about how Selenium interacts with the browser.

Java.nio read/write question

Hello,
I just started to learn the java.nio package so I decided to make a simple Echo server. I made a client which reads a line from the keyboard, sends it to the server and the server returns it. It all works except one little detail. Here's little code from the server:
                             int n = client.read(buffer);
                             if ( n > 0)
                                 buffer.flip();
                                 client.write(buffer);
                                 Charset charset = Charset.forName("ISO-8859-1");
                                 CharsetDecoder decoder = charset.newDecoder();
                                 charBuffer = decoder.decode(buffer);
                                 System.out.println(charBuffer.toString());
                                 buffer.clear();
                              }So that works, I send the data and then I receive it back. But only for the client. I also wanted the server to print the line which is the reason for the charset and the decoder. The above code however prints only a blank line. Thus I tried this:
                             int n = client.read(buffer);
                             if ( n > 0)
                                 buffer.flip();
                                 Charset charset = Charset.forName("ISO-8859-1");
                                 CharsetDecoder decoder = charset.newDecoder();
                                 charBuffer = decoder.decode(buffer);
                                 System.out.println(charBuffer.toString());
                                 client.write(buffer);
                                 buffer.clear();
                              }Or in other words I just moved the write() part downwards. So far so good, now the server was actually printing the lines that the client was sending but nothing was sent back to the client.
The question is how to make both, the send back line and the print line on the server side to work as intended. Also a little explanation why the events described above are happening is going to be more than welcome :)
Thanks in advance!

Adcfgclone automation question

R12.1.3 running on RH Linux 5.8.
I have my rapid clone configuration almost automated but I run into a problem when running adcfgclone on the appsTier.
I can pass in the apps password but I don't want it to start the services when done so is there a way to pass "N' to adcfgclone.pl while also passing in the apps password?
Example I use now is as shown below but it then sits waiting for Y/N to startup services:
echo ${appspwd} | perl adcfgclone.pl appsTier $CONTEXT_FILE

I believe I have what I need now via 'expect'.
I was assisted by this post http://mohamedelazab.blogspot.ca/2013/07/nice-notes-for-automating-cloning-11i.html
And for anybody else who stumbles on this thread here is what I run now.
When it comes to the adcfgclone step in my bash script I have:
/usr/bin/expect adcfgclone.exp >$LOG_FILE_HOME/adcfgclone.log
Where the contents of the file are:
================================================================================
#!/usr/bin/expect -f
set force_conservative 0 ;# set to 1 to force conservative mode even if
                          ;# script wasn't run conservatively originally
if {$force_conservative} {
        set send_slow {1 .1}
        proc send {ignore arg} {
                sleep .1
                exp_send -s -- $arg
set timeout -1
spawn perl adcfgclone.pl appsTier /app/oracle/ebsxxx/inst/apps/EBSXXX_yyy/appl/admin/EBSXXX_yyy.xml
match_max 100000
expect -exact "\r
Enter the APPS password : "
send -- "myappspwd\r"
expect -exact "\r
Do you want to startup the Application Services for EBSXXX? (y/n) \[y\] : "
send -- "n\r"
expect eof
==================================================================================
Then I run adautocfg and finally adstrtal.
I hope this post is not premature as I have yet to tun the whole thing together and via cron but on the cmd line works.

Html automation question

I have a bunch of images on a server, and want to create a webpage where they are all available as thumbnails and ca be downloaded. I know how to do this in HTML, but I was wondering if there's an automated way to create such an html-page. It's really tedious to go through hundreds of images manually... Thanks in advance.

Thanks a lot! That seems to do the trick. It's the first one I tried that I can actually run. The installation was kinda weird though. I'm not good with the whole sed-awk thing so I couldn't write a proper PKGBUILD for it...

More Automation questions.....

Ok guys,
My "Quick Access Automation" controller just stopped working ...out of the blue?????!!!!!!
So I have set up my mod-wheel to be my quick-access controller.......So whatever automation is showing, will be controlled by mod-wheel......
I have a key-command set up to toggle my mod-wheel between being a normal midi-modwheel and my quick access controller....
quick access is broke...
funny thing is when I go to re-learn it under automation-settings ....it says learned.
Don't get it...
please help
SvK

sorry mate i as much in the dark as you are. all i can do is suggest ways of chasing it down if it were me.
last resort first - save your prefs to the desktop then initalize your key commands. see if you can get it to learn then.
but first - restart computer and create a fresh song. even restart the controller.
next, i'd put up a monitor and check that the mod wheel info is right (midi channel 1 or something).
then i'd probably starting yelling...

Fine automation question

Hello everybody
I'm in some trouble trying to set an automation parameter.
I need to shift a frequency parameter from a 60Hz value to exact 233 Hz, to get an accurate sweep, but the automation curve snaps automatically from 231 to 244.
It has always happened with volume parameter but I did't care because I never needed to be so precise before.
Is there any preference I have to set to allow this kind of accurate value setting?
I searched for similar posts but i didn't find any.
Does anyone know how to manage this thing?
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you very much.
Simon

How do i read a question in javacc and be able to identify key tokens

hello everyone....
I need help. I am still new with javacc, i am trying to generate a parser that will accept a question and be able to recognise the keywords and the askword from the question. e.g a question like "what is HIV" . it is suppose to get "what" as the askword and "HIV" as the key
another example: "what are arv drug" "what" as the askword and "arv drug" as the key
below is the code for what i have done so far.... thanx in advance
Code:
PARSER_BEGIN(SMS_QUERY)
import java.io.StringReader;
public class SMS_QUERY {
public static void main(String args[]) throws ParseException{
SMS_QUESTION q = new SMS_QUESTION(System.in);
q.QUESTION();
System.out.println(q);
PARSER_END(SMS_QUERY)
SKIP :
| "\t"
| "\n"
| "\r"
void SMS_QUESTION() : {}
(NounPhrase())+ | AskWord() | AskWord() (NounPhrase())+ | <EOF>
void AskWord() : {}
Awhat()
void Awhat() : {}
"what" | "wht" | "wt" | "wyt" | "vat" | "wat"
void NounPhrase() : {}
key()
void key() : {}
q1key() | q2key() | q3key()
void q1key() : {}
"Arv" | "Arv Drugs" | "Arv drgs" | "Arv drgh"
void q2key() : {}
"HIV" | "Hi virus"
}
