Making creator apps container - independent

Hi,
I'm in the process of porting my app to run on Tomcat 5.5.9.
I'm having a problem setting up the DataSource. I've read a few posts hinting that Creator generates the database code to use "Data Direct" driver classes and that these are not free. Does anybody know the truth behind this?
Has anybody moved a database-heavy creator app to an appserver other than SunOne8?
At the minute I cannot even find which .jar com.sun.sql.datasource.DriverAdapter lives in. Does anyone know?
WHY IS THERE NO TUTORIAL ON PORTING CREATOR APPS TO OTHER CONTAINERS? (seeing as they don't run as-is).

Hi John,
Sorry but I don't know wnything about the inet drivers- if they work, that would be fabulous - please do pass that info back on the forum. Yes I have heard the Data Direct drivers are expensive... people also talk about things they have found on http://sourceforge.net/index.php (like the jTDS drivers) but I don't recall anything oracle specific.
A good test is to deploy an application with an editable datatable on it... this is the most complicated component that needs the metadata the most. Verify you can change the data in a row and commit it.
Please be SURE to find out if the oracle 10G driver supports metadata (and parameter metadata, specifically).... my understanding last time I checked is that it does not...
An additional complication with the standards is that the certification suite doesn't necessarily test everything in the spec.... so a vendor can "pass the certification" but still not fully implement to the spec.... I think this is the issue w/meta data. I asked if we could get this added into the spec's test suite, but apparently many vendors on the committee wouldn't support this (because of course that could mean additional work for them to pass the test....). So I guess what I'm saying is I think Oracle may pass the test and claim compliance but still not fully implement the spec - so please double check :(
I understand your concern about using MySql if your standard is oracle - while I know we have tested the mysql solution and it works adequately with Creator , I do not know how it compares w/Oracle. You might want to ask around on that a bit... we don't get any kickbacks from them either ;)
If you do decide to move to mysql, you will want to make sure your create table scripts etc use the same schema name and datatypes as in oracle to minimize the pain of switching... we should talk more about that if you choose that option. I think mysql might be case sensitive whereas oracle's default is not case sensitive... things like that can also come up.
You do have one other option to add to your list.... use one of the servers which comes with the data direct licenses... although I'm not sure if that would be more difficult for you to sell than the mysql configuration.... but at least that would still be j2ee/oracle....
hth,
Val

[SOLVED] Having trouble making QT apps use GTK theme

Hello everyone, I'm having trouble making QT apps use my GTK theme in openbox.
Some apps seem to work just fine but others don't.
^Such as above, as you can see VLC is working, as is qtconfig, but k9copy and k3b are not.
I've did the suggestions that are listed in the wiki. (http://tinyurl.com/ybhb7yr)
And even rebooted after I did them, still no go.
My .gtkrc-2.0 file simply contains:
gtk-theme-name="Clearlooks_blackblue"
gtk-icon-theme-name="Tango"
Does anyone have any ideas why it's not working with k9copy and k3b/how to fix it?
Thanks.

Yes, but don't they use QT?
And if not, what do they use? lol. And is there anyway to make them use my GTK theme?

I am trying to find an app or software to burn iMovie slideshow to a dvd. I have a MacBook Pro with Mavericks. There are a lot of DVD Creator apps a the App store. Looking for a recommendation of what to use and tips.

I am trying to find an app or software to burn iMovie 11 slideshow to a dvd. I have a MacBook Pro with Mavericks. There are a lot of DVD Creator apps at the App store. Looking for a recommendation of what to use and tips. Thank you.

I've been using "Burn" for years and it has been the only DVD burning software I have ever used for the mac. I have never needed to look at other apps. Unless you want something that has more bells and whistles such as Roxio's "Toast" : http://www.roxio.com/enu/products/toast/pro/overview.html
There are thousands of quality free apps out there for the mac that are not part of the App Store. All you have to do is read reviews online, do a little search, the Apple forums are full of recommendations from experienced users that have been here for years...

I need a good DVD creator app for Mac

I have been researching DVD creator apps in the App Store and I am really not finding anything good. A large majority (80%+) have poor reviews and the others either have no reviews or the positive reviews are very suspect like the creators friends and family wrote them. I mostly need this as I work on iMovie projects and would like to share them with people who don't do You Tube or prefer to watch movies/video on their DVD player. I guess I missed out when Apple offered iDVD as standard software. If I see a trend of replies mentioning the same app I will check it out. I don't mind paying for it, I just want it to work.

I've requested this post be relocated to an appropriate Mac forum, rather than the iPhone Accessories forum.

What kind of programming background do you need to start making iOS apps?

I have zero knowledge of programming. I have done programming about 7 years ago and it was extremely basic stuff and mostly to do with C. I have learnt BASIC language (wonder if its even worth mentioning) in school!! But, I really want to program. Even if it takes a long time. How do I get started??

Your question "What kind of programming background do you need to start making iOS apps?" does not have a single answer. Thanks to the internet, nowadays its possible to start from zero. You can find an answer for even the most basic question on the internet. It just a question of time and effort. If you have
the time
no pressing deadline and a
high frustration tolerance
just go ahead and do it.

How to stop the Sony Movie Creator app

Hi, the Sony Movie Creator app on my Xperia keeps automatically creating movies and I personally find it creepy that all my personal photos and videos are being uploaded. Any way to stop this from happening?
Thanks.

@Nasheer
They are not being uploaded, the app creates this videos and you decide if you want to save them on your phone or delete them, or you can just uninstall the app.

Using library images when making phone apps in AIR

Gidday guys
A lot of the tutorials I'm getting through practice embedding their images when making phone apps, and put these images in their assets folder.
I'm wondering - is it not OK to simply use images as symbols from your Flash Pro library?
I'm not refering to splashscreens or icons - rather images that make up the app's functionality.
I thought it may be something to do with supplying multiple images for different screen res', but I'm planning on designing at 640x960, and using...
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.SHOW_ALL;
...to take care of different resolutions.
Thanks for your help.

Yes - I do this with my desktop AIR app.
What I'm wondering though is it OK to do this for phone apps, or is there some advantage to emedding the images and putting them in your project's assets folder? eg phones being able to cache images from assets, but not if the images are built into the swf.

This needs to be asked at http://developer.apple.com/

If i am making an app, and copy something from a site that may is copyrighted and make money on it will that be illigal ?

Just like 10 best jokes etc.

That would be a copyright violation.
If Apple requests it, you have to be able to show documentation that shows you have the right to use the content in your app.

New DVD Creator App and OSX 10.9.1

Does New DVD Creator App works with OSX 10.9.1 ? as i am exercicing problem burning DVD with it after insattling Maverick? This is an app that allows you to burn a DVD.
Any suggestion please or any better DVD Creator app you can suugest from a reputable supplier please? Thanks

The developer is responsible for providing support.
Apple supports only its own applications.
You can try asking Apple for a refund.
The worst thing that can happen is they will say no.
But they have been know to give refunds so give it a shot.
Good luck.

TS1702 problems making in app purchases

I have had continual issues making in-app purchases. The problem will get fixed then it will not work a couple days later. It's very aggravating. I'm totally frustrated with Apple.

What happens when you try to buy them, does the 'buy' button not work, do you get any error messages ... ?
If you are getting a message to contact iTunes Support then you can do so via this link and ask them for help (we are fellow users on here, we won't know why the message is appearing) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption . If it keeps appearing and you keep having to contact iTunes Support then include that when you contact them and see if they can do anything to stop it recurring.
If it's a different problem ... ?

Does the IHandy flashlight app contain malware? ? If so what are the removal steps to insure the malware is removed??

Does the anyone know if the IHandy flashlight app contain malware?? If so what are the removal steps to insure the malware is removed??

There is no malware that can affect an iPhone unless it's been jailbroken.
Some apps request to do things, like access your location or contacts, and can continue to do so in the background. If this app requested permission for either of these things, you should delete it. A flashlight app has no need for such information.
