ModelReference value used as a key with output_text

I think that it would be good to enable the use of the modelReference value as a key with output_text, through an additional attribute.
Example : instead of corresponding to the actual description of a product, the modelReference value would be the key to the locale-sensitive description.
Wouldn't it be necessary to support this scenario ?
Thanks in advance.

This can be done through the renderer. If you have a convention for naming resource keys, the renderer can recognize the value is a key and look it up in a resource ...

HT5633 use of fn key with Apple Wireless Keyboard MC184LL/B

Are the rules for using the fn key with the most recent
Apple Wireless Keyboard MC184LL/B posted anywhere on Apple's site? Thanks.

Unfortunately i don't have a solution to your issue, but I thought I would mention the same issue with the new keyboard (MC184LL/B) and the iPad 2 running ios 4.3.5. None of the function keys work as they should.
I recently received the older model (MC184LL/A) from FutureShop (Canada's sister to Best Buy) and everything works fine. Perhaps you should seek out and buy the older model before they are phased out.
My only concern in saying this is I hope the update to ios 5 does not cause the older model keyboard to suddenly lose function key performance. Similarly, I'm not sure the older model keyboard will work if you upgrade to Lion.
I called Apple support about this issue and they found some info on the same iPad forums I have read, but they had no inside scoop on whether the issue was going to be addressed in further ios (or Mac OS) updates.
If you want to keep your new keyboard, you might just have to wait and see if the issue is resolved.

How to use the bootp_enabled key with dscl command create

During Netboot service configuration I wanted to do it right and followed the suggestions in "System Imaging and Software Update Administration" (page 22):
+"To prevent the NetBoot BootP server from responding to+
+requests for IP addresses, use the dscl command-line tool to open the local folder on the NetBoot server and add a key named bootp_enabled with no value to the /config/dhcp/ folder."+
so I first tried to read the local directory:
xadmin$ *sudo dscl . -read /config/dhcp/*
AppleMetaNodeLocation: /Local/Default
RecordName: dhcp
RecordType: dsRecTypeNative:config
and then to create the key:
xadmin$ *sudo dscl . -create /config/dhcp/ bootp_enabled*
* Uncaught Exception: <NSInvalidArgumentException> ([DSoDataNode initWithDir:value:] value is not a valid NSString nor NSData)
but did not succeed. Somthing must be wrong with the syntax. Tried several (Config, dhcp noslash, bootp_enabled:) but nothing helped.
You dscl experts - please enlighten me!
Btw. Apple why not include to correkt syntax in a manual?

worked for me, too
Thanks a lot,

How do I restore my bookmarks and favorites from the Firefox servers using my recovery key with a new hard drive?

I set up Firefox sync before getting a new hard drive. My understanding is that my favs and bookmarks would be stored on Firefox servers and could be synced to any of my devices.
However, now that I'm trying to restore to my new hard drive, it appears that I was supposed to sync previously with another device. I do not remember that explanation previously. I thought that my data was in the cloud and could be pulled at any time.
I have my recovery key. Can you help me?

I don't use Firefox sync, but my assumption was the same as yours. Have you tried the steps in the last part of this article?

Do you still have access to your old hard drive, or a backup of your old hard drive? You often can retrieve your bookmarks, saved passwords, settings, add-ons, and so forth from that. If you have access, a volunteer here can describe the process in more detail.

Using old connection keys with CS4

I work for a web development company. Some of our clients use
Contribute for content management. In the office, we use Contribute
CS3 to create keys to send to the users. We had a user report that
no connection was created when they used a key we made in CS3. The
user just got Contribute, so I assume she purchased CS4. I looked
online and sent a support request to Adobe, but wondered if any of
you fine people have seen or heard anything like this. We don't
have CS4 yet, so I can't test this in house. I could download the
demo, but that's more work than I want to do, lol!
Thanks!

Unless the users can publish by themselves, you will have
issues when CS4 users submit drafts to CS3 admins.
Better upgrade soon.

Can I use multiple values for a rollup key on the same Endeca record?

We have a business need to to aggregate our records using different criteria, based on user navigation. We are thinking of using a rollup key with multiple values to help with the aggregation, but we are running into some issues.
Here is a made-up xample of what we want to do: assume we have a group of products and these products can be organized into groups using parent-child relationships. We would like to create an aggregate record for each parent, and we want the aggregate record for each parent to include all the children for the parent. To achieve this, we use a field called "parent_rec_spec" that holds the parent record spec and we set the same value on the field for the parent and its children. When we do rollup using the parent_rec_spec as the rollup key, we are able to see one aggregate record for each parent (with its children).
The previous setup worked perfectly for us so far. But now we are getting a business requirement that allows children nodes to be linked to multiple parents at the same time. We were hoping of using another dimension to limit the records based on user roles/characteristics , so that only applicable parents/children are displayed (for example, we can use "market" as an additional filtering property, and we decide to show all parents/children for "North America", while hiding the parents/children for other markets).
This caused an odd behavior when children are linked to multiple parents. For example, assume that SKUs A and B were linked to parents in "North America" and "Europe" at the same time, and assume that the user chose the "North America" market. The navigation state would eliminate the parents/children that are no in North America, and will also cause the parents/children that are labeled for North America to show up and be aggregated correctly. This however will lead to the creation of additional aggregate records for the A and B using the parent_rec_spec values that would have linked them to the Europe parents (even though the parents are hidden away).
Here is an example index file that we used to load the test data:
Update||1
Market||North America
Record Type||Product
Name||Parent 1
rec_spec||P1
parent_rec_spec||P1
EOR
Update||1
Market||Europe
Record Type||Product
Name||Parent 2
rec_spec||P2
parent_rec_spec||P2
EOR
Update||1
Market||North America
Record Type||Product
Name||Child A
rec_spec||A
parent_rec_spec||P1
EOR
Update||1
Market||North America
Market||Europe
Record Type||Product
Name||Child B
rec_spec||B
parent_rec_spec||P1
parent_rec_spec||P2
EOR
Update||1
Market||North America
Market||Europe
Record Type||Product
Name||Child C
rec_spec||C
parent_rec_spec||P1
parent_rec_spec||P2
EOR
Update||1
Market||Europe
Record Type||Product
Name||Child D
rec_spec||D
parent_rec_spec||P2
EOR
In this setup, we have parent P1 marked for North America with children A, B and C, and parent P2 marked for Europe with B, C and D as children. When we use North America as a filter in the navigation state, and parent_rec_spec as the rollup key, then we will see an aggregate record for P1, A, B and C. But we will also see an aggregate record for B and C by itself (presumably because of the other parent_rec_spec value on these records).
The actual data that we are testing with is more complicated, but the end result is similar. We also noticed that the additional aggregate records would not be created always, depending on the ordering of the records.
The question that I need help with is this: is there a way to fine tune the rollup logic so that it can only include certain records (in the example above, we can change the rec_spec from PA and PB to PA_North_America and PB_Europe and then we would be interested in rolling up using values that end with NorthAmerica).
By the way, we considered using separate rollup keys for each context (like parent_rec_spec_north_america and parent_rec_spec_europe), but the number of contexts is dynamic, and might grow large. So it is not easy for us to create the additional properties on the fly, and we are concerned about the possible large number of dimensions.

How to use the windows key (super or hiper) as a keystroke modifier?

I can associate the windows key (KeyEvent.VK_WINDOWS) as a regular key on a KeyStroke without problem.
It can be alone or with a modifier, like CTRL+WIN
KeyStroke.getKeyStroke( KeyEvent.VK_WINDOWS, InputEvent.CTRL_DOWN_MASK )My doubt is: Is there a way to use it as a modifier?
In other words, is it possible to create the KeyStroke using the windows key with any other? e.g. "WIN+K"
Thanks,
Henrique Abreu

Thanks a lot for the quick answer.
Your KeyboardCommands class doesn't do it (but gives the idea), because it can only trigger an action on one key (like KeyStroke, that handles key+modifier).
I could make big changes on it to add the functionality of triggering an event on a combination of keys, which would solve my problem.
Although this solution is not so good because we totally give up of actions in Swing, which I mean stuff like actionMaps, InputMaps WHEN_ANCESTOR_OF_FOCUSED_COMPONENT, etc.
If KeyStroke class really doesn't provide this (unbelievable!), I wonder if there is a way to extend and enhance it? (or AWTKeyStroke)
Can anyone say if its possible, before I go deep and find out that it isn't?
Another secondary question (that I think doesn't worth a new topic), what's the META_DOWN_MASK or META_MASK? or where is this key?

Given that I'll use a natural key, how do I deal with the situation if I find out the value later?

I have been doing a lot of reading about the pros and cons of using natural versus surrogate keys. I have read in Joe Celko's books and his writing online that he strongly opposes using surrogate keys and using IDENTITY for generating values for a
surrogate key column of a table in SQL Server. I would like some advice on how to handle this situation: I have a table with physician information and would like to use their NPI as a natural key (it would be a foreign key in many other tables)
but the people who enter new physicians often don't know the NPI until later. They also may receive the wrong NPI and need to change it later.
Right now they use Excel spreadsheets to manage their data and I'm sure you can understand what a nightmare of data integrity that is. Now that I'm going to design and build a database for them, can you recommend a good approach to this specific problem?
I cannot tell them to hold on to the new physician's data until they get the NPI because they need to immediately work with the physician's information as soon as the new physician joins the organization. It's a small shop and not a health system
but thousands of physicians join. They cannot insist that the NPI be supplied at the time of registration for various political reasons. The people who are using the system now have varying degrees of skepticism to outright vehement opposition
to having a new database system so I cannot "lay down the law" about things that may adversely affect the relationship with the new physicians who sign up. With the Excel spreadsheets they cope with this by either leaving it blank, entering
9999999 or some other stray string of characters, or perhaps typing in their shopping list.
Is there a viable solution to this design problem? Any and all suggestions appreciated. Thanks for reading this.

While I disagree with the standard practice of adding an identity column as the primary key for every table, I think that this is a case where it can be beneficial or practical. You might not want to cluster on the identity column and you still need
to enforce the uniqueness of the natural key.
OTOH, the alternative is to simply fabricate a value for the natural key when it is unknown. You could do this manually (where the user must enter the fabricated value) or automatically (where the server generates it). A manual approach might
be frustrating to the users since they have to "guess" what would be unique and acceptable, resulting in sort of trial-and-error approach to adding. You would also very likely need to have a way of identifying which rows had a fabricated value. Once
the actual natural key has been identified for a given provider you would then need to update it. The server can handle cascading the value where needed if you so choose. Note that, except for the cascading part, you need the same capabilities
for an identity-based table since this natural key is most likely essential to the system.
I'll also point out that you can use a unique constraint as the target of a foreign key - you don't have to use the primary key. Not recommending this, just mentioning the alternative.
Which you should choose I can't say - that requires a much better understanding of your model and that isn't something that can be readily provided in a forum such as this. I will say that you should not prematurely choose an identity. Why? First,
you make this choice once you have deemed the natural key to be a problem. Second, it may be (at least) some of your anticipated relationships to physician are actually to something else. A medical system is as much art as science - at least in
the USA. Providers, plans, participants, terms, renewals, diagnosis codes, etc. make one's head spin. Given that you have just started modeling, there is no reason at this point to make this choice - just be aware that the natural key poses some
issues that you need to address at some point before completion. Personally I would choose the natural key for now and let the model develop and demonstrate where this choice becomes a problem.

Error with Links if using x3 primary keys

Hi Folks:
Here is the error code I'm receiving:
ORA-01422: exact fetch returns more than requested number of rows
Unable to fetch row.
Background: I am using Application Express 3.2
All of the pages I have created that rely on x2 primary keys (first_name, last_name) work fine.
I have a table that has x3 primary keys: Table is called "time_off_awards". The x3 primary keys are: last_name, first_name, approval_date.
I created a report that works properly and lists the awards for each person (each person can receive more than one award-on different dates).
I also created an edit link that works properly IF *(only if)* each individual has only one award. If the individual has more than one award then I get the error above. When I set up the link I used all three keys. The x3 PK's should uniquely identify each row, but if the same last name/first name appear more than once (that is if the person has more than one award) I get the error. I thought at first maybe it was just not reading the 3rd key/part of the link (approval_date), but it shows properly if you move your cursor over the edit link.
Here is a link to a screen pic of how I have my link set in Apex:
[http://www.wczone.com/link_settings.gif]
Here is a link to a pic of the report with some info:

Thank you everyone for the help and information you gave to me.
Your ideas and advice helped me to think through the issues involved.
The way i actually found to work around this issue was a little different.
What I did was the following (which may only be usable with empty tables. If its possible to create a new column with a sequence and trigger on a table that already contains data it should work also):
1. I removed the current PK's that were currently set.
2. I added a single, unique PK (that used a sequence and trigger to automatically increment) to the table as was suggested in this thread and other APEX forum threads.
3. I changed the link on the report so that it used the new PK, and also changed the PK used on the forms (under Processes - both the page rendering and page processing processes).
The Difference:
4. Next I changed the table (not by using APEX, but directly) from using the automatically generated ID as the PK, back to using the compound PK (x3 keys). I then added an constraint to make sure that the automatically generated column was unique. So now I have the compound PK that my supervisor wants us to use, and I'm able to use a unique, automatically generated key for APEX to use.
I found also that if you already have a column that uses a unique/auto-generated key you can still use it with APEX without switching keys around.
1. I added the new column to the sql in the reports source section so that the new column was searched (and then used 'hidden' so it wouldn't be displayed on the report users would see).
2. You can still add the unique key under the processes on the form that is being linked too under the Primary key tabs. If its not a PK it won't show up in the pop up which is to the right of "Item Containing Primary Key Column Value" but it can be entered manually (i.e. p23_AUTO_ID) and it will work fine. You would also need to edit your form so that the auto ID that is being passed from the report is part of the form - but hidden if desired).

Apex 3.2, How to use an onchange event with Popup Key LOV - it ignores me.

Hoping there is a simple solution to this.
Using Apex 3.2 with a simple form with a few fields. When the user selects a value from a Popup Key LOV, I want to fire a javascript onchange event and alter another field on the form.
Seems simple enough, except that I can't figure out how to make the PopUp respond to onchange events. The default template seems to ignore javascript entered into the attribute fields that work in other form fields. I know this is simple do to for a select list - it works as expected there. A select list is not a good option because of the huge number of possible returned values.
Even tried a different approach...to register the onchange event using the "addLoadEvent" with this code (this also does not work):
function setThisUp() {
var x = document.getElementById('P105_CTR_ID');
x.onClick = popupLovChanged;
function popupLovChanged() {
alert('OMG IT WORKS!');
addLoadEvent(setThisUp);
If any of you have some advice on how to make onchange work, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
-Rich

For those still looking for a solution.
I found that you can overwrite the default javascript function passback(x) in the popup lov's template, just add your function in the After Field Text field of the template
e.g.
<script> function passBack(x) {
opener.document.getElementById('P2_PROGRAMME').value = x;
opener.document.getElementById('P2_PROGRAMME').focus();
close();
} </script>
this is going to populate the 'P2_PROGRAMME' field with selected value, and focus on it.
in your case, just add the codes you want to run into the passback function.
hope this helps

Default form value using sql with bind variable

I wish to create a form based upon a table with a foreign key. I wish to add a field to the form that is an uneditable text field with a default value using sql of 'select name from other_table where other_table_id = ?' where ? is a bind variable defined by a hidden field which is the value of the foreign key identified at runtime. How can this be done?
null

I don't think that will work. I have multiple people accessing the Portal at the same time with the same login (or lack of as public will be the most common user). I could set it easily enough as the value is passed to the form by a link object, so I could add it to the before page plsql block and set the value. But I am uncertain how it will behave in a multi-user mutlitasking environment.
Maybe I should describe what I am looking to accomplish. I want to create a display above a form that will list static details from other tables (i.e. when editing a user's phone number, which is in one table, you want the user to see the person's name, which is in another table, and the form is based upon the phone table) ...
Just as I am thinking about it, I thought of an idea. I could put some specific code in the before displaying page plsql section to query the database and use htp to output the information for data not in the table the form is based upon. I will try this and see how it works. It would have been nice to have just created a field that is not editable and had a default value, but this should work as well.
Let me know if you see any problem with this or if you have any better suggestions.
Thanks for the fast response.

Struts - example of iterate using a hashtable (key,value)

I am trying to create a dynamic menu system and each menu group
is storied within a single hashmap with the name of the menu as the key (e.g. "mainmenu", "adminmenu"). I am having problems understanding the documentation on how to pass the key to select the
right entry within the hashmap. I have read the following but find
it confusing. Could someone provide a detailed example?
http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/struts-logic.html#iterate

Here's some code to show you what I am doing.
I will start out with how I am creating the List and the HashMap
    menuList = new ArrayList();
    sqlStatement = "select * from menu where admin = 'Y' ";
    // gets the menu items from the database and builds the menuList
    this.buildMenu( (DBResultSet)db.executeSQL( sqlStatement, args ) );
    // puts the menuList into a HashMap with a key of adminmenu
    // NOTE: the menuList is actually a collection (list) of beans
    menuMap.setItem ("adminmenu", menuList );
    ...Here's my bean that stores I use to store the HashMap (menuMap).
import java.util.*;
public class MenuBO extends BaseBusinessObject
private HashMap menuMap;
public MenuBO()
    menuMap = new HashMap();
public void setItem ( String menuType, List menuList )
    menuMap.put ( menuType, menuList);
public List getItem( String menuType )
    return (List)this.menuMap.get( menuType ) ;
public HashMap getMenuMap ()
    return menuMap;
public void removeItem ( String menuType)
    menuMap.remove( menuType);
}And here's my iterate which is not working. I want to single out the value that has a key of "adminmenu" and process that list of menu elements. This is easy to do with scriptlets but I am spending many hours trying to figure out Struts documentation - they need some real world examples if they want Struts to catch on...
<jsp:useBean id="menuMap" scope="session"
          class="com.benchdogs.webapp.beans.MenuBO"/>
        <logic:iterate id="mapEntry" name="menuMap" property="menuMap">
            <bean:write name="mapEntry" property="key"/>
        </logic:iterate>This example loops through the hashmap and displays the keys. I want to be able to process a specific value based on the key. The value is a List so I would need to do another iterate statement within the master iterate.

If the value for clustering factor approaches the number of blocks in the base table, then the index is said to be clustered. http://www.oracle.com/pls/db112/search?remark=quick_search&word=clustered+index
There is no create clustered index in Oracle.
