Need a Help building Longer datatypes
Hi Friends,
I have a Complex problem right now.
I am trying to build a longer datatypes of an unsinged interger where in we can specify the length of it where in we can specify number of bits required to store the data and is this is exceeding the long int data type of c++.
I tried to build this by using the concepts of unsigned integer algorithm.
I would really appericiate if some one can help me in converting it too java.
One of the main difficulties i am facing right now is i do not have any idea about how to overload Arithmatic operators like (+,-,*,/ ,% ....) in java.
I would really grateful if somebody can help me in this regards....
Thanks in adavance!!!

That's 'cause java doesn't support operator overloading.

Need some help building a game for a school project
I have to build a game called quads.
My java knowledge is not the best there is, so i'm looking for some existing code i could use for my game.
Here are some game details.
- The game is played by 2 players (on the same computer).
- both players have 18 square stones.
- the stones are divided in 4 sides,
- each side can be shaped, with horizontal- or vertical lines, gray, or black
- http://213.73.158.54/plaatjes/stones.htm for some preview images
- player1 has only gray stones, player2 only black.
- both players have 1 white stone, wich they have to use first.
- the game is over when one of the players can no longer place one of his stones on the board.
What i'm looking for,
I'm looking for a source of a similar game, with:
- a mouse listener, with te option te rotate the selected stone (0, 90, 180, 270), and to move the selected stone.
- enable/disable stone collections. (take turns)
PS. if you don't know where i can find a source similar to this game, sites with game souces are also welcome.
Thanks alot :DOk, here's what i already have.

My problems right now are,
- i can't select more than 1 stone
- i can't rotate 1 stone (i did rotate them all, but that's a bit useless)
- i can't make players to take turns.
- i can't move stones, i can only copy them...
So if i can't use source codes, does anyone know a tutorial for all this?
PS. sorry about the dutch code. -
Need serious help building G4 from spare parts.
I got a free Powermac G4 Shell. It is the AGP Graphics Sawtooth (400mhz). I salvaged 3 hardrives, 4 128mb Ram Sticks, and Video Card from an old PC (all of which are in working condition.) I have two of the hard drives connected, and everything else installed, but when I fire it up the monitor just displays the "monitor is working" screen. You can hear the fans kicking on, and the hard drives activating, but the small light by the power button doesn't come on (however a faint orange light on the CD Drive comes on) I know that the hard drives have a PC Operating system on them. Should I just drop the Mac OS into the tray after start up? I am lost! Please help! Any suggestion and tips are appreciated.
Here's the spec sheet on the PMG4 AGP 400MHz. http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/powermacg4/stats/powermac_g4_400agp.html
The hard drives should probably not be a problem. The RAM and video card could be a problem. When the Mac starts the boot process are any bongs heard, If 3 bongs, there's a RAM problem.
What OS CD do you have? The one that came with the Mac? Or a retail (black with silver X) OS X CD/DVD? A gray installer from another model Mac won't work.
Since there is no Mac OS on the hard drive(s), put the OS CD/DVD in the tray & depress the "c" key at startup. If the Mac boots to the installer (even without video), you will know that there is a chance that you can get it to operate.
Post back with answers & progress.
Cheers, Tom

Need some help: my itunes won't sync with my iphone anymore. Both softwares are up to date and I've reinstalled itunes. After I reinstall, it syncs. But then when I reboot my computer, it no longer syncs anymore and I have to keep reinstalling itunes. Thoughts???
thought that it was possible to have the same iTunes library on any machine that was authorised, a kind of cloud-iTunes I guess.
That would convenient, but sadly it is not the case. Sorry!
Either way your welcome and best of luck!

I am currently using an ipod touch 3. When i record in voice memos with the apple earphones(with an inbuilt mic) i can see on the screen that its recording;
but when i hear it, its just a long beep. Need some help!Does the mic work for other apps like Voice Control?
Does the mic work OK in other devices?
Have you tried it with another mic?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Need your help on performance issue please
Hello everyone!
I need your help to understand an effect I notice with a Thread class I built. I currently work on enhancement of my application Playlist Editor (see http://www.lightdev.com/page74.htm) and a new release will be available soon.
Among other extensions the new release will have a title filter function which is based on audio data that is recursively read from ID3 tags of files found in a given root directory. The data collection is done by a CollectionThread class which reads into a data model class AudioDataModel and the entire process works fine, no problem with that.
However, when my application is started for the first time the CollectionThread runs approximately 3 minutes to collect data from approximately 4300 audio files on an Intel Pentium M 1,4 GHz, 512 MB RAM, Windows XP SP2. When the application is shut down and started again, it takes only a few seconds to do the same task for all subsequent launches.
I already tried to start the application with java option -Xms40m to increase initial heap size. This increases performance in general but the effect is still the same, i.e. first run lasts significantly longer than subsequent runs.
I also tried to build a pool mechanism which creates many empty objects in the data model and then releases them to contain the actual data at is being read in but this did not lead to better performance.
It must have to do with how Java (or Windows?) allocates and caches memory. I wonder whether there is a way to pre-allocate memory or if there are any other ideas to improve performance so that the process always only takes seconds instead of minutes?
I attach the key classes to this message. Any help or ideas is much appreciated!
Thanks a lot a best regards
Ulrich
PS: You can use the news subscription service at
http://www.lightdev.com/dynTemplate.php4?id=80&dynPage=subscribe.php4 to be informed when the new release of Playlist Editor is available.
All classes posted here do not need debugging, they already have proven to run error free. The classes are only posted for information for the interested reader - no need to go through all the stuff in detail - only if it interests you.
My application calls class CollectionThread wich is a subclass of InfoThread. CollectionThread recursively goes through a directory and file structure and stores found ID3 tag information in instances of class ID3v11Tag which in turn gets stored in one instance of class AudioDataModel. All classes are shown below.
This is the mentioned CollectionThread

*Hi Franck,
thank you, mate. I did what you suggested (changed class attached) but that did not change the mentioned behaviour.
The first run is approximately 75 seconds with Java option -Xms40m and approx. double without, the second run and all subsequent runs are only 2-3 seconds each (!!!) even when terminating and re-starting the application between thread runs.
I'm pretty clueless about that, any more help on this anyone?
Thanks a lot and best regards
Ulrich

Exporting a table with Long datatype col. name
Hello,
I need help exporting a table, One of the column is long datatype.
How can I do this without using Export Util?
Is it possible.
(If someone has a solution then PLEASE Email
me)
URGENT.
Thanks.
Pankaj Patel.Just wanted to find out, if you already solved this problem. I have a similar issue with long column. I am trying to sql dump a table with long column that will be imported into another database(probably using sql*load), but the spooled file puts the data from the long column in separate lines 80 char long and not on a single line. I have set the long to 64000 and linesize to 32000. Wrap is on too.

Extracting clob/blob/long datatypes in delimited file
I have a few tables in database that have clob/blob/long datatypes. I need to unload this data into delimited file and reload the data into another database. I don't want to use export/import.
Currently the code that i have can handle varchar2, number, date datatypes quite easily using sqlloader.
The tables are not too big (hundred to 10k rows approximately) and performance is important but not crucial. The script can run for a few minutes unloading data, that is fine. Code maintenance is of higher priority with pl/sql being the preferred scripting language.
From the sqlloader manual, i glean that use of special delimiter is important, something like <startlob> and <endlob> .
I need ideas on how to do this.Hi Buddy.
I am having same kind of Problem. I am using very similar procedure Instead of PUT_RAW I am using put line.
Writing is not a problem after writing the image into a file I cannot open that. That means Image got corrupted. If you find out some solutions for your problem please help me
My email id is [email protected]
Thanks

I need your help with a decision to use iPhoto. I have been a PC user since the mid 1980’s and more recently have used ACDSee to manage my photo images and Photoshop to edit them. I have used ProShow Gold to create slideshows. I am comfortable with my own folder and file naming conventions. I currently have over 23,000 images of which around 60% are scans going back 75 years. Since I keep a copy of the originals, the storage requirements for over 46,000 images is huge. 180GB plus.
I now have a Macbook Pro and will add an iMac when the new models arrive. For my photos, I want to stay with Photoshop which also gives me the Bridge. The only obvious reason to use iPhoto is to take advantage of Faces and the link to iMovie to make slideshows. What am I missing and is using iPhoto worth the effort?
If I choose to use iPhoto, I am not certain whether I need to load the originals and the edited versions. I suspect that just the latter is sufficient. If I set PhotoShop as my external editor, I presume that iPhoto will keep track of all changes moving forward. However, over 23,000 images in iPhoto makes me twitchy and they are appear hidden within iPhoto. In the past, I have experienced syncing problems with, and database errors in, large databases. If I break up the images into a number of projects, I loose the value of Faces reaching back over time.
Some guidance and insight would be appreciated. I have a number of Faces questions which I will save for later.Bridge and Photoshop is a common file-based management system. (Not sure why you'd have used ACDSEE as well as Bridge.) In any event, it's on the way out. You won't be using it in 5 years time.
Up to this the lack of processing power on your computer left no choice but to organise this way. But file based organisation is as sensible as organising a Shoe Warehouse based on the colour of the boxes. It's also ultimately data-destructive.
Modern systems are Database driven. Files are managed, Images imported, virtual versions, lossless processing and unlimited editing are the way forward.
For a Photographer Photoshop is overkill. It's an enormously powerful app, a staple of the Graphic Designers' trade. A Photographer uses maybe 15% to 20% of its capability.
Apps like iPhoto, Lightroom, Aperture are the way forward - for photographers. There's the 20% of Photoshop that shooters actually use, coupled with management and lossless processing. Pop over to the Aperture or Lightroom forums (on the Adobe site) and one comment shows up over and over again... "Since I started using Aperture/ Lightroom I hardly ever use Photoshop any more..." and if there is a job that these apps can do, then the (much) cheaper Elements will do it.
The change is not easy though, especially if you have a long-standing and well thought out filing system of your own. The first thing I would strongly advise is that you experiment before making any decisions. So I would create a Library, import 300 or 400 shots and play. You might as well do this in iPhoto to begin with - though if you’re a serious hobbyist or a Pro then you'll find yourself looking further afield pretty soon. iPhoto is good for the family snapper, taking shots at birthdays and sharing them with friends and family.
Next: If you're going to successfully use these apps you need to make a leap: Your files are not your Photos.
The illustration I use is as follows: In my iTunes Library I have a file called 'Let_it_Be_The_Beatles.mp3'. So what is that, exactly? It's not the song. The Beatles never wrote an mp3. They wrote a tune and lyrics. They recorded it and a copy of that recording is stored in the mp3 file. So the file is just a container for the recording. That container is designed in a specific way attuned to the characteristics and requirements of the data. Hence, mp3.
Similarly, that Jpeg is not your photo, it's a container designed to hold that kind of data. iPhoto is all about the data and not about the container. So, regardless of where you choose to store the file, iPhoto will manage the photo, edit the photo, add metadata to the Photo but never touch the file. If you choose to export - unless you specifically choose to export the original - iPhoto will export the Photo into a new container - a new file containing the photo.
When you process an image in iPhoto the file is never touched, instead your decisions are recorded in the database. When you view the image then the Master is presented with these decisions applied to it. That's why it's lossless. You can also have multiple versions and waste no disk space because they are all just listings in the database.
These apps replace the Finder (File Browser) for managing your Photos. They become the Go-To app for anything to do with your photos. They replace Bridge too as they become a front-end for Photoshop.
So, want to use a photo for something - Export it. Choose the format, size and quality you want and there it is. If you're emailing, uploading to websites then these apps have a "good enough for most things" version called the Preview - this will be missing some metadata.
So it's a big change from a file-based to Photo-based management, from editing files to processing Photos and it's worth thinking it through before you decide. -
BW error. Need urgent Help( I will give out full points).
We have BW version 3.1 and content 3.3.
We are doing loads to ODS and getting oracle partition error. It gives Oracle partition error ORA-14400. inserted partition key doesn't map to any parititon.
The exception must either be prevented, caught within the procedure
"INSERT_ODS"
(FORM)", or declared in the procedure's RAISING clause.
o prevent the exception, note the following:
atabase error text........: "ORA-14400: inserted partition key does not map to
any partition"
nternal call code.........: "[RSQL/INSR//BIC/B0000401000 ]"
lease check the entries in the system log (Transaction SM21).
ou may able to find an interim solution to the problem
n the SAP note system. If you have access to the note system yourself,
se the following search criteria:
The termination occurred in the ABAP program "GP3WRFMGVS1D8IW16LLGSL4QQKH " in

Need some help in creating Search Help for standard screen/field
I need some help in adding a search-help to a standard screen-field.
Transaction Code - PP01,
Plan Version - Current Plan (PLVAR = '01'),
Object Type - Position ( OTYPE = 'S'),
Click on Infotype Name - Object ( Infotype 1000) and Create.
I need to add search help to fields Object Abbr (P1000-SHORT) / Object Name (P1000-STEXT).
I want to create one custom table with fields, Position Abb, Position Name, Job. Position Abb should be Primary Key. And when object type is Position (S), I should be able to press F4 for Object Abb/Object Name fields and should return Position Abbr and Position Name.
I specify again, I have to add a new search help to standard screen/field and not to enhance it.
This is HR specific transaction. If someone has done similar thing with some other transation, please let me know.
There is no existing search help for these fields. If sm1 ever tried or has an idea how to add new search help to a standard screen/field.
It's urgent.
Thanks in advace. Suitable answers will be rewardedHi Pradeep,
Please have a look into the below site which might be useful

A search help exit is a function module for making the input help process described by the search help more flexible than possible with the standard version.
This function module must have the same interface as function module F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE. The search help exit may also have further optional parameters (in particular any EXPORTING parameters).
A search help exit is called at certain timepoints in the input help process.
Note: The source text and long documentation of the above-specified function module (including the long documentation about the parameters) contain information about using search help exits.
Function modules are provided in the function library for operations that are frequently executed in search help exits. The names of these function modules begin with the prefix F4UT_. These function modules can either be used directly as search help exits or used within other search help exits. You can find precise instructions for use in the long documentation for the corresponding function module.
During the input help process, a number of timepoints are defined that each define the beginning of an important operation of the input help process.
If the input help process is defined with a search help having a search help exit, this search help exit is called at each of these timepoints. If required, the search help exit can also influence the process and even determine that the process should be continued at a different timepoint.
timepoints
The following timepoints are defined:
1. SELONE
Call before selecting an elementary search help. The possible elementary search helps are already in SHLP_TAB. This timepoint can be used in a search help exit of a collective search help to restrict the selection possibilities for the elementary search helps.
Entries that are deleted from SHLP_TAB in this step are not offered in the elementary search help selection. If there is only one entry remaining in SHLP_TAB, the dialog box for selecting elementary search helps is skipped. You may not change the next timepoint.
The timepoint is not accessed again if another elementary search help is to be selected during the dialog.
2. PRESEL1
After selecting an elementary search help. Table INTERFACE has not yet been copied to table SELOPT at this timepoint in the definition of the search help (type SHLP_DESCR_T). This means that you can still influence the attachment of the search help to the screen here. (Table INTERFACE contains the information about how the search help parameters are related to the screen fields).
3. PRESEL
Before sending the dialog box for restricting values. This timepoint is suitable for predefining the value restriction or for completely suppressing or copying the dialog.
4. SELECT
Before selecting the values. If you do not want the default selection, you should copy this timepoint with a search help exit. DISP should be set as the next timepoint.
5. DISP
Before displaying the hit list. This timepoint is suitable for restricting the values to be displayed, e.g. depending on authorizations.
6. RETURN (usually as return value for the next timepoint)
The RETURN timepoint should be returned as the next step if a single hit was selected in a search help exit.
It can make sense to change the F4 flow at this timepoint if control of the process sequence of the Transaction should depend on the selected value (typical example: setting SET/GET parameters). However, you should note that the process will then depend on whether a value was entered manually or with an input help.
7. RETTOP
You only go to this timepoint if the input help is controlled by a collective search help. It directly follows the timepoint RETURN. The search help exit of the collective search help, however, is called at timepoint RETTOP.
8. EXIT (only for return as next timepoint)
The EXIT timepoint should be returned as the next step if the user had the opportunity to terminate the dialog within the search help exit.
9. CREATE
The CREATE timepoint is only accessed if the user selects the function "Create new values". This function is only available if field CUSTTAB of the control string CALLCONTROL was given a value not equal to SPACE earlier on.
The name of the (customizing) table to be maintained is normally entered there. The next step returned after CREATE should be SELECT so that the newly entered value can be selected and then displayed.
10. APP1, APP2, APP3
If further pushbuttons are introduced in the hit list with function module F4UT_LIST_EXIT, these timepoints are introduced. They are accessed when the user presses the corresponding pushbutton.
Note: If the F4 help is controlled by a collective search help, the search help exit of the collective search help is called at timepoints SELONE and RETTOP. (RETTOP only if the user selects a value.) At all other timepoints the search help exit of the selected elementary search help is called.
If the F4 help is controlled by an elementary search help, timepoint RETTOP is not executed. The search help exit of the elementary search help is called at timepoint SELONE (at the
F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE
This module has been created as an example for the interface and design of Search help exits in Search help.
All the interface parameters defined here are mandatory for a function module to be used as a search help exit, because the calling program does not know which parameters are actually used internally.
A search help exit is called repeatedly in connection with several
events during the F4 process. The relevant step of the process is passed on in the CALLCONTROL step. If the module is intended to perform only a few modifications before the step, CALLCONTROL-STEP should remain unchanged.
However, if the step is performed completely by the module, the following step must be returned in CALLCONTROL-STEP.
The module must react with an immediate EXIT to all steps that it does not know or does not want to handle.
Hope this info will help you.

Need some help in Rounding a double value to a whole number
Hey Peeps,
Need some help here, I got a method that returns a value in double after a series of calculation.
I need to know how can I round the double value, so for example,
1. if the value is 62222.22222222, it rounds to 62222 and
2. if the value is 15555.555555, it rounds to 15556
How can i do this
ZubHi Keerthi- Try this...
1. if the value is 62222.22222222, it rounds to 62222 and
double d = 62222.22222222;long l = (int)Math.round(d * 100); // truncatesd = l / 100.0;
double d = 62222.22222222;
System.out.println(d);
long l = (int)Math.round(d * 100);
// truncatesSystem.out.println(l);
d = l / 100.0;System.out.println(d);
for (int i = 0; i < 1000; i++)
{ d -= 0.1;}
for (int i = 0; i < 1000; i++)
{ d += 0.1;}System.out.println(d);

Anybody who can help me? I really need your help
I've tried to execute J2ee tutorial examples.
I don't know why this sample didn't execute...I've already finished to set up J2EE and enviornment variables.
I was trying this part from j2ee tutorial titled as "Packing Web modules".
Whenever I type "asant create-war" to make web modules in command window. I always got error.
Packaging Web Modules(From J2ee tutorial for your information)
A web module must be packaged into a WAR in certain deployment scenarios and whenever you want to distribute the web module. You package a web module into a WAR using the Application Server deploytool utility, by executing the jar command in a directory laid out in the format of a web module, or by using the asant utility. This tutorial allows you to use use either the first or the third approach. To build the hello1 application, follow these steps:
In a terminal window, go to <INSTALL>/j2eetutorial14/examples/web/hello1/.
Run asant build. This target will spawn any necessary compilations and will copy files to the <INSTALL>/j2eetutorial14/examples/web/hello1/build/ directory.
To package the application into a WAR named hello1.war using asant, use the following command:
asant create-war
This command uses web.xml and sun-web.xml files in the <INSTALL>/j2eetutorial14/examples/web/hello1 directory.
To learn how to configure this web application, package the application using deploytool by following these steps:
Start deploytool.
Create a web application called hello1 by running the New Web Component wizard. Select FileNewWeb Component.
In the New Web Component wizard:
Select the Create New Stand-Alone WAR Module radio button.
In the WAR File field, enter <INSTALL>/j2eetutorial14/examples/web/hello1/hello1.war. The WAR Display Name field will show hello1.
In the Context Root field, enter /hello1.
Click Edit Contents to add the content files.
In the Edit Contents dialog box, navigate to <INSTALL>/j2eetutorial14/examples/web/hello1/build/. Select duke.waving.gif, index.jsp, and response.jsp and click Add. Click OK.
Click Next.
Select the No Component radio button and click Next.
Click Finish.
Select FileSave.
A sample hello1.war is provided in <INSTALL>/j2eetutorial14/examples/web/provided-wars/. To open this WAR with deploytool, follow these steps:
Select FileOpen.
Navigate to the provided-wars directory.
Select the WAR.
Click Open Module.
I guess this step is for checking my system about setup information. I not sure how to change it.

Thank you in advance.ok,
First of all make sure your tutorial folder is installed from the root:
C:\javaeetutorial5
or
D:\javaeetutorial5
it makes things so simple.
Secondly:
set your jee tutorial home
JAVAEE.TUTORIAL.HOME =
C:/javaeetutorial5
Thirdly: check in:
C:\javaeetutorial5\examples\bp-project
make a copy of the build.properties.sample save it as build.propropties, as a property file,
edit the properties file as in:
build.properties
As follows:
# uncomment the property javaee.home, and add the path
# to your GlassFish Java EE 5 SDK installation
javaee.home=c:/Sun/SDK
javaee.tutorial.home=c:/javaeetutorial5
# Uncomment the property j2ee.server.username,
# and replace the administrator username of the app-server
javaee.server.username=admin
# Uncomment the property j2ee.server.passwordfile,
# and replace the following line to point to a file that
# contains the admin password for your app-server.
# The file should contain the password in the following line:
AS_ADMIN_PASSWORD=admin1234and so fourth. Some of the settings as the application server name is all done for you
and then test it again.
Take care of editing the property file. It can give you headache.
Note also that this is for application server 9.1 - JEE5.

My airport problem has returned big time --Need some Help!!
Aloha once again:
I though that this was fixed by simply changing channels on my airport router, but that fix only lasted for a few days, but now it's back and even worse. Let me give you some background on this problem. Here's my original message concerning the problem:
I have my Airport Router connected to the Internet via DSLcable. I then tie my two computers into the internet via their airport cards. For about 6 months this system has been working just fine. Recently my desktop computer quit listening to the router and can no longer connect to the internet. It shows no signal strength and the name of the network on the Airport is not seen in the "connect to internet" panel. The same Airport works just fine on my LapTop and I am using it right now to get this message off to the internet.
I have fixed permissions, removed the airport card and cleaned the connector, the antenna plug and removed the system configuration folder from library preferences all to no avail!
This problem has been hounding me, intermittently, for over a year now What can I do to remedy this??? HELP!!!!
Dan Page
Maui, Hawaii
The suggestion to change channels, that came from this original request, worked but just for a very short time. Now I have to shut down my computer overnight to get connected and then it only lasts for several hours and the connection quits.
I thought maybe heat was a problem, but the last time it happened I opened the computer and played a large fan right on the card. This did not help. I shut it down for the night and it was fine the next morning for about 2 hours.
One new data point; if I turn off just the airport on my laptop computer overnight, that will fix the problem for a short time also.
Still need some help!!!
DanFirst, power off both the Time Capsule and AirPort Express.
Wait a few minutes, then power up the Time Capsule first, and let it run for a few minutes.
Temporarily, move the AirPort Express to the same room or close proximity to the AirPort Express and power it up.
If the Express powers up correctly, power it off again and move it approximately half the distance between the Time Capsule and the general area that needs more wireless coverage. Try to minimize obstructions like walls, ceiling, heavy furniture, etc as much as possible.
Please report on your results.
