Nice Version Info Display

Has anyone seen a component for displaying robust version-control information on a folder item?
The property sheet doesn't contain important details like who modified what when. That information is probably in the database, and could be gathered into a nice view as is common to other version control systems.
Has it been done by anyone? It's a prerequisite for us to use Oracle versioning as anything more than a nicety.

I think Gerhard means info about a element, not a model.
Btw.: This function is helpful for us as well.
take care,

Target setting / version info

Hello,
when releasing a new version of a software I usually update the 'version info' dialog in the target settings. I just realized that these settings are different for debug and release mode... why is it so? One is going to distribute the release version, not the debug version, so why are there two separate entries one has to maintain? Typically, I am running the debug mode, and only at the very end I switch to relase mode. Hence typically I adapt the settings in the debug mode (year, major/minor release number) - so far I had assumed that this is the identical version info as for the release mode, but no...

Solved!
Go to Solution.

1) The history of this is as follows:
a) From the beginning of CVI, there was always a version number which applied to all binaries that you created. There were no configurations then. Also, there was no such thing as auto-increment. Users would have to explicitly set the version number to whatever they wanted.
b) Some time later, the notion of separate release and debug configurations was introduced. The version info, along with almost all other options, applied to both configurations. There was still no auto-increment.
c) Then, auto-increment was added. When auto-increment is enabled, the simple act of building your project would change the version number. But because the version number was shared accross configurations, and it didn't make sense for debug builds to "interfere" with the release build number, auto-increment was only enforced in release builds -- hence that sentence in the help.
d) The 64-bit configurations then came along. This simply increased the number of configurations from 2 to 4 but had no meaningful impact on this issue.
e) Custom configurations were introduced in CVI 2010. This required most global options to become configuration-specific. We added a note to the readme alerting users to be careful when editing these options, since they were no longer changing all configurations, but just the current configuration. This change also applied to the version field, which could now be different between debug and release builds. At this time, we could have allowed auto-increment to work for debug builds too, since it would no longer interfere with the release version number, but for the sake of not changing existing behavior unless it was absolutely necessary, we decided to continue not supporting auto-increment for debug builds. Users can still change their debug version number to whatever they chose, but it continues not incrementing with each build.
2) This is what I was talking about earlier when I was explaining the purpose of dimming. The values are different, but CVI can only show one, hence it picks one, and dims the value text -- as a visual indicator that it's not the same value for all configurations. Just like in the example of the numeric controls that I gave earlier. This only affects what you see when you first display the dialog. You can still change it, and the change will apply to all configurations.
3) This is probably happening because the name of your program, under the 64-bit configuration, is still MyEarlierProgram. In the Target Settings dialog, cycle through the configuration ring while looking at the application file name. Is it really the same for all configurations? If it's not, then you'd expect %basename (and %filename) to appear differently when you preview the Version Info dialog. %basename is not version-dependent, as you said. It's configuration-dependent.

Nokia X1-01 Cell Info Display Problem

My X1-01 sw version 05.27 ,26-05-11,RM -713, Language: MG
The problem is that it does not display Cell Info display correctly. Only few times it shows, But only for sometime. Is this bug fixed in the latest version 5.44 ???? and it also has the signal problem .. If i put it in my pocket , the whole signal goes away in both sims....

Hi Yogeshwar,
The Cell info display now a days displays only some Offers that are dished out by the Operator. Once upon a time it was showing the AREA where you are but thats no more there I think. Not atleast on the Vodafone network in India. And its the same on all handsets, not only Nokia X1-01. Recently I had contacted Vodafone in this regard and was told that the duration for which the info is flashed can not be increased.
As for the signal problem hope that the Antenna is not covered by any other object.. Refer Pg.No. 7 of the User_Guide ...Else you may have to get the phone inspected by Nokia Care...

File version info

I would like to find a way to get the file version info of an exe. I have tried the file info from openG but it does not get the version info. I looked on the MS website and found the .NET function called file version info that is supposed to be under system diagnostics but when I bring up the constuctor node it does not show up . Everything else that is supposed to be in there shows up. I want this info so that I can create a generic about dialog box for my exe. If anyone knows of an easier way to do this I would appreciate any answer.
PS I used the application builder to set the version Info..

Hi Rolf,
Thanks for your
help with the VarFileInfo\Translation resource. I realized this was a
hole in the programs functionality, and I knew a workaround, but I was
never sure how valid the workaround was. Defaulting to the English
language code does sound like a good idea. It definitely works for
LabVIEW.exe. I never bothered implementing this since this was designed
for LabVIEW-built exes, not LabVIEW itself. LabVIEW-built exes do
contain the VarFileInfo\Translation resource. I also built this in
LabVIEW 8, since that was the first version that allowed users to
specify executable versions and other info for their applications. But
it is nice as a general tool!
Hmm, thinking about
it there is possibly one more improvement. If the default english
language does not provide any string resources another possibility
might be to retrieve the current language codes from the user settings
and try with them too. But this sounds quite academical as I can't
imagine an installer manipulating the version resource of an executable
according to the currently set user language. I will have to
investigate a little more what the issue is with files not containing
any translation keys.
As to manipulating the version resource of LabVIEW executables I have
made some code too for this in the past for earlier LabVIEW versions
but found that manipulating the exe part of an executable in any way
after it has been built into an application renders the executable
unusable to run as there needs also to be some modifications at the end
of the file to point to the start of the embedded LLB in the
executable, so that was why I haven't made a tool of this yet. Glad to
see that LabVIEW 8 finally has support for adding a proper version
resource to the executable.

All deployments reporting 'CI Version Info timed out'

Hi guys,
I've had a recent development where all deployment monitoring is reporting 0% success all of a sudden.
Everything was working fine up until a few weeks ago, then I came in one morning and noticed all of my deployments were now reporting varying percentage of errors. Over time the success percent went all the way down to 0% for almost all deployments.
However, the actual deployments themselves are successful. As in the software is installed and logs report success.
Using the 'Application Infrastructure Errors' report, they are all now reporting 'CI Version Info Timed out'.
I've followed so many threads on here suggesting redeployment, updating content, updating memberships of collections etc. I've had no luck at all.
If I look on an example client I see the DCMReporting log has a few errors of 'Failed to resolve version for scope xxxxxxxxx' and the CIDownloader log reports 'Failed to delete Instance Policy xxxxxx'
I haven't made any infrastructure changes to the actual SCCM build in quite a while, though I did restart the server recently.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Just wanted to leave an update for any future Google'rs.
I may have resolved the issue, I'm just now waiting but after an hour the success rates are climbing back up across the board. After looking through all of the CIxxxxxx.log files and identifying the applications reporting the xxxx - version not found, I
completely removed those apps and re-added them.
This seemed to work so far.
Even though I had previously done this and failed, there was actually multiple apps with this issue. So I had previously done this for 1-2 apps, and the issue still reoccured, which made me incorrectly assume that this wasn't related to the problem. Following
it through I readded another 2 applications and started to see the log files clear and the success rates rise.
Still no call as to what caused it?
For those experiencing this, check your CIAgent.log for the following (taken from the linked post)
CIAgent.log
(The prod version of this app is "12", below you can see the TS was still using version "10"
CIAgentJob({BB81C59E-0D68-4F80-8C26-F3672FDA6993}):
CAgentJob::VersionInfoTimedOut for ModelName
ScopeId_FBAD85CC-8425-4A82-9A2A-A69D6941A909/RequiredApplication_826f927c-b7b4-446b-9767-9e03529677ff, version
10 not available.
CCIInfo::SetError - Setting CI level error to (0x87d00314).
<- this repeated many times
VersionInfo ModelName=ScopeId_FBAD85CC-8425-4A82-9A2A-A69D6941A909/RequiredApplication_826f927c-b7b4-446b-9767-9e03529677ff,
Version=10, IsVersionSpecific=TRUE timed out
I then used the following powershell command to generate a list of Display names and UID's:
Get-CMDeployment | select SoftwareName, ModelName |Out-GridView
and just manually found the matching UID.
I then just manually removed all deployments and then the deployment type. Simply readded the deployment type and redeployed.
Hours later and seems to be on the mend. Hopefully by tomorrow everything will be back to normal.
Note: We did have a UPS failure a few weeks ago that took out power to the ESX cluster. I can't confirm for sure that this was related but it seems to have happened around the same time...

Cell Info Display Problem

Past 2 days , my Nokia N71 cell info display gets stuck only showing one area or doesn't show at all, even though moving to another area doesn't change.

How can I create a slideshow that depicts only a version of a photo rather than the original? Since the original and new versions are saved together, the aperture slideshow often choices the original rather than the desired version to display.

There are two things we use the name "Slideshow" for in Aperture: a Slideshow Album, used for making Slideshows, and the Slideshow that is made. (Imho, it is a design mistake to not call the containers used to create Slideshows, Books, etc., "Albums".)
The Slideshow will use the Album Pick from any Stack. A good way to use Aperture is to promote the Image you want to regularly use (such as, for example, a Version with adjustments) to the top of the Stack. This makes it the Stack Pick, and will be the default Album Pick. If you haven't done that, you can still change the Album Pick for any Stack in a Slideshow Album. Expand your Stack(s), select the Image in each Stack that you want to be the Album Pick (and thus shown in the Slideshow), and "Stacks➞Set Album Pick". (Note the keyboard shortcut; there is also a Toolbar icon for this.) The change is immediate. The Slideshow will always show the Album Pick (or, if there is not one, the Stack Pick) for every Stack in your Slideshow Album.

Mouse Over Info displays immediately at Finder, Mail, Cyberduck etc.

Normaly the Infos about a Folder or File appear a few seconds after the mouse is still on it - but in my case it appearing directly.
Can somebody help ?

[Developer] How to RELIABLY get Acrobat Reader Version info from registry

(Using Wise Installation system 9.02)
First, we get the path from here:
SOFTWARE\Classes\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat\Exe
if it is not found, we get it from here:
SOFTWARE\Classes\Applications\AcroRD32.exe\shell\Read\command
and if it is still not found, we get it from here:
SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\AcroRd32.exe
Then we check the version info for the file AcroRd32.exe that is
located in one of those directories and compare it to the version
we are installing; if it is less, we install the version included
in our setup package.
Now, is this the most RELIABLE way to do this?
Should we just search for the file and get it's version info?
What if you have > 1 version of Reader installed?
What if you have Full Acrobat installed?
Is there also a way for Reader installation to NOT change the
PDF file association from Full Acrobat?

If you look at our current process, you'll see that we are checking
for multiple versions. However, there have been times when our version
installed over a later version and we cannot understand why this
happened that is why I'm addressing this here to see if anyone had
any "fool-proof" way to do it.
I know I can also check the PDF association but it may be set to Acrobat
and we do not want to modify that. We just want to check the latest
version of Reader they have installed against the one we have in our
package.

On-Canvas Info Display

I can no longer see the on-canvas info display when working in InDesign CS6. How can I change this? Thank in advance!

Steve,
I already had Smart Guides enabled, but in my frustration I deleted all guides, and it brought the info display back. Thanks so much for getting me started down the right path!

No "purchased by" or "account name" in Get Info display

The first song I purchased from the iTunes
store works fine. When I use "Get Info" to
see the details there appears to be corrent
information for the "Purchased By" and "Account
Name" fields.
Every other song I have purchased since then
does not display anything for "Purchased By"
or "Account Name" in the "Get Info" display.
The header appears to be missing or corrupt
in all of these files. None of them will play
when I click them and press play, I get no
error or sign in prompt, nothing...
I have about had it with the lack of response
I'm gotten from my emails to tech. support.
After 3 days I got a message that said I should
look for the files on the hard disk. Its clear
that they did not read my email and they have
not replied since, that was about 3 days ago...

Hi ailurous,
I run repair permissions all the time without first booting from the install disk. It works fine. On the other hand, attempting to Repair Disk without booting from the install disk will not work.
I'm thinking something other than faulty permissions is causing your problems..
That being said, I'd suggest booting off your install disk, running Disk Utility, and selecting First Aid>Repair Disk.
If it says that it couldn't repair the disk, just keep running it until it gives you the Disk Successfully Repaired message.
Let us know if this helps or if you get some error messages.

Info display in On Demand

I had FiOS TV installed earlier this week and watched my first On Demand program last night. When using the fast forward or rewind buttons on the remote, the Info Bar displays which is really annoying because the info display blocks the closed caption display for the length of time the Info bar displays (I have Info bar set to display for the lowest allowable time--2 seconds) but apparently the Info bar display when using fast forward or rewind is considered a feature rather than a bug...'-}}
If I might suggest...
It would be more practical if the Info bar displayed when the Pause button on the remote was pressed because, if one has paused the program, then obviously one has time to read the info display. Alternatively, add a "0" time display option to the Info bar display settings so one can turn off the Info bar display--I could turn it off when watching On Demand and then turn it back on for regular tv watching...

>>lacticacidtrip: I find that the OK button works best to toggle the info bar both on and off. The Exit button does work to remove the info bar.
Thanks...since I have the Info bar timeout set to 2 seconds, that's quicker than I could hit the OK or Exit buttons.
The real question is WHY the system is designed to show the Info bar when pressing fast forward or rewind buttons? I can see it being practical and useful that the Info bar displays when pressing the pause button because you then have the time to look at the Info bar data but it's just very annoying when ff/rewind and the Info bar display blocks the closed captions. Oh well..I guess I'll get used to it...'-}}

Can I disable the PS CS6 "On-Canvas Info Display"?

Is it possible to disable Photoshop CS6's "On-Canvas Info Display," the "small information pop-ups [that] are displayed near the cursor when using a variety of tools"? (circled in red below). I know it's a cool thing but it sometimes gets in the way. Any help will be appreciated. I'm running PS CS6 extended on 64 Bit Windows 7. Thanks! Jeff C.

Yes.
In Preferences - Interface, set the Show Transformation Values field to Never.

Can I change where on the screen the "get info" display pops up?

Can I change where on the screen the "get info" display pops up? I have dual 23" cinema displays and the Get Info box always pops up inconveniently on the far, far left. Is there a way to change the default location, more towards the middle, where it would fit better into my work flow?

treetopstudio,
I'm not sure to change the default of Get Info but what you could do is open the Inspector instead it 1 remembers it location when you close it and 2 when you click on another icon in finder changes to that. To open it instead of the get info window Option + Command + i or hold Option and click File show Inspector.
Hope that helps,
Weston

Cell info display on Nokia 701

Hi every body, My Nokia 701 is not displaying cell info i.e name of area or name of tower covering my phone even though I set info display to on in pull down notification menu right from time of purchase. Is this problem specific to my phone. My old phone Nokia X3-00 was showing cell info with 2G sim. Now I am having 3G sim inserted into my phone 701. But cell info display is off either with 2G or 3G coverage.

I jsut checked it on my c3 00 with vodafone and it started showing some special offers on home screen.
But I tried the same on my 701 with aircel and it doesn't show any of that.
