Compiling forms for linux

Hi All,
I am trying to recompile forms on RHL 3.0 developed on Win2K machines. It seems the compile utility is not being able to load jvm library. It gives following error.
----8<---------------
f90genm: error while loading shared libraries: libjvm.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
----8<---------------
I'm having 10gAS(904) on RHL and 9iDS (902) on Win2K. I'm not using GUI, since I'm working thru' telnet.
Can anyone throw some light on it?
Thanks and regards,
Kinjal Sonpal

Hi All,
I could find a workaround by using the GUI and recompiling is done properly. However, it still does not solve the original problem that I had. I'll be posting that again in a separate post.

Font Smoothing in LabView for Linux

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has been able to get their fonts in LabView for Linux to be either smoothed using Gnomes subpixel smoother for LCDs, or any other type of anti-aliasing. I currently can use truetype fonts in LabView, and for the most part they do look pretty decent.. btu they are not smoothed at all. Every single application I have loaded has smooth fonts other than LabView. Please let me know if anyone has managed to get this working... and if so, how.
I am currently using Gentoo with all of my packages updated less than a month ago, with LabView 8.2
Thanks for any info!

Unfortunately, we do not support fonts on your operating system. Hopefully another customer is more familiar with this.

Does Active directory support for linux/mac/ubuntu clients?

Hello everyone,
I am pretty new to Active directory and my company has few requirements which he need to achieve by implementing Microsoft Active directory. I tried reading some blogs/documents on google but was not able to get the clear understanding. So would request
you all to please help me in getting the correct answers.
1) Does AD supports linux/mac/ubuntu clients getting authenticated from it?
2) Does AD supports root/non-root privilege login which is like admin/non-admin rights in windows for linux/mac/ubuntu?
3) Does Password policy works well on linux/mac/ubuntu cleints?
4) Does AD support auto-loading application after successful login in linux/mac/ubuntu clients? For eg: Logging into jabber client as soon as user logins IN.
5) Can AD trace and log the authentication information for linux/mac/ubuntu clients?
6) Does AD support rules based login for linux/mac/ubuntu clients?
7) Do we have high availability in AD runing Active-Active?
8) can we push patched/security policies via AD on linux/mac/ubuntu clients?
9) Can we schedule crons for linux/mac/ubuntu clients via AD like we have task schedules set-up in Windows?
10) Can linux/mac/ubuntu cleints be included part of GPO?
11) Auto-backups or auto mapping of shared drives by AD on widnows/linux/mac/ubuntu cleints?
12) Can we capture licenses etc(Server management) thing in AD.
13) Does AD support communication over SSL.
14) Does AD supports SSO authentication for linux/mac/ubuntu clients?
Thanks guys in advance
Regards
Sam

While I cannot speak for mac clients, there is a labour intensive method that allows linux distros to be able to connect to AD in a windows environment. Take a look at
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2008.12.linux.aspx
for tips. Please note, it was designed with the Fedora/Red Hat Core in mind, but ubuntu distro's will also work, you just need the appropriate packages.

[SOLVED] Lousy fonts with .chm viewer for Linux

I installed the .chm file viewer HelpExplorer 3.0 in both Windows XP and Arch Linux (chm = compiled HTML help file). In Windows XP, with default fonts installed, the fonts in text read with this viewer appear crisp, sharp and anti-aliased. In Arch with KDE 3.5.7, on the other hand, the fonts appear fuzzy, grainy and don't seem to be anti-aliased, in contrast with their appearance in all other apps (except for a few such as Dillo) which render text good-looking, sharp and anti-aliased.
HelpExplorer for Linux was provided as a tarball that included a precompiled 'helpexplorer' binary. The program doesn't seem to allow for customizing font settings.
The following fonts are installed in Arch (in /usr/share/fonts/):
ttf-bitstream-vera-1.10-5 is installed by default
gsfonts 8.11-4 is installed by default
PostScript Type 1 fonts installed: Century Schoolbook, Nimbus, URW Bookman, URW Gothic, URW Palladio
ttf-ms-fonts-2.0-1 (Microsoft TTF: Andale Mono, Arial, Comic, Courier, Georgia, Impact, Tahoma, Times New Roman, Trebuchet)
font-bh-ttf-1.0.0-3 (Luxi BH)
xorg-fonts-100dpi-1.0.1-1 (courier, helvetica, lucida, new century, times)
The "Files" section of my xorg.conf looks as follows:

What do I need to do to improve the font appearance in this program in Linux?
Last edited by RobF (2007-10-02 18:06:46)

I found a solution of sorts by installing and running the Windows version of HelpExplorer in Wine or Crossover. There is still very little control over fonts but when I enlarge the default font (with 2x CTRL-+) I do get a nice-looking anti-aliased Times New Roman font, and this solution would be my preferred way of reading .chm files in Linux (i.e. better than KchmViewer or Xchm).
Recap of the problem:
1. The .chm viewer HelpExplorer Viewer 3.0 when installed in Windows XP renders fonts crisp and clear and anti-aliased.
2. The Linux version of HelpExplorer Viewer 3.0 (delivered as a precompiled executable in a tarball) doesn't render fonts antialiased, regardless of what I tried, and they look grainy and unattractive.
3. The Windows version of HelpExplorer Viewer 3.0 when installed and run in Arch in Wine or Crossover does render the default font they offer (looks like Times New Roman) fairly crisp and clear and anti-aliased, at least at the enlarged setting.
Can someone explain to me what might be going on? Why is it that the Linux version cannot render fonts anti-aliased when the Windows version running in the emulator in Linux can? Is there something that I have to change in my fonts config, fonts location, symlinks or path to get the anti-aliased fonts to work in HelpExplorer in Linux?

[SOLVED]How to install this font : it doens't seem available for Linux

Hi everyone,
I'm currently running Gnome, and I'm trying to have the same theme than here : http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/ … ent=108433. I've installed and used the Hydra theme : no problems with that.
The only thing I miss now is his font, I read the comments, and it's said the font used is "Zero Threes", they give a link (it's on page 2 if you want to check) : http://www.urbanfonts.com/fonts/Zero_Threes.htm
The problem is the font seems to be available on Mac and Windows, but I coulnd't find it for Linux. But the guy seem to have Linux and he's using it, so could somebody explain to me how can I get the font for linux ? Or if there is a way to install a Windows or a Mac font in Linux ?
Thanks you in advance !

Or, to make them available to all the users copy them to /usr/share/fonts/truetype directory.

How to install downloaded Oracle Forms Developer/Services 6i Release 2 for linux

Hi folks,
I downloaded d2k6irelease2.tar (Oracle Forms Developer/Services 6i Release
2 for linux) from
http://otn.oracle.com/software/products/forms/htdocs/linuxsoft.html
I untar the file on my linux machine however the extracted files don't
seem to contain any installing program. I didn't find products.jar in the
files and there are no script to install the software. I read the attached
doc, however it only assumes that the installation is from CD-ROM. The doc
doesn't help anything for this downloaded software. I wonder if anyone
here know how to install it. Thank you so much.
Best regards,
Kai Huang

There should be a text based installer in the /orainst sub-
directory
In that directory, just run the script:
./orainst
The installer seems to require libXm.a, which wasn't included in
my RH 7.1 installation, so I had to install the motif-
development libraries before the full install would complete
successfully.

Development of Form for Returnable and Non-returnable material Gate pass

Dear Experts,
I am working with an Indian client impementing SAP PM. I need help in developing a form for Returnable and Non Returnable Gatepass. Requirements are below;
RGP/NRGP should be made for all materials going out of the factory, irrespective of it being coded or not
It should be plant specific
It should have reference to material movement document for tracking purpose
It should have details of vendor, transport company, vehicle number, permits if required, etc
A Z report should give details of all RGP/NRGP based on material document number and date
Please guide me based on your experience.
Thanks,
Boby

Boby,
This can be met. But before developing this, have you implemented the refurbishment process of PM module? This will really help in tracking the equipment and also for the development of RGP/NRGP.
First you have to create a form for the gate pass and have to create an enhancement in MIGO for triggering the RGP/NRGP, else you can also create a separate Z transaction code for printing the Gate pass. You will get all the fields like vendor, material, QTY, movement type from the MIGO GI document.
For the gate pass the MIGO document will be the reference all the times, you can also develop a Z report for the records for the gate pass.

Praveen

Fix non-embedded fonts for USPTO filing

Hi,
The United States Patent and Trademark Office does not allow submission of PDF files with non-embedded fonts.
I know how to create documents from Word, etc. that comply with this requirement, but I frequently get PDFs from other sources that do not have all their fonts embedded, especially the asian fonts.
I know that one possible fix is to print the existing PDF as a PDF image. However, when I do this my file size becomes MUCH larger than the original. Re-printing to PDF seems like a very kludgy fix. Another very iffy fix I've used for large PDFs is to print the PDF document on paper and just scan it with our office scanner, which will keep the file size small but is a waste of time and paper.
Is there no better way to deal with the issue of non-embedded fonts?

Need Acrobat 9 Pro or Pro Extended -
Advanced > Preflight
In the Preflight dialog, open the "Options" drop-down menu and select "Create New Preflight Profile".
Give the new profile a name & save it.
In the dialog, at the left you'll see your new profile.
Locate and click on "Fixups" (2nd from bottom).
Over to the right, over the listing of fixups that appears, there is a find/search field.
Enter "embed" (the first three letters will do).
Two fixups are available.
--| Embed Fonts
--| Embed Fonts (even if text is invisible)
Select one. Under the fixup list there is an arrow pointed to the left. Click it. The center pane will display the selected fixup.
Click Save then OK.
The profile is available for use.
A Batch Sequence could be made that uses this Preflight profile to permit processing many PDFs at "one go".
[If you do not want to DIY, then use the "out of the box" profile located in the PDF fixups Group.
Both "Embed" profiles are there.]
Be well...

Hi,
Yes, that's part of the way to do it.
After uploading the binary file (.FMB) which is platform independent, you have to generate the (.FMX) in Linux, as the .FMX are platform specific.

If you want to use the email address that you used on the first account then you will need to remove it from that first account before you can do so e.g. via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's or via http://appleid.apple.com - you can create a new email address via http://gmail.com or http://hotmail.com to replace it with.

Arial font substitution for (LabVIEW for) Linux

Hello,
as LabVIEW was not capable of keeping the font size and spacing constant when running a VI under different Windows versions, screen resolutions etc, I have never used the "application", "system" and "dialog" font options in LabVIEW but have fixed all fonts to Arial 14 pt. This worked wonderful on all Windows systems - without that unnerving problem that control lables overwrite each other and things like that (what always happened when using LabVIEWs "application" font option).
Now, when running the same VIs under LabVIEW for Linux, the font looks terrible, as there is no Arial font in Linux. Does somebody know an easy way to solve this problem without setting all fonts to "application font" in LabVIEW? For instance, any "ini file type" setting in Linux telling the operating system which font to use when Arial is not present, or any free font substitution that we could add to our installer routine that the operating system would use automatically instead of Arial?
Best regards,
Gabs

Unfortunately, your problem is a version of a generic problem faced by GUI programmers of all types - how do you handle varying system fonts? There are various solutions, based on who your customers are. You are using one of the easy ones that works well until you start doing cross-platform development. The main options are, in order or increasing complexity:
Lock the font to a specific font and size. This works well if your customers are limited to a single platform and are not visually impaired (do not want to use large fonts).
Use system fonts and allow extra space. This is a compromise that only works in most cases. Use about 50% extra for small strings and 10% - 20% for larger strings. This also gives you extra space for localization, should you need it. Visually impaired customers will run into space issues, because large fonts can be 2X or more larger than the default, system fonts. Note that the different Windows variants have different font sizes as well. Windows Vista increased default font sizes, especially for some Asian languages, such as Japanese.
Query the font size on entry into a GUI VI and rescale everything appropriately. This is hard, since it must be done for every VI with a GUI. Some system dialogs do not handle large fonts well, so you will probably end up replacing them with your own versions to get good appearance. You could probably write a system to handle this sort of scaling, but to my knowledge, no one has (please prove me wrong ). I have always used custom code when needed.
No one really does this well. Change your system font on a Windows OS to large fonts and note all the problems you run into. I would recommend option 2, unless you have a lot of extra time. Your customers will love you if you pull off option 3.
More tips to help.
Do your development on the platform with the largest system fonts. If this is not possible, change the LabVIEW system fonts of your development system to match the largest size you support. I usually develop using 13pt Verdana, since it is one of the largest of the variable spaced fonts.
Check your work by using large fonts in Windows. If it looks good there, it will probably be OK for most uses.
Good luck!
