[note] running multiple audio apps along with runescape

Hello everyone
For those battling with their java hogging the audio device *and for those who waste their time with runescape *included* *
Install PulseAudio and follow their instruction, be sure to READ ( and more if you are like me that can't survive without listening to music).
After installing and testing everything go to console type in:
$ padsp opera
Note I use opera, although I'm pretty sure most of you use firefox. Don't bother though, firefox 3.5 will hang on, been looking on how to fix it but not close enough.
if you run
$ pavucontrol
you should be able to see all the applications that uses audio routed onto it and be able to manipulate the volume of each one
Alright going back to the 'dadsp opera' step, go to runescape.org or whatever site that contains java mini games or application that uses audio, run it and you should be able to get it working. In the 'pavucontrol' it'd be marked as "OSS Emulation"
Along with this, be sure to check on libflashsupport-pulse (using 32 bit one personally)
Sorry if this wasn't the section, wanted to post this since it wasn't anywhere. I'd hope it be helpful to others
Cheers

Ok, fixed it! Sorry if I wasted anyone's time. I converted the struggling clips from aac to mp3 and now everything's good.

How do I run multiple java apps in one JVM to reduce memory use?

Hi all,
I saw an article either on the web or in a magazine not too long ago about how to "detect" if the app is already running, and if so, it hands off the new instance to the already running JVM, which then creates a thread to run the Java app in. As it turns out, my app will be used in an ASP environment, through Citrix. We may have as many as 50 to 100 users running the same app, each with their own unique user ID, but all using the same one server to run it on. Each instance eats up 25MB of memory right now. So the question is if anybody knows of a URL or an app like this that can handle the process of running the same (or even different Java) apps in one JVM as separate threads, instead of requring several instances of the JVM to run? I know this article presented a fully working example, and I believe I know enough to do it but I wanted ot use the article as a reference to make sure it is done right. I know that each app basically would use the same one "launcher" program that would on first launch "listen" to a port, as well as send a message through the port to see if an existing launcher was running. If it does, it hands off the Java app to be run to the existing luancher application and shuts down the 2nd launching app. By using this method, the JVM eats up its normal memory, but each Java app only consumes its necessary memory as well and doesn't use up more JVM instance memory.
Thanks.

UIX : Not able to use messageFileUpload along with messageChoice
I used messageFileUpload UIX element and associated upload button to fileupload servlet. This servlet just captures the file and put it in desired location. This works just fine.
My client wanted me to add another choice filed on UI. I used messageChoice. I named the field as fileType. All the options have name and value populated but when I submit the form servlet is reading fileType as NULL.
I am not sure what's happening. Please let me know how should I send file handle as well fileType ?

What exactly are you expecting this to do for you?
Forall is designed to process batches of DML to prevent context switching from PL/SQL to SQL.
Has no relevance for what you are trying to do.
If you don't want to call the procedure multiple times, you need to rewrite it to passs the cursor to the function, then have the function process all the records.

After updating to Firefox5.1, Nvidia kernal mode driver frequently "not responding & crashed then recovered", along with crashing of the Firefox browser.

After updating to Firefox5.1, Nvidia kernal mode driver frequently "not responding & crashed then recovered", along with crashing of the Firefox browser.

I have the same problem. I just upgraded to Win 7, no problems. Then I upgraded to FF 4.0, and I kept getting Nvidia Video Card crashes. I always undo my last computer change/install when something like this happens, so I immediately uninstalled 4.0, and went back to my older version of Firefox. No problems ever since.

Can not run multiple firefox windows with version 4

After the upgrade to FF4 the problem started happening. In ver 3 I used the profile manager and was able to run 2 firefox windows at the same time with no problems in Windows 7.
Now when I try to do this with version 4, one firefox window errors out with 'firefox stopped working'
I thought it was due to an incompatible add on or something, so I did a complete program removal, rebooted, cleaned the registry and removed all folders that firefox put on my system. The problem continues.

You can only run multiple version at the same time if the next version is started with the -no-remote switch added to the command line in the desktop shortcut.
"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox XX\firefox.exe" -no-remote -P

How to package resource files for iPad app along with ipa file

Hello,
I am developing an app for iPad in Flash Builder 4 and Packager for Iphone.
I want to keep my xml-asset files local to the app. When I run my app in flash builder, I load the resources locally.
When I upload the same onto iPad, I need to package the resource files along with the ipa file.
I tried compiling the air-project with "-include-file" compiler option, but in vain.
Any help?
Tanu

You can read through the resources documentation for iOS here:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/air/extensions/WSf268776665d7970d-2e74ffb4130044f3619-7ff8.htm l
Of particular interest is the line:
"3. It moves the resource files to the top-level directory of the application."
So not sure if you are using an ant build script or whatever to build your ANE, but as long as you place these json files into the folder with your library when you build the ANE, these will end up getting copied to the top-level directory of the application when an application is built using this ANE.
This is exactly how I include an iOS .bundle of resources along with a .a in an ANE and it works fine. Nice clean packaging when distributing the ANE too.

Is there a way to open powerpc installer in Mavericks to just install library files (not run power pc app)?

Hello, I was looking to install some files from a power pc program. However, I have osx x mavericks. I know the deal, since snow leopard apple swicthed to intel processors. I was wondering since I only need to install files and not install and run a powerpc app ,is there any way I can get the installer open to grab these files that I need? I just need the files, not to run the program, there has to be a way around this without having to run a program like paralells or to run a dual boot with leopard on another drive?
I'm trying to run a music plug in instrument program in Logic and I have everything installed except for the actual sound libraries wich need to be installed off this power pc installer. I went to the companies website and downloaded and installed all of the latest updates. I then ran a report which is telling me that I just need to install the missing library files (on the powere pc installation). Which I find confusing since I thought the whole point of the update i nstall was a way around that? Any help would be appreciated, thanks for your time.

In my experience advising Logic users, depending upon the version of Logic and the model Mac you are using, if your Mac will boot from Snow Leopard, you can install Logic and all of its plug-ins in Snow Leopard and then upgrade to Mavericks.

Running multiple java apps simultaneously, each using a different jre.

I have a situation where I have 3 or 4 applications (and one applet) that were built over time, each with a different version of the jdk (ranging from 1.2.2.005 to 1.3.2). I need to know of a way (and it must exist) to run each of these applications on the same machine, and at runtime, have each application (or applet) run with its respective version of the jre. Certainly, one could change some source code and make all programs compatible with a particular jre, but that doesn't solve my problem if a new app is built with a new version of the jdk down the road. Currently, each runs fine by themselves, but if I try to run them together as different processes, some won't do anything because the default jre may not be what it needs. Would the Java Plug-in software have a role to play in this? Is there a way to specify (link) which application should use which jre?
P.S. These applications (right now) don't have to interact or interface in any way. I just need to have them all running as separate processes on the same machine and be able to jump from one to the other.

However ... if you have the programs running in Java1.x, I
wouldn't recommend to let it run under Java 1.y; atleast
not without thorough testing.I do it all the time and have not had a problem. I'm
currently using JDK 1.4 beta 3 and I regularly run a
Java application written with JDK 1.1.
It sounds like the programs you are running are
relying on behavior that is not guaranteed. If that
behavior changes in a later version, it can break your
program. Program to the contracts provided by other
classes and packages, and you should have few or no
problems.I guess you are right. Maybe you can help me with the following problem (this is off this topic, I know): I have Swing JDK 1.2 and Swing from JDK 1.3. I have to register keys on components.
In JDK 1.2 I can use registerKeyBoardAction, in JDK 1.3 I have to use input maps and action maps. Both solutions only work with certain JDK. What I did was writing code which detects the java version and takes the appropriate action to register the keys. To make the thing compile in 1.2, I have to use reflection for the input/action map methods, because they are only available in 1.3.
Any idea how to solve this more elegantly ?

Cron job not running - script uses rsync, ssh (with id_rsa)

Does anyone know how to get cron to run a rsync/ssh script which uses id_rsa for passwordless logins?
I have a backup script I have slaved for months over that works wonderfully when running it from the command line.
It uses rsync and connects with SSH (passwordless using ssh keys). I have setup id_rsa and id_rsa.pub for passwordless logins (this is my user account, and connects using root@ to the server)
As stated all works find when run from the command line. But when I setup a cron job to run this file (exact same line I run from the command line) it does not execute. Actually, it does run, as I have an email notifiction which sends to me. It is just the rsync/ssh part that does not run.
I have spent days and days trying to figure it out. No error messages occur, nothing. Took me a while to find out cron is emailing the user account on Lion the messages (not to a proper email address).
The error shows a permission denied, which I believe to be the cron user cannot use the id_rsa/ssh connection.
Cron is running the script as my user, the same I use on the command line. I even tried copying the id_rsa to the root user .ssh folder in case cron is running as root but that does not work either.
So does anyone know how to get cron to run this rsync/ssh script which used id_rsa for passwordless logins?
Thanks a lot

YES! Got it working, finally!
So the issue is indeed cron/launchd not being able to access the ssh-agent which holds the key.
So this is the solution...
Download keychain for Mac:
http://www.funtoo.org/wiki/Keychain
Then once its installed and configured, the script to run needs this added to the top:
eval `keychain --noask --eval id_rsa` || exit 1
Note I am using id_rsa whereas keychains instructions refer to id_dsa so I just changed it and it works OK.
When the script runs the first time it asks for the key password. Then it works from then on.
What I do not know yet is will I need to re-enter the password when I logoff/logon again. That will cause an issue as I auto restart the Mac every day which means if I am off for a few days backup will stop (can you see the madness in this issue!).
