Object location manager

Hello !
Context :
You can register for an instance with a name in the object location
manager.
Later, you can obtain a proxy on it with the bind method of the
objLocMgr.
You need the name of the instance you want to bind.
The name is structured with / (like directory on hard disk).
Inside an application it is OK.
Problem & questions :
Bind an instance from another application. How is the syntax of the
name ?
If an application A provide an soA. How can I bind it from an
application B ?
How to bind an instance of an application A inside an application B ?

Jeanne,
I liked your approach to getting around the
deserialization error problem. Please clarify if this is
what you had in mind :
1) Every Client does a 'bind' on start-up.
2) Every Client does a de-register when they log-off.
If the answers to the points above are 'yes', I'm not
sure what the implications are from a performance
standpoint on a environment with a large number of
users, including mobile ones.
There was a design pattern presented at the Forum (I
can't remember which one) which talked about having a
remote SO do the bind to various SO's and Clients get a
reference to the <<realSO>> proxy via this remote SO.
Somewhere in the pattern was a way to get around
deserialization errors, but I just can't remember how !
Thanks.
Eric
Sorry to be late jumping into this thread - I've been chasing other
issues the last couple days.
I did not get to see <bigger>Fabrizio Genesio's presentation at Forum,
although I certainly wanted to, because his topic was somewhat similar to
mine. And Ravi's comments about de-coupling and making plug and play
components almost sound like they came out of my abstract.
Yes, Geoff, you can remove the supplier plan, bind to a distributed
service dynamically at run time, and not get a deserialization error.
There are a couple of tricks, but the code attached illustrates that it
works.
When you create your interface, also create a "dummy" or generic class
that implements that interface. I like to put the dummyClass and the
interface in the same library, because when you need one, you usually
need the other. The dummyClass should have no "real" code, and no
supplier dependencies. Just put in do-nothing methods that implement all
of the interface methods, and return nil or zero where needed, so you
don't get compiler warnings.
Then create the real implementation in a separate project, which has the
interface library as a dependency. The realClass must be a subclass of
the dummyClass that is in the interface library. This is essential to
make the dynamic binding work without the supplier dependencies. This
service project does NOT need to be a supplier to the client. All the
client needs is the interface library.
When you instantiate the service, you will instantiate and register the
realClass. When your client does the BindObject, it can bind to the
dummyClass, because the realClass "IsA" dummyClass. And you can cast the
returned object to the interface, because the dummyClass does implement
the interface.
The reason you do not get deserialization errors is fairly simple. You
have essentially created your own proxy using the dummyClass, which
exists on the client. It does not matter that the proxy has no code,
because it will never get called.
The realClass is anchored on the server, and does not need to be
recreated on the client for any reason. Serialization and
deserialization do not even occur with the realClass, therefore you get
no errors. However, if you try to send the client a reference to the
realClass, other than by way of the BindObject, then you most certainly
will get the dreaded deserialization error.
Hope this helps,
Jeanne

Subject: Re: Object location manager
When I tried this, it didn't work. Aside from the
fact that you can't dynamically load interfaces,
to the best of my knowledge (but you can dynamically
load classes which implement interfaces), the
suggested scheme simply fails.
But you have to be careful about what you're doing.
You have to really REMOVE the supplier plan for
the service object you're trying to reference,
and you have to create real applications which
are running outside of the repository. At least
two separate applications which are running from
distributions, not the repos.
If you do that, you'll find that BindObject
works just fine, but assigning the object
returned by BindObject to the interface will
produce a run-time error: 'This class does
not implement this interface.'
I can send or publish some code which demonstrates
this failure if you like. I'd be delighted to
learn that I've made a mistake somewhere.
But my theory is that once you remove supplier
plan A from the application, Forte no longer
includes plan A in the application distribution,
and so your application at run-time just has
no information about class A or SO A.
All my best,
Geoff

Object Style Manager: How to import styles into CP8 from CP7

Here's my problem:
I open a Captivate file created in CP7
I save it as a different file name in CP8
I create a new Object Style - say for a Text Caption
I export the Style - I've tried just the new style, all styles, all styles for all objects.
I create a new CP8 file, save it.
I try and import the styles exported in step 4 and get the error: "Cannot import Styles.The style file you are trying to import was exported from an earlier version of Captivate"
I don't get it. I opened the CP7 file and resaved it with a new name in CP8 in a different location.
What's the problem?

OK finally I have an answer:
Open CP7 File with Default & custom styles
Copy all slides
Create new CP8 file & save
Paste all slides to this new file & save
Object Style Manager : Export all styles of all objects
Create / Open a CP8 file
Object Style Manager : Import styles created in step 5

Bug in CP5 Object Style Manager?

Hi,
I created own styles using the Object Styles Manager and everything seems to be fine. However, when I create a new project the character size is always automatically changed to '22' although '14' was the predefined font size. This even happens if I create a project from a Project Template or a Master Slide.
The good news is that if I change the setting back to '14' before recording this size will be used for the recording. Nevertheless this is annoying because I want to provide to users a template they can use without any changes.
Best reagrds,
Alex

Hi,
For checking the preference file, you could rename the name of the folder with name "Captivate 5" at the following location:
C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\adobe\Captivate 5.
Also, if you could send me the CP4 .cp file which you are upgrading , it would be great.
Thanks,
Sikandar

Exporting Objects Style Manager file? And Overriding Preset Defaults?

Hi,
We received our upgrade of Captivate 5 from Captivate 4. I noticed the Captivate 5 does not use design template as it is replaced with Object Style Manager. I have a question, how do I override objects styles preferences presented to us from a vendor with my department's standard design template? Also, we have two copies of licensed Captivate softwares installed (One in Austin, TX and one in Washington DC).
What I am asking is it possible to export a full Style Manager file from one location and share this file with other computer where 2nd copy is installed? I don't want to export INDIVIDUALLY as I am looking for a full, and complete export?
Secondly, when we receive a Captivate project from a vendor, they have their own object design preferences and we don't want to use their preferences if we present this simulation onto our Learning Content Management System (LCMS) as we want to override preset defaults with our standard design template, is it also possible?
I want to make sure that we exhaust all of our options before we downgrade to Captivate 4 from Captivate 5.
Thanks for taking your time reading this and assistance in advance!

As you've noted, Cp5 doesn't use Design Templates, and neither does it have anything exactly equivalent to CSS or style sheets that can be applied quickly and easily across multiple projects, as you can do with web pages.
You can export all styles from a current Captivate 5 project and import the entire style set into another Cp5 project. However, in current Cp5 functionality the imported styles do not overwrite existing styles that may have the same name, and this includes the default styles. What you end up with is a lot of additional styles that have the same name with a number appended to the end to differentiate them from existing styles. Do this once or twice and things can get very messy very quickly.
We've logged a request for Adobe to consider adding the ability for authors to choose whether or not to overwrite existing styles with identical names on import. Hopefully this will happen soon. For the present however, you need to work around the issue as best you can.
If your vendor sends you a project with an existing set of styles that are customised versions of the default styles, my suggestion is that you create your own style set with unique names (e.g. a two or three letter prefix to identify them in the Object Style Manager lists) and then import the entire set as a single file into your projects.
I'm afraid that the bad news is that, since you cannot overwrite styles on import, you will need to apply your new set of styles one by one. You can use the Apply This Style To option to change all objects of a given style over to your new style, but it's still a rather tedious process.
There is no downgrade option from Captivate 4 to Captivate 5. You cannot save a Captivate 5 file as Captivate 4 format. No Captivate version has ever been able to do this as far as I can recall.

Location manager design pattern?

What is the best design pattern for using the location manager with intermittent but time-sensitive use? My app records location each time the user creates a photo, creates a note, records audio, etc and stores it using CoreData. The problem is the location manager has to spin for a bit to get the best reading, and in that time the user could easily have navigated the UI to delete the object they've created and create a new one. In that case I'd want to interrupt any location services active for the deleted object.
Is a singleton the best pattern, keeping the active objects in an array and using @synchronize(object)...but running each in a different thread?
Or assigning the location manager as a transient property of the object and calling stopUpdatingLocation if it gets deleted?
Any thoughts? TIA...

I created a singleton for this - seems to work quite well

Object Style Manager issue in Captivate 6

Hi there,
I'm using a trial of Captivate 6 and am setting some styles using the Object Style Manager.
When I alter some preferences for the Rollover Caption (e.g. font size, alignment, caption background), the changes take effect on the Text Caption as well. I'd like the Text and Rollover captions to have different styles, is it possible to set this up inthe Style Manager?
Many Thanks

Hi,
This is happening as the Text caption, Rollover caption uses the same style as its default style. You can try creating a seperate style for the Rollover caption.
To do this,
1. Open Object Style manager.
2. Select 'RolloVer Caption' from Standard Objects>Rollover Caption, Click on the 'Clone' button
It Creates a new style with the name '[Default Caption Style]1
3. Click on the 'Set As Default' button.
This newly added style is set a s the Default for Rollover caption. Now wheneven you insert a Rollover caption, It gets inserted with the new Style and the Text caption gets inserted with the old style.
Hope this resolves the Issue.
Thanks,
Nimmy Sukumaran.

How does object memory management works?

Hi all,
I'm having a lot of problems with memory which seems not to be released when using objects (on Oracle 9i 9.0.1.1.1). I've prepared the following test:
create type t_test as object (
id number,
member function FunctTest(TBL IN CHAR, expand IN CHAR) return varchar2
) not final;
create or replace type body t_test as
MEMBER FUNCTION FunctTest(TBL IN CHAR, expand IN CHAR) RETURN varchar2 IS
BEGIN
return NULL;
END FunctTest;
end;
create or replace function FunctTest2(TBL IN CHAR, expand IN CHAR) RETURN varchar2 IS
BEGIN
return NULL;
END FunctTest2;
create table tab_test of t_test;
insert into tab_test values(1);
commit;
As you can see, I create a simple type with a member function, and a schema function who does the same (nothing, in this case). Then I call the two functions with the following PL/SQL blocks:
declare i integer;
t varchar2(4000);
ob t_test;
begin
select value(a) into ob from tab_test a where a.id=1;
for i in 1..5000 loop
select ob.FunctTest('A','S') into t from dual;
end loop;
end;
declare i integer;
t varchar2(4000);
begin
for i in 1..5000 loop
select FunctTest2('A','S') into t from dual;
end loop;
end;
If you run these blocks with Task Manager opened (I use W2000) on server console, you can see how memory usage grows very fast with the first block, and how it doesn't change with the second one.
The memory isn't released till the session is alive.
I'm trying to develop an object application, but these memory leaks are making me crazy.
Geoff, does release 2 solve some of these problems?
In particular, please, do I need to free by myself temporary objects (these ones referenced in PL/SQL blocks)? In which way? I haven't found anything about object memory management in documentation...
As always,
Thanks for any support to everybody.

Location Manager as Security Safeguard?

When OS X first came along, many of us were still using dial-up connections. When I installed Panther on my old blueberry iMac, a book I was reading suggested using the Location manager to create a so-called "offline" location so that the computer wasn't constantly attempting to dial up the internet when you didn't intend it to. (Obviously this "offline" setting wasn't a location at all but simply a way of turning off both of the "network port configurations": "Internal Modem" and "Built-in Ethernet" for this airportless machine.)
As I've upgraded to newer machines and software versions (currently the latest iMac and OS 10.5.6), I've kept on setting up the location manager this way (at present, "offline" renders "Ethernet" and Airport" inactive while letting "Firewire" and "Bluetooth" remain working). When I know I'm not going to be using my Mac (for instance while I'm not home or when I'm sleeping), I set the location back to "Offline." Yesterday, out of the blue, I suddenly wondered, "Why am I still doing this?" In the back of my mind, I guess I've been imagining a security benefit from this old "offline" habit: "offline" means my Mac is (at least for a time) not accessible to hackers via my cable modem, even though it is not shut down.
So (and pardon the long preface) my question is this: If I leave my computer running 24/7, as many who post here say they do, am I gaining anything by still creating an "offline" setting in Leopard and using it while I'm not on my Mac?
Before you reply, I should add that I've read many security-related posts in various forumns, and I've used the good advice. Specifically, I use a new Airport Extreme Base Station and have password-enabled WPA2 Personal encryption. I also utilize the obvious "General" security preferences: requiring a password to wake the computer from sleep or a screensaver, or to unlock a System Preferences pane; disabling automatic login; and enabling secure virtual memory. Furthermore, I have created separate user accounts (without administrative status) for general use, and I use a specific account with FileVault enabled for dealing with sensitive information. In addition, I have my firewall set to "Set access for specific services and applications," which at present only allows iTunes to communicate with an Airport Express (also with password WPA2 encryption) to use AirTunes. Lastly, I've enabled the "Stealth Mode." Well, I could go on: "Accept cookies...Only from sites you navigate to" in the Safari preferences. On and on. (Feel free to add to my list.) But, to return to my question, with all the aforementioned diligence, does such an "offline" setting in the Location manager serve any real purpose? Or am I just wasting my time?
In advance, thanks for taking the time to read such a long posting.

Not sure. I am using a JList to do a very similar thing to you and it works for me. They share same datamodel so I thought it would work for you.
try passing it to a textfield & seeing if that gives you the correct database entry.
 aName = new JTextField(20);
 aName.addActionListener(new DetailListener());
 String name = listModel.getElementAt(list.getSelectedIndex()).toString();
 aName.setText(name);
 class DetailListener implements ActionListener {
 public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
 try{
 details();
 } // end try
 catch (Exception exc){}
public void details(){
//.... your resultset here
}That way, you are dealing with a string & not an index. I am a novice at this & this may not be the 'correct' way to do it but I find it easier to deal with a string than an index. woks for me at the moment :)

WLSE Location Manager

I'm running WLSE 2.5 and the Location Manager performance is very sporadic. When I'm loading floor plans into the system, only about 25% of them will load. I've tried the different file formats (GIF, JPG, or PNG) and it doesn't seem to be any better.
I'll normally receive a message "no map image available" where the drawing preview should be or I'll receive "Cannot have a number larger than 1000" in the bottom left-hand corner.
Is there some magic secret on how to get this application to be useful? Have the newer versions 2.7 and 2.9 (upcoming) resolved these bugs?
Is there any way to decipher the information in the JAVA debug window?

Upgrading to the latest version is always recommended. For LM images, the key thing to remember is that the image size does matter. Recommended image size should be around 300kb and the resoluation should be not more than 1000x1000 pixels. The larger the image size the longer it takes to load it and more problems you may run into. Try reducing the image size to the above recommendations and then load it.

Location Manager and Time Zones Feature Request

I use my Powerbook for consulting - and travel extensively.
Location Manager handles my network setups, but, to the best of my knowledge, NOT the time zone information.
I'd like to have the option to set the time zone from my location manager, so that when I get to a customer site, and attach to the network, files, iCal, Mail, and other timestamped files are correctly in sync with the location.
I could probably write an automator script to do this, but it would be best supported directly in Location Manager.

WLSE Multiple instance of AP in Location Manager

Is there a way to have a an AP on multiple maps within Location manager?
We will have coverage across our Campus including some outside coverage. Besides the interior floor plans I'd like to have an overall coverage map of campus showing all APs (at least first floor). This requires the AP be placed on at least two maps.
Wondering if this might affect running the radio managment feature?
Another item, How many users can be accessing the WLSE simultaneously?

1) No

Why does location manager always reports kCLErrorLocationUnknown in simulator?

As the subject says the location manager is always sending the kCLErrorLocationUnknown error in the simulator. I've tried changing the accuracy and it didn't help.
Here is the code:
     locmanager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init];
     [locmanager setDelegate:self];
     [locmanager setDesiredAccuracy:kCLLocationAccuracyKilometer];
     [locmanager startUpdatingLocation];
This always calls didFailWithError with error kCLErrorLocationUnknown.
Any idea of what is wrong?

I read somewhere that apple doesn't use skyhook any more
Googling bears this out, but I can't find a way to manually update the Apple DB. Which must mean that Apple does it magically. Try allowing your iPhone to get a precise GPS position and then use it over your WiFi access point to download an app or song from the iTune store.

Hi Vikram and Lilybiri,
Thanks for your responses :-)
I'm working on Windows 8.1... I think that I may have found the issue... I was saving the file in a project directory rather than the default My Captivate Projects folder...
Perhaps Captivate was struggling to find resources it needed?
It hasn't crashed for a while now, though it is struggling - I'm working with a 54 slide PPT presentation that is linked and it takes a very long time to interact.
Sometimes it says that I've removed slides, which I haven't?
Best,
Christy.
