One suggestion to keep track of answered posts

Hi
Below the control panel we have...reward points and your question.
I request you to have a small link which shows the answers posted..
Assume if i answer some question and the questioner replied back with some detailed scenario......i have to go to the forums and check all the way to keep track of my answer...whether it solved the problem...or still pending.....
We cannot watch all the threads and no use of getting mails for every new change.......it could be useful in some cases.....
What i suggest is....below your questions( in the control panel) .......your posts/answers for open questions
Hope this makes sdn better
Regards
N Ganesh

Well the way I see this, there would be a problem be in case you have replied to lots of questions.
For instance, I make it a point to read every thread on the XI forum and also reply to most of them and there are many people like me on SDN. And so, if SDN was to provide us with links to the questions we have answered in the Control Panel ( just like the My Questions link) , it would mean a real lot number of links!
Doesn't make much sense to me , and so I guess watching the thread using Mails and occasionally logging to SDN and checking the status of your answer is a better option!
Just my 2 cents.

Program suggestions for keeping track of sales?

I do lots of online sales and am looking for a great program to keep track of everything for tax reasons and just to be more organized.
I would like the ability to input my cost on the product, and also put how much I sold it for and shipping prices, etc.
Also, the ability to put in receipts and other costs would be great too.
Any suggestions out there? I looked at QuickBooks, but it seems like that might not be for what I am trying to do.
-Thanks, Kyle

I understand excel is very basic
Very far from it. It is a highly sophisticated spreadsheet application, but it does require a high degree of familiarisation to get the most out of it.
FileMaker is a lot more intuitive (having originally been invented by Claris, an Apple subsidiary).
But whatever application you decide to go for, I would get a manual to go with it.

Need to Keep Track of Remote Dynamic IP Address for VNC Suggestions?

Hi,
So I need a method to keep track of my airport extremes IP address since I have a desktop not in reach I need to access daily and I'm worried that it might change of course, I know windows has IP Mailer that will send out new IP Addresses but I don't know of anything for mac. I can't get to the computer so I need a solution that doesn't require restarting the router : /. If anyone has a suggestion I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks.

Try http://www.no-ip.com/
They have a Mac client which sits inside your private network and updates the no-ip server database.

Keeping track of posted messages on this forum

I am having a problem keeping track of messages I post on this forum, as so many people are posting. Yesterday I posted a message and now I cant locate it!!!!! could you please mail to the following e-mail add to let me know how to re-locate posted messages (because I will probably not be able to relocate this message!!!!!!!!!!!!!) [email protected]
MANY THANKS

Look at the top right of the page, "Start watching topic". Click on that to put a watch on. Later you can just browse through all your watches. You can also set email replies whenever somebody posts to your thread (I don't use it, does that still work?).

To many different suggestions as to battery life of the MacPro. Is there one way to keep your battery life, do I keep it plugged in to AC or do I not?

To many different suggestions as to battery life of the MacPro. Is there one way to keep your battery life, do I keep it plugged in to AC or do I not?

To be honest, I would only plug it in when necessary. On my older 2009 MBP, I plug it in at night and it lasts me a solid 5-6 hours, if it needs to be plugged in during the day, I usually do it with about 2-3 hours left.

How to keep track of an iterator?

Hi everyone.
I'm having an issue trying to keep track of an interator in a tree map.
Basically my application is an address book, and it has the following button:
First Prev Next Last
So if they press the first button it will run the following code:
Collection c = treeMap.values();
        //obtain iterator for tree map
        Iterator iter = c.iterator();
        //get first item in the list
        Contact temp = (Contact)iter.next();This works fine.
But now I'm trying to get the Last element in the tree and then assign a "global" iterator to it, infact all the buttons should have an iterator that will keep track of where the current element is...and thats where I'm having problems with.
So if I get the first element when someone presses the first button, I would like to now assign an iterator to that position, so if someone presses the Next button, I would just do iter.next(); and then display the information .
The problem is though, I also need to go back 1 element if the user presses the Previous button...is there a way to go forward and backward with an iterator?
I have an internal iterator keeping track of things but I get an error, like for example:
Collection c = treeMap.values();
         int count = 0;
        //obtain iterator for tree map
        Iterator iter = c.iterator();
        while(iter.hasNext() && count < treeMap.size()-1)
            count++;
            iter.next();
        trackIter = iter.next();trackIter = iter.next();
I want trackIter to point to whatever iter.next() is pointing at, which in this case, is the last element in the list but I get an error here saying:
found : java.lang.Object
required: java.util.Iterator
trackIter = iter.next();
Any ideas?
Thanks

First of all your bug.
Iterators return Objects.
What kind of object it returns depends on what you were shoving into the Map. If you shoved a Dog into the map, then the iterator returns the Dog, but the Iterator and the Collection only knows that it is an Object, not that it is a Dog. Your code that needed to get a Dog back, needs to cast the result returned by the iterator as a Dog
trackItem = (Dog) iter.next();
However, before you haul off and fix your code, twould be best to fix your design. Your question, "is there a way to go forward and backward with an iterator?" is a good question. Before I tell you the answer, let me ask you a question? What are you going to do if the answer is "NO - you can't go forward and backward"
I mean, it's OK to hack and slash around, trying this and that, but generally it would be good to know the answer to that question BEFORE you write a bunch of code involving iterators, because when you find out that you CAN'T go both forward and backwards with an iterator, what are you gonna do. Are you going to leave part of the design working one way, using iterators for going next and then some totally different mechanism to go the other way? Of course you could do that, but that is not really how one arrives at good design, by first hacking out one feature until you can get it working and then turning you attention to the next and hacking out a different bunch of code.
Observe that Collections can be converted to Arrays and that Arrays have indicies and moving forward and backward in an array is a simple matter of incrementing or decrementing an integer and testing if you fell of the end. Also arrays, having no particular order restrictions can be sorted, or re-ordered any way that you like. How much easier your problem would be if only you had an array instead of a Collection.
Don't take the criticism of your design the wrong way. I actually like the idea of using something like an iterator for your buttons, but the thing you are using is not really an iterator. As you said it must go both ways. It is really more like a text cursor where you can advance forward and backwards over a list. So build a Cursor class that you can hand an array. Give it routines like, first(), last(), mid(), stepForward(), stepBack(), getCurrent(), getIndex(), setIndex().
And then you ask yourself, "before I write this code - let me see if someone has already written it." you look up Cursor in the API. Nope, there is a cursor class, but it is for crossHair cursors and the like. Then you ask yourself, "What else could they have called this?" How about ListIterator. Bingo - there you are, an interface class that has hasNext, hasPrevious, ... But it is only an interface. It doesn't do anything. What kind of class would implement this interface? Maybe List, so you look up List. Drat, it is some disgusting awt component. Oh wait, there's another interface, List, and there on the "All known Implementing Classes" you see LinkedList, ArrayList and others.
Cool. You can reduce a collection to an array, if you could get an array into one of these list types, you could have your interface all built for you and everything, or if it isn't exactly what you want, no big deal, you already know the interface you need, you can just build it, whatever reduces your effort.
See how it works? And just for the record, I didn't know about ListIterators, when I started typing this. But I know a design principle that helped me find it. I don't grab a component that I know and see if I can make the system work with the thing that I know. Instead I think of what I want it to do, try to design the interface for what I want it to do and then, once I know what I want from a structural standpoint, I start groveling around to see if that thing already exists.
You were almost there. When you asked if an Iterator goes both forwards and backwards. And the answer is, "No"
I see that others have posted before I finished writing this tome. Reversing the array and creating an iterator for that list will not get you the behavior that you are in some state, at some place in the list, from which you can go either forward or backwards. It just gets you a way to go backwards through the list.
On the assumption that you are a student attempting to learn something, I would suggest that you actually do both approaches. Using the ListIterator approach is what you would do in a production environment (I just need this one behavior and it already exists over here) but you will probably learn more if you implement your own cursor class as I described above. The point is that you have a chunk of functionality, knowing where you are in a list and being able to step either forward or backward, that you want to achieve. The way that you get some chunk of functionality is that you design and build a class that lets you get that functionality. Iterator is NOT that class.

Trying to keep track of how many objects I create

Hello everyone I'm trying to keep track of how many message objects I created and Assign them to a data member.
Right now it assigns all the Message objects the same number at the end which is 3. I wanted it to assign 1 to the first object it create, 2 for the 2nd, and 3 for the 3rd.
here's a small version of my code:
package ss;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Iterator;
public class MainTest {
     public static void main(String [] args)
          Message msg = null;
          ArrayList<Message> msgList = new ArrayList<Message>();
          for(int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
               msg = new Message();
               msgList.add(msg);
          System.out.println(msgList);
package ss;
//this class will hold the Event/Message
import java.util.List;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Set;
import java.util.Iterator;
public class Message {
     //these are datamembers that will be used during
     //the sending of the message to the reciever
     //PacketID should be incremented each time a new message is created
     static int PacketID = 0;
     Message()
          PacketID +=1;
     public String toString() {
          return("PacketID: " + this.PacketID
                    + "\n");
}output:
[PacketID: 3
, PacketID: 3
, PacketID: 3
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks!

Thanks BigDaddyLovehandles,
Well there's the problem, I just posted a simpler problem to a bigger one. So I am keeping them in a collection as you can see below.
I'm keeping these message stored in a multi map, and it is multi-threaded. Everytime a user connects to my server I create a new thread, and start adding the "messages" to the database.
But I must have a packetID, meaning every new message created I need to assign that number to the message object.
I also see a problem with this like you said, its not thread safe, if 2 clients connect to the server, and both send me events, there are going to be 2 different maps, copying events from the client and storing them in their own seperate databases.
This might not be a problem because after I get the events on each thread, i send them to another server for processing.
Here's an example of what my database looks like that stores the messages:
//this class should store all the Messages or "Events" and
//you can access them based on their Serial key.
public class MessageDB {
     //database to hold the information
     //     holds the Alerts/messages
     Map<String, List<Message>> AlertMap;
     //Constructor
     MessageDB() {
          AlertMap = new HashMap<String, List<Message>>();
     //print, outputs the contents of the hashMap
     public void print() {
          //want to print out the Key and all the Messages
          //associated with that key
          //print, outputs the contents of the hashMap
               for (String key : AlertMap.keySet())
                    System.out.println("\n\nSerial (key): " + key
                              + "\nValues in Map: \n" + AlertMap.get(key));
     void add(Message msg) {
          //getting the position of the List by EntityID if avaiable
          List<Message> AlertList = AlertMap.get(msg.Serial);
          //checking to see if there is a unique Key already in the Map.
          if (AlertList == null) {
               //if there isnt a key in the map, add a new key, and a new List mapping
               //to the key EntityID;
               AlertList = new ArrayList<Message>();
               AlertMap.put(msg.Serial, AlertList);
               AlertList.add(msg);
          } else {
               //adding message to List
               AlertList.add(msg);
     }Any suggestions on what I can to number all these messages and it will be thread safe?

Looking for an application to keep track of things

Again, forgive me, for I am new to the BB world.
I have a Palm Zire that I use to keep track of, among other things, all the books I've read - nothing worse that buying a book for the second or third time! I use the Palm desktop contacts list, filter by "Books", the by author keep track of the titles in the note field.
Can anyone recommend a BB application to keep track of this for me. One of the reasons I got this phone was so I wouldn't to carry my PDA and phone with me when shopping.
Thanks a million

Hi there!
For me, I use contact items...I have a whole batch of them that start with "Note" and contain tons of things. One is my weekly shopping list. Another is a list of gift ideas for folks. And many many other things. I like using Contacts as I can not only search them, but they replicate to my desktop PIM (for me, via BES/Exchange) and I can even edit them in my PIM and they wind up on my BB. Handy, IMHO!
Hope that helps!

Keeping track of oracle E-Business Suite Customization(Personalization/Cus)

Hi,
I am preparing a document to keep track of all the customizations done an oracle E-Business Suite.
This will be useful for the team during upgrade to higher versions to track down the customization.
Kindly let me know what are the things we should keep in this document related to customization.
These are the things comes to my mind for now for each customization done.
- Application Area
- Form/Report/jsp page
- table/plsql/view/sql
- Descripton
- Changed behavior
- etc ( Please, post some more things to be taken care. With your sharing it can be a standard document to follow for any customization)
Your participation is highly appriciated.
Thanks

Hi,
I can also suggest you to use Change Request Management in this regard. You can use the standard Change Request Form for this purpose.
You can refer the following formats for developing the form,
[Scope Change Request Form|http://www.scribd.com/doc/2218577/Scope-Change-Request-Form]
[Download Change Request Form|http://www.gantthead.com/deliverables/Change-Request-Form.html]

Keeping track of multiple projects

I have an 84min movie I made years ago and want to edit a 3min trailer and a longer 12min trailer from footage I captured via the original VHS 4:3 transfer to mini-DV. I want to maintain the original 4:3 transfer but add 16:9 mattes to the two trailers.
My concern is how to keep track of the various versions I want to make. I have already created a New Project for the full 84 min 4:3 and created a 2nd New Project that I put a 16:9 matte over. Framing is quite good too.
I plan to make new projects for each version unless there's an easier way to keep track of everything. Nesting is also a consideration but I've never really done that before.
Any comments, suggestions, warnings, etc. greatly appreciated.

Not sure I understand what's wrong with the way you are doing it now.... creating new projects for each change? Or you could have one project with different sequences for each change.... Should be simple to keep track of things as long as you come up with a naming convention that works for you and then stick to it.

LR workflow for keeping track of copyright submissions?

Instead of reinventing the wheel, I thought I'd ask here first.
I have around 8,000 images in a smart collection of photos taken between Jan 1, 2010 and March 31, 2010. I've added my copyright info into the metadata and am in the process of exporting a 700px image of each image to a 1st_qtr2010_copyright folder on my hard drive before submitting them.
I am considering adding these phrases to the Keywords into the original raw images: "copyrighted" and "submitted April 16, 2010". In the future, I should be able to search for all "copyrighted" images or a refinded search for any "submitted..." group. And when the certificate is returned for the images, I'd add one more keyword like "© completed July 20, 2010" and/or the copyright document number.
I guess the target is to figure out how to keep track of the images already submitted, the ones officially copyrighted, and any images still needing the copyright submissions.(images that do not contain "copyrighted")
If anyone here has a tried and tested method or workflow using Lightroom, I'd love to hear them before I go any further.
Thanks in advance,
M. Jackson

Sean and Jao,
I found the tick box now.
I create a Keyword Set called something like "Private Keywords" and inclued the keyword "copyrighted" (with the boxes unchecked). I select one or more images, then click the copyrighted keyword in the list? I think I got it. I then add additional Private Keywords to my set and use them as needed. Right?
Going back to my original question, I am looking for help with a workflow suggestion to help keep track of submissions to the copyright office. I see the option in LR to assign either Unknown, Copyrighted, or Public Domain in the Metadata. So, I import them into LR as unknown until I prepare the jpgs for uploading, at which point, I change all of the original RAW images to Copyrighted. At the point of uploading and payment, the images are copyrighted for most purposes, but there is still the final step of getting the certificate from the copyright office a few months later. I'd like to find all the ones submitted in that group and assign a new Private Keyword that associates the registration number and maybe date with the photos in that group.
Unless I am missing more features in LR, assigning appropriate keywords would be necessary to keep track of the whole process. Keeping some of them private makes a lot of sense. If I were to run a copyright batch every few weeks, it would be easy to visualize eight or nine "in progress" copyright submission groups waiting for the final certificates.
Any additional advice would be appreciated.

IPod and car stereo. Will it keep track of the play count?

I'm currently shopping around for a head unit for my car. I was just hoping someone could tell me whether or not the iPod still keeps track of play count when connected through a USB cable to the car stereo. I'm only wondering because I wasn't sure if this situation is similar to hooking and iPod to an XBOX 360 through the USB cable (which doesn't keep track of play count). If someone could please tell me what models do and don't keep track of play count, I'd really like to know. I'm particularly interested in the Alpine iDA-X305 so if someone could let me know about that one specifically, I'd really appreciate it.
Thank you for reading my post, and I appreciate any and all help given.

Kenichi Watanabe wrote:
I don't think an car audio device would be smart enough to set up a connection that is like a computer's connection to an iPod. When I use my dumb docking speaker, the play count is kept for the next sync with my Mac.
So do you think it just has to do with the fact that an Xbox 360 is pretty much a computer, therefore the iPod reads the connection as though it was a connection to a computer?

Keeping track of total call time within current mo...

My new phone account has limited calltime included.. how can I keep track of the total time on outgoing calls in a given month? ( N8 )

Would you prefer a third party app or an inbuilt one? You can use the call log option on your phone, and check the "dialled numbers" timer. You would see how many minutes you have used. You can just clear these counters at the end of each month.
For third party app, you can try this: http://store.ovi.com/content/132391

How to register and keep track on item packaging during transactions

Hi,
I have items which I receive in inventory under different packaging. I want that when I receive or issue it from the warehouse, I keep track also on the packaging that the transaction is done.
E.g. Oil for vehicle engine:
Item parameters: "10x40"
Manufacturer: Elf
I receive:
100 liters, 100 pieces, package: 1 liter.
500 liter, 100 pieces, package: 5 liter.
I want to know that I have in total 600 liters of Oil 10x40 of manufacturer Elf and from the other hand I want to know how many pieces of 1 liter and how many of 5 liters I have.
Please help me to configure this in INV module.
Thank you.

Hi Glen,
Thanks heaps for your reply! Sorry I am so slow to implement it, send it to my client, and then realise it is borked still! I went with the storing the ICalUid (which I think IS the CleanGlobalObjectId you mentioned after I dissected the blogs you
posted) in my database. I stored the ICalUid of the appointment on the server, and the ICalUid of the one I created on the client in it's SQLCE database. This allowed me to find one from the other for updates and deletes or so I thought. Updates
are fine. But I still cannot find the deleted appointment on the server, or get enough info from the server, to find the right item to delete on the client. I can no longer access the ICalUid of the appointment on the server because first I have
to find the appointment in deleteditems or recoverabledeletions folder to get the ICalUid (or CleanGlobalObjectId). SyncFolderItems returns the subject but not startdate so I cannot search in deleted etc using that combo and I don't feel subject alone
will be reliable enough at all. So, what you proposed works beautifully, but not for my initial problem, which was deleting.
Maybe this is microsoft fault but SyncFolderItems does not seem to return enough info to perform an accurate delete of an item. If it helps at all I am following this example: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/exchange/ee693003(v=exchg.80).aspx but
of course the good folks at MS haven't filled in the important bits!

Is it possible to keep track of unused photos?

Hello all,
My wife designs photo books in InDesign. She places all the photos that she is going to use for a book in a folder. Than one by one she places them in different page layouts.
The problem is that most of the time she is having difficulty in keeping track of which photos are used and if she left any photo missing during the designing process.
She can only check if she used all the photos at the end of the process when she thinks she placed all the photos, she checks the number of links from the links panel. If the number of links does not match the number of photos then she is in trouble because she has to go back, find the missing photo and place it in the relevant page. It is quite difficult when your layout is fixed and you have to move each photo forward to insert the missing photo in between.
Do you suggest any solution to keep track of unused photos in a folder?
Regards
Alper

If you select links in the Links panel, Copy Info for Selected Links on the Links panel menu, then paste into a text frame. You'll see something like this:
Name          Status          Page
1980-01-05 18.23.43.jpg          OK          1
1980-01-05 18.23.53.jpg          OK          1
1980-01-05 18.24.04.jpg          OK          1
In ID, there are tabs between the items.
If the graphics are placed in anchored frames in a text flow that's threaded across all pages, it's easy to insert a missing graphic between existing graphics. Depending on the size of the graphic and the size of the text frame it's anchored in, inserted graphics might flow automatically to the next page, or you might need to set the paragraph style that contains the anchored frames to start in a new frame or on a new page. With Preferences > Type > Smart Text Reflow enabled, InDesign generates new pages as needed.
Search Google for terms like "InDesign Smart Text Reflow," "InDesign anchored frames," "InDesign threading text," "InDesign flowing text," without quotes for details.
