I want a classic book to read, the documentation is somewhat "not as funny" :)Now this is like asking which coffee is the best one, as I like cappuccino so I would take its name , someone else may say Black Coffee. I can only suggest the ones which I have bought and read and as I have bought them, surely I consider them the best ;-) .
You should have get these following books in teh starting and finish them before reading any other one ,

  • What is the best Path for a J2EE developer with oracle?

    Hi,
    I am a J2EE developer, for the time being I work at a Commercial Bank as an enterprise application developer. I have learnt java when I was following a local IT diploma and with the help of books, works at my working place and the internet , today I am developing J2EE applications with JSP,Servlets,JSF2.0,EJB3.0 and third party JSF libraries etc. (I am also developing softwares using other programing languages such as Asp.net, C#.net, WPF etc, but I prefer to be in the java path). Other than that, I'm also working as the UI designer of most of our applications.
    I have those skills and practice after working for 4 years as a web/enterprise application developer & a UI designer, but now I have to focus on some paper qualifications and hence I am doing BCS.
    Now I want to be a java professional in Oracle's path, and I need to know what is the best path I can select to move with Oracle. I finished my classes of SCJP , but didn't do the exams as there were some rumors that Oracle will dump those exams in the future. I am interested in Oracle university, but I am unable to even think about it as I live in Sri Lanka and don't have that much of financial wealth to go USA and join.
    So I really appreciate if any Oracle professional could suggest me the best educational path according to what I mentioned about my technical and career background. Because I have a dream to join Oracle one day as an employee and being a good contributer to the same forum, which I am getting helps today!
    Thanks!!!

    As you can see on our website, Oracle did not retire the Java certifications. You can browse through the available certifications and hopefully help to determine your path.
    http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=140
    SCJP has now become Oracle Certified Professional Java Programmer. You can find more info on those exams on our website here: http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=320.
    Regarding training, perhaps live virtual training would be an option for you. You can find more information at http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=233.

  • What do i need to connect my mac book pro to the tv with the thunderbolt on the mac to hdmi? I have the newest macbook pro. I'm wanting to have the best picture I can get from my 1080p tv. thanks

    what do i need to connect my mac book pro to the tv with the mac's thunderbolt port to hdmi? I have the newest macbook pro. I'm wanting to have the best picture I can get from my 1080p tv. thanks

    Thanks Community! I solved the problem. In fact it was not a problem but lack of understanding. These guys at Apple are way ahead in thir thinking. I will try to explain as short as I can.
    In Lion, ihe Prefferences/Display show only two choices: 6-7 steps of resolution and some color tab. No two screens, no two display to overlap, nothing for us to do. "That was the problem"! Everything is automatic.
    When I connected the HDMI cable to the Miniport into a T-bolt slot, the TV screen showed the "spiral galaxy" how Zyriab is calling it. In fact he gave me the best clue. That shows the connection is good. But where is the Mac Book image?
    You have to drag it to the right out of the Mac Book display area, and "voila!" it will continue on the TV screen. The same with the mouse pointer, push it out ofthe Mac Book display area and you see it on the TV sreen. Good image, you can keep the max resolution, etc. The sound is still on the Book's speakers. I have to figure that out.
    Thank everybody, especialy Zyriab, ne was the closest.
    High regards to everybody

  • What is the Best way To Copy and paste data from 1 book to another

     I have 18 sheets in 5 different books that I want to extract data from specific cells.  What is the best way to do this?  Example:  1 sheet is called Numbers E-O1 data in 13:WXYZ. The data updates and moves up 1 row every time I enter
    a new number. So let's say I enter the number 12. Through a lot of calculations the output goes in 13:WXYZ. To what I call a counter which is a 4 digit number.  Anyways, how can I send that 4 digit number to a totally different sheet?  To bullet
    what I'm talking about
    data in cells Row 13:WXYZ in book called Numbers sheet E-O1
    send data to book called "Vortex Numbers" Sheet E-O row 2001:CDEF
    What formula or Macro can I use to make this work?
    thank you!

    Hello Larbec,
    Syntax:
    '[BookName]SheetName'!Range
    Enter in cell  2001:CDEF:
    ='[Numbers]E-O1'!13:WXYZ
    This assumes that the file is open in Excel. Otherwise you need to add the path:
    'ThePath[BookName]SheetName'!Range
    Best regards George

  • Hi All, We are in to Release 11.5.10.2.There is a specific requirement to Prevent users from creating Manual Sales Orders in oracle and yet users should be able to book the Sales Orders Imported from CRM system into Orcale.Please advise.

    Hi All, We are in to Release 11.5.10.2.There is a specific requirement to Prevent users from creating Manual Sales Orders in Oracle and  yet users should be able to book the Sales Orders Imported from CRM system into Orcale.Please advise.

    Thanks for your advise.
    However, I missed to mention that we have two set of users  One is for Finished Goods and another for Spares.
    Only Spares users need to be prevented from creating Direct/Manual Sales Orders in Oracle.
    As you suggested, if this will be done at Form level, that may Disallow FG users also to create Manula Sales Orders which should not be the case.
    Further, I tried to test one scenario through Processing Constraints but it did not work.

  • What's the best overall solution for managing books and eBooks?

    I have a lot of eBooks (in .mobi and PDF format). I'd like to find a solution (software/system/scheme) such that
    1) The actual content syncs to several devices (Mac, iPad, iPhone) and can be read even when network is not present.
    2) There is a searchable, convenient database of what books are there.
    3) The database can be added to by barcode scanning the ISBN tag
    4) Some entries in the database are linked to full content. That is, I'd enter books that I have in electronic format, but also books from my library that exist only in paper form.
    I'm looking for a total solution to manage all my books - list them all, plus enable ready access to the content for the ones I have. I'd like to have it sync to several devices. What's the best system - anyone have it set up like this? What's the best reader, database app, and way to hang it all together (with iTunes?). Thanks in advance,
    Mike

    I am currently using WD 2TB Thunderbolt hard drive for my iTunes, which i love and is works great.  i am connected directly to my Mac Book Pro. I am running low on Memory and thinking of buying a bigger Hard drive.  My question is should I buy 6TB thunderbolt HD or 6TB NAS drive to work solely for iTunes.  I have home sharing enabled for my Apple TV 
    I also have my time capsule connected just as back up only.   

  • What's the best approach for handeling about 1300 connections in Oracle.

    What's the best approach for handling about 1300 connections in Oracle 9i/10g through a Java application?
    1.Using separate schema s for various type users(We can store only relevant data with a particular schema.     Then No. of records per table can be reduced by replicating tables but we have to maintain all data with a another schema     Then we need update two schema s for a given session.Because we maintain separate scheama for a one user and another schema for all data and then there may be Updating problems)
    OR
    2. Using single schema for all users.
    Note: All users may access the same tables and there may be lot of records than previous case.
    What is the Best case.
    Please give Your valuable ideas

    It is a true but i want a solution from you all.I want you to tell me how to fix my friends car.

  • I Need to build a database/booking and dispatch system that intergrates with iCal, Address Book and all Apple device's What would be the best Way.

    Hi
    Can anyone give me some useful information on the best ways to design and build a database/booking & dispatch system that can be intergrated through ical, address book and available on my macbook, ipad & iphone and all accessed through icloud.
    I started my own chauffuer Service a year ago as an independent. it's becoming a massive bore that most of my time is spent taking down information, checking if i am available for clients and with alot of diary checking and repeatative entries and email ping pong and invoicing, what i want to do is concerntrate on advertising and marketing and using my time off for R & R
    What i would like to do is access my information in an app and automate most of the processes like
    assigning the job to the client with intergration through iCal and Address Book
    be able to email confirmation through mail with an invoice produced through numbers or excel
    payment is already done through payleven mobile and must be done in person so i'd rather keep that seperate to all processes apart from a tick box to say it has been paid for.
    I have been looking at all options  FileMaker, Bento, Automator, Apple Script. to be frank im no expert and am a little confused as to what to do any advice would be greatly recieved.

    Hi,
    I would suggest that is going to be an involved and complex process.
    I would personally look into some of the invoicing and time scheduling software available and see if any fit your needs.
    Take a look here: http://www.tuaw.com/2008/07/30/app-roundup-timekeeping-and-billing/
    and here: http://www.tuaw.com/2008/07/31/app-roundup-timekeeping-and-billing-part-ii-the-q uickening/

  • What is the best external hard drive for the MAC Book Pro with Retina?

    What is the best external hard drive for the MAC Book Pro with Retina?
    I was looking at WD MY PASSPORT FOR MAC and Toshiba. I want something that will work best with time capsule! Suggestions on the best external hard drive would be greatly appreciated!!!

    A Time Machine backup drive should be substantially larger than the system drive.  If you have a 128 or 256 GB SSD then a 1 TB drive will suffice.  If you have a 512 GB SSD then a 2 TB drive will suffice.  As leroydouglas indicated any brand other than WD will do.
    For 1 TB drives PlotinusVeritas gives some great suggestions here:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5602141?tstart=0
    A 2 TB drive sold by Apple:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/H9378ZM/A/lacie-2tb-usb-30-porsche-design-p923 3-desktop-hard-drive
    $130
    A 2 TB drive just as good for only $92.
