Powerbuilder and GIT

Is any one know how to integrate PowerBuilder with GIT source control? Under the source control system dropdown I don't see GIT.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Senthil

I assume we're talking about Classic, not the .Net IDE.
You would need a bridge product that converts the MSSCCI calls that the PowerBuilder Classic IDE makes into Git calls, similar to what PushOK does for SVN or CVS. PushOK makes a GIT bridge as well, but I don't have direct experience with it:

MedlockDustin,
for TextMate, you’ll need to download TextMate 2.0 alpha, since earlier versions of TextMate aren’t supported on Mavericks. The file will be named “nightly”; save it to your desktop. Once the “nightly” file has finished downloading, rename it to “TextMate.app.tar.bz2” — that will give it the “BZ” icon on your desktop. Once it’s been renamed, you can double-click on it, and TextMate.app will appear on your desktop. Use your administrative login to move TextMate.app to your Applications folder.
Regarding the “unidentified developer” message displayed by trying to open git 1.8.4.2, please refer to this Apple page for the workaround.

[SOLVED] urxvt and Git/SVN commit problem

I have a problem where SVN and Git cant see that the EDITOR variable is set on my system when I go to make a commit, they both error out because the EDITOR variable (as well as other variables are blank). This is the error that I get from SVN:
┌─(vendion@Tyre Fri, 02 Sep 11)───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────(08:48)──┘
└─(/srv/http/juice38)─> sudo svn ci
svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: Could not use external editor to fetch log message; consider setting the $SVN_EDITOR environment variable or using the --message (-m) or --file (-F) options
svn: None of the environment variables SVN_EDITOR, VISUAL or EDITOR are set, and no 'editor-cmd' run-time configuration option was found

Git acts the same way but with its own error message (sorry don't have an example of this currently), is there a way to fix this so that Git and SVN will see that I do have an EDITOR set and use it with out having to change terminals (works fine in xterm...)

Sorry over looked that, when I run sudo to check the EDITOR variable it also has vim set

Powerbuilder and Java

On a wider note I'm very surprised that Java hasn't catered for extending base classes and still be able to keep the inheritance chain. If I compare this with Powerbuilder for a second, their Foundation Classes all come with an empty extension object between all their pre-defined classes. This would be the same in Java as having:
Object
|
Object extension (empty)
|
Component (changed to have Object extension as ancestor)
|
Component extension (empty)
|
TextComponent (changed to have Component extension as ancestor)
|
etc, etc.
The reason I bring up the comparison is I was wondering if any Third Party Vendors have done a similar thing with Java, i.e. not just created a series of extension objects but INSERTED objects between the higher classes?
Is there such a thing to the best of anyone's knowledge or does everyone go down a route similar to the service one I've discussed above?

Well, for one thing, this wreak havoc on code code reusability. For example, if I create a program similar to Eclipse and allow plug in components, if you have altered the heirarchy of classes, how does that impact my code? Wht if we have both done this? Who wins?
I do agree that there is a real issue here. It's definitely a huge pain to have to extend every subclass of Component to add a little functionality. What's worse is that you can't even create a subinterface of a concrete class meaning that you can't create a MyComponent and have all your Components implement it.
I think Component should have been an interface. Other people disagree and I respect that but I think it really makes things difficult. Then all the current concrete classes would just implement these classes. Then each sub-class would implement a subinterface and use the decorator patter to get the effect you are after.
For example:
Component <--- BasicComponent
   ^               ^       ^
   |               |       |
   |<--Label<--BasicLabel |
   |                       |
Button <--------------BasicButtonNow you could create your own classes like so (or keep going with decorators):
MyButton extends BasicButton
    MyButton()
       super(new BasicComponent());
MyLabel extends BasicLabel
    MyLabel()
       super(new BasicComponent());
}Then down the road you want to implement a simple change in all Component behavior:
class MyComponent extends BasicComponent
   // blah blah blah
MyButton extends BasicButton
    MyButton()
       super(new MyComponent());
MyLabel extends BasicLabel
    MyLabel()
       super(new MyComponent());
}

[solved] makepkg -o and GIT-package

makepkg -o / --nobuild
This command downloads and extracts files only.
But in case of a PKGBUILD which clones the src from a GIT-repository the behavior is different (it downloads nothing).
Do you think I should write a bugreport? Or is there another command I don't know?
Last edited by Radioactiveman (2011-09-12 20:23:12)

I think that that's behaving as expected, all of the -git PKGBUILDs I've seen pull the source from git inside the build() function which means it would take a change to makepkg and a rewrite of all the PKGBUILDs which pull from any kind of VCS for it to be possible to do what you want.

Powerbuilder and SAP Solution Manager

Hello,
Do you know if SAP Solution Manager supports Powerbuilder? or, what SAP product can I use to complement powerbuilder through the entire development cycle of a system, including stress tests?
Thanks in advance!
Isaac Cabrera

Hi there,
I think my question is not clear
I already installed Solman and its running. And we used the default name for the MSSQL Instance.
My question is: During the installation of SAP ECC 5.0. this means:
1) Installation of MSSQL Instance
2) Installation of ECC 5.0 Software
by the installation of the MSQL Instance I get the question if I want to use default name for the DB instance (which is not possible because its already used for DB instance for Solman instance) or another SID.
And my question: Is it ok to use another SID? (Think that DB name and SAPSID should be the same for SAP).
if yes, why its saying that SAP recommend default? Does this will make me problem with SAP later?
This is what is making me afraid and that why I am trying to get a help to be sure that this is possible and will not make any problems for SAP.
I hope its clear now
Best regards

PowerBuilder and Tux 8 - Hight CPU

Running PowerBuilder 6.05 application with Tux 8.0 w/s on Citrix
Cause the Citrix to have CPU peaks /spikes
Any Idea what might be the issue?

Hmmm... not sure what the problem could be.
Spotify runs fine on my mac.
Try a clean reinstall of Spotify to see if this fixes the problem:
Advanced method:
https://support.spotify.com/learn-more/faq/#!/article/reinstallation-of-spotify
Easy method:
Download this free app cleaner. It's super easy. Download button is on the right side
http://www.freemacsoft.net/appcleaner/
When you open up the app, click the search icon and search for Spotify and it will automatically find and delete all files on your computer related to Spotify.
I use it all the time and it's a really great tool. If you ever decide to uninstall an app, the best way is to use this tool.
After that, download and reinstall Spotify.

Dreamweaver CS5 and GIT... is it possible?

My web development company would like to use GIT to handle file versioning since the programming community at large seems to be the recommending GIT instead of SVN. What is the best way to utilize GIT in Dreamweaver CS5? Is the only option to use this Dreamweaver GIT extension? Are there any other methods?

Funnily enough the Subweaver extension integrates TortoiseSVN/GIT into Dreamweaver so Integrating Versions wouldn't really be a "one up".
And please, stop for a second, consider what you read, remove that 'I've read Steve Jobs mantra' rod from up your arse; I wasn't suggesting that using a terminal was the be all and end all, or the optimal solution, I merely suggested that considering the current implementation in CS5+ of SVN is grindingly slow, it wouldn't kill you to learn the basics of a few of these tools.
**** if you don't understand "working path", which is a very basic term used in most IDEs and every version control system since CVS, real integration is probably going to be too complicated. How do you handle JavaScript, HTML, XML, XSD, XSLT, CSS1/2/3, Cross Browser Development, aka THE JOB, if your terrified of actually having to learn the terminology of the tools of the trade. If its was some free for all for every idiot in the world with no modicum of intelligence required, it would be paid on par with most admin jobs.
If you can live without the "click to edit style" spoon-fed, WYSIWYG, drag and drop development system that Dreamweaver is, look at the tools JetBrains creates like Webstorm, that has fully integrated version control, or Aptana which is based on Eclipse and supports every version control system to pop into life in the last 19 years; Coda which has all of the same toys; or any of the other hundreds of tools out there with version control integrated.
You could even move to GIT for development and use SVN as a central repository; and the tools are fricking free, try http://www.sourcetreeapp.com/ It will let you work in a "git" fashion locally and push your changes to SVN. Unfortunately though every tool requires some learning, its life, and no developer/designer/ux muppet is going to change source control into something where you just hit a big frickin button that says STORE-THE-CHANGES and provide you with no way of working on what's happened, how its changed, commit messages, branching.
Adobe could pull their finger out and fix dreamweaver, drop masses of the slow, badly built architecture they inherited and never bothered to change, but its unlikely; and considering the competitive nature of the web design and development industry I simply put it to you to Man/Women up and take some responsibility to learn more of the tools of your trade, the industry as a whole isn't going to slow down evolving in order to dumb everything down to a microsoft paperclip "so your trying to version a file" wizard system and nor-should it.

CFBuilder , EGit, and Git Hub

Hi,
I'm trying to use CF Builder with either of the DVCS options (git or Mercurial). Have been trying github with the EGit Eclipse plugin, but can't seem to get it working. Anyone have experience with this?
Thanks!
Tim

I'm in the same boat. Does anyone have any experience getting EGit to work with CFBuilder. I've having an issue the the "AuthFail" when making a clone of my repository!

Compiz and git

This might be an odd question as I'm a complete n00b to Arch and package managers though I've been using Slackware and FreeBSD for years (so I can find my way around the Arch system without too much difficulty).
basically I've got Compiz Fusion all set up and running well, but I want to install a few more plug ins which wasn't included with the package pacman pulled (as per the instructions here: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Compiz_Fusion )
ones like the unsupported bits.
would these be in any additional repositories? (and if so how do i configure pacman to pick them up?) or can i just download the tar balls and build them myself in the same method i would on my Slackware system?

Do know about the Arch User Repository (AUR)? The link is there in the top right of the page.
There's a package in the AUR called: compiz-fusion-plugins-unsupport. If you don't
have that installed yet, it may contain the plugins you're looking for. You can download
the PKGBUILD from the AUR, build the package with makepkg, and then install
with pacman -U YOURPKG.pkg.tar.gz.
You can also investigate yaourt and other tools that search and build directly from AUR.

Peggy,
1) Do you have experience with PowerBuilder and Forte' applications running at
the same time on the same (laptop) computer? Here I'm thinking
about any potential resource constraints? Memory Requirements?As log as you are using Win95 or NT you should not be concerned about WIN-resources. Memory depends more on what your 2 tier PB application requires than what your Forté would require.

Remote rejected error with git

I'm trying to get a git public repository installed on server and can't seem to push an update.
I have my server local user with ssh access and file transfers seem to go fine. I have git 1.6.0.4 installed on both development iMac PPC (10.5.5) and server Intel (10.5.5). I included git-shell path in /etc/shells and /etc/shells.personal.
The public repository was deposited on an external drive with scp and everything looks good. Permissions to the files are in place. Following git installation to /usr/local, I added /usr/local/libexec/git-core to the $PATH variable.
I even chmoded the hooks files for execution.
However, when I make a change on the development side and then commit, followed by a push to the server side I get
"Compressing 3 objects. Done
Writing 5 objects. Done
Output:
Counting objects: 9, done.
Total 5 (delta 3), reused 3 (delta 2)
fatal: exec unpack-objects failed.
error: unpack failed: unpacker exited with error code
To server:/Volumes/dir.git
! [remote rejected] master -> master (n/a (unpacker error))
error: failed to push some refs to 'server:/Volumes/dir.git'"
All my google efforts produced linux type solutions. I did add a report back hook for update but I don't see any response.
Console secure log indicates the ssh publickey is accepted and file transfer seems to go through.
My guess is that git-unpack-objects is not called.
I tried git gc and git fsck to cleanup any residual files and received no errors.
On initial transfer of the public repository and subsequent push I received an "Everything is up to date". It's the push following a new commit that hangs.
Any advice from someone running git on server?
TIA,
Harry

I went back to a package install of git-1.5.4.5 on my ppc iMac and git-1.6.0.4 on Leopard server. Still not much luck.
After re-examining permissions and setting paths, I finally got a push to work using Paul Johnston's approach at
http://marc.info/?l=git&m=122101378608279&w=2
# Fix it with symlinks in /usr/bin
server:~ $ cd /usr/bin/
server:/usr/bin $ sudo ln -s /usr/local/git/bin/git* .
I don't understand why I need the symlink is needed unless the ssh connection doesn't allow execution from a path location other than /usr/bin or /usr/sbin.
Once the symlink was installed for each of the git directory components then the push executed fine. I did use the +master:master to get a non fast-forward.
Not sure if that is still required but the connection worked.
Hope this helps someone in addition to me.

Connection pooling and auditing on an oracle database

Integration of a weblogic application with an oracle backend,
Connection pooling, and auditing ,2 conflicting requirements ?
Problem statement :
We are in the process of maintaining a legacy client server application where
the client is
written in PowerBuilder and the backend is using an Oracle database.
Almost all business logic is implemented in stored procedures on the database.
When working in client/server mode ,1 PowerBuilder User has a one-to-one relation
with
a connection(session) on the oracle database.
It is a requirement that the database administrator must see the real user connected
to the database
and NOT some kind of superuser, therefore in the PowerBuilder app each user connects
to the database
with his own username.(Each user is configured on the database via a seperate
powerbuilder security app).
For the PowerBuilder app all is fine and this app can maintain conversional state(setting
and
reading of global variables in oracle packages).
The management is pushing for web-based application where we will be using bea
weblogic appserver(J2EE based).
We have build an business app which is web-based and accessing the same oracle
backend app as
the PowerBuilder app is doing.
The first version of this web-based app is using a custom build connector(based
on JCA standard and
derived from a template provided by the weblogic integration installation).
This custom build connector is essentially a combination of a custom realm in
weblogic terms
and a degraded connection pool , where each web session(browser) has a one-to-one
relation
with the back end database.
The reason that this custom connector is combining the security functionality
and the pooling
functionality , is because each user must be authenticated against the oracle
database(security requirement)
and NOT against a LDAP server, and we are using a statefull backend(oracle packages)
which would make it
difficult to reuse connections.
A problem that surfaced while doing heavy loadtesting with the custom connector,
is that sometimes connections are closed and new ones made in the midst of a transaction.
If you imagine a scenario where a session bean creates a business entity ,and
the session bean
calls 1 entity bean for the header and 1 entity bean for the detail, then the
header and detail
must be created in the same transaction AND with the same connection(there is
a parent-child relationship
between header and detail enforced on the back end database via Primary and Foreing
Keys).
We have not yet found why weblogic is closing the connection!
A second problem that we are experincing with the custom connector, is the use
of CMP(container managed persistence)
within entity beans.
The J2EE developers state that the use of CMP decreases the develoment time and
thus also maintenance costs.
We have not yet found a way to integrate a custom connector with the CMP persistence
scheme !
In order to solve our loadtesting and CMP persistence problems i was asked to
come up with a solution
which should not use a custom connector,but use standard connection pools from
weblogic.
To resolve the authentication problem on weblogic i could make a custom realm
which connects to the
backend database with the username and password, and if the connection is ok ,
i could consider this
user as authenticated in weblogic.
That still leaves me with the problem of auditing and pooling.
If i were to use a standard connection pool,then all transaction made in the oracle
database
would be done by a pool user or super user, a solution which will be rejected
by our local security officer,
because you can not see which real user made a transaction in the database.
I could still use the connection pool and in the application , advise the application
developers
to set an oracle package variable with the real user, then on arrival of the request
in the database,
the logic could use this package variable to set the transaction user.
There are still problems with this approach :
- The administrator of the database can still not see who is connected , he will
only see the superuser connection.
- This scheme can not be used when you want to use CMP persistence , since it
is weblogic who will generate the code
to access the database.
I thought i had a solution when oracle provided us with a connection pool known
as OracleOCIConnectionPool
where there is a connection made by a superuser, but where sessions are multiplexed
over this physical pipe with the real user.
I can not seem to properly integrate this OCI connectionpool into weblogic.
When using this pool , and we are coming into a bean (session or entity bean)
weblogic is wrapping
this pool with it's own internal Datasource and giving me back a connection of
the superuser, but not one for the real user,
thus setting me with my back to the wall again.
I would appreciate if anyone had experienced the same problem to share a possible
solution with us
in order to satisfy all requirements(security,auditing,CMP).
Many Thanks

Hi Blyau,
As Joe has already provided some technical advice,
I'll try to say something on engineering process level.
While migrating an application from one technology to
other, like client-server to n-tier in you case, customers and
stakeholders want to push into the new system as many old
requirements as possible. This approach is AKA "we must
have ALL of the features of the old system". Mostly it happens
because they don't know what they want. Ad little understanding
of abilities of the new technology, and you will get a requirement
like the one you have in you hands.
I think "DBA must see real user" is one of those. For this
type of requirements it can make sense to try to drop it,
or to understand its nature and suggest alternatives. In this
particular case it can be a system that logs user names,
login and logout times.
Blind copying of old features into an incompatible new architecture
may endanger the whole project and can result in its failure.
Hope this helps.

Slava Imeshev

Powerbuilder application crashes after upgrade to 12.5.2 (build 5006)

I have already seen few similar posts on this forum for similar issue. However, I feel mine is different from those and could be some basic steps am missing. Thanks in advance for any comments.
We are evaluating the effort and benefits of migrating our PB 10.2.1 (build 9731) application to PB 12.5 Classic. After downloading the trial version from the SAP site, I could migrate the application easily with only a handful of warnings. However, while running the application either from build (EXE) or from IDE, it crashes (windows application failure) frequently. In addition to that, few of our application screens opens as blank screen (doesn’t display anything in the DW attached).
My operating system is Windows 7 (32 bit) Service Pack 1. The application has many calls external DLLs (both windows standard and custom), as samples at the bottom. I believe that the correct (from PB 12.5) DLLs are copied to Powerbuilder home directory (C:\Software\Sybase\PowerBuilder 12.5 & C:\Software\Sybase\Shared\PowerBuilder) and the source code directory in my attempt to ensure that there are no issues with DLLs. However, initially I had installed powerbuilder 12.5 also under the same root as Power builder 10.0, but as I read few posts that DLLs from different version residing in same place can cause issues, uninstalled and installed PB 12.5 on different location.
Our PB application also interact with the .Net modules of the application by communicating through a custom DLL. However, that seems still working and I am able to open the .Net screens from the migrated application.
Below are the main scenarios in which the application crashes and every time I get a DLL error as given below.
1. While running the application from IDE and selecting ‘Exit’ from the main window. This will close any instantiated objects and close the mutex by calling the windows API.
function ulong CreateMutexA(ulong lpMutexAttributes, boolean bInitialOwner, ref string lpName) library "kernel32.dll" alias for "CreateMutexW" function ulong GetLastError() library "kernel32.dll" alias for "GetLastError;Ansi"
function ulong CloseHandle(ulong hMutex) library "kernel32.dll" alias for "CloseHandle;Ansi"
This will result in the below crash.
Faulting application name: PB125.EXE, version: 12.5.2.5006, time stamp: 0x50f93412
Faulting module name: kernel32.dll, version: 6.1.7601.17932, time stamp: 0x503275b9

2. Opening of certain windows results in the below crash. If I try to debug the code and move mouse over the line of code being executed, then also I get the same crash. I don’t do the mouse move then I can proceed with the same line, however it will crash at a later line calling ‘classname’.

3. Few of the application screen opens but doesn’t display the datawindow attached to it.

... many calls external DLLs (both windows standard and custom),
You have a very complex application and it is unlikely that you will receive much help in this type of setting. As Chris has already pointed out, previous efforts appear to have been done in a sloppy manner; something indicated by the ANSI qualifiers on API functions that are not needed or relevant. In addition, the PB alias of CreateMutexA for the API function CreateMutexW is also suggestive.
I believe that the correct (from PB 12.5) DLLs are copied to Powerbuilder home directory (C:\Software\Sybase\PowerBuilder 12.5 & C:\Software\Sybase\Shared\PowerBuilder)
You should be very very careful about doing things like this. One should not simply scatter DLLs across directories without very good reasons as it often leads to strange problems. On a machine with the IDE installed, you should allow PB to install everything where it wants them. Copying or moving files is something done as a last resort - it is certainly something that you need to document in case you need to undo it or redo it at a later time.
Lastly, you might reconsider attempting this with the trial version. I don't how "current" the trial version is but I suspect it might be a bit buggier than the most current maintenance build. I'm guessing that you will have to do a bit more than recompiling to get the functionality related to "opening .Net screens" working. It might help to try creating a new application and put in some basic functionality to interact with all of these external processes, screens, dlls, etc since I suspect this is where the bulk of your problems exist.

Re: Forte and OrbixWeb call-back

We have created a business process manager (BPM) layer between our client GUI
and business model objects that supports Java call-in/call-out. This enables
switching out the Forte windows with Java windows for a web solution with
minimal code re-write.
We were able to get most functionality to work as per our design, which
included registering a call back function from a Java GUI in the BPM, but had
to make some sacrifices due to a Forte bug, at least under 3.0.D. We turned
in case #38434, detailing errors when we tried to fire a callback method with
parameters, example below ("callback" was the Java object passed in.)
method TestIIOPBackend.FireCallback(input message: Framework.string)
begin
if callback != nil then
task.part.logmgr.putline('Firing callback');
//WORKS
callback.CallMe();
//ERROR!
callback.CallMeString(message);
else
task.part.logmgr.putline('Callback not set');
end if;
end method;
This may have been fixed in 3.0.F, we found a way to work around it in our
design and haven't investigated since.

Subject: Forte and OrbixWeb call-back
Has anyone actually tried the tech note 11153 "Java call-in/call-out and
Forte
Anchored Objects"? I'm trying to verify the callback mechanism from
Forte to
an IIOP Java client. Thanks.

Peggy,
1) Do you have experience with PowerBuilder and Forte' applications running at
the same time on the same (laptop) computer? Here I'm thinking
about any potential resource constraints? Memory Requirements?As log as you are using Win95 or NT you should not be concerned about WIN-resources. Memory depends more on what your 2 tier PB application requires than what your Forté would require.
Cheers,
Troels

2) Can PowerBuilder and Forte' applications call and interact with one

The Forte' application will need to interact with the PowerBuilder application
to pull out information maintained by the PB application.
