Problem executing RMI tutorial "Getting Started Using RMI"

I am trying to execute the RMI tutorial located at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/guide/rmi/getstart.doc.html
I use JDK 1.3.1, and Windows XP Pro.
I follow the info on the URL http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/guide/rmi/getstart.doc.html
And all is OK, but when I try to run the server.I use the following command:
C:\public_html\htdocs\myclasses>java -Djava.rmi.server.codebase=http://127.0.0.1
/myclasses/ -Djava.secutiry.policy=c:\policy examples.hello.HelloImpl
And I got this error:
HelloImpl err: access denied (java.net.SocketPermission 127.0.0.1:1099 connect,r
esolve)
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.net.SocketPermission 1

It seems its something with policy file, I used the one on the tutorial, but I still got error.
Anyone could help me ?
John

I think it's just a typo in your command line. :)
You're using java.secutiry.policy instead of
java.security.policy.
Feel the difference! :)

"Tutorial - Getting Started with JSF" does not work

I tried the "Tutorial - Getting Started with JSF" located on http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe1013jdev/jsfintro/jsfintro.htm#t6, but the last part "Creating a conditional navigation" is not complete.
There are 2 issues
1. The return values in the code blocks in step 9 and 11 do not match with the given example code.
2. In step 12 I am missing the way to bind this message component to returned message from the login.
Could you please correct the code parts and add the message binding piece?
Thanks,

I am walking through Apples tutorial getting started with iOS development. I am at the storyboard area and can't seem to drag the cancel button to the green exit. I am not sure why the exit button doesn't except it. Is anyone else having this issue?

I am walking through Apples tutorial getting started with iOS development. I am at the storyboard area and can't seem to drag the cancel button to the green exit. I am not sure why the exit button doesn't except it. Is anyone else having this issue? Is there a work around? I have done this app twice and still cant get the exit to except the Cancel or Done bar buttons

Yes I checked it. As far as I can see I did everything Apple said to do. I took some screen shot so you can see how the screens are connected and what and where the code is, and what it does when I drag the cancel and done bar buttons to the exit

You should be able to skip the iCloud setup process on first startup. Look around for a skip button.
If you would like the setup iCloud though, follow the following steps:
If you know the answers to your security questions
Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com).
Select “Reset your password.”
Enter your Apple ID, then select Next.
Select “Answer security questions” as your authentication method. Select Next.
Select the birth date associated with your Apple ID, then select Next to begin answering your security questions.
After answering your security questions, you'll be asked to enter and confirm your new password. Select Reset Password when done.
If these steps didn't help you to reset your password, contact Apple Support.
If you have access to the email addresses associated with your Apple ID
Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com).
Select “Reset your password.”
Enter your Apple ID, then select Next.
Select “Email authentication” as your authentication method. Select Next.
Apple will send a password-reset email to the primary address or verified rescue address associated with your Apple ID. Didn't receive the email?
Open the message and select the link to reset your password.
When the My Apple ID page opens, enter and confirm your new password, then select Reset Password.

How to get InitialContextFactory using RMI/IIOP without using weblogic.jar

Hi Robert
I know this is an old post. but I am interested in knowing how to get the
initial context using RMI/IIOP without the use weblogic specific classes
like weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory . If you have a code snippet that
you can provide as an example, it would be just great.
thanx in advance

Got a Problem? How to Get Started

Getting started on fixing your problem:
Working with video editing on an NLE (Non Linear Editor) program can tax the most robust computers. Depending on many factors, this can be a daunting task, at best. Many of the components of one’s computer can be stressed, more than with almost any other operation, that it will ever perform.
Getting help on the forum can seem almost as daunting, as the first thing that a poster is likely to encounter is a list of questions, before any answers. This is the natural flow, because people are trying to help remotely. They cannot come to your office and sit behind you to determine your computer system’s capabilities, and observe just what you are doing, when and how you are doing it. Do not be put off by these questions, as they are very necessary and will very likely give the respondents some clues on where to look for your problem.
Problems can normally be broken down into these categories:
1.) System
2.) Assets (the Audio, Video and still images)
3.) Project (how it is setup and with which Preset)
4.) Workflow (what you are doing, and how you are doing it)
If you prepare a checklist, before you post your problem, it will save everyone a great deal of time, and will likely yield your answer much more quickly. The more detail that you furnish, the fewer questions will remain, that have to be asked. Remember, you have to be the "eyes" for the others on the forum, if they are expected to help you. They could be thousands of mile away, in other time zones, and will not know about your system, your Assets, your Project or your workflow, until you tell them. Help them get started quickly, by telling them in your first post. Do your "homework," so they do not have to ask questions for the first five responses, and can start giving you answers much more quickly.
System:
Be very specific about your computer. Just saying that "I have a Dell" doesn’t tell them much of anything. List your CPU type and speed, i.e. Core2 Quad Q6700 2.3GHz. Same for your RAM, i.e. 4GB of DDS. Also, list your Video Card, type, connection and driver number and date. Same for your Audio System. Note: most of this data can be found in Control Panel>System>Hardware>Device Manager. Pointing people to a URL on your computer company’s Web site isn’t a bad idea, but giving the exact details of your system is far, far better. It is likely that that Web site will have the general configuration, and who knows if that is exactly what you bought. List it for them, so they do not have to go and guess, and write down the specs. of your system.
One of the most important aspects of your system will be the I/O sub-system. What is that, you might ask? Well, it’s your HDD’s (Hard Disk Drives). The important info is how many physical HDD’s do you have. List their size, their speed, their connection, the amount of free, defragmented space and how they are allocated. This would look something like this: "3x 200GB SATA II. Drive C:\ OS, programs and Windows Virtual Memory with 185GB free, D:\ media with 120GB free, E:\ Project files, output and Scratch Disks with 150GB free." If you have any drive partitioned (not a good thing nowadays), let everyone know and give details. If you have a RAID, give full details on how it is managed, the type and how it is used in your system. [As an aside, most RAID’s should not really be considered for a system drive, unless one has built in redundancy in the RAID, i.e. 3, or more, physical disks. Remember, this info can be critical. If you have CD/DVD burners, list them and their connections. If you have external HDD’s, list them with the same details as for your internal HDD’s.
Next, tell about your Windows Virtual Memory (Page File). How large is it, where is it located on your system and how is it managed, i.e. dynamically by Windows, or static? Again, this can be critical. For info, you will need to go to Control Panel>System>Advanced>Performance and look. In the Settings>Advanced, you should see things like Process Scheduling, Memory Usage and Virtual Memory. This is where you will find the answers. Note: depending on which OS one has, the exact location and syntax may differ.
While we’re on the OS, list the exact OS that you have, i.e. Vista Ultimate 64-bit SP-2 with all updates and hot-fixes.
What version of the NLE are you using and has it been updated, i.e. PE3.0.2.
Finally, list any other programs, that might be in use, while you are editing, such as MSN Messaging, etc. These can be critical, even though you are basically editing video.
Assets:
Give full details on your Assets. Just saying "a bunch of .AVI’s" tells people nothing. Be very specific with the details. See this ARTICLE on what info to give, and how to obtain it. Same for your Audio and for your still images. Size in pixels, file type, etc., are very important for the stills, and file type. Sample-rate and sample size are important for the Audio.
Project:
How is your Project setup? Which Preset did you use? What is the Duration of your Timeline. This gives someone the "lay of the land," so to speak and is very important. Note: your Project Preset should match your Video Assets. You can always Export/Share to some other frame size, or format, but your Project should match your Video Assets.
Workflow:
How have you arranged your Assets on the Timeline allows someone to "see" your Project in their mind. Information such as one 00;10;00;00 AVI (remember, you will have furnished complete details on those AVI’s, or MPEG’s when you listed your Assets above) on Video Track 1 (VT1) with its Audio on Audio Track 1 (AT1). One AVI used as a PiP (Picture in Picture) on VT2 with its Audio on AT2. One MP3 soundtrack for the full Duration on Soundtrack and my Narration on the Narration Track. List any Transitions, or Effects used. If you have Titles, list them. If you have any Keyframing used, list where and what they control.
List exactly what you are doing and to which Asset you are doing it, when your problem occurs. If you are doing something like Export/Share, list the full settings (Presets) used, and be sure to mention any other tasks being performed by your computer, while you are doing the Export/Share.
If you have already done some trouble shooting, list what you have done and the complete results. Were there any error messages? If so, give the full description. To say, "I had error messages," tells people nothing. What exactly did they say?
This information will help people get right to your problem and will get you up and running much more quickly.
As an aside, think about the title of your post. Saying "Problem" is not good enough. Instead, something like "PE7 Fails on Share to MPEG-2" would be better. First, you are trying to let everyone know something about your Problem, so they will see it, and be interested in helping you. If you are having an Audio issue, mention "Audio" in the title, so the right people will find your post. Not everyone knows everything about all aspects of Video. You want the right people to see your post and to be working with you, to fix your problem. Also, later on, it is good to have a title that will be easily found by others, who may have the same exact problem. If you get an answer that works, please post back that success, so others, finding your post, will know what worked, and what did not. Note: do not put your entire post into the title. That is just tough to read and understand. Use a few words, but make them the right words.

How can I get started using MySQL?

I'm really new to jdbc and was wondering if someone could offer some help on where to get started with using java and mysql. I'm not sure if I need extra packages or what and resource of info would be great.
Thanks

Hi,
if I knew your environment I would have given you a better response, anyway, for now take this as a general guide
All the instructions here are documented either in JDBC Tutorial or MySQL documentation.
1) download the lastest JDBC Driver from mysql website:
http://www.mysql.com/downloads/api-jdbc-stable.html
You download either one gz or zip files depends on your OS and unzip it.
2) place the jar file:mysql-connector-java-3.0.9-stable.jar into your CLASSPATH;
3) Thats it, just follow the direction in the JDBC Tutorial, like normal,
MySQL driver class name is: org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver
the URL: jdbc:mysql://<host>:<port default=3306>/<database>?autoReconnect=ture
and change the host, port , and database according to your settings!
Note: I really do not recommend you using the JDBC-ODBC bridge, because it is a solution only if you do not have a direct JDBC driver to your database, its overhead anyway.
Good luck!

Getting started using c++ and Opengl

Hi all,
I hope this is the right section to post this question. I am trying to getting started in developing little games in C++ usign Opengl. I have tryed to look for some documentation and understand how to set up my dev environment. I am a little bit confused on wich version of OpenGl to install and whether or not I need to support it installing particular drivers.

Not sure I understand what you're trying to do/install and why based on your post. But since it sounds like you're trying to jump right into the middle of it and I "got started using c++ and opengl" without having any clue of anything a week or so ago, here's some random stuff that would have saved me a lot of time:
- I don't think nouveau is so great for opengl - you're probably better of using the proprietary nvidia driver (which isn't great for development, but still, better / necessary). You seem to be on a laptop? Then you might need one of those bumblebee / optimus things which makes the situation a lot worse. I never had to use those things, but based on various random posts I came across while I was breaking & fixing my own opengl stuff, everything seems to be even more confusing & glitchy/breaky for the people who have to use it on TOP of the whole rest. You might waste a lot of time looking for errors in your code when there are none and it's really just that optimus/bumblebee thing messing stuff up. Which is TERRIBLE if you're just getting started, so you probably should think about using a different machine with a "real / normal" graphics card for this until you have seen "how opengl is supposed to behave" without this additional source of messy breakage.
- New to c++ and confused with including / linking etc? If so: Try cmake (google "findpackage.cmake" for whatever you need, look at some cmakelist.txt's for programs similar to what you want to write) - that might get you started a lot faster while you're still not sure what you need/want and enables you to learn the boring stuff piece by piece when you really need it (as opposed to all in one giant boring heap before you can even try anything fun).
- Kdevelop (or any IDE that has some support for cmake + GOOD syntax completion) also helps a LOT in the beginning.
- For a start, you just need a modern opengl context. The rest (glew, glut, opengl, etc) will probably somehow fall into place once you made your choice there and just start with that. SFML is probably the most comfortable to offer an opengl context for a beginner (SDL can be a bit stubborn if you're as clueless as I was. I also tried several others and they all seemed rather "brittle", leading to confusing results if you try to use them while not having much of a clue yet).
- If you already know some C++/opengl, "those pesky :: 's" don't confuse you as much as they did me when I took a first look, and you don't necessarily want to try doing everything very lowlvl (write your own shader class etc) at first until you understand stuff, you can also try to use qt5's opengl context from the start (I'm switching to it now that I need a GUI in addition to raw opengl).
- After you manage to draw some obsolete opengl stuff (glbegin() tutorials are everywhere) to confirm that you managed to create your gl context, it probably makes sense to forget about "glbegin" again right away and focus on ShaderProgram/VAO/VBO. It might make sense to to create + render a VAO manually first to get a better understanding of what they are/do... but on the other hand, you can also safe a lot of time if you use premade ShaderProgram/VAO/VBO classes (I think qt5 has all of those) instead right away.
- At the point you manage to get a VAO rendered in your context, you probably won't rely on finding information specific to your framework (p.E.: linux/qt/nvidia stuff/sfml) so heavily any more and can look for general opengl / VAO / VBO / Open Shader Language stuff - which is all over the place and easy to find.
- Limiting your googling to THE LAST YEAR when you look for opengl/c++ stuff might get you a lot less confusing / obsolete results.
Good luck!

How I get started using voice input with mac mail?

Just got a new Imac. have had Apple computers for a long time. Want to start using voice input with mail. How do I get started?

Apple's voice input options are the following:
Dictation
This allows you to speak a phrase and have the system enter it as text in any text field, be it a name and address form or a text editor like Pages or Word. The settings for this service are in the Dictation system preferences, and by default you activate it by pressing the Fn key twice in a row and then speak the desired phrase after you hear the bing sounds.
Speakable Items
This option allows you to somewhat control the Mac's interface elements by speaking key phrases to the system. This option is enabled in the Accessibility system preferences, and is at the bottom of the listed services. In here you can turn on the service and calibrate it to properly hear your voice, set a "listening key" (similar to the Fn key for Dictation), and then enable various command libraries.

How do I get started using my new 3GS for apps?

Help. I am on a family plan and am 1 of 4 lines.
I am the only one with iphone 3. How do I download
aps? and which "passwords" etc. do I use to get
started? I am all new at this.

    I love explaining iPhone concepts from scratch. You say you have the iPhone 3GS. If you have purchased this phone after 10/11/11, than that means you are running iOS 5, the latest version of your phone's ability, in simpler tems, you got all the new stuff on your phone that Apple released except for Siri.
    Now that we have that settled we can download an app. You start by finding the app titled "App Store" on your phone's homescreen. You lightly tap the app with your finger (not your fingernail). You have now entered into the hub of all apps (consists of games, utilities, business helpers, games, etc.) You should see five buttons on the bottom of your screen. If you want to download an app that is "all the rage" right now, press either the "Top 25" or "Featured" buttons. If you are looking for a certain app genre, tap the "Categories" button. If you know an app you specifically want by name, press the "Search" button, then tap on the white bar on the top of the screen and type in the app's name. Next, no matter what app you chose, when tapping it's name or logo, you are taken to it's description.
    You picked out an app you like, good for you. You can read it's description on this download page, look at screenshots of the app, gift the app (if the app is not free), and look at reviews from other people with this app all before you download it onto your phone. To finally proceed dowloadig the app, scroll to the top of the app's page and press the button in the top right corner that should either say "FREE" if the app is free, ".99" if the app costs a dollar, or "INSTALL" if you or someone else sharing your iTunes Store account has purchased this app. No matter what it says, you tap that button twice for confirmation, and then... here comes the password part.
    The password is for your Apple ID. Your Apple ID is like your username on a social network. The only difference is that instead of any username, it has to be an Email address. If you honestly do not know which Email address you used to be your Apple ID, you can find it by pressing the "Top 25" button in the App Store and scrolling all the way down. If you are logged in, it should say "Apple ID:[email protected]" or something. If you see your Email address there, you can press it and press the "iForgot" button to get your password Emailed to you on that address. If you don't see this, you are not logged in. this means you must try to log in if someone else in your family knows if you even have an Apple ID. If you now are sure you do not have an Apple ID you must make an Apple ID which will take a while. You will have to choose an Email address you can access to be your ID, a password you can remember, your billing info, and three emergency questions for recovering your account. once that is settled, you log into this account on your phone by tapping the button in the location I stated before (bottom of the Top 25 tab). You type in your password which you hopefully now know, you now revisit the app you wanted to dowload, reach the password imput screen that I had guided you to, and you type in your passowrd one last time after doing so, you will be forced out of the store, and you get to watch your app install. i recommend you be at home under wifi if this is a large app. After doing this, you will shortly be able to download more apps from the store without even nedding to type in your password. I just hope you remeber your password for when it askes you again the next time.
Good luck!

Problems getting started using Variables & Datasets

Hello,
I am new to this forum and new to scripting in Illustrator and scripting in general.
I have an XML file containing a number of datasets each consisting of a number of text variables which I want to use to create a deck of trading cards.
Each trading card consists of a Text Field for the title of the card and a number of icons, which are instances of various Symbols
I have written a script to create each card and i can load the variables into my javascript using: newCard.importVariables(new File(xmlPath));
I now need to access the data in the datasets in order to populate the card.
To provide some context, this is an image of one of the cards with placeholder art:
Currently, for the icon in the top right hand corner (the PHASE icon) I am using the following code:
phase = "night";
phaseIcon = newCard.symbols.getByName(phase);
phaseIcon1 = newCard.symbolItems.add(phaseIcon);
phaseIcon1.top = 232;
phaseIcon1.left = 140;
What i want to be able to do, is to pull the value for the <phase></phase> TextVariable from my XML dataset and insert that into the script, but I don't know how. This is where I am stuck as to how to proceed. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Nick

Thanks for posting. I can't give a reason for my choice of software and scripting language other than I *love* Illustrator and have yet to get to grips with InDesign and javascript is a language I have been trying to teach myself and am most familiar with.
I have been reading through the ExtendScript Toolkit Javascript docs and have managed to get this working:
idoc = app.activeDocument;
var wolfCardsXML = new XML ( "<wolfcards> <card> <title>Wind Through the Trees</title> <phase>dusk</phase> <fear>fear1</fear> <weather>weather1d</weather> <bonus1>pluck1</bonus1> </card> </wolfcards>" );
var currentCard = wolfCardsXML.card[0];
var phaseValue = currentCard.phase.toString();
var phaseIcon = idoc.symbols.getByName(phaseValue);
var phaseIcon1 = idoc.symbolItems.add(phaseIcon);
This works fine to read the XML data, pull the <phase> value and then use that to pull a Symbol of the same name and place it on the artboard, which is exactly what I want to be able to do. Obviously tho, I have 100+ <card> elements i want to store and loop through to produce all the cards in the deck, but it seems that new XML () will let me do this if i can just pull in the xml data from a txt file as one long text string. Could anyone please suggest a way of being able to do this? Thanks
