Problem with Compounding

Hi BW experts,
   I am facing problems with compunding of info-objects.
Info-Object A -
Compunded to B & C
Referenced to Info-object Z.
There is Characteristic variable (Type userentry/Default) CHARB.
original values:
   A          B     C
0001      ZP1 N
0002     ZP2 S
0003     ZP3 E
Problem : In report in the variable screen Values of A not showing compunding values.
i.e when i select the variable values i am getting values A = 0001 or 002 what i am expecting is 0001/ZP1/N or 0002/ZP2/S
How can i get those values? In query designer A,B,C are included in Free charactersictics?
Can somebody please help me how to solve this issue?
Very urgent issue please help me.

Hi JR,
Thanks..
I am handling a Trouble Ticket with the issue mentioned ,user use to see 0001/ZP1/S for A also but now he is not able to see them,thats the problem.
But A is compunded to both B & C ,so i am expecting that any other ideas?

Problem With Compound Primary Key

Hello Experts,
i am facing some probelm with copound primarykey.
the Probelm is
i have data base table which has compound primary key for that one i have created the entity bean(CMP) and primary key of type compound.using this i am able to insert record into databse but for updation i am using
<b>findbyPrimarykey()</b> method ,for that methos i am passing
primary key object with compound key values.
when i am executing this methos it is throwing <b>nosuchobject exception.</b>
what might be the problem
any help will be appriciated

Hi,
Is ur compound primarykey class is something like this?
public class PrimaryKey implements java.io.Serializable {
      public String id = "";
      public int no = 0;
      //a default constructor is required:
      public PrimaryKey() { }
      // optional constructor fo clients:
      public PrimaryKey(String id, int no) {
           this.id = smsId;
           this.no = no;
      public String toString() {
           return id + "" + no;
     public boolean equals(Object obj) {
          if (obj == null || !(obj instanceof PrimaryKey))
                  return false;
               else if ((((PrimaryKey)obj).no == no) && (((PrimaryKey)obj).id.equals(id)))
                  return true;
               else
                  return false;
      public int hashCode() {
            return id.hashCode() + no ;

Problem with compound objects in IP input-ready queries

Hi, gurus!
I have following problem:
In IP input-ready query I have 2 restricted key figures (KF1 and KF2):
KF1 restrictions:
      Char1 = X1
      Char2 = 100
KF2 restrictions:
      Char1 = X2
      Char2 = 100
Char2 is compound with Char1, so KF1 should be restricted as Char2 = X1/100.
That query in example doesn't work, all cells are grey. But, If I'll change restriction of Char2 in any key figures everything will be fine. It looks like the system ignores Char1 restriction. E.g.
KF1 restrictions:
      Char1 = X1
      Char2 = 101
KF2 restrictions:
      Char1 = X2
      Char2 = 100
(Ok)
I think it is some kind of system error, but can't find the related Nota. Maybe somebody already solved the same problem?

Hi Mikhail,
This is typical issue with compounded infoobjects.
I can think about 2 solutions.
1) Create a hierarchy on the compounded infoobject and restrict the KFs by hierarchy nodes rather than direct filter values on the infoobject.
2) If not, create an nav attribute on the compunded infoobject, in which you have to concatenate values of both the character values like 'X1100'. You this navigational attribute in the keyfigure filter.

FCPX 10.0.6 appears to have bugs with Compound Clips

Just a warning -- I upgraded to 10.0.6 and am finding annoying problems with the handling of Compound Clips. After any non-trivial editing of Compound Clips, FCPX will just stop rendering most of your video. You will just see a black screen, occasionally with some of your titles or shapes, but the bulk of the video is suddenly not rendered any more. Sometimes you can see it briefly in flashes inbetween black screens if you frame advance with right-arrow. But the only way to get out of this situation that I have found so far is to completely exit and re-enter FCPX. Which is really tedious and annoying to have to do this every time you edit the contents of a Compound Clip.
A secondary note: Beware -- they significantly changed the behavior of Compound Clips. Compound Clips are now "linked" so if you aren't aware of this change and do something like copy and paste a Compound Clip, then innocently edit one of the pasted Compound Clips, you will unknowingly change them all. Perhaps a nice feature, but if you don't realize this change was made, and you go about doing what you used to do, you will waste some time because you will destroy all those linked Compound Clips since you didn't know they are all now linked. Kind of amazing that they would just change the behavior like this and make the new behavior the default. If you're being nice to your users, you usually try to make things work compatibily with how they worked before, requiring you to do something different to get the new behavior. I guess I learned that I better read the release notes carefully before upgrading because who knows what behavior may have changed.

After spending some time on the Phone with support, we concluded that this FCPX project has been corrupted in some unrecoverable way which caused the black screen problems with Compound Clips. I will need to rebuild the project from scratch. Whether it was corrupted by the new version or it is a coincidence that it became corrupted right about the same time is not known.

Problem with update of BLOB field in a table with compound primary key

Hi,
I've been developing an application in Application Express 3.1.2.00.02 that includes processing of BLOB data in one of the tables (ZPRAVA). Unfortunately, I've come across a strange behaviour when I tried to update value in a BLOB field for an existing record via a DML form process. Insert of a new record including the BLOB value is OK (the binary file uploads upon submiting the form without any problems). I haven't changed the DML process in any way. The form update process used to work perfectly before I'd included the BLOB field. Since than, I keep on getting this error when trying to update the BLOB field:
ORA-20505: Error in DML: p_rowid=3, p_alt_rowid=ID, p_rowid2=CZ000001, p_alt_rowid2=PR_ID. ORA-01008: not all variables bound
Unable to process row of table ZPRAVA.
OK
Some time ago, I've already created another application where I used similar form that operated on a BLOB field without problems. The only, but maybe very important, difference between both the cases is that the first sucessfull one is based on a table with a standard one-column primary key whereas the second (problematic one) uses a table with compound (composite) two-column PK (two varchar2 fields: ID, PR_ID).
In both cases, I've followed this tutorial: [http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/apex/apex31nf/apex31blob.htm]).
Can anybody confirm my suspicion that Automatic Row Processing (DML) can be used for updating BLOB fields within tables with only single-column primary keys?
Thanks in advance.

Is there a chance that the bug will be included in the next patch?No, this fix will be in the next full version, 3.2.

BI 7 Upgrade - Problem with Authorisation Variable on Compounded Char

Dear All,
We have just upgraded our DEV environment from 3.5 to BI7 and have encountered a weird problem with 1 of our authorization variables.
Our authorization check variable checks the values from a table that the users are allowed to use (which includes the selection screen). There are 2 variables 1 for the uncompounded char and 1 for the compounded char, the uncompounded variable is working just fine but not the other. When the user tries to pick a value, they are presented with not just their restricted list but ALL the values.
Can anyone explain this? Has BI 7 changes the way authorizations work with Compounded Characteristics ?
Before anyone asks, these variables work just fine on 3.5 and are working just fine in our QA and PRD environments.
Help required urgently.
Thanks
Craig

Hi,
Yes authorisations in BI 7.0 are a bit different from the ones in BW 3.5. Here is the link which will help you know every thing in BI 7.0

Problem with MSI X58 Platinum SLI - IOH temperature !

Hi guys.
I have this PC configuration:
- MSI X58 Platinum SLI ( Bios Version 3.8 - http://img822.imageshack.us/img822/6707/161020101249.jpg )
- Intel Core i7 930 2.80 GHz box ( with Intel Turbo Boost running sometimes at 3.06 Ghz )
- MSI GeForce GT240 1GB DDR5 128-bit HDMI
- Corsair 6GB DDR3 1333MHz CL9 XMS3 Triple Channel Kit ( sets to AUTO and running at 1066 Mhz )
- Corsair CMPSU-750TXEU
- Ordinary case ( http://img828.imageshack.us/img828/4200/161020101246.jpg & http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/8480/161020101247.jpg ).
- Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.
I bought my PC components 2 months ago, so they are new.
Now, guys I think that is a problem with my motherboard. When I turn on the computer in Bios I have this temps: CPU – 30 C (86 F); IOH – 71 C (159 F); System 30 C (86 F) - http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/394/161020101242.jpg. After 2 minutes the temperatures are: CPU – 34 C (93 F); IOH – 82 C (179 F); System 41 C (105 F) and 2 more minutes later the temperatures are: CPU – 34 C (93 F); IOH – 84 C (183 F); System 43 C (109 F). After 30 minutes of doing nothing I have this temps: CPU – 35 C (95 F); IOH – 85 C (185 F); System 42 C (107 F) -
Guys it is normal with IOH temperature ? I am a little worried about it ( to be honest I am more than “a little” … I am worried a lot ).
Ok, I know I don’t have a good case but in 3 weeks I should receive this Thermaltake Spedo Advance Case (http://www.thermaltakeusa.com/Product.aspx?C=1121&ID=1829) and I will buy a new CPU cooler ( I don’t know yet wich one – maybe Corsair CWCH70 or Noctua NH-D14 but I have to see the case first … to be sure there is a plenty of space for those coolers ).
Pls help me with that IOH temperature. It is normal ? What if I intend to make a little OC ( lets say CPU to 3652 Mhz and RAM to 1333 Mhz … but also I will ask for your support ! ) my motherboard will burn ?
If it is necessary I will contact my retailer and send him back the motherboard but … I like MSI a lot.
Thx guys for your support !

Hey guys,
Here is a nice cheap alternative.
Here is my story about the same issue. I found it after looking at why my computer freezes sometimes. Not very often but enough for me to do some investigation. I noticed my IOH temp was a whopping 117 degrees Celsius. lol. Surprised my mobo didn't burn out by now. I wanted to evaluate the situation with the heat sink and decided to take it off. After taking it off I found extremely crusty purple compound on board the chipset and the heatsink. I took me FOREVER to scrape it off. it was almost like a cement which I found odd. After scraping and cleaning the surfaces with alcohol, I placed some silver compound on and proceeded to put it back on.
Well, upon hooking everything back up I was still at 95 to 103 degs. Now I started to really look at the options to replace this. I had SLI config which means I had to do something clever with the southbridge as well. A nice thermaltake chipset solution w/fan and a low profile copper southbridge with shipping was about 45 bucks. Hmm ... This is a sure fix from the threads I have read and its really kid of expensive to fix a simple defect. the problem is not necessarily with the heatsink not being sufficient. Its the combo of the compound used vs the amount of pressure applied between the heatsink and chipset. It was completely unacceptable. I knew this right away when I was watching the temp and then I would press on the top of the IOH heatsink and I would watch it drop another 15 degrees in less then 10 seconds. The springs are extremely weak and not effective at all in transferring the heat from the NB.
Here if my fix. Cost me less than a dollar at the hardware store and it works ideal thus far. Do this at your own risk. Doing this will probably void any warranty too. All my problems are solved and I am running at 57 degrees, YES, 57 degrees with the stock heatsink and no additional cooling.
For one scrape all that old crap off like I did. Apply your new compound. But when you go to replace your heatsink, use the following method. The trick is to use metal screws with a mobo washer, original springs from the plastic studs and a nylon locknut. Use screws that are the same diameter and length (maybe a tad bit longer) as the plastic retainer studs. Also grab a few of those red nylon mobo washers too, were gonna need them as well.
After scraping and applying compound, reassemble as follows. Screw with washer inserted into the back of the mobo so the threads are out front. The plastic/nylon washer is betweeen the screwhead and the back of the mobo as a insulator. Put the heatsink on. With the threads thru the heatsink already, put the springs on and start spinning on the locknut. I torqued the nut down on the spring until the spring almost became fully compressed. The purpose of the spring here is really to prevent you breaking something and at the same time using the max force of the spring since it weak to begin with. Thats why we need to compress it down pretty much all the way. There will be little to no room in the spring at this point. The heatsink at this point should be pretty solid to the board as well. I noticed with the plastic studs before the heatsink would wobble if you gave it a little rocking back and forth before. Not this time. Shouldn't move much if at all. Remember not to torque down too much. You don't want to go beyond the springs compression. Even if you did by accident, its better then not using a spring at all. If you feel that it starts to feel tight when torquing, you torqued too far. Stop an backup a 1/4 turn or so. It is also very important to make sure both torques are equal on both sides as well. Alternate sides when torquing down. I could tell by how much thread I had left on both sides and by looking for any uneven sides.
To summarize, the compound is a problem no doubt. After you resolve the compound issue, its all about the adequate pressure between the heatsink and the IOH. Much like the amount of pressure needed between your CPU and your heatsink give or take. And the pressure that would be as an aftermarket solution like the thermaltake chipset cooler. You dont see cheesy springs on that. Wake up MSI. Simpy using a more effective spring could save MSI some cash in the long run. I envision a leafsprin design like the thermaltake chipset one. The heatsink design could be better, sure, but the design itself is not the problem. Replace the heatsinks if you would like to, if your overclocking and stuff. Funny, this board I have is a refurb too and only had it for a few weeks. Figured they would have done something about it.
Sorry the pics are not the best. Here is about as close as I could get to the finished product

FAGL_FC_VAL -problem with KDB and KDF -KDB config is superceding KDF config

Hello experts,
The configuration of account determination for FAGL_FC_VAL is done using the transaction keys KDB and KDF. KDB is used to maintain account determination in case of non OI balance sheet accounts and KDF is used to maintain account determination in case of Open Item and Subledger accounts.
From what I know and have seen in my earlier clients the processing logic by SAP is -
1.         KDF first and secondly
Table: T030HB with valuation area
Table: T030H   without valaution area
In case no relevant KDF entry is found - by checking the entries of
2.        KDB
Table: T030S
But over here at my current client, the above processing sequence is not being followed - on checking the postings generated by FAGL_FC_VAL for non OI balance sheet GL accounts, I find that the account for posting balance sheet adjustment is not being picked from the KDF config but rather the balance sheet adjustment posting is going to the same GL account (being driven by theKDB config). I have checked all the above 3 tables and things look pretty normal to me. I am maintaining same GL account in both the config because in some company code this GL is open item and in some this is a non OI account.
It's a strange problem because system is not behaving correctly, if account determination for a non OI Balance Sheet GL account is maintained in both KDF and KDB then it's the KDF config that gets the first successful hit and drives the posting.
Problem is compounded by the fact that this issue is happening only in production system and things are working as expected in quality system. I have checked the config in both systems and they are the same.
Has any of you faced this problem before or if you can point me to the right direction then it would be greatly apprecited.
Thanks!

HI
Some time...some request number not release properly ....due that reason all the configuration may not be transfer...Ask your Basis person ...again Rerelease the all the request numbers..after that all the configuration will be replace
I hope it will helps

I've got a mac pro problem with the starting up, but also a red light on the logic board solidly on. Its not among the diagnostic led. It's located near the BT adapter and the front fans. Also the fans run loud also. any solutions?

Hi
I've got a mac pro late 2006, and i am having problem with it for quite a while now. the problem i am facing is the start up process, and the red light on the logic board. Earlier I've got the two led on the diagnostic leds 5 and 6 turned on without the diagnostic button being pressed, and i think those are related to the processors overtemp. I've managed to solve that by, removing the processors and re applying the thermal compound on the heatsink. what i have left now with is the red light on the logic board at the time i plugged in the power. At the same time when this light come on, the power indicator at the front panel come on as well. i am not sure what is this light relates to. We've replace the power supply too, and gone through the SMC reset but seems no help.
Any idea on the problem? I am desperate about it, and i will be greatful if anyone can help..
thanks and hope for your best solutions

I can't help directly with your problem but you might check here http://tim.id.au/laptops/apple/macpro/ for a service manual which could answer your question.

Why do I keep getting problems with Apple not recognizing my email password? This suddenly started and just reminds me of the mess that mobileme was. Calendar dev also is not working. What a complete mess!

Can't access my email - endless messages saying password is wrong, which it is not. Mobileme all over again. I now need to forward all Apple mail to GMail, which is how an email system should work. Same is true with the calendar - a complete mess on the integration with my Google calendar.
This is really, really a pain!!

OK this is Cormacin Texas - these idiots have put me through the hoops, effectively locking me out of the support forum. Anyway I've solved the problem - it took 3.5 hours, involved a trip to the Genius bar at the local Apple store, and one and a half hours escalating through the dial-in help support - which was about the only thing the Genius was good for.
What you need to know is:
1. Apple are having problems with their servers, but have not published the fact - we've all wasted a lot of time because these guys want to keep their Customer Sat scores high, I guess. (I'm starting to feel like one of their Chinese factory workers!)
2. This server problem is compounded by the fact that it only affects a few random servers
3. It in turn can lead to problems sending emails which require you to change your Apple Mail password, and in my case surgically remove bad records for various hidden email and library folders. (Good luck with that!)
So, a problem that they hide, a knock-on set of work that the problem indirectly causes, which they also hide, and a support structure that is geared for hardware, not the services that they are now selling.
My suggestion is to change your mail password using the web (icloud.com) access to Mail and see if that works. After that, remove and reset up your Apple email (Preferences) and pray that you don't have to join endless telephone answering lines where some of the folks will cut you off because they can't be arsed.
The two guys that finally helped me were brilliant, knew their stuff and could not have done a better job. The key guy was Danny - if you get him, your golden!

Problem with apex_item.date_popup in APEX 3.1

Hi,
I encountered a problem with the date_popup item after installing APEX3.1, probably someone can tell me if I am doing something wrong or if it is a sequel bug of 3.0.
I have a form with a manually generated region displaying a row with different kinds of input fields for every entry in a look up table. So there may be 5 rows to enter values or 30.
There are two date_popup fields in each row (id x and y), therefore it is not possible to give each of these popup-fields a unique id as it would exceed the limit of 50.
The problem is the same as in version 3.0 and before: when I select a date, let's say in the popup with id x row 6, it will allways show up in the first date_popup-field with id ix. The same for the fields with id y.
I solved the problem in 3.0 by adding an id-attribute with a unique name in html and replacing some values in the html-output. This helped distinguishing the different fields.
But with 3.1 there ist already an id-attribute (apex_date_11, 11 representing the column)
<input type="text" name="f11" size="15" maxlength="10" value="" id="P4_foo_2" style="margin-right:5px;" id="apex_date_11" />
which is referenced by the javascript-function of the popup.
Every popup either has the value apex_date_11 or apex_date_12.
This disrupts my work around from version 3.0.
The only solution that I see to get it working again is to replace or add a unique identifier to the input-id as well as to the function call, like apex_date_11_i.
Maybe there is another solution to distinguish the different date-fields, like setting the row attribute, which does not work.
Thanks in advance,
Alex

Hello,
Can you put an example on apex.oracle.com , see if we can help you out.
What has happened is we have tried to make items and their outputs more consistent across the product. This includes things like auto generation of ID's based on item names, fieldset's around compound items etc, looks like the auto generation of ID's is getting you here.
Sorry for the trouble.

A problem with a Materialized View

Hi,
I have a ordinary table with a three column compound primary key (COL_Id, COL_ValidFrom, COL_CaseId)
I also have a MV that selects from that table. This one compiles just fine. It looks like this:
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW "MV_02"
REFRESH FORCE ON COMMIT
AS SELECT COL_Id, COL_ValidFrom, MAX(COL_CaseId) CaseId FROM TBL_MediaText GROUP BY COL_Id, COL_ValidFrom;
Works fine. Now I'm trying to create a second MV that selects from the first MV. It looks like this:
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW "MV_03"
REFRESH FORCE ON COMMIT
AS
SELECT a.COL_Id, a.CaseId, a.COL_ValidFrom, NVL(MIN(b.COL_ValidFrom)-1, TO_DATE('2099-12-31','yyyy-mm-dd')) ValidTo
FROM MV_02 a, MV_02 b
WHERE a.COL_Id=b.COL_Id(+) AND a.COL_ValidFrom < b.COL_ValidFrom(+)
GROUP BY a.COL_Id, a.CaseId, a.COL_ValidFrom;
This one does not parse. (ORA-12054) There seem to be a probelem with the ON COMMIT command. I have searched the web and found some info on the subject. It tells me to create a MV log, wich I have. I've also tried to put count(*) and count(b.COL_validfrom). But it just wont work.
I see a possibilty of yhe problem laying in te fact that I join using two parts of my PK. Also there might be a problem with the fact that i can't create a log for MV_02 WITH PRIMARY KEY. Or maybe you can't have a MV selecting from another MV?
Do anyone know how i should specify my Logs and/or querys in order for this to parse?
I'm using 10.1, and I do have the ON REFRESH COMMIT-privilege.
Thanks!

Problem with applying fills & strokes to grouped objects in Illustrator CC

I have this problem that I deal with everyday & I can't figure out how to fix it.
I am always struggling with applying fills & strokes (or changing fills & strokes).
It seems like I always have to ungroup the objects first (even if I never grouped them in the first place), or I have to clear appearance first. Sometimes I have to ungroup several times, even if it is only one object by itself, not grouped with anything else.
I think It may have something to do with the pathfinder... like the pathfinder is creating groups when I use the divide filter.
Even when I use the direct selection tool, to select just the object I want, it wont let me apply the fill or stroke that I want.
Also, it seems like it has several layers of appearance... when I ungroup the object, it changes appearance (the fill or stroke changes).
Also, if I eyedrop the object to apply its appearance to another object, the "hidden" appearance is the one that gets appled to the new object.
The closest discussion I could find was about compound paths, but I think this is a different issue, because when I go to compound paths in the menu, it doesn't give me the option to release anythig.
I have this problem ALL DAY LONG, every day. Please help!!

Thanks for your reply!
I see what you are saying, and I think is some cases that could be a helpful trick - but the problem I'm having is slighlty different.
The object that I want to change doesn't show the actual appearance... it only shows its underlying appearance after ungrouping several times, and then when it is completely ungrouped, it visibly changes to another fill & stroke. This happens even when the object is not grouped with anything... it is just grouped to itself i guess & I am not grouping these items, they just become grouped somehow - I think because of the pathfinder. I often have to ungroup 3-5 times, which is a hassle in iteself... but sometimes I actually need to grouping to keep items togther so I can manage all the ojects & move them around as needed.
So... the method you are suggesting could possibly solve the issue, except I don't know what the fill & stroke is until I ungroup everything, so I can't create the swatch off to the side to match it. The other thing is, it seems like I would be creating a lot of swatches, since I use lots of different fills & it seems like it would be a lot of extra work.
Here is an example of 2 objects before using the pathfinder. Please note how the object selected & the fill & stroke boxes all jive:
Now here are two images after using the pathfinder tool (I added another object to get the problme to happen). Please note how the fill & stroke boxes do not match the objects selected:
This is what happens when I try to change the fill to green (the fill does not apply):
I thought it had something to do with compound paths, but as you can see below, the menu doesn't give me an option to release compound paths:
The final image is what happens after I ungroup the objects:
I don't understand:
1) why pathfinder is grouping these objects
2) why the strokes & fills change & why the fill & stroke boxes don't match the actual fill & stroke.
3) why I can't change the fill or stroke without ungrouping (even when using the direct selection tool).
4) why the fill & stroke change again after ungrouping

Weird problems with kt7 turbo (6330), PLEASE HELP!!

I just this last week purchased an older kt7 turbo (6330) to upgrade my brother's computer. I am pairing this with an Athlon XP 1700 processor. After installing all the hardware and booting up the computer, I started getting various errors. Sometimes the screen would just flash all kinds of colors, sometimes it would say something about a bios check not detecting the a: drive followed by insistent beeping, sometimes it just wouldn't start at all. After much hassle, I finally got the newest bios installed from MSI that claimed to fix some stuff between this motherboard and an Athlon XP 1700. (I didn't at the time suspect this to be the true culprit) Finally on Sunday afternoon, after a cold start, it magically started up and I finally got Windows XP installed. I found some drivers on the reference CD that seemed to help some. But now, after about 5-10 minutes, depending on the software being used, the computer will just shut itself down after a 60 second warning message. When I try reseting it, I start getting all of those weird errors again. The only way to get the computer to start up normally again is to let it sit for about 10-15 minutes to cool down, and then cold start it. At which point it will work again for another 10-15 minutes and shut down again. I am getting SOOOOO tired of these MSI motherboards not working for me!! I think MSI has a personal problem with me. PLEASE help me!! By the way, I don't think it's power related, cause I just put in a brand new P4 certified 400Watt powersupply.

Sounds like your heatsink on your CPU may not be seated correctly. Try pulling it, cleaning, reapplying compound, and reseating it.

JAVA arithmetic problem with double ?

If I try to work double precision numbers I get a unintelligible result, but what do I do wrong ?
Are there any inaccuracy in the JAVA double precision numbers arithmetic or what's the problem with this very simple example code ? How can I get correct result ?
Simple example code :
================
for (double i = 0; i < 10; i = i + 0.01)
System.out.println(i);
On the output :
===========

This result is entirely unsurprising, and the flaw lies in your program, not in Java.
Java represents numbers in 2's complement [SEM] form (read the Java Language Specification (JLS), according to agreed standards. When you specify a fractional number that appears to be nice and easy to work with, you are thinking in decimal notation, not binary, and you are giving it a number that cannot be precisely represented. It is a little like asking you to write down exactly what pi is (all its digits ;-)).
So the number you get is not precisely what you asked for (one very insignificant error). But then you compound it by adding an inaccurately represented number to an inaccurately represented number, and so on, until the bit errors combine to make a very inaccurate number.
The correct way to approach what you are trying to do would be to perform the addition using integers, and multiply each time you want to scale it to a double.
This has been asked many times - I would suggest you:
- Search the forums
- Check out the language spec
- or do a degree in CompSci :-)
A calculator is a little more accurate because it does not have to conform to agreed standards, and so can use special logic to minimise such errors. The average pocket calulator also works to a much lower level of accuracy (usu 8 digits), and therefore masks the errors to you. You'd find that you got the same effect if you played with it long enough.
Hope this helps
