Program to post messages on forums

Hi, I was wondering what topics do I need to know to write a java program that'll post messages on a certain forum w/ login and password etc. If anyone can tell me what I need to do or what topics I should look at let me know. I haven't covered things like networking yet so I was wondering what else i'd need to know besides networking etc. If anyone knows where theres a java prog similar to this let me know also so I can take a look at it , Thanks.

I'm sure they exist. Spammers use them all the time.
I'm not going to post much here, as your motives might be quite on the up and up, but anyone can read this stuff and cause havoc.
I'll tell you to check out the java.net classes as well as servlet classes. You'll need to not only connect to a URL, but to initiate GET or POST transactions with the server and read any responses that come back.

Problem with posting message in forum

Hi dkpb,
The problem here was that IE9 at the time was incompatible with the forum software. That has since been fixed. What is your issue now? It helps if you describe your specific problem with posting so we can look into it for you.

Keeping track of posted messages on this forum

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

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

"You do not have permission to post in this forum"

I have another account that cannot do anything much at all, and I would like to get it fixed without a five day wait for a Genius Bar appointment, then a 1 hour bus trip each way with an "I can't help with that" in the middle.
The account has been broken for over a year. This is what happens:
I can submit a question to the community.
I can open any postings that show as matches.
If there are no matches and I get thrown to the list of communities, then I can't view or post to any of them. I see the product names and icons (iPad, for example, but the list of related communities on the right is missing for all products. Which seems unfair because I own most of them.
You do not have permission to post to this forum
It appears you are not allowed to view what you requested. You might contact your administrator yadda yadda.
I have posted about this before:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/17393255#17393255
with no real answer (a threat of possible help, if you like, but with no resultant benefit.)
My question is - how does one get help with the help forums? I have phoned Apple's help desk and they said they could not do anything.
I would really like to get my primary account working - it connects to the right email address, it all set up and comfortable - and it does not use my name and location as an alias (who's idea was that? Fire that person!)
If you know of any court of appeal, help desk support forum support line, 21-step program or anything else that might help, please tell me. This has gone on long enough.
I tried to do something about this from the other account but to get support for the support communities you have to be able to post to them.

Seventy-one - To my knowledge, I have been a model citizen. And not impertinent of you at all - a very reasonable question. All words have been 1-3 or 5+ letters long, I certainly have not received any communication (that I have been able to find) that indicates a transgression. And there is another question - which castle, and are you saving for the deposit?
Bleach - other user name is "Ploughguy". But I was more after a means of contacting those with influence myself. Most fora like this have a contactable moderator or administrator. I am rather amazed that one needs the intercession of the saints. Such as St Roger...
Roger - This situation. The "can't look-can't post" situation. It has been (not) happening for some time.
I previously raised the issue here .
BTW, I created yet another ID because I was not careful enough when I set up the second ID and it defaulted to "NameFromSuburb". This is OK for johnfromnewyork but a huge privacy risk if you are ranulffromlittlestorpingintheswuff - an unusual name in a small place. I do not know how that default got through the peer review. Basically it says "ranulf has the good taste to own an Apple something which is portable and fenceable, and he lives not far from here". I have suggested to the privacy people that it is a very bad idea. And yes, I realise my alias is already out there. I have asked the privacy people to blow it away.

How do i get a long lived 60 days access token to post messages on facebook ? Getting exception error

I created just now a new app in the facebook site: https://developers.facebook.com
I have a new access token but its for short time will expire after 2 hours or so.
And i also got the app id and app secret code.
This is how im trying to use it:
private string PostFacebookWall(string accessToken, string message)
var responsePost = "";
try
//create the facebook account object
var objFacebookClient = new FacebookClient(accessToken);
var parameters = new Dictionary<string, object>();
parameters["message"] = message;
responsePost = objFacebookClient.Post("feed", parameters).ToString();
catch (Exception ex)
responsePost = "Facebook Posting Error Message: " + ex.Message;
return responsePost;
In this method PostFacebookWall its working now with the new access token i can post on my wall.
But since it will expire in few hours i want to make it longer access token for 60 days. So i have this method:
public static string RenewToken(string existingToken)
var fb = new FacebookClient();
dynamic result = fb.Get("oauth/access_token",
new
client_id = ,
client_secret = "",
grant_type = "fb_exchange_token",
fb_exchange_token = existingToken
return result.access_token;
Si called the method RenewToken in my constructor and used with my current access token code and im getting this exception:
(OAuthException - #1) The access token does not belong to application 1378943962355167
Strange since i checked double time and got the app id and secret from the current app.
This is the full exception error message:
Facebook.FacebookOAuthException was unhandled
HResult=-2146233088
Message=(OAuthException - #1) The access token does not belong to application 1378943962355167

ABAP program to Cancel messages in Scheduled/Recorded status?

Hi,
Thanks for reading my post...
Can anyone tell me whether there is an ABAP program available (or a variant) that will Cancel messages that are in Scheduled (or Recorded) status?
Messages to be sent from ECC to PI were not sent and are left in Recorded status in ECC. I cannot find the documentation to explain what this status is, but I'm presuming that it's similar to the Scheduled status in PI (though there's not much documentation about that either - for example, what's the difference between the 'green flag' Scheduled and the 'green flag' Released for Processing (WS)? ). {Note to SAP: Could we have a state transition diagram please? Simple, concise and effective.}
Anyway, the 'tick-pencil' button in SXMB_MONI (aka. CTRL-F8) can be used to cancel the messages in Scheduled/Recorded status. But I'm looking for an ABAP program to do this. The documentation seems to 'suggest' that this button might do the same thing as the ABAP program RSXMB_CANCEL_MESSAGES. However, this ABAP program does not cancel messages in Scheduled status (only the messages in Error), whereas the SXMB_MONI CTRL-F8 'tick-pencil' will cancel messages in Scheduled status if they are selected.
Is there another ABAP program available to cancel messages in Scheduled status - or is it possible to create a variant of RSXMB_CANCEL_MESSAGES that will do this? (I'm not an ABAP programmer and I've never created a variant, but looking at the code, it seemed it might be possible to get the program to read messages in Scheduled status rather than Error status.)
Many thanks for any help.
Mark

Messages are in scheduled status because they still in the queue in either 'READY' status or 'EXECUTING' status (see SMQ1/SMQ2). You don't want to automatically cancel messages that are in scheduled status because that means you are also going to cancel good messages. However, in some cases, you may want to cancel such messages especially when the message in the queue has been in 'Executing' status for long time (happens in case of long running mapping program or dropped connection etc). Such cases warrant manual intervention and hence the behavior as noted by you.
If you can tell me why exactly you want to cancel messages that are in scheduled status, I can help you more.
Thanks

How to post message (or Notify) a frame?

Hi I would like to know about how to notify a frame of some event? Say I would like to do the following.
On clicking buttonA
1. disable some other buttonB.
2. Perform some lengthy operation in multiple other threads and post message saying operation completed
3. Enable buttonB on receiving the message
As the operation involves controlling multiple hardware components, which run in different threads I dont want to modify the code to enable buttonB using swingUtilities.invokelater.
I would like to know how I can post a message to the message queue of Frame (or panel) on which buttonB is present so I can process it enable buttonB.
Also how do I check for and act on the messages in message queue.
I have programmed something similar in MFC. I am not sure if something similar is possible in swing. So please let me know if this is possible. I would be thankful for any suggestions or leads.
NOTE: I use a windows 2000 system. I know I can do this by synchronizing the threads, but that creats lot of overhead in my program, whereas this asynchronous method will help.
Thankyou

Well, notice that in the sample code I posted I did not pass a handle to the button to the second thread, I passed a handle to the dialog box as a whole. The enableB function is not a function of the button, but of the dialog. This technique IS sending a message to the dialog box, it is just doing it directly rather than putting it on a message queue. (If you're thinking in Windows C terms, its like "sendMessage" as opposed to "postMessage".) That enableB function could do whatever you want: it could enable six buttons, it could alter values in display fields on the window, it could read a file and connect to a web site, whatever.
So for your "generate a number" scenario, I would suggest very similar code. The "enableB" function could easily take a parameter. In HardWork we generate the number and then call enableB passing in this number. In MyDialog we accept the number and display it or whatever. Of course "enableB" is not an appropriate name for the function in such a case. In the case your describing it could just as well be named "processDone".
If the second thread is supposed to send a message to the dialog box and then continue running, presumably sending more messages in the future, there is just the slightest variation. The call to "enableB" (or whatever we call it at this point) is inside a loop instead of being the last line in the function.
Well, here's a complete (while trivial) example -- I just tried this and it really does run succesfully.
Click the "start" button and it starts up a thread that generates random numbers between 0 and 9. It disables the Start button while the thread is running. When the thread happens to generate zero, it quits, and the Start button is re-enabled. The HardWork thread communicates with the dialog purely through the "update" function -- you could put any code in there you like.

How to attach files to the thread we post in this forum?

How to attach files to the thread we post in this forum?
I’m wondering why there is no feature that allows attaching files from our hard drives! It is not practical to upload our file first in a certain web to provide it as a link in the post.
Is there a way to attach our files directly from our hard drive to the post?
Please, have a look on the screenshot below that shows a forum which includes all the very basic features!
Thank you for the help
Best
Jamal

Pierre,
Just a guess on my part, but I would suspect non-image files in this case.
As Ted points out, that WAS possible early on, and then the capbility to attach non-image files, was actually retained by a certain few forums, though not for long. This change was coincidental with a major spam attack, and at least one disgruntled user attempting to attach some rather nasty "stuff." I do ot know if those events prompted the change, as I was not part of the decision making group, that initiated the change.
Though 95% of the files that I wish to attach, ARE image files, there are times, where a TXT file would be ideal, say for a crash log, or similar. Now, I can convert that TXT to a PNG, but then one has to work with pixel x pixel dimensions, and some files, like those crash logs, can be rather long.
Personally, I find the loss of the Attach File (was via a button at the bottom-left of the editing screen) to be a sad comment on the actions of some, on these forums, but then that just reflects life outside of the forums.

BDC Program for posting FI document

Hi everyone!
Anyone out there already made a BDC program for posting FI documents with this concept:
User will upload a spreadsheet file with the line items per row
User will input which TCODE user will use for posting
BDC program will then post the document using the line items in the spreadsheet file
I need to make a BDC program with that concept but having a hard time to think of a good algorithm to make my program very flexible.
Thanks!

you can use batch input program RFBIBL00 to pasrk document. Please check these links for more information.

http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/print46b/en/data/en/pdf/CAGTFADM-FI.pdf
Have a processing routine defined for the specific Idocs that come into SAP.
So, as and when the idocs are in, the routine triggers and you can codeappropriately in the routine for parking the idocs.
Check these threads
BAPI For Parking FI Document
Post FI Parked Documents
You can use message type INVOIC, IDoc Type INVOIC01/02 with process code INVF (FM IDOC_INPUT_INVOIC_FI) for FBV1 transaction.
See if there are any BAPI/FMs for parking an FI document.
1.. Use INVOIC01 IDOC with INVF process code (This works for Vendor Line Items only). I read the documentation somewhere that, this would work even if the line items are > 999
2.. BAPI_ACC_INVOICE_RECEIPT_POST (This works for Vendor Line Items only)
3.. BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST (Tax jurisdiction allocation not calculated properly)
4.. BAPI_ACC_GL_POSTING_POST (No tax line items allowed for this BAPI)

How do i print all posts in a forum from url?

how do i print all posts in a forum from url?

Firefox doesn't have a built-in feature to open all the links on a page, or to print pages automatically. However, there might be some add-ons that would help you do that. You could search on the web, or try on the Add-ons site:
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/
Alternately, you may find a separate program to do it, which either has its own embedded browser or uses the connectivity features built into Windows.

PM/EAM related questions posted in PLM forum

Hi,
I was going through some of the threads available in PLM forum, but to my surprise, most of the threads posted are related to PM, which should have been posted in EAM forum. It was clearly mentioned by the moderator in one of the sticky thread [PLM-Forumsplit - Please ensure you are using the right forum|PLM-Forumsplit - Please ensure you are using the right forum;
Questions regarding Plant Maintenance (PM) or Customer Service (CS) are discussed in the Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) forum
forums - posts will be moved to the right forum.
Please ensure your are opening a new thread in the right forum
Despite the clear instructions given my the moderator, PM related questions are still posted to PLM forum and some of the active participant of EAM forum answers these questions in PLM forum. It would be nice if those threads are moved to appropriate forum, so that the relevant informations are available under one forum, also, PLM forum should be monitored regularly and inappropriate threads are to be moved to their respective forum.
Few PM related threads posted recently in PLM forum:

I had used abuse reports for some, but numbers of such posts are many.

I hate to say this, but I often see the same thing, and I've never been able to figure out exactly what triggers selectability vs. non-selectability, but I suspect some of it has to do with tranparency flattening in particular, and possibly text wrap in cases where that comes into play. ID optimizes the PDF it creates, I think, and that might cause text, or even images, to be broken into chunks in funny ways. It occurs to me that turning off optimzing for fast web view might help in this regard.

Sent Messages from iPad Appear as Posted Message

Hi All:
We have a single user (out of about 50 Mobility users) who is having an issue with sending messages from her iPad2. Whenever she sends or replies to an e-mail from the iPad2, the message is never sent to the receipient(s). Instead, a blank "posted message" appears in her inbox (both on the iPad and in her Groupwise inbox) originating from herself. Nothing appears in sent items on her Groupwise client - the only indication that anything was sent is the blank posted message that appears in her inbox. If she sends a message from the Groupwise client, the message sends perfectly. Contacts, calendars, and the inbox are synced to the iPad perfectly; it's just replying/sending that generates this posted message in her inbox.
We've tried removing the user from GWMobility and re-adding, running "Analyze/Fix Databases" from ConsoleOne on the user, and running a structural rebuild, but still have the same issue. We've also tried another iPad and were met with the same results.

I apologize if this was posted in the wrong area. I just found the DS: Mobility Pack forums and will repost there.

As mentioned already, this is a known issue. And a very annoying one.
What I've resorted to doing is turning to my bookmark for the forum (http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=939&start=0) after everytime I post.
