Help required understanding the purpose of having instance Init blocks

I want to know exactly what the purpose of having instance initialization blocks in Java. As in static init blocks, we can execute some commands before creating an instance of a class.
And also in instance init blocks, we are executing some commands which we can do in a constructor. So Im little bit confused of the purpose of having this concept instance init blocks without writing it in the constructor itself.
Really appreciate if anyone can explain this ASAP as I am still a beginner who is studying for SCJP exam.
Thanks in advance.

The instance initialization blocks are always executed before the constructor code is executed. This may be used for some activity which is common to all constructors (in case constructors are overloaded).

What is the use of block step in BPM? Please help!

Hi Experts,
I would like to know what is the use of block step in BPM? In what cases we can use it?
Can somebody explain BLOCK by relating to any programming language ( java) control step?
Please help!
Thanks
Gopal

Hi,
Block step is similar to what we use curly braces in most of the languages which defines the scope. For example if we are using loop step in bpm to loop through some variable then we can use block step to restrict the scope of loop step up to some point.
Thanks and Regards,

I just got a MBP Retina. At it's highest resolution, everything is tiny. The olny way to get things to a readable size is to lower the rez, but that defeats the purpose of having it. Am I missing something?

It doesn't defeat the purpose to lower the resolution. When you choose the size you can read, the extra pixels are used to make the text and graphics more detailed, closer to the high print resolution humans have been accustomed to reading on paper for hundreds of years. That is the difference compared to the coarse screen resolution of a conventional (non-Retina) screen.

I have a 4 gen Time Caps. and a 2nd Gen Airport Extreme I would like to extend my TC network to use the Extreme for the purpose of having internet available to my TV box wired. Is this possible and how to I get them to work together?

How can I get my Time Cap (TC 4 gen) to recognise my 2gen Airport Extreem (AE)
Frank

Thanks for the info, this really helps.
Power up the AirPort Extreme for a few minutes, then hold in the reset button on the back of the Extreme for 10 seconds and release. Allow a full minute for the Extreme to restart to a slow, blinking amber light.
It might be possible to use wireless to configure the Extreme, but I recommend using a wired connection. Temporarily, connect an Ethernet cable from your Mac to one of the LAN <-> ports on the Extreme.
Click the AirPort icon at the top of the Mac's screen and wait a few seconds for a listing of New AirPort Base Station to appear. Just below that, click on AirPort Extreme.
The illustration below shows an AirPort Express. You will see AirPort Extreme on your screen.
AirPort Setup will open up automatically and take a minute to analyze the network, then announce that the Extreme will be configured to extend the Time Capsule network.
Enter a device name that you want to use for the Extreme and click Next
Wait a minute while AirPort Setup configures things for you. When you see the message of Setup Complete, click Done.
You can disconnect the Ethernet cable that you used for the set up now. Things should be working. The Extreme is providing additional wireless coverage the the Ethernet ports are enabled. You can connect to any port that you want since they all operate the same in this type of setup.

What is the purpose of having 'oracle' user with umask 022?

Hello,
What is the purpose with having the 'oracle' profile with a umask of 022? Isn't that a security risk having files created by 'oracle' with 755 permission? I mean why let others have the capability to read and execute on files that 'oracle' writes. Thank you.
Paul

Hi;
You can set it as you wish. But from note:
The umask utility sets the file mode creation mask of the current shell execution environment to the value specified by the mask operand. This mask affects the initial value of the file permission bits of subsequently created files. If umask is called in a subshell or separate utility execution environment, such as one of the following:
+(umask 002)+
nohup umask ...
find . -exec umask ...
it does not affect the file mode creation mask of the caller's environment. For this reason, the /usr/bin/umask utility cannot be used to change the umask in an ongoing session. Its usefulness is limited to checking the caller's umask. To change the umask of an ongoing session you must use one of the shell builtins.
If the mask operand is not specified, the umask utility writes the value of the invoking process's file mode creation mask to standard output.
The most common umask values are 022, 027, and 077. A umask value of 022 lets the owner both read and write all newly created files, but everybody else can
only read them:
Oracle recommended(also its a prereq for installation) to set umask 022 due to do upper explanation.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19253-01/816-5165/umask-1/index.html
Regard
Helios
Source:
+0666 Default file creation mode+
+022 resultant mode+
+0644 resultant mode+
On many UNIX systems, the default umask is 022. This is inherited from the init process, as all processes are descendants of init.

Where are the masters actually stored upon conversion from Aperture to Photos? Photos?
The master files are stored on your drive, but they are not actually stored "in" any folder. Folders are really just special files that store various bits of information about the files associated with that folder, including links to where they actually are stored. That's why you can "move" a file from one folder to another very quickly: all that you really are doing is moving the link & other info from one folder to the other folder, while the file itself stays where it was.
Because of this, it is possible for more than one folder to link to the same file -- in the Finder it looks just like there are two copies of the file, one in each folder, but there really is just the one copy. From the description in the Photos saves disk space by sharing images with your iPhoto or Aperture libraries doc, it looks like that's what happens when you import your iPhoto library into Photos -- both the old iPhoto Library "file" (which actually is a set of folders & subfolders of files) & the Photos Library (also consisting of folders & files) contain links to the master files, but like the Apple doc says, there really is just one set of master files being stored.
This is very similar to the way Time Machine backups look like they have multiple copies of the same unique file, one in each time-stamped backup folder, but there really is only one copy on the Time Machine drive. My guess is Apple is using hard links for this, which means the actual master files will not be deleted from the file system as long as at least one link remains to each of them.
So you should be safe in deleting the old iPhotos Library once you are absolutely sure you don't need it, but to be sure, if it was me I would make a backup just in case, or better yet just leave it alone.

The BPM stops, with a "green flag " in the sxmb_moni enrty

i have a file to file with a BPM,
the BPM contains:
1. a loop which runs five times which contains a receive step with [start transaction] and a using and activating correlation value.
2. a container step that appneds the messages picked one by one through each iteration of loop into a multiline container.
3. a send step.
the purpose is to collect 5 files with a particular correlation value and merge them and send them,
the problem is, as soon as the file is picked and the message is received at the receive step, the BPM stops, with a "green flag " in the sxmb_moni enrty,
i cant make out anything from the PE in the moni entry....
is it some problem with the correlation......help me out...

yes Raj,
i have a transformation step ...that transforms the content of the multiline container into a normal container before sending.............
this is the problem, i can never see the wait symbol, and
its sometimes strange, some times the process ends with "red flag" on the outbound side (right hand side of the moni entry)...
i can see the graphical............
i forgot to mention...all the steps are in a block....
so in the graphical wf log, i can see an error at the entry of the block, except that there is no error.....

Trying to install/format an INTERNAL hard drive using Disk Utility gives me "Error: -69760: Unable to write to the last block of the device". Is that a hardware problem and what could be done about it?

*** PLEASE NOTE*** - This is a query about an INTERNAL HDD not an external one. Thanks.
My Mac is a late 2009 model and the current hard drive recently failed. So I bought a new one, exactly the same, albeit 750gb instead of 500gb. The HDD is a Seagate Momentus 7200. Before the my current drive failed I made a time machine back up to an external USB HDD. I've inserted the HDD into the bottom of my Mac, plugged in the USB and started my machine pressing the 'Option' ([ALT]) key. I go into Disk Utility to try and format the new HDD by creating a new partition but I keep getting the messages,
"Error: -69760: Unable to write to the last block of the device"
or
"POSIX: could not allocate memory"
This is actaully the third HDD I've tried. The first was another Seagate Momentus 7200 500gb, but this time it was a newer model (model number ended in 423AS instead of 420AS - the new one I am trying ends with 420AS, which is the same as the current HDD). I then tried a Western Digital drive but that one didn't even show up in DU. Forums and tech support are suggesting it's faults with the HDDs but surely not three in a row?
Could this be an issue with another part of my Mac?
Is there anything else I can do to format the HDD, have I missed a crucial step?

Did you ever get a resolution to this issue?
I am having that exact error with a new 512GB SSD from Crucial, in a 15" MBP mid-2010.
I really wonder now if the stupid SATA cable could be bad - causing the initial SSD fail. I am replacing it with the EXACT same drive, and getting that "last block" error when i partition in the GUI or from command-line.
thanks!

What is purpose of having an iTunes Library when I already have purchased apps?

I am new to the Apple ecosystem, so please pardon my ignorance here. I am using iTunes on Windows desktop, but I have the same problem on my Mac laptop.
I have some apps purchases that show up when I am in iTunes and select Purchased or Apps.
But when I select the option of My iPhone Apps at the middle top of the screen, or select My iPad Apps, the list of apps is empty. Yet, I clearly have purchasesd some, because they show up under "Purchased."
And when I run the Apps app in my iPhone, it shows the purchased items that are NOT on my iPhone but are ready for downloading to my iPhone.
So, this is making me wonder: What is the purpose of having an iTunes Library for storage or syncing, when I could use the Purchased list?
Am I misunderstanding the reason for having the Library?
thanks

So, it sounds like I should move them to the iTunes Library for both my iPhone and my iPad. I found that if I click the app, it appears in the library. Among the apps that I have purchased, there are some apps that I don't want anymore. So I assume that I should NOT click (i.e. move) those to the Library, right?

Purpose of having central adapter engine

What is the purpose of having Centeral Adapter Engine when any WAS 6.40 has an adapter engine that can communicate de-centrally with the IS?
Regards
chandrakanth.K

Hi Chandra,
The Adapter Engine is a separate software or software component that is automatically installed on the Integration Server. In this case, we will call it as central Adapter Engine. You can also install the Adapter Engine separately on another host. This is then a non-central Adapter Engine.
By installing the adapter engine centrally on Integration Server, all the components like adapter engine, integration engine, mapping runtime etc will be at single place which increases the preformance.
In the case of non central adapter engine, where we will install the adapter engine at another system(may be in another place) which decrease your total server performance.
thanks,

Payment Block at the time of FB60

Hi
I want to have payment block flowing directly in FB60. I shud not enter manually
So what i did:
I went to OBA3. There i defined tolerance group and i gave payment terms as 0002
In that payment terms, i have given payment block key A
But when i did FB60, i saw no payment term and payment block is populated at vendor line item. Let me know the reason why it didn't flow to vendor

Please check, that you are giving that tolerange group in the vendor master in FK02 > Company Code Data > Accounting Information. Also the payment term assigned in OBA3 is used only for residual item creation in F-44.
To fetch the payment block in FB60, you should assign the payment term (having payment block in OBB8) in the vendor master in FK02 > Company Code Data > Payment Transactions.

Pls suggest the BPM design .

Hello,
We are in PI7.1. The requirement is 1:N mapping the file to IDoc ACC_DOCUMENT01. Before calling the Idoc we need to check the Duplicate Invoice BAPI, if the bapi return error code "11" calling Idoc should be skipped. Could you suggest the design for this requirement in BPM. We would like to collect all the messages which returned "11" to dump into a file.
I'm new to PI...any help would be appreciated. I started something like this...but, condition is not working to filter out the messages.
1. receive the file.
2. start the block
2. transform the file to Bapi (1:N)
3. transform the file to Idoc (1:N)
4. check the message exception.
4. cancel the process.
5.end the block
6. start the for block.
7. made the sync call to BAPI.
8. check the response error code is "11".
9 if yes, store the duplicate doc req interface into the container.
10.end the for block.
12. start the for block.
13. check in the switch condition Idoc belnr is the same as container reponse error code 11 belnr. This step is not working.
14 otherwise call the Idoc.
15.end the for block.
16. transform the container req to file.
Thanks,
Santha Kumari

You might have to insert another For Block in the final comparison section. Because you have to check the current belnr with all the error returned belnrs. Then only you would know if you have to send the idoc or stop it.

Error in Block step in BPM.

Hi all,
I am getting the error in block step, my design follows like this i defined one transformation before block step, the transformation step will splits the input bunch of records into equal no of record packets and sent to block step.. while defining block step i used foreach mode, in block step we kept one sync send step which will send message and gets response ....
but my block step is getting error once message enters into the block...
Thanks in advance for your valuable suggestions and solutions...
Srinivas

Hello...
>>the transformation step will splits the input bunch of records into equal no of record packets and sent to block step
The transformation splits the message into bunch.. Put the output in a multiline container and use this in the block step...
>>but my block step is getting error once message enters into the block...
What error are you getting??
>>Thanks in advance for your valuable suggestions and solutions...
Great to know that you are happy with the responses from the community member in this forum.. So I wish to point one more thing here.. Some of the recent threads closed by you were having closing comment as solved.. it will be better if you point out the problem and the solution which you have adopted to solve the same, so that other community member having the same problem will get a speedy solution... This is just a suggetsion from my end...
Thanks
