Question about Compiler Installation

Hi everyone. Haven't been in this forum for a while.
Anyho, I was wondering. I'm about to run a compiler program called "JCreator LE", and I came upon this message:
"In order for you to make use of the java documentation, you need to have a recent version of JDK JavaDocs installed on your system."
Select the JavaDocs home directory: eg. C:\jdk1.4\docs
I tried looking into my jdk1.4.1_04 folder, but I couldn't locate the source.
So what is JavaDocs, and what is the most appropriate site(s) to download this source?
thanks, Greg

The JavaDocs are basically the Java API Documentation. You can download any version at http://java.sun.com/docs/ or you can view the complete API docs online at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/index.html

Basic Questions About Compiling Source

Hi!
I have some very basic questions about compiling source on 10.6. BTW, if the unix discussions still exist, they've hidden them pretty well, so I hope I'm in the right place for this!
First off, you simply cd to the source dir, wherever it may be - in my case ~/Downloads/source/ - and during the install process, everything will be installed in its proper dir, right?
How do you know which compiler to use? There seem to be several: make, gmake, gcc, g++, etc...
Once you do figure out which compiler to run, the process is supposed to go like this, right?
./configure
make (or whatever)
make install
But this doesn't always work for me. For instance, I'm trying to compile 'arm', but it doesn't seem to have a 'configure' script.
$ ls ~/Downloads/arm
ChangeLog
README
armrc.sample
setup.py
LICENSE
arm
install
/src
Maybe it's that 'setup.py' file? What are you supposed to do?
Of course, it's not only this one that's given me trouble. Sometimes the readme will say I have to edit a certain file for my system. Are there just a few standard changes you always make? Or is it...how can I put it...complicated? How do you find out what's needed in those cases?

This is the place for UNIX discussions. If you have developer-related questions, there is a forum dedicated to that as well: Developer Forums

Yes. Hopefully the project you want to install follows standard conventions. If so, you can do "./configure", then "make", and finally "sudo make install" to install the software into "/usr/local".
How do you know which compiler to use? There seem to be several: make, gmake, gcc, g++, etc...
The make file will figure that stuff out.

Yes, with the addition of "sudo" before "make install" because "/usr/local" is owned by root.
But this doesn't always work for me. For instance, I'm trying to compile 'arm', but it doesn't seem to have a 'configure' script.

arm? You mean "arm (anonymizing relay monitor) - Terminal status monitor for Tor relays." You really don't want to be messing with that stuff. The only people involved with Tor that are trustworthy are US Navy intelligence who have their own uses for it. If you don't understand it as well as they do, best stay away.

A question about compiling

Hello, i have a question about compiling. I always presumed that when a class is compiled and then run, the import statements just tell the executing JVM where to look in the JRE for the said imported classes before loading them into memory (is that correct?)
What's confusing me is when happens when I write an applet which utilises the netscape.javascript.JSObject class (which after JRE 1.4.1 resides in the $JAVA/lib/plugins.jar). I have no idea what happens, as in does the relevant code get compiled into my .bin file or is that jar just referenced on the excecuting clients machine, and if the latter what happens if they are using a version before 1.4.2 where this class is residing in lib/jaws.jar, or does that not make any difference as the package names are still the same?
You can see I'm confused and I think this highlights a fundamental gap in my knowledge,
Thanks for any help!

The classes are loaded on application start up. Not allways, no.

If the JVM doesn't find the required class then your application probably won't have had a chance to try and catch the exception.That's exakery why we use reflections to try to load classes which may or may-not exist.
PS: Had to do this with xerces classes to ensure we got the right version despite certain versions of Ant prepending it's version to my classpath, darn thing... sort of an "ehaustive search" for class definitions. Booger of an idea.

Basic questions about JRE installation

I am using NSIS to make a installer, which insalls the JRE 1.5, JMF, Javamp3, then our own software packages.....
Firstly I have some basic question about the general installatio/deinstallation.
1 Why sometimes is it required to reboot computer for the installed software to take effect, e.g.
JRE 1.5. If not, what doest NOT take effect? (Actually in many cases, it seems to work even if not reboot the computer).
Regarding the JRE 1.5,
I am wondering:
1 where is the registry entry written in windows?
2 how to make the JRE installation process silent?
Thanks !

Some basic question about SCM Installation

Hi Folks,
Could you please advice me about some basic questions about SCM and its installation -
Q1. Do I need to have an R/3 System to be able to practice OR demo the SCM system?
Q2. If, yes, which version of SCM is compatible with the ECC 5.0?
Q3. What are the basic requirements to install SCM (version compatible with ECC 5.0) and ECC on a oracle db and windows OS?
Q4. Does SCM have APO and BI as an inbuilt functionality OR does the user need to purchase these as an Add-On?
I know these are some basic questions, but these will help me give me a direction.
With best wishes,
Krishna

Hello Krishna -
Q1. Do I need to have an R/3 System to be able to practice OR demo the SCM system?
---> There are various Modules in SCM Like APO (Sub Modules DP (stand alone), SNP Needs Master data from R/3 and has to pass on transactional Data to R/3, PPDS same as SNP, GATP same as SNP), ICH needs Data from R/3 to work with. Core Interface (CIF) connects R/3 to APO for transferring data.
Q2. If, yes, which version of SCM is compatible with the ECC 5.0?
-->For thorough understanding explore the following links
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm41/helpdata/en/9b/954d3baf755b67e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm50/helpdata/en/9b/954d3baf755b67e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
Q3. What are the basic requirements to install SCM (version compatible with ECC 5.0) and ECC on a oracle db and windows OS?
-->Refer Above
Q4. Does SCM have APO and BI as an inbuilt functionality OR does the user need to purchase these as an Add-On?
--> APO comes with a small BI inbuilt functionality. you can only perform certain functions using that BI.
Hope this helps.

Basic Questions about Package Installation

I have one basic question about installing packages.
How can I find out if needed software is already installed without knowing the name of the package?
For e.g. I want to know, if the MYSQL Server is already installed but I don't know the Package name.
How can I find out the package name of needed software?

Difficult.
Assuming the string "MYSQL" appears somewhere in the package
name or the package description, you can grep the output from
"pkginfo". That is "pkginfo | grep -i sql" would list all installed
packages that contain the substring "sql" with either upper- or
lowercase letters.

A question about Tiger installation via firewire

A friend of mine took her A1055 14.1" 1.33Ghz iBook G4 to someone to have a bad hard drive replaced. Before he returned it, without asking her, he removed Tiger and installed Leopard on it. Her base memory is only 256MB, storage 60GB so, as might be expected, once she reinstalled all the necessary apps she has to use in her line of work, her iBook became sludge. It constantly freezes up; something it never did before he installed Leopard. She can't afford, at this time, to move up to a MacBook, so she's asked me if I can help her get back to TIger. (The guy who installed Leopard isn't interested in correcting things.)
This question, before I begin: I don't have retail TIger disks (and she doesn't, either), but I do have the bundled disks that came with my old pet, an A1054 12" G4. Both iBooks do have DVD drives, but, of course, these are bundled disks. Should I be able to successfully skirt the "bundled" issue and install Tiger on her machine via firewire? I plan to save her important files to a flash before I begin but, since she's running Leopard (if you can call what it's doing "running"...) I'll have to erase her hard drive. I'm hesitant to do this, if someone here knows any reason my 12" bundled software won't work with her 14.1" iBook, even though it was running Tiger before. Since I primarily use a MacBook, I'm a bit reckless when it comes to erasing my own iBook's hard drive, but I'm reluctant to do so to hers, if all I might potentially end up with is an empty iBook.
I've never been afraid to ask a stupid question; see how brave I am.

Getting around to answering the question about my own iBook: the one I keep next to me is model is A1133. Entering its serial number into this site confirms that TIger was its original OS, so those particular bundled disks are to be expected. But my old A1054's serial number reveals, as you pointed out, that it's OS was 10.3.3. This begs the question: why, when I purchased it as a re-furb at my local Apple Store, several years ago, did it come all neatly boxed, not only with user manuals and stickers, but bundled Tiger disks? I suppose "Apple re-furb" is the short answer, but the "bundled" part is a bit fuzzy.
Well, back to the original question, Ronda, regarding my friend's iBook and the fact that the guy who worked on it installed Leopard, without her consent: Yesterday, I was mulling it over, and, remembering that her RAM was only 256, decided that, before I did anything else, I'd up her RAM to see if this helped Leopard run any better. I pulled a 1 GB card from my "parts" iBook and popped it in. I'm running it through its paces, today, to watch its behavior.
If it continues to object to having Leopard as its OS, then would the bundled disks that came with my A1133 allow me to install Tiger onto her HD, via firewire, since its production year was more recent? (I apologize that, at the time I originally posted, I'd not remembered that the A1133 also came with disks. If you could see all the Macs stacked around this place, perhaps you could forgive that oversight.)

A question about the Installation process in general

Hey guys, a general question to the installation process.
The following scenario:
I install a programme on my macbook pro and don't tick all possible installation options (like additional content).
Afterwards I change my mind and want to install the optional content.
So I run the installation programme again and now the question:
If I install the additional content AND the mainprogramme again is the main programme going to be overwritten or am I going to have the mainprogramme twice on my system from now on
Thanks in advance for you help, folks!

If you do a Unicode conversion (no matter in a UC & CU scenario or as a single project) the target system must be empty - means, you will create a new database and load it with the content you exported.
You can't install the export into your already existing database with the same name.

A question about Maveric installer created on a USB key? Can this be used multiple times?

I have downloaded Maveric on a Mac Book Pro.
Then without installing utilising Diskmaker X as suggested using a USB key have created Maveric installer.
My question is that I wish to know if the above created USB installer could be used in more than once to install Maveric?
If I put that above created USB on a Mac Book Air and do the install, and could I use the same USB installer on a second Mac Book Air to install Maveric OS?
This will help not needing to use broadband downloads where restrictions apply?
Regards

Thank you Lanny.
That is great to know about Mavericks.

A question about Oracle installer and a possible bug in JVM

Hello,
I appreciate if you could kindly guide me to solve the following problem.
I'm trying to install Oracle11g Enterprise on a Linux system (Redhat Enterprise 5.3).
There is no X system, and therefore I chose to install by using a response file
in silent mode. I set the parameters value as indicated in Oracle installation
guide. Yet, when I launch the installer, it seems that there is a problem with
java:

Questions about compiling kernel on archlinux

hi...i'm new of this forum and new of archlinux
i'm tryng to compiling a custom kernel in order not to replace the kernel26 package.. i prefere to make it with abs for managing it with pacman.. i followed the wiki but something went wrong.... i used both the pkgbuild i found on the wiki but nothing...can someone help me please??

if it can be of any help, this works for me too. actually, it's the official arch kernel PKGBUILD (maybe not the latest one) that I've just changed according to my needs:

Question about compiled byte code

Howdy folks,
I have a client who wants to run an application in both
on-line and off-line modes. The user could run the application
locally on their laptop making changes and such which would get
stored to local database files (probably FoxPro free tables just to
make it easier on me). Then when the user got back to their
internet connection they could run the application and it would
sync with the online tables (probably MySql tables at that point).
So the question is, if I compile Cold Fusion code into Java
byte code, will it be able to execute independantly of the Cold
Fusion Server? I realize that I could load ColdFusion on the user's
laptop, but I don't think I want to do that. I'm assuming that the
answer to my question will be "No. You can't do that. Cold Fusion
isn't meant to work like that." To which my next question would be,
"Well, what language would be best for the type of application I
have described above? Action Script, maybe?"
Any thoughts are welcome, especially if you've written an
application like the one I've described.
Thanks very much,
Chris

Well, rats.
I wrote a nice reply to your message BKBK, but lost it
because, apparently, my session timed out.
The basic jist, was that I've been working on AJAX, and have
been implementing some AJAX-like techniques at some other clients
(using hidden iframes combined with innerHTML -- I know not a
standard, but darn handy otherwise), but I couldn't see how that
would solve my on-line/off-line problem (unless I stuck with the
cookies idea).
I also did some reading on cookies last night (obviously, I
don't use cookies very often if at all in my daily coding), and I'm
a bit put off by the different browser limitations. I'd hate my
client to be chugging along, entering appointments into the
"database" (read: data being stored as cookies to be sync'd later
when the user goes online), and then suddenly run into the cookie
limitation. On top of that, if I'm reading right, IE (my client's
most likely choise of browser), will not let you know that you've
reached this limit, but will just begin dropping the older cookies
in favor of the newer ones. If I could programmatically sense this
limitation and then write the cookies to some file before
continuing that'd be geat, but since JavaScript can't write files
(that I know of) this isn't feasable. Also, if I could write a file
like that, I wouldn't bother with the cookies.
I think I'm going to end up writing it in FoxPro since my
company has a bunch of copies of it (and it's licenced per
developer and not per copy), and there are lots of folks in my
company who can help me get up to speed. That also means that I'll
probably need to write a web version of the code for when my
client's client's (does that make sense? :-) ) connect to the app
via the internet.
Anyway, I'm really enjoying everyones comments on the
subject. Can anybody think of a technique for a way around the
cookie limitations? Or perhaps another language that this whole
thing could be written in?
I really wish that I could compile my ColdFusion code for use
independant of the CF server. I know, that's not the way it works
and typically not what scripting languages like this are used for.
I suppose I could always install the developer's version of CF on
the user's local machine, write the code in CF and then just detect
whether or not the user is online and behave accordingly.

Question about compiling with different jdk's

Hi, I have a questions which I can't find an answer for.
If I compile my program with jdk 1.6, will some1 be able to run it
using jre 1.5 ?
a) Assuming I don't use any 1.6 new features
b) Assuming I use 1.6 new features.
Btw. I would check myself on other computer with jre 1.5, but right now I can't :-(

Thank you for your reply.
So when I use 1.6 jdk, I can compile my program with
these flags and
I'll be able to run it on the specified release jre
?yes, unless the system is broken in the beta of course.
In other words there is no way that an app compiled
without these flags,
worked on older jre ?yup. Though some betas might default to generating classfiles for 5.0 runtimes by default (some 5.0 betas generated 1.4 classfiles for example).

Question about OS installation

I have some problems with hot keys and I want to reformate my system.
Problem is that I havent created recovery cd before, is it going to work if I do it now.
thanks

Hi
Please dont worry about recovery procedure. It is very simple to do. Put recovery CD into CD/DVD drive, start the notebook and press down C button and keep it pressed for a few seconds. This will force your unit to boot up from CD/DVD drive.
Follow the instruction on the screen. Standard mode will erase the whole HDD and create just one partition. If you have just one partition I recommend you to create two of them. The first one will be used for OS and application installations. The second one can be used for data saving.
If you need more instructions please write again.

A few questions about the installation

Hi,
Our block of flats has just been upgraded to Infinity - I think it's likely to be FTTP as we have a fibre optic 'pullback' cable running around each floor outside the flats.
We have not yet been able to order the service but I have a few questions anyway. Apologies for the lengthy nature but my partner and I are trying to explore all options with regards to installation.
As it's likely FTTP do we need to have the modem in the same place as the existing master socket. Reading this it seems that we could have the modem located in a different place and have some Cat5e/Cat6 cables run prior to installation to link the modem to the router (which would remain near the master socket). Is that something that's feasible?
If we have to route the fibre cable through to the lounge, what lengths will the engineer go to in order to aid a discrete run? Can they do things like routing through drywall voids where accessible without structural work beyond drilling a hole? Ideally we would need to drill some holes anyway, are they happy doing more than just the one to bring the cable into the flat?
If the engineer is not able to be overtly flexible, can additional cabling be left in a loop with a view to us conducting future work, things like burying the cable into the drywall? Can the cable even be moved once it's connected to the modem? Does moving the modem cost?
Hopefully someone will be able to advise. It's been a long battle to get the infrastructure put into place and I'm looking forward to getting access to Infinity as soon as possible
Thank you for any replies

My understanding is that you don't even need a phone line for fibre therefore you don't need a master socket. That being the case, if you do have a phone line then master socket does not need to be anywhere near the fibre modem. You will find that usually you will have to have a phone line installed as part of the package.
EDIT: You should run Ethernet cable from where the modem will be placed to where you want the homehub/router sited.
