Question about the Documentat​ion Tags for Source Code

Hello,
I have a question about CVI's automatic source code documentation. My problem is that is seems like you need to write all documentation for a specific tag on one line. If you don't, a line break will be inserted when the documentation is displayed. Suppose I want to write a large amount of documentation for the function itself, using the HIFN tag. If I don't want linebreaks to be forced in the documentation, I need to write all this documentation on one single line, which kinda messes up my code. If I split the documentation over several HIFN tags, the documentation displayed to the user might look messed up because of all the linebreaks. Is there any escape character I can put at the end of a line, allowing me to split the documentation of several HIFN lines without forcing linebreaks in the documentation?
Thanks!

This information is certainly useful. Note, however, that it can also be found in the documentation
Tag
Description
/// HIFN help text
Specifies the help text for the function. Use multiple /// HIFN tags to display help text for the function on separate lines. To separate help text with an empty line, use /// HIFN on a line by itself. You also can use HTML tags, but you must enclose the tags in <HTML><BODY></BODY></HTML> tags.
Example
/// HIFN SampleFunction returns the value of a control.
int SampleFunction (int controlID, ctrlType controlType, char label[], double *value)

  • Simple questions about the Live! Ultra for Notebooks webcam

    Hi there,
    I don't have a notebook, but I have an LCD display and I'm thinking of getting a webcam. Does anyone know if the Live! Ultra for Notebooks can be clipped on something as thick as 3cm?
    Also, does it have an in-built microphone, or is that all in the headset?
    Thanks in advance.
    Charlie

    Charlie,
    The clip of the webcam can be stretch to approximately about .5cm only. Also, the microphone is not inbuilt into the webcam. It's on another seperate headset.

  • Two questions about the logistics of PDF for review...

    Hi experts. I'd appreciate your thoughts on the RH feature "Create PDF for Review". I've come across a couple concerns...
    The instructions say that the source RH files shouldn't be edited/altered while a PDF document of the same material is out for review. This is understandable from a synchronizing perspective. But I'm wondering if any of you think it's a non-starter that the source material is locked. I often can't wait for people to return comments, even by a requested deadline, before making edits. This is my first foray into RH docs, and right now I'm more inclined to use cut-and-paste-in-emails to request and receive doc comments.
    For those of you who do use the feature, and use the shared PDF option, do you know of a service that will host the group-commentable PDFs? Adobe used to have a service for this, but it seems like it is no more. And our IT guy is super security conscious and is so far resistant to have a group-writable directory on one of our servers.
    Thanks in advance for your replies.

    Thanks Jeff. Yes, I believe your right that FM12 no longer is sensitive to changed source code. RH11 (my version) displays a warning that that the source shouldn't be messed with during the review period.
    Hmmm, I'll have to look into the Dropbox or similar service. My sense is that supporting a file sharing service is something that the PDF review mechanism needs to be designed to support. I'll research this.
    Thx again.

  • Question about the New ACR Corrections for Tonal Range

    I find the new set of controls for tonal range in CS7 to be excellent! However, I am curious about what controls what. Black and Shadows work as I would expect but Highlight and Whites do not, at least in terms of traditional photography.
    Highlights and Shadows are grouped together as I would expect, Black and White also. But if we are to continue with that progression, White should control the clipping point and Highlights the values a 2 stops or so above middle gray. I would expect Highlights to be similar to Brightness in CS5 except better behaved. It's reversed. Highlights =Recovery in CS5
    It's confusing so I am suggesting that White control clipping and Highlight the upper values.

    Thank you Patti for your response.
    I think we are coming to this from different perspectives. Being so close to development of the current upgrade, I appreciate your insights as to how these controls work. I, on the other hand, am coming from long experience as a photographer and printer, exceeding 50 years at this point. So I have some legacy points of view, which is why I posted.
    I spent this evening looking more closely. Here is a summary.
    I messed with an excellent example for looking at this question, and I found something interesting. You can fix an image which already has clipping far easier with Highlights, but you cannot force an image with white values well below clipping into clipping using Highlights. The reverse is true with White. So, to fix a white clip, use Highlights, to force a white clip, use White.
    Blacks and Shadows are different. You can both force and fix a Black clip with Black, but Shadows, while possible, has much less range. So Shadows are kind of vernier on Blacks. This is different than  Whites.
    I was basing my OP on only fixing clipping points, that is, bringing an image out of clipping, but not forcing into clipping.
    So, indeed, what you and Jeff point out is closer to correct than my initial assertions. Yours are based on a broader range controls than possible in analog days. In naming these controls, one winds up with a foot in both the digital side and the old analog side, which gave rise to the names and the meanings.
    So thanks to both you and Jeff for taking this up. It forced me into looking more closely at my conclusions, and while they weren't wrong outright, they were inadequate to the present state of the technology. Sometimes, experience can actually get in the way!

  • Question about the jsp:useBean tag

    Hi, I'm a relative newcomer to jsp, but the following piece of javascript code has me very confused:
    <%@ page import="com.jinsoft.bank.web.*" %>
    <jsp:useBean id="account" class="AccountBean" />
    This will result in java.lang.ClassNotFoundException, and it complains that AccountBean cannot be found.
    However, when I fully qualify the class, it works:
    <%@ page import="com.jinsoft.bank.web.*" %>
    <jsp:useBean id="account" class="com.jinsoft.bank.web.AccountBean" />
    Am I doing something wrong?
    Isn't the import tag supposed to help?
    Thanks for any help!

    Hi Kim
    I'm really interested in the particular error that you are generating. I tried this out using Tomcat 3.2.3 and it doesn't seem to be a problem. What application Server are you using?
    Another way to find out if the problem is with the Application Server is to check the .java file that is created out of the jsp page before it is compiled. Individual Application servers have different ways of storing this intermediate .java file but most of them keep it if the compilation does not succeed.
    You may possibly have to file a bug if everything else checks out fine. Another point, are you able to import the same bean into a Servlet and use it there?
    Keep us posted.
    Good Luck!

  • Question about the JSTL forEach tag

    <c:forEach var = "someItem" items="${myBean.getItems}">
    Is this possible if myBean (a Java Bean) contains a function called getItems, which behind the scenes queries the database and stores the results in a structure, such as a list... the list might be an ArrayList or perhaps my own structure which simply extends the ArrayList class.
    The contents of this list will be another object. This object, for example say is a book, which then contains properties such as a title, author, etc.
    Is this possible:
    <c:forEach var = "someItem" items="${myBean.getItems}">
    <c:out value = "${someItem.title}">
    </c:forEach>
    Or does the var HAVE to be a String?

    I try to make and example and I am getting this error:

  • A few questions about the Nokia Lumia 810 for T-Mo...

    I recently upgraded from the Nokia E73 Mode to the Nokia Lumia 810, my first ever "smart phone" and I'm already having problems which I hope can be clarified in this forum/thread.
    1. Supposedly this phone supports USB "drag & drop", but it doesn't seem to fully work for me. An example, with my previous phone I connected via USB cable and dragged computer files (Audio, Video, and Images) from my computer to the memory card of my phone. I can do this with this phone, but only somewhat. Once it's been "copied" to the SD card, I can't really edit the file from there. If I try renaming a music file for example, the window freezes saying "Program Not Responding". If I try to delete the file, it doesn't delete it either. Another big issue is once it's in my Nokia Lumia's SD card and I right-click it from my PC to edit an image with Photoshop, I can't do it. There's no "Open With..." feature. The same with audio files, I can't open with anything other than Windows Media Player, which I don't use. So does this phone really support "drag & drop" or is this just false advertising?
    2. How does one change the message tone? If a so-called "inferior" phone like the Nokia E73 Mode could do it, easily, why can't the superior Windows 8 smart phone do it? The same with an actual ringtone. How does one change it?
    I actually do love this phone, but the whole lack of file manager and it's inability to "drag & drop" files for me disappoints.

    Welcome to the forum.
    the drag m drop is working according to your post. Drag n drop doesn't include altering or editing files directly on the device.
    coming from Symbian, I understand your dilemmas here.
    best to take the file off the device by drag n drop from the device to the PC and then alter it and then drag b drop it back to your device.
    as for the memory card, I have always found it faster to write directly to a card from the PC with an adapter rather then going through the device hardware.
    with wp8, you can only use custom ring tones with what you drag into the ringtones folder when connected.
    I would recommend changing the file genre to ringtone too
    as for the messaging and email sounds currently you are limited to the sounds that available in the device. Not even the custom tones will show.
    hope that helps

  • A question about the XS key

    Hi,
    I have a quick question about the XS key used for Logic. Now, the XS key is a small piece of hardware and it is very susceptible to being misplaced or lost.
    If someone were to lose the XS key, how would one be able to obtain another XS Key? Would that person need to buy Logic all over again? Or can they make a special order to get another one based on proof of ownership of Logic?
    it's just a small question.
    thanks
    -Justin

    There have been threads about this recently if you search for them.
    I think someone said they got theirs replaced for about $80.

  • Hi, I have quick question about use of USEBEAN tag in SP2. When I specify a scope of SESSION for the java bean, it does not keep the values that I set for variable in the bean persistent.Thanks,Sonny

     

    Make sure that your bean is implementing the serializable interface and that
    you are accessing the bean from the session with the same name.

  • Open Question: question to those who comment about the lack of apps for Windows Phone 8

    We have read every Lumia review and we are listening. An open question to those who comment about the lack of apps for Windows Phone 8.Tell us which apps you miss? Nokia/MSFT Customer Care

    The major apps that are missing are Banking Apps.  There are a few, but major banks like Regions Bank, Capital One Bank, are nowhere to be found for Windows Phone.  Microsoft should be pursuing these banks to develop apps for the platform.  Maybe bribe them with free software or tech support or something.  Also some of the dating apps like Grindr for the gay community, Blender for the straight community, are lacking as well.  Perhaps Microsoft could assist them in developing the "unified" app for both Windows and Windows Phone?
    In fact, Microsoft would do well to begin a "Developer Assistance Program" where developers could (for a small fee) contact the DAP Center and get assistance with issues creating apps for the Windows Platform.  If developers know they have a source to go for assistance, they may be more inclinded to develop better apps.

  • Some questions about the integration between BIEE and EBS

    Hi, dear,
    I'm a new bie of BIEE. In these days, have a look about BIEE architecture and the BIEE components. In the next project, there are some work about BIEE development based on EBS application. I have some questions about the integration :
    1) generally, is the BIEE database and application server decentralized with EBS database and application? Both BIEE 10g and 11g version can be integrated with EBS R12?
    2) In BIEE administrator tool, the first step is to create physical tables. if the source appliation is EBS, is it still needed to create the physical tables?
    3) if the physical tables creation is needed, how to complete the data transfer from the EBS source tables to BIEE physical tables? which ETL tool is prefer for most developers? warehouse builder or Oracle Data Integration?
    4) During data transfer phase, if there are many many large volume data needs to transfer, how to keep the completeness? for example, it needs to transfer 1 million rows from source database to BIEE physical tables, when 50%is completed, the users try to open the BIEE report, can they see the new 50% data on the reports? is there some transaction control in ETL phase?
    could anyone give some guide for me? I'm very appreciated if you can also give any other information.
    Thanks in advance.

    1) generally, is the BIEE database and application server decentralized with EBS database and application? Both BIEE 10g and 11g version can be integrated with EBS R12?You, shud consider OBI Application here which uses OBIEE as a reporting tool with different pre-built modules. Both 10g & 11g comes with different versions of BI apps which supports sources like Siebel CRM, EBS, Peoplesoft, JD Edwards etc..
    2) In BIEE administrator tool, the first step is to create physical tables. if the source appliation is EBS, is it still needed to create the physical tables?Its independent of any soure. This is OBIEE modeling to create RPD with all the layers. If you build it from scratch then you will require to create all the layers else if BI Apps is used then you will get pre-built RPD along with other pre-built components.
    3) if the physical tables creation is needed, how to complete the data transfer from the EBS source tables to BIEE physical tables? which ETL tool is prefer for most developers? warehouse builder or Oracle Data Integration?BI apps comes with pre-built ETL mapping to use with the tools majorly with Informatica. Only BI Apps 7.9.5.2 comes with ODI but oracle has plans to have only ODI for any further releases.
    4) During data transfer phase, if there are many many large volume data needs to transfer, how to keep the completeness? for example, it needs to transfer 1 million rows from source database to BIEE physical tables, when 50%is completed, the users try to open the BIEE report, can they see the new 50% data on the reports? is there some transaction control in ETL phase?User will still see old data because its good to turn on Cache and purge it after every load.

  • Three questions about the developer tools

    At my company we have evaluated this very handy tool, and we have only three questions...
    * Will the autocomplete feature be more intelligent. For example pl/sql developer recognize partially written table names and suggest a full name.
    * How to debug and step through the procedures?? This is a MUST!!!!
    * Is it possible to add source control integration (source safe) for the packages/procedures?
    With these features, it will be super!!
    /henrik

    When I was at the VSLive in San Francisco back in February, I spent some time at the Oracle booth and I asked for Source Control also.
    I was told to my happy suprise that lots of other developers had been asking for that also but I was shocked when the Oracle reps told me that they didn't understand why people would want this feature or how they would use it. They tried to convince me that "Generate Create Script" was what I wanted.
    Btw, "Generate Create Script" ticks me off. It always sticks the package owner in the create script and when I check it back in VSS I have to go in and edit it back out!!!
    It seems to me that the mindset behind many Oracle tools is to work "on the database". I will admit that I don't use many Oracle tools. I used Procedure builder a few times but thats about it. To me it seemed pretty clunky, but it was nice to be able to debug a stored procedure. Or it was until you crashed the SP and it became locked in the database and un-updatable without a bounce ;)
    Most developers that I know, prefer to work "on their hard-drives" and publish to the database or some variation on that.
    I would love to see a tool for editing SPs and Packages where I could check out my code, make a change, compile it on the DB, and check my changes back into the source control. One more catch, we use VSS's ability to update the version number in a source code file on check-in so the version that ends up in the DB should have the "new" version number in the comment header.
    Also, the "Auto Code Generation" tool is not geared towards the type of code I write. I thought we were supposed to get away from writing data access code in our forms? Yet, this tool throws all kinds of stuff in for doing just that and no tools to make it easier (that I could find) to create a data acces layer for wrapping my stored procedures and packages. Where are these tools, Oracle? Help us write better code, not worse.
    The autocomplete is nice, but I have trouble with it. For example, if I type a table name and "." it will bring up all the columns in the table. If I type "R" it scrolls to the first column that starts with "R". But if I type "S" next, instead of scrolling to the first column that starts with "RS" it spits out the currently selected column and sticks an "S" on the end. Other times it doesn't work at all.
    The "Query" window is next to useless. It should work more like a SQL Plus (DOS) window. Or at the very least more like a SQL Server Query Analyzer Query window. I'll keep my SQL Plus until this is way better.
    Hopefully the next version (or 2 or 3) will be better. I hope Oracle is listening. They did acknowledge that other developers were asking for some of the same improvements.

  • A question about item "type and release" of  source system creation

    Hello expert,
    I have a question about item "type and release" of  source system creation.
    As we know,when we create a web servie source system,there will display a pop-up which includes three items as "logical system","source system"and "type and release".
    About the item "type and release",when we push "F4" button,there will be three default selections as below:
    "ORA 115     Oracle Applications 11i
    TLF 205     Tealeaf 2.05B
    XPD 020     SAP xPD".
    Who can tell me when and how should I use the three selections.
    And also I attempted to input the item by some optional letters except the default three selections and it seems that I can input it freely.
    Thank you and Best Regards,
    Maggie

    Hello DMK,
    Thank you very much for your answer.It is very helpful for me.
    Can I ask you further about it?
    I got that it is a semantic description item.
    You said the default selections are set by our basis people.Would you like to tell me how should we creat a new value except the default ones for item "type and release"?Only by inputing the value in the item directly?But you see we canot see the new value item we created by ourself when we push "F4" button next time ,is that ok?Or do we have to ask basis people to define one new value item just like the default seletions before we use it.
    Also if possible would you like to describe detail about "This becomes important when you are troubleshooting certain issues especially when RFC connection problems."
    Thank you and Best Regards,
    Maggie
