Question with how to know if a String contains int,double,or common String?

I'm doing table sorting now and wanna make a "generic" method of comparing 2 Strings:
if they are common Strings , just use String.compareTo()
if they are int or double etc, compare which is bigger
BTW: I have thought about using try{...}catch{...} to catch NumberFormatException , but i don't wanna use this way.

check to see if each char is numeric? (or '.')....
I dont see much wrong with parseInt/parseDouble +
exception catching thothe compare() method is invoked hundreds and thousands times, so I guess using too much try{}catch{} is not a good thing, am I right?

How to know which hard drive contains the OS in Hp Pavilion dv7-4069wm? Upgrading.

I'm thinking about upgrading one of my hard drives (320GB ea) in my HP Pavilion dv7-4069wm laptop for more storage. I would like to keep the drive that contains the OS to avoid the hassle of making a copy, but I'm not sure which one that is. I haven't replaced a hard drive before, let alone a dual drive. I recently added more RAM and noticed both hard drives looked the same. Can anyone tell me how to know the difference? .

Question on how to retrieve elements in workflow container using WAPI

Hi all, I need your great help. I have started a workflow and during it running I want get element in workflow container. First I use SAP_WAPI_READ_CONTAINER to get a workflow container which called "simple_container", but I can not get element using SWC_GET_ELEMENT because the container type I got does not match the type TABLE SWCONT.
I have loop the container and could see the elements in the container, but I am not quit sure that I can get the element with its own type. For example, I have an internal table in container, when I loop to it and get its value, it can not be assigned to my local internal table variable for the type incomptible.
Could any one give me some advice? Thank you very much!

Thanks for your advice. I think I have found the way to do that by inside into the source code sap provide. The steps are as follows:
1 If the element you want get in container is char-based, just get container use 'SAP_WAPI_READ_CONTAINER' and loop into it to retrieve what you want.
2 If you want get element in other types, eg, internal table, then use:
lv_wi_handle TYPE REF TO if_swf_run_wim_internal,
cnt TYPE REF TO if_swf_cnt_container.
CALL METHOD cl_swf_run_wim_factory=>find_by_wiid
        EXPORTING
          im_wiid     = wi_id
        RECEIVING
          re_instance = lv_wi_handle.
      cnt = lv_wi_handle->get_wi_container( ).
CALL METHOD cnt->IF_SWF_CNT_ELEMENT_ACCESS_1~ELEMENT_GET_VALUE
       EXPORTING NAME = 'element_name'
       IMPORTING VALUE = element_value.
The variable element_value is just in your own type~.
Hope it useful to you, the reader.

How to know whether a node contains a point after transformation?

I have tried the contains function but i can't make it after transformation such as changing the scaleX,rotate or any other things.

How to know previous navigation item during runtime in Forms

Navigation: US Super HRMS Manager --> People --> Enter and Maintain.
On the Find Person window --> Query a Person
On the People Window, there is an Assignment Button. When clicked, it will open new window "Assignment".
At this point 'WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE' is fired for the item 'ASSGT. ORGANIZATION_NAME'.
There is DFF on this window and when DFF is closed by pressing OK button, 'WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE' is fired again for the item 'ASSGT. ORGANIZATION_NAME'.
Hence my question is how to know if the previous item is DFF or not.
Thanks in Advance.

How I know if company db is updated

Hi all,
a simple but I believe very important question. How I know if a user has accessed the company db? (I mean by execute insert and/or update in MSSQL).
Are any logs to be checked?
Thanks in advance,
Vangelis

Hello Vangelis,
What do you exactly want?
Would you like to see if an user is currently logged in? You can take a look in the sql manager, to see the "activity monitor". This info is also provided by an stored procedure which you can excute. You cann't check the SBO username.
If you would like to know when the user is last logged in execute this query:
select lastLogin, * from ousr

How to know Partikular Attribute belongs to which Characteristic

Hi, I have a doubt about Attribute,
For example I have a info object 0REJECTN_ST ( Rejection Status ) , my question is How to know this Attribute belongs to which Characteristic , I have to load the Master Data for 0REJECTN_ST, when I am SD master data Info sources this is not available in master data info source , when I am going to create master data info source for 0REJECTN_ST, system is giving the message
<b>Characteristic 0REJECTN_ST cannot be a master data InfoSource,</b>
If I want to load status related data , How to load ?

Shaik,
ooks like the IOBJ was created without texts or attributes. You would not be able to load any textx or attributes against the same.
use the where used option and find out where the IOBJ has been used and then you can look at how best you can att the descriptions to the IOBJ.

How to know Transparent gateway version

dear all,
Facts:
WIN 2008 AND MSSQL SERVER 2008
AIX 5.3 AND ORACLE 10.1
how i know the version of Oracle Transparent Gateway from :
- Oracle MS SQL Server 2008
- Oracle 10.1
how can i view that ???
thanks a lot !!!

Sorry, but it is not really clear what yo mean with:
how i know the version of Oracle Transparent Gateway from :
- Oracle MS SQL Server 2008
- Oracle 10.1
You can check the vesion of an installed gateway using Oracle Universal Installer which can list which products are installed or you can use opatch lsinventory -detail.
You can also check the listener - it contains PROGRAM=<executble> and now type the name of the executable on the command line. It will now report which gateway and which version you've installed.
If you're interested in which gateway can be used - then the only supported release is 11g which is certified with Oracle 10.1.0.5 + an additional gateway compatibility patch.

How to create dynamic connection string with variables using ssis.

Hello,
Can anyone let me know on how to create dynamic connection string with variables using ssis?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi vinay9738,
According to your description, you want to connect multiple database from multiple servers using dynamic connection.
If in this case, we can create a Table in our local database (whatever DB we want) and load all the connection strings. We can use Execute SQL Task to query all the connection strings and store the result-set in a variable of object type in SSIS package.
Then use ForEach Loop container to shred the content of the object variable and iterate through each of the connection strings. And then Place an Execute SQL task inside ForEach Loop container with the SQL statements we have to run in all the DB instances.
For more details, please refer to the following blog:
http://sql-developers.blogspot.kr/2010/07/dynamic-database-connection-using-ssis.html
If there are any other questions, please feel free to let me know.
