Questions about supporting TLF with Halo components in Flex 4.1

We recently decided to upgrade to the Flex 4.1 SDK after a year or so at 3.2. We have been asked to not use the new SPARK components yet because our products would then have a mistmatch of Halo and Spark components in the UI. We have built support for our Halo components to display html through the ".htmlText" property for the Text components. For example, we can display strings such as "<p>Choose <b>one</b> option:</p>". With the upgrade to Flex 4.1 a couple of questions about supporting bi-directional text have come up. My understanding is that in order to support bi-directional text we need to use the Text Layout Framework. Does anyone have a suggestion on how we can utilize the TLF with the Halo components in Flex 4.1? Can we still use the ".htmlText" property somehow or is there a new property that understands the TextFormat markup? We would love to still be able to use the limited html tags that are supported for the "htmlText" property. Is there an option where that syntax is still understood?
Thanks in advance!
David

The halo components use TextField, and the spark components use TLF. Both sets have support for some html markup to import and export text. To use bidi text, you have to use TLF; TextField won't work properly.
It is possible to use TLF to build your own components, and this can work well particularly for applications with specialized needs. But if you need bidi support for advanced components like DataGrid and List, then you should use the spark components.
Thanks!

A question about a method with generic bounded type parameter

Hello everybody,
Sorry, if I ask a question which seems basic, but
I'm new to generic types. My problem is about a method
with a bounded type parameter. Consider the following
situation:
abstract class A{     }
class B extends A{     }
abstract class C
     public abstract <T extends A> T someMethod();
public class Test extends C
     public <T extends A> T someMethod()
          return new B();
}What I want to do inside the method someMethod in the class Test, is to
return an instance of the class B.
Normally, I'm supposed to be able to do that, because an instance of
B is also an instance of A (because B extends A).
However I cannot compile this program, and here is the error message:
Test.java:16: incompatible types
found   : B
required: T
                return new B();
                       ^
1 errorany idea?
many thanks,

Hello again,
First of all, thank you very much for all the answers. After I posted the comment, I worked on the program
and I understood that in fact, as spoon_ says the only returned value can be null.
I'm agree that I asked you a very strange (and a bit stupid) question. Actually, during recent months,
I have been working with cryptography API Core in Java. I understood that there are classes and
interfaces for defining keys and key factories specification, such as KeySpec (interface) and
KeyFactorySpi (abstract class). I wanted to have some experience with these classes in order to
understand them better. So I created a class implementing the interface KeySpec, following by a
corresponding Key subclass (with some XOR algorithm that I defined myself) and everything was
compiled (JDK 1.6) and worked perfectly. Except that, when I wanted to implement a factory spi
for my classes, I saw for the first time this strange method header:
protected abstract <T extends KeySpec> T engineGetKeySpec
(Key key, Class<T> keySpec) throws InvalidKeySpecExceptionThat's why yesterday, I gave you a similar example with the classes A, B, ...
in order to not to open a complicated security discussion but just to explain the ambiguous
part for me, that is, the use of T generic parameter.
The abstract class KeyFactorySpi was defined by Sun Microsystem, in order to give to security
providers, the possibility to implement cryptography services and algorithms according to a given
RFC (or whatever technical document). The methods in this class are invoked inside the
KeyFactory class (If you have installed the JDK sources provided by Sun, You can
verify this, by looking the source code of the KeyFactory class.) So here the T parameter is a
key specification, that is, a class that implements the interface KeySpec and this class is often
defined by the provider and not Sun.
stefan.schulz wrote:
>
If you define the method to return some bound T that extends A, you cannot
return a B, because T would be declared externally at invocation time.
The definition of T as is does not make sense at all.>
He is absolutely right about that, but the problem is, as I said, here we are
talking about the implementation and not the invocation. The implementation is done
by the provider whereas the invocation is done by Sun in the class KeyFactory.
So there are completely separated.
Therefore I wonder, how a provider can finally impelment this method??
Besides, dannyyates wrote
>
Find whoever wrote the signature and shoot them. Then rewrite their code.
Actually, before you shoot them, ask them what they were trying to achieve that
is different from my first suggestion!
>
As I said, I didn't choose this method header and I'm completely agree
with your suggestion, the following method header will do the job very well
protected abstract KeySpec engineGetKeySpec (Key key, KeySpec key_spec)
throws InvalidKeySpecException and personally I don't see any interest in using a generic bounded parameter T
in this method header definition.
Once agin, thanks a lot for the answers.

Question about Logon ticket with user mapping at BI-JAVA environment

We're implementing BI 7.0 including BI Java and SAP EP for end user
access.
I have two question about SSO method when we're using BI Java.
I know we can simply configure SSO logon ticket with BI-Java(EP
included) and BI-ABAP through BI template installer and we already
succeeded in that case.
But the problem is we want to change it to user mapping SSO method for
some our internal reason.
After we configure user mapping SSO, we've got SSO failed error when we
call BI-Java stuff like BEx Web Application iView.
After many testing implemented, we found SSO Logon ticket with user
mapping (using SAP reference system). It seems working now.
But our question is "Is it no problem when we use SSO logon ticket with
user mapping?" Is there any restriction or issue?
One more question is we can ONLY use user base mapping when reference
system used. How can we assign BI-ABAP users to EP Group?

Using an SAP Reference system is allright. But if the reason u r going for this is because of different usernames in EP and BI, why dont you go for user mapping.
Anyways, on restriction of reference syetms is that you can have ONLY ONE reference system defined in portal. In you case you can only have the BI system defined.
Hope this helps!!

Questions about PDF exporting with InDe CS5.5

Hey all,
A couple questions about exporting to PDF from the latest version of InDe.
First, I have noticed that it seems to take a lot longer to get to a PDF. Any suggestions for how to speed up the process? It took 8 minutes or so to generate a low-res PDF (for print) of a 24pp document with a few placed images and vector graphics. Wow, that's a long time to wait, especially for a proof.
Second, the background task... if I get it going on making that 8-minute PDF and then work some more on the document, what exactly is in the PDF? Usually I save before making a PDF or printing. So, is the last version saved what will be in the PDF?
(As an aside, this ability to work on the doc while generating a PDF seems kind of weird. Generally one makes a PDF for proofing, or even for printing, when all the changes have been made and everything is "final". So, I see no benefit to being able to work on my document while it's making a PDF, as I'm probably finished making revisions for the time being. I have to say that I kind of like the progress bar you get when you make an interactive PDF, as you know you can't work on the document when that's on the screen... )
Thanks as always.

Yes, this is abnormally long (and too long), something is wrong. What's the full version of InDesign you are running, as reported by holding down Cmd or Control and selecting About InDesign?
Second, the background task... if I get it going on making that 8-minute PDF and then work some more on the document, what exactly is in the PDF? Usually I save before making a PDF or printing. So, is the last version saved what will be in the PDF?
Saving is not related. InDesign makes a database snapshot of your document the moment you begin the PDF export, and makes the export relative to that snapshot, regardless of edits you continue to make during the export process, and regardless of saving. Of course saving first is a good idea, for several reasons, not the least of which it sounds like something's fairly seriously wrong with your document or your InDesign installation.
We recommend you trash your preferences and export your document to IDML and see if either of those things changes this 8-minute behavior...err, assuming you're running 7.5.2.318.

Yeah, I think the primary benefit is if you are likely to work on 2 or more files in parallel, so you can finish A and export A and then switch to B. If you'd like a dialog box to pop up when export is done, check out my exportPop script from this post: ANN: automatic dialog after background export (exportPop.jsx.

A few questions about using PS3 with 27" iMac display...

Hey people, I had a few questions about how I could possibly get my ps3 connected to the iMac's 27" screen. First of all, could you guys list some adapters that would be able to convert the HDMI to Mini displayport? That would be great. The only one I know of is that Dr. Bott Digital Video link.
Okay secondly, I was wondering if I do get the the ps3 connected with the iMac's display with an adapter to convert HDMI to mini DisplayPort, would it be in HD? Would I be able to play ps3 games or watch blu-ray movies in 1080p HD format?
Thanks!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
This has been asked a number of times here since the intro of the 27" iMac. The answer is very expensive US$149 or more converters and sometimes even more expensive to maintain the resolutions that you seek.

Question about 360 movieclip with cursor action

Hello Flash Forum
We have a question about a 360 flash / movieclip which comes
to a halt or jumps to whereever the cursor is moved horizontally
while any vertical movements is ignored. We are having difficulties
to implement this and would like to ask whether someone can point
us into the right direction in Flash 8 - read somewhere that this
is extremely easy in Flash 8 but we cannot find out how!?
An example would be:

and then chosing 'Go 360'
Thank you for any assistance and/or direction.

Question about accessing CIFS with LUM user (permissions)

Hi there,
I have a question related to accessing a CIFS mount throught a user in a linux box.
First of all, its a system based in OES11 sp2 & SLES 11 SP3. I have a cifs mount
in /media/nss, with novell cifs, coming from a NSS Filesystem. This mount is mounted
with a username/password with password policy, etc. I have four users LUM-enabled,
in the Linux box, which should access the CIFS mount, but I have a permission denied.
I have set trustees for the primary group for the 4 lum-enabled users and also I have
addedd permissions for a group in the NSS volume, and add this group to the membership
of the users, but doesnt works.
I guess Im missing something or Im doing something wrong. Could anybody give me a pointer?
Thanks!

Question about using RE1000 with EA6500

I have an EA6500 route but having problem getting wireless signal to one room in my house. As a result, I am thinking about buying RE1000.
If I buy this unit, will I need to connect to a different network when using wireless devices in the room near the extender.
Or will both the extender and router operate as a single wireless network name? If they both operate under a single wireless name, how will I know the extender is connecting and working.
Please let me know. Thanks.

Just to answer your question, RE1000 will extend your router's main wireless network - so they will operate with single / same wireless network name. You'll know that the extender is connected and working if you'll be able to see the RE1000 listed on your router's DHCP client's table.
If everyone needs to believe in something, I believe I'll have another beer..

Question about same emails with others

Good afternoon, the other day I walked into
yahoo.com, because I wondered if
I had done earlier account there.
So, when I tried to log in, I chose
that I can not remember my identity
and asked me to write the security email
I would have put in during my
recording time. Me, I put
my mainly EMAIL, which is: [email protected]
After some time I realized that
some unknown had used my email
as security email to his account
on yahoo. Later I checked the
recent activity in my email in hotmail
and indicate places where I have not been
in any of the times I entered my
account. Finally, there are some messages
about verifying my identity to an account
of Apple, which does not come from
me. My question is whether it is possible
to have the same email with
these girls, who have the same name and
the same first letter on their surname
as me?? Thank you in advance!

Question about support of multiple languages by installer (after modification)

We are currently developing the plug-in of Adobe Illustrator CS5.
I have a question on how to support multiple languages by that plug-in.
I want to specify a path according to a language of Ai and then install the swatch file when installing the plug-in(Extension) by Extension Manager.
However, the swatch file cannot be placed in a desired path.
The folder of swatch libraries to which Ai refers difffers from language to language, so I want to place the swatch file only in an appropriate path according to a language of Ai...
    Japanese version of Ai    : [Ai installation path]/Presets/ja_JP/スウォッチ
    English version of Ai    : [Ai installation path]/Presets/en_US/swatches
*In the case that the plug-in is installed into Japanese version of Ai, the expected result is that the swatch file is placed only in "[Ai installation path]/Presets/ja_JP/スウォッチ.
As a way to place the swatch file according to a language of Ai, I described the following contents in MXI file(project.mxi) and then installed the plug-in.
    URL that I referenced : http://help.adobe.com/en_US/extensionmanager/cs/using/packaging_extens ion.pdf
--The contents of MXI file--
<macromedia-extension name="Extension Name"
name_resid="name_ID" version="1.0.0" ismultilingual="true" >
          -<omitted>-
<files xml:lang="en_US">
<file source="en_US/test.ai" destination="$presets/en_US/swatches"/>
</files>
<files xml:lang="ja_JP">
<file source="ja_JP/test.ai" destination="$presets/ja_JP/スウォッチ"/>
</files>
<files xml:lang="it_IT">
<file source="it_IT/test.ai" destination="$presets/it_IT/swatches"/>
</files>
When I installed the plug-in by the installer created by using the MXI file above, the swatch file(test.ai) was placed not in "$presets/ja_JP/スウォッチ" but in "$presets/en_US/swatches".
Is there anything wrong with the MXI file above?
Also, is there any way to place the swatch file in a desired path according to a language of Ai other than this way.
If someone knows it, please let me know.

Naive question about erasing everything with reinstall.

Due to keychain problems with which the Apple techs were unfamiliar, they suggested that I back up what I need, and then erase everything before reinstalling. So, my naive question is: How do I get back all of the software with which my iBook came preloaded? (If it matters, my install disc is 10.4.3; I'm updated to 10.4.8)
iBook Mac OS X (10.4.8) G4

Along with that question, does that mean that all of my iTunes that I purchased and filed away will be lost as well on a clean re-install? I did backup my tunes after every monthly purchase. However, I am concerned about them and the school work and Adobe software I put on there-! I have all teh Adobe discs, but will there be a complication when doing this? I had to do this because the iBook just froze on the apple icon and nothing more after having probs with it for weeks, namely, the "permissions" issue; it thought that I was and was not the Admin-! It finally crashed on my after a Restart...
Frustrating and sad...

Question about mac mini with Mac OS X Server

Hello forum,
first I want to say hello to each, because this is my first post in this forum.
I want to buy a mac mini, but I have further questions before i buy.
My Situation is, that currently I have a windows and a linux server (Windows => Exchange and Linux as a build server). Now i want to remove such servers and replace it with one mac mini server.
1.) Currently I have an exchange server...Is it possible to use Mac OS X Server to work like an Exchange server?
2.) I plan to use it as a build server which generates bundled software for Mac OS, Windows and Linux (Windows and Linux where running in VMWare Sphere)
Is this possible with it?
Thanks in advance
Best Regards
Roman80

1.) Currently I have an exchange server...Is it possible to use Mac OS X Server to work like an Exchange server?
That depends on how deeply-embedded you are into Exchange.
If by 'Exchange' you mean the basic email/messaging tools then yes, but if you mean the full MAPI client/SharePoint/messaging/sync/compliance tools then no.
2.) I plan to use it as a build server which generates bundled software for Mac OS, Windows and Linux (Windows and Linux where running in VMWare Sphere)
This isn't an option. vSphere will not install on a Mac Mini. The only VMWare option for the Mac Mini is VMWare Fusion, which does allow running client OS systems in a virtual machine, but does not support the full suite of VMWare functionality. Whether it has enough for your needs cannot be determined without more details of how you expect this to work - if it's just a matter of having a Visual Studio running in a Windows VM, and some other compiler running in a Linux VM then it may be possible, it just depends how deep you need to go.

A Question about Windows games with boot camp and system requirements

I don't plan to play many games on my Mac, but after seeing what can be done with it, I've been entertaining the idea of picking up a Windows game or 2 to play in Boot Camp (considering picking up a XP PRO with SP2 for this).
My question is about the listed systed system requirements and how they might apply to my Mac Pro. I have a dual 2.26.
As a specific example, I was looking at the game Fallout 3. The box lists a 2.4ghz processor required but I've read on this forum about people running it great with less on their Mac.
So I was wondering what I would need to consider when looking at those requirements or if games in that range do indeed run well...

Thanks Kap, you're always helpful.
That's exactly what I was wondering. How the requirement on the box applied to having an 8 core at a lower clock speed.
I was looking at XP home at amazon and newegg, but haven't been able to tell if they are 64 or 32 (unless that means just install that version from the disc).
It's nothing pressing, just something I was entertaining for now.

Newbie Questions About Installing Windows with Boot Camp

1. Doing all this installation will anything made for PC work?
2. I only have Windows XP will that work? And then do all the SP updates after it's installed?
3. If I have to use Windows XP SP2 is this one a good one to buy?

Hi Karen and welcome to Discussions,
The only reason I want to use Windows is to be able to download games from the internet that are not made for Mac only for PC and I have a few questions:
1. Doing all this installation will anything made for PC work?
Nearly anything. There are some Windows programs using hardware dongles that don't run.
2. I only have Windows XP will that work? And then do all the SP updates after it's installed?
You need a Windows XP CD with at least Service Pack 2 (SP2) incorporated.
3. If I have to use Windows XP SP2 is this one a good one to buy?
http://www.cdsfu.com/index.php?categoryID=87
another user round here had already asked about that website.
Three things about this offer are, at least to me, very suspicious:
"Microsoft Windows XP Professional Edition With SP2, Full Version on CDR"
Microsoft never has used CD-R disc (CD-Recordable) for Windows
"software that does NOT include any COA label or a sticker from the manufacturer"
There always has to be a sticker, that one puts on the computer on which the Windows license is installed and a COA label as well.
"VOLUME LICENSE INCLUDED"
A volume license, from my understanding, was only sold to companys, who install Windows on a larger scale (hundreds of computers) and for that purpose are given only one license-key for all installations.
Usually this is known as a'corporate license'.
All in all, I would personally stay away from this offer. It simply doesn't sound legal to me.
4. After everything is installed do I have to use an anti-virus?
When running Windows a decent Anti-Virus software is a must.
I want to thank you for your help as you can see I really am a newbie.
You're welcome anytime. Hope it helps.

Question about X-series with the bundled 65W adapter, gets very hot

Hi all,
My company purchased many X230 notebook in last year.
some are standard configuration (i3 CPU) and some are (i5 CPU).
The i3 seems to have no problem.
However, the i5 model had some issue that it can't full run all the 4-core in high load when connecting the bundled 65W AC adapter, and the adapter got hot. After investigation, we change to 90W AC adapter and the problem is gone. All the 4-core runs correctly and the 90W AC adapter is cool.
The reseller said that the 65W should be factory package and they will not provide any warranty if we use it incorrectly with the 90W adapter (but the lenovo homepage says the adapter supports....).
Now, we are considering the X230i model with the same upgrade to i5 CPU.
Can someone provide feedback if using the X230 / X230i + i5 CPU normally with 65W AC adapter?
Regards,
Donald

Could this be the same or related issue?
I have a T430s with integrated graphics and dual core i5 CPU. According to Lenovo sales literature this system will work with a 65W AC adapter. Also when I ordered the system online from Lenovo's site I was also given the option to select either a 65W or 90W adapter.
At the office I use a 90W adapter. The system idles at under 40°C with the fan usually not spinning or spinning at slowest setting (according to TPFanControl) even when the system is under load. It may get as hot as 50°C when the system is under heavy load. But I've never seen it overheat or had the fan spin continuously at maximum speed, etc.
When travelling I use a 65W adapter in order to minimize size and weight. In that situation the fan is always running and temperatures are usually in the 50°C to 60°C range. On more than one occasion system temperature has "run away" getting increasingly hotter, going to 80°C or 90°C.
In one case the system shut itself down. I let it cool down overnight. When I rebooted I got a fan error. After that incident I sent the T430s to Lenovo for repair. The technicians found nothing wrong. From their report it's not clear if they replaced the fan or not. Nevertheless this "run away" temperature situation has recurred since then.
From reading posts on this thread and based on my experiences with the T430s it seems to me that the 65W adapter doesn't have enough power for even a basic T430s despite what Lenovo's marketing literature may say.
I wonder if the same conclusion doesn't also apply to your systems? Do your temperature issues go away when your system runs on a 90W adapter?
