Questions for reverse engineers or cl programmers or others, who knows

Hi, please, can somebody answer me on my easy questions.
1. have you some info (or source code) and, ofcourse, want you toshare it for me,about the way creative changes sound card mode (something about COM Objects from CtCadiEp.dll and IID_IMode interface)
2. Why creative make this so difficult I want to add to my game app what are using OpenAL ability to correctly set Game Mode on init and restore last mode on exit. Can't they add to there drivers dll with two functions: SetMode and GetMode This will grow them in myeyes. Any of Mode Changers work in bad way - they change mode than app is already launched - so sometimes there is no sound at all in result. I don't want to add Sleep() to my audio render initialization for compatibility with them...

Question for Jerry H or Shane R or other Masters

Just revisiting this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4326175&#4326175
Would (do) you have any reservations in running both Media Composer (software only or with Mojo) and Final Cut Pro on the same computer.
Obviously OS's and QT versions have to comply, but any other things to worry about?

Same computer? No. But I'd run them off of different partitions or different hard drives all together. This way you have a separate OS and QT version for each application (because the can both be picky as to what they need to work properly), and you avoid any codecs or system resources from one system interfering with the other.
Get yourself a 400 or 500GB hard drive, partition it into two drives, install the OS on both, then FCP on one partition and AVID on the other.
Man...after editing with an Avid for a few weeks, I certainly would like to have a copy of the new Media Composer software. But at $5000...it is too cost prohibitive at this point.
And I wonder if I can get my Kona LH to work with the Avid software...

Using accrual engine for reversal of month end provisions

Hello everyone,
I am working on a requirement to set up accrual engine for automatic reversal of month end provisions (like electricity expense provision at month end which will be reversed on first day of next month).
I understand that accrual engine is meant for handling accruals and deferrals. But having seen the manual option of FBS1 and F.81, I felt there must be an option in the accrual engine also to handle provisions and their reversal. Also, I saw some comments in this forum that using accrual engine it is possible to automatically reverse the postings.
So I set up a test scenario in sandbox client with basic configuration for Manual Accruals (accrual type, methods, object category, number ranges, account determination)
After that I created an accrual object which automatically created an FI document for the provision entry. So far it is fine and working as expected. Now, for reversing the document, I see two options:
1) Reverse entire accrual run; or
2) Reverse the accrual object.
By reversing the accrual object, I was able to post a reversal FI document. I am not sure whether reversal of entire accrual run is right option since SAP help recommends to use this in case wrong key date was used.
But both options require manual execution for reversal.
Am I missing some other option? Is there any other option/setting in the accrual engine where it is possible to set up automatic reversal of a month end provision? Only if this is not feasible, I would look at other solutions (like FBS1+F.81 or FBS1+background job for F.81).
Any inputs/pointers from the learned members will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Raghu

Hello Raghu,
As far as I know, all clients I worked with preferred using "FBS1+background job for F.81" as they found this more flexible (adapt job variant and possible dynamic selection), easy to maintain and well understood by accountants (rather than using accrual type, methods, object category...)

Question for experienced SDDM modelers

Questions for the more experienced or knowledgeable SDDM users. Knowing what you know now, what advice do you have for experienced data modelers but newbies to the SDDM tool? Are there any posts in this forum you've found most helpful in this regard or to the questions below? I've taken the OTN online training and reviewed the documentation.
I've been data modeling for more than 15 years with ERwin and PowerDesigner and prior to that used Bachman and ADW. Just started a data modeling job that requires me to use a free DM tool (at least for awhile) so I found SDDM.
What SDDM features have you found most useful? and what are short-comings and the work-arounds you've employed?
Have you used SDDM for Dimensional models? Any advice on engineering between Log DM, Rel DM and Dim DMs?
Thank you in advance for any tips!

Please answer a programming question for an admin

I'm not a programmer (although my interest is growing), so I can't answer this question in a discussion regarding how Win32API w/OLE and COM is SO much better than programming for Unix/OS X applications.
The original discussion was in regards to OS X's superior Unix based security, he devolved to this. Having only begun my venture into programming, his questions are a little above my head at this point. I'm also interested (as an amature programmer), how this would be accomplished in OS X/Unix.
Thanks in advance.
Here's his position:
*(1st entry)*
I have unsed Windows and many flavors of Unix and I have written programs in Assembler, Fortran, Pascal, Cobol, RPG, Smalltak, Basic, PowerBuilder, Delphi, C, C++, C#, Java, and Perl, and I have been programming for over 20 years, so I do have extensive knowledge about programming.
So I have one question for you:
If you had to build a business application that has to allow users to, spell and grammer check, and perform financial calculations, and render the HTML, how would you compare the effort to do this in Windows versus that in Linux, AIX, Solaris or any other Unix operating system?
I can make this business application have these features in ONE DAY on Windows, because COM and OLE lets me, use Word to spell and grammer check, Excel to do the financial calculations, and IE to render the HTML!
I make my living building complex customized business software, and Windows allow me to build these applications by myself in weeks, when it would take me and a team of programmers months to do these same things in Unix because of the lack of an the Win32 API, COM, and OLE, or I would have to BUY third party libraries that did these things, and deal with the licensing, versioning, and vendor problems that go with them, and none of those third party librabries would be close to Word, Excel, and IE in CAPABILITY!
HONESTLY tell me and others reading this thread how you would go about create the customized business application I described above by yourself in a Unix instead of Windows, and tell us how many MONTHS or YEARS it would take you, or how you would have to BUY some other third party libraries to do what Word, Excel, and IE!
Anyone who thinks a Unix has more CAPABILITIES than Windows, has never used Win32API/COM/OLE/.Net, and does not build customized complex business software for a living, because we people that do are the reason that you find some much customized business desktop software for Windows, and so little for any Unix.
I have nothing against Unix, and it is great for simple business tasked server software, but for complex business tasked desktop software Windows with Win32API/COM/OLE/.Net wins hands down!
*(2nd Entry)*
A System administrators view of an operating system and an application developers view are entirely different, and the Win32API/COM/OLE/.NET simply make my job so much easier, and you simply don't understand because you do not have to deal with the "dirty' details of making what a user wants, which is why your definition of "integration" and mines are totally different!
With the spell check you talked about, how will you keep in in synch with the dictionary in Word where the user is constantly adding and removing words?
No, you would have the user to have to maintain two different spell check dictionaries, and you would totally ignore the grammer check requirement!
Cutting and pasting data between applications is simple integration, and not the complex type that I am talking about.
Can you make your application display and use the MacGourmet menus appear in its own window, and to access and use the MacGourmet functionality (ie. search for a recipe) in its own window?
Give me one example of a Unix application that can display the menus of another application, yet alone control its features!
Of course you can't, because you need COM and OLE!
I am quite familiar with different flavors of Unix, but those operating systems do not have the rich API and program integration features namely COM and OLE that Windows has, because it violates the Unix idea of security by process isolation!
Yes that idea of process isolation keeps the operating system safe from malicious code in applications and from one application taking the others down, but you lose the power of programs working together, and you simply cannot build the type of customized business applications that I build by myself, without reinventing the wheel over and over and without having a large team with lots of programmers.
For example, my customers and millions of others spend all day working in Word and Excel, and the Windows idea that I can transparently integrate my complex business applications right in Word and Excel menu, and into their templates and macros, is why third party developers like me prefer Windows over Unix, regardless of how much better security in Unix is.
Do not get me wrong, Java improves business application development on Unix, but unfortuantely it is not feasable to rewrite ever legacy application in Java, and Java does not integrate well with other programming languages.
I used to code business application for both IBM MVS and Sun Solaris, and I never want to go back to those "bad" old days again, once I took the time to learn how to PROPERLY code using Win32API/COM/OLE/.NET!

At risk of feeding the troll I'll wander in here:
NOTE: Since this is an Apple programming boards and I have limited experience programming on traditional Unix systems (and most of that in college) I will confine my answers to the area I know.
If you had to build a business application that has to allow users to, spell and grammer check, and perform financial calculations, and render the HTML, how would you compare the effort to do this in Windows versus that in Linux, AIX, Solaris or any other Unix operating system?
I can make this business application have these features in ONE DAY on Windows, because COM and OLE lets me, use Word to spell and grammer check, Excel to do the financial calculations, and IE to render the HTML!
Note that this scenario assumes the user has Microsoft office installed. The person argues that they don't have to purchase libraries to program but what they are effectively doing is simply transferring that cost to user. I don't have to purchase libraries but everyone of my users needs to. Good for you, very good for Microsoft but bad for your customer - IMHO. OK, I know "But all Windows business users have Office installed already." When it comes free with the system then I'll retract my objection.
Under OS X and Cocoa many of these functions are intrinsic to the system layer and do not require any applications to be installed. Using Cocoa you can write a simple Word processor that has rulers, full font manipulation (including kerning, spacing and leading), Document Save and Load, Printing, Export to PDF as well as spell-checking in under 10 lines of actual code. Adding a custom file type and icon for full system integration will add another 5 minutes to your programing.
In case you think I'm blowing smoke here is a tutorial from 2002 (yes, this has been possible for over 5 years) outlining the 8 line Word Processor build in Cocoa. http://www.stone.com/TheCocoa_Files/What_s_sofunny.html
And yes, Cocoa also includes Webkit so I can add full HTML rendering by dragging in a WebKit window to my user interface. For an experienced Cocoa programmer this certainly sounds like less than a day of programming - in fact it sounds like a good tutorial for a middle-experienced training day or 2 day class in Cocoa.
I won't include the link to the 1 line web browser you can build in Cocoa using Webkit because it's shorter than the description. Feel free to search for it if you want to.
HONESTLY tell me and others reading this thread how you would go about create the customized business application I described above by yourself in a Unix instead of Windows, and tell us how many MONTHS or YEARS it would take you, or how you would have to BUY some other third party libraries to do what Word, Excel, and IE!
BUT this is all done from the stock system that is on every OS X computer not simply those with Office installed. Obviously you'd need to add some features that were more complicated than this - because any halfway decent programmer could turn this stuff out - and polish takes a while but to meet the requirements of the challenge it would take 2 days tops.
Is every *nix programming environment like this? I don't know I can only answer for the system that I have experience with and is the concern of this board. If you really have questions regarding *nix programming then I suggest you find an appropriate board and troll^H^H^H^H^H ask there.
If you're ever serious about programming on the Mac feel free to stop by and actually take a look at it. I think you'll be surprised.

Question for T20 owners regarding aux input

I'm hoping someone with T20s can answer a simple question for me. When you have two different sources plugged into the main input and the aux input, do you hear both mixed together? Or, does plugging in the aux "cut off" the main input? I've got two computers and I'd like to pipe both into just one set of speakers, and I've heard using reverse splitter adapters is a bad idea. All help is appreciated. Thanks! :-)

I'm not an audio expert but here goes. The aux does not cut off the primary input for the speaker, and you can hear both sources at once. (I have my laptop plugged into the rear and an MP3 player feeding the aux input)? I don't know that it's really a great idea since you could probably overload the speakers quickly if both sources are playing, even with transient spikes, but if you keep the volume reasonable, it probably may work fine. Best of luck.

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

Another question is about installing the Oracle database software: should we choose Create Databse or not when install Oracle Server Software only?
Is my installation process as following correct?
->SELECT A PRODUCT TO INSTALL:
Oracle9i Database 9.2.0.1.0
->WHAT TPYE OF INSTALLATION DO YOU WANT:
Enterprise Edition
->SELECT A DATABASE SUITED TO YOUR NEEDS:
Software only
After end of installation
install Oracle9i Client 9.2.0.1.0->Administrator
Thanks a lot

Hi Shusen, I´m trying to do the same think (Install ECC IDES with Oracle 9i in one computer for educational propose), can you help me with this:
1.I made the same Oracle install process because when I tried with sapserver.cmd nothing happened, for that reason i made:
SELECT A PRODUCT TO INSTALL:
Oracle9i Database 9.2.0.1.0
->WHAT TPYE OF INSTALLATION DO YOU WANT:
Enterprise Edition
->SELECT A DATABASE SUITED TO YOUR NEEDS:
Software only
After end of installation
I did not install client, is this correct?
2.After install this, I run the sapins.exe but show me this error: INSTALL FIRST SAP J2EE ENGINE, I download the JAVA SDK from JAVA page (java_ee_sdk-5-windows) but did not fix the problem: Do you know what file is this? Or, where is it in the DVD installation?
Thanks in advance if you or somebody can help me and excuse me if the answers are obviously, but I´m not a system engineer I´m only try to install IDES for learn SAP WM.
Thanks.

I have a new email address and my old email keeps coming up on icloud when trying to update apps and i don't know the password or security questions for the old email. I can sign in with my apple id which is tied to another email but not itunes how to fix

I have an apple id and it has my current email attached to it. however when i go to update apps it's asking for the password for an old email. I no longer have the old email and can't use it. when I go to icloud on my ipad it asks for the password for old email. it doesn't allow me to change the old email to current. when i go to reset it i can't remember the password or security questions for the old email so it doesn't let me go any further. How do I fix this? Do i need to call apple support?

I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account. I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there. On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back. Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email. The device is currently useless.
The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

I am having trouble answering my old security questions for my itunes account and it is creating a problem because I am not able to purchase apps/songs on my new IPAD. What phone number/email adress should I call to get a quick response to my issue?

I have recently bought an IPAD 2 for my girlfriend and have encountered a problem with purchasing apps through my itunes account. It is requesting that I not only enter my pasword (which I know) but answer my old account questions, which I have forgotten the answers to. It had since locked me out of changing my questions for eight hours. Is there any number I can call to prove that I am the real owner of my itunes account so my girlfriend will be able to use her ipad to purchase new apps without having to go through the trouble of using one of my other apple devices? Random information: I believe my questions were set back in 2007 when I purchased my first ipod nano, since then I have used this same itunes account for my own ipod touch and ipad 2 and my girlfriends iphone 1st generation. I have never run into a problem regarding my questions before on any of these devices

RG1 updation for Reversal of Goods Issue

Hi,
I am a SD person . We recently started RG1 for our client by deleting all the previous data from J_2IRG1BAL table & also mantaining the initial balances for finished goods .
When we do a goods reversal for a cancelled sales order ( say movement type 602 against 601 for goods issue ), according to standard SAP, the reversal entry shows up in ROP ( Other Receiepts).
What the client is demanding that , the Goods reversal entry should show should show up in the Issue Column Only ( like IDE or IDH), with a negative sign ... so it cancels out .
Client is saying that if it is in different columns, then the excise authorities will create a problem .
How does it work for others. Is the format of RG1 specified bu indian excise authorities only ? have the excise authorities imposed some regulations on that
Thanks in advance
Anmol

For return /reversal using MB1a - please follow the steps-
MB1A- then enter movt type 262, plant & SLOC & then press enter instead of to order
& then one scrren will come where you will enter the mat no , qty & order no & save.
Earlier when you are trying to fetch the data with reference to order that message - no selectable item was coming

Can somebody give some real time questions for alv report

hi guru
can somebody give some real time questions for alv report.
answers also.
regards
subhasis.

hi,
The ALV is a set of function modules and classes and their methods which are added to program code. Developers can use the functionality of the ALV in creating new reports, saving time which might otherwise have been spent on report enhancement
The common features of report are column    alignment, sorting, filtering, subtotals, totals etc. <b>To implement these, a lot of coding and logic is to be put. To avoid that we can use a concept called ABAP List Viewer (ALV).</b>
Using ALV, we can have three types of reports:
   1. Simple Report
   2. Block Report
   3. Hierarchical Sequential Report

Please read my question carefully, this is, I think, a question for the experts. It's not the usual name change question.
When I setup my new MacBook Pro, something slipped by me and my computer was named First-Lasts-MacBook-Pro (using my real first and last name).
I changed the computer name in Preferences/Sharing to a new name and Preferences/Accounts to just be Mike. I can right click on my account name, choose advanced, and see that everything looks right.
However, If I do a scan of my network with my iPhone using the free version of IP Scanner, it lists my computer as First-Lasts-MacBook-Pro! And it lists the user as First-Last.
So even though another Mac just sees my new computer name, and my home folder is Mike, somewhere in the system the original setup with my full name is still stored. And it's available on a network scan. So my full name might show up at a coffee shop.
Can I fully change the name without doing a complete re-install of Lion and all my apps?

One thought... you said the iPhone displayed your computer's old name? I think that you must have used the iPhone with this computer before you changed the name. So no one else's iPhone should display your full name unless that iPhone had previously connected to your Mac. For example, I did this exact same change, and I use the Keynote Remote app to connect with my MacBook Pro. It would no longer link with my MacBook Pro under the old name, and I found that I had to unlink and then create a new link under the new name. So the answer to your question is, there is nothing you need to do on the Mac, but rather the phone, and no other phone will display your full name.
