Recommended machine for application development

Hi, I am new to the whole apple interface but I am looking into application development for the iphone or ipad? What is a recommended machine (macbook pro, mac mini, imac) would I need dual monitor, etc. in order to develop a moderate graphic application? Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated? Thanks

Any late model Mac with at least 4GB of RAM will work.
I used a 2008 MacBook Air to develop a largish iPad app.
But I also had a 24" display. While not required, a large display makes things much easier.
With that as a starting point, add as much RAM as you can afford. That makes a huge difference when using Xcode/Instruments.

Oca 11g database certification for application developer

do i need oca 9i certification for getting 11g database certification for application developer not for DBA

user9334987 wrote:
some of my friend told me that i have to give 9i oca exams (one sql and one is for plsql) to appear for 11g oca. it means i will be eligible for 11g oca only after passing oca 9i is it true. i have seen your post given by you but it doesnot contain the answer of above question.Often I see people you say my friend say this .... my friends say that ... so often the friend is wrong. [http://www.oracle.com/education/certification] is authorative. Well usually.
The problems start when people are imprecise about the certification they are seeking ... the list is here ....
[http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=141]
If you notice there is no mention of '11g oca' or '9i oca' in the list.
There is mention of:
- Oracle 11g DBA OCA
- Oracle9i DBA OCA
- Oracle PL/SQL Developer OCA
And one can drill down links to see the requirements for these certifcations:
for example for a - Oracle PL/SQL Developer OCA a pass in one of (1z0-007 or 1z0-047 or 1z0-051 (or 1z0-001) ) plus a pass in one of (1z0-144 or 1z0-147) is required.
There is a post from mediaguy (that goes to a blog that is currently unavailable at the time of this post ... but will proably be fixed in a day or two) that I feel has a chance of being relevant also (note i have not read it yet). {thread:id=1049842}

Oracle 11g and Supported Programming Languages for application development

Hi,
Currently we are running our Java application on Oracle 10g Lite. We are planning to upgrade to Oracle 11g Lite very soon. I have below queries to be answered.
1. What are the programming languages supported for application development to work with Oracle 11g Lite mobile server and client ?
    - i have seen some note saying java and .net are supported. Wanted to know the complete list of supported programming languages on Oracle 10g Lite
2. Oracle Forms 10g is supported on Oracle 11g Lite platform ?
    - i have some online application running on Oracle 10G Forms. Wanted to extend this to offline model using Oracle 10g Lite
Thanks,
Ashok Kumar.G

Hi Ashok,
1. What are the programming languages supported for application development to work with Oracle 11g Lite mobile server and client ?
            For the 11g version of the product, we changed the name to Oracle Database Mobile Server.    For clarity purposes, there is no product called Oracle 11g Lite mobile server.
            For a detailed list of what is/is not supported on the client, please consult the documentation.   See section 2.1 of the Mobile Client guide. For programming languages you
            can use what you want, and we support the following technologies, JDBC, ODBC, ADO.NET. What you code your application in is up to you.
2. Oracle Forms 10g is supported on Oracle 11g Lite platform ?
               On the database mobile server side of things we do not do testing with Oracle Forms 10g.    I do not know enough about applications developed with the Forms' product.   Database Mobile Server is a product that keeps tracks of changes that occur in a database, and then propagates those changes to an Oracle backend.   We offer 2 way synchronization between an Oracle backend database and a client. If you are running the Forms application on the Oracle backend and want to propagate changes done out to the client, then this should work.    I say ** should **   because we have not tested it but I cannot think of a reason why it would not work.   It would be up to you to develop the client side application that would look at the data in the client database and display it to the user.    In the 11.x version of the product, we support 2 client databases, Berkeley DB and SQLite.
thanks

Recommended Reading for App Development in iOS 5

Good Afternoon...
I've recently installed XCode 4.3.2 on my MacBook Pro as I am interested in learning application development for the iPhone and iPad.
The extent of my programming experience is BASIC. I've browsed the on line tutorials and the books available at the local B&N. There is plenty to choose from but before I purchase anything, I thought I'd better ask.
Can anyone recommend reading? I'm guessing that BASIC programming experience translates into no experience where this is concerned. I'd also be interested in hearing about any training courses on the subject.
Thank you.

Are you currently in a valid paid Individual Developer Account...?

Performance Tuning Certification for Application Developer

Hi,
Can you please advise if there is any Oracle Performance Tuning certification for an Application Developer and Oracle 9i to 10G migration certification? If yes, can you please let me know its Oracle examination number?
I have already passed 1Z0-007 and 1Z0-147 in Oct 2008.
Thanks in advance,
Sandeep Kumar

... if there is any Oracle Performance Tuning certification for an Application Developer ...There is no performance tuning related certification for application developers. There is one for the DBA track.
Also -- to answer your question in the other thread:
So to clear this certification do I need to re-appear all the 3 exams as they were given in 2008 or just 1Z0-146 is enough.Having passed 1Z0-007 and 1Z0-147, if you pass 1Z0-046, you will gain the certification: Oracle Advanced PL/SQL Developer Certified Professional

Lack of useful components for application developer :-(

I want to share some remarks about our rewrite old Windows application to new AIR/flex application.
If any Adobe staff will reading this it will be great :-)
For colorfull web application with exotic buttons is Flex undoubtedly great choice.
But there is many developers (and firms like us) who looking for something little different.
We got bunch of Windows application written in Delphi. And we want (must) to move to another technology.
AIR is superior in language, runtime, simple move-to-web, blazeDS, tools and ecosystem growth is promising.
The only bad thing about Flex/AIR is UI. Yes, you hear right. UI is our biggest show-killer. And I am afraid that even with spark it will not be better.
We wrote application not coloring-book.
So we want only basic but state-of-the-art UI-standard componnets.
ToolBar, CoolBar, Button with three states, Button with icon and auto-disabled-grayed-icon, etc..
1) I found on the web three technique how to add icon on the spark button. Two of them include skinning. Absolutly confusing!
2) No useful CoolBar. How long it takes make CoolBar like in Adobe Acrobat Reader or MS Word in my application? This is matters for me!
I dont want two or three full-time developers extra for making basic components for us.
In this point Silverlight got 100% lead. No doubt.
http://www.componentone.com/SuperProducts/StudioSilverlight/
http://demos.devexpress.com/AgMenuDemos/
We still evaluate both technologies. We like Flex because is more JAVA friendly that SilverLight, but lack of usefull components will be final dead-end.
Am so sorry.
Know Adobe staff about this issues?
Want Adobe application-developers or only web-developers?
Planning Adobe making application components in the future or is satisfied with current state?

One thing is what is technology is better for me. More jobs in the future.
Another thing is what is better path for migrating a lot Delphi application.
Is realy so hard to make simple, nice and usefull toolbar in Flex? I cant find anything. So maybe I must try myself :-(
What you mean with "Microsoft can no longer execute on new technologies well"?
My main question in previous post should be "what about lack of useful components".
And I expected one of this answers:
Adobe is happy with current state. Main Adobe bussines is colorful web-application.
Adobe know there should be rich components, but now has no time. In the near future Adobe deal with it.
I am dummy person and making great "toolbar" is easy as a piece of cake.

Best practices for "designer - developer" interaction in Flex Mobile

Hi,
I'm starting development of a mobile software application and Flex Mobile is the platform I've chosen for that.
What is the best practice / recommended workflow for designer-developer interaction? For example in web application the designer provides HTML/CSS templates to the developer which integrates them in the Web Application. What is the analogue in Flex Mobile? What should I request as input from the designer?
I'll appreciate any hints, links, advises or previous experience on the topic.
Thanks!
Best Regards,
Dinko

If you're using Adaptive Web Design (CSS3 media queries), you can maintain one site with CSS Layouts optimized for different device widths.

If you're actually running separate web sites for mobile and non-mobile devices, have a look at this recent discussion:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4177360#4177360
IMO, there is nothing wrong with providing links for mobile and non-mobile users to choose which site they would prefer to use -- especially for tablets who may have an interest in both.

[SOLVED] Recommendations needed - Arch + Apache for local development

Hello,
I'm a new Arch user, and relatively new with Linux. I'm getting to like Arch very much.
I do web development, and I do most of my programming in PERL.
I have already installed perl and some tools, and I'm about to install apache. The Idea is to have the apache server just for local development and testing.
So the question is: Do you recommend me to install some firewall?
What security measurements should I take?
Is there any easy way to enable and disable Internet access to the apache server?
Thank you!
Last edited by iopo (2009-10-28 19:24:14)

Thank you friends.
Yes, my Internet is via router. I like the Idea to set the server to listen at local address, I will try that.
Now, as I'm new to Linux and Arch, I will like to know if I should take any extra security measurements. In windows I used anti-virus + firewall all the time, and I blocked apache to access the Internet with the firewall.
I have set a strong root password, but the "normal user" has sudo. Is that secure enough?
Is there any "must have" security tools or measurements to set is a box like mine (Desktop usage + local network (3 machines) + apache for local usage and testing only)?
Is it common to get some malware, worm, trojan, spyware or some kind of phishing just by surfing the web without user "action" to install it?
I know Linux is much safer because users and permissions. I like that very much, It feels a lot safer.
Now, I have used Arch for a week or so with no firewall (router firewall is disabled also) and no anti-virus. Absolutely no special security measurements and there seems to be no log-in attempts in logfiles .. and no problems at all. Windows without firewall and anti-virus will die in a few hours just by leaving it connected to Internet....
I just wanted to ask you all (Arch users) if you normally use Firewall, and if you take some special measurement to stay free of trojans, spyware, etc...
I will appreciate your comments.
Thank you!

WHAT ARE THE RECOMMENDED CERTIFICATIONS FOR A SOFTWARE DEVELOPER?

HI FRIENDS COULD SOME ONE HELP ME OUT WITH THE LIST OF RECOMMENDED CERTIFICATION FOR A PROGRAMMER. TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF MY WORKING PLATFORM. I WORK IN C/C++ AS FRONTEND WITH UNIX AS BACKEND. I ALSO DEAL WITH UML AT TIMES. SO DO PLEASE HELP ME OUT TO SPOT THE EXACT CERTIFICATION WHICH WOULD HELP ME IN MY CARRIER.
Edited by: user11087237 on 20 Apr, 2009 9:43 PM

You can get an OCP (Advanced PL/SQL) by completing 1z0-146. You have in practice to get PLSQL OCA first.
You can also get OCP via a forms route instead .... 1z0-141. What I am trying to say is Oracle has a number of products other than sql* Forms, and forms may be in decline, so if you are not already familiar with forms that may not be the best place to put efforts.
What I was trying to say that is possilbly that effot getting to know apex (application express) may be better than time spent trying to ge to grips with and certifiying in Forms. (Though as far as I am aware there is no apex certification).
i feel that you suggest me something other than oca /ocp certification. if i am right do please clear me out . and for your information i have worked in sql & plsql for quite a good time.In summary
I am suggesting you seriously consider Oracle PL/SQL Developer Certified Associate(OCA) and Oracle Advanced PL/SQL Developer Certified Professional (OCP).
However the case for studying for (Oracle Forms Developer Certified Professional (OCP)) is perhaps less clear cut if you have not aleady got forms experience, and that for you effort may be better spent elsewhere, possilby even in non certified study (jdeveloper, application express, oracle designer ... )

Hope that is less unambiguous.

What does Application Development Runtime use oraInventory for?

Hi everyone,
I am very new to the ADF and JDeveloper toolset, so I apologize if this is a dumb question.
I am working with Oracle BI Applications. In particular, there is a product called Spend Classification. Part of the setup is to install Oracle Application Development Runtime (http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/middleware/11g/ofm_appdev_generic_11.1.1.2.0_disk1_1of1.zip).
During the install for that product, we ran into an error, insuffcient privildges to the oraInventory folder.
What does this software use the oraInventory folder for?
-Joe

The oracle installer uses the oraInventory directory to keep track of what software is installed on a machine

Devleoper Studio and Workplace for Java application development

1. Can someone please help me know what is netweaver developer studio and developer workplace ?
2. I came across EP master guide that says :
You install an AS Java centrally and the developer workplace on each developer host.
This option is recommended for large development projects with a need for local and central testing. Developers can test their developments locally using the developer workplace. For integration tests, they deploy their changes on the central AS Java.Ûê.® |
You install an AS Java centrally and Developer Studio instances on each developer host.
This option requires fewer hardware resources per developer host. In this landscape scenario you can set up an AS Java in development mode centrally and connect to it from the other hosts in the landscape using the Developer Studio.
How does Java application development take place ? Does this say that we need Developer Studio instances installed on every developer's host (suppose I have 3 developers) or do I need one server setup for Dev Studio and developers using some client program to connect to it ?
I suppose developers create programs on their local pc's, port them to Dev studio for testing and transfer them to EP Dev server ? Is that correct.. ? Thereby, we need CTS+ to promote developments to Qlty and Prod ?

CRDB_JavaServer.ini file is missing in linux (for Crystal reports designer in Rational Application developer)

Hi I am trying to design crystal reports in rational application developer on linux. But I cannt find CRDB_JavaServer.ini on linux. This file is present in Windows in c:\program files\crystal decisions\2.5\bin path.But I cannt seem to find this file in linux.I am running RAD 6011 ifix001,ifix002 and can see the Crystal Reports JSP Tags drawer in JSP design view.But I cannot find "Crystal report" as one of the file types , when i right click on WebProject\WebContent folderto create a new Crystal Report in my Web project. Any help would be much apprecated. robin. 

I don't know much about this and I'm assuming you already did a find or locate command.Did you find a CRConfig.xml. This file had replaced the old CRDB_JavaServer.ini in newer versions. I'm not sure which one IBM was using for this build. If you have a support contract with IBM I would suggest talking to them as they handle first line support for this. It could be that they forgot to include the file by mistake. Rob Horne <a href="/blog/10">Rob's blog - http://diamond.businessobjects.com/blog/10</a>
