Recreating a program interface with the drawing API?

Hey there all!
I've been out of the developing arena for awhile, so please
bear with me.
I'm currently doing a road trainer gig, and it would help me
out tremendously to have a Flash version of the software I'm
providing training on. Can someone point me in the right direction
to find the ActionScript for drawing a specific programs interface?
I'm going to be needing databaseing info too, but that's
another question :-) .
Thanx in advance!
TeeCee

i don't know why you would draw an interface, but the flash
drawing api can be found under the movieclip methods: lineStyle,
moveTo, lineTo, curveTo, beginFill etc.

Interface with device driver (API or DLL files)

I want to make my C++ program interface with an instrument which has a device driver available at the OEM's website. It's a DLL file (not a .cpp file), but I don't know how to call DLL file from C++. I am using Measurement Studio for Visual C++ and Microsoft Visual C++ compiler. Do you have a C++ example code or tutorial about calling DLL (or API) from C++ ?

Irene,
Measurement Studio is simply a plug-in for Visual Studio C++. Calling a DLL is general to C/C++. It usually amounts to #including the .h file that comes with the library, like this:
#include "MyDLL.h"
I found the following website through Google, which is pretty thorough on calling DLLs:

I hope that helps.

Can I create a cert with the Java API only?

I'm building a client/server app that will use SSL and client certs for authenticating the client to the server. I'd like for each user to be able to create a keypair and an associated self-signed cert that they can provide to the server through some other means, to be included in the server's trust store.
I know how to generate a key pair with an associated self-signed cert via keytool, but I'd prefer to do it directly with the Java APIs. From looking at the Javadocs, I can see how to generate a keypair and how to generate a cert object using an encoded representation of the cert ( e.g. java.security.cert.CertificateFactory.generateCertififcate() ).
But how can I create this encoded representation of the certificate that I need to provide to generateCertificate()? I could do it with keytool and export the cert to a file, but is there no Java API that can accomplish the same thing?
I want to avoid having the user use keytool. Perhaps I can execute the appropriate keytool command from the java code, using Runtime.exec(), but again a pure java API approach would be better. Is there a way to do this all with Java? If not, is executing keytool via Runtime.exec() the best approach?

There is no solution available with the JDK. It's rather deficient wrt certificate management, as java.security.cert.CertificateFactory is a factory that only deals in re-treads. That is, it doesn't really create certs. Rather it converts a DER encoded byte stream into a Java Certificate object.
I found two ways to create a certificate from scratch. The first one is an all Java implementation of what keytool does. The second is to use Runtime.exec(), which you don't want to do.
1. Use BouncyCastle, a free open source cryptography library that you can find here: http://www.bouncycastle.org/ There are examples in the documentation that show you how to do just about anything you want to do. I chose not to use it, because my need was satisfied with a lighter approach, and I didn't want to add a dependency unnecessarily. Also Bouncy Castle requires you to use a distinct version with each version of the JDK. So if I wanted my app to work with JDK 1.4 or later, I would have to actually create three different versions, each bundled with the version of BouncyCastle that matches the version of the target JDK.
2. I created my cert by using Runtime.exec() to invoke the keytool program, which you say you don't want to do. This seemed like a hack to me, so I tried to avoid it; but actually I think it was the better choice for me, and I've been happy with how it works. It may have some backward compatibility issues. I tested it on Windows XP and Mac 10.4.9 with JDK 1.6. Some keytool arguments changed with JDK versions, but I think they maintained backward compatibility. I haven't checked it, and I don't know if I'm using the later or earlier version of the keytool arguments.

Does anyone have a suggestion for an alternative to iCal that will interface with the Cloud so it works on the iPhone and the Macbook? I find iCal to be poorly designed and not very efficient. I waste a lot of time entering information because you can't go to a specific day and enter information, nor can you navigate between months and add information on a specific date by clicking on the date. You can't easily scroll month-to-month and once you do by scrolling through nine months to get to where you want to be, you cannot enter information by clicking on a specific day in the month and entering information. I just called Apple and they verified that this is the way it works. You cannot go to a date and enter information, you keep getting thrown back to today and then you have to go into the calendar and change it manually on the screen. It is just not efficient.

It works great but i dont know How to make the hirarchey to show the key and the text.
Please Advice.

Hi Kenneth,
please have a look in the source of the executed Web Application. What is inside of the <div> with the id filter?
You should also find a td tag with id hier_xyz with xyz the filter inside of the <div>-Tag with id filter.
Also check whether you have a javascript error.
Have a look on the Javascript function set_style. Perhaps you can paste it here, than I can have a look.

I have a question with program associated with the creation of a virtual instrument of Lab View. 1.Create of virtual instrument based on the NI 9401 module fitted to the chassis NI Compaq DAQ (Ni-cDAQ-9172). Creating a virtual tool needed to implement the following counting impulses in impulse series, visualization of data through a digital indicator, comparing the number of impusite with pre-set value, that value can be assigned by the user. Indicator light when reaching in reaching the set number of pulses, the opportunity to reset the meter of a button on the front panel. Switch to digital output in reaching the set number. I hope someone can help me.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

What is your question? You've described what the program is supposed to do, but it's not clear what you're asking about. Do you need help getting started? If so, have you gone through the LabVIEW tutorials? You and look over the material in the NI Developer Zone's Learning Center which provides links to other materials and other tutorials. You can also take the online courses for free. Have you looked through the many examples that ship with LabVIEW for data acquisition?

Hi Sam,

How-to trigger a process chain using ABAP?
Re: scheduling process chain 3 specific times a day
NOTE: If you want to trigger the process chain from R/3, there are many examples in this forum. However, since the search function is not working now, I suggest you look at OSS Note 135637. This will show you how to do it also.
Hope this helps.
concerning to sm64 ..
Triggering events manually ...
Events let you start background jobs when particular changes in the R/3 System take place. When an event occurs, the background processing system starts all jobs that were scheduled to wait for that event.
example : JOB_OPEN to create a background job..
When scheduling a background job, you can specify it to start "after event".
If you do so, you'll have to create an event in SM62.
If a job is scheduled after event event and you trigger the event with SM64, the job will start.
Events can be raised by external systems in SAP by sending a command to a SAP application server. You can also raise event in any program using function mosule BP_EVENT_RAISE.
Reward if helpful.

[SOLVED] no interfaces with the new iproute2

I get no interfaces with the 'ip a' command except for the 'lo' interface when I upgraded to iproute2-3.5.1-1. Anyone know a workaround?
Last edited by mikkie (2012-08-21 20:05:30)

That only lists interfaces that are currently up. Are you connected through eth0 or wlan0 when you run that command?
I'm not sure if it's the "right" way, but `ip maddress` shows all my interfaces, while `ip address` shows only those that are currently connected.
edit: `ip link` is probably the right command to list all interfaces. or `ip link show` according to the man page, but I believe the show is assumed in the shorter form - or even with just `ip l`.

Formatted Search defined on an item added with the UI API

Hello,
I have added an Edit Text with the UI API on the Sales Orders form. It is visible and enable.
I have linked a Formatted Search to this Edit Text.I have indicated to refresh the value on Supplier Name changed.
I have linked the same formatted search to the Remarks field with the same conditions of launching.
When I change the BP name, the formatted search on theremarks field is launched, but the formatted search on the Edit Text is not launched.
Why the formatted search on the Edit Text is not launched when the condition for refresh is true?
Thanks for your help.
Best regards,

Hi,
This is a simple Edit Text which is not bound.
I can launch manually the formatted search, but it is not launch automatically!
It seems that SBO can't launch automatically FS on user forms and user items.
I have tried to define a FS on the Fixed Asset master data form and you can only launch the Formatted search manually.

PB with the Scorm API

Hi,
I am facing a problem with the lms API in the standard scorm
html file included in captivate 1.
most of the scos I have created with Captivate 1 for one of
my courses contain several animations.
so I have modified the scorm.html template in order so that
each animation is able to call a javascript which will replace the
object tag. The javascript gives the name of the captivate movie
that has to be loaded and displayed.
the first movie runs well, and sends the usual api commands
to the lms. at the end of the movie, a javascript is called, with
the name of the next animation to be run.
that works perfectly, but from that moment, the animations
are not able to send api commands to the lms.
of course, I intercept the LMSCommit and LMSFinish commands
and the cmi.core.lesson_status is set to incomplete.
but still the problem and I don't understand why.
does anyone have a solution to solve this issue ?
thanks for help
oldJaypee

Is there any debugging mode you can use in the LMS to see
what's happening?
Perhaps your second animation is re-initiating the
LMS_initialize
function, which could be throwing it off?
Really hard to say if you can't see what's going on 'behind
the scenes'.
