Rename a member in shared library

and then do deployment, say rename A to B, i suppose data for A will not be lost and B will have them?
did not see about this in doc, but if rename cause data loss then EPMA would be too bad product,:)

user12291444 wrote:
Thanks!
I used EPMA profile to update the member, if a member name is changed in data source,
how can i know if the member in shared library is renamed or delete/add by import through profile?If by datasource you mean Essbase, then all changes done in Essbase will be overwritten during the next deployment by the values set in EPMA. But this way, since it will be an overwrite of the member in the outline rather than a renaming, you will probably lost data (not 100% sure though).

ITunes shared library on Buffalo Linkstation NAS

Hi all
I've recently put in a Buffalo NAS, which has an onboard media server. iTunes can see it fine and to begin with, it worked superbly.
After making a couple of network changes this weekend (put a fixed IP on one of the computers and moved all my music folders around on the NAS...), iTunes can still see the contents of the shared library but can't play anything from it. Exclamation points all over the place.
I've tried renaming the NAS and mapping it to a different network drive letter in the hope that iTunes would be fooled but it isn't. Anyone have any ideas?
I'd also mention that the situation is the same for all the computers on the network, including the ones that have iTunes installed but no local library.
Help very much appreciated!

thanks, i've only just installed and copied the files over so this would seem not to apply.
I checked on my son's PC and looked at the shared library from my MAC and I can see all content, i think this is a Buffalo DNLA server issue.

The warning seem to be related to the fact that I use virtual members in classes that are derived and the member overriden. (I'm saying that because I have a similar library with no virual members and I don't get the warnings even if I use the same options).

Import shared library, edit vi's, arrange menu

I'm creating a labview interface to a large dll, so I use the Tools->Import->Shared library, and it works GREAT! I have a user library I can call from the palette. So I keep adding to the dll, and now have over 100 function calls. I would like to keep the dll's in a single library, but I am constantly updating them as our drivers change (still under development). So each time I create the library, i need to edit all the connectors, and the palette is getting unwieldy. I've googled and looked through NI-DZ and Lava with no help, so I expect I just need to do a lot of manual cleanup after the import function. But, if i missed something:
Is there a way to control the Import Shared Library wizard? (command file-like?)
- define what are inputs and what are outputs? define the terminal patterns and connections?
How can I modify the palette menu created by the process (sub-menu's, rename items, sort items?)
- the "Tools->Advanced->Edit Palette Set" seems really akward.
Any pointers to tutorials or white papers on creating libraries from a large dll?
Thank You!

Hi brimcd,
Concerning editing the connections of the VI generated, when importing the updated DLL and header file, I would imagine that the unchanged bits of the header file would create connections in the same way you had created them for previous versions. As for editing the palettes, you can also access the editor by pinning the specific palette to the block diagram, and then selecting Customize.
It seems like you've got a great handle on the process, but in case you want a reference, here's a very complete tutorial on creating wrapper VIs for DLLs using the Wizard. I hope this helps!

Init-Routine in Shared Library not executed

I have tried to write a Shared Library with an init- and fini-routine. I have used the #pragma init resp. #pragma fini statements to specify the names of the functions to be executed.
But when loading my library nothing happens. The init function is not executed. After renaming the functions to init resp fini everything worked fine (even without #pragma).
It seems that the #pragma statements are ignored.
This is my library:
#include <stdio.h>
void init(void);
void fini(void);
#pragma init (init)
#pragma fini (fini)
void init()
fprintf(stdout, " init called");
void fini()
fprintf(stdout, " fini called");
My compiler version is "WorkShop Compilers 4.2". The OS version is Solaris 5.7

As an asside, C 4.2 is not supported on Solaris 7 or
higher.

Account Dim in Shared Library doesn't have CustomXTopMember or EnableCustomXAggregation Properties

We are upgrading from 11.1.2.1 to 11.1.2.3.500. We use the Shared Library for our HFM application. In 11.1.2.3.500, there are no options for EnableCustomXTopMember or EnableCustomXAggregation (where X is the number of the Custom dimension IE Custom 1, Custom 2, Custom 3, Custom 4).
In the local account dimension in the new version, it does have these properties.
In the shared account dimension in the old version, it does have these properties.
In the shared account dimension in the new version, it does not have these properties.
In the new version, I had to copy the account dimension from the application to get the Dimension Associations to create in the Shared Library, but even with the Dimension Associations created, we still do not see the properties in the Shared Library.
We do have our Custom dimensions setup in the Shared Library.
We have tried importing via LCM and Import Profiles, but LCM gives us errors and warnings that it cannot associate the property with the dimension:
"There was a error processing the dimension association for the base dimension 'Account', target dimension 'Custom1'; please make sure that the target dimension exist or is included in the dimension section of the import source. Member properties for this association will not be processed."
Any ideas on why the properties do not exist in the Shared Library and will not import or copy into the Shared Library in 11.1.2.3.500?
Here are some screenshots:
Thanks,

Hi Steve,
I have encountered the same problem too.
As a workaround, start creating a dummy application with the shared dimensions of the new version. This will create the associations. After that, you can delete the application.
Cheers,
Thanos

Alias in EPMA shared library

Hi There,
When we add a new member into EPMA shared library using ODI the new item comes into Hyperion with alias/description. However, if I change that description in ERP this does not seem to pass across into Hyperion and it looks like it is a manual task for the administartor to maintain that alias manually.
Could someone let us know the reason and/or resolution for this issue.
Cheers !!!!

Hi,
Have a look at below link for the specific details:

Shared Library Conflicts/HotSync/Palm

I have had trouble opening Hot Sync Manager to sync w/Bluetooth.
Keep getting ERROR Message:
The application "HotSync Manager" could not be launched because of a shared library error: "O<HotSync Manager><HotSync Manager><HotSyncLib.PPC><SetConfigureConduitCallBack>
Could Apple users please help me find these extensions so I can delete them and start clean.
Wish Error Messages would tell me where the heck these conflicting files are??
Thx all

You are seeing a variant of the single most frequently encountered error condition of the Palm Desktop software package under OS X. It is usually a result of the choice to install or upgrade system software using the archive and install option.
Whatever you do, do not arbitrarily delete rename, or move any Palm-related files or folders, as you will only aggravate the situation! Manually manipulating either the Palm software [including the HotSync Manager or the Transport Monitor] or iSync and the iSync Palm Conduit is not something you should attempt unless you understand how they operate, and are very familiar with the consequences of doing so.
There are a number of ways to address it, though the easiest is probably by following this set of instructions from Palm:
Macintosh 0S X 10.x: HotSync Manager could not be launched because of a shared library error
The Mac OS X installer includes an "Archive and Install" option. When you upgrade your Mac OS to a newer version of OS X, and select the "Archive and Install" option from the installer's "Select a Destination: Options" panel, you may receive the following error upon restart or attempting to launch HotSync Manager:
"The application "HotSync Manager" could not be launched because of a shared library error: "4"
Explanation: The Archive and Install option in the Mac OS X installer does not copy these files from the archived System and Library folders to the new OS installation. HotSync Manager requires these files to run properly.
Workaround: You must re-install Palm Desktop from the CD included with your handheld. After installing Palm Desktop from your CD you can install the latest web download from: http://www.palm.com/us/support/downloads
NOTE: That file is directly accessible here:
http://www.palm.com/us/support/macintosh/macdesk421revd.html
(Important Note: Be sure to install from your CD first as the web version does not include all the software included on your CD)

Unable to see shared library

I searched for and read about a dozen previous posts on this subject but was unable to find a solution. Not only can I not see any shared library but I don't even have a "shared" menu item on either PC as described in the help file. It should show up under the Library>Music heading?
Both PC's:
...can connect to the internet
...can transfer files back and forth
...can see each others "Shared Docs" directory
...have iTunes and Bonjour listed as exceptions in Windows Firewall
...have the latest verions of iTunes and Bonjour
When I point the iTunes Music Folder location on the 'remote' PC to the iTunes Music Folder on the 'host' PC, it finds it, see's it, and then asks if I want to update (the view)? to match? I said yes. Still the same list of songs that are physically on the remote PC and nowhere does it say anything about sharing or give any indication that it is aware of the host library.
What am I not getting?

"iTunes Sharing, the built-in feature, has nothing to do with pointing your iTunes Music folder setting to a shared folder on another computer. Those are two separate features/capabilities."
Yes, I get that - I was just trying everything I could think of to make it see my shared library.
"do you have Sharing and "Look for shared" turned on in the iTunes Sharing preferences?"
Yes.
"you want to have your iTunes library using the shared folder on your other computer, you need to use the Add Folder to Library command to get the tracks into the iTunes library listing"
Not quite sure what your getting at here. The help file for sharing the entire library gives 3 simple steps and then says "its name appears in the iTunes window (below Shared) on other local computers (in the same subnet) set up to look for shared libraries." - obviously this is not happening.
The whole reason to share and use the host library is specifically to avoid having to manually add tracks/folders from the remote PC.

Please help! Shared Library Error... no applications will open!

Hi. Major issues!!
My computer was unplugged for 2 weeks (renovations). When I set it up in my new office, none of my applications would open! (Microsoft, Adobe, AOL, etc...) Safari is working.
I get this error message:
The application "Photoshop" could not be launched because of a shared library error: "5<application><CarbonLib><CFMPriv_SpeechRecognition>"
The application "Word" could not be launched because of a shared library error:
"8<Microsoft Word><CarbonLib><CFMPriv_SpeechRecognition>"
The application "AOL" could not be launched because of a shared library error:
"9<AOL (Bootstrap)><CarbonLib><CFMPriv_SpeechRecognition>"
The application "AppleWorks" could not be launched because of a shared library error: "4<AppleWorks><CarbonLib><CFMPriv_SpeechRecognition>"
Here's what I've tried...
I have tried to install combo update 10.3.9. .. didn't work.
My computer was purchased in 2004... just moved to a new house... do not know where my installation dvd is... so to reboot on that is not an option.
I tried disk repair permissions... didn't work!
I opened my log console to view the crash logs... and it appears a lot has crashed... but I can not understand what any of it means!?!
Can anyone help or offer some advice?
Can anyone understand a crash log if I post it?
Please help!?! Taking an online masters course and this is a major dilemma!
Thanks,
Lindsay

Hi Lindsay,
"Can I get one from a mac store? Does it have to be the original one I used when I purchased my mac?"
No, you can no longer purchase 10.3 Panther disks from Apple Stores, online or otherwise. You may however, be able to purchase replacement disks for your computer (if Mac OS 10.3 were the original install disks that came with your mac) by calling Apple and explaining and having the serial number ready of the computer.
If your installation of 10.3 was an upgrade you can purchase retail copies of 10.3 disks online from many resellers, such as on ebay or sites such as FastMac, but be sure to purchase a retail box set and not upgrade or machine specific disks.
Did you perform all of the steps that Kappy steered you to in Dr. Smoke's FAQ first and your only option left is the Archive and Install?

Adding shared library to project fails

We've created a shared library of content and look & feel updates to Portal 9.2 mp1.
Started by creating a new web and app project. Made sure it works in a test portal.
I followed Floyd Jones instructions on creating shared J2EE libs.
Created a "simple project" copied the files (with exception of the webcontent folder - but all its contents). Created the Manifest file. Saved it as a .war in the modules folder.
Create a new web and app project for testing. When I pull in the library, portal doesn't seem to work following the instructions (Can't find WebLogic J2EE Libraries option to add). So I add the J2EE libraries via the project properties. When I link to the war file, the manifest information does not appear. Instead just the name of the actual .war file.
I can add the versions. Workshop requires me to edit the weblogic.xml file to pull in the library.
But no luck. My suspicion is there's something wrong with the library as it can't read the manifest. When I open the manifest inside the .war file all the information is there.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks...martin

you'll have to physically put all the songs on to the computer that doesnt have it. to do this go to start>my network places and if you are on a network his computer should show up. You'll probably need to enable sharing for your My Music folder (just assuming thats where you music is at) and just copy it over.

Remote app on iPad2 not showing iTunes interface on ATV2 shared library

I have an AppleTV 2 that's sharing an iTunes library via home sharing over Ethernet from a Mac Mini. Running Remote App on my iPhone 5S, I can control that library as expected. Running Remote App on my iPad2, however, I'm unable to see the main iTunes-like interface that lists songs, albums, artists, etc. on the shared library. While I can see the currently playing song at the top of the screen and have access to the Back, Pause, and Forward buttons, the main pane below that only shows the icons for Home Sharing and Using Gestures. Under Home Sharing, where it says "Tap the Apple TV button in the bottom left...," there's not Apple TV button, only "Devices." I can use the gestures interface in Remote App on the iPad2 to control playback, but I never see the main library interface. Any thoughts you have for remedying this would be really appreciated!

Well the response I got to the above post was outstanding!
Shall we put this in the bracket along with "If a tree falls in the forest with no one there to hear it, does it make a sound?"
If anyone is wondering, for my party I ended up using my Mac as the server for the iTunes DJ. And I discovered that if more than 5-7 people try to get onto it, it crashes the whole system and the music stops. Glorious.

Remote for itunes on shared library

Hello.
On my mac mini in the living room is attached a USB drive with all music for itunes. The remote app on IOS works fine for this mini.
In my office on the same lan I have a mini which uses home sharing to see that library. However its headless straight into a hifi.
For the life of me I cannot owrk out how I can play music from the home share through this mini, is it possible? All the remote app shows is the few songs it has in its native library.
Any help appriciated because it seems to detract from the point of the home share thing.

Hi Gary,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You should be able to access your Home Sharing library with Remote by pairing the two using these steps:
Pair Remote with your Home Sharing network
To use Remote 2.0 (or later) with Home Sharing, every iTunes library you want to control must have Home Sharing turned on. For more information, see Use Home Sharing to import items from another iTunes library.
Tap Remote on your device’s Home screen.
Tap Settings.
Tap to turn Home Sharing on.
Type your Apple ID and password, and tap Done.
Tap the iTunes library or Apple TV you want to control.
For more information, see the Remote Support website.
You can find these steps and more information here:
iTunes 11 for Mac: Use the Remote app to control your iTunes library

ITunes library not in default location doesn't show up as shared library

My iTunes library will not show up on my network as a shared library. It is not in the default location for Windows (Documents and Settings\<user>\My Documents\My Music\iTunes). I can find no reference anywhere that this should prevent a library from being seen by other iTunes users, yet that seems to be the case.
I have two other iTunes libraries on computers on my local network. Both show up on each other's machines, so this isn't a firewall issue. All my machines are running the same level of Windows XP Pro.
On one machine, I actually created a library in another location, then shared it. It was not visible. Once I recreated the library in the default location, it was again visible.
Does anyone have a any ideas how I can troubleshoot this? I really don't want to copy/move what is now a very large library and there's nothing to indicate that this shouldn't work.
Thanks!
Michael Greis

Normally all you need to do is copy the entire iTunes folder from <User's Music> on one computer to <User's Music> on the other. If you've made things more complicated see make a split library portable.
