Renaming a Package?

Hi All.
SAP does not give an option to rename a Package (SE21).
I can only copy and create a new one.
So if I want to rename an existing package, how do I do that? Issue is how will all existing objects tied to that package be automatically shifted to the new package name?
Thanks in adv.

That's what I thought, and so I posted it in the forum
Still, if anybody has found a workaround to this problem, do let me know please.

How to rename the package name?

Thanks for reading my post.
I need to rename my project, but the package name stays the same. When I tried to rename it, IDE tells me that "rename default package is not supported". Is there any way that I can rename the package?
Thanks in advance,

thats a very good question, I have been just living with it myself figuring if the IDE couldn't change it things could get pretty ugly trying to dig down and do it manually. I'll watch this thread and see if anyone comes up with any ideas.

Issue with renaming the package name from "Oracle" to "oracle" in windows

Hi all,
I created a project in which initially I created all the jsffs in a package Oracle/communications. In one of the jsff pages(a.jsff) I have include tag <jsp:directive.include file="/*Oracle*/communications/b.jsff"/>
But later I refactored the code and renamed the package to oracle/communications and I modified the include tag to <jsp:directive.include file="/*oracle*/communications/b.jsff"/>
But after that change also when I deploy the ear and try to access the a.jsff, I am getting the file not found exception.
Root cause of ServletException.
oracle.jsp.parse.JspParseException:
/adflib/oracle/communications/a.jsff: Line # 19, <jsp:directive.include file="/Oracle/communications/b.jsff" xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page"/>
Error: Include file not found: /Oracle/communications/b.jsff
Do I need to change any other configuration file?
The same ear when deployed in linux is working absolutely fine.
Thanks in advance,
Vamsi

Windows doesn't know the difference between upper case and lowercase file names. So renaming Oracle to oracle will not change the file name.
To change the file name you have to rename it from Oracle to xxoracle and then to oracle.

How to rename a package?

Does anyone know, how I can rename a BC4J-Package in JDeveloper 9i ?
For example, How can I move all classes and files located in
de.mycompany.myapp.tools
to
de.mycompany.myapp.tools.converters
Or, how can I correct a typo like this:
de.mycompany.myapp.tolls
should be:
de.mycompany.myapp.tools
How can I do this the easiest way?
Any hints would be appreciated.
Frank

Bug 2247064 is filed to track making the refactoring work for BC4J components.
Today the refactoring works for plain Java classes, but not for the XML+Java-file-based BC4J components.
BC4J supports renaming individual components, but not automatically renaming a package.
The package name is referenced in many places in the XML metadata (everywhere a fully-qualified component name is referenced by name), so the renaming of a package will require "fixing up" various bits of metadata in the XML to keep everything in sync.
I'll see if I can craft up an XSLT stylesheet that would rename all of the metadata automatically as an interim helper.

Is there a way to save over previous files without renaming when packaging InDesign files?

I am finding the file management a nightmare with having to package my work from Creative Cloud at home in order to work in Creative Suite at school. I usually have to do this back and forth multiple times for the same project creating multiple files and folders - it is too confusing!
I would like less clutter by having the option to save over my packages without having to rename resulting in yet another packaged folder for the same project to my storage devices. Is there a way to do this? I searched and am not finding answers to this particular issue.
Normally I would not package before the project is complete but I need the IDML files in order to continue my work when at school. Any answers or tips around how to manage this would be appreciated.
Thank you!

Thank you Bob! I understood all of that. My frustration was that I have to give it a new name every single time I package thus creating yet another version of the same file on my system. I don't like cluttering my system with multiple versions of the same project. I work with duplicating layers inside the same document so I can always revert back to something done earlier without having to dig around and open an old file. I think this lack of saving over a file option is a flaw in the way the software is designed. One should always have the option to re-save over an old file with the same name. Just my opinion!

Renaming SCCM package application catalog using powershell

I am trying to change the application properties in SCCM Configmgr2012 of over 2000 applications, i need to have the Application Catalog name changed to match the package Name, for doing this i need to design a power shell script, since i am new to
power shell i am not sure what parameters i should use and appropriate functions to be used. if anybody has created something similar please share information on this. Hope i am clear with my question.
Thanks.
Example
Path: Software library-Overview-Application Management-Applications-Adobe
Application-Right click-properties-General Information tab-Name
Adobe_Acrobat X Pro_10.0.0_01
Application-Right click-properties-Application catalog-Localized application name Adobe_Acrobat X Pro -English

That the applications are not in the same folder is not a problem, as you can iterate through all applications without knowing the folder location. The problem is that if you want to script this there needs to be a starting point. Something that's the
same for all application names, so you can script something to get a specific part of the name.

Renaming packages has caused them to "no longer exist"

I am renaming my packages according to Java conventions..
Tried to rename "com.ppowell.tools.ObjectTools" to "com.ppowell.tools.objecttools"
However, upon doing so I am unable to find any of the classes in "com.ppowell.tools.objecttools"
I am getting "package com.ppowell.tools.objecttools does not exist" compiler errors by the boatload.
I am using NetBeans IDE 5.5
Please help!!
Thanx
Phil

UPDATE
I have no idea but everything's restored again..
however, NetBeans continues to show the package name
as "com.ppowell.tools.ObjectTools" when it is, in
fact, "com.ppowell.tools.objecttools". Can't find
anything in build.xml that tells me anything I can
understand, and everything compiles and runs now.
Just the weird NetBeans bug with the package names
being wrongly displayed that I can't seem to fix.you could try deleting the projects from the workspace (not the filesystem!) and re-importing them. don't know how you'd do that in netbeans, I've never used it

JSC2EA2 Package Renaming

I tried to rename a package to get the source in a resionable package and it seems to have messed up Creator. I got a notification of a null pointer exception. The project went down hill from there. I tried to restart the ide and it gave me an error about the web directory being moved. After checking out the file system I found that not only did it rename the source package but it renamed the directories in the web directory.
Next I created a project with the correct package name for the source and it would not allow me to display the desinger for the jsp. The jsp pages are not recognized correctly and only shows the code. To test this I created a third project with the default package naming and it is recognizing the jsp file correctly and displaying the design option.
Thanks

How to change the package name of Managed Bean class

Hi: Gurus, when ever I create a new JSP page the Creator creates a code behind file with a package name untitled. Is there any way to change this package name? Can't the Creator gives us an option before genereating manged bean page to choose a package name? And then create the Java source directory structure on the basis of the pakcage name?
Regards,
Rashid.

In the Project Navigator (default location is middle right), go to Java Sources, and you can rename the package ("untitled") to something else by right-clicking it or by left-clicking (just like Windows Explorer).
I agree, though, that giving the developer an option during creation of the JSP page would be nice.

Changing Package Name of an AIR apk

Hi. I have created an AIR app that is currently in the market. To update the app, obviously I must keep the same package name. My first version's were packaged using Eclipse with the ADT plugin.
Now to use AIR 3.0 Native Extensions (ANE) which were not available when I first developed the app, I currently must create my APK using AIR's command line tools. Unfortunately, these command line tools force you to have a package name that starts with the word "air". For example, I need the package name "com.example". AIR creates the package name as "air.com.example".
So now, I cannot update my app in the market since the package name has changed. Adobe has this horrific article to help you rename and remove the "air" in the package. I'm not a great programmer so this has really stumped me.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/875/cpsid_87562.html
Apparently this info is out of date or incorrect in a few areas.
I have completely stumbled at step 12 which uses apkbuilder:
apkbuilder final.apk -u -z resources.arsc -f classes.dex
I am getting this error message:
THIS TOOL IS DEPRECATED. See --help for more information.
java.io.FileNotFoundException: resources.arsc does not exist
I have used step 10 to create the new resources.arsc file. It clearly DOES exist and in the correct location. I tried using apkbuilder with other resources.arsc files taken from other projects. I still get the same error message.
Maybe there is another way to do this using another tool like like apkTool. http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/
I tried this but then couldn't get jarsigner to sign the apk properly.
Is there a chance in hell of this working? There doesn't seem to be much about this topic on the internet. If anyone is interested in this, I have a zip file with a sample AIR apk, windows bat files for all the command line work, and all the needed utilities so they don't need to be downloaded. To get started you just need to change my path.bat to fit your system. And you need notepad++ (or an equivalent) to batch automate renaming the package name across several files.

Thanks so much!

If the DisplayObject is on the timeline then its name cannot
be modified, but the name property of dynamically created
DisplayObjects can be changed. (DisplayObject.name:String
read/write).

The package file is missing from the project directory

Today after working in SSIS all day with no problems, I re-opened one of my projects and got the message:
The package file ‘package_name.dtsx’ is missing from the project directory. This package has been skipped, and project will continue to load.
So two of my packages loaded and all remaining packages where skipped, one pop-up dialog for each “missing” package. I then looked in my project directory and all my packages are still there.
1. Has anyone experienced this and found why this happens?
2. Can I just import my packages again and be good to go?
Update:
I discovered that this had to do with renaming my packages in SSDT. For some reason the name changes did not get saved into the project .dtproj file. I was able to correct by renaming the .dtsx files in the project directory to their original name. Then
I re-opened the project, renamed the packages to the new names, saved and closed all packages. At this point you need to save the project, which actually wasn't really straight forward. You need to highlight the project name in Solution Explorer
and then from the File menu select 'Save Selected Items'. This updates the .dtproj file.
Upon closing SSDT, a dialog SOMETIMES appears asking you to save the project, after selecting Yes, the .dtproj file also updates. However, I've realized that upon closing the project, that the dialog asking to save the project does not always appear,
depending on what has changed in the project. To be safe, use method previously described, especially after renaming packages. Also, if SSDT happens to crash after you have renamed a package, the project will not re-open properly.

I remember one such occurrence when I used Source Control (if I recall right it was TFS), and yes, you can simply right-click on the packages folder and choose 'add existing package'.
But check for project file perhaps it has a wrong reference. E.g. something from the outside manipulated on the package files.

Undefined method error in custom package even with proper import

I edited the title of this thread to be a little more descriptive about the help I need.
The background: I have a multi-file Flash application that allows users to navigate through multiple pages (similar to a website). I realized yesterday that with each mouse click, I'm loading a page into memory, but not unloading it. After navigating through several pages, my memory really starts to take a hit. So, I want to define a custom package that loads each page and unloads the previous page.
I've gotten as far as defining the pageLoad function, but I keep getting an error that doesn't make sense to me (unless I'm importing the wrong flash packages).
When I test the Flash, I consistently get the following error:
dtutils.as – 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method addChild. – addChild(pageLoader);
Everything I have found indicates that to import the addChild method, I need to import flash.display.Sprite, which I'm doing, but I am still getting the error.
You'll have to forgive me as I'm not extremely familiar with objects or actionscript. I'm more of a hacker, but I grasp things quickly and can build on what I've already learned. This might be obvious to others, but I can't find anything that indicates that I'm doing anything wrong with my code, so any help you can give is greatly appreciated!!
My package code:
package com.clientname.demo
    import flash.display.Sprite;
    import flash.display.Loader;
    import flash.events.MouseEvent;
    import flash.net.URLRequest;
    public class dtutils
        //Properties
        public var pageLoader:Loader = new Loader();
        public var pagePath:URLRequest;
        //Constructor
        public function loadPage(url:String)
            pagePath = new URLRequest(url);
            pageLoader.load(pagePath);
            addChild(pageLoader);
I've also attempted to replace the four import lines in my package with the following 3 import lines, but I still get the same error message:
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.net.*;
The code I'm using to import my package and call the function in my flash file is:
import com.clientname.demo.dtutils;
dtutils.loadPage("../filepath/filename.swf");
I appreciate any help anyone can give me.

Thanks for the feedback. Being fairly new with actionscript (and an object approach, in general), and not being a real developer, I often struggle with naming conventions. Didn't even realize there was a specific convention for what is considered a utility and what isn't. However, I appreciate your feedback and will rename my package so that it isn't confusing to any other real developers that may need to do something with this code in the future.
Thanks!

How to change the package name of View or Window

Hi all,
i have created the Webdynpro Application.i have some Views and Windows in the WebDynpro Peoject.i want to change the package Names of Views.is it possible???
thanks in advance
regards
Naidu

Hi Naidu
Though you rename the package name, the view in that package refers to the old package and hence that view can be used in other views by including the old package name only. Renaming doesn't have significance that you expect. You can create a new package and views in it and copy the implementation of views from the old package to the views in the new package.

HowTo: Use package structure in generated code?

Hi,
I'm trying to find out if JCS is meeting my requirements for JSF development. So far it is pretty good, although the lack of support for new components is defeating the purpose of JSF for a great deal.
One of the most terrible things I encountered so far is the fact that I've been unable to get JCS to create a package structure to contain the generated code. In other words, I want JSC to generate the code in "src/com.foo.bar.my.application" instead of just the root of "src/" (where src/ means the source-folder of my project).
This is a real drawback.
Maybe I'm wrong, but in that case it's a plain bug because I can't get it to work.
Iwan

Admitedly, Creator does not yet offer much flexibility in terms of user-defined package structure. I know you won't like this, but here's a workaround/hack that almost gets to where you want to be.
First of all, the binding between jsp file and backing bean is defined by the relative positioning between the two files. A JSP file at the top level folder maps to a backing bean just under the assigned java package name (something like webapplicationxx). If you create a directory structure for your JSPs and create pages in them, Creator will create a corresponding package hierarchy for the backing beans.
So, one way to contrive a java package structure such as com.foo.bar is as follows (best to start with a new project):
1. Under the Web Pages folder, create a subfolder hierarchy "foo/bar".
3. Under the Java Sources folder, rename the top level package to 'com'.
4. You may now create Web pages in the foo/bar subfolder. You'll probably want to cut & paste the Resources directory into the foo/bar folder if you want to use stylesheets, etc. As the pages are created, notice that a com/foo/bar package structure is created under the Java Sources node where the backing beans are maintained.
One final note, due to a bug in Creator, renaming the package in step 3 does not properly update references to the old pacakge in SessionBean1.java. These will have to be manually changed in the editor. Also note that the ApplicationBean1 and SessionBean1 files must remain at under to top-level package.
We acknowledge this deficiency in Creator and are working to fix it in the next release.

Deploying Air package via Air installer

I am attempting to deploy a .air package as part of the Adobe AIR installer as detailed by the Adobe deployment documentation.
Adobe AIR 1.5.1 is stored under \\server\My Installs\Package\1.5.1 and the package is \\server\My Installs\Package\
I have configured a file called .airinstall.cfg (using Command Prompt as Windows Explorer will not allow leading dots) and the contents of the file are as follows:
..\package.air
However, upon running Adobe AIR Installer under an admin account (also tried using it renamed as package.exe) the egg timer appears briefly, disappears, then nothing happens. Neither AIR nor the package are deployed. I have tried changing the contents of the .airinstall.cfg file to the full path
\\server\My Installs\Package\package.air
However, this leads to the same issue. If I remove the .cfg file then the Adobe AIR Installer launches as expected.
Clearly there is something wrong with my .airinstall.cfg file, but checking the docs again I'm not sure what.

Hi,
AIR file internally is a zip file, and if you upload this file on any web server, by default it will show up as zip file only.
To make the AIR file to open up with AIR installer, you need to set the MIME type of AIR file in the web server configuration.
There are many articles on net which talks about adding AIR MIME type in web servers.
I googled and found many articles, adding link to some of the articles
http://www.davidtucker.net/2008/01/08/update-your-air-mime-type/
http://blogs.adobe.com/ashutosh/2009/02/setting_the_correct_mime_type.html
Hope this will solve your problem.
Thanks
