Requesting guidance on how best to deal with removal of CreateElementSteps for tables when option to 'script validation for new constraints' is enabled during schema compare

I have a DeploymentPlanModifer subclass that is responsible for removing certain tables from a deployment plan under specific conditions. It is relatively trivial to find the
CreateElementSteps I need and subsequently remove them via
DeploymentPlanModifier.Remove(), but...
... if in my comparison I have enabled the 'Script validation for new constraints' option, the deployment plan will contain a
DeploymentScriptDomStep with a Batch containing AlterTableConstraintModificationStatements for tables with foreign key constraints. My problem starts here - there will be an orphaned
AlterTableConstraintModificationStatement for each of the tables that I removed. Obviously, execution of the generated script comes to a grinding halt when asking SQL Server to to alter a table that is never created.
I'm able to get around this by digging around in the aforementioned batches and removing the orphaned alter statements, but this seems really hacky, which makes me think I'm missing the proper way of dealing with this.
So... if anyone is aware of a more correct way of avoiding this problem, I would really appreciate finding out more about it.
Thanks in advance for any help. :-)

Hi Greg. Unfortunately there is not an easy solution here. Walking the deployment model, spotting potential issues and excluding them really is what you have as an option here. The alternative is to pre-process the dacpac to have it in the form you want,
but I'm not sure if this is an option in your case and it also has limitations.
Regards,
Kevin

  • How best to deal with multiple frame rates in storyline?

    Hey all, my lack of attention to detail may have cost me hours.  I have a movie I am working on and made the stupid assumption that all my clips are the same frame rate.  Don't ask why I didn't check - just sheer stupidity.
    So now I have numerous clips in the storyline all meticulously edited to sync with other clips, music, the whole nine.  Some source clips are 24p while others are 60i.  Do I really have to go back and convert each clip individually?  I am looking to preserve quality as much as possible, and I know getting 60i to 24p will create some loss, but is there a nice and easy way to do the converting all at once after I complete the storyline?
    Thanks in advance.  Time to go do something else while I wait for answers...

    on playback inside FCPX.
    And on export.
    you'll notice in the 'Retime Menu' the Option 'Conform Speed' - eg, when I add a 60p clip to my 25p Project, I get a wonderful smooth slomow, due to the 60fps get 'stretched' to 25fps.
    if I don't Conform Speed, the 60p get playbacked - in a 25p pProject! - in real time => no slowmo
    How 'good' FCPX does the marvel to down-cascade 60i into 24p ... try yourself.
    no interlaced material in use here.
    quality is in the eye of the beholder ...

  • How does one deal with transparency in a placed file in InDesign?

    I suppose this may seem elementary, but I'm relatively new to it so here goes:
    First off, my print shop says that placed images should be in EPS format. I'm creating my files in Illustrator and some of them use a gradient mask to fade an object away. When saved as an EPS, the gradient mask shows as a white box instead of fading into the background. When I copy/paste my Illustrator image into a new Photoshop file, save it as a PSD, bring that PSD into Illustrator and save it as an EPS, the whole file is in a white box.
    Example. I want those aisle markers to not be in white boxes.

    Thanks.

    If possible, one finds a new printer who can handle your files properly and doesn't insist on .eps.
    What format are you delivering to the Printer? If it's anything other than PDF (and that's at their request) all the more reason to reread the first sentence. Why on earth are you moving things from Illustrator to Photoshop and back to Illustrator? Either one of those will save as .eps (ugh), though you need to use a clipping path for transparent areas coming out of photoshop (don't really know how Illy handles it when you say to save .eps with transparent background), but you are FAR better off with either native .AI or .PSD, both of which support transparencey, unlike .eps.If yo are delivering PDF, as you should be, it makes no difference to the printer what format the placed content uses (and it shouldn't matter to him even with native files unless he's hopelessly stuck in the 90s).
    In any event, when importing from Illustrator, make sure to show the import options and check the transparent background box.

  • How does Essbase deals with multi-users

    How does Essbase deals with multi-users connecting for reading and writing in the same time? How the global coherence of the database is controlled when users are updating dimension and data all together?

    For reading, Essbase handles multiple requests concurrently. For metadata (outline) only one user at a time can make and save changes.For data, Essbase uses a block level locking mechanism, which implies that an update to a block can only be done by a single update request, but other blocks in the database are still updateable by other users.Hope that helps.Regards,Jade---------------------------------Jade ColeSenior Business Intelligence ConsultantClarity [email protected]

    You cannot connect to TC using USB.
    Plug the TC into the computer using ethernet.
    Press and hold the reset button on the TC for about 10sec.. until front led rapidly flashes.. release it.
    Open the airport utility and make sure you can locate the TC. Check the disk page that the disk started up without errors.

  • How can I deal with long sql by the oo4o?

    I am using VB and oo4o to develop a sql executor which is a extention of an old system.
    For some reason, I have to use oo4o v8.1.7 to deal with Oracle Database 8i to 11g.
    But when I send a very long sql(11KB) to it I got a error in the VB enviroment.
    The Err.Description is "automention error. Started object is disconnected by the client.".
    The Err.Number is "-2147417848 ".
    The sql that I send it to the program is a simple select sql that like select a, b, c, substrb(d, 1, 2), substrb(e, 2, 3) .... from A_TBL where A=aa;
    This sql is normally executed by the sqlplus but I got an error by the oo4o.
    When I insert a '' between the 30Xth items, it got exectuted normally.
    ex. select a, b, c, substrb(d, 1, 2), substrb(e, 1, 2) ..... substrb(303th, 3, 4), '', substrb(304th, 1, 2) ... from A_TBL where A = aa;
    How can I deal with this problem? Thanks.

    So how can use this function correctly?By learning what exceptions are, how they're used, and what you can do to deal with them. There's a tutorial here: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/exceptions/index.htmlAnd here's a quick overview:
    The base class for all exceptions is Throwable. Java provides Exception and Error that extend Throwable. RuntimeException (and many others) extend Exception.
    RuntimeException and its descendants, and Error and its descendants, are called unchecked exceptions. Everything else is a checked exception.
    If your method, or any method it calls, can throw a checked exception, then your method must either catch that exception, or declare that your method throws that exception. This way, when I call your method, I know at compile time what can possibly go wrong and I can decide whether to handle it or just bubble it up to my caller. Catching a given exception also catches all that exception's descendants. Declaring that you throw a given exception means that you might throw that exception or any of its descendants.
    Unchecked exceptions (RuntimeException, Error, and their descendants) are not subject to those restrictions. Any method can throw any unchecked exception at any time without declaring it. This is because unchecked exceptions are either the sign of a coding error (RuntimeException), which is totally preventable and should be fixed rather than handled by the code that encounters it, or a problem in the VM, which in general can not be predicted or handled.
