Restful services, widgets and the widget foundation

Hi,
I installed the widget foundation and found the tutorial helpful when craeting a simple RFC call widget for displaying a customers details.
In the description document I raed even RESTful services can be created with the foundation.
Is a tutorial or at least a prototype application available ? How can a REST service be build in SAP anyway (say for a customer) ?
Would be great to skip all the RFc and SOAP stuff in favour of http://myserver:port/customers/12345 for all the details.
Any help on this is appreciated.
Marcus

REST service can be simple BSP page which takes some parameters and process them and returns the result in xml or json format.
check out my weblog at /people/durairaj.athavanraja/blog/2006/10/10/sap-logged-on-users-list-widget ,
i am using a similar approach

I am trying to open a service request and the site does not work.

I am trying to open a service request and the site does not work with ANY browser. I get the page https://getsupport.apple.com/GetParts.action which says "Send in for service. We just need a little more information." The continue button does not work. I've seen this problem before trying to file support requests. It's as if Apple simply does not want you to create requests.

I just went through several screens and had no problems. Try clearing your browser's cache and/or history.

Web Services, Schemas, and the xsi:type attribute

Hi List,
I have several questions reqarding web services, schemas, and the use of the xsi:type
attribute in messages.
Schemas:
Q1: How complex can a web service schema be?
Q2: Is it reasonable for a schema to contain derived types by extension [1]?
Q3: Could you use the International Purchase Order Schema [2] with a web service?
xsi:type
Q1: Is it reasonable for a web service to use the xsi:type attribute in the message(s)?
If I am interpreting Section 4.1.15 of the BasicProfile-1.0a [3] correctly, this
appears to be appropriate in certain circumstances.
Q2: When is it appropriate to use the xsi:type attribute? If a schema contains
derived types by extension [1]? If a schema contains xsd:anyType?
Q3: How does using the xsi:type attribute affect interoperability?
And finally,
Q4: Are there any examples available demonstrating the use of the xsi:type attribute
in messages?
Whew !!!
TIA,
Kent

About Dashboard and the Widgets.

Hi everyone, I am looking for a clear explanation about memory usage and the dashboard items: the checkbox, the - sign.
The Gidget Manager says that "uncheck widgets to disable them", so I do that, but the widgets always came back.
I was wondering, how much resources of the computer the dashboard consumes?, I like widgets, but I have only 512 MB of RAM, and whant to squeeze as much power as I can. And don't put things that consumes resources, and stay there, doing nothing.
If anyone could give me a tip, I will appretiate.
Thanks from argentina,
Pablo

This question is easy enough to answer simply by looking at the process list in the Activity Viewer. You can find the Activity Viewer in the Utilities folder.

Adding widgets to the widgets panel, and including resources.

I use Google Checkout and various other items which would be nice to setup as widgets instead of dealing with the HTML snippet widget and fiddling with editing HTML and JavaScript manually and having it in the page as an invisible box. Does anyone know of a way of adding a widget to widget palette in iWeb? I'm not against coding a plugin in Xcode, if that's what it takes, but Xcode doesn't seem to have any templates or documentation on the subject. The iwdgt bundles in the app's resources directory give part of the story, but if someone has a simple solution, that would be excellent.
Second, we frequently have things like PDFs and resources that we'd like to make downloadable from our site, but I don't see a good way to include them in the published product (I can place them somewhere separately and link to them, of course). Any suggestion?

Thank you very much! For the prompt and useful solution. Sorry that I am a newbie to Mac. Thank you once again.

AC 8 - Does this version come stock with the email widget and print widget? Are there other non stock widgets I should also purchase?

Thinking of purchasing AC8 for training and quizzes / assessments. Does it come with the print and email widgets? Are there other widgets I might also need that don't come stock in Version 8?
Thanks
Tina

Thanks Lilybiri for your response. I had a version of Captivate version 7 and had to purchase an email piece separately so I would receive notifications on quiz completions etc. I just need to know if that would also be the case for the print function and email function in 8.
Thanks

WCF rest services STS and JavaScript

Hello
I want to have rest services that are claims enabled, the token should be issued by the STS after the user log in to the web app. This token shall be saved and used by JavaScript calls to the rest services. Is this possible? if so kindly provide a sample
or explanation, since I have been through a lot of examples for STS and rest and trying to build this scenario but it seems very complex. I have spent a lot of time on this.
Thank you in advance
Regards,
Moe

Hi Don Hamdan,
>>I want to have rest services that are claims enabled, the token should be issued by the STS after the user log in to the web app. This token shall be saved and used by JavaScript calls to the rest services. Is this possible?
Yes, it is possible, I will recommand you build the claims enabled WCF Services using WIF, the following is the scenario of it:
In this way the client will use the WIF to send credentials to the STS and upon successful authentication, the agent is issued a token by the STS and the agent sends this STS-issued token to the WCF service.The claims enabled WCF service is configured
to trust the STS and the tokens it issues. Besides, the claims enabled WCF service uses WIF to validate the token and to parse it.
For more information, please try to refer to the following article:

Slideshow Widget and Composition Widget Synchronizing Problem

I have a slideshow with images and composition widget of text that corresponds with each slide. The settings are the same for both, works fine on desktop yet on the tablet and iphone versions, they are messed up.
Here's the BC site: dezinegirl
I have been waiting for Customer Care via Chat to figure it out looking at my files, but it's been an HOUR and I don't think he knows.
Anyone else have this issue?
BTW: I am working with a purchased template.
Thanks!

Hi Pam,
Instead of using the slideshow widget in sync with the composition widget, I will suggest that you switch to using one composition widget. Slideshow widgets does not allow text frame but composition widgets allows images as well as text frames. So you can allocate individual text frames to each target and that should give you the effect that you are looking for with no sync issues.
Let me know if you need more clarifications on this.

Why would menu button's active state not work? Regardless if I import PSD button or use menu widget from the widget library.

I am using Adobe Muse CC (up-to-date) and tried to troubleshoot the following: Menu button's active state is not working, both on preview and after publishing. I tried many ways to place menu-designed buttons myself using photoshop and used widgets library (buttons, compositions, menus,etc.). Lastly, in regards to buttons, one of my menu buttons appear clear and crisp (psd button) and all others are blurry (though designed,saved and imported the same way);what could be the problem? Can anyone help?Thanks.

That line is for pop up message?You would typically use a tool tip for that.
The "Accessibility" features are different and I believe you need additional software to take advantage of them:

How to VAlidate Google Widget and pageflakes Widget URL

Hello every-one , we r using google and pageflakes widgets in our site.
and we check these urls like this
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
GetMethod method = new GetMethod(url);
method.setFollowRedirects(false);
int statusCode = client.executeMethod(method);
But it is give us the status code of url , but it is not provide complete validation that there is widgets or not on that url.
so plg give the answer of this question soon.

Hi
Welcome to Apple Discussions
Google suggestions can be shut off by installing 3rd party add-on Glims. When installed, Glims preference settings/options are found as a separate panel in Safari Preferences. Also, a much more functional search panel replaces Safari's default window.
Regarding the URL prompts, press the space bar once before typing the URL. No prompts appear. This is the only workaround.

Muse COMPOSITION Light Box Display Widget and other Widgets

How is one supposed to import images into the COMPOSITION Lightbox Display Widget. I followed an Adobe tutorial that said, "place an image to the page, then cut the image so it's on the clipboard, then paste it to the thumbnail".
This seems ridiculously tedious and time consuming.
Why is there no right click menu on the thumbnail itself for placing images?
After following these instructions I was confronted with the fact that the image did not resize automatically to fit the thumbail. To get the "Trigger", "Image Frame" and "Image" to be equal in size using the arrow tool is no quick task. (Muse badly needs "fit frame to content" buttons.)
I managed to link several images to several "Triggers" but can't figure out how to link more than one image to the "Target" div.
The "Target" Image frames are stacked one on top of the other so once I linked an image to one of the large target hero slides in the gallery it was impossible to link any other images. It is possible to drag out the "Target" frames so that they are visible so long as the gallery doesn't exceed five images and one has the available screen space. But this brings me to my next issue with Muse.
Why don't the alignment tools work in any of the widgets? It's so extreemly time consuming and tedious to have to size and center all images by hand. What makes it more tedious is that there doesn't seem to be an isolation mode where one can just work with the image portion of a gallery widget without accidently selecting other parts of the widget instead.
Why doesn't "group" functionality work inside the Muse widgets? The ability to group objects would make scaling and resizing tolerable.
In addition to trying to use the COMPOSITION Lightbox Display Widget I also tried the SLIDESHOW Lightbox Widget and had many of the same issues as described above, save importing images. What is the intended distinction between the Composition Lightbox and the Slideshow Lightbox?
I wanted to build a website in Muse because I thought it would be quick and easy without the tediousness of hand coding. However I'm finding it's taking longer to do things in Muse since the widgets have such limited functionallity and the customization tools are so clunky.
What workflows did the Muse team have in mind for customizing image galleries, specifically with regards to linking images for thumbnails and large slides; scaling lagre slide images for uniformity of size and centering slide images? Or is Muse just a victim of it's own simplicity?
I would love to know that there are indeed workflows for these issues otherwise I see more disadvantages than advantages in using Muse over other tools.

I would also like to know this. I am having trouble editing a composition gallery from a purchased template. I basically want a lightbox gallery with triggers on top for different categories. :/

Service Master and the price

Hi ALL,
Here i have 2 different services ( service masters). I am maintaiong the price for these service items. However the cost of these service items is actually based on some other parameters e.g.
"Form a Slab" and "Form a Column" are 2 different services. Both has cement and the labour cost as cost components. When I change the cost of cement, we want that the cost of both the services should change based on the cement component in them.
How can we map this. Does Model Service specification or SSC will help for this?
Regards,
Prashant

Hi
If you mainatin the condition type for cement in the PO line item Conditions tab instead of services then this will effect both the services in the PO line item.
Thanks & Regards

Machine Translation Service Applicatrion and the MicroSoft Translator Hub

Hi
So we are looking at setting up Machine Translation SA and the steps according to TechNet appear to be
1 - Create the Service App
2 - Configure it
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj553772.aspx
I can't see in the configuration any reference to where it goes to on the internet to do the translations. Does this have to be configured separately? Does it go somewhere by default unless otherwise configured?
At the bottom of the article it states "You can configure the Machine Translation Service to use the custom translation system by passing the category ID in the
MachineTranslationCategory parameter."
What does the Machine Translation service use if you don't configure a custom translation system using the Translation hub?
Thanks
J

Hi Jon,
If you set the Machine Translation Service Application to use “Use default internet settings” in Online Translation Connection section, then the requests will be sent to the cloud-hosted machine translation service.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/wbaer/archive/2012/11/12/introduction-to-machine-translation-services-in-sharepoint-2013.aspx
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj163145%28v=office.15%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
When the Machine Translation Service application processes a translation request, it forwards the request to the
Microsoft Translator cloud-hosted machine translation service, where the actual translation work is performed.
And the Microsoft Translator service has its own translation systems to do the translation work.
Thanks,
Victoria Xia

Oracle Linux and the Linux Foundation

According to several blogs and resources, Oracle has been a long time partner and supporter of the Linux Foundation. The Linux Foundation ensures that Linux remains free and technically advanced by marshaling the resources of its members and the open source development community.
Some of the Oracle Linux enhancements, such as Dtrace and Ksplice require a ULN support subscription. It seem obvious that not all Oracle enhancements are freely available. Are Dtrace and Ksplice open source projects? How does it fit into GPL licensing and the tasks of the Linux Foundation?

Red Hat has done a good job to promote Linux for enterprise systems and work with vendors to support RHEL. The product evaluation license and paid subscriptions for necessary updates and Red Hat products was obviously something Red Hat did to make money. Not really knowing GPL back then I though it was unethical to sell Linux. I'm not necessarily a fan of GPL and I guess most people don't understand that it is a copyleft license, which does not prohibit to sell a program for money, but requires to provide the source code.
I think the business concepts of RHEL won't work much longer in the future - Oracle Linux is a good example. So if RHEL gets cheaper, will Oracle screw in the price tag again? The price spiral can only go down. Why not ending it and find better ways to get paid.
People who already have a ULN subscription will probably be happy to try Oracle Linux exclusive value-added components, but will people who are interested to try these add-ons be willing to buy a subscription? I think no serious business buys any cats in the bag, not even for a pittance or just because it's Oracle.
Most business software today is complex enough already. Software evaluation and fancy licensing are show stoppers. The criteria to choose one product over another are often rather vendor loyalty, lemming syndrome, fear of incompatibility, fear to be left behind, market share and cost of ownership. For a serious businesses, the perception or guarantee of future product support is more important than saving a few bucks.
Linux does no longer have to prove that it is a serious and reliable operating system. It think Oracle could benefit from providing everything Oracle Linux for a free subscription, not necessarily GPL. There would be more people trying Oracle Linux for fun or to see what the exclusive features are all about and eventually become enthusiasts and buy a technical support contract for running Oracle products in a business environment, in which case Oracle does not have to be cheaper than RHEL anymore. Competition on the level of technical features will improve a product, a cheaper price won't.
