Safari 7: Stop Breaking/Impeding the Use Of Local *.pac Files.

Once again, a release of Safari has hosed my ability to use a local proxy.pac file. I have a workaround, which is to put the file in ~/Library/Keychains, but from looking at
file:///System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/WebKit2.framework/Versions/A/Resources/ com.apple.WebKit.NetworkProcess.sb, it looks like that will go away as an option when rdar://problem/10479685 is fixed.  Why does Apple think people don't need to use local PAC files? I need mine to be on my system, not on a remote host. Please let me do that. And please bring back the ability to select a local PAC file from my machine via a file dialog. If that directory has to be on the "blessed sandboxed locations" list, then fine, but please let us know where said directory is. And give us assurance that it won't be arbitrarily taken away in the future.
I realize that this is more of a request to restore a feature, but I don't know where to send feature requests, and frankly, I'm hoping for a blizzard of "me too" responses.

The blizzard seems to not be materializing. But we'll stand fast, davidedmondson, as maybe it's the calm before the storm.

  • Using a local XML file for parsing - iPhone

    Good afternoon everyone. I am trying to create an application for the iPhone that will use an XML file for it's data source. I have been attempting to convert the SeismicXML application from the dev center to use a locally stored file, but to no avail. I have it building and running fine, but no data is appearing. Is there anyone that can give me an example of parsing with a locally stored file? Thanks!

    NSString *filePath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"myFile" ofType:@"xml"];
    NSData *myData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:filePath];
    if ( myData ) {
    NSXMLParser *parser = [[NSXMLParser alloc] initWithData:myData];
    [parser setDelegate:myObject];
    [parser setShouldProcessNamespaces:NO];
    [parser setShouldReportNamespacePrefixes:NO];
    [parser setShouldResolveExternalEntities:NO];
    [parser parse];
    NSError *parseError = [parser parserError];
    if ( parseError && error) {

  • Building an application that does not use any local program files or libraries

    I need to build an application that will not use any local libraries or LabView program files(even if LabView is installed on the PC). I also am curious if anyone knows if there is a way to debug such an application(in it's compiled state).
    Any help on these topics would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello,
    I am unclear on what you are trying to accomplish here. As the previous poster mentioned, if you enable debugging when building your application, you can remotely connect and probe the block diagram of the running executable. Executables use the run-time engine but could also access drivers or other run-times if using a specialized toolkit/module. This all depends on your application.

  • HOw to create a Batch file for java application and whats the use of this ?

    HI,
    How to create a Batch file for java application ?
    And whats the use of creating batch file ?
    Thanks in advance

    First of all, you're OT.
    Second, you can find this everywhere in the net.
    If you got a manifest declaring main class (an classpath if needed), just create a file named whatever.bat, within same directory of jar file, containing:
    javaw -jar ./WhateverTheNameOfYourJarIs.jar %*By the way, assuming a Windows OS, you can just double click the jar file (no batch is needed).
    Otherwise use:
    javaw -cp listOfJarsAndDirectoriesSeparedBySemiColon country/company/application/package/className %*Where 'country/company/application/package/' just stands for a package path using '/' as separator instead of '.'
    Don't specify the .class extension.
    Javaw only works on Windows (you asked for batch, I assumed .BAT, no .sh), in Linux please use java.exe (path may be needed, Windows doesn't need it 'cause java's executables are copied to system32 folder in order to be always available, see PATH environment variable if you don't know what I'm talking about) and use ':' as classpath (cp) separator.
    The '%***' tail is there in order to pass all parameters, it only works on Windows, refer to your shell docs for other OSs (something like $* may work).
    This way you have a command you can call to launch your code (instead of opening NetBeans just to see your app working). You could schedule tasks on it or just call it in any command prompt (hope you know what it is 'cause there have been people in this very same forum with no clue about it, if not just hold the 'Windows button' and press 'R', then type 'cmd' and run it).
    Finally add dukes and give 'hem away.
    Bye.

  • What is the use of XML file in EJB

    Hi,
    Generally EJB contains
    1) Home Interface
    2) Remote Interface
    3) Bean class
    4) XMl file
    In xml file we will mention something like
    <home>name of home interface </home>
    <remote?name of remote interface</remote>
    what is the use of this xml file and how it works.
    Thanks.

    It's called the deployment descriptor and it's used by the container to support your bean's configuration. For instance, if you want container managed persistence for an entity bean then you need to tell the container which table to use in which database with the column mappings, etc.

  • Use of CatalogTools property file

    Hi All,
    When we can configure everything about a repository in it's properties file, what is the use of CatalogTools.properties file iin ATG.
    Please give us the brief description.
    Thanks,
    Kushal.

    CatalogTools.properties defines the component that is used to access the properties of your catalog.
    It points to a class which contains the functions for access methods for the catalog properties.
    Ideally all the methods which directly communicate with your catalog should be in this component.
    As the ATG commerce programming guide describes it - "The tools component that performs low-level operations on the catalog repository"

  • SharePoint "Use my local drafts folder" not to be displayed

    Hi,
    Is it possible to prevent SharePoint from displaying “Use
    my local drafts folder” dialog box and
    disable this option on default so users won't be able to store files locally?

    I see a similar thread here - http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/f7e2ee0d-92ff-4bfe-95e7-1ba7b95514cc/disable-the-use-my-local-drafts-folder-option-in-sharepoint-2010-open-document-dialog-box?forum=sharepointgeneralprevious
    which mentions that You can not directly edit that dialog (it's an activex control client side). But you can set
    group policy to modify the office client behavior

  • Missing "Use My Local Drafts Folder" Checkbox

    We work with Office 2010 32 bit and SharePoint 2010. After we update the Lync to 2013 version, we find in SP at check out "Use My Local Drafts Folder" checkbox does not appear any more. I read this article
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/27e03f00-7549-4ca9-8973-9620ce40a78c/no-checkbox-appears-in-dialong-box-to-use-local-drafts-folder?forum=sharepointadminprevious, it said The “Use my local drafts  folder” functionality has
    been removed for Office  2013. Actually we didn't install Word, Excel 2013.... But since Lync 2013 belongs to Office 2013 now, perhaps during install of Lync 2013 some office 2013 features or components have been also installed.
    I need a workaround, because we don't plan to update to Office 2013 and SharePoint 2013. Can I uninstall some office 2013 components to active "Use My Local Drafts Folder" again?  

    I have found the solution. I uninstall the "Office Shared Features" and "Office Tools" from Lync 2013 and keep just Lync 2013 component. Then I have repaired the Office 2010. After that I see "My Local Drafts Folder"
    again and Lync 2013 works also. Yeah :-)

  • Use my local drafts folder - Some Yes, Some No

    Hello,
    I have recently upgraded to MOSS 2007.  When checking out a file some of my users get the prompt to use my local drafts folder and some do not.  Does anyone know why not all users are getting this prompt?
    Thank you,

    Hi,
    If the program that you want to use to edit the file is compatible with Windows SharePoint Services 3.0, you may see a message that asks if you want to work with the file as a local draft. If you want to work on a copy of the file on your hard disk, leave the “Use my local drafts folder” check box selected. If you want the draft copy to be stored on the server while it is checked out to you, clear the check box.
    If you are checking out a file that was created by a program that isn't compatible with Windows SharePoint Services 3.0, the Use my local drafts folder check box does not appear and you cannot work with the file offline
    For more information about Check out file, please refer to: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepointserver/HA101535701033.aspx

  • There was a problem connecting to the server "my server.local" this file is available on your computer. Access the files and volumes locally.

    Hi,
    I have a strange problem connecting one of the office laptops (Macbook Pro 10.7) to the disk in the Apple Time Capsule.  It's just one laptop that has this problem and the other 3 no problems at all and they all run OS X 10.7 Lion, I can access the Time Capsule disk over WAN on all machines but locally on the problem machine i get this message "There was a problem connecting to the server "myserver.local" this file is available on your computer. Access the files and volumes locally."   Now from this message it sounds like the problem laptop thinks the network drive (Time Capsule) is the same as it's self in the way of name or address however they clearly have different IP addresses locally.   
    Any ideas on this would be apreciated as I can only think a clean install but don't want to do this if not necessary.
    Thanks
    Jarrah

    I think I gave you some bad info in the above, where i enterered the text "myserver.local" & "example.local" this was the host name of the server (Time Capsule) so not local on the computer.
    No i didn't try your method, I'll give it a go - I thought the folder option was for local files and not on a server ?

    every time I try to use internet, the application(firefox/safari/chrome) stop working but when I use the modem on windows it works great. whats the problem?

    I just spoke with Tesco technical support (having been transferred to them by Clubcard support), who told me that the problems people are experiencing when visiting the Tesco site via Safari aren't currently being addressed because "not enough people have called to complain about it".
    I asked what percentage of people he thought might make the effort to call instead of just giving up. He replied that he would be one of those who just gave up.
    So it would seem that if we would like the problem to be resolved, we each need to take a few moments to CALL TESCO and ensure our complaint is logged by the technical support team.
    Every voice helps
