Semicolon or not?

AS/400 complained when I supplied SQL statements ending with a semicolon. Is it best practise to end with a semicolon or not?

since it is not necessary at all for jdbc, I think you can remove it

Webi 4.0 Passing parameters - how the heck ! does it work or not ?

dear all
i am knew to all this, quite capable of reading manuals, and an ex ABAPer in SAP.
but when it comes to trying to pass a single parameter to a Webi report, based upon the new open document v4.0 syntax, it has finally got me.
it seems i am not alone either.
this works, and opens the webi with the full contents
http://localhost:8080/BOE/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?iDocID=AXofXym2kBRLuR4NwFiMPwo&sIDType=CUID&sType=wid
i have tried both, a "new parameter" and a universe parameter, based upon my dimension "State", with no such luck on the underlying webi query filter.
i thought i would only have to add "&lsSState=VIC" (no including the quotes), for it to filter my records for the state Victoria (no points for guessing where i am). But no. I still get all the same old records.
then i tried *District=VIC", still the same old records without applying the query filter.
so what am i doing wrong ! please ! help !
thanks

finally, here's the deal
the opendocument 4.0 documentation is wrong. the parameter values are separated by at semicolon, and not a comma. also, do not put square brackets around them.
this works
u2022     lsMpmDistrict=NSW
u2022     lsMDistrict=NSW
u2022     lsMpmDistrict=NSW;SA
u2022     lsMDistrict=NSW;SA
this does not work
u2022     lsMDistrict=[NSW],[VIC]
u2022     lsMDistrict=[NSW];[VIC]
if only the documentation explained it properly, i would have saved hours of time.

Ldapclient doesn't accept semicolon-separated parameters

When I try to change some of the parameters with ldpaclient using semicolon part of command after semicolon is not accepted.
I am trying folowng:
ldapclient mod -a serviceSearchDescriptor=passwd:ou=east,dc=example,dc=com?one;ou=west,dc=example,dc=com?one
#ldapclient list
NS_LDAP_SERVICE_SEARCH_DESC= passwd:ou=east,dc=example,dc=com?one
part after semicolon (;) is missing and authentication for group ou=west,dc=example,dc=com doesnt work.
Is this some bag in ldapclient?
My version of solaris is:
#uname -a
SunOS Ultra25 5.10 Generic_127127-11 sun4u sparc SUNW,A70

I'm presuming that if you've typed that into a shell, that the shell thinks everything after the semicolon is a separate command. And since variable assignments are valid commands, you don't get a syntax error. But you probably have a variable 'dc' set in your shell now.
Enclose the entire argument in quotes or escape the semicolons.

Diff tool - Bug with comments not escaped

Diff tool in version 3.1.07
I have a new table that includes comments on the columns. Some of those comments have single quotes in them like in the words "don't" or "user's". The diff script is not escaping those quotes in the CREATE TABLE DDL so the DDL fails.
Another issue is that semicolons are not placed at the end of CREATE OR REPLACE FORCE VIEW statements.
Edited by: EdInWisconsin on Feb 13, 2012 8:39 AM

Found another issue:
Forward slashes not placed at end of statements to create/replace packages or procedures. This caused several of my procs to run together and was pretty obvious once it happened but easy to miss when reviewing the script and obviously caused problems.

Drop Frame vs. Non Drop Frame Timecode in DVDSP3

The manual is rather spare in its discussion of the issue of timecode, but it does say that the first video asset determines whether the timecode in DVDSP is drop frame or non drop frame.
Question 1: Does this refer to the first video asset in the V1 track or the first video asset imported into the project?
Question 2: If video is encoded using Compressor prior to import into DVDSP, is the choice of drop frame or non drop frame set by Compressor, or does it automatically use the timecode inherent in the original video?
Question 3: Does the DVD spec require a particular timecode (or is either acceptable)? In other words, will DVDSP convert non drop frame video assets to drop frame (or vice versa) during the build process in order to conform to spec?
I am having timecode issues and I am trying to narrow down the culprit. It can be either FCP, Compressor or DVDSP, or some combination of the three. Since my timeline in DVDSP has a semicolon separator between the minute and second values, I am assuming DVDSP is operating using drop frame timecode.
How can I confirm the timecode of my video assets? Is there a way to get this information? I tried opening the video in QT and viewing properties but I could not find the info. QT does not seem to display frames so I cannot check the separator to see if it is a semicolon or not.
Thanks in advance for any and all help.

In the browser in Final Cut it will tell you all the information regarding your video assets or clips.
DVDSP lets you pick what time code you want in encode window and will conform your clips accordingly.
May I ask what kind of timecode issues you are having?

Problem with SQL Plus

I'm getting started with Oracle.
I've just successfully installed Oracle 11g. When I opened SQL plus, and tried typing a statement SELECT SYSDATE FROM dual, the answer display is : 2 .
Then i tried with SELECT 2*6 FROM dual, and it still appeared with 2.
I'm really confused.
Plz explain it to me. Thanks in advance.

Is this what you are seeing?

BODS cannot create store procedure at DB2 at Unix

Hi,
I run BODS X3.1 and it can't create, drop store procedures at DB2 at unix. It recommends to authorize the user to do so. However, I have checked DB2 online doc, it mentioned need to set CREATE PROCEDURE authority. However, I can't find any command to do it.
Does anyone using DB2 that can provide help?
Thank you.

I think I got found the bug. It is select from a regular table to load another regular table using Auto correct load method. If only normal loading, no create procedure sql is generated and no warning message.
For using Auto correct load method:
(1) first, it got to perform drop procedure as:
DROP PROCEDURE "BODSOWN".di1125368_1FOOTE; .
Note:
(a) I run this command at db2 and it contain syntax error, saying:
SQL0104N An unexpected token ";" was found following "WN".di1125368_1FOOTE".
(b) which mean the semicolon ; is not needed. If I delete this ; away, it can go through but still will complain the stored procedure "BODSOWN.di1125368_1FOOTE" doesn't exist. But that is another issue which is expected.
(2) secondly, It will generate a CREATE PROCEDURE as such:
CREATE PROCEDURE
"BODSOWN".di1125368_1FOOTE ( IN before_c1 VARCHAR (100) , IN after_c1 VARCHAR (1) , IN after_c2 VARCHAR (40) , IN after_c3
INTEGER , IN after_c4 VARCHAR (100) )
LANGUAGE SQL
BEGIN
DECLARE local_var INT DEFAULT 0;
SELECT COUNT(*) INTO local_var
FROM "BODSOWN"."FOOTER_RECORD"
WHERE "DI_FILENAME" = before_c1 ;
IF local_var = 0 THEN
INSERT INTO "BODSOWN"."FOOTER_RECORD" ("RECORD_TYPE", "SRCSYS_OR_COUNTER", "ROW_COUNTER", "DI_FILENAME")
VALUES (after_c1, after_c2, after_c3, after_c4 );
ELSE
UPDATE "BODSOWN"."FOOTER_RECORD"
SET "RECORD_TYPE" = after_c1 ,
"SRCSYS_OR_COUNTER" = after_c2 ,
"ROW_COUNTER" = after_c3 ,
WHERE "DI_FILENAME" = before_c1 ;
END IF;
END
Note:
(a) this create procedure contains syntax error, the line "ROW_COUNTER" = after_c3 , a comma shouldn't be inserted which afterward is the WHERE clause. Meaning is should be "ROW_COUNTER" = after_c3 without comma.
(b) if i run this create procedure at db2 without the comma error, it will be successful, if not if will give error saying:
SQL0104N An unexpected token ""DI_FILENAME"" was found following "" =
after_c3 , WHERE".

SDK - Win2K problem

Whenever I code java under Win2K i get the following error on every program:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: <classname>
however, when i run under linux the programs run without a hitch. i first had this problem with java 1.3 so i uninstalled it and upgraded to 1.4 but i still have the problem.
i also get compile errors when i try and create an instance of an external class in a program under Win2K, but when i run under linux, again the code is accepted fine.
i have compiled from the command line (instead of from third party editors) and i still get the errors so i know its not a problem with configuring the editor i choose to use.
any ideas? this is really important to me otherwise i cannot program under windows :-(

It's really strange... is the classpath properly set?
You use the -cp listing the paths in which your classes reside.
Notice also that under Windows the path separator char is ; (semicolon), and not : (colon) as it is in *X, and file separator is backslash, and not slash...
Example:
java -cp.\;..\myclasses;d:\javalibs\common.jar com.monky.myapp.MyApplicaton

Append text on dropping in jTextArea

Hello forum members;
I need help for appending some text while dropping in a text area.
My requirement is :
I have a jtextfield and jtextarea.I have to drag the texts from the text field and drop on textarea.
While dropping text from text field to textarea the text will move to textarea and then if the user will drag again the text from the textfield and drop on the textarea then the newly dragged text will append /add on the text at the end with a semicolon(;) .
For example :-
if the textfield contains text is "redtext" and drop for fist
time on text area the text area text will be "redtext" and when user drag for second time the text "bluetext " then the new text in the text area will be "redtext;bluetext"
and then if the user will drop "greentext " then the new text will be "redtext;bluetext;greentext" and so on. i.e a semicolon will be added at the end of the text.
Below is the code , please help me.

Thanks very much hiwa;
This code snippest helped me a lot.This is working fine.
But on the first drag also the semicolon appended in the jTextArea. How to avoid the appending of semicolon for the first drag , is there any method for it i.e while user will drop for the first time the semicolon will not be appended but while drop for second time onwords the semicolon will be appended.
And application requirement is bit changed .i.e
I have a jlabel and a jtext area (as mentioned before).But now to make the functionality easy for user ,,
the user will only drag the label not the text from the text field and then the corresponding texts from the text field will move with the label dragging and dropped on the text area i.e not the jlabel value will dropped only the text will drop on text area.
For eexample:
if the label value is 100 and the text fild contains the texts as "red" , if the user will drag the label i.e 100 the text "red" will be dragged and while dropping to text area the texts only from the text field i.e "red" will be dropped but 100 will not be dropped any where.
please help me
Thanks & Regards

The Java CLASSPATH separator character is platform dependent. For Windows it is the semicolon ; and not the colon : like it is on most Unix variants.

How to separate / validate multiple emails?

Hi,
User enters single or multiple emails in the field. We provide help saying that all emails must be separated by either a comma or semicolon. Not everyone follows that so if user enters [email protected] [email protected] the email is not sent. There can be more than 2 emails.
So is there a way to check that those emails are separated by either comma or semicolon, and if not add it before email is sent?
Thank you

Hi Frank,
I am trying to validate multiple email addresses as well. Currently, my function works for only one email address. Is there a way to extend this function? I am using Oracle 9i.

l_at_pos     NUMBER;
l_str_length NUMBER;
BEGIN
l_dot_pos := instr(p_address, '.');
l_at_pos := instr(p_address, '@');
l_str_length := LENGTH(p_address);
if ((l_dot_pos = 0) OR (l_at_pos = 0) OR (l_dot_pos = l_at_pos + 1) OR
      (l_at_pos = 1) OR (l_at_pos = l_str_length ) OR
      (l_dot_pos = l_str_length)) then
    return 'FAILURE';
end if;
if instr(substr(p_address, l_at_pos), '.') = 0 then
    return 'FAILURE';
end if;
return 'SUCCESS';
END validate_email_format;Thanks
