Simple ques.: how to open new empty editor file in Xcode 4.0?

I use Xcode 4.0 as an editor for stand-alone C++ programs. In earlier versions, I would just open a new empty file (cmd-shift-N, I think; the new file option, which was just cmd-N, gave me something else) and start typing. But in v. 4.0, I haven't found the option to do this. Under File->New, it only offers me the option of new project or new workspace. There is an option for new file, but it's grayed out. So what I have to do now, to get a new empty editor file, is open an existing C++ program in Xcode, delete the contents, and save it under a new name.

Alas, that doesn't work either (I had already tried that). When I click on the Empty Icon I don't get an empty file. Instead, I get a dialog box asking me to create a project. Then when it's finished I get this:
Now, once I've done this, THEN I can do (because it's no longer grayed out) File/New/New File/Other/Empty (so this, at least, now explains why my submenu looked different from K T's: he must already have had a project created, while I had not). But besides having all these unnecessary steps (since I have no interest in creating a project), it still doesn't give me just the simple text editor I used to be able to get; instead I get this more complicated-looking window with what looks like a debugger, which I'm not using:
On the other hand, if I open one of my existing C++ programs in XCode, then I do get just exactly the type of text editor window I used to be able to get just by directly doing cmd-shift-N. So does anyone know how to get to this directly, without creating a project, etc.?:

How to Open new screen for single click on ALV icon.

Hi All,
Can any body help me regarding the below ALV requirement.
I need to create a executable program ZPROGRAM with a table having field to store long text.The ALV report should display records according to the selection screen parameters with a icon in each record when clicked should open a new screen with present data in the field and must be able to save the entered long text.
Can any body give me the idea after displaying the simple ALV in the output,
How to open new screen(not the Pop-ups) after single click on the icon,
in that I should be able to modify & save the long text in my ZTABLE and
able to retrieve the same text for single clicked icon record.

And how retrieve the same text for this record.

How to open new window and generate oracle report from apex

Hi,
I had created an application that generates PDF files using Oracle Reports, following this Guide.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/howto_integrate_oracle_reports.html
And I followed 'Advanced Technique', so that users can't generate PDF file by changing URL and parameters. This is done for security reasons.
But in this tutorial, when 'Go' button is pressed, the PDF file is displayed on the same window of apex application. If so, user might close the window by mistake. In order to avoid this, another window have to be opened.
So, I put this code in the BRANCH - URL Target. (Note that this is not in Optional URL Redirect in the button property, but the branch which is called by the button.)
javascript:popupURL('&REPORTS_URL.quotation&P2100_REP_JOB_ID.')
But if the button is pressed, I get this error.
ERR-1777: Page 2100 provided no page to branch to. Please report this error to your application administrator.
Restart Application
If I put the code 'javascritpt ....' in the Optional URL Redirect, another window opens successfully, but the Process to generate report job is not executed.
Does anyone know how to open new window from the Branch in this case?

G'day Shohei,
Try putting your javascript into your plsql process using the htp.p(); procedure.
For example, something along these lines should do it:
BEGIN
-- Your other process code goes here...
htp.p('<script type="javascript/text">');
htp.p('popupURL("&REPORTS_URL.quotation&P2100_REP_JOB_ID.")');
htp.p('</script>');
END;
What happens is the javascript is browser based whereas your plsql process is server based and so if you put the javascript into your button item Optional URL Redirect it is executed prior to getting to the page plsql process and therefore it will never execute the process. When you have it in your branch which normally follows the processes, control has been handed to the server and the javascript cannot be executed and so your page throws the error "Page 2100 provided no page to branch to"... By "seeding" the plsql process with the embedded javascript in the htp.p() procedure you can achieve the desired result. You could also have it as a separate process also as long as it is sequenced correctly to follow your other process.
HTH
Cheers,
Mike

Doug's got it right. It sounds like you are trying to open a later version file in an earlier version. This will always be handled as opening the PDF portion of the file. Try Googling AI_openMultiPagePDF for a script to open these or Resave from the newer version to the older.

Firefox4 always cannot remember how to open these types of file

When I download certain types of file, for example, .rar file, firefox4 always cannot remember how to open these types of file next time. The check box “automatically use the same method to handle the file” in the download popup window looks grey and cannot be checked. Also, these types never appear in the list of option-application. I check previously installed firefox 3.6, these types are all called (application/***). What’s more, when I want to turn off computer, as long as firefox 4 is opened, it will lose response and prevent Windows from turning off. Whatever I do, reinstalling firefox, deleting profile and even reinstall Windows, I cannot get rid of those issues. I think these are bugs of firefox4. I hope they will be fixed as soon as possible.

Purchase a legal copy of Windows instead of attempting to pirate it. You will then have the installation disks you'll need and won't have to worry about opening Torrent files.

LabVIEW2009: How to replace new Icon Editor with old one?

Colleagues,
I really don't like the new icon editor introduced in LabVIEW 2009:
That was nice attempt to make "embedded Photoshop" with lot of features:
But I really don't like it, because:
- it opened EVERY TIME on the RIGHT monitor (I have three monitors, and primary monitor in the middle)
- it takes lot of time for launch (old icon editor was started momentally)
- from usability point of view - it was wrong to place tools on the right side. Commonly they located on the left side (and only in old icon editor, but also in imageprocessing software like Adobe Photoshop). Also front panel UI design... hmmm... this can be better...
- some bugs or changed functionality (for example - select ROI, then press <Del> button - nothing happened)
etc...
Is it possible to replace it with old one:
Ideal solution will be - simple switch between both editors (some introduced features are not so bad).
Thanks in advance,
Andrey.
Message Edited by Andrey Dmitriev on 01-29-2010 11:00 AM
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Go into <LabVIEW>\Resource\Plugins and rename lv_icon.vi. This is the plugin that's called when you invoke the icon editor, and if it's not there, LV reverts to the built-in editor (at least today. I'm not sure how many versions ahead they will keep the code).
You should note that the editor is open source, so you can go in and change what you want (or save yourself time and use the changes others have made, such as PJM's thread here. You may also want to look at the other discussions in that group).
Try to take over the world!

How to open new webBrowser in java with BrowserLauncher.java

I m using BrowserLauncher.java which opens default webBrowser but i want to open new webBrowser for new request each time.
Plz suggest to me what changes i have to made in this java class.
it is very urgent???
package com.pst.lmsgui.utils;

import java.io.IOException;

* BrowserLauncher is a class that provides one static method, openURL, which opens the default
* web browser for the current user of the system to the given URL. It may support other
* protocols depending on the system -- mailto, ftp, etc. -- but that has not been rigorously
* tested and is not guaranteed to work.
* <p>
* Yes, this is platform-specific code, and yes, it may rely on classes on certain platforms
* that are not part of the standard JDK. What we're trying to do, though, is to take something
* that's frequently desirable but inherently platform-specific -- opening a default browser --
* and allow programmers (you, for example) to do so without worrying about dropping into native
* code or doing anything else similarly evil.
* <p>
* Anyway, this code is completely in Java and will run on all JDK 1.1(or better)-compliant systems without
* modification or a need for additional libraries. All classes that are required on certain
* platforms to allow this to run are dynamically loaded at runtime via reflection and, if not
* found, will not cause this to do anything other than returning an error when opening the
* browser.
* <p>
* There are certain system requirements for this class, as it's running through Runtime.exec(),
* which is Java's way of making a native system call. Currently, this requires that a Macintosh
* have a Finder which supports the GURL event, which is true for Mac OS 8.0 and 8.1 systems that
* have the Internet Scripting AppleScript dictionary installed in the Scripting Additions folder
* in the Extensions folder (which is installed by default as far as I know under Mac OS 8.0 and
* 8.1), and for all Mac OS 8.5 and later systems. On Windows, it only runs under Win32 systems
* (Windows 95, 98, and NT 4.0, as well as later versions of all). On other systems, this drops
* back from the inherently platform-sensitive concept of a default browser and simply attempts
* to launch Netscape via a shell command.
* <p>
* This code is Copyright 1999 by Eric Albert ([email protected]) and may be redistributed
* or modified in any form without restrictions as long as the portion of this comment from this
* paragraph through the end of the comment is not removed. The author requests that he be
* notified of any application, applet, or other binary that makes use of this code, but that's
* more out of curiosity than anything and is not required. This software includes no warranty.

* BrowserLauncher is a class that provides one static method, openURL, which opens the default
* web browser for the current user of the system to the given URL. It may support other
* protocols depending on the system -- mailto, ftp, etc. -- but that has not been rigorously
* tested and is not guaranteed to work.
* Yes, this is platform-specific code, and yes, it may rely on classes on certain platforms
* that are not part of the standard JDK. What we're trying to do, though, is to take something
* that's frequently desirable but inherently platform-specific -- opening a default browser --
* and allow programmers (you, for example) to do so without worrying about dropping into native
* code or doing anything else similarly evil.
* Anyway, this code is completely in Java and will run on all JDK 1.1(or better)-compliant systems without
* modification or a need for additional libraries. All classes that are required on certain
* platforms to allow this to run are dynamically loaded at runtime via reflection and, if not
* found, will not cause this to do anything other than returning an error when opening the
* browser.
* There are certain system requirements for this class, as it's running through Runtime.exec(),
* which is Java's way of making a native system call. Currently, this requires that a Macintosh
* have a Finder which supports the GURL event, which is true for Mac OS 8.0 and 8.1 systems that
* have the Internet Scripting AppleScript dictionary installed in the Scripting Additions folder
* in the Extensions folder (which is installed by default as far as I know under Mac OS 8.0 and
* 8.1), and for all Mac OS 8.5 and later systems. On Windows, it only runs under Win32 systems
* (Windows 95, 98, and NT 4.0, as well as later versions of all). On other systems, this drops
* back from the inherently platform-sensitive concept of a default browser and simply attempts
* to launch Netscape via a shell command.
* This code is Copyright 1999 by Eric Albert ([email protected]) and may be redistributed
* or modified in any form without restrictions as long as the portion of this comment from this
* paragraph through the end of the comment is not removed. The author requests that he be
* notified of any application, applet, or other binary that makes use of this code, but that's
* more out of curiosity than anything and is not required. This software includes no warranty.

How to install new abap editor?

hi to all.
i am new for abap.Can anybody please tell me steps to install new abap editor?
I am using sap gui 710 final release patch level 2.
Thanks.

Hi,
using GUI 7.10 you already got the new editor installed.
All you have to do is to tell the system you want to use it...
While in TA SE38 choose "Utilities" - "Settings" from the menu and check "Front-End Editor (new)". That's it.
Peter
P.S.: Keep in mind that the backend has to be 6.20 or later.

How to create an Empty Playlist File on Mac?

Hello everyone, I'm working on a Music Player script, I was able to play a file via the default player as when we doubleclick on a file. The problem is I have no control over the Player, so to "stop" a file I could play a "silent" mp3, one with 1 second of silence in it for example. I discarded the idea since I had to distribute this silent.mp3 file along with the script. A better option is to play a "playlist", since playlist files are text only, I could create them an empty playlist file on the fly...
so, the question is, what's the default playlist extension on a mac? and how to create one on the Mac?
in windows the default player is Windows Media Player, the default playlist file extension is *.wpl.
here's the contents of an empty playlist
<?wpl version="1.0"?>
<smil>
    <head>
        <meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Windows Media Player -- 12.0.7601.18150"/>
        <meta name="ItemCount" content="0"/>
        <title>empyPlaylist</title>
    </head>
</smil>
here's the script, so far Windows only, at least to stop the file being played.
// script.name = musicPlayer_Windows.jsx;
// script.needs = I need to create an Empty Playlist File for the Mac, that will play on the default music player when executed
// carlos canto, 10/12/2014
var w = new Window('dialog', 'Music Player');
var btnFile = w.add('button', undefined, 'Select an *.mp3 file to play...');
var lblSong = w.add('edittext', undefined, '');
lblSong.characters = 30;
var btnPlay = w.add('button', undefined, 'Play');
var btnStop = w.add('button', undefined, 'Stop');
var btnClose = w.add('button', undefined, 'Close');
btnPlay.enabled = btnStop.enabled = false;
var emptyPlaylist = getEmptyPlaylist ();
btnFile.onClick = function () {
    var file = File.openDialog ("Select File to Play...", '*.mp3', false);
    lblSong.text = file.displayName;
    lblSong.file = file;
    btnPlay.enabled = btnStop.enabled = true;
btnPlay.onClick = function () {
    lblSong.file.execute();
    $.sleep (300);
    BridgeTalk.bringToFront('estoolkit');
btnStop.onClick = function () {
    emptyPlaylist.execute();
    $.sleep (300);
    BridgeTalk.bringToFront('estoolkit');
btnClose.onClick = function () {
    w.close();
w.show();
// this function creates an Empty Playlist file (Windows) on the fly, this file will be used to "stop" a playing file
// I need a similar function for Mac
function getEmptyPlaylist () {
    var desk = Folder.desktop;
    var f = new File(desk+'/emptyPlaylist.wpl');
    if (!f.exists) {
        var s_emptyPlaylist = (new String("<?wpl version=\"1.0\"?>\n<smil>\n    <head>\n        <meta name=\"Generator\" content=\"Microsoft Windows Media Player -- 12.0.7601.18150\"/>\n        <meta name=\"ItemCount\" content=\"0\"/>\n        <title>empyPlaylist</title>\n    </head>\n</smil>\n"));
        f.encoding = 'utf-8';
        f.open('w');
        f.write(eval(s_emptyPlaylist));
        f.close();
    return f;
thanks in advance

hmm...I think it's going to be more complicated than I thought.
correct, this script targets the ESTK, it is part of a larger Illustrator script, which doesn't have doScript either...I would go with applescript as last resort. I think going with the playlist file is easier.
based on your comment I realized users might change their default players, so on Windows I'm going to change the playlist file from *.wpl to the more universal *.m3u, I guess whatever decent player made the default, supports this file.
so, will an *.m3u playlist file play on the default mac player (itunes) when executed?
File("~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Music/emptyPlaylist.m3u").execute(); // will this play on itunes?
I noticed that the *.m3u file can be blank, it will still "play" when executed() and effectively "stops" any music file currently being played...if this happens on Mac also, that's what I'm after.
thanks for helping Dirk.

How to open a specific excel file by activex & overwrite by set_cell_value.vi

I've seen the 'Write Table and Chart to XL.llb', but how can i open an existing excel file/workbook/sheet and rewrite some of the data instead of open a new worksheet everytime? It may already shown in your examples somewhere, but since I'm new to activex/property node stuff, I can't figure it out. Your help is appretiated.
Thanks
Anthony

The process is very similar. Starting with the example, open the diagram and you'll see a VI labled "Open Book" (The name of the VI is actually "Open New Workbook.vi". Right click on it and select Replace/Select a VI...
Now navigate to \\Labview 7.0\examples\comm\excelexamples.llb and select the file "Open Specific Workbook.vi". This VI has an input for specifying a filename to open.
Likewise, the example also calls a VI named "Open a New Worksheet.vi" replace that with "Open a Specific Worksheet.vi" (found in the same place).

How to open iWork 08 blank file without headers?

Hi, couldn't find an answer for my question on the forms, so here it goes...
Is there a way to set Numbers '08 to open new files without Column and Row Headers? I know how to remove and/or delete them, but this is not what I'm looking for. I want to start all new documents without the headers. Is it possible?
Thanks, Vlad.

Hello Vlad,
Whenever you begin a new document, you are opening a Template. Often we use the blank template provided with Numbers, but we are free to make our own templates without Headers and with any settings we find convenient. Prepare a document that is just the way you would always like to begin your work and then File > Save as Template.
When you want to start a new document, File > New from Template > My Templates, choose your special template.
Regards,
Jerry
