_SMSTSCurrentActionName place the TS step name into another variable when fails

Hello,
Testing a Task Sequence that detects step error and generates a VB script which echos failure or success. Want to capture the _SMSTSCurrentActionName when it fails and places into a user defined variable that can be called an displayed in the
vbscript. Any thoughts?
Thanks

To do this, you'd have to be able to capture the value of the variable on the task that failed but since your error catching code happens in another task, you'd actually have to be able grab the value for a different step which isn't possible. It sounds
like it could be of value though just not possible with the task sequence engine today. You should file a design change request on connect.

Using a variables value as the name of another variable

Hi, i'm new to java and i've been trying to write a little program. I was wondering whether it is possible to use the value of a variable as the name of another variable.
This is what i have so far: When i run my java program numerous Animal objects are created with names like ani01, ani02, ani03. These objects have functions like getName() etc. When i type in one of these codes into the command line it gets stored in a variable called 'input'. Everything's fine up to here.
But i need a way to access the correct Animal from my input. instead of doing countless switch statements on the input.
If i type "ani02" i want it to return the animals name by calling ani02.getName()...
how do i do this? i'd appreciate any help. thanks.

If you were doing this based on user input, then you
wouldn't have to do a lot of typing. Mmm?I'm sorry i don't get your meaning... ? I am doing this based on user input am i not?
All i want to do is access the correct Animal object depending on the user's input... so if they type in ani01 it would return 'Elephant' (or whatever) using ani01.getName().
Maybe i'm going about this the wrong way or something?.. I have about 30 animals. they each have a name, continent, quantity. I have an Animal class that has functions like getName(), setName() etc. When the program starts, 30 objects are created
Animal ani01 = new Animal("Elephant",3000,"India");
Animal ani02 = new Animal("Panda",200,"China");etc...
I want to be able to get information about any one of these animals by typing something at the command line...
so i type in something (i just thought the name of the object would be the best thing to type in) and i get the info about elephants (or whatever) from the relevant object.
how would you do this?

Question about the chain step name in DEFINE_CHAIN_STEP

I have questions about the chain step name in DEFINE_CHAIN_STEP:
1. Can the step name be a number (e.g. "8")?
2. Should the step name be unique within a chain or across all chains?
I am having this exception:
ORA-25448: rule DMUSER.RULE_6_3707 has errors
ORA-22806: not an object or REF
After I changed the step names (in DEFINE_CHAIN_STEP), the chain seems to run fine.
Thanks,
Denny

The reason I asked about the step name is to confirm it can handle numbers (it looks it can handle it from the doc).
Why I changed the step names say from "11" to "21", the error goes away, that puzzled me. Because the way I defined steps and the rules for the steps were exactly the same. Just changing the step names made the error goes away?!
Thanks.

Premier After Effects... How does one places the whole movie clip into AF?

After years of using Premiere, I’m looking at using After Effects. Premiere does most of what I need (I don’t need moving graphics and titles) but the masking and rotoscoping seems to be better in After Effects. I’ve started a great video by Tom Green at school. This is probably silly question- I don’t understand is how does one places the whole movie clip into AF? I only see 30 seconds or so of the 5 minute clip on the timeline in AF.

Ahh, thanks. I simply add more minutes (the length of the clip) into the "new composition".
A new problem: When I try a dynamic link with premiere AE says “Failed to connect to adobe Premiere Pro Dynamic Link”, but PP will link with AE. I just installed AF last week. Do I need to uninstall and reinstall them (along with the rest of the Creative Suite)?

My phone keeps resetting and then shows the icon to plug into itunes but when i do itunes tells me that it can't connect to my phone because it has a passcode and wants me to unlock it to connect. My phone only gives me the option to make emergency calls.

My phone started resetting today over and over and then shows the icon to plug into itunes. When I tried plugging in, a message pops up saying that itunes can't connect because my phone has a passcode and i need to unlock it to connect. my phone won't let me do anything more than make an emergency call. it wont give me the option to enter my passcode to unlock the phone. What can I do?

After a visit to the apple store, they were able to get through my pass code but unfortunately I found out that is was a problem with the logic board. Since Apple only wants to sell and not fix, I was able to locate an iphone repair near me that deals with logic boards and they are currently working on it right now. i should be getting it back soon. Im not sure if the problem you are experiencing is the same as i went through but it does sound like it may be also a hardware issue and would suggest searching online for an iphone repair place that can diagnose what exactly is wrong. Hope this helps.

Hello, I have created a distribution kit for my program.The problem is that the when the program is installed onto another computer, it fails to communicate with field point (Using FP-AO-200 and FP-AO-1000). Help is greatly appreciated, Thanks faen9901

Hi Everyone,
I have a program that sends information(analog output) to lab windows cvi in the form of a text file or user input.
The program runs on the computers that I have the field point explorer and lab windows cvi installed on. In order to run the program without always installing labwindows/cvi and field point; I wanted to create an executable file that could be load on another computer.
I used the create distribution kit part of labwindows/cvi to do this.After creating the distribution kit, I then installed it
to another computer.
My user interface appears on the screen, when the user clicks on the exe. file, but no data is sent to the field point module. I know that the data is being read from the user and textfile because in it appears in the uir.
The following are some details about the problem:
1. On another computer without labwindows/cvi and field point explorer not installed - no data is sent to field point module
I know this because a current is being read on the current meter connected to field point module.
My questions are the following:
1. What are the possible reasons for the data not being sent to the field point module?
2. Do I still need to create an iak. (Installing Field point Explorer) file stored on any new computer that I install my created distribution kit file too?
Thankyou very much for any help that you can provide. I greatly appreciate it.

1) If you do not install FieldPoint Explorer, the FieldPoint Server is not installed so there is nothing on the target computer that knows how to talk to the FieldPoint system.
2) Yes, you need an IAK file on the target computer. Assuming the settings (i.e. com port#) are identical you can simply include the iak file as part of the distribution.
3) You also need to include as part of your installer the file "fplwmgr.dll". If this file is not installed, your program will not be able to access the FieldPoint Server. Alternatively, this file is installed automatically if FieldPoint Explorer detects LabWindows/CVI or Measurement Studio Development versions on the target computer or if you choose to do a custom FieldPoint Explorer installation and
choose to provide LabWindows/CVI support.

Function Module to update the file path/name into Infopackage

Hi Experts,
I have some flat files which will be loaded to the directly daily. My requirement is to update the file name into the infopackage dynamically. Please suggest any function module or program for it.
Thanks,
Kittu

In Higher versions, we can use the below code:
call method CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>ENVIRONMENT_GET_VARIABLE
    exporting
      VARIABLE   = 'TEMP'
    importing
      VALUE      = LV_TMP
    exceptions
      CNTL_ERROR = 1
      others     = 2.
if SY-SUBRC <> 0.
    message id SY-MSGID type SY-MSGTY number SY-MSGNO
    with SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
endif.
call method CL_GUI_CFW=>FLUSH
    exceptions
      CNTL_SYSTEM_ERROR = 1
      CNTL_ERROR        = 2
      others            = 3.
if SY-SUBRC <> 0.
Error handling
endif.
concatenate lv_tmp '\' into folder_path.
But need to know in the lower versions like 3.1h and 4.0,

What property is the current step name in MainSequence (client sequence) stored in to access in a process model?

I'm trying to get the name of the current step that is about to be run in the MainSequence from a Process Model. This will be accessed in a "ProcessModelPreStep" callback. Thanks!

Hi
(TestStand 2.0.1f1)
I have a attached an example ProcessModelPreStep callback to get that step name. I use the NameOf ( Parameters.Step).
I hope this is what you are after.

Passing function name into another function?

Hi
I have a movieclip prototype thats scales and moves any
movieclips depending
on the parameters passed in. I want to be able to pass in a
function name
that is executed when the main function has finished. The
problem is the
line of code that calls the main function executes the
function name that I
m trying to pass in as a parameter. Is there something I m
missing?
see my code below:
"mcMainAnimation.moveFadeTransform(0, mcMainAnimation._y,
-100,
mcMainAnimation._xscale, -30, 50,moveToX());"
MovieClip.prototype.moveFadeTransform = function(t, oldY,
diffY, oldScale,
newScale, tTime, funcToCall) {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
t++;
if (t<=tTime) {
this._y = easeIn(t, oldY, diffY, tTime);
this._xscale = easeIn(t, oldScale, newScale, tTime);
this._yscale = easeIn(t, oldScale, newScale, tTime);
} else {
t = 0;
funcToCall;
this.onEnterFrame = null;
moveToX = function () {
trace("called");
Thank in advance
Shaun

Hi!
Try to modify code to:
mcMainAnimation.moveFadeTransform(0, mcMainAnimation._y,
-100,
mcMainAnimation._xscale, -30, 50,moveToX);"
... so don't use () at end of function. That should do the
trick.
Also, you need to add the () to funcToCall, so that instead
of:
t = 0;
funcToCall;
this.onEnterFrame = null;
you should have
t = 0;
funcToCall();
this.onEnterFrame = null;

How can I paste the full path name into the find file dialog?

I've copied a full path name using CMD-C.
Now I click on a link in some web page (does not matter which one) which lets me upload a file.
The standard apple file selector dialog pops up (sorry don't know the official apple name for this dialog), to let me navigate and select the file.
How can I paste the file name? Or how can I tell the dialog popup to navigate to the file whose full path name is in the clipboard?

Here is an image showing the file browser dialog I'm referring to.

Linux file name into ODI variable

Hello All,
I have a situation where we have files in one directory in linux ,I want to import the file name into a ODI variable.
Ex : A_B_C_2014_01_20.zip (inside this zip file are the flat files with data) is the file name in /u02/source_files location , i want this into a ODI variable and once the data loading is complete ,i want to log it saying
A_B_C_2014_01_20.zip complete
A_B_C_2014_01_21.zip complete.
So my other shell script will look for the complete flag and copy the next file into the ODI pick up location.In this case I need to pick up A_B_C_2014_01_22.zip and start the data loading.
How do i implement this functionality in ODI. Please let me know.

Issue was due to a syntax error. Case closed.
Thanks!

Is there a way to import only the Address Bookfrom OE into TB? When I started to import my full data, I clicked Cancel, TB crashed, & my Address Book vanished.

Hi, I am in the process of migrating from Outlook Express 6 to Thunderbird. Thunderbird made the migration very easy, a click of an "Outlook Express" radio box selection for import. But then I made it hard on myself by deciding I wanted to fix an OE .dbx folder-file (make it importable, previously not imported likely because it was marked "read only" and then re-import. I started to re-import OE into TB but then got nervous when I saw everything was importing, not a single dbx folder-file I wanted to fix. I clicked "Cancel" in TB, and then, when I later opened TB, noticed that my Address Book now is empty. It was definitely full before. Any ideas how to import strictly my contacts again? I am thinking of importing my entire OE data again if the answer to that post is that the re-import will not result in double OE line items. If I re-import all of OE, my Address Book should reappear, too, right?

Oops, I found the answer to my question. Great knowledge base! I had originally imported via the automatic popup dialog box that appeared when I installed TB, and didn't absorb at the time that there would be a way to do an import later, after TB install, too, and even for specific parts of OE (address book vs. mail messages, etc.).
I pasted the link to the "Migrate to Thunderbird" page that includes how to migrate just an Address Book from OE, but the following is all that pastes in: 9723729938
I have typed out the link here:

Put variable into another variable

Hi All~
I am writing the following script:
Add-Type -Path 'C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL\Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo\11.0.0.0__89845dcd8080cc91\Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo.dll'
get-content 'C:\SLDATA\Serverlist.txt' | foreach-object {
#write-output `n
###write "Server Name: $_"
$SrvConn = new-object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Common.ServerConnection
$SrvConn.ServerInstance=$_
#Use Integrated Authentication
$SrvConn.LoginSecure = $true
$SrvConn.ConnectTimeout = 1
$srv = new-object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.SMO.Server($SrvConn)
$dbs += $srv.Databases
$dbs | select name,onwer,size | Sort-object size
clear-variable -Name dbs
Then the output will be :
Name               Owner              size
master             sa                     1024
master             sa                     2048
tempdb             sa                    5000
tempdb            sa                     6000
if I want to add a output column of the server name like the following
Servername     Name        Owner     Size
Server1            master       sa           1024
Server2            master        sa         2048
Server1             master       sa         5000
Server2            master        sa           6000
how to re-write the script

Try this:
Add-Type -Path 'C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL\Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo\11.0.0.0__89845dcd8080cc91\Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo.dll'
$Servers = get-content 'C:\SLDATA\Serverlist.txt'
foreach ($server in $servers) {
#write-output `n
###write "Server Name: $_"
$SrvConn = new-object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Common.ServerConnection
$SrvConn.ServerInstance=$_
#Use Integrated Authentication
$SrvConn.LoginSecure = $true
$SrvConn.ConnectTimeout = 1
$srv = (new-object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.SMO.Server($SrvConn)).Databases
$srv | Add-Member -type NoteProperty "Servername" $server
$dbs += $srv
$dbs | select servername,name,owner,size | Sort-object size
clear-variable -Name dbs
Assigning the get-content to a variable allows you to use the foreach ($server in $servers) so the server name is available at the end of the pipeline.
Assigning the .databases element to $srv instead of the whole object allows you to add the server property.
Hope this helps! I don't have a SQL instance to test...
