[SOLVED] Is there a newbie-friendly method of modifying linux keymaps?

I would like to do two different things:
* Map a keyboard key to a UTF-8 character that I specify.
* Map a keyboard key or combination of keys to a string of UTF-8 characters.

  • User friendly method to post a error document

    Hi Experts,
        I have a requirement. While posting vendor billing in a custom transaction, the posting is not happening because of invalid cost objects. To solve it some alternative cost object must be selected by the custom program and has to post the document. Is there any much user friendly method to do this, apart from doing enhancement either inside the posting custom program to select valid cost objects or designing screen with controls to select valid cost objects and post?
    Thanks in advance!!!

    Hello Raju,
    Its a invoice which the user posts via a MIRO.
    I can do it with a FM also, U r right.
    There have been lots of issues with rounding values when trying to post a parked document in MIRO , till now such invoices were getting posted. Now, we r getting errors, just trying to find if someone else had encountered with a similiar problem and what was the approach they used?
    we get a value of 0.02 difference when trying to post via MIRO for some invoices, till now such invoices were getting posted. Its purely a functional issue though.
    We checked the invoice also, its prefectly fine. There does not seems to any issue, just wondering if there  has been any exchange rate problems etc...
    Thanks,

    My iPad camera photos will wirelessly sync with my iMac and iCLoud photo stream, but the videos do not, is USB connection the only way to transfer videos or is there also a wireless method?

    Videos are not included with the Photo Stream. Photo Stream is for photos only.

    Assuming that you want help and that you aren't just copying-and-pasting that thread's title and posting a link to it, then have you tried the steps on the post that I linked to in my first reply on that thread ?
    If you don't get the 'none' option when trying those instructions then you will need to enter credit card details before you will be able to use the account - when you've entered credit card details you should get the 'none' option and be able to remove your card details.
    Or you can create a new account, and follow, exactly, the steps on this page when creating it' : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

  • Was there a change in method names for ABAP Proxies ???

    Hi all,
    i am wondering if there was a change in the method names when using ABAP proxies.
    In my projects there were always the methods execute_synchronous and execute_asynchronous when generating proxies.
    In a current project i created some ABAP proxies and the method names are not the same any longer. Now the method takes the name of the Message interface. I observed this in Backendsystems NW2004s (Basis 7.0) with SP14 and 15. It seems that it has changed since the sproxy was integrated in SE80.
    Can anybody tell me, how i can use the "old" method names again when generating proxies ?
    Best regards,
    martin

    Actually i guess they did in more SOA way. If u see it says connecting to ESR rather than integration repository.
    Yes. In order to allow several operations for a message interface, the methods of the ABAP proxies get the operation name as method instead of a constant (the Java proxies alwas had this behaviour).
    could u pl highlight what other operations are allowed on message interface rather than sending a message to the XI either in synchronous or asynchronous manner?
    Thanks and Regards

  • Why there are overloaded create methods in Statful bean?

    Hi all,
    I have a question ...!
    Why there are overloaded create methods for Statefule beans? and why not for Stateless bean?
    because any way these create methods are for giving referneces of EJB objects.hence, what is use of overloaded methods in stateful bean?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Rahul

    Hi Rahul,
    Each stateful session bean is tied to a particular client. That means whatever state is passed in during create() is guaranteed
    to be available on subsequent invocations. Allowing multiple create methods is a convenience.
    For stateless session beans there is no prescribed relationship between the caller and which bean instance is used to handle
    an invocation. It wouldn't make sense to allow creation parameters since there would be no guarantee that a subsequent
    invocation is handled by an instance containing that particular initialization state.
    All of this only applies to the EJB 2.1 and earlier API. Starting in EJB 3.0, there are no longer explicit create() methods.
    As you've seen there isn't any benefit to having them in the stateless case. For stateful session beans in EJB 3.0, the
    developer can perform initialization by just declaring a particular business method and calling that after first acquiring a
    new stateful session bean reference.

  • If there are two synchronized methods in one class.

    If there are two synchronized methods in one class then what will be the beheviour of the threads accessing the methods.

    Synchronization is on objects, not methods or classes. A thread, entering a synchronized method, synchronizes on the object on which that method is called. Another thread, attempting to synchronize on that object, will be made to wait until the first thread releases it.

  • EXS/LP8 newbie - Best method to load an AIFF/AppleLoops drumbeat into EXS?

    Hi All ---
    --- I've got a great sounding drumbeat going on. problem is, i played it.
    I've found a few bars that almost work as a loop, but uhh....you know.
    as I dont have Recycle or Reason for OSX, I've made an eight-bar Apple Loop with 1/32 transient cuts in the Apple Loops Utility to hopefully load into the EXS. but this is where i come unstuck - is it actually possible to load apple loops into the EXS? i'm also wondering if there is a better method to execute the whole process.
    have been looking through the forums and i'm seaching the manual now --- but any quick tips would be greatly appreciated ----
    ...mega thnx in adv. for any help
    Cheers,
    J.

    You can import .rex files into the EXS, and of course turn them into Apple loops.
    I don't think there is a way to directly import Apple loops into the EXS unless you have Recycle.
    They will probably import as normal audio files, though I haven't tried it to see what actually happens.
    OTOH, the fact that there are those green, midi based apple loops would lead one to believe it can be done. It's never been clear to me whether an end user can make those.

  • Is there a mobile-friendly version of this website?

    This community forum is really hard to use on an iPhone 6 or any similar sized screen as:
    1). The font is tiny, so you have to zoom right in on the page to read anything, and then scroll around.
    2). Something odd happens with the predictive text in the WYSIWYG form for creating or editing posts whereby the suggestions don't detect the space betwee the word you're typing and the preceeding word.  Additionally, it frequently decides a word should begin with a capital letter, when there's no preceding full stop (period).
    Is there a mobil-friendly version of the site I can use?

    One would be very helpful (or even an app for that matter) I have iPod 5 and I have the same problem as you do. Text is way to small, the "Double letter" glitch, etc.

  • IS THERE ANY FUNCTION OR METHOD TO KNOW CURRENT OPERATIN SYS

    Hi,
    is there any function or method to know current operating system where peoplecode is runnig or any system variable
    thanks,
    Amit

    CTRL + J displays the operating system.
    In terms of the code that does this, as discussed in this article:
    http://www.peoplesoftwiki.com/limit-control-j-information
    You can look at the PT_INFOPAGECONNECT HTML definition which uses the system variable %BrowserPlatform to show this information.
    According to PeopleBooks, this system variable resolves to:
    At runtime %BrowserPlatform is replaced with the operating system name as specified by the browser loading the current page.

    Stuff means anything that can be printed, so it is not about creating pdf's or something similar. Just to watch and edit what you want to print before you actually print it to paper, and that independent of the program  you are using.
