Some things regarding mingw32-gcc package.

Hi, I'm looking at the mingw32-gcc PKGBUILD as I usually build those packages to match my CPU capabilities instead of a i486 oriented ones and I've noticed some odd things.
1. What's supposed to do this line? I've not seen any source by that name:
[ $NOEXTRACT -eq 1 ] || tar xjf gcc-$pkgver.tar.bz2
2. The configure command first enables shared libraries and then disables them (I guess configure uses the latter because it's placed in the end).
3. The cleanup command could delete the share directory directly (instead of deleting 2 things inside it), in the end it's empty (after building the package I mean).
And I have 2 questions too, I want to enable Fortran as well as C and C++, what do I have to do to accomplish that? In previous versions I only added "fortran" to the languages enabled, but in this one there is a line for libgcc and another one for libstdc++-v3 after make it globally. Do I have to do something like that for libgfortran?
And my other question is regarding the build process. Right now I perform several builds for the whole MinGW32 suite as there are cyclic dependencies, to do so I have to use some previous versions, is that the right thing to do?
Thank you very much.

fixed in trunk

let it be, may be in future versions developers put something usefull into share/

I think you can look into core/gcc package.

I think it is ok.

    I want to reinstall CS4 as it has been doing some strange things regarding printing, etc. However, when I did this before, it created a major problem and I ended up buying a new computer because no one could figure out why it kept hanging up during the installation. Hours on the phone, no results. I'm scared to do it on this computer. Should I try? Not even the Adobe support could get it resolved. I believe it was somehow reading a product number that could not be deleted or something, and nothing worked.

    Hello, as an addition:
    In your case I would download a really new trial version of your program(s) in question and change it/them into a "real" version later, BUT because you said, that you "re-installed" already, so it will become a little bit more complicated. It would be necessary that you have to use "Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool" as Keith wrote.
    Here an advice for that (The order varies depending on your individual needs. Please read all my proposals first, so you can better choose the first step:)
    1. Maybe you have to activate/deactivate, so please have a look there:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-deactivation-products.html
    2. Sometimes, we know in the meantime, the "opm.db file" is the culprit. In this case you should delete it.
    3. Be careful with (de)installing aso. by (de)installing by your own resources. As much as I regret it and as strange as it may seem I fear it's a challenge for Adobe's Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. Sometimes - for whatever reasons - CC doesn't "want" to work. In this case you should CC completely delete and reinstall by help of Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. (A try to uninstall by own resources is not enough!)
    I quote: Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool helps resolve installation problems for Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite (CS3-CS6) applications. The tool removes installation records for prerelease installations of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications. It does not affect existing installations of previous versions of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications.
    Please use: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html   and follow the prescribed sequence of operations
    4. If necessary and for further questions click through http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html and if "open" please use the chat, I for may part - as it seems unlike you - had the best experiences.

  • I have some questions regarding setting up a software RAID 0 on a Mac Pro

    I have some questions regarding setting up a software RAID 0 on a Mac pro (early 2009).
    These questions might seem stupid to many of you, but, as my last, in fact my one and only, computer before the Mac Pro was a IICX/4/80 running System 7.5, I am a complete novice regarding this particular matter.
    A few days ago I installed a WD3000HLFS VelociRaptor 300GB in bay 1, and moved the original 640GB HD to bay 2. I now have 2 bootable internal drives, and currently I am using the VR300 as my startup disk. Instead of cloning from the original drive, I have reinstalled the Mac OS, and all my applications & software onto the VR300. Everything is backed up onto a WD SE II 2TB external drive, using Time Machine. The original 640GB has an eDrive partition, which was created some time ago using TechTool Pro 5.
    The system will be used primarily for photo editing, digital imaging, and to produce colour prints up to A2 size. Some of the image files, from scanned imports of film negatives & transparencies, will be 40MB or larger. Next year I hope to buy a high resolution full frame digital SLR, which will also generate large files.
    Currently I am using Apple's bundled iPhoto, Aperture 2, Photoshop Elements 8, Silverfast Ai, ColorMunki Photo, EZcolor and other applications/software. I will also be using Photoshop CS5, when it becomes available, and I will probably change over to Lightroom 3, which is currently in Beta, because I have had problems with Aperture, which, until recent upgrades (HD, RAM & graphics card) to my system, would not even load images for print. All I had was a blank preview page, and a constant, frozen "loading" message - the symbol underneath remained static, instead of revolving!
    It is now possible to print images from within Aperture 2, but I am not happy with the colour fidelity, whereas it is possible to produce excellent, natural colour prints using its "minnow" sibling, iPhoto!
    My intention is to buy another 3 VR300s to form a 4 drive Raid 0 array for optimum performance, and to store the original 640GB drive as an emergency bootable back-up. I would have ordered the additional VR300s already, but for the fact that there appears to have been a run on them, and currently they are out of stock at all, but the more expensive, UK resellers.
    I should be most grateful to receive advice regarding the following questions:
    QUESTION 1:
    I have had a look at the RAID setting up facility in Disk Utility and it states: "To create a RAID set, drag disks or partitions into the list below".
    If I install another 3 VR300s, can I drag all 4 of them into the "list below" box, without any risk of losing everything I have already installed on the existing VR300?
    Or would I have to reinstall the OS, applications and software again?
    I mention this, because one of the applications, Personal accountz, has a label on its CD wallet stating that the Licence Key can only be used once, and I have already used it when I installed it on the existing VR300.
    QUESTION 2:
    I understand that the failure of just one drive will result in all the data in a Raid 0 array being lost.
    Does this mean that I would not be able to boot up from the 4 drive array in that scenario?
    Even so, it would be worth the risk to gain the optimum performance provide by Raid 0 over the other RAID setup options, and, in addition to the SE II, I will probably back up all my image files onto a portable drive as an additional precaution.
    QUESTION 3:
    Is it possible to create an eDrive partition, using TechTool Pro 5, on the VR300 in bay !?
    Or would this not be of any use anyway, in the event of a single drive failure?
    QUESTION 4:
    Would there be a significant increase in performance using a 4 x VR300 drive RAID 0 array, compared to only 2 or 3 drives?
    QUESTION 5:
    If I used a 3 x VR300 RAID 0 array, and installed either a cloned VR300 or the original 640GB HD in bay 4, and I left the Startup Disk in System Preferences unlocked, would the system boot up automatically from the 4th. drive in the event of a single drive failure in the 3 drive RAID 0 array which had been selected for startup?
    Apologies if these seem stupid questions, but I am trying to determine the best option without foregoing optimum performance.

    Well said.
    Steps to set up RAID
    Setting up a RAID array in Mac OS X is part of the installation process. This procedure assumes that you have already installed Mac OS 10.1 and the hard drive subsystem (two hard drives and a PCI controller card, for example) that RAID will be implemented on. Follow these steps:
    1. Open Disk Utility (/Applications/Utilities).
    2. When the disks appear in the pane on the left, select the disks you wish to be in the array and drag them to the disk panel.
    3. Choose Stripe or Mirror from the RAID Scheme pop-up menu.
    4. Name the RAID set.
    5. Choose a volume format. The size of the array will be automatically determined based on what you selected.
    6. Click Create.
    Recovering from a hard drive failure on a mirrored array
    1. Open Disk Utility in (/Applications/Utilities).
    2. Click the RAID tab. If an issue has occurred, a dialog box will appear that describes it.
    3. If an issue with the disk is indicated, click Rebuild.
    4. If Rebuild does not work, shut down the computer and replace the damaged hard disk.
    5. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
    6. Drag the icon of the new disk on top of that of the removed disk.
    7. Click Rebuild.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2559
    Drive A + B = VOLUME ONE
    Drive C + D = VOLUME TWO
    What you put on those volumes is of course up to you and easy to do.
    A system really only needs to be backed up "as needed" like before you add or update or install anything.
    /Users can be backed up hourly, daily, weekly schedule
    Media files as needed.
    Things that hurt performance:
    Page outs
    Spotlight - disable this for boot drive and 'scratch'
    SCRATCH: Temporary space; erased between projects and steps.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/StandardRAIDlevels
    (normally I'd link to Wikipedia but I can't load right now)
    Disk drives are the slowest component, so tackling that has always made sense. Easy way to make a difference. More RAM only if it will be of value and used. Same with more/faster processors, or graphic card.

  • Master-Detail Form - implementing some thing like Post-Query trigger

    Hi all,
    I am struggling to implement an eqivalent of a post-query trigger in Oracle Forms. Please bear with me as I am trying to explain in detail what the problem is.
    Here is my situation.
    I have three tables EMP, DEPT and LOCATION. I created a Master/Table pages on EMP and DEPT.
    Basic relationships.
    Each LOCATION has one or more DEPTs; Each DEPT is at one and only one LOCATION.
    Each DEPT has one ore more EMPs; Each EMP is assigned to only and only DEPT.
    Not getting too complicated, here are the table layouts:
    LOCATION:
    ID number(10,0) not null,
    NAME varchar2(20) not null
    DEPT
    ID number(10,0) not null,
    NAME varchar2(20) not null,
    LOC_ID number (10,0) not null foreign key from LOCATION
    EMP
    ID number(10,0) not null,
    NAME varchar2(20) not null,
    DEPT_ID number (10,0) not null foreign key from DEPT
    Assume I have all the constraints, BIU triggers, sequences defined properly.
    I am using the APEX page wizard to create a Master/Detail Form on DEPT and EMP. The first page is the Master Report on DEPT. I want to display the Location Name on this page also. Because the Master Report allows
    you to change the query, I was able to add the Location Name as part of the
    query. This was very simple.
    Select a.name "Department_Name",
    b.name "Location"
    from dept a, location b
    where a.loc_id = b.id
    Moving on, In the Master Detail Form, I would like to get the Location Name as part of the first Region (Dept Region).
    In this region, I would like to include the Location Name also. So my first region on the Master Detail form includes:
    Dept Id: ________
    Dept Name: _______
    Location Name: __________
    As Region are automatically populated using using a Fetch Row from EMP table (Automated Row Fetch) on an After Header process point, I don't have a way of including the Location as part of query. So I created a Region level Item called Location Name, made it Display only.
    In the old SQL*Forms, or Oracle Forms days, I used to use a Post-Query trigger, or Post-Change trigger to fire on the Loc_Id column to populate the Location Name. Simple fetch like:
    Select name
    into :P80_location_name
    from location
    where loc_id = :P80_loc_id
    However, I am struggling to implement some thing simple like this in APEX. Tried creating a processes, computatations etc, but nothing is working.
    I have seen some previous responses to fetching values from a foreign table
    using a button or AJAX script, but this should be very basic. What am I
    missing here?
    Appreciate any insights.
    Thanks.
    John

    Hi John,
    I'm not too familiar with the post-query triggers in Oracle Forms, but the use of a List of Values (LOV) on your LOCATION table might do the trick for you. If you create a dynamic LOV based on your LOCATIONS table, it can then be referenced by the LOC_ID item on the Master-Detail page, to display the Location Name. You could try doing the following:
    1. Create a new dynamic LOV, LOCATIONS, using a query similar to the following:
    select Name d, ID r
    from LOCATION
    order by 1
    2. Edit the "Create" button on the Master report page, and in the "Optional URL Redirect" section set "Request" to CREATE. Click Apply Changes, to save the setting.
    3. Edit the LOC_ID item on your Master-Detail page, and set the following:
    * in the "Name" region change the "Display As" setting to Select List
    * in the "Label" region change the Label to Location Name.
    * in the "List of Values" region set the "Named LOV" to LOCATIONS
    * in the "Read Only" section, set the condition to Request != Expression 1, and set Expression 1 to CREATE.
    Click Apply Changes to save the settings.
    When you run the pages now, the Location Name field will appear as Read-Only when editing a selected Master row. The item will appear as a Select List when the user clicks "Create" on the Master page, to create a new Master row.
    I hope this helps.
    Regards,
    Hilary

  • A proposal - moving some things out of mx.rpc into mx.async?

    Hey guys,
    Just want to get your thoughts rather than jump in and filing a feature request. What do you think about moving a few things that aren't necessarily RPC out of mx.rpc and into a new package (for example mx.async) and removing some of the service-related assumptions? A couple of candidates for this in my mind would be:
    AsyncToken - I use this for all sorts of Async stuff, which is usually waiting on a service, but not always.
    IResponder - This is useful for things such as command chains, and listening in to user actions, and the like. I would also like to see IResponder.applyFault() and IResponder.applyResult() be taken out of mx_internal (and their parameters changed from event types to something else, perhaps Object for result, and Fault for fault).
    And the various impls of IResponder as well :)
    Just an idea that's been bouncing around my head, thought I'd throw it out there and see what you guys think - worth filing a feature request?

    Nice, well while you're in there, any chance we can get FaultEvent from send() dispatching on next frame like a normal event (and on the AsyncToken as well as the WebServie)? I've got some *ugly* workaround code because the fault is dispatched (and handlers invoked) before send() returns, and you can't listen to invocation faults on the AsyncToken like normal events:
                //This code is to catch invocation problems, since Flash has decided to interrupt the flow of the VM for
                //FaultEvent rather than dispatch it on next frame from the token
                operation.addEventListener(FaultEvent.FAULT, invocationFaultHandler);
                //Send the request
                log.debug("Sending request...");
                token = operation.send();
                log.debug("...Send attempt completed");
                //Remove our invocation fault listener
                operation.removeEventListener(FaultEvent.FAULT, invocationFaultHandler);
                //Do we need to send this info on to the token's listeners in a frame or two?
                if (invocationFaultEvent) //Instance-level global
                    log.debug("There was an invoke error, which means the token listeners aren't notified. Will redispatch to them in 250ms");
                    //When we create the timer, we're using a hard listener reference because this helper instance may otherwise be collected before we're done!
                    //So make sure to remove the handler (and kill the timer) on firing!
                    timer = new Timer(250, 1);
                    timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, reDispatchInvocationFault);
                    timer.start();
                return token;
    Cheers,

    I'm not sure the changes are in Iresponder as much as in a new impl class, but we're looking at making the service classes accept an Iresponder as the last arg to send(...) (where we'd look at the last arg and if it's a responder pull it off).  This can make some of the declarative stuff that we're looking at a little easier.  So any APIs we do would just be to assist in the wiring up of all this stuff.
    Not sure when we'll have a writeup for it, a lot of it is do to features in the IDE and we're not sharing those yet :-)  But I'm hoping that I can get that team to provide a writeup in a few days.  Admittedly, the changes we're making are for RPC, not for independence from it, so we'd have to see if it makes sense to do both.

    Don't really care about the package name thing, mainly just about changing some of the things that make them less useful when you not actually using mx.rpc.*
    What can you tell us about the changes to IResponder coming in Gumbo? I know the UM extensions to Cairngorm use it for callbacks on generated events. I use it for the same purpose, and also as part of an implemtation of command chains, where each invocation takes a context and an IResponder, and it's up to the impl to call Result or Fault.

    So it probably would have been better if we had created mx.async or used utils for these before, but I don't know that repackaging is a great idea at this point since it will make migrating code forward harder.
    The applyFault/Result stuff may be reasonable, we're actually looking at some work in Iresponder as part of Flex 4 (more of another impl that we'll provide) so we can see as we do it.  Do other people use these classes and want these kinds of adjustments?

  • Oracle Analyzer or Some thing else ?(for performance & tunning)

    Hi
    Any body have idea about the tool Oracle Analyzer for performanace & tuning,i heard about this but i couldn't find any sort of documentation on this tool any where.Did this change
    from Oracle Analyzer to Some thing else?.
    Please help in this regard
    Thanks
    Sreeni

    dear sreenivasa kanneganti,
    this is the script to analyze the table and compute statistics
    cheers
    ANALYZE TABLE USER_NAME.TABLE_NAME COMPUTE STATISTICS
    from what I know statistics are used by the Oracle Optimizer
    (if it is set in CHOOSE mode, it is written in the init.ora)
    which stores these statistics in a dictionary of data
    If you want to check the integrity of data you have to use the clause VALIDATE_STRUCTURE
    Of course you have to have the grant to ANALIZE_ANY
    Remember to run the ANALYZE and COMPUTE STATISTICS at the end of
    the day, this because it takes a long time to run... ;-)
    If you want to ANALIZE a complete schema you should use the
    procedure DBMS_UTILITY.ANALIZE_SCHEMA

  • Can i know some thing about unicode errors

    can i know some thing about unicode errors

    Hi,
    UCCCHECK is to check if all your programs are UNICODE compatiable.
    Now UNICODE means
    Unicode - Overview
    Before release 6.10, SAP supported different codes for representing characters of different fonts, for example ASCII, EBCDIC as single-byte code pages or double-bytecode pages:
    ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) encodes every character with one byte. This means that a maximum of 256 characters can be displayed (strictly speaking, standard ASCII only encodes one character using 7 bit and can therefore only represent 128 characters. The extension to 8 bit is introduced with ISO-8859). Examples of common code pages are ISO-8859-1 for Western European, or ISO-8859-5 for Cyrillic fonts.
    EBCDIC (Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange) also encodes each character using one byte, and can therefore also represent 256 characters. For example,EBCDIC 0697/0500 is an IBM format that has been used on the AS400 platform for Western European fonts.
    Double byte code pages require between 1 and 2 bytes per character. This enables the representation of 65,536 characters, of which only 10,000 to 15,000 characters are normally used. For example, the code page SJIS is used for Japanese and BIG5 for traditional Chinese fonts.
    Using these character sets, all languages can be handled individually in one ABAP-based SAP system. Difficulties arise if texts from different incompatible character sets are mixed in one central system. The exchange of data between systems with incompatible character sets can also lead to problems.
    The solution to this problem is the use of a character set that includes all characters at once. This is realized by Unicode Unicode (ISO/IEC 10646) . A variety of Unicode character representations is possible for the Unicode character set, for example UTF, in which a character can occupy between one and four bytes.
    From release 6.10, the SAP NetWeaver Application Server supports both Unicode and non-Unicode systems. Non-Unicode systems are conventional ABAP systems, in which one character is usually represented by one byte. Unicode systems are ABAP systems that are based on a Unicode character set and which have a corresponding underlying operating system, including a database.
    Before release 6.10, many ABAP programming methods were based on the fact that one character corresponds to one byte. Before a system is converted to Unicode, ABAP programs must therefore be modified at all points where an explicit or implicit assumption is made about the internal length of a character.
    ABAP supports this conversion using new syntax rules and new language constructs, whereby emphasis was placed on retaining as much of the existing source code as possible. As a preparation for the conversion to Unicode - but also independently of whether a system will actually be converted to Unicode - the checkbox Unicode checks active can be selected in the program properties. The transaction UCCHECK supports the activation of this check for existing programs. If this property is set, the program is identified as a Unicode program. In a Unicode program, an additional stricter syntax check is performed than in non-Unicode programs. In some cases, statements must also be enhanced by using new additions. A syntactically correct Unicode program will normally run with the same semantics and the same results in Unicode and non-Unicode systems. (Exceptions to this rule are low-level programs that query and evaluate the number of bytes per character). Programs that are required to run in both systems should therefore also be tested on both platforms.
    In a Unicode system, only Unicode programs can be executed. Before converting to a Unicode system, the profile parameter abap/unicode_check should be set to "ON" so that only the execution of Unicode programs is permitted. Non-Unicode programs can only be executed in non-Unicode systems. All language constructs that have been introduced for Unicode programs can, however, also be used in non-Unicode programs.
    It has been established that existing programs that have been programmed with no errors mostly fulfill the new Unicode rules and therefore require very little modification. Conversely, most programs that require significant changes are due to an error-prone and therefore questionable programming style. Even if you are not planning a conversion to a Unicode system, Unicode programs are preferable because they are more easily maintained and less prone to errors. Just as outdated and dangerous language constructs are declared obsolete and are no longer permitted for use in ABAP Objects, the rules for Unicode programs also offer increased security when programming, for example when working with character fields and mixed structures. This applies particularly for the storage of external data (for example using the file interface), which has been completely reviewed for use in Unicode programs. When creating a new program, SAP therefore recommends that you always identify the program as a Unicode program, and older programs can be converted to Unicode in stages.

    Thanks for that 'sberman' - because my iPhone is backed-up to my work computer (only at this stage) I have had to call our IT Department in Adleaide. (4 times this morning). The last guy managed to get the phone into 'DFU Mode' - no more recovery mode screen - (kind of 'asleep' perhaps) from my understanding of same. I am awaiting a call again from IT so they can get my computer to actually recognise my iPhone on the C Drive. This also happened to  one of my colleagues in Newman (WA). She got so frustrated with the whole process that she bought another phone the next time she was in 'civilisation.' She hasn't had any problems since. (Cross fingers).
    Thanks again, Sandra2474.

  • HT1386 My iphone 4S is not syncing properly.  Some things that were on my iphone calendar are no long there but are still on my entourage calendar.  I cannot get them to go back to my phone.  Other things move ok, but not all.  What is happening and wht c

    Something has changed with my iphone syncing and I don't know what.  I use entourage exclusively for my calendar and contacts on my Mac computer.
    My calendars were syncing fine using itunes, both with wifi and connected.  Then some things disappeared from my calendar, and I can't get them back.  New events sync fine, but my computer has events that will not go over at all.  I even tried to replace all my phone calendar with everything from my entourage calendar, and again the same things did not move.  What could I be doing wrong.
    Now, I have a bunch of stuff on my Mac entourage calendar double.  There is sooooo much work to get that back to normal.  I am starting to think that my phone and calendar syncing is tooooo much work.  I don't have the time for this.

    But once again, I do not want to lose my other texts, app progress, and photos. I could sync the photos but i would still lose the app progress and texts. I would only restore if it was the only option left, but the other space, as already stated, isnt the main concern. The main concern is those 'deleted' texts. If they go, then a good size chunk of the other space goes. I know you CAN delete texts for good. It worked fine before. All i want to know is why its not working for me now, and how to fix it.
    I also know that when you delete texts on your iphone, they get marked for deletion, however they stay on your device (thats why they show up when you search for them.) then when you sync your device with itunes, the texts marked for deletion should disappear. When i synced they didnt disappear. Thats what i need an explanation/solution for. Why the texts marked for deletion didnt get fully deleted after the sync.

  • Z3 Compact is amazing! But can't get some things to work...

    Hi everyone, this is my first Sony phone, which I bought to replace my Galaxy S4. Went this route because of the reported awesome battery life and because I was fed up with such a "big" phone, and wanted somethign smaller. The flagship-speced Z3 Compact was the obvious choice. I've only had it for close to 4 days, and I'm in love. Xperias Android Skin is so much smoother, complete and logical than Samsungs, while the phone is much cooler and premium-feeling. So far there's three things I can't figure out though. 1. By reading, it seems it's a common problem, some reporting some things fixed it, most don't Facebook Events and Birthdays to show up on the Calendar. My Galaxy S4 showed both. I've only managed to have events show up on my Calendar, but can;t figure out why Birthdays are not there, and how to add them. Any solutions? 2. Message/Notification counts. ON the Galaxy S4, Whatsapp and Line, for example, had a little balloon showing the number of unread messages/notification that the app was reporting. On my Z3 Compact, this is not the case, not even with something more "stock" such as Hangouts, which I use as default SMS client. I know it does such a thing, because the Email app does show the amount of unread emails in a orange-yellowish balloon. Help? Other than those two... I adore this phone. Got close to 60 hours of usual usage out of a single charge, with not a single moment of lag, performance drop or Stamina mode enablment.. That's witchcraft, if you ask me. 3. Email app: I can't find an option to have the client always show images by default, instead of always clicking "Show Images" and then "Always show images". Where can I set this up? Thanks for all the help!

    I have the same problem with the synchronization of calendar and contacts the small size photos.Xperia with Facebook malfunctions and it's a flagship phone.Please indicate with this problem in a support, but did not get a solution.
    I was hoping that after updating to Lollipop problem will be solved, but it did not happen.
    You can make use applications Sync. ME and Calendar Sync for Facebook.
    Xperia with Facebook is not working properly !!!

  • Some things I'd like to see

    I don't know if these have already been addressed or if there is some setting that I've overlooked but I'll list them anyway. Here are some things I'd like to see different in Safari:
    1. "Save As..." or "Run". Not all files should go into one folder. Sometimes videos should go in its own folder, programs in another, as should pictures, etc. Also some programs have a file that needs to get ran in order for something else to get started. So there should be an option.
    2. View video or pictures in the web browser. Sometimes people will post a link to a video or picture and instead of viewing them in the browser, Safari tries and downloads it. Now I have to open the folder, clear the download manager's entry of the file, view the file, delete the file, and then empty my recycle bin. What a hassle! I'm sure Safari can give some native support to Mov or M4V files at least.
    3. Better website compatability. Even major sites like Chase for banking won't show up correctly because it didn't have Safari in mind but it shows up fine for IE or Firefox. I'd like to see some better code for that.
    4. Ability to sort bookmarks by name. I have imported all my bookmarks from IE just fine. But if I want to reorganize my folder by dragging the folder and moving it between folders, it won't let me. Instead, it opens up the folder like I want to add it between them. I'd like to see some better interfolder organzing with drag and drop or a "sort by name" option.
    5. This probably isn't a big one, but on some forums that have drop-down menus for searching (like forums), it just links down to a search box somewhere else on the page instead of providing the drop-down box.
    I love many of the other features that Safari offers but there are a few quirks that need to be addressed, IMO.

    Would it detect based on filetype, like .VIDEO?

I'm sure Safari can give some native support to Mov or M4V files at least.
    I haven't experienced this. I prefer my movies to open in my movie player, so I can full-screen it and keep surfing. Pictures open in the browser for me, but I'm not right-clicking or anything special.
    3. Better website compatability. Even major sites like Chase for banking won't show up correctly because it didn't have Safari in mind but it shows up fine for IE or Firefox. I'd like to see some better code for that.
    Some websites require extra code to get the site to look like they wanted. This goes for ALL browsers. The web developers did not take Safari into mind, so they didn't program for strict CSS rules, or other things. However, as far as I can tell most sites work fine, they just "look" different. (Fonts look better imo.)
    4. Ability to sort bookmarks by name. I have imported all my bookmarks from IE just fine. But if I want to reorganize my folder by dragging the folder and moving it between folders, it won't let me. Instead, it opens up the folder like I want to add it between them. I'd like to see some better interfolder organzing with drag and drop or a "sort by name" option.
    Try Bookmarks -> Show All Bookmarks
    5. This probably isn't a big one, but on some forums that have drop-down menus for searching (like forums), it just links down to a search box somewhere else on the page instead of providing the drop-down box.
    Is that the website? Some websites default to simple controls if Safari doesn't work with the preferred control.
    I love many of the other features that Safari offers but there are a few quirks that need to be addressed, IMO.

    I use other browsers like Firefox and IE. I use IE for work. Firefox is best for watching YouTube and letting plugins run wild.
    I have all plugins disabled in Safari and Java too. If I think a plugin is appropriate, I click the Firefox icon and paste in the URL.

  • Basic question regarding SSIS 2010 Package where source is Microsoft Excel 97-2005 and there is no Microsoft office or Excel driver installed in Production

    Hi all,
    I got one basic question regarding SSIS 2010 Package where source is Microsoft Excel 97-2005. I wanted to know How this package works in production where there is no Microsoft office or Excel driver installed. To check that there is excel driver installed
    or not, I followed steps: Start-->Administrative Tools--> Data Sources(ODBC)-->Drivers and I found only 2 drivers one is SQL Server and another one is SQL Server Native Client 11.0.
    Windows edition is Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise, Service Pack-1 and System type is 64-bit Operating System.
    We are running this package from SQL Server Agent and using 32-bit (\\Machine_Name\d$\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\110\DTS\Binn\DTExec.exe /FILE "\\Machine_Name\d$\ Folder_Name\EtL.dtsx" /CONFIGFILE "\\Machine_Name\d$\Folder_Name\Config.dtsConfig"
    /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING E) to run this package. I opened the package and tried to find out what connection we have used and found that we have used "Excel Connection Manager" and ConnectionString=Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data
    Source=F:\Fares.xls;Extended Properties="EXCEL 8.0;HDR=YES"; and source is ‘Excel Source’
    I discussed with my DBA and He said that SSIS is having inbuilt Excel driver but I am not convinced.
    Could anyone please clear my confusion/doubt?
    I have gone through various links but my doubt is still not clear.

    Thanks Shiven:) If Answer is Helpful, Please Vote

    Hi S Kumar Dubey,
    In SSIS, the Excel Source and Excel Destination natively use the Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider which is installed by SQL Server. The Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider deals with .xls files created by Excel 97-2003. To deal with .xlsx files created by
    Excel 2007, we need the Microsoft ACE OLEDB Provider. SQL Server doesn’t install the Microsoft ACE OLEDB Provider, to get it we can install the
    2007 Office System Driver: Data Connectivity Components or
    Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable or Microsoft Office suit.
    The drivers listed in the ODBC Data Source Administrator are ODBC drivers not OLEDB drivers, therefore, the Excel Source/Destination in SSIS won’t use the ODBC driver for Excel listed in it by default. On a 64-bit Windows platform, there are two versions
    of ODBC Data Source Administrator. The 64-bit ODBC Data Source Administrator is C:\Windows\System32\odbcad32.exe, while the 32-bit one is C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe. The original 32-bit and 64-bit ODBC drivers are installed by the Windows operating system.
    By default, there are multiple 32-bit ODBC drivers and fewer 64-bit ODBC drivers installed on a 64-bit platform. To get more ODBC drivers, we can install the 2007 Office System Driver: Data Connectivity Components or Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable.
    Besides, please note that 2007 Office System Driver: Data Connectivity Components only install 32-bit ODBC and OLEDB drivers because it only has 32-bit version, but the Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable has both 32- bit version and 64-bit
    version.
    If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
