Stand - alone project icon

Hi :)
I publish my project mostly as stand - alone windows
executable files. I'm wondering if there is a possibility to change
the icon of the exe-file? The captivate default icon is not exactly
what I need ;)
Thx

It may be worth trying Microangelo, it's worked in the past
for doing
the same thing to Authorware .exe files. If I recall, the
newer versions
may result in the .exe not being usable but if you can find
older
versions, they may have better results.
If not Microangelo, look for 'icon resource editors' and
maybe another
such software option will work...but that's really the only
option I
know of.

Problem in building JDBC ODBC connection with my stand alone Project.

Hello Everyone!
I gave the following command in order to create JAR file:
C:\app>jar cvfm MyJar.jar Manifest.txt .
and the Manifest file contains the code: Main - Class: Login
My Manifest File and the .class codes and the JAR file which is created successfully by the above command are in the same folder "app" and then I run the project both at command prompt by the command : C:\app>java -jar MyJar.jar
and by double clicking the JAR file. My project is running successfully but, I am using JDBC - ODBC Driver in my project and I want to let this project run in any other computer system. So, any other user who is unknown to the Driver used and Database used in my project can't be able to run my project if the specified driver is not installed in his machine and also there is a bridge of ODBC Data Source (from control panel-- Administrative Tools-- Data Sources(ODBC) )from which Driver is selected and the Database is specified.
In order to test my application, I had removed the data source name from the Control Panel's Data Sources (ODBC) properties' window. Then I run my project then the following error msg is shown in command prompt:
C:\app>java -jar MyJar.jar
java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
at sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbc.createSQLException(JdbcOdbc.java:6879)
at sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbc.standardError(JdbcOdbc.java:7036)

at Login.<init>(Login.java:37)
at Login.main(Login.java:364)
Error Trace in getConnection() : [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
So, I have a doubt at this point that how a user is able to configure this bridge in order to run my application who is unknown to my project's back-hand? As JRE is essential to run my project so, I have decided to give setup of JRE with my project's CD, may the JDBC - ODBC Driver providing to the user with my application setup solve this problem ?
Please help me to solve my problem.

Please please help me.Lets presume hypothetically that the jTDS driver won't work with 2000. It might or might not.
However the fact remains that your ODBC driver is not working.
So the first step is to stop trying to run your full application. Instead you create a very simple console application that does nothing but connect to the database.
Problems that usually occur from that would be.
1. The connection string is not correct for MS SQL Server.
2. The connection information for the database is not correct
3. The database (nothing to do with java) is not configured to accept connections.

Dependency list in project shows 2 DLL files. What do I need to do when creating a stand-alone executable file to ensure that it is included?

When the executable that I created is run on a stand-alone machine, a search is instantly launched to locate the missing *.DLL files along with about 20 other sub vi files from an example vi file that I downloaded last week. Once the exampe vi was open, I modified the block diagram and the front panel and then I resaved it with a new name.
The missing sub-vi files are the same files that I saw listed in the Dependencies list of the project along with the 2 DLL files. This problem shouldn't be happening because I included the top level vi file that contains the sub-vi files into the source files list under the Start-Up VIs window of the application properties. What needs to be done to make this stand-alone executabale complete?

OK...So it's not a simple as clicking the mountian icon above and inserting the location of the picture file on my PC huh? It works on my end just fine, but I understand you all don't see it.
I really don't understand why this is such a complicated process in this discussion forum, but your explanation isn't working for me. SO, I'm going to write what I understand to be the proper procedure and you tell me if it's wrong.
Attach my image using the Browse button below. That makes sense. Done that.
Edit my post - Edit it? How is typing this message in the window any different from editing my post??? Are you sugesting that I Edit As HTML(http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/post?board.id=170&message.reply_to_id=244152#) using the shortcut in the lower right hand side of the frame??? I not, please explain a different way.
I right clicked the adress in the window under the Attachment heading below the lower left hand side of the frame, copied it and pasted it into the Script Prompt: dialog pop-up that appeared when I clicked on the mountain icon in the tools menu. By the way,
Now I see my image in the post just before I sent it.
Don't you see it now?
As for the DLL file - the ONLY way I can find the DLL file that I need is to refresh the dependencies list in my project. As I explained in my previous posts, those two DLL files came with an example vi that i downloaded from the NI website last week and they must have been embedded inside of the example because I didn't create them myself and I've since resaed the original example vi as one that's been renamed by myself. In doing so, I presume that the DLL file was inherited from the original example vi file to my own vi file. However, that's clearly not the case because every time I run the executable file that I created with the renamed example vi file in my project, it immediately launches a searchfor the DLL files that it claims are missing!!! SInce the DLL files are ONLY visible in the dependencies list, I can't transfer them to the Dynamic VI and Support files window in the Application Builder. SO, I drag them up the Source Files tree in the Application Builder to the top of the tree where the Start-up vi is located and then I can move them to the Dynamic VI and Support Files window. Those DLL files don't appaer inthe top level of the tree where the Start-up vi appears before I move it to the Start-up vi window of the Application Builder. I'll try it again.

Project Management in stand alone environment

My customer belong to professional service(IT delivery service) industry.
And they want to manage their projects by using PPM 5.0(cProjects).
One of my customer's requirement is managing their projects in stand alone environment.
That is to say, project manager excute the project in the customer site after contracting their customer project.
But customer forbid him to set network environment as VPN because of customer's securiy policy.
Can I meet custome's requirement by using cProjects.
Could you give me any good solution.

Hi,
I believe the cProjects (PPM5.0) is the SAP solution provided for the such type of project management requirements only. You can use cProjects as standalone Project management solution, wherein you can plan, execute and monitor your projects from remote locatuons (customer site). You can use cProjects by using NWBC on HTML and / or Enterprise portal (EP). Please read for SAP Help and other SAP PPM 5.0 reference documents to get more details about how it will fit in your requirement.

Skin menu won't work in stand alone published project

Morning
I created skin with a menu, but when I published it
as a stand alone (.exe) the menu doesn't link to anything... I've
double ck'd my links and all are OK. The links I put in to other
project via a 'button' work fine. It's just the skin menu that
doesn't work. Help! Thank you
Bev

Hi Jef,
thanks for your answer. There were noch errors while installation, and, as I have said, the bridge ist working within Photoshop as "Minibridge" Trying to start bridge itself still fails.
I was also using the above mentioned loganalyzer, he returned a message, that everything is ok with the install.
any further ideas? I am concerned, that maybe the download from the Adobe-Site could be corrupt and/or incomplete???
Best regards,

Stand alone application(.exe) : Error 7 occurred at Open File+.vi: Open File (error: L'erreur 7 s'est produite à : Open File+.vi:Open File)

Dear group members - as i am trying to build a stand alone application , i ran into this problem : "Error 7 occurred at Open File+.vi: Open File" (L'erreur 7 s'est produite à : Open File+.vipen File)
when i select continue i get this error message: "Error 7 occurred at open/create/replace file in Write spreadsheet string.vi->Write To Spreadsheet File (I64).vi->Mono Com Write ini.vi->mainVI2.vi"" ( "L'erreur 7 s'est produite à : Ouvrir/Créer/Remplacer un fichier dans Write Spreadsheet String.vi->Write To Spreadsheet File (I64).vi->Mono Com Write ini.vi->mainVI2.vi" )
i didn't get what's the problem with this vi, i have no problem running my VIs
Can any one here help me out ?
here is the project :

Neither can I. When I opened your Project, there were no VIs present on the top level. The Build Spec refers to a Mainv12, which I finally found buried in the folder Interface 2, but when I tried to open it, there were multiple missing VIs. I notice you have an Interface 2.llb -- is this the same as the VIs in the Interface 2 folder? If so, try getting rid of the .llb (at least for the purpose of sharing your code in the Forum) and re-post your code. As it stands, when I open your Project, virtually every entry is marked "Warning: has been deleted, etc." The fact that so much is "missing" means that I can't easily see/understand MainV12, hence can't guess where the File Not Found error is arising. Sorry.

Flash Player Renders Images Differently in Browser than Stand-alone Player

Hey, guys!
Not sure if this is a Flash issue or a Flash Player issue, but here we go...
I`m currently working on a Flash project with a great deal of images.
Flash does a great job compressing images, but in some cases it messes up the colors.
I have a big image on the background and it`s set to 80 compression from the Properties panel.
Everything looks fine in the stand-alone Flash Player when exporting from the IDE or even opening from disc, but when I insert the SWF in a HTML page (with SWFObject, dunno if it matters) some werid artifacts show up, and also the colors get shifted to slightly different values (I can tell since I have a background that should match the SWFs background!)...
There is a workaround, though. Setting compression to Lossless... Then everything looks EXACTLY the same both in the stand-alone player and in the browser. Just that you end up with a 900 kilo image instead of 200 and something... :|
And if you have several images that have to be treated "Losslessly", you end up with a pretty big SWF!
My other workaround was to sample the colors in the browser and modify the ones in my CSS for the HTML background.
That works well for the colors, but I still end up with some ugly artifacts, even when compression is set to 100!
And, again, the strange thing is that in the stand-alone player, everything is honkey dorey, the colors and all!
NOTE: the project I`m working on is a Flash 10 file, ActionScript 2, if that would matter...
Thank you for your time and I appreciate any suggestion/explanation!

Problem while calling a Webservice from a Stand alone java program

Hello Everyone,
I am using a java program to call a webservice as follows. For this I have generated the client proxy definition for Stand alone proxy using NWDS.
Now when I call the method of the webservice I am getting the correct result but along with the result I am getting one error and one warning message in the output.
The java code to call the webservice is as follows.
public class ZMATRDESCProxyClient {
     public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
          Z_MATRDESC_WSDService ws = new Z_MATRDESC_WSDServiceImpl();
          Z_MATRDESC_WSD port = (Z_MATRDESC_WSD)ws.getLogicalPort("Z_MATRDESC_WSDSoapBinding",Z_MATRDESC_WSD.class);
          String res = port.zXiTestGetMatrDesc("ABCD134");
          System.out.print(res);
The result I am getting is :
Warning ! Protocol Implementation [com.sap.engine.services.webservices.jaxrpc.wsdl2java.features.builtin.MessageIdProtocol] could not be loaded (NoClassDefFoundError) !
Error Message is :com/sap/guid/GUIDGeneratorFactory
<b>Material Not Found</b> -
> This is the output of webservice method and it is right.
Can any one please let me know why I am getting the warning and error message and how can I fix this.
Thanks

Hi Abinash,
I have the same problem. Have you solve that problem?
I am using a java program to call a webservice too. And I have generated the client proxy definition for Stand alone proxy using NWDS. When I call the method of the webservice I am getting the correct result but along with the result I am getting one error and one warning message in the output.
The java code to call the webservice is as follows.
MIDadosPessoaisSyncService service = new MIDadosPessoaisSyncServiceImpl();
MIDadosPessoaisSync port = service.getLogicalPort("MIDadosPessoaisSyncPort");
port._setProperty("javax.xml.rpc.security.auth.username","xpto");
port._setProperty("javax.xml.rpc.security.auth.password","xpto");
String out = port.MIDadosPessoaisSync("xpto", "xpto");
System.out.println(out);
The result I am getting is :
Warning ! Protocol Implementation [com.sap.engine.services.webservices.jaxrpc.wsdl2java.features.builtin.MessageIdProtocol] could not be loaded (NoClassDefFoundError) !
Error Message is :com/sap/guid/GUIDGeneratorFactory
<b>The result of the WS is correct!!!</b>
The Java project does not have any warning. But the stand alone proxy project has following warnings associated with it.
This method has a constructor name     MIDadosPessoaisSync.java
The import javax.xml.rpc.holders is never used     MIDadosPessoaisSyncBindingStub.java
The import javax.xml.rpc.encoding is never used     MIDadosPessoaisSyncBindingStub.java
The constructor BaseRuntimeException(ResourceAccessor, String, Throwable) is deprecated     MIDadosPessoaisSyncBindingStub.java
It is very similar with your problem, could you help me?
Thanks

Can Adobe Premiere CC 2014 be Installed as a Stand-Alone Upgrade?

Can Adobe Premiere CC 2014 be Installed as a Stand-Alone Upgrade without having to conflict with an Adobe CC suite on a given machine?

Yes, I have PrP CS6, CC and CC2014 all currently available on my system. The only pain I've experienced is that project files insist on opening in CC2014 even though I am wanting to primarily work in CC. If I tell the system to always open ALL .prproj files in CC, it seems to be very inconsistent and typically opens in CC2014.
CC2014 creates a new, separate app file and all (most?) prefs are stored in 8.0 folders.

Export from iMovie to stand-alone DVD hard drive

I want to preserve camcorder home movies edited in iMovie. The DVD recorded from iDVD won't play on my existing DVD player. Could I use the hard drive of a stand-alone DVD recorder/player to import from iMovie? I don't currently own one.
iMacG5 Mac OS X (10.4.3) Tapes from miniDv Canon Optura 60

A key consideration is the amount of free space on your boot hard drive. You will probably need a minimum of 15 to 20 GB to complete your project in iDVD. If you will have this amount of free space after copying over the files, go ahead.
BTW, if you plan on making several copies, make your first 'burn' to a disk image on your hard drive (it's an option under 'File' if I remember correctly).
Verify the disk image with Apple's DVD Player and then burn the copies you need with Apple's Disk Utility. See http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=42724 and http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93006

Adding GIF images to a stand-alone program

Error building stand alone application, with LV.7.01

Hi to all....
I always get this pop up error (see picture attached) when trying to build a Stand alone application. I got the full version of Labview 7.01 and the Application builder also. the runtime engine is also 7.01.

Error Building App.JPG ‏51 KB

Hi GardW
All comm. problem are handeled.
The problem was based on the destinations for the .VI's.
Labview 7.1 isn't so got to manage these. It's something the user got to be carefully about.
Allmost solved. But now can't get the default 'labview Icon' to my finnished Application. You know... when you make a stand alone application..
then somewhere under the building process... you can choose if you want your own Icon added as the application starter icon! If you don't choose any.. Labview makes the Labview Icon as your application starter Icon.
And that is my problem now. Any ideas???
Thanks for trying to help , i appriceate it !!

Code behaves different when SWF is in browser as opposed to stand alone player, why?

In ActionScript, I have some code that dispatches a
MOUSE_OVER event when a tween is complete. I am using Tweener for
the tween. On my Mac OSX machine, I preview the SWF file in a stand
alone player spawned from my Flash IDE, and the event is dispatched
and the behavior works as expected, but when I preview the SWF file
as embedded in a MacOSX browser, the event is not dispatched. On a
Windows machine, however, the event is dispatched both in a stand
alone player and within the embedded SWF file in a browser. The
problem seems to come particularly from the Mac OSX player.
Has anybody ever experienced this? Is the OSX implementation
of the Flash player different in a stand alone and browser setting?
Here is the code that I am using:

HMMM! Verrrrrry interesting.
Yes file size is an issue, it's a large project.
Exterenally host it?
Where could I go and do that?
I'm not familiar with this process. Can you please tell me exactly how it works?
And....that means both servers need to be up and running? Kinda sounds a bit shakey. This project needs to be strong and stand alone to go here and there. Durable.
I feel safer if its all in one piece. Bam.
You know, I noticed "FAST" and "BEST" does not make a difference to file size or quality.
Could I be wrong?
Thanks.

How to use an SWF file generated by Flex as a Stand Alone file

Whenever we compile an MXML file, there is an SWF file
generated. This file is not a standalone file and will not work on
any other computer expect on the computer where there is a Project
file created by the Flex builder.
Why am I not able to use that SWF file as a stand alone file?
If I want to use that SWF file alone as in the SWF generated
by Flash what do I have to do?
Regards,
Rashmi

The swf file will run from anywhere. What's it doing when you
try to open it on another machine?
The only thing I can think of is if you're getting a security
violation in which case you would need to read about Flash Player
trust files and security.

Stand Alone Skin Editor

Here is the scenario. I am strictly a front-end developer using HTML, CSS, Javascript etc. I have been brought onboard to work on a project that uses the Oracle Fusion Middleware ADF Framework. I am a total noob with this stuff!!
We are currently working a project using jDevleoper 11.1.1.4 (We cannot use a different/updated version - we are currently stuck with this version, and no I do not know why)
I am going to be responsible for ALL of the front-end look and feel. I thought, ok no biggie, I just work my CSS magic and that will create everything as needed... Boy was I absolutely wrong! So I checked the ADF Skin Editor (have to use the stand alone version due to project being worked on within 11.1.1.4). I am having an extremely hard time find tutorials just using the standalone version! Every tutorial or demo is using the integrated Skin Editor within jDeveloper 11.1.2.
Does anyone know of any good beginner tutorials for using the standalone Skin Editor? I am really struggling with this since I don't even know if I can actually use the editor to create the .css and then how to get into the jDeveloper 11.1.1.4 project!?
Again, I am totally new to this and back-end environment. What may seem like basic ideas/thoughts/language to you, is actually like me trying to read a foreign language that I have no understanding of. So think of me like ultimate dummy here! :)
I appreciate any feedback, suggestions on tutorials/demos/books and thoughts that anyone can provide for me to learn this.
Thank you and have a great day!
Michael

Hi,
just few inputs from me, just hoping it would be helpful, the easiest thing you can do are :
1) download jdev 11.1.2 version, there you can select new skin file, drag and drop component and play around, and then go to source, you will see code you made in design. see http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E16162_01/user.1112/e17456/adfsg_selectors.htm for more details.
2) use http://jdevadf.oracle.com/adf-richclient-demo/faces/components/skinningKeys/menu.jspx , and play around and and click print content to see the generated code.
You can copy generated code and use in your jdev 11.1.1.4 version or wtever version :)
The main idea here is, you have to know the skin selector for each component.
for example for af:menu component you css selector would be
af|menu {
and again, for menu bar item selector is :
af|menu::bar-item{
for hover :
af|menu::bar-item:highlighted{
background-color: #959595 !important;
Just to give me head up,
for af:commandButton => af|commandButton{ }
for af:breadcrumb => af|breadcrumb{}
and so forth
and each of these has psedo selector such as :selected , :highlighted ::menu-item-text but each component will have different different psedo selector ...
eg :
af|commandMenuItem::bar-item:depressed
af|commandMenuItem::bar-item:highlighted
af|commandMenuItem:highlighted::menu-item-open-indicator
af|menuBar::overflow-indicator
af|breadCrumbs::step:selected
af|breadCrumbs::step
go through this link for all different selector and psedo selectors
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B25221_05/web.1013/e18745/skin-selectors.html
