Static Context: What Does it REALLY mean?

Friends,
I really having this trouble of grabbing the idea of static context vs non-static context.
Lets say I have a static method, is that mean that all items (variables and calls) inside it are assumed to be static as well?
Thanks in advance.

Any statement or expression inside the static method is said to "occur in a static context". In such a method - like the traditional main() method - only static members and methods can be used.
(Statements and expressions occuring in lots of other places are also said to occur in a static context - see the JLS http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/third_edition/html/classes.html#296300 for details. In a loose sense what these contexts have in common is that they "belong" to the class as a whole, rather than to any specific instance: they relate to class wide things and operations.)

Caution: Method is obsolete as of Release 46C ! What does it really mean?

Hi people,
I have a business requirement to create a soap interface for creating sales orders no ECC600. I must return, after order created, some details from item schedule lines. I found that BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT1 has this information as return, but at transaction BAPI, below the object status, there is this message "Caution: Method is obsolete as of Release 46C

Mdworker deny file-read-data, what does it really mean?

I get numerous log posts like this:
3/17/14 7:22:57.561 AM sandboxd[5688]: ([4412]) mdworker(4412) deny file-read-data /Volumes/Time Machine Backups/Backups.backupdb/Jack Shelton’s iMac/2014-03-17-042247/JackHD/System/Library/Fonts/TimesLTMM (import fstype:hfs fsflag:4809018 flags:48200000056 diag:0 uti:com.apple.font-suitcase plugin:/Library/Spotlight/Font.mdimporter - find suspect file using: sudo mdutil -t 235288)
My questiions are:
What is being sandboxed, the mdworker or the file Times LTMM or the mdimporter?
Which one has the sudo command in it?
What does the -t flag/option mean? Looking it up via man mdutil in the terminal, it does't exist.
I saw this type of post quite frequently in Mavericks so much so that I decided to start over from scratch. I wiped the HD including the HD Recovery partition and installed OS X 10.6.8. I am now in Mountain Lion and have reinstalled MS Office 2011 and loaded the main identity data from my recovered files. I did not see any adverse log posts until I ran the first time machine backup.
I hope someone can clear the air for me with perhaps a way to fix it.

Thank you Baltwo. It's a major relief to know that the sudo command is being used by an Apple app/process and not by a file that's not supposed to have it.. However a few more questions if you don't mind.
Is the font file the suspect file or is it this particular mdworker?
If the font file is the suspect file will a process or app that calls for it be allowed to use it?
Which process/app/file invoked the sandbox and deny file-read-data?
What is the role of the mdimporter?
These questions are part of my attempt to understand how a large part of the files on my computer and Time Machine become corrupted when I first installed Mavericks. Mainly .plist (and other plain text files), .png, jpeg (and other picture types) and pkg info bundles would have thier icons and file Kind changed to Unix Executable files, spreadssheets and doc/docx would become genrandom (or something similar). I became aware of this when my machine began freezing up. I made several clean reinstalls and the problems would reoccur on plugging in the Time Machine. I eventually recovered the files I wanted from the Time Machine but I had to use another iMac with an older OS X. I repartitioned my machine and rebuilt it to Mountain Lion and i'm in the process of reloading with what I hope are non corrupted files. Although I still see log posts like "Locum[6230]: Connection with distnoted server was invalidated" every time I paste a folder or file. I don't know what that means but it doesn't seem to cause any further reaction or posts.
My apologizes for bothering you with alll this and thanks for your insight.

COPA Acronym - What does it really mean???

Hello All,
I have a very simple question that has been often addressed to me for which I truly can't provide a bona-fide answer to. That question is "What does the acronym CO-PA actually stand for"?
I know the universally accepted response would be Profitability Analysis but what does the CO portion of the acronym really stand for? Is it Cost/Operability or Cost of Operations or what????
Thanks!!

CO stands for Controlling and PA stands for Profitability Analyis. So the combination of CO-PA stands for Controlling-Profitability Analysis.
Profitability Analysis is one of the sub-modules, along with Cost Center Accounting (CCA) and others, that's part of the Controlling module in R3/ECC. Controlling is pretty much Managerial Accounting (as opposed to FI - Financials which is Financial Accounting).

IPhone: what does "kCFStreamStatusAtEnd" really mean...

I am working on a streaming app, and on WiFi sometimes I get a kCFStreamStatusAtEnd status. Trouble is, the source is always there, so there is nothing that "ends", and on WiFi it should be nice and stable. The app relogs in automatically and everything is cool, but I would expect uninterrupted streaming. So what actually signals a stream being "at end?"

What does this message mean? : "The file name "DSC_0088.jpg" is offline or missing." ?

What does this message mean? : "The file name "DSC_0088.jpg" is offline or missing." I am in the process of importing photos from iPhoto (don't really know what I'm doing....) and when I look at one of the imported photos that message pops up. I know what "DSC_0088.jpg" is. I don't know what it means that the file is "missing".

CASpyr,
Thank you so much for your reply. I have a couple of bigger issues that I am dealing with: too many photos on my laptop: 40,000! (Of course I have to throw away many of them, but that is time consuming). I have a MacBook Pro and have primarily used IPhoto. I have recently purchased 2 external drives and have transferred my photos to those, but I need a basic education about how photos are stored, copied, etc. I have recently been told that iPhoto only shows and deals with jpegs, not RAW. About 1/3 of my photos are RAW, so I purchased Lightroom, so I could do more with those RAW photos. I have been told by my local Mac store that I need to delete most of my photos from iPhoto, because it's causing problems. I am reluctant to do so until I am sure that all of the keywords, descriptions and editing I have done to these photos is not lost when deleted from iPhoto. I just watched a tutorial about importing to Lightroom and got out of it that I needed to copy photos from iPhoto to a file on my desktop and then copy to Lightroom. I did that, it seemed to work. Then (because of my storage/memory issues) I deleted the photos (just a few as an experiment) from that desktop file. I'm guessing that is why Lightroom doesn't recognize the the photos. It seems that (learned from another tutorial) that one uses "Add" , Lightroom is only connecting to the source of the photo, not actually copying it to the program. Sounds like I need to use the "Move" feature instead. My ultimate goal is to store the photos on the 2 external drives and eliminate most of them from my lapop. So my basic questions have to do with what data (metadata??) is copied from iPhoto to an external drive (RAW???) and what isn't copied. Basic understanding issues,obviously…. I hope this isn't too much to ask. If you can recommend a book or resource that can explain those basic issues to me I'd appreciate it. I just got back from a trip and I can't download my new photos until I manage the rest!
Thanks,
Nancy

What does keyword "final" mean?

what does keyword "final" mean? and where can I find information about basic of Java?

Another word about final-
methods declared "final" cannot be overrided. For example:
class Person {
     String name;
     double pay;
     /* these methods are static, meaning you can access them
     * without making an object of this class. They're
     * also delcared final, meaning the values will never change. */
     public static final int JANITOR = 1;
     public static final int PLUMBER = 2;
     public static final int PROGRAMMER = 3;
     public Person(String s) {
          name = s;
     public final void setJob(int job) {
          if (job == JANITOR) pay = 100.00;
          if (job == PLUMBER) pay = 300.00;
          if (job == PROGRAMMER) pay = 500.00;
          else pay = 00.00;
}Now with that class, you can still use the final method setJob:
Person myPerson = new Person("Bob");
myPerson.setJob(Person.PROGRAMMER);But if you make an extension of Person, you can't ovverride the setJob method.
(I'm not 100% sure that's the entire truth, but I'm pretty sure it is)

What does this message mean Charging is not supported with this device?

You've gotten 2 good answers already, but there's a key assumption in both that you got the message when connecting the iPhone to some other device. If this is the case you can get an adapter in the Apple online store that will allow charging from older devices.
If, however, this message appears when you are not connected to anything the problem is dirt or moisture in the dock connector at the bottom of the phone. Clean it with a dry toothbrush or air blast.

The operation can’t be completed because the item “12b” is in use. What does this message mean. It appeared as I was attempting to clear my time machine backup?

Reboot your machine make sure Aperture doesn't start (as Lion is liable to do) and try it.

What does this message mean? "Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired" I get this when I try to repair permissions in disk utility.

It's an innocuous error you can ignore. It was introduced with previous updates for ARD and/or Java before Lion. These are messages, not errors. They will cause no harm, and they will be repeated each time you repair permissions.

What does this message mean: "power pc applications are no longer supported"?

What does this message mean: you can not start because power pc applications are no longer supported?

Here is a post that I assembled for another who needed to continue to run his PowerPC applications in Lion/Mt. Lion:
Unfortunately you got caught up in the minor miracle of Rosetta. Originally licensed by Apple when it migrated from the PowerPC CPU platform that it had used from the mid-1990's until the Intel CPU platform in 2006, Rosetta allowed Mac users to continue to use their library of PPC software transparently in emulation.
However, Apple's license to continue to use this technology expired with new releases of OS X commencing with Lion (and now Mountain Lion). While educational efforts have been made over the last 6 years, the fact is that Rosetta was SO successful that many users were caught unaware UNTIL they upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion.
Workarounds:
1. If your Mac will support it, restore OS X Snow Leopard;
2. If your Mac will support it, partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it and use the "dual-boot" method to choose between your PowerPC software or Lion/Mt. Lion;
3. Upgrade your software to Intel compatible versions, or find alternative software that will open your data files;
3. Install Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels:

Full Snow Leopard installation instructions here:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1365439
NOTE: STEP ONE of the instructions must currently be completed on a Snow Leopard or Lion Mac and the resulting modified Snow Leopard.cdr install file can then be moved over to your Mountain Lion Mac for completion of the remaining steps.
NOTE 2: Computer games with complex, 3D or fast motion graphics make not work well or at all in virtualization.
