Testing for applet compatibility

I have an AWT IRC Client applet that I want to work on multiple Java VMs. Are there any good tools / books / web-sites that easily lay-out what compatibility problems are experienced with different VMs.
How about a web-site where I can easily download different VM versions to see if all the classes will load ? I am having problems even finding older versions of jview.exe, without explicitly installing an older version of Windows.
Cheers

Hi,
I have the same problem. I tried to make my applet 1.1 compliant,
but was compiling under 1.3. Even more, some applets are running under jre 1.1.5 but not with 1.1.2. For example, awt scrollpanes do not exist in 1.1.2.
My general rule is : "if you see a deprecated method, use it! "
Also, don't use the 1.1 event model, use 1.0 event model instead
if you find any solution, please post it here under...

Itunes 7.6 update not passing windows logo testing for compatibility

I have tried to update itunes 3 times. It downloads fine but when it gets to the installation part, I get a warning from windows saying that this software has not passed the windows logo test for compatibility and that if I proceed with the installaton, The system may get impaired. So I stop installation, but eventually I have to update itunes. My ipod gets updated but itunes is not. Lately I've been having problems with my ipod acting buggy. Is this familiar to anyone? Why is this happening and what do I need to do? Thanks!

With that particular message, it might be worth checking through the techniques from the following Microsoft document:
(MS) You cannot install some updates or programs

Condition to test for the browser closing/refreshing

I have an applet that rotates pictures in a html file. I have it in an eternal loop to keep it running. It loads fine, but if you refresh or try to close the browser, the browser locks. Without question this happens because the loop does not test for the browser closing or refreshing so the loop never stops. Does anyone have an idea of a Java condition to test for the browser closing/refreshing so I can stop my loop when these events occur.

The applets stop message should be called on a reload and/or a close. You could set a flag in your stop method that could be checked by a thread that actually sits and loops.
When the flag is set, kill the tread.
You should clear that flag in your start method.

Which Java version is recommended for widest compatibility?

I started learning and coding with JDK 1.1_Final, but particular code elements do not seem to be working. For example, overriding update() to not clear the screen and instead only call paint() has no effect at all - the screen still gets cleared! I had hoped to compile using 1.1.x for maximum browser compatibility, but if the language version doesn't work then there's little point in using it. So, with the release of Java 2 and SDK 1.4.x, what are people doing out there to code applets that will reach the widest target audience? I've restricted my HTML code limited to the 4.x browsers or higher, but haven't yet found a listing of which versions of Java are compatible with which versions of browsers. (Sun's FAQ is incomplete in this matter.) So, I'm not quite sure how to balance the compatibility issues and decide which version of Java to use for reaching a reasonable 'maximum' target audience without forcing site visitors to upgrade their browsers for viewing my applets. (I hate sites like that!) So, what version of Java do you use for applets, and why? What browser versions are you compatible with? What other issues should I be considering? Thanks for helping me to select an appropriate Java applet version that will reach the most people.

Looking for proper SIM card for applet development

Hi,
I would like to develop some applet on the SIM card. And does anyone know where I can get the proper SIM card?
I have a bit search for test SIM card and blank SIM card, but I am not sure which one can be used for applet development. It seems that Gemalto provides some development suit that includes some sample cards. But the suit is too expensive and maybe I don't need the tools they provide. I don't want to buy the wrong one, so it would be very helpful if any of you has some provider information or links!!
Thanks in advance!!

I don't want to buy the wrong one, so it would be very helpful if any of you has some provider information or links!!Are you just want to write applications or wanna be able to install them too on real cards ? If the purpose is just writing of apps then oracle and ETSI have provided everything, you don't need to buy any additional tool. But yes for dubuging you will need some third party tool or write your own one : -)

Test for JSR-82

Is it possible to perform a test to see if a particular phone supports JSR82?
I have two phones, one which supports JSR-82 and one which doesn't. My app works fine on the phone that supports JSR-82 but on the one that doesn't I get an error stating "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/bluetooth/DiscoveryListener".
Ideally, what I want to do is test for JSR-82 compatibility on launch, catch an exception and then gracefully inform the user of the incompatibility.

you can try:
try{
Class c=Class.forName("javax.bluetooth.DiscoveryListener")
// bluetooth supported
}catch(ClassNotFoundException cnfe){
// bluetooth unsupported
}

Testing my applet

how can I cancel the temporary files feature in internet explorer so I can test my applet ?
any other solution for this frusrating situation ?

Thank you both
And how can I debug my applet in this case
(I cannot use AppletViewer cause I'm using
getAppletContext() for links)Hmm.. I answered that in a thread a couple of days ago. I'll try and see if I can find it.

XI testing for two SAP R/3 systems with same system id/logical system

Hi
We are currently in the process of upgrading our R/3 4.7 to ECC 6.0 and plan to maintain dual landscape for DEV & QA (4.7 & ECC 6.0) for a period for testing and maintaining existing applications for fixes etc. The second DEV & QA (upgraded to ECC 6.0) are copy of respective systems and these systems are created automatically under technical systems in SLD by auto update (RZ70).
The question is, can we use the same XI system for testing inbound/outbound interfaces for both the systems i.e 4.7 & ECC 6.0 at the same time. I am aware of the fact that XI Technical/Business sytems dependent on unique logical systems, so we cannot create new business system for the upgraded DEV-II ECC 6.0 system.
For your information, we have two slds (one for XID/XIQ and second one for XIP).
What are the options without disturbing & maintaining the current XI system set up?
1) Can we change current Business systems e.g DEV010 to use new technical system i.e DEV-II ECC 6.0 for testing for a period and switch it back to DEV-I 4.7 technical system?
2) or change logitical system name of DEV-II ECC 6.0 and create new business sytem in SLD without interfering the existing setup and modify/create interfaces to use this new business system?
3) Do we need to refresh cache from time to time in XI ?
4) Any other implications
We will be upgrading XI to PI 7.1 after ECC 6. 0 Upgrade.
Any views on this would be highly appreciated.
Regards
Chandu

Hi
Technical System was created in the SLD automatically after RZ70 configuration in the new DEV-II system. We then modified Business System to use the new Technical system and carried out following steps:
1)     Original Idoc metadata was deleted from XID
2)     The port definition was deleted
3)     A new port definition was created for new system
4)     The metadata for each idoc type used was re-created in IDX2 , using METADATA -> CREATE
5)     This brought in all known versions of the idoc segments, including the 7.1 version.
I have already checked the guides suggested for our upgrade and we are thinking of going ahead with fresh installation and migrating the interfaces.

How to test for différent Select into a single PL/SQL block ?

Hi,
I am relatively new to PL/SQL and I am trying to do multiple selects int a single PL/SQL block. I am confronted to the fact that if a single select returns no data, I have to go to the WHEN DATA_NOT_FOUND exception.
Or, I would like to test for different selects.
In an authentification script, I am searching in a table for a USER ID (USERID) and an application ID, to check if a user is registered under this USERID for this APPLICATION.
There are different possibilities : 4 possibilities :
- USERID Existing or not Existing and
- Aplication ID found or not found for this particular USERID.
I would like to test for thes 4 possibilities to get the status of this partiular user regardin this application.
The problem is that if one select returns no row, I go to the exception data not found.
In the example below you see that if no row returned, go to the exception
DECLARE
P_USERID VARCHAR2(400) DEFAULT NULL;
P_APPLICATION_ID NUMBER DEFAULT NULL;
P_REGISTERED VARCHAR2(400) DEFAULT NULL;
BEGIN
SELECT DISTINCT(USERID) INTO P_USERID FROM ACL_EMPLOYEES
WHERE USERID = :P39_USERID AND APPLICATION_ID = :APP_ID ;
:P39_TYPE_UTILISATEUR := 'USER_REGISTERED';
EXCEPTION
WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
:P39_TYPE_UTILISATEUR := 'USER_NOT_FOUND';
END;I would like to do first this statement :
SELECT DISTINCT(USERID) INTO P_USERID FROM ACL_EMPLOYEES
WHERE USERID = :P39_USERID Then to do this one if the user is found :
SELECT DISTINCT(USERID) INTO P_USERID FROM ACL_EMPLOYEES
WHERE USERID = :P39_USERID AND APPLICATION_ID = :APP_ID ;etc...
I basically don't want to go to the not found exception before having tested the 4 possibilities.
Do you have a suggestion ?
Thank you for your kind help !
Christian

Surely there are only 3 conditions to check?
1. The user exists and has that app
2. The user exists and doesn't have that app
3. The user doesn't exist
You could do this in one sql statement like:
with mimic_data_table as (select 1 userid, 1 appid from dual union all
                          select 1 userid, 2 appid from dual union all
                          select 2 userid, 1 appid from dual),
-- end of mimicking your table
         params_table as (select :p_userid userid, :p_appid appid from dual)
select pt.userid,
       pt.appid,
       decode(min(case when dt.userid = pt.userid and dt.appid = pt.appid then 1
                       when dt.userid = pt.userid then 2
                       else 3
                  end), 1, 'User and app exist',
                        2, 'User exists but not for this app',
                        3, 'User doesn''t exist') user_app_check
from   mimic_data_table dt,
       params_table pt
where pt.userid = dt.userid (+)
group by pt.userid, pt.appid;
:p_userid = 1
:p_appid = 2
    USERID      APPID USER_APP_CHECK
         1          2 User and app exist
:p_userid = 1
:p_appid = 3
    USERID      APPID USER_APP_CHECK
         1          3 User exists but not for this app
:p_userid = 3
:p_appid = 2
    USERID      APPID USER_APP_CHECK
         3          2 User doesn't exist

How to test for existence of AcroXFA test objects?

Hi -
I'm writing scripts to test an XFA form with dynamic subforms. For example, at the end of Part 4, the user hits a Validate button, and if their data is correct, then the Validate button disappears and a Part 5 subform appears.
So my script looks something like this:
Function GetButtonPart4Validate()
   Set GetButtonPart4Validate = PDFDoc("TestForm").AcroXFAForm("form").AcroXFAForm("form1")
.AcroXFAForm("sfPart4").AcroXFAButton("sfValidate")
End Function
Function GetPart5()
   Set GetPart5 = PDFDoc("TestForm").AcroXFAForm("form").AcroXFAForm("form1").AcroXFAForm("sfPart5")
End Function
GetButtonPart4Validate().Click
PDFDoc( "TestForm" ).WaitProperty "ready", true, 60000 ' Wait for event processing complete
If DataTable("boolValidates", dtLocalSheet) = "TRUE" Then
     If( GetPart5().Exist ) Then
          ' A: Checkpoint Succeeds: Validation was successful
     Else
          ' B: Checkpoint fails: Validation failed
     Endif
Else
     If( GetPart5().Exist ) Then
          ' C: Checkpoint Fails: Validation was unexpected
     Else
           ' D: Checkpoint Succeeds: Validation failed as expected
     Endif
Endif
Unfortunately it appears that XfaSubForm.Exist always returns TRUE. In other QTP testing domains (eg "Exist Property (WinObject)" in QTP Help), the documented behaviour of the Exist property is to be true if the desired test object can be found in the application-under-test. Typically this means that when the script tries to access an XFA widget which doesn't exist (even something like GetPart5().getROProperty("visible") ), the script stops and thinks for a minute or so, and eventually produces a test error that the object doesn't exist then muddles onward. It is the "stops and thinks for a minute or so" which frustrates me, since these are delays which I am trying to avoid.
Another possible angle I looked into was counting the subforms under Part 5's parent.
PDFDoc("TestForm").AcroXFAForm("form").AcroXFAForm("form1").RefreshObject
PDFDoc("TestForm").AcroXFAForm("form").AcroXFAForm("form1").AcroXFAForm("sfPart5").Refresh Object
' check to see if there is a 'sfPart5'
Dim MyChildren, i
Set MyChildren = PDFDoc("TestForm").AcroXFAForm("form").AcroXFAForm("form1").ChildObjects
For i=0 to MyChildren.Count - 1
    print i & " name=" & MyChildren(i).GetROProperty("name")
Next
This also seems to fail: Part5 doesn't appear among its parent's children (at least before QTP actually tries to use it).
The PDF Test Toolkit User Guide doesn't specifically mention that Exist or RefreshObject or ChildObjects are implemented, so I can't say AcroQTP isn't working as designed, but if you're looking for suggestions for improvement, I'll vote for fulfilling these parts to the QTP. Please confirm my conclusions that these are not properly implemented, or whether I'm missing something.
In the meantime, do you have any recommendation on how to proceed? My present workaround is to look for a "validation error" windows dialog that indicates Part 5 won't exist, but this won't work in future test scripts.
Cheers,
Brent

That finds customers who have exactly one account at Perryridge.
The assignment is to find customers who have at most one account at Perryridge. You need to include customers with 0 accounts at Perryridge, as well. You could use an outer join, or MINUS, or a NOT IN subquery, or a NOT EXISTS sub-query (as mentioned above) to do that.
Can there be customers who have no accounts at all, at any branch? If so, you'll need to use the customer table in this problem, as well as depositor and account.

Logic of both solution are correct . But Solution 2 gives error in oracle. I want unique construct to work.Sorry, it doesn't in Oracle. I don't know of anything like that in Oracle.
Does "WHERE UNIQUE (SELECT ...)" work in some other database system? Which?
How to do it. Or How can i test for the absence of duplicate tuples ??????
Your Solution 1 is the best way to find customers with exatly 1 account (rather than 0 or 1 accounts) at Perryridge. Is there any reason why you wouldn't want to use it, if you ever needed to find customers with exactly one account there?

Testing for IS NOT NULL with left join tables

Dear Experts,
The query is showing the NULL rows in the query below....
Any ideas, advice please? tx, sandra
This is the sql inspector:
SELECT O100321.FULL_NAME_LFMI, O100321.ID, O100404.ID, O100321.ID_SOURCE
, O100404.NAME, O100321.PERSON_UID, O100404.PERSON_UID, O100404.VISA_TYPE

Hi Everyone,
I am understanding alot of what Michael and Rod wrote.... I am just puzzled over the following:
the query below is left joining the STUDENT table to
HOLD table.
The HOLD table - contains rows for students who have holds on their record.
a student can have more than one hold (health, HIPAA, basic life saving course)
BUT, for this query: I'm only interested that a hold exists, so I'm choosing MAX on hold desc.
Selecting a MAX, helps me, bec. it reduces my join to a 1 to 1 relationship, instead of
1 to many relationship.
Before I posted this thread at all, the LEFT JOIN below testing for IS NOT NULL worked w/o
me having to code IS NOT NULL twice....
Is that because, what's happening "behind the scenes" is that a temporary table containing all max rows is being
created, for which Discoverer has no predefined join instructions, so it's letting me do a LEFT JOIN and have
the IS NOT NULL condition.
I would so appreciate clarification. I have a meeting on Tues, for which I have to explain LEFT JOINS to the user
and how they should create a query. I need to come up with rules.
If I feel "clear", I asked my boss to buy Camtasia videocast software to create a training clip for user to follow.
Also, if any Banner user would like me to email the DIS query to run on their machine, I would be glad to do so.
thx sooo much, Sandra

If I'm in LIghtroom 5, and try to Edit in Photoshop CS6, I always get the following message: "This version of Lightroom may require the Photoshop Camera Raw plug-in version 8.6 for full compatibility." But I have updated to 8.6 and have no remaining updates. How can I fix this?
If I click "Open Anyway" or "Render using Lightroom", I get the following message:
"Adobe Photoshop CS6 cannot be opened because of a problem.
Check with the developer to make sure Adobe Photoshop CS6 works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and OS X."
Please tell me what to do so I can edit from Lightroom to Photoshop.

In Photoshop, if you choose Help - About Plug-in... - Camera Raw, does it say 8.6?
Seems to me there was some hiccup they found in the update process, which prompted this:
Camera Raw updates cannot be applied
I honestly don't know if the problem could apply to 8.6 as well, which is why I asked you to check to make very sure you really got it.

Is there a way (script option, exporter option) to export a .psd/.psb file with nested layersets to another layered .psd file with a flat layer structure for greater compatibility? (i.e. CS6/CC/CC '14 to CS4 or older?)

Just looking for a solution short of having to go in and manually delve through hundreds of layers and reorganize the .psd. There's a lot of vector elements, layer effects and blending modes as well. It'd be nice to see Adobe include an exporter for older Photoshop versions that can take a newer file and regenerate it making whatever necessary changes to maintain compatibility across older Photoshop versions and even for cross-compatibility. I know that's not necessarily in their best interests for additional sales, but it is in the end-user's best interests when they collaborate with others across various file and application formats.

The first problem here is Layer Styles, if I understand what you are trying to do correctly. You can have arbitrarily nested Layer Sets/Groups (each with its own Layer Style) that contain Layers with their own Layer Styles. This means that for a nested layer, you would have to take it's Layer Style and merge it with the containing Group(s) layer styles in the correct order. Then you have to do the same thing with Layer/Vector Masks and whatever else is involved. It's a non-trivial piece of work. It's not intractable, however.
There is also the problem that some parts of the Layer Styles are binary blobs that make merging at the JS level impossible.
If someone has implemented this, I would love to see the implementation.
What you actually need may be a lot less complicated than the general case. If so, you may be able to find someone to help you out.
I wish you luck.

How do I test for the presence of an active open document in Photoshop?

I’m new to Adobe scripting, and one of my first scripts deals with the activeDocument in Photoshop.
If there is no activeDocument, I want to display a message and terminate the script. My efforts
so far have been met with frustration. While developing the script in ExtendScript Toolkit,
I used the test expression "activeDocument in app", and everything worked as expected. And when I installed the script
in the Photoshop scripts folder and ran it from Photoshop with a document open, it also worked.
But when I ran the script from Photoshop with no document open, it failed.
Moreover, after that,the script failed when I tried to run it in ESTK.
I did some testing and found that my test expression, "activeDocument in app"
was returning true, even though no document was open.
Still in ESTK, I replaced the “app” with ”Application” in the test expression. That worked when
I stepped through the script. But when I tried to run it without stopping, it stopped at the
test expression, and displayed the error message, “Application is undefined.”
So how do I test for the presence of an open document in Photoshop ??

After posting this, I discovered the Photoshop Scripting Forum, and I found my answer there.—
I should have used “app.Documents.length” as my test expression.
