The .length()

hi in some programs when i use .length is need the braces while in some it works without braces. just i want to know is there a difference between the length and the length()

I'm looking through the JLS now and all I can find is
the "Arrays" class. Is this the one you are talking
about or is there actually an "arrays" class?http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/third_edition/html/arrays.html#64347
There is an "array type" in the JLS. There's an java.lang.reflect.Array class, a java.util.Arrays class and a java.sql.Array interface... all for different purposes, and the one with the length field is the array type.

How do i find the length of a string??

trying to use the substring, I know the beginIndex (in my case 10), but the string will vary in size and so i need to find the last character and set it as the endIndex, how do i do this?
public String substring(int beginIndex,
int endIndex)Returns a new string that is a substring of this string. The substring begins at the specified beginIndex and extends to the character at index endIndex - 1. Thus the length of the substring is endIndex-beginIndex.
Examples:
"hamburger".substring(4, 8) returns "urge"
"smiles".substring(1, 5) returns "mile"
Parameters:
beginIndex - the beginning index, inclusive.
endIndex - the ending index, exclusive.
Returns:
the specified substring.

Hi
To substring the string where u know the begin index and want to extract till the end use the following function from the String class of the java.lang package
String substring(int beginindex);
String test = "Hello";
String xx = test.substring(1);
The Value stored in xx will be ello
This is in case u need till the end of the String
If wanna skip the last character u can
use
String substring(int beginindex,int endindex);
String test = "Hello";
String xx = test.substring(1,test.length()-1);
The Value stored in xx will be ell

How is the length of a string calculated in Java? and JavaScript?

Hi all,
Do any of you know how the length of a string is being calculated in Java and JavaScript? For example, a regular char is just counted as 1 char, but sometimes other chars such as CR, LF, and CR LF are counted as two. I know there are differences in the way Java and JavaScript calculate the length of a string, but I can't find any sort of "rules" on those anywhere online.
Thanks,

What's Unicode 4 got to do with it? 1 characteris 1
character is 1 character.
strings now contain (and Java chars also) is
UTF-16 code units rather than Unicode characters
or
code points. Unicode characters outside the BMPare
encoded in Java as two or more code units. So it would seem that in some cases, a single
"character" on the screen, will require two charsto
represent it.So... you're saying that String.length() doesn't
account for that? That sux. I don't know. I'm just making infrerences (==WAGs) based on what DrClap said.
I assume it would return the number of chars in the array, rather than the number of symbols (glyphs?) this translates into. But I might have it bass ackwards.

The length of the password entry field in the BEx Analyser

Hi,
The password is 8 characters in the BW system.
When users changing their newly assigned passwords. When logging into the BEx Analyser, and prompted to change the password, a password entry box is displayed, with an entry field longer then 8 characters. Some users are therefore entering passwords longer then 8 characters. This is fine when they first login, but when they try come back to the system, their logon fails.
Can something be done to restrict the length of the password entry field in the BEx Analyser?
Many Thanks
Jonathan

Hi Jonathan
we are having the same problem - did you find a way to resolve this? I did not find any SAP notes referring to the issue.

The length of UUID key is invalid

I am trying to use the new oracle service registry but when i register a service through the business service control and try to create a datacontrol for it in JDeveloper i get the following error:
DCA-40002: The WSDL document is invalid due to the following reason: java.io.IOException: org.systinet.uddi.InvalidParameterException: The length of UUID key is invalid
Some of the installed sample services are working fine but when i try to register and use my own services i always get this error in JDeveloper.
Has anybody succeeded in generating data controls from jdeveloper for service registry entries?
Kind Regards,
Andre Jochems

I've had a similar problem when trying to create a ws stub. Could this error message be misleading and the real issue is that the xsd referenced in the wsdl was not found ?
(just a thought)

The length of an integer

Hello.
Just for couriosity I'd like to calculate the length of an int and by that I mean return the number of digits.
I know how to do this 'manually', but is there a method somewhere that looks a bit like this:
object.calcInt(47653);//returns 5Thanks in advance

Interesting. Nobody likes the log method even though it is 30% faster.

The length of the recording and exporting truncated

Hi there.
It's my first venture into GarageBand. I have just a few questions.
First, how can I tell the length of my recording without having to listen to the entire session? Dragging the indicator bar in the window to move it along takes a very long time, is there a quicker way to do this?
Second, I have been exporting my files to iTunes to burn CD's. I am seeing that the file get's shortened in the process. It's not just a small clip, but rather edits out over 15 minutes on one file. Any thoughts? I called Apple and they knew nothing.

To determine the length:
- Switch the meter that shows bars and beats to minutes and seconds (by clicking on the clock icon).
- Scroll to the end of the song.
- Click into the timeline's ruler, and the cursor will be taken there, the meter showing the minutes and seconds.
As for the export: Do you see the little purple triangle in the timeline, pointing to the left? That's your End of Song marker. Does it sit at the right position? If not, move it there and try exporting again. And since this little ******* is playing tricks sometimes, a more exact way of exporting is using the circle function and setting the circle section exactly from the beginning to the end of what you want to export.
Oh, and by the way: How long is your recording? If it exceeds 999 bars, then GB will only export until bar 999, although your whole recording is still there.
Come back and tell us what you found out!

The type and the length of the members of the structures

I am making the BC-XAL program.
Reading `XAL_Interface_Documentation_11.pdf', now I succeeded in "Reading All Saved Monitor Sets" and "Reading All Monitors of a Monitor Set". but I can't find the type and the length of the member of the Structure BAPITNDEXT, so I cannot get the Monitoring Tree of a Monitor.

Calculating the length of the longest side of a polygon

If you want to calculate the length of the longest side of a polygon -- for example a rectangle -- how can that be done using the standard geometrical functions of spatial in an oracle 10g2 database?
SDO_LENGHT delivers the outline of the polygon. If have looked at the LRS functions, but could not come up with a combination that delivers me what I am looking for. Any suggestion is appreciated.

What do you see as the longest side?
Is that the longest stretch between 2 consecutive vertices?
If this is the case, this sql could be of help, which could need maybe some optimisation and extension (calculates straigth distance between 2 consecutive vertices).
select id, p_side_nr, p_side, p_side_length
from
select id, p_side_nr, p_side, sdo_geom.sdo_length(p_side, 0.005) p_side_length, max(sdo_geom.sdo_length(p_side, 0.005)) over (partition by id) max_p_side_length
from
select id, p_side_nr,
       sdo_geometry(2002, NULL, NULL,
             SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1,2,1),
             SDO_ORDINATE_ARRAY(startx, starty, endx, endy)
            ) p_side
from
     select
           startp.id, startp.x startx, startp.y starty, startp.v_id p_side_nr, endp.x endx, endp.y endy, endp.v_id
     from
          select s.id, t.id v_id, t.x, t.y
          from your_table_name s, table(sdo_util.getvertices(geometry)) t
          ) startp
          select s.id, t.id v_id, t.x, t.y
          from your_table_name s, table(sdo_util.getvertices(geometry)) t
          ) endp
     where startp.id = endp.id
     and startp.v_id = endp.v_id - 1
) where p_side_length = max_p_side_lengthif you do not need the geometry of that longest side, you could follow Ivan's suggestion as a shortcut by using Pythagoras.

I go to "clip adjustments" and change the length of a photo. It reverts back to original length. I also shorten it by moving the yellow "box" around a specific clip. It still reverts back to original length. Why?

Unable to change the length of field in idoc segment

Dear all,
My requirement is to change the length of a field(Z field) in a segment (Z Segment). I tried the following but in vain
1)Tried to Cancel the release and then change the length of the domain. Unfortunately it is givin an error saying "Error while resetting release of segment ZC9DEMARA01".
I also tried cancelling hte release of extension and then cancelled the release of segment
2) Created a new version, but in new version the earlier fields are diabled. So I am unable to edit.
I have gone through some of the links available in SDN but I could not solve as I am unable to cancel the release in the first step.
[Idoc segment field length changes]
Could you please help me.
Thanks in advance!
regards,
Aravind

Hello Aravind,
I Have created one Segment type with some fields, changed the field length also its working.
just try to cancel the release and change the length of the filed and do it set release again.
Try it .

NEED HELP IN REDUCING THE LENGTH OF QUERY WHICH IS ATTACHED IN A FILE PL_SQ

Hi Everyone,
THANKS FOR POSTING THE REPLIES FOR MY LAST THREAD. THAT REALLY HELPED. I CAME BACK AGAIN BECAUSE I NEED HELP FROM THIS FORUM IN REDUING THE LENGTH OF MY QUERY WHICH I HAD GIVEN BELOW. i DIDN'T HAD THE CHOICE OF ATTACHING A FILE OF MY DATA HERE.ITS VERY HUGE DATA SO I AM NOT ABLE TO PROVIDE ATLEAST SAMPLE DATA BECAUSE THE COLUMNS ARE OVERLAPPING IF I AM PASTING THE DATA HERE. I HOPE IT WILL BE UNDERSTANDABLE. THE QUERY WHICH I WROTE IS TOO LONG AND TAKING HOURS TOGETHER TO RUN AND DISPLAY RESULT. IT WOULD BE A GREAT FAVOUR TO ME IF ANYONE CAN REDUCE THE LINES IN MY QUERY AND MAKE IT RUN FAST....PLEASE I WAS NOT KNOWING THE WAY HOW TO MAKE IT SHORT. IT HAS MANY LOGICS IN IT... :? PLEASE SUGGEST ME IF THERE IS ANY OPTION FOR ATTACHING A FILE SO THAT I CAN SEND MY SAMPLE DATA...

How can I change the length of multiple lines at the same time?

This just seems like it should be a no-brainer, but obviously for me it isn't. I'm trying to change the length of multiple lines, that are at different angles, at the same time, in CS4. Basically, I design the face of dials used for airplane instrument gauges (like RPM, Torque, etc), and they have gradiation marks (lines) located all around, similar what a clock looks like with the hour and minute gradiation marks (lines). Is there a way to select all the lines, that I know are the same length, and change it to a different length, that's accurate to the 1/100th of an inch? It would just be like selecting multiple lines that have all the same stroke, then using the stroke box to change the stroke weight from .025in to .030in.
I've used the transform box to change the 'height' of a line before, but the line has to be at 90 degrees (straight up and down), and that won't work for the lines that are at, say, a 45 degree angle.
I hope i'm explaining this in a way that someone will understand. If not, I can sure try to clarify more, or insert the picture so you could see what i'm talking about.
Thanks for any help you can give!

OK, after fiddling around with everyone's ideas, I think I finally got it. I knew there had to be something with proportions between W and H, but couldn't figure out the math, until Jacob answered with:
"If each line must be strecthed from the inner/outer end, you may select each and use the Transform palette, choosing the right Reference Point, multiplying by the proportion in W or H (1.75/1.5), and Ctrl/Cmd clicking."
Now, I basically did everything above, (but I couldn't figure out what you were talking about with the Ctrl Clicking thing), except after figuring out the right proportion (which ends up being so small you guys would die if I told you the number; the numbers I gave earlier were just an example and much larger than what i'm really working with) I just clicked the little chain next to the W and H boxes to constrain the proportions. I then put the new number (multiplied proportion by whatever was in W) in the W box. The line lengthened perfectly toward the center of the dial, keeping the correct angle!
And Harron-Thanks for the link to Teri's, It is going to help with some things I do, but most of the dials I design don't have equal distances between each gradiation mark, and the blueprints I work off of usually have exactly what distances that the grad. marks are supposed to be. So, after selecting one of my grad marks that is already at it's correct place, I then use the rotate tool and Alt-Clicking the very center of the dial, I can then put in exactly what distance I want the next grad. mark to be at, I hit copy (instead of OK) and there will be a new grad. mark exactly the correct distance from my original. Then if I want to have the 3rd grad. mark I just hit Ctrl-D and it will copy another mark to the next position. I don't know if you necessarily wanted to know all that, but i thought i'd explain why I like doing it that way.
A BIG thanks to everyone! I'm really a AI newbie and am the only one at my company that knows how to use it, so I don't have anyone close to ask stupid questions to. So I appreciate all your help!

How do I extend the length of time my iphone rings before voicemail cuts in? If I need to use a password, how do I access that on my iphone? I'm a new user.

HELP!! My voicemail cuts in after just 15 seconds of ringing, which is rarely long enough for me to answer it. How do I increase the length of time it rings? Can I choose not to have voicemail at all, so my phone can just continue ringing until I answer?
If I need to enter a voicemail password or key, can you tell me step by step because I can't see how to do anything except retrieve and delete voicemail msgs. I'm on O2-UK, if that makes any difference at all. Thank you

Changing the length of a key field in a table

Hi,
I want to increase the length of the field from 2 to 4 in a standard SAP table and deliver it to the customers. This field is a key field in table. This field from this table is also used in view and view clusters.
What is the implication of changing the length to the customers. The customers would have already data in this field and they should not loose any data. Will the existing data for customers remain at length 2 or do they have to do some conversion?
Regards,
Srini.

hi,
The database table can be adjusted to the changed definition in the ABAP Dictionary in three different
ways:
By deleting the database table and creating it again. The table on the database is deleted, the inactive
table is activated in the ABAP Dictionary, and the table is created again on the database. Data
existing in the table is lost.
By changing the database catalog (ALTER TABLE). The definition of the table on the database is
simply changed. Existing data is retained. However, indexes on the table might have to be built again.
By converting the table. This is the most time-consuming way to adjust a structure.
If the table does not contain any data, it is deleted in the database and created again with its new
structure. If data exists in the table, there is an attempt to adjust the structure with ALTER TABLE. If the
database system used is not able to do so, the structure is adjusted by converting the table.
Field 1     Field 2,    Field 3
NUMC,6 CHAR 8    CHAR, 60
Field 1    Field 2       Field 3
NUMC,6 CHAR, 8     CHAR,30
The following example shows the steps necessary during conversion.
Starting situation: Table TAB was changed in the ABAP Dictionary. The length of field 3 was reduced
from 60 to 30 places.
The ABAP Dictionary therefore has an active (field 3 has a length of 60 places) and an inactive (field 3
still has 30 places) version of the table.
The active version of the table was created in the database, which means that field 3 currently has 60
places in the database. A secondary index with the ID A11, which was also created in the database, is
defined for the table in the ABAP Dictionary.
The table already contains data.
Step 1: The table is locked against further structure changes. If the conversion terminates due to an
error, the table remains locked. This lock mechanism prevents further structure changes from being
made before the conversion has been completed correctly. Data could be lost in such a case.
Step 2: The table in the database is renamed. All the indexes on the table are deleted. The name of the
new (temporary) table is defined by the prefix QCM and the table name. The name of the temporary
Step 3: The inactive version of the table is activated in the ABAP Dictionary. The table is created on the
database with its new structure and with the primary index. The structure of the database table is the
same as the structure in the ABAP Dictinary after this step. The database table, however, does not
contain any data.
The system also tries to set a database lock for the table being converted. If the lock is set, application
programs cannot write to the table during the conversion.
The conversion is continued, however, even if the database lock cannot be set. In such a case
application programs can write to the table. Since in such a case not all of the data might have been
loaded back into the table, the table data might be inconsistent.
You should therefore always make sure that no applications access the table being converted
during the conversion process.
Step 4: The data is loaded back from the temporary table (QCM table) to the new table (with MOVECORRESPONDING).
The data exists in the database table and in the temporary table after this step.
When you reduce the size of fields, for example, the extra places are truncated when you reload the
data.
Since the data exists in both the original table and temporary table during the conversion, the storage
requirements increase during the process. You should therefore verify that sufficient space is available in
the corresponding tablespace before converting large tables.
There is a database commit after 16 MB when you copy the data from the QCM table to the original
table. A conversion process therefore needs 16 MB resources in the rollback segment. The existing
database lock is released with the Commit and then requested again before the next data area to be
converted is edited.
When you reduce the size of keys, only one record can be reloaded if there are several records whose
key cannot be distinguished. It is not possible to say which record this will be. In such a case you should
clean up the data of the table before converting.
Step 5: The secondary indexes defined in the ABAP Dictionary for the table are created again.
Step 6: The temporary table (QCM table) is deleted.
Step 7: The lock set at the beginning of the conversion is deleted.
If the conversion terminates, the table remains locked and a restart log is written.
Caution: The data of a table is not consistent during conversion. Programs therefore should not access
the table during conversion. Otherwise a program could for example use incorrect data when reading the
table since not all the records were copied back from the temporary table. Conversions therefore
should not run during production! You must at least deactivate all the applications that use tables to
be converted.
You must clean up terminated conversions. Programs that access the table might otherwise run
incorrectly. In this case you must find out why the conversion terminated (for example overflow of the
corresponding tablespace) and correct it. Then continue the terminated conversion.
Since the data exists in both the original table and temporary table during conversion, the storage
requirements increase during conversion. If the tablespace overflows when you reload the data from the
temporary table, the conversion will terminate. In this case you must extend the tablespace and start the
conversion in the database utility again.
If you shorten the key of a table (for example when you remove or shorten the field length of key fields),
you cannot distinguish between the new keys of existing records of the table. When you reload the data
from the temporary table, only one of these records can be loaded back into the table. It is not possible
to say which record this will be. If you want to copy certain records, you have to clean up the table
before the conversion.
During a conversion, the data is copied back to the database table from the temporary table with the
ABAP statement MOVE-CORRESPONDING. Therefore only those type changes that can be executed
with MOVE-CORRESPONDING are allowed. All other type changes cause the conversion to be
terminated when the data is loaded back into the original table. In this case you have to recreate the old
state prior to conversion. Using database tools, you have to delete the table, rename the QCM table to
its old name, reconstruct the runtime object (in the database utility), set the table structure in the
Dictionary back to its old state and then activate the table.
If a conversion terminates, the lock entry for the table set in the first step is retained. The table can no
longer be edited with the maintenance tools of the ABAP Dictionary (Transaction SE11).
A terminated conversion can be analyzed with the database utility (Transaction SE14) and then
resumed. The database utility provides an analysis tool with which you can find the cause of the error
and the current state of all the tables involved in the conversion.
You can usually find the precise reason for termination in the object log. If the object log does not
provide any information about the cause of the error, you have to analyze the syslog or the short dumps.
If there is a terminated conversion, two options are displayed as pushbuttons in the database utility:
After correcting the error, you can resume the conversion where it terminated with the Continue
adjustment option.
There is also the Unlock table option. This option only deletes the existing lock entry for the table .
You should never choose Unlock table for a terminated conversion if the data only exists in the
temporary table, i.e. if the conversion terminated in steps 3 or 4. table for table TAB is therefore QCMTAB.
Hope this is helpful,Do reward.

Is there a way to change the master text length in FCP? The default length is 10 seconds, which is too long. I can easily adjust the length but I don't want to do it each time, and I don't want to adjust one and then have to copy and paste this length.

Is there a way to change the master text length in FCP? The default length is 10 seconds, which is too long. I can easily adjust the length but I don't want to do it each time, and I don't want to adjust a text clip and then have to copy and paste this each time. Ideally, there should be something in User Preferences but there is not. Thanks.

Maybe some one else can pipe up with a solution, but this would literally take 2 seconds to do for a new project. And you can create a "template project" that includes this "text" clip. Save this project and then to a get info and check "stationary pad." When you double click on this file, fcp will open with a copy of this project and you just need to do a save as.
I've been working with computer editing systems for longer than i can remember and at a certain point you just have to adapt your workflow to the limitations of the software.
