Tools to debug AGAL code for shaders

Hello,
Those last few days I was working on some AGAL code, to create some shaders.
But I sometimes encounter some problems when it comes to debug my code...
Especially to know what is the current value of ft0 or ft0.x, etc.
So, my question is :
Do you know some tools; or tips, to debug your shaders ?
It would be so cool to share about it
I've heard about PIX in this blog post : http://jpauclair.net/2011/03/01/zombietycoon-molehill-session-at-flashgamingsummit/
But It doesn't seem to work with our browser... So bad ! I may be wrong somewhere
Thanks a lot per advance !

You can use PIX fairly easily with Molehill - i'm not sure how to get it working in the web browser, but if you use a standalone player it's easy. Of course, you'll need to be running on a PC and have molehill using the directX9 driver for this to work.
Grab the Unofficial Standalone Player here: http://blog.ascensionsystems.ca/?p=147
Then grab the latest DirectX SDK and fire up PIX for windows. You just need to point it at the standalone player, and configure the command-line argument path to your swf, and you're in business.
Tips on how to use PIX: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee417184(v=vs.85).aspx
You can debug shader code, individual pixels, draw timings, buffer contents, and so much more - very helpful stuff. It's also nice to be able to see what the molehill implementation is doing behind the scenes.

Tool to make easy code for making pictures in java

e.g.
g.drawLine(10,10,50,100)
Is there a simple tool where I can draw a line on a screen and that that tool gives me then the right coordinates to put it in the java code?
Of course this simple line is just an example.
I want to use this to create advanced pictures in a Java applet.
I hope you guys understand what I mean. I'm from Belgium and my English is not very very good.
thx for reading this!

I'm searching just for a more simple tool with interface of Paint for example where I can make pictures. That tool gives than the right code in java.
Just like when you in eg Dreamweaver make a webpage and then gereates the html code.
I'm almost sure this must exist but I can't find a tool like that... :-(

Checking code for SAP USER EXIT

we have enhanced SAP given data-source 2LIS_XX_XXXXX, there are hard coded user exits for this extractor. How to debug the code for enhancements?
I know we enhance data-source in CMOD....SAPLRSAP001 (transactional data)....SAPLRSAP002(attributes)

Hi Monica,
There are many ways to debug the code if you wish to enhance the DataSource. In RSA3 you can do that by clicking Debug mode option. This is already been suggested by Srini.
I would like to give you another way to do so.
If you want to enhance the Transcational data then you need to choose EXIT_SAPLRSAP_001 component of RSAP001 enhancement. It has 4 component for master data( Text, hierarchy...etc).
This is a function module enhancement. If you goto the source code of the function module, you will find an include program i.e. ZXRSAU01. double click on this program which will take you to the body of the program. This is the place where you need to write code.
here you need to write the code as follows.
case i_datasource.
when '2LIS_XX_XXXXX'.
Now here you can set a break point. This can be soft or hardcoded break point if you need to debug.
Better Hardcode it. Write
BREAK-POINT or BREAK username.
Now when you execute the DS through RSA3, The program will stop here. The data extracted from DS will be available in an internal table C_T_DATA. Now you can enhance this by writing code. Again you can debug by pressing F5 or F6. This is as usual the way you debug an ABAP program.
Hope this helps. If you need any further help contact at [email protected]
Give reward point if you're satisfied.
Happy debugging....
cheers,

Debugging source code in Web-Inf

Dear All Java Expert,
I'm using Forte 3.0 and debugging source code for different web application folder. example ..\webapps\APPS1 and ..\webapps\APP2.
Ok, my problem is i was unable to 'share and debug' same servlet file over 2 web application.
Example, a.java located at ..\webapps\APPS1\Web-INF\Classes\a.java and shared by APP2. The problem is when APP2 having problem i need to copy the java file frm APPS1 to APPS2 web-inf folder for debugging.
I'm still new using the IDE debugging features, any eXperience people pls don't be hesitate to reply.

What exactly is the problem?
You want APPS1 and APPS2 to share the same Servlet code?
If so, you need to think through what you are doing. Consider this scenario; I point my web browser to www.wikey.com/APPS1 and the servlet in \webapps\APPS1 returns a response. I point my web browser to www.wikey.com/APPS2 and APPS2 returns a response.
That's what we pretty much expect to happen.
Now let's say you put the code in a file called BOTH. If I point my web browser to www.wikey.com/BOTH, then it launches the servlet named BOTH. That's reasonable. However, if BOTH consists of code from APPS1 and APPS2 in the same class, then the web server has absolutely no idea which block of code to call.
However, you can make it www.wikey.com/BOTH?doRoutine=APPS1 where it will launch the APPS1 specific code. But why bother? Why not just launch APPS1 directly?
So to answer your question, there's no real advantage to having two different URLs point to the same Servlet. Consequently, there's no real advantage to having a debug URL point to to a production URL's Servlet, i.e., no point in sharing code for debugging purposes.
So the question you want to ask is, "Is there a macro in Forte 3.0 that will allow people to make copies of all the source files in one folder, place those copies in another folder AND set up the URL and environments correctly?"
The answer is - not that I'm aware of. If you want such a capability, you should code it yourself. But even in Microsoft Windows, it only takes a few seconds to select the folder and do a cut-and-paste copy, then rename the files.
Incidently, this is totally different than putting common class files in a common directory, modifying the class path, and allowing two separate servlets to import those classes.

Transaction code for debugging

CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHAT IS THE TRANSACTION CODE FOR ABAP PROGRAM

Hi,
As far as I know there is no transaction code to debug, however when you run the transaction SDMO and give the search string as 'DEBUG' this will list the following transactions,
Tcode Transaktionstext
@@D   Debugger -> Documentation
DBG_A Debugger -> ABAP Editor
DBG_B Debugger -> Repository Browser
DBG_S Debugger -> Screen Painter
LAST_ Debugger -> ABAP Editor
PACC PF debugger
STDA Debugger display/control (server)
STDC Debugger output/control
STDU Debugger display/control (user)
Not able to navigate to most of the transactions mentioned here,
Rgds,

Can you share the source code for Customer ToughDay stress test tool?

Hello,
I would like to try Customer ToughDay tool (http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/testing/tough-day.html) for load testing of our author instances of CQ5. While I am able to execute the application, the logging with log4j seems to be configured incorrectly.
Can you share the source code for toughday-5.5.jar? I think it can be a very good starting point for those of us who are new to CQ5 and need to load test it.
Thank you!

Hi,
I don't believe there are any differences between the two versions. But you can check the source code for the Numeric Limit Test in TestStand\Components\NI\StepTypes\CommonSubsteps. But the main part of the step is the Code Module and this bit the users supplies this.
What has prompted this question?

Tools for extracting strings from java code for internationalization

For legacy code with lots and lots of strings what method is typically used to extract strings for internationalization?
Am I right in thinking you couldnt simply grep for strings, it could get pretty complitcated, especially with escape characters, escaped quotes etc.,
-SK

When dealing with legacy code, it is nice to have an application that queries you as it extracts the strings. You have a choice whether to accept the string as a localizable entity or not.
There are several tools that do this...including some IDEs like JBuilder. Although it isn't a fully supported or robust tool, Sun has a utility for extracting strings in Java source files:

Conditional compile code for debug v.s. release

Hi,
Is there a pre-defined symbol (e.g., DEBUG, DEBUG) for conditional compile section of code for debug v.s. release?
Thanks for your reply in advance!

Take a look at TargetConditionals.h, I use TARGETIPHONESIMULATOR a lot.

MSI Big Bang Xpower II did not post - Debug LED Code #67

I need HELP...!
I have a problem my board did not post , did not start and i have the DEBUG LED CODE # 67 displayed.
There is my build
MSI Big Bang Xpower II X79 LGA2011
Intel Core i7 3820 LGA2011 Processor
Corsair Cooling Hydro Series H100 CPU Cooler System LGA2011
G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series memory (F3-12800CL-32GBZL) DDR3 1600 PC3-12800 - CL10-10-10-30 (8192MB X 4) - 32GIG located in DIMM 1-3-5-7
Gigabyte GTX570 OC Edition video card in slot PCI-E2
Western Digital Velociraptor 300GB 2.5" SATA 3.0Gb/s 10,000 RPM
LG BH12LS35 Blu-Ray Writer 12X BD-R 16X
Ultra LSP-750 Power Supply
Cooler Master HAF X EATX Tower Case
When I put the power on, the power supply activated fans and drives spin, all the LEDs on the motherboard light up but nothing appears on the screen.
No video signal at all and the computer stop and restrart every 15 seconds. When these reset occurs there is no beep on the speaker , nothing at all, no flashing screen either, nothing.
The DEBUG LED display a sequence of flashing numbers 19 - 60 - 19- 60 - 67 and stop showing still the number # 67 for about ten seconds and then he reset again.
I carefully followed the instruction manual for the installation, I installed the memory modules in slots 1 3 5 7, i put my video card in slot PCI-E2. all the power wire are connected correctly 1 x 24 pins ATX, 2 x 8 pins ATX, 1 X 6 pins , all the wire from the front panel are correctly connected to the m-connector in JFP1 & 2.
Did i forget something, I don’t know what the debug led code # 67 exactly mean and what i have to do to fix-it
Someone has an idea what is wrong or have any suggestion to solve this issue.
Thank's all for your help.

I followed some advice to remove the memory modules and this is actually caused by the use of memory but you will see I still have a curious bug.
I referred to the instructions manual to the letter for the choice of DIMM SLOT to put the memory module in single, double, triple and quad channels.
If I install 1 memory module in the DIMM SLOT 1 to operate in single channel, everything is normal and the motherboard POST normally and show the SETUP SCREEN.
If I install 2 memory modules in DIMM SLOT 1 & 3 to run in dual channel, everything is normal and the motherboard POST normally and show the SETUP SCREEN.
If I install three memory modules in DIMM SLOT 1 - 3 - 5 to run in triple channel, everything is normal and the motherboard POST normally and show the SETUP SCREEN.
As soon as I install four DIMMs modules mémoiredans SLOT 1 - 3 - 5 - 7 to run in quad channel, the motherboard freezes and does NOT POST and show code 67 on the debug led and has reset itself every 20 seconds.
I tried all my RAM modules alternately in both single channel and everything works normally.
I did the same thing in rotation for both dual and triple channel and everything is still normal with all fourth memory modules individually.
As soon as I put a fourth memory module it freezes and displays the code 67 or L9 dependent side as you look.
So my bug is my motherboard MSI Big Bang Xpower II do not want to work in quad channel.
Do you have any idea where I should look for, is a setting in the BIOS , I have flashed the bios to the latest version V1.5
I included the screenshot of the BIOS to see if you can notice something wrong.
Thank you

How to use Event Tracking Code for Google Analytics in Dreamweaver CS5

I need to track clicks on links that go to an outside website. I've read about "event tracking code". I'm not sure if it's the right tool to use. And if it is, I've spent several hours reading about it and I can't figure out how to use it. It looks like you need to be an expert developer to be able to make sense of all this. I've always been helped when I ask a question here, I'm hoping that someone can help me.
What my client needs is to know what links are being clicked, and how often. Here's the page where I want to do this: Available Homes - Arizona Vacation Home Rentals
I added a code that I created using the tool I found here: General Event Tracking Code for Google Analytics but can't see to be able to make this work. I added this code to the first link called "View it Here" for the top, left house. Here's the code: <a href="http://www.homeaway.com/vacation-rental/p3495538" onClick="ga('send', 'event', { eventCategory: 'clicks', eventAction: 'clicks on homes', eventLabel: 'Clicked'});" target="_blank">View it HERE!</a>
Then I set a Goal in Google Analytics like it said in the instructions but it doesn't seem to work... I would APPRECIATE ANY HELP!
Thanks,
Brigitte

I think you misunderstood what Event Tracking is designed for. This is from Google Help
Tracking Code: Event Tracking - Google Analytics — Google Developers
"Use this to track visitor behavior on your website that is NOT related to a web page visit, such as interaction with a Flash video movie control or any user event that does not trigger a page request."
Clicks on links are page requests. I think for your purposes, you may want the Cross Domain Link Tracking plugin.

OC4J JSP Debugging not working for all the jsps

Hi,
Initially I was not able to debug jsps using Eclipse and OC4J. The jsp debugging started working once I made the below changes:
1) global-web-application.xml is modified
Changed the attribute development="true" in orion-web-app
Added the below init param for the JspServlet
<init-param>
<param-name>debug</param-name>
<param-value>class</param-value>
</init-param>
If the jsps are present in a sub directory under the webcontent none of the breakpoints are working. I am still be able to view the jsp pages on the browser.
Tools: Oracle 10g Application Server Standalone version(10.1.3.5.0), JDK5, Windows XP, Eclipse Indigo
Project Structure:
Test (Eclipse Dynamic Web Project)
-WebContent
Sample.jsp ( Breakpoints are working)
-subF (Folder)
SubSample.jsp (Breakpoints are not working)
-WEB-INF

Debugging worked for http://localhost:8888/Test/Sample.jsp
Debugging not working for http://localhost:8888/Test/subF/SubSample.jsp
Any help is highly appreciated.

This tells there is not enough main memory (not disk space) for the program to run.
- You can look the dump in ST22, it will have suggestions on increasing the ROLLAREA??, you can forward that to Basis.
- Most likely you will not have any more memory to assign so the above may not be feasible. Try to rework your query so it works with less data.

How to get full source code for Oracle ADF?

Hi,
I 'm referring to the following URL http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/html/B25947_01/intro003.htm and it has mentioned that full source for Oracle ADF is available :
"Full source for Oracle ADF is available to supported customers through Oracle Worldwide Support. The full source code for the framework can be an important tool to assisting you in diagnosing problems and in correctly extending the base framework functionality for your needs."
Does anyone know how to obtain such information from Oracle support? Is this from metalink

One possible snag in the process is that you will have some legal paperwork to sign. Depending on your company's policies, this could pose a problem.

[Ann] QR Code for InDesign CS4 and up

Ever needed to create a QR code? There are literally hundreds of free QR code generators on the web, but they all have the same drawbacks:
1. They typically deliver a PNG, either 'click here to download', or you have to drag it somewhere yourself.
2. It's typically an RGB image, so the cautious designer will start up Photoshop to convert it to a monochrome image.
3. .. so you get a file to store somewhere ..
4. ... and after seeing four of them you cannot remember which QR code said what ...
5. .... and, you cannot use such site in a batched environment (well, maybe some people can by building a proper URL, call the website, wait for a response, etc. I bet it's difficult for your average scripter.)
So I had a go on converting one of the existing Javascript solutions -- Patrick Wied's, in case you're curious -- into a construction fit for InDesign. All you have to do is download the zip: http://www.jongware.com/binaries/jw_qrcode.zip -- unpack it, and save the file "QRCode.jsxbin" in your local User Script folder. It ought to be compatible with InDesign CS4 and upwards, for both Mac and Windows.
When it appears in your Script Panel, you can double-click to run and
1. with nothing selected, it prompts for text and error recovery settings, and will place a proper monochrome TIFF bitmap of (approximately) a useful dimension in the center of your current page.
2. with an empty rectangle selected, the new QR code will be placed inside it.
3. with some text selected, the text field will be pre-filled with this.
4. With a QR Code selected which you created earlier using this same tool, the text field will contain the original text, and the quality setting will be retrieved. You can cancel the dialog if you only wanted to know what it said, or change the text or quality.
5. You can call this script from another script to perform batch operations. It accepts two required arguments, and one optional, in this order: text, Error Correction level (1-4), and optionally a destination rectangle to place it in:
app.doScript(new File(app.activeScript.path+'/qrcode.jsxbin'), ScriptLanguage.JAVASCRIPT, ["hello", 1, app.selection[0]], UndoModes.ENTIRE_SCRIPT, "Call QR Code");
6. Since it's a monochrome bitmap TIFF with enough resolution (at its default size it's 200 dpi), you can use the swatches palette to change the white or black parts to another color, or even make one transparent.
7. It's just a small file, and so I decided to always have it automatically embed. That way you can never loose it. The image first has to be created in a temporary file (default location: (Temp)/qrcode.tiff, where (Temp) is your local Temporary Files folder). If this fails for some of you (there always seem to be overly prudent IT professionals who seem to despise users storing files willy-nilly), I'll have to think of something else.
Note: this version only supports plain text mode, not numeric, alphanumeric, or Kanji. Text is converted to UTF-8; for the most common purpose -- web pages -- it should work normally.
Enjoy!
Based entirely on Patrick Wied's implementation of a basic QR Code generator. Patrick Wied dutifully notes
I do not guarantee any resulting QR code generations or detections, use this application at your own risk! - this project is just a study project (non commercial).
and so I advise to always check your generated code using a good QR Code reader.

To give back to community, here is the script to generate QR codes for business cards created by data merge
It reads text frames starting with MECARD:, empties them and places QRcode rotated 15 degrees counterclockwise. Enjoy!
var _d = app.documents[0];
var _allStories = _d.stories;
for(var nx=_allStories.length-1;nx>=0;nx--){
    var _storyAllTextFrames = _allStories[nx].textContainers;
    for(var mx=_storyAllTextFrames.length-1;mx>=0;mx--){
         _storyAllTextFrames[mx].select(); // change page
         if(_storyAllTextFrames[mx].contents.indexOf('MECARD:')==0){
             var obj = app.doScript(new File(app.activeScript.path+'/qrcode.jsxbin'), ScriptLanguage.JAVASCRIPT, [_storyAllTextFrames[mx].contents]);
             _storyAllTextFrames[mx].contents = "";
            var myScaleMatrix = app.transformationMatrices.add({horizontalScaleFactor:.7,
                verticalScaleFactor:.7,counterclockwiseRotationAngle:15});
            obj.transform(CoordinateSpaces.pasteboardCoordinates,AnchorPoint.centerAnchor, myScaleMatrix);
             //obj.move ([_x,_y]);
