Trouble with Resetting Variables

Hello,
I have created a series of 5 questions with two possible answers - correct and incorrect. I have created a variable for each, RunCorrect and RunIncorrect and have set them with a value of 0. Additionally I created a 3rd variable called EarnedShield. When the user clicks the correct option, RunCorrect is assigned 1 with an expression of RunCorrect = RunCorrect + 1 and EarnedShield is assigned 1. If they click the incorrect option, RunIncorrect is assigned 1. On the following screen, if RunCorrect is great than or equal to 1, a badge is displayed. If RunIncorrect is equal to 1, then a "sorry" message is displayed and if EarnedCorrect is equal to 1 then a "congratulations" message is displayed. When the user click the Next button, RunIncorrect and EarnedShield are Assigned 0 to "reset". This allow me to display a badge for each correct answer and no badge for an incorrect answer.
This works perfectly the first time through the series of questions. However, I need for the user to be able to Try Again after they have been through all 5 questions. Knowing I need to reset the variables, I created an Advanced Action to "reset" them to 0 with Assign RunCorrect with 0, Assign RunIncorrect with 0, and Assign Earned Shield with 0. This is triggered when the user clicks the Try Again button.
However, the variable do not reset.
Below is the actual advanced action I am using to "reset" the variable - executed on click of Try Again button. PS, I have also tried to execute this advance action (minus the Jump to Slide) on Enter of the first slide in the series of question. No luck.
Any help would be appreciated.
I am using version 6.0.1.240.
Thank you,
Susan

When debugging issues with variable values sometimes the only way to see what is going on is to set up text captions that display a readout of the current variable values at any given slide. You can add these captions to Master Slides if using them. Or just add them to the starting slides and set to display for Rest Of Project. Either way, you need to be able to see what the variables are set to at any moment. Then you may find that what you thought was working isn't, and what you thought wasn't working is.

Anyone having same issue as mines please help me put. I am having trouble with resetting my ipad mini.

And how can i exot put of ot from restoring anymore?

This is how you Reset - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

Trouble with session variables

Hello, I am a user of cf for a number of years, but only
lately as of last week have I had the opportunity to work with CF
8.... wow the changes are quite intimidating. But none the less
press on is my thought, so now my trouble. Thing I did was to start
using application.cfc vs application.cfm, as it would appear that
is how things have come to pass. So I looked around and found this
code to set session management:
<cfcomponent output="false" hint="Handles application
level events.">

<cfset THIS.Name = "AppCFC" />
<cfset THIS.ApplicationTimeout = CreateTimeSpan( 0, 0, 60,
0 ) />
<cfset THIS.SessionManagement = true />
<cfset THIS.SetClientCookies = false />
<CFSET request.dsn = "wlaw" />
</cfcomponent>
My problem is that while I can define a session variable on a
page that is not under the SSL cert, my session vars become
undefined once I land on a page under SSL.
Am I missing something? I dont recall this being a problem in
the past. All help is appreciated.
as to setting the var, it is done on an index page which
calls another page in a different directory, but under the same
server,.
<cfset session.ref="foo">
the only changes are that the result page or action page if
you prefer is now under the ssl and the var becomes undefined.
thank you in advance
Mike Dooly

is the object being put in session context serializable.. Also in
          other to avoid any generated classes issues delete all the classes
          whcih weblogic generates as part of deploying the application. That
          should atleast mitigate one explanation for your problem.
          Hope this helps

Trouble with resetting iPad 2 to factory setting without a passcode

Hello,
My mother passed away and I'm trying to reset her iPad2 to factory settings without a passcode so I can give it to my grandmother to use.
I've got iTunes open and the iPad is in recovery mode. However, when I click "Restore iPad", it prompts me to open a file on my laptop. Not sure what it's looking for...
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks!

The following instructions from iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled may help:
Also, be aware that if Activation Lock is enabled, recovery mode will not disable that. iCloud: Activation Lock
Use recovery mode
Follow these steps if you never synced your device with iTunes, if you don't have Find My iPhone set up, or if you can't get to your own computer. You'll need to put your device in recovery mode, which will erase the device and its passcode. Then you'll restore your device as new or from a backup.
Disconnect all cables from your device.
Turn off your device.
Press and hold the Home button. While holding the Home button, connect your device to iTunes. If your device doesn't turn on automatically, turn it on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode.
Click OK, then restore the device.

Having trouble with using variables in functions and after functions..

Morning,
I have simplified this, as it represents the core of what’s I obviously don't know how to do.
Problem:
Say I populate that variable by reading in a list if IP addresses from file, finding the line that matches the hostname and place that string into the $IPAddress variable for use later throughout the script.   I did not run into a significant problem
until I decided to convert the routine of looking up the IP address and populating the variable into a function.   As soon as I made it a function, and called that function, the $IPAddress variable only had the data in it until the function completed.
Once the function had done its work, and had placed the data into the variable, I expected that “new” data to be available after the function had completed..in that variable. But it’s like the $IPAddress variable in the main script is a totally
different data then the variable with the same name that’s used within the function.
So I think this demonstrates some of what’s kicking my butt..
$IPAddress = "This is the wrong data”
Function TestFunction ()
$IPAddress #call to display the contents of the variable at the start of the function.
$IPAddress = Read-Host -Prompt "Please enter the text ‘Goober’"
$IPAddress   #call to display the contents of the variable at the end of the function.
TestFunction
$IPAddress
The output I get is:
This is the wrong data
"Please enter ‘Goober’" : where I enter Goober
Goober
This is the wrong data
Huh?
I had expected:
This is the wrong data
"Please enter ‘Goober’" : where I enter Goober
Goober
Goober
What good is the repeatability of a function if it’s output is lost?

THis seems to work.. IS there any reason NOT to do this?
$Global:IPAddress= "This is the wrong data” #"
Function TestFunction{
    Write-Host $IPAddress-fore green
      $host.ui.RawUI.FlushInputBuffer()
     $Global:IPAddress =
Read-Host -Prompt
"Please enter the text ‘Goober’"
    return$Global:IPAddress
TestFunction
return$Global:IPAddress

Trouble with evaluating variable

I'm having a problem using a variable and evaluating it in a package and created a simple example to see what was happening.
1. Created a project variable; type = numeric
2. Created a package with a couple of steps:
a. First step sets the variable to zero.
b. Next step increments it by 1.
c. Next step evaluates whether the variable is greater than zero.
d. Final step sends me one email message if value > 0; if not it sends me a different message.
When I execute the above package everything works as I would expect. The value of the variable at the end is 1 and I get the email I'm expecting.
I then moved the step that increments the variable (2b) into its own package. I then replaced step 2b with a step to execute the scenario which updates the variable. Now when I run the package I can see that the value of the variable at the end is still 1; however, the process now takes the branch in 2d for when the variable is NOT greater than zero.
Is this just how ODI works or am I missing something? Can you not set a variable in one scenario and then evaluate it from the called scenario? Is it a scope thing? In my example the interfaces/packages/scenarios/viarables are all in the same project.
Thanks.

Actually, each odi SESSION keeps its own variable values.
So, when you execute a child-scenario, you must pass the value of the variable from master package to child scenario.
To do that, you must :
1) enter the name of the variable in the tab called "additionnal variables" of the step
2) put the variable in the child package in DECLARE mode

Trouble with private variables

I have an XML parser running inside a GUI. my problem is that I have the actual parse command inside the actionPerformed method, so that when the user specifies their search conditions, those entities that match those conditions will be the only ones returned from the parse. My problem is that although I have the first thing happening when you hit the search button is to grab the contents of the search fields, the first thing that happens is the XML file is parsed, resulting in a NullPointerException when the parser tries to compare data with the search conditions, which is says are not set. I've already made the strings that will contain the data class-wide variables, but that didn't work. I have found that the variables are set inside the actionPerformed function, but once control leaves that function to the parser, they're no longer set, as if they have been wiped out of scope. any suggestions??

okay, It is a map with a rubber-banding box for selecting latitiude-longitude coordinates. I have, inside the actionPerformed method, a utility that copies the values inside the textfields into String variables. these variables are declared as private members of the class that both of these methods belong to. I have it set up so that it is supposed to pull the value of the textfields into the strings BEFORE it parses the XML file. I even have the parsing of the XML file inside a finally clause and the setting of the variables in the try, so it's supposed to pull in those variables first no matter what, and it still refuses to get the values.

Trouble with float variables

Hello!
I'm taking my first java class, and having some trouble. Our assignment is to "change your program so the variables you used to represent the x & y coordinates are declared as the float data type and change their default values to floats. Use the cast operator in your program so your program compiles and the washing maching displays on the screen."
But, when I changed the variables from "int xval=150" to floats, it won't compile. Anybody have any thoughts? Here's my code:
public class applet1 extends Applet {
public void paint ( Graphics g ) {
float xval=150.0f;
float yval=150.0f;
g.drawString ("Pete", 10, 10 );
g.drawString ("Assignment3 September 18, 2002", 10, 25 );
g.setColor(Color.white);
g.fillRect(xval - 150,yval - 150,350,350);
g.setColor(Color.black);
g.drawRect(xval-150,yval - 150,350,350);
g.drawLine(xval - 150,yval - 120,xval + 200,yval - 120);
g.fillOval(xval,yval - 145,20,20);
g.fillOval(xval - 105,yval - 145,20,20);
g.fillOval(xval + 100,yval - 145,20,20);
g.setColor(Color.lightGray);
g.fillOval(xval - 100,yval - 100,250,250);
g.setColor(Color.black);
g.drawOval(xval - 100,yval - 100,250,250);
g.setColor(Color.white);
g.fillOval(xval - 90,yval - 90,230,230);
g.setColor(Color.black);
g.drawOval(xval - 90,yval - 90,230,230);
g.setColor(Color.gray);
g.fillRect(xval + 170,yval - 110,15,25);
g.setColor(Color.black);
g.drawRect(xval + 170,yval - 110,15,25);
g.drawString ("Whirlpool", xval - 10, yval - 105 );

You can't use floats when the method requires ints; cast is needed.

Trouble with date variables

I have an Oracle Source database and a SQL Server Target database. I need to do the following:
1. Get Max Date from target SQL Server table and assign to a variable
2. Get Max Date from source Oracle table and assign to a variable
3. Create a filter on Oracle source table that includes the statement "Prod_Date >= #Target_Max_Date - #Source_Max_Date"
Variables are Global and are of type "date". My test using one or both variables returne the error: "ORA-00911: invalid character". I know if I write a sub-query to test this in TOAD it works (ie: where Prod_Date <= (select max(Prod_Date)...."
Prod_Date is obviously type "Date".
Suggestions anyone?

Where in operator do I check the format of the date?
Also, I have tried using the following formatting:
Prod_Date >= Prod_Date - ('#FDC_WELL_PROD_EST_Max_Date' - '#Well_Prod_Daily_Max_Date') - 45
Result: ORA-01722: invalid number
A date is a number, so any ideas why the variable is being considered a number?
and
Prod_Date >= Prod_Date - (TO_DATE('#FDC_WELL_PROD_EST_Max_Date','DDMMYYYY') - TO_DATE('#Well_Prod_Daily_Max_Date','DDMMYYYY')) - 45
Result: ORA=-01858: a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected.
In this scenario, it would seem we are trying to convert a date to a date?
Appreciate your responses.

Trouble with Environmental Variables

I am having a heck of a time setting the path varialble for J2skd1.4.0. I am using XP home edition and this is the path %SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adaptec Shared\System;c:\j2sdk1.4.0\bin. Is that correct? Thanks in advance for the assistance. I should say that I have rebooted after attempting to update the path, and the java text files are in the same root directory as j2sdk1.4.

What happens when I try to run javac is that I get the message: 'javac' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. I have not set the classpath yet, but in the past the program seemed to work without it.

A little bit of help with Bind variables please

Hi,
I am having a bit of trouble with bind variables I have been looking at the Dev guide and the forum to try and achieve this and it is still not happening for me, could anybody please help or point me in the right direction:
I have created a simple PersonVO with the basic query:
Select distinct full_name from xxml_people where person_id = :1
In the PersonVOImpl.java I have added the method:
public void initQuery(String personId)
Number person = null;
try
person = new Number(personId);
catch
(Exception e){}
setWhereClauseParam(1,person);
executeQuery();
Then in the PersonAM I have added the method:
public void initPersonQuery(String personId)
getPersonVO1().initQuery(personId);
I then call this method in my processRequest section of my page controller:
PersonAMImpl am = (PersonAMImpl) pageContext.getRootApplicationModule();
String personId = "581";
am.initPersonQuery(personId);
When I try and run this I get the error:
oracle.apps.fnd.framework.OAException: oracle.jbo.SQLStmtException: JBO-27122: SQL error during statement preparation. Statement: SELECT distinct full_name from xxml_absence_calendar where person_id = :1
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01006: bind variable does not exist
Am I binding the variables correctly? Or am I making some stupid mistake?
I am ultimately looking to create a messageChoice where the logged in user will see a list of all organisations underneath him and the one level above. I plan to do this by passing the User’s Organisation name into a VO query using the organisation as a Bind Variable. I think once I have worked out how to bind variables this should be straight forward.
Many Thanks

Even though the parameter binding values may be same, you should never use the positional param more than once. So always go for the format
select distinct full_name from xxml_people where supervisor_id = :1
UNION
select distinct full_name from xxml_people where person_id = :2

If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
Open iTunes.
Select your Apple TV in the Source list, and then click Restore.
