Using keyword dynamic before a class

Hi ,
I have seen some examples on to Flex , where when creating a ValueObject with ActionScript , they specify the word dynamic before
the class .
For example see the below code .
public dynamic class Employee
private var name:String ;
private var age:String ;
public function Employee()
Thank you .

So your question probably is what the dynamic keyword does?

Flash Player use to execute the main class entry point before rendering. Now it does not

Adobe Flash Player use to execute the main class entry point before rendering the first frame. Now using the latest browsers and Flash Player 11.8 (11.8.800.94, or 11.8.800.97 for Chrome).
With one of our swf apps, there are visual display objects on the first frame of the timeline. When the main class constructor is executed, those display objects are set to visible = false. So previously those display objects were never displayed because the first frame did not render until after the main class code was ran.
Now when we browse to the our website, we find that those display objects are visible for a split moment of time (such as a quarter of a second).
It appears that this may be a bug. We are wondering this could be new behavior based on loading/unloading the swf to optimize CPU usage and that Flash Player is taking a snapshot of the internal state of the first frame and displaying the cached snapshot before it actually loads.
So...Chris (or other Adobe representative), is Flash Player supposed to be rendering the display before any code executes it runs the main class?

Not that I'm aware of. If this is something that just started with 11.8, then we could be running into some sort of bug injection. Could you please open a new bug report on this over at bugbase.adobe.com? When adding the bug, please include sample code, application or URL so we can quickly test this out internally. If you'd like to keep this private, feel free to email the attachment to me directly ([email protected]).
Once added, please post back with the bug number and we'll investigate from there.

Dynamic Java bean classes for XSD using JAVA (not any external batch or sh)

Hi,
How can we generate dynamic Java bean classes for XSD (dynamically support All XSD at runtime)?
Note: - Through java code via only needs to generate this process. (Not using any xjc.bat or xjc.sh from JAXB).
Thanks

Pretty sure you can't. Probably can do a lot of them with years of work.
And can probably can do a resonable subset suitable for the business at hand with only a moderate effort.
Note: - Through java code via only needs to generate this process. (Not using any xjc.bat or xjc.sh from JAXB).The Sun jdk, not jre, comes with the java compiler as part of it. You can create in memory class (I believe in memory) based on java code you create.
I believe BCEL alllows the same thing (in memory) but you start with byte codes.
You could just create a dynamic meta data solution as well, via maps and generic methods. Not as fast though.

Why do we use only dynamic class loading for JDBC drivers

Hi,
My JDBC experience is that we always use dynamic class loader for drivers.
If we have a well defined package from a vendor, why do we use this dynamic class loading feature for drivers??

So the thing which processes the configuration file has no idea ahead of time which driver or drivers it will support, so it is not coded specifically for any. So it loads the driver by reflection, since it is given the class name as a string it can use with the reflection API.

Tutorial Announcement .:: Searching News Using Keywords ::.

hello friends
Today i made this new tutorial about searching database using "KEYWORDS", searching by keywords will give you the ability to search through many tables in your database, even in one or more fields in the same table.
when a searcher type a word, or even complete phrase, the results will be specified to this word or phrase.
For example if you searched about the word "News", and it mentioned in the news title and news content in tow records, these two records will appear in the search results.
Results,,, results will be something very advanced, amazing, you can say it`s 70% of MX SiteSearch options.
Also i included small script that will be very helpful showing the full details page URL dynamically, specially in the results page, this script automatically detecting the Host name, Site name, so it will be very easy to show the full path to the keyword results details page.
This tutorial will considered as a part of the "news_system" tutorial, and the search application will be included to the news system for more convenient for the reader...
Requirements:
- we will create 2 pages:
1- search.php "the search form".
2- results.php "the results page".
- Note:
* The search page will included with the entire news system script as an external file, don`t put anything else in this page except the search form, and it will included within the head section.

Masking? Rotsoscoping? I can think of a million ways to create separated layers or mattes and then duplicate the layer and invert the masks/ matte, but if you never have used that stuff before, you will hard-crash on concrete and not get very far, I'm afraid. It takes at least a bit of practice to produce a clean matte. As a palce to start you may get by suing the Rotobrush and see, if it produces clean enough edges, but if not, it's proably better to scrap the idea before eitehr ending up with a bad result or not meeting your deadline...

How to use keywords in a correct way for Acrobat Pro AND Spotlight

When I enter keywords in a PDF using CMD-D in Acrobat Professional I also want to find those keywords via OS X Spotlight. At the same time I to be able to use keywords when I enter keywords in PDFs using Preview.app.
What's the path to do this, and how do these three applications work together to provide a consistent search. I also need to know the details like do I enter keywords in Acrobat with komma or without, with a space before the komma or not etc.
The goal is to be able to have a constistant, compatible workflow for keywords/tags in PDFs using Acrobat, prevoew.app, and other applications; in order to manage large amounts of PDF files.

Hello Joao,
Thank you for your answers. I hope I can ask some more of your time because it is not totally clear yet.
I tried your suggestion to change the stroke width. This has no effect, other than the stroke width, the curves stay filled. It would be nice to show this in a picture... And I just noticed that I had the arguments wrong in my example (been playing around with it too much), the null and green should be the other way round. But also this did not make any difference. Specifying the fill color with the same color as the background color of the map is a workaround though.
Adding the theme_name to the feature attributes is an option, but would that be possible with predefined themes? At the moment we have all the theme definitions in the database.
The most important question however is how do I draw a single feature, based on some condition. The only method I can find in the MapViewer api is drawLiveFeatures with no feature args which "Draws all the live features that are returned to this client from MapViewer". I must be overlooking something.
Thanks again very much for your help,
Ida

Dynamically loading a class that is part of a larger loaded package

I am dynamically loading a class that is part of a large package, much of which is loaded at startup. The code directly references protected variables in the parts of the package that is loaded by the default class loader. Attempting to access these protected variables gives an access error when the class is dynamically loaded that doesnt occur when the class is loaded at startup.
Is there a way to make this work?

To answer my own question -- no
A reference from http://access1.sun.com/techarticles/DR-article.html says:
The use of Dynamic Class Reloading can introduce problems when classes that are being dynamically reloaded make calls to non-public methods of helper classes that are in the same package. Such calls are likely to cause a java.lang.IllegalAccesserror to be thrown. This is because a class that is dynamically reloaded is loaded by a different classloader than the one used to load the helper classes. Classes that appear to be in the same package are effectively in different packages when loaded by different classloaders. If class com.myapp.MyServlet is loaded by one classloader and an instance of it tries to call a non-public method of an instance of class com.myapp.Helper loaded by a different classloader, the call will fail because the two classes are in different packages.
So not being able to access non-private variables in this scenario is the way it works.

Can I use keywords in slideshow?

I am trying to figure out a good way to organize my photos. Some are slides and things I have scanned in, so I use "description" to put a code that lets me know where to find the photo if I need to look it up. I use "title" for what the photo is about (ex-6th birthday party), and use the "date" & "places" to keep those items. I use the "keyword" to keep who is in the photo, and would like to be able to display that on the photos in a slideshow...any way?
If you have any better organizational ideas, I'm open to hearing about them, but I have over 23,000 to fix!
Thanks so much!

I use the "keyword" to keep who is in the photo, and would like to be able to display that on the photos in a slideshow...any way?
No there isn’t I’m afraid. You can show titles, descriptions, titles and description, dates and places but not keywords. You might be best to use the Description box for the names.
so I use "description" to put a code that lets me know where to find the photo if I need to look it up.
Code? Have a look at the possibilities for creating a Smart Album. You can search on all of those and compounds of those too.
My organisation is based heavily around keywords:
I use Events simply as big buckets of Photos: Spring 08, July - Nov 06 are typical Events in my Library. I use keywords and Smart Albums exensively. I title the pics broadly.
I keyword on a
Who
What
Where basis (The When is in the photos's Exif metadata). I also rate the pics on a 1 - 5 star basis.
Using this system I can find pretty much find any pic in my 20k library in a couple of seconds.
So, for example, I have a batch of pics titled 'Seattle 08' and a typical keywording might include: John, Anne, Landscape, mountain, trees, snow. With a rating included it's so very easy to find the best pics we took at Mount Rainier.
File -> New Smart Album
set it to 'All"
title contains Seattle
keyword is mountain
keyword is snow
rating is 5 stars
Or, want a chronological album of John from birth to today?
New Smart Album
Keyword is John
Set the View options to Sort By Date Ascending
Want only the best pics?
add Rating is greater than 4 stars
The best thing about this system is that it's dynamic. If I add 50 more pics of John to the Library tomorrow, as I keyword and rate them they are added to the Smart Album.
Keywording takes time to set up, there's no doubt about it. I use Keyword Manager as it's much more powerful than the inbuilt system, and adds the possibility of nested keywords. So, for instance, if I add John to a photo it also adds 'Family'. Now I can add many keywords to a pic quickly.
In the end, organisation is about finding the pics. The point is to make locating that pic or batch of pics findable fast. This system works for me.

Using a dynamic page in an enclosure url tag.

I am trying to use a dynamic page (e.g. asp, jsp, .cfm) to stream content to itunes as part of a podcast.
So... the ASP file opens an mp3 file on the server-side, and sends it in binary format down to itunes. I setup the correct file type in the header (e.g. application/octet-stream) in the , but it does not show up in the podcast (everything else does).
The question is, if itunes sees something other than "mp3, m4a, m4b, m4p, etc." in the <enclosure url> tag, is it just rejecting it based on the name?
If I just take the URL that is in the enclosure and paste it in a browser, the file comes up fine with no dialog, etc., it just streams to the browser which invokes itunes which plays it.
But again, the podcast is not loading it.
Any help appreciated.
Scott.

I don't know anything about asp or javareg.
In Java, if classes are in a jar file, the jar file must be specified explicitly in the classpath, not just the directory containing the jar file. Maybe you already know this, but worth a shot.

Re: [iPlanet-JATO] Re: Use Of models in utility classes - Pease don't forget about the regular expression potential

Namburi,
When you said you used the Reg Exp tool, did you use it only as
preconfigured by the iMT migrate application wizard?
Because the default configuration of the regular expression tool will only
target the files in your ND project directories. If you wish to target
classes outside of the normal directory scope, you have to either modify the
"Source Directory" property OR create another instance of the regular
expression tool. See the "Tool" menu in the iMT to create additional tool
instances which can each be configured to target different sets of files
using different sets of rules.
Usually, I utilize 3 different sets of rules files on a given migration:
spider2jato.xml
these are the generic conversion rules (but includes the optimized rules for
ViewBean and Model based code, i.e. these rules do not utilize the
RequestManager since it is not needed for code running inside the ViewBean
or Model classes)
I run these rules against all files.
See the file download section of this forum for periodic updates to these
rules.
nonProjectFileRules.xml
these include rules that add the necessary
RequestManager.getRequestContext(). etc prefixes to many of the common
calls.
I run these rules against user module and any other classes that do not are
not ModuleServlet, ContainerView, or Model classes.
appXRules.xml
these rules include application specific changes that I discover while
working on the project. A common thing here is changing import statements
(since the migration tool moves ND project code into different jato
packaging structure, you sometime need to adjust imports in non-project
classes that previously imported ND project specific packages)
So you see, you are not limited to one set of rules at all. Just be careful
to keep track of your backups (the regexp tool provides several options in
its Expert Properties related to back up strategies).

We would certainly incorporate this to ease our migration.

Great response. By the way, the Regular Expression Tool uses thePerl5 RE
syntax as implemented by Apache OROMatcher. If you're doing lotsof these
sorts of migration changes manually, you should definitely buy theO'Reilly
book "Mastering Regular Expressions" and generate some rules toautomate the
conversion. Although they are definitely confusing at first,regular
expressions are fairly easy to understand with some documentation,and are
superbly effective at tackling this kind of migration task.

Subject: Re: [iPlanet-JATO] Use Of models in utility classes -Pease don't

Also, (and Matt's document may mention this)
Please bear in mind that this statement is not totally correct:
Since the migration tool does not do much of conversion for
these
utilities we have to do manually.Remember, the iMT is a SUITE of tools. There is the extractiontool, and
the translation tool, and the regular expression tool, and severalother
smaller tools (like the jar and compilation tools). It is correctto state
that the extraction and translation tools only significantlyconvert the
primary ND project objects (the pages, the data objects, and theproject
classes). The extraction and translation tools do minimumtranslation of the
User Module objects (i.e. they repackage the user module classes inthe new
jato module packages). It is correct that for all other utilityclasses
which are not formally part of the ND project, the extraction and
translation tools do not perform any migration.
However, the regular expression tool can "migrate" any arbitrary
file
(utility classes etc) to the degree that the regular expressionrules
correlate to the code present in the arbitrary file. So first andforemost,
if you have alot of spider code in your non-project classes youshould
consider using the regular expression tool and if warranted adding
additional rules to reduce the amount of manual adjustments thatneed to be
made. I can stress this enough. We can even help you write theregular
expression rules if you simply identify the code pattern you wish to
convert. Just because there is not already a regular expressionrule to
match your need does not mean it can't be written. We have notnearly
exhausted the possibilities.
For example if you say, we need to convert
CSpider.getDataObject("X");
To
RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(XModel.class);
Maybe we or somebody else in the list can help write that regularexpression if it has not already been written. For instance in thelast
updated spider2jato.xml file there is already aCSpider.getCommonPage("X")
rule:

<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getPage[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getPage[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-match>
<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[getViewBean($1ViewBean.class]]>
</mapping-rule-substitute>
</mapping-rule-replacement>
</mapping-rule>
Following this example a getDataObject to getModel would look
like this:
<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getDataObject[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getDataObject[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-match>
<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[getModel($1Model.class]]>
</mapping-rule-substitute>
</mapping-rule-replacement>
</mapping-rule>
In fact, one migration developer already wrote that rule andsubmitted it
for inclusion in the basic set. I will post another upgrade to thebasic
regular expression rule set, look for a "file uploaded" posting.Also,
please consider contributing any additional generic rules that youhave
written for inclusion in the basic set.
Please not, that in some cases (Utility classes in particular)
the rule
application may be more effective as TWO sequention rules ratherthan one
monolithic rule. Again using the example above, it will convert
CSpider.getDataObject("Foo");
To
getModel(FooModel.class);
Now that is the most effective conversion for that code if that
code is in
a page or data object class file. But if that code is in a Utilityclass you
really want:
>
RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(FooModel.class
So to go from
getModel(FooModel.class);
To
RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(FooModel.class
You would apply a second rule AND you would ONLY run this rule
against
your utility classes so that you would not otherwise affect yourViewBean
and Model classes which are completely fine with the simplegetModel call.
<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[getModel$]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>

<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(]]>
</mapping-rule-substitute>
</mapping-rule-replacement>
</mapping-rule>
A similer rule can be applied to getSession and other CSpider APIcalls.

Namburi,
I will post a document to the group site this evening which has
the
details
on various tactics of migrating these type of utilities.
Essentially,
you
either need to convert these utilities to Models themselves or
keep the
utilities as is and simply use the
RequestManager.getRequestContext.getModelManager().getModel()
to statically access Models.
For CSpSelect.executeImmediate() I have an example of customhelper
method
as a replacement whicch uses JDBC results instead of
CSpDBResult.

Subject: [iPlanet-JATO] Use Of models in utility classes
Hi All,
In the present ND project we have lots of utility classes.
These
classes in diffrent directory. Not part of nd pages.
In these classes we access the dataobjects and do themanipulations.
So we access dataobjects directly like
CSpider.getDataObject("do....");
and then execute it.
Since the migration tool does not do much of conversion forthese
utilities we have to do manually.
My question is Can we access the the models in the postmigration
sameway or do we need requestContext?
We have lots of utility classes which are DataObjectintensive. Can
someone suggest a better way to migrate this kind of code.
Thanks

Namburi,
When you said you used the Reg Exp tool, did you use it only as
preconfigured by the iMT migrate application wizard?
Because the default configuration of the regular expression tool will only
target the files in your ND project directories. If you wish to target
classes outside of the normal directory scope, you have to either modify the
"Source Directory" property OR create another instance of the regular
expression tool. See the "Tool" menu in the iMT to create additional tool
instances which can each be configured to target different sets of files
using different sets of rules.
Usually, I utilize 3 different sets of rules files on a given migration:
spider2jato.xml
these are the generic conversion rules (but includes the optimized rules for
ViewBean and Model based code, i.e. these rules do not utilize the
RequestManager since it is not needed for code running inside the ViewBean
or Model classes)
I run these rules against all files.
See the file download section of this forum for periodic updates to these
rules.
nonProjectFileRules.xml
these include rules that add the necessary
RequestManager.getRequestContext(). etc prefixes to many of the common
calls.
I run these rules against user module and any other classes that do not are
not ModuleServlet, ContainerView, or Model classes.
appXRules.xml
these rules include application specific changes that I discover while
working on the project. A common thing here is changing import statements
(since the migration tool moves ND project code into different jato
packaging structure, you sometime need to adjust imports in non-project
classes that previously imported ND project specific packages)
So you see, you are not limited to one set of rules at all. Just be careful
to keep track of your backups (the regexp tool provides several options in
its Expert Properties related to back up strategies).

Thanks Matt, Mike, Todd
This is a great input for our migration. Though we used the existing
Regular Expression Mapping tool, we did not change this to meet our
own needs as mentioned by Mike.
We would certainly incorporate this to ease our migration.

Great response. By the way, the Regular Expression Tool uses thePerl5 RE
syntax as implemented by Apache OROMatcher. If you're doing lotsof these
sorts of migration changes manually, you should definitely buy theO'Reilly
book "Mastering Regular Expressions" and generate some rules toautomate the
conversion. Although they are definitely confusing at first,regular
expressions are fairly easy to understand with some documentation,and are
superbly effective at tackling this kind of migration task.

Also, (and Matt's document may mention this)
Please bear in mind that this statement is not totally correct:
Since the migration tool does not do much of conversion for
these
utilities we have to do manually.Remember, the iMT is a SUITE of tools. There is the extractiontool, and
the translation tool, and the regular expression tool, and severalother
smaller tools (like the jar and compilation tools). It is correctto state
that the extraction and translation tools only significantlyconvert the
primary ND project objects (the pages, the data objects, and theproject
classes). The extraction and translation tools do minimumtranslation of the
User Module objects (i.e. they repackage the user module classes inthe new
jato module packages). It is correct that for all other utilityclasses
which are not formally part of the ND project, the extraction and
translation tools do not perform any migration.
However, the regular expression tool can "migrate" any arbitrary
file
(utility classes etc) to the degree that the regular expressionrules
correlate to the code present in the arbitrary file. So first andforemost,
if you have alot of spider code in your non-project classes youshould
consider using the regular expression tool and if warranted adding
additional rules to reduce the amount of manual adjustments thatneed to be
made. I can stress this enough. We can even help you write theregular
expression rules if you simply identify the code pattern you wish to
convert. Just because there is not already a regular expressionrule to
match your need does not mean it can't be written. We have notnearly
exhausted the possibilities.
For example if you say, we need to convert
CSpider.getDataObject("X");
To
RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(XModel.class);
Maybe we or somebody else in the list can help write that regularexpression if it has not already been written. For instance in thelast
updated spider2jato.xml file there is already aCSpider.getCommonPage("X")
rule:

<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getPage[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getPage[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-match>
<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[getViewBean($1ViewBean.class]]>
</mapping-rule-substitute>
</mapping-rule-replacement>
</mapping-rule>
Following this example a getDataObject to getModel would look
like this:
<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getDataObject[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getDataObject[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-match>
<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[getModel($1Model.class]]>
</mapping-rule-substitute>
</mapping-rule-replacement>
</mapping-rule>
In fact, one migration developer already wrote that rule andsubmitted it
for inclusion in the basic set. I will post another upgrade to thebasic
regular expression rule set, look for a "file uploaded" posting.Also,
please consider contributing any additional generic rules that youhave
written for inclusion in the basic set.
Please not, that in some cases (Utility classes in particular)
the rule
application may be more effective as TWO sequention rules ratherthan one
monolithic rule. Again using the example above, it will convert
CSpider.getDataObject("Foo");
To
getModel(FooModel.class);
Now that is the most effective conversion for that code if that
code is in
a page or data object class file. But if that code is in a Utilityclass you
really want:
>
RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(FooModel.class
So to go from
getModel(FooModel.class);
To
RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(FooModel.class
You would apply a second rule AND you would ONLY run this rule
against
your utility classes so that you would not otherwise affect yourViewBean
and Model classes which are completely fine with the simplegetModel call.
<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[getModel$]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>
<![CDATA[getModel\(]]>
</mapping-rule-match>
<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(]]>
</mapping-rule-substitute>
</mapping-rule-replacement>
</mapping-rule>
A similer rule can be applied to getSession and other CSpider APIcalls.
For instance here is the rule for converting getSession calls toleverage
the RequestManager.
<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[getSession\($\.]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>
<![CDATA[getSession\.]]>
</mapping-rule-match>
<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[RequestManager.getSession().]]>
</mapping-rule-substitute>
</mapping-rule-replacement>
</mapping-rule>

Re: [iPlanet-JATO] Use Of models in utility classes

Hi Matt,
Sounds like some of the stuff we need to migrate has a lot in common with
Namburi's project.
I would be very keen to get hold of a copy of the 'tactic' document you
mention below, as well as the sample code you mention to replace CspDBResult
stuff with JDBC results.
Thanks in advance,
Phil

I have upgraded my iPhone using IO6. Before doing this operation the advises to me is to back up the phone, which I did using iCloud.
When I tried to restore the back it does not access my password which I have given to restore my password.

if you cant remember the password of your back-up encryption, you can't back it up
You will have to restore as a new phone
