Using ZLMAN to create a custom bundle

I am trying to create a customised bundle using the zlman command and would like to import rpm packages currently in the zlm repository into the new bundle.
Is there a way to do this? I can't see anything in the man pages or the net, it only appears to let you add a package but wants a full path to the rpm rather than allowing you to select from the repository

It looks like you are absolutely right.
I also cannot find that zlman option.
So it looks like you are the first that needs it.
We use zlman to create bundles and add packages when we build them in our rpm build environment, but at that time that are always new packages that need top be uploaded. So the bundle-add-package is what we use, but that doesn't help with packages in the repository.
So I would write a enhancement request for it ...

As a workaround, not a nice one of course, you can search for the package in the repository and upload it once again. It should recognize that and create just the package links to the bundle. Not nice, but it seems to be the only option for now.

Using SPML to create a custom end user interface?

We are trying to create a custom end user interface which uses SPML to communicate with our IDM server. The issue we have is whether there is a way to login to IDM from this end user interface as the end user, or at least run the end user functionality such as password changes and authentication question setup as the end user without giving all end users SPML capabilities. Right now we have created a special SPML user account and we have given that user broad capabilities. We are able to change passwords and set questions but the auditing just shows the SPML user as the subject for all these actions.
Thanks,

Is there a way I can use Catalyst to create my custom flex components but make compatible with 3.5

I am new to Catalyst and looking for a way to create components in Catalyst to be compatible with an existing application created in SDK 3.5.
I am working on a project for a client to reskin an existing flex application done in SDK 3.5, but they are not ready to migrate yet to SDK 4.0.
I really want ot use Catalyst to create some custom components for the new style of this existing application, but the problem is the that the spark component architecture and the old version 3.5 are not compatible. Is there a way around this until they are ready to migrate to 4.0 or will I have to create my components in flash and bring them into flashbuilder with a swc this way instead? What would be the best approach for me at this point, please help?

No. Flash Catalyst leverages the new component framework that was introduced in 4.0 (aka Spark). Flex 3.5 and earlier used a framework (referred to as MX or Halo). That framework is incompatible with Flash Catalyst.

Urgent : Help needed in Using Hyperion to create a custom reports

Hi Gurus,
I am new to Bw my requirement is to use Hyperion to create a custom reports based on the functional specification. this report should be Created based on the data in the BW. I mean the data should come from BW.
Can any one give a detailed description about how to create these reports. If you have any documents on what is hyperion and the integration of hyperion to BW can you please forward them to [email protected]
Thank You,
Reddy.

Not sure, But ultimately 'Flat file' may be the common interface for both the environments. So i think BW role may stop after crating the flat file in a specific format..

Best practice using clusters to create queue/notifier/bundles ?

I have in a block diagram a queue, notifier and several instances of bundle cluster
that all use the same data structure.   There is a cluster typedef for the data structure.
Of course, each of these objects (define queue, define notifier, bundle)
need to know how the cluster is defined.
What is considered best practice?
1) create a dummy instance of the cluster everywhere the data structure
definition is needed (and hide them all on the FP)
2) create only one instance and wire it to all the places it is needed
   But there is no data flow on this wire -- it's only the cluster *definition*
   that is being used, so this would seem to clutter up the BD unnecessarily.
3) Create only one control instance of the cluster and use local variables
    everywhere else the cluster definition is needed. It's _value_ is never
    assigned or read so there's no issue with race conditions.
4) Some other way?
If you had to clean up someone else's code, how would you hope to
see this handled?
It occurred to me in the course of writing this that where I have
"unbundle... code ... bundle" I could wire the original bundle to
both "unbundle" and "bundle" -- but would this be too confusing
and clutter the BD with unnecessary wire ?
Thanks and Best Regards,
-- J.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Discovered a rather unpleasant side-effect of using the typedef constant cluster this way. Since I'm using the typedef cluster constant only to communicate the definition of the cluster--not for dataflow--I resize it to the same size and shape as a control terminal. This is shown in the first image, clean_cluster.jpg. I was also careful to set "Autosizing->None" on all instances of the constant. However, when I updated the typedef, all instances of the constant resized! That's dozens of instances across many different VIs. Why was "Autosizing->None" not respected? Is there a better way to do this so that my BD doesn't get messed up if I have to update a typedef such as this one?
Thanks and Best Regards,
J.

Use variables to create a custom Closed Captioning option

Hey,
I have a click box and text caption. On click of the click box I want to display a text caption and then on all slides throughout a project want that text caption box to remain on each screen, but want the content in that box to change per screen.
What's the best way to do this?

It is possible to do this but it's a bit involved because it requires that you run a check ON Slide Enter of each slide to find out if the CC captions should be displayed. And since those captions will be different objects on each slide, you'll need to set up a different Conditional Advanced Action for each slide. That's a lot of work just to replicate something that Captivate can do with its own CC text feature.
Here's one way to do it:
You place text captions that share the same style and size on each slide. Each caption should have the appropriate CC text for the audio on that slide.
Set up a variable to track whether the user has clicked the button to activate CC text, then set an Advanced Action to show the text caption on the slide where the user clicks this button.
For all the other slides, you need a separate Conditional Advanced Action to be executed ON Slide Enter to check the value of this CC variable and then SHOW the CC text caption if the variable is set to TRUE.
If you don't have too many slides in your project then this might be OK. But if you have a longish project with dozens of slides, you're going to get to hate this pretty quick.

Using log4j to create custom log level in standalone batch application

Hi all,
I would like to use Log4j to create a custom log level so that from my standalone java batch process application, whatever error messages I can log to a log file.
Can any one give me any pointer on this.
Appreciate any help.

This doesn't seem to warrant a 'custom level'. Just use Log4J as is... create a Logger object and use its error() or warn() or whatever methods are appropriate for the logging you want to do. I don't understand the reason for the question.

How do we create a custom format for printed contact information?

We are trying to create a custom family directory for genealogical purposes. Family members are individually saved as Outlook 2010 contacts with a special number field that (when parsed) designates their generation, birth order,
and relationship to parents. The directory listing is by family and needs to indent names, addresses, emails, and other information by generation. In other words, children's names follow parent names and are indented. Likewise, grandchildren are
listed under their parents, but also indented from parents.
Do we need to create a custom display form, some type of custom print template, or do we need to program a merge of some sort? Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
From the description, you want to print the contacts in Outlook using a custom display form, so that you can use it to create a custom family directory, correct?
If this is the case, I'm afraid there is no direct way to print forms as they appear on the custom display form. Outlook can only print forms with the options that are available in the Print window. While you can customize the Print Style settings using
the various options Outlook provides in its user interface, you cannot alter the basic way that Outlook prints by using custom Print Styles.
To work around this limitation, you can either use another program to print Outlook information, or you can download a ActiveX control or Outlook extension to create a custom form printing solution.

I am changing from Word to Pages. I have created my custom template with all my styles etc and that is what comes up when I go for a New Document. Fine. How do I get it to use the same Custom Template when I use Pages to open a Word document?

I am changing from Word to Pages. I have created my custom template with all my styles etc and that is what comes up when I go for a New Document. Fine. How do I get it to use the same Custom Template when I use Pages to open a Word document?

The template is a document in itself, it is not applied to an existing document whether it is a Pages document or a Word document converted to a Pages document.
You would need to either copy and paste content, using existing styles, or apply the styles to the converted Word document.
You can Import the Styles from an existing document and those imported Styles can be used to override the current document's styles:
Menu > Format > Import Styles
The process is simplified if the styles use the same names, otherwise you will need to delete the style you don't want and replace it with the one that you do want when asked, then the substitution is pretty straightforward.

Create a custom web template using VS 2012 with web features,site features sections applied

hi,
Want to create a custom web template using VS 2012 in my SP 2013 environment. i know "Vesku" has posted a great artice on this [ based on prev. version of SP].
here -
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/vesku/archive/2010/10/14/sharepoint-2010-and-web-templates.aspx
i am looking for a code based article which has step by step process which provides how to add the site features, web features and attach the eventreceivers etc etc on sitecollection creation when i apply this template from central admin.
can anyone provide me any links / any source how to create a custom web template with one / two custom features - site features element and web features element , / master page etc ....
I am stuck with this. as part of my reqmnt, i need to create a webtemplate with all the customlistinstances, custompagelayouts, custom masterpages, custom appln pages, custom web parts.
help is appreciated !
Das

The problem is that Web Templates are deployed to a gallery in a site collection and aren't available in Central Admin when creating a new site collection. YOu have to create the site collection without choosing a template and then choose your web
template when you first access the root site in the site collection. Here's an article that discusses that process here:
http://sharepointchick.com/archive/2011/02/10/using-web-templates-to-create-site-collections.aspx
Other than that Vesa's article is still the best one and works essentially the same in 2013 as it does in 2010.

How do I create a custom screen to show after a person logs in we are using windows 7

I have been asked to create a custom welcome screen that would load after a person logs into their computer. This screen is to have links to applications. But I need this to show after they log in and before they see their desktop. and I
need it to be full screen size.
this is mandatory:
I need this to show up AFTER people have logged in, and b4 they see their Desktop. auto adjustment to fill the screen and the screen will have multiple images with them being hyperlinks to the various applications. The kicker is we
are running windows 7. Of course one of the links will go to the desktop.(basically shut down the window screen)
I seem to recall there is a way of doing this using group policy to trigger a screen and possible using HTA or VB6 method or a scripted page but I'm not sure how to accomplish this...
This is coming from upper upper management and they have it mocked up in access 2013.
How do I do this or even accomplish this screen for windows 7.
PS:
I realize that windows 8/8.1 has this type of thing built in, but the company is NOT ready for windows 8/8.1

I built a System Message HTA for my previous employer that was used in a computer lab setting. It was a nice way to inform the users about things happening in the lab, as well as a nice way to ensure people knew who to contact if there were problems.
The HTA lived on a network UNC and each computer had a shortcut to the HTA in their All Users Startup folder (C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup). While you could push the shortcut with GPP, likes the others recommended, that's
about all you should do with Group Policy. This was neat - I had the HTA run custom .cmd files (in a hidden window) when it loaded (the Windows_onLoad subroutine) and then when it was closed by the user (button press that called an ExitProgram subroutine).
This allow me to capture who was logged on, how long the HTA was open, and what computer they were using. In a computer lab such as that one, it was nice to have additional way to track who was using what computer and when. Good luck and let us know if there
are any more questions - I really enjoyed that project.
Edit: Added additional info.

Can I create a custom XMP panel but using the exact same fields from standard XMP panels?

Hi,
I am new to XMP and not very technical, so please excuse me if this sounds like a stupid question!
I have managed to create my own custom panels for Photoshop using the Generic Panel method with my own custom fields and they work fine. However what I need to do now is create a custom panel that uses the exact same fields from some of the standard panels. The reason being is that I have 4 fields that need to be integrated into another non-adobe system (Extensis Portfolio) that recognizes standard XMP fields, but at present these 4 fields are spread across different standard panels and it would be much easier for the user in Photoshop if they were all together on one panel.
An example field is the "Additional Model Info" field that currently resides on the standard IPTC Extension panel. If I fill in a value in this field on a JPEG then open the the image in Extensis Portfolio, then the field is also filled in in a field called IPTC - Model Info, displaying a key of Iptc4xmpExt:AddlModelInfo.
Is there a way I can take this standard field and use it on a custom panel, so that it can still be filled in in Photoshop and the value viewed in Extensis Portfolio? Sure I can create a custom panel and create a field called "Additional Model Info" but I can't figure out how to connect it to the corresponding field in Portfolio. I tried changing the xmp_property name="Iptc4xmpExt:AddlModelInfo" but this just broke the panel.
Is what I am trying to do possible and if so how and can it be done using the Generic Panel method?
Many thanks!

I am trying to do the same thing but with only the IPTC Keywords field. Searching everywhere but no luck.
Thanks!
