Variable and Expressions Question?

I got these questions from a practice book based on sections that talks about learning SQL
and SSIS. It does not have a Key to grade it. Does any of the questions I answered look wrong(I answered in orange)?

#5 is not correct, the answer Windows->Locals is correct

Variable and Formulas Question

Hi folks,
I use BOXI r2 sp 4 and I have a general question re: variables and formulas in Webi reports.
Billing Year Month and Cost of Service are standard time dimensions and measures that I use in my Webi reports and they were created at the semantic level.
Normally, I create cross tab reports with the Billing Year Month along the horizontal axis and the Cost of Service in the Body (Business Unit or Department would be placed along the vertical axis).
For some reason, when I use formulas/variables to modify the standard time dimensions (like changing Billing Year Month to Year), the values for the Cost of Service are returned incorrectly.
Example.
Semantic object: Billing Year Month = (yyyy-MM) returns correct values
Report variable: Substr([Billing Year Month;1;4) returns incorrect values
Can anyone please explain this problem?
Thanks,
Wannetta

Hi John,
The attribute of the Billing Year Month at the semantic level is a character type.
After reading your response, I realize that I may not have been clear regarding the problem.
The following formula does return the correct value in and of itself.
>=Substr([Billing Year Month];1;4
If I create a variable and then drag it onto my crosstab, it returns the correct value ONLY within the header.
When I drag the cost of service measure onto the crosstab; the header values remain the same but values in the body either disappear or the change to reflect incorrect values.
I thought one of the prime features of Webi was the ability of the Report Developer to create variables/formulas and use them in the headers to manipulate the semantic "measures" in the body (read: output) at the report level.
Is this a matter of semantic design or does Webi not possess this capability?
Or, is the issue entirely different?
Thanks!

Axiom 25 and Express Questions

Hi guys!
Ive got some questions about syncing up my M-audio axiom 25 to Logic. My goal right now is to be able to write bass and drum parts (addictive drums) into the piano roll in write mode using the midi controller.
1. first off how do I make the rotary controllers, say B1 to command logic to change the quantize parameters for when i'm writing drums in piano roll. turning clockwise will change the quantize value from 1/4 to 1/6 and counter clock wise will turn from 1/4 to 1/3.
2. After that, how can I set B2 to transport left or right in piano roll (clock wise counter clockwise) so the playhead can move to the quantized value, which would allow rests.
3. How can I set so my keystroke hits are placed between a certain velocity range? Like notes i play can only sound between 100 and 127 velocity.
4. Could you maybe give me some other cool functionality ideas for syncing the two up for my work environment? Im sure there are things I haven't thought of because im new to the whole concept of a MIDI controller.

Hi,
i don't know the Axiom, so maybe i'm wrong.
First, read the chapter on Control Surfaces in the Manual. Especially the Learn function (CMD-L) which can quick assign functions to a midi controller. Maybe this is all you need to get the knobs'n'buttons work. Select the function in Logic by clicking on it, press CMD-L and move the desired controller. That's all there is. You can, however, assign it manually in the control surface setup.
The second thing is the velocity range. This can be done afterwards with the transform function.
Usually i don't say this, but: Have a look in the manual. The tasks you want to perform are very specific, and it would be a long run to explain every little step here. However, feel free to ask if you have further questions

AEBS Graphite & Snow and Express Questions

Just moved my mac mini into a refinished basement and now am having drop out problems with the AEBS Graphite & Snow (it's now having to go through several walls, carpet and a new ceiling). The Graphite & Snow is on the main floor, where the cable modem is, and where it has to be since my wife's work computer is there; her PC cannot be wireless on account of work security.
I was wondering if getting an airport express would help strengthen the signal, since it can be used as a range extender?
Or would getting a new Airport Extreme serve the same purpose as adding an Express to an older model Graphite snow?
Thanks in advance for any replies.

The problem is that the Graphite and Snow can't be extended wirelessly. Even WDS isn't an option with them.
... her PC cannot be wireless on account of work security.
Typically silly IT nonsense. Do their meetings require Maxwell Smart's Cone of Silence? (What???)
I suppose they don't allow cell phone use either.

How can I add a watch to a variable or expression during javascript debugging

Since the new update to safari 6 I am looking for a way to add a watch to a variable or expression during javascript debugging. I don't want to go to the console line every time to type in the separate variables and expressions over and over again. Also hovering over a variable doesn't show the value.

I couldn't find the answer either (I submitted an enhancement request to http://www.apple.com/feedback/safari.html in hopes that it will get added back in), but downloading a nightly build of webkit (http://nightly.webkit.org) will give you an alternative version of Safari that still uses the version 5 inspector, which to me is preferable anyway.

Question about session variables and binding

Hi All,
I'm a newbie with Application Express. I've gone through several tutorials and a book, and now I'm actually getting started with apex. My first adventure is a tiny little form, where all you do is fill it out and it sends an email. Pretty simple.
And, i have it working just fine - but I have a question about something I don't quite understand. Basically, I am generating the email text in a page process. And some of the form fields work fine if i reference them as *:ACCT_NAME*, but some give me the dreaded "not all variables bound" error. For the ones that give me the error, I can reference them like V('ACCT_NAME').
So, as a newbie, I'm a little confused. When is it appropriate to use the V function, and when it is appropriate to use binding? Why would one of the fields work with binding but not another from the same form?
Thanks for any clarification you can offer,
Lisa

Lisa,
A bind variable is a place holder variable available in an environment.It is used quite frequently(outside Apex Context) in SQL and PLSQL scripts and especially in Dynamic SQL statements.Many times using a bind variable gives better performance. In the Apex environment,page items and many other variables related to the session are available as bind variables and hence their value can be referred in SQL,PLSQL contexts as :VARIABLE_NAME.
Now V() function is an apex specific function which returns the value of an apex session variable outside the apex environment. So as Machaan pointed out, it is used in
procedures and triggers that gets called from within an apex session. This is required since the bind variables themselves are not directly available in the SQL environment but their values from the corresponding session can be accessed by this apex built-in function.
The length of any Bind variable name is limited to 30 characters, this is a limitation inherited from Oracle SQL itself and hence session variables(page or application items) whose name has a length which exceeds 30 characters cannot be used as the :ITEM_NAME format. In such cases you would have to use the v() method again. This might be happening in your case.

How can I create a function using TestStand variables and call it from a step's Pre-Expression?

In one sequence I have dozens of Pre-Expressions which are almost the same thing, like this...
Locals.tagID = (Parameters.singlePhaseEnabled ? "L" : "D") & Str(Locals.phase) & "006"
...and the only thing different is that three digit string at the end ("006" will vary). How can I write a function that I can call from a step's Pre-Expression so it would look something like this? ...
Locals.tagID = MyNewFunction("006")

You cannot write custom commands for expressions.
That being said, there are a couple of options:
Create a subsequence with a single step. Use a parameter of the sequence as "function parameter".
Create a custom step type including a substep module which implements the function. Add an edit substep to enable the user of the steptype to gracefully change the parameter.
Store the variable parameter in a local/file global variable and modify the value in each step. This will, at least, keep the "function" the same for every step.

Coming over from the dark side.....many questions...Extreme and Express

My 1st apple product was the iPhone so now I believe!
Recently, I purchased an Airport Extreme 802.11n from eBay.
Question #1: Are there two versions of the Airport Extreme 802.11n? How do I know if I have the dual-band version? From the Airport Utility, I can choose the 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz band but not both. I can see that there is a "b/g" compatible mode but what does it mean if I choose the b/g compatible mode? It seems that I have the older 802.11n Airport Extreme model?
I also purchased a used Airport Express b/g model. I thought it was the "n" model because it looks like the "n" model (all white). I have a bad feeling that this does not have the WDS feature. If this is the case, does that mean I can't use this Airport Express to extend the Airport Extreme Base Station?
Can I use bridge mode wireless to extend the wireless signal in my home although I will have two wireless ID's in the home? Basically, with the Extreme and Express that I have now, can I set it up to extend wireless coverage in my home?
My Extreme is currently on 7.3.1 because 7.4.1 is not stable. My Windows pc's disconnects all the time.
My Express is on 6.3.

Hello westladog. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Are there two versions of the Airport Extreme 802.11n?
There are actually three "versions." Here they are in "oldest" to "newest" order:
o Non-Gigabit Ethernet (Part No. MA073LL/A)
o Gigabit Ethernet (Part No. MB053LL/A)
o Dual-Band (Part No. MB763LL/A)
Based on your description, you have either the non-Gigabit or Gigabit version.
I can see that there is a "b/g" compatible mode but what does it mean if I choose the b/g compatible mode?
That would mean that your AirPort will support both 802.11n and 802.11b/g wireless clients simultaneously.
I also purchased a used Airport Express b/g model. I thought it was the "n" model because it looks like the "n" model (all white). I have a bad feeling that this does not have the WDS feature.
Both the newer 802.11n or older 802.11b/g versions of the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) support WDS ... so either could be used to extend the wireless range of your 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn).
Can I use bridge mode wireless to extend the wireless signal in my home although I will have two wireless ID's in the home?
With a WDS, you will only have one "wireless ID." The AirPorts use the term "Network Name." It is also known as a SSID.
Basically, with the Extreme and Express that I have now, can I set it up to extend wireless coverage in my home?
Yes.

Question about shared variables and report generator

I have a project with about 200-250 shared variables and at every 12 hours i want to make a report containing information about some boolean and double front panel variables linked to the shared variables... Now, i've tried with both the "Write Trace to SpreadSheet File" function from DSC->History and with different functions from NI Report Generation Toolkit. My problem is this: i would like to get my xls file to contain just the timestamps when my shared variable changed value. As it is, the number of rows in the file depends, obviously, on the sampling interval given as input. As an example, in 12 hours, my shared variable would change value maybe 5-6 times. Thus i would like my xls file to contain just 5-6 rows with those 5-6 changes. If i set the sampling interval to say, a matter of seconds, that would mean too much unneeded information in my xls file. Instead, if i set it to let's say 15 minutes, i would probably lose the moment the shared variable changed value. Is there a way for me to achieve my desired functionality with functions from DSC or Report Generation Toolkit? Thanks in advance, Sabin

Hi Mike and thanks for the reply. Actually, my first idea was exactly this: in an event case structure, whenever my variable changed value, i would retain the relevant data in an array and then at the 12 hour period write all of it in a report. However, my boss deeemed it memory unefficient and compelled me to use only one function. Thus my predicament... If you have more advice on this new info, i would be grateful... Cheers, sabin

A basic question about static variables and methods

What would be the effects if I declare lots of static variables and static methods in my class?
Would my program run faster?
Would the class take more memory spaces? (If so, how do I estimate an appropriate number of variabls and methods to be declared static?)
Thank you @_@

when you declare a static var the var isn't created for every instance of the class, it just "live" in the class
when you declare a static method is the same, so if you have:
class MyClass
static int myMethod()
//Method work
you dont need to have a instance of the class to call myMethod, you can do such things like this.
int value = Myclass.myMethod();
if myMethod isn't static you can't do this.. so, if
class MyClass
int myMethod()
//Method work
you CAN'T call
int value = MyClass.myMethod();
instead, you have to write
MyClass m;
m = new MyClass();
value = m.myMethod();

Extract Variables and Values out of a String

Hello Everbody!
I have a question, hope that anyone can help me.
I have a string of this kind: "frame= 2255 q=0.0 size= 2739kB time=75.0 bitrate= 299.3kbits/s"
Know I want to deconstruct it and extract the variables and
values written in there. There is some Whitespace in it.
After the extraction it have to look like this:
frame=2255
q=0.0

What is a StringTokenizer?http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/StringTokenizer.html
Can you give me an
example? Would be great! http://www.google.com/search?q=java+stringtokenizer+example
You can first use space as the delimiter, to get tokens
a=b
c=d
etc.
Then you can tokenize each of those tokens on =.
However, this doesn't work if you can have spaces around the = or inside the values:
a = b
c="d e f"
If you can have this, you'll have to take a different approach. String.split might serve you better in that case, but you'll have to learn a bit about regex first.

How to find colums in CLOB variable and get this colums value to update col

Question
How to find colums in CLOB variable and get this colums value to update colum of oracle database table
How my work will go
Step-1 - I am creating XML FIle which is based on code that we discused before-
Its developing xml file with data in <...inputelement> as u can see in my xml but in <..output> Element of xml its just have all column for exampe <itemoutput>
<FLD NM = "ABC"> 0 </FLD>
<FLD NM = "XYZ:> </FLD> --- for varchar2
</itemoutput>
In 1st stage i am just generating <..INPUT> with its colums and real value from database and <..output> elements will go zero value but with colums name.
Note. I create temp table will all COLUMN which u can see in both in <..ITEMINPUT> and <..ITEMOUTPUT>
Step2.. After Generaing my xml i want to convert my xml data into CLOB not in a file. so clob will go to the VENDOR
STEP3.
I will Recieved again xml data in CLOB from the vendo in <.OUTPUT> ELEMents
for example
I send this format
<itemoutput>
<FLD NM = "ABC"> 0 </FLD>
<FLD NM = "XYZ:> </FLD> --- for varchar2
</itemoutput>
And i will receive it
<itemoutput>
<FLD NM = "ABC VALUE"> 2 </FLD>
<FLD NM = "XYZ TYPE:> SUV</FLD> --- for varchar2
</itemoutput>
So will take this output valu from xml clob and will update my staging table .
Which have the same colum name as its look in xml clob.
Step- 4. I will take this value from staging table and update my original oracle database table. which i send you before.
But u leave this step becaue you dont know the staging table colum maping with original table.
I think now you understand
Please feed back
monriz

here is my xml..
I want to extract <..output> elements which enclosed with " " and its values from this xml file. please any body have any idea. please tell me
Thanks

Using Shared Variables and Initialize Front Panel Binding (to PSP)

Hi,
I use LV DSC RT 8.2.1
I have a Vacuum System That includes signals from - Pumps failure, Valves status, Vacuum gauge, start Pump ...
Each signal is read by a FieldPoint.
All the relevant FieldPoint Channels are read by the Server (a computer in the Ethernet Network) and published to the network in the form of Shared Variables.
I have a client VI that is reading the Shared Variables published by the Server using Front Panel Binding.
Problem :
Some of the Bindings are in the mode 'Write &Read' and that causes some initialization problems.
For example - Valve #1 is Open, and then a User start running the Client VI, (the Valve #1 Status mode is 'Write & Read")
if in the VI the status of Valve #1 is closed (before running it) then the Valve status is changing to Closed.
I want the Client VI to first read the Physical status of the instrument and then to change the Value if the User changes it.
But that's seems to be a problem when using Front Panel Binding... (is it?)
I know I can Deploy a lvlib in the Client Side and Item Bind to the Shared Variables or Use DataSocket.
(Is DataSocket is a Reliable method when connecting to Shared Variables? What are the disadvantages when using DataSocket?)
What is recommended by those of you that are experienced or by NI ?
Sincerely Yours,
Amitai Abramson.

Amitai Abramson,
Hello and thanks for using the NI Forums.
I'm glad that you've read the Using the LabVIEW Shared Variable Tutorial on our website. Check out these other resources:
Network Variable Technical Overview
Troubleshooting Network-Published Shared Variables
Why Do I See Unexpected Value Change Events for Shared Variables Using LabVIEW DSC?
All You Need to Know About Shared Variables
Creating a Value Change Event for Shared Variables
Alternative Method for Using Shared Variables Between Systems in LabVIEW 8.x
What Is The Difference Between Using Shared Variables And DataSocket VIs To Access OPC Tags?
The issue that you are seeing by having "Write & Read" bound items on both the server and client side is essentially a race condition, you don't know which one is being read/written at what time. To resolve this issue I would take a look at some of the documents below.
Using a Local, Global, or Shared Variable in Parallel Loops Can Cause Race Conditions
Using Local and Global Variables Carefully
Tutorial: Local Variable, Global Variable, and Race Conditions
Locking a Shared Resource or Variable in LabVIEW Using Semaphores
You mentioned not wanting to have two sets of shared variables (one on each side), but this is a great method to resovle this issue, that, or you can develope some sort of hand shaking to prevent these race conditions.
I would suggest that in the future when using these forums you try to ask only one question per thread and make it more concise. It's hard to tackle multiple questions and such broad questions as "I want to know all the ways that I can connect to Shared Variables, and I want to know the advantages and disadvantages." I suggest this because we want you to get your questions answered and more concise questions will result in quicker and better answers.

Basic behavior - compile vs. save, application freezes and other questions

Hi all,
I've just recently moved from MS SQL to Oracle and found Oracle SQL Developer the only more or less working application to access the database and write scripts. Still, there are some issues which are beyond me in this application. So what I'd need to know:
1) When I open a package and edit it, what is the difference between hitting CTRL+S (save) and Compile? I just need to change the code, not run the damn script. Run and Debug I suppose would execute the whole package.
2) When I save a package, why does the application freeze? I have no idea what it is doing, but when I kill it the code is not changed.
3) When I connect to packages of a different user why cannot it export the ddl / source code of the whole package?
4) When I am inactive for some time, is there some normal way to reconnect to the connection other than disconnect + connect, which closes all windows I have open on the connection?
5) Why does drag + drop a table name to SQL worksheet sometimes offer me to create a script and sometimes ignores me completely?
6) Is there any way to convince the popups with table/column names to work also with variables and/or to show also data types of columns? Incidentally, is there a way to make it work all the time and not just during favorable moon phases?
Thank you ever so much for answering any but preferably all questions.

1. None
2. Might be a lock - check the Enterprise Manager
3. What is connecting to packages? How are you trying that export?
4. Go vote on http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=42626:39:1538555050886906::NO::P39_ID:10421 to add weight for a real reconnect option
5. Script? You mean insert/update/select, right?
6. You mean the completion insight? Note you can force it to show with CTRL-space. If that doesn't work you'll have to be more specific.
Regards,
K.

RH10 variable and build tag source file names

I'm using RH10 and outputting to WebHelp. My company requires that I archive project source files to our CVS via Eclipse. I am not using RoboSource_Control and must use the company's development resources for archiving.
Since archiving the initial project, I have been uploading only source files with modified dates.
However, I have discovered that the files I thought were storing user variables and build tags are not the correct files to archive. Since I am uploading all files with a newer date and that's not working, I need to know the user variable source file name and the build tag source file name that stores the currently defined variables and build tags.
I have already tried the WebHelp forum and was directed to this forum to pose the question because I'm looking for source file information instead of output file information.
Thanks for your help!

Yes, Eclipse does work that way. However, we do not use our development directory as the local Eclipse repository. I need to move changed files to the local repository (stores all source files in the project) so that Eclipse can upload changes to the server. Yes, this is planned redundancy.
That said, it is not acceptable to spend the time copying all files in the large projects from the work folder to the local repository. I simply need to know which individual files to copy that include the currently defined variables and build tags. Note, we do not copy the SSL folder output files to our local source file repository, or other associated reference files that are not actually project source files.
Can you find someone who knows which files I need?
Thanks,
karen
