Variables for images?
RH 8 outputting a CHM or webhelp
Is it possible to use variables to switch images in and out when I compile?
I would like to use single source to create 2 guides for 2 audiences. While nearly all of the text content is the same, the screen shots need to vary by audience.
I know I can have popups/dropdowns to accommodate both audiences in one topic...just thinking of a more ideal solution...
Thanks.
Hi there
You may accomplish this using Conditional Build Tags. You tag the desired images, then exclude tags at compile time using a Build Expression.
Cheers... Rick

Create cache variable for image
hi everyone
i am using swfloader to load an image, and storing its conents in an array so if it is loaded again in future it can be loaded directly from that variable instead of downloading it again.
First time when i load the image , it is loaded properly, and when i load the same image secondtime, it loads it properly from this variable but old image is removed from the page. I am not able to understand what is causing this, here is the code which I used for this.
public function loadimage(_data:Object){
// check if it does not exists in cachedata variable then download else load from cache
if(cachedata[_data.url] == null){
var _swfloader:SWFLoader=new SWFLoader;
_swfloader.load(_data.url);
_swfloader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,EventDelegate.create(onImagesComplete,imgconta iner));
} else{
imgcontainer.addChild(cachedata[_data.url]);
public function onImagesComplete(event:Event,imgcontainer):void
var __tpLd:SWFLoader = event.target as SWFLoader;
var imgContents=__tpLd.content;
// store in cachedata variable
cachedata[filename]=imgContents;
var extension:String=filename.substring(filename.length-3,filename.length);
imgcontainer.addChild(imgContents);
please help me on this...
thanksThat is because you are caching _tpLd.content which will be a Bitmap object. So, as soon as you do an addChild again on it, it will be removed from the previous container as it can only have one parent.
The solution is to cache BitmapData instead:
var bitmapData:BitmapData = (content as Bitmap).bitmapData;
_imageDataCache.putImageData(_imageId, bitmapData);
So, you can re-use it by constructing a new Bitmap object from the same BitmapData. The difference in memory usage will be negligible as you are using the same BitmapData again.
Here is an implementation of CachedImage component along with ImageDataCache so that we do not have to write plumbing code everywhere. You can use it or modify your code on the same lines. It is available at:

How do I create an automator variable for a path that includes a date?
I like to use Image Capture to scan documents into a hierarchy of folders under my ~/Documents directory that are organized by year and document type. For example, I have
~/Documents/archives/2011
/Misc
/Utilities
and
~/Documents/archives/2012
/Misc
/Utilities
for archiving miscellaneous docs and utilities bills. Now, switching folders in Image Capture is annoying so I want to use the Automator support built into that app to direct the scanned images to ~/Documents/archives/<Current Year>/Misc or ~/Documents/archives/<Current Year>/Utilities. I was able to do this with separate Automator workflows, each with a hard-coded path to the destination folder. For example,
What I would like to do is use an Automator variable to dynamically determine ~/Documents/archives/<Current Year>/Misc. I see variables for Home, Documents, and Current Year. However, when I try to create a new path variable it only lets me choose a full path to a Finder folder. How do I combine Documents and Current Year variables with the "archives" and "Misc" folder names to create a new path variable?Well now, you went and made me learn something today. In the Variables Library, under Utilities, is a variable named AppleScript. You can put a small script into this that evaluates to your path, for example:
((((path to documents folder) as text) & "archives:" & (year of (current date)) as text) & ":Utilities") as alias
If the script evaluates to a proper path, it can be used wherever any other path can - you can experiment by looking at the results of a Get Value of Variable action. -
How to set boot variable for standby Sup2 in 6500?
I'm upgrading a 6500 with dual Sup2. Have copied the new boot image and system image to both bootflash and slavebootflash. Have also set new boot statements for the active Sup.
However couldn't set the boot variables for the standby Sup. Do I need to? Will the boot statements in the startup config take care both Sup's?
Thanks
GaryIf you do a wr mem, it should synchronize. You can verify using sh bootvar. Here is outputs from my lab
Router#sh bootvar
BOOT variable = sup-bootflash:c6sup22-jsv-mz.121-26.E3,1
CONFIG_FILE variable =
BOOTLDR variable =
Configuration register is 0x2102
Standby is up
Standby has 227328K/34816K bytes of memory.
Standby BOOT variable = sup-bootflash:c6sup22-jsv-mz.121-26.E3,1
Standby CONFIG_FILE variable =

Which Datatype I have to use for Images in MS-Access Database.
Hi Friends...
I am Atif. I have stucked in a query. Please suggest me.
Which Datatype I have to use for Images in MS-Access Database ?
Thanks in advance..
Regards
AtifDepends upon whether you are referring to a variable or the data type of the column in which to store the data. For a table you should use an OLE Object. For example, you could use something like the following to store an image into a Access table from a
PictureBox (sans OLE header):
Dim AccessConnection As New OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
"Data Source=C:\Test Files\db1 XP.mdb")
Dim AccessCommand As New OleDbCommand("INSERT INTO BlobTable (ID, BLOB) " & _
"VALUES (@ID, @BLOBData)", AccessConnection)
Dim PictureMemoryStream As MemoryStream = New MemoryStream()
Form3.PictureBox1.Image.Save(PictureMemoryStream, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg)
Dim BLOBData(PictureMemoryStream.Length - 1) As Byte
PictureMemoryStream.Position = 0
PictureMemoryStream.Read(BLOBData, 0, PictureMemoryStream.Length)
AccessCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("ID", 7)
AccessCommand.Parameters.Add("BLOBData", OleDbType.LongVarBinary, BLOBData.Length, DataRowVersion.Current).Value = BLOBData
AccessConnection.Open()
AccessCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()
AccessConnection.Close()

Looking for Image Button Applet
I'm looking for a simple image button applet (normal state, mouse-over and mouse-click) which can refer to a HTML or start a Javascript function. Can anyone help?
KippieHi,
This is the source code. I don't quite understand what I should do with the tokens. I hope this is allright. Thanks for your help
Kippie.

Program Name: ImageURLButtonBar
Author: Paul Whitelock
Version: 1.1
Copyright: (c) 1997 by Paul Whitelock and Modern Minds, Inc.
Requires: ImageURLButtonBar.class
ButtonBar.class
ButtonBarObserver.class (Interface definition)
ButtonRegion.class
ButtonAnimate.class
Modifications: v1.01 (15 April 97)
* Added "sticky" button behavior (controlled
by applet "stick" parameter)
v1.03 (25 June 97)
* Added applet parameter "useCodeBase". If useCodeBase
is true, then image file locations will be based on the directory
in which the Java class files are located. If useCodeBase is false, then
the locations will be based on the HTML directory. Note that audio
file locations are always based on the Java directory. The default
for useCodeBase is false (use HTML directory for base).
* The "stick" parameter will now accept a button number in
addition to the value of "true" or "false". If a button number
is specified, then that button will be "stuck" down
when the button bar initializes.
* Added the capability of loading multiple URLs for each button
with an optional target for each URL.
v1.1 (25 September 97)
* Added "baseBrighten" and "baseBrightenTint" parameters to control
highlighting for base button bar.
* Added "mouseOverBrighten" and "moBrightenTint" parameters to control
highlighting for base button bar.
* Added "mdBrightenTint" and "mdBrightenAll" parameters to control
highlighting for base button bar. Previous versions of the applet
supported "mouseDownBrighten," but only if button borders were not
drawn for the button-down button bar (the "mdBrightenAll" can be set
to "true" to override the this default behavior).
* An "appletBGColor" parameter has been added to set the
applet background color. The applet background color is
sometimes visible during scrolling or during a page repaint.
NOTE: This source code was composed using Microsoft Visual J++
with tab stops of 4. Text may not be formatted correctly
if another editor is used.

Relative paths for images upset by forwarding requests
Hello World.
I am using a web app deployed in Weblogic 5.1 with service pack 8.
I have hit a problem which puzzles me. When I forward a request from
one JSP to another (say from A to B) the web server seems to take the
URLs of the images on the served file (B) relative to the path on the
calling file (A). Here's a detailed explanation...
Suppose I have a the web app structured as follow
/oddApp/launch/A.jsp
/oddApp/B.jsp
/oddApp/images/tick.gif
Page A simply stores its request URI and forwards its request to page B
<jsp:forward page="/B.jsp" />
Page B displays its requestURI, contextPath and servletPath. It also
attempts
to show three images
<img src="images/tick.gif">
<img src="../images/tick.gif">
<img src="/images/tick.gif">
When I invoke page B directly, the first image is shown, the others are not.
When I invoke page A, it forwards to B and the second image is shown, the
others are not.
In each case the URI, contextPath and servletPath are correctly displayed
with regard to page B.
URI = [oddApp/B.jsp]
contextPath = [oddApp]
servletPath = [B.jsp]
The URI in A.jsp is also correct (i.e. /oddApp/launch/A.jsp).
The search for the images seems to be relative to the original URI (i.e. not
the URI used to forward), which strikes me as daft. It means that page B
must be aware of where it is being called from. It is perfectly plausible
that
relative paths which suit when called from one location are incorrect when
called from another.
I had thought that including the leadling slash (as shown as the third
image)
would cause the search relative to the document root (/oddApp/), but this
appears not to be the case. The search is done relative to the root of the
server not the web app.
Adding jsp mappings in the deployment descriptor of the web app does not
help (I had thought it a long shot anyway).
Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
PHiL
i face the same problem (WinNT, WLS6.0): my wep app has a contextRoot " root " which makes it react to the URL: http://host:port/root /: it is this folder which will be used as a basis by the Web server But in the jps I use a relative URL for images: / images/toto.gif : it works very well when I deploy my jsp out of a Web-app by setting a document.root to the weblogic web server.On the other hand, once deployed in a Web-app, images are not found because the default path of the browser is http://host:port, without the context root of the Web-app! In other words, my war has images/*.gif in its root but when /images/toto.gif is resolved in a jsp, as the relative URL is not prefixed by my context-root, the image is not search in the war! actually, if I type http://host:port/root/toto.gif, my image appearsany clues? an alias on the web server? a setting in web.xml/application.xml and their weblogic equivalent files?

Need a Syatem variable for Executing the report by RFC.
Hi Experts,
Need a Syatem variable for Executing the report by RFC.
what i mean to say is,i can execure the report directly ...then no issues.
But if i execute the Report by RFC ,then i should put a condition with system variable...
Please suggest me ,how can put a condition when i am executing the report through RFC.
Thanks
BabuHello Friend,
what I understood that you want to put some extra condition if that report is getting called from RFC...
you can use the system variable SY-CPROG....it will hold the value of the report when it is geeting executing directly...
but when it is getting executed therough RFC...it will hold that RFC name...
Thanks

How do I show file size in the Finder icon view for images?
How can I add the file size to the icon view "File Info" for images?
I know how to get it to display the image size under View Options. In this mode it shows pixel dimensions for some images (not for svg or pdfs tho) and file size for some non-images (rar, zip, but not txt or plain text files).
Is there some plist I can modify?Just found the answer in a post with this subject:

How can I use variable for a package filename and target file inODIFileMove
I want to use a variable for paths so that when I migrate from Dev to QA to Prod I don't have to do a lot of editing.
Specifically, I want a variable to be the first part of the path for the filename (\\sundev1\fnd1-hypd1) and join this with the rest (\update\log\*.log or specific filename) using several different objects like the ODIFileMove, ODI OS Command, OS Command, etc.
Thank you!Hi,
you could set up a database table holding processing parameters (i.e. Column1 - ParamName, Column2 - ParamValue).
One row could then be ParamName = FilePath, ParamValue = \\<server>\folder\
So, the refreshing query (attached to a logical schema) would be something like SELECT ParamValue FROM <your table> WHERE ParamName ='FilePath'
Then, create a variable which can refresh from the database and in the package, drop the variable onto the flow and set it's type to 'Refresh Variable' in the properties.
Hope this helps.

How to use one Bex Variable for two purposes in one query?
Hi,
I want to prompt for a UOM in a query. Then I want to use that one UOM variable to do 2 tasks in the query:
1. Perform a UOM conversion on one restricted key figure (no filtering)
2. Filter in a second restricted key figure (no conversion)
How would I use a variable (or two?) to do this? I do not want to have 2 UOM prompts.
Thanks!
GreggOh, it all seems so easy now! Hindsight 20-20...
Solution was to create a new input ready variable for Unit.
1. Restrict the key figures which need restricting using new variable
2. For conversions, in BI backend us T-code RSUOM and create new conversion type associated with new variable. Then for each key figure needing conversion, set the conversion parameter to use the new conversion type.
Between both 1 & 2 above, the same variable is used & thus prompted only once.
Solution works perfectly.... as it should. Hope this helps someone else! -
How to substitute a bind variable for a IN condition?
Dynamically I am setting the WHERE condition for one of my blocks using SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY Built in. The condition that I am attaching has two IN conditons..
For Eg.,
contracts_tbl.status_col IN ('NEW', 'OLD', 'EXPIRED', 'OPEN')
AND contracts_tbl.id_col IN (1, 2, 3, 4)
The number of choices in the IN condition will vary depending upon the user choice in my screen. Because of this the parsed SQL state is could not be shared and multiple of these are getting created in shared pool. To avoid this I would like to use bind variables.
There are two ways I am trying to do this..
1. Generating one bind variable for each value. i.e.,
contracts_tbl.status_cod IN (:global.var1, :global.var2,
:global.var3)
Now this could result it memory error if no. of choices exceeds the avilable memory. Also its a tedious task to purge the variables after querying the block. Also because of multiple IN conditions, the chances of different set of selections are possible and then again sharing will be minimal.
2. The second method is to set the one bind variable for each IN condition. i.e.,
:GLOBAL.Var1 := '( 'NEW', 'OLD', 'EXPIRED', 'OPEN' )';
:GLOBAL.Var2 := '(1, 2, 3)';
contracts_tbl.status_col IN :GLOBAL.Var1
AND contracts_tbl.id_col IN :GLOBAL.Var2
In this case, forms is not querying as the IN condition takes the global variable value as one string and the query returns no rows though there are plenty available for each status. Also any NUMBER type condtions erroring out as the , and ( are invalid numerals.
Q: Is there anyway you can make this work? or Is there any other better method to substitute bind variables in place to avoid creating new set of statements for each query in the shared pool?
Your suggestions and pointers are higly appreciated. Please respond immediately as this is a P1.
Thanks,
-- Raam.2. The second method is to set the one bind variable for each >>IN condition. i.e.,
:GLOBAL.Var1 := '( 'NEW', 'OLD', 'EXPIRED', 'OPEN' )';
:GLOBAL.Var2 := '(1, 2, 3)';
contracts_tbl.status_col IN :GLOBAL.Var1
AND contracts_tbl.id_col IN :GLOBAL.Var2 This method should work - not sure if you put exact syntax in or not but your first assignment would cause a problem as everywhere you want one ' mark you would have to put two so that it does not close your quoted string
Try the following syntax:
:GLOBAL.Var1 := '( ''NEW'', ''OLD'', ''EXPIRED'', ''OPEN'' )';
:GLOBAL.Var2 := '(1, 2, 3)';
SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY('blk name',
default_where,
'contracts_tbl.status_col IN ' || :GLOBAL.Var1
|| ' AND contracts_tbl.id_col IN ' ||
:GLOBAL.Var2);
Hope this helps,

Variables for calendar year/month
Hi All,
My requirement is to create a headcount report which has to display the number of employees for different time period. ´
1) When user chooses calender day then the report should display total number of employees on that time period(01.01.2005)-(10.01.2009).
2) If user chooses calyear /month then he should see the report for each calyear/month (like 01.2005 , 02.2005,02,2005....)in the columns.
I tried dropping calyear/month in column and i got the result for my second scenario (like 01.2005 , 02.2005,02,2005....)
But when the user chooses the calday it still shows the report by calmonth (bcoz of calyear/month in the column).
I also tried text variable for calyear/moth(replacement path method) but i have the restriction in the interval (from date or to date - i have to choose one by default) so it shows only either date in the columns .
The two variables. 1) Calender Day (Interval,Optional)) 2) Calender Year /Month (Interval,Optional)
I got four restricted key figure to restrict number of employees by business.
Eg :
When Cal Day is choosed then the report will be :(01.01.2005 -10.01.2009)
(01.01.2005 - 10.01.2009)
Country Sales Finance
India 20 30
Denmark 30 50
When Calyear / Month is choosed then the report will be : (01.2005 - 02-2005) :
01.2005 02.2005
Country Sales Finance Sales Finance
India 24 70 70 45
Denmark 36 60 56 30

Edited by: vasister a on Oct 9, 2009 11:10 AMHello,
This cannot be achived dynamically.
I think the two ways you can work out is creating two different reports one to include daywise and the other to include montwise structure.
Otherwise you can keep calday in free char and ask user to swap calmonth with calday as per requirement.
Else you have to create a workbook report and make use of VB macros to calculate report dynamically which is a very complex approach.

How do I check the Oracle enviornment variables for a connection?
I am using Oracle JDBC 10.2.0.4 and trying to output the Oracle enviornment variables for a connection.

Using a variable for two different characteristic
Hello
I've to following situation:
1) While execuring a query in BEx Analyzer, the user should manually enter a specific key date KEY_DATE
2) Then, two InfoObjects should be restricted by using that KEY_DATE as follows
a) InfoObject BEG_DATE <= KEY_DATE
b) InfoObject END_DATE > KEY_DATE
So, in Query Designer I've created a variable KEY_DATE and added it to each of the above InfoObjects. Now, while executing the query I get an error: "Variable KEY_DATE is used for two different characteristics".
Is there another possibility to realize my requirements?Hi Dear,
create variable for that date and restrict the char. info object by that date.
-->create a variable of date char.
-->in General tab, select processing by Replacement path
-->in replacement path , offset 0 and lenght 0
-->ok
when u restrict, select value ranges and select greater than for one and less than equal for another
try and let me know if any probm...
