  • Make version cue open source

    I know it's a long shot. But any chance that adobe will release version cue cs4 as open source or maybe the sdk?
    Cheers,
    Ben

    Install SharePoint Foundation on your Windows 7 PC (it will need to be 64-bit OS). The setup is a little complicated but okay once you get it set up. There are also some tricks to set up using non-domain accounts.
    Also be sure to install SQL Server Express first and do a "Farm" install (not "Stand-alone"). Use the "with tools" package of SQL Server to get Management Studio.
    With Visual Studio Express you won't have all the deployment bells and whistles, and you will have to set up your project items by hand, but you can still build your .wsp.
    If you are going to release a commercial product you will need to test deploying it to a SharePoint farm built on Windows Server 2008 at some stage, obviously.

  • Java GUI open source components ?

    Hi guys;
    I'm writing a desktop Java Application that I'm planning to sell later on.
    The point is that I want the GUI to look sharp : so I don't plan to use the Ugly looking java Swings.
    the look I'm looking for might be close to MS office 2003 or even better.
    I wonder if there are some FREE OPEN SOURCE java GUI components that I can integrate into my code ?
    Please let me know if you have any Ideas about this issue .
    Many thanks for your precious Help !

    Try this:
                UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());That attempts to set swing's L&F to one which matches the OS you're running it on.

  • Help needed regarding some open source and good media streaming server

    Hi
    I am searching for some open source and java based media streaming server which can facilitate live video streaming. Can anyone please suggest me some good streaming server.
    Thank you.

    Some observations:
    (1) The use of the Configuration.createRootApplicationModule() API is recommended only for console programs, not web applications, but it should work ok as long as your use of the appliation module is completely stateless (which from the code it looks like it is since you release the AM back to the pool on each request.)
    (2) You mention "Stateful" mode, but Configuration.createRootApplicationModule() only supports stateless mode, so you are effectively using Stateless mode.
    (3) You are passing true as the 2nd argument to Configuration.releaseRootApplicationModule() which means you are asking to immediately remove the application module instance from the pool. This will hurt the scalability of your application since each request will need to be served by creating a brand new instance of the application module.
    (4) You are explicitly calling disconnect(). This is not necessary.
    I would recommend:
    (1) Changing your 2nd argument to releaseRootApplicationModule() to false
    (2) Remove the explicit call to disconnect()
    (3) Given your usage pattern, I'd recommend calling viewobject.setForwardOnly(true) before calling viewobject.executeQuery() and iterating over the results. This will avoid any caching of the fetched view object results. Also ensure you've read section "27.2 Tuning Your View Objects for Best Performance" of the ADF Developer's Guide for Forms/4GL Developers guide on the ADF Learning Center at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/adf/learnadf.html for more performance tips
    For example, if you are fetching 65 rows, make sure the fetch size of this view object is at least 66 so you can retried all the rows in one DB roundtrip.

  • Open Source - Commercial Software?

    There's a lot of great open source code out there that comes in really handy for all sorts of common programming tasks. But upon reading carefully the licensing agreements, it seems to me that it's generally illegal to include such code in any standard commercial application.
    Example:
    A young programmer gets hired by a small software development company. The company gets a contract with a local business to write some custom applications for in-house use, and our programmer friend gets handed the specs. Several components of the software he is asked to write are already available as open source, and certainly more robust than anything he could write on his own.
    Legally, he only has two options:
    Convince his company and their client to release the final program as open source - even though it may have no use outside of their business and was never intended for public sale.
    Write all the code himself, ignoring the open source resources, taking much longer to create an inferior product.
    Does this make sense? Am I misunderstanding these license agreements? It would seem to me that, for instance, all those great and useful Apache products are perfect for commercial applications and indeed seem to be developed with that in mind. (I can't imagine using Log4J in a tiny program I hack out at home to organize my hard drive etc)
    Note that there is a difference between open source software (MySQL, Apache web server, other such apps), and open source tools (Log4J, Apache commons, many more) in that the tools are not really useful on their own but instead are used as part of other programs. The licenses seem to allow free use of the software, but require open-sourcing of any derivative software - meaning that a company can use MySQL as a database for anything they wish, but a developer working for that company can't use Log4J to write a frontend for that database without releasing the frontend as open source???

    But upon reading carefully the
    licensing agreements, it seems to me that it's
    generally illegal to include such code in anystandard
    commercial application.I don't think so, although I'm no more a lawyer than
    you are. The licence agreements vary widely. When I
    look at the agreement for log4j, for example, I only
    see the requirement that I have to put a copyright
    notice and an acknowledgement in my software. No
    prohibitions at all. That one's pretty
    straightforward. But I'm still trying to make sense of
    the LGPL.It all depends on the license.
    Apache license allows ANY use and license for software using it as long as the Apache license is made available with a mention that components under that license have been used.
    GPL on the other hand indeed requires that everything using any code released under GPL be released under GPL as well.
    So if you were to write a 10MB application using a single 1KB GPLd module you have no choice but to release all your code under the GPL as well. This makes code under GPL impossible to use in commercial products or anything for which code needs to remain in-house for any reason.
    Most other licenses fall somewhere in between. mySQL for example allows non-commercial use under any license but commercial use is barred unless you pay a license fee (in which case you get a different license).

  • New open source webmail available

    This morning AtMail has released a new version, an open source version. This is a true open source project and will be a great improvement over the existing horde and squirrel mail packages. The interface is based off of their existing simple ajax interface and has been under development in the corporate arena for a couple of years now. You can find the full details on the AtMail Blog (http://blog.atmail.com).

    Great tool, thanks a lot for sharing it.
    Installed it and built "Hello, world" extension, now trying to convert my existing extension project for this. Packaging CS5 / CS6 versions alone is priceless.
    Maybe a dumb question, but is it possible to switch .json and output name in command line? I have extension with 5 different versions, they have different licenses etc., so it would be great to type
    csxs package config1.json extension1.zxp
    csxs package config2.json extension2.zxp
    and so on? I'd put it all into one .sh script
    sorry if it's all already available and I just missed this part in documentation

  • I Need Information about  Open Source Java Client/Server Instant Messaging

    I need your valuable help and collaboration with the following issue:
    I need to know where can find a robust Open Source Java Instant Messaging Client/Server Application.
    I thank in advance for their valuable time. And for the attention and the collaboration lent to me.

    I was going to mention that right off, but since the OP is clearly unaware of the search engines on the Web, I thought I'd give him a hand. Jabber works pretty good - I tried it a while back and some of the clients were ... quirky.

  • [ANNOUNCE] Ourfaces: Open Source Customer UI Components

    Hi,
    we have started an open source project with the aim to provide commonly needed customer JSF UI components. The project's name is Ourfaces.
    We are not implementing the JSF standard but like to share useful UI components based on the standard under the Sun Public License. Therefore the components can be used freely, can be customized or enhanced by everyone, and improvements should be given back to the community.
    Our vision is to have all commonly needed JSF UI components available under open source license - ready to plug them into any JSF supporting tool.
    However, we are starting modestly: We enhanced the tree component provided by the reference implementation and set up a project at java.net. We are trying to get the first component running robustly. Next component on the roadmap is a table component.
    If you are interested have a look at
    ourfaces.dev.java.net
    If you think that we are on the right way and you like to bring us a step further towards the vision, please, send me an e-mail.

    Matthias Unverzagt

    Hi Matthias,
    Let me state upfront that I am running JSF1.0 and have some other apps running fine.
    I downloaded the new version. However, it looks a bit odd.
    I looked at the table examples.
    table/table.jsp is coded to use a tag called "ourfaces:panel_resultset". (Shown below) However this tag is not mentioned in the tld.
    Also, the tld for table is very small only two attributes.
    I tried to make the other examples work. But the tags are not even balanced. In:
    table/example1.jsp
    table/example2.jsp
    the view tag is not closed properly.
    As a result none of the table samples work.
    I do see the latest timestamps on the files.
    Please let me know if things are not quite ready yet?
    Thanks,
    Vinay

  • Open source /  Commercial version, it's up to you! Why not for ESB products

    Please comment this forum and help us to get Sun's support for Open ESB as we can get it for open-Solaris or Glassfish.
    Thanks
    Paul
    Extract from
    http://www.pymma.com/eng/People/Blog-Paul-Perez-Chief-Architect
    Jonathan Schwartz new policy
    Few years ago, Jonathan Schwartz replaced Scott McNealy as SUN Microsystems CEO. Swartz's first decision was to convert Sun into an Open-Source company. Consequently, Solaris OS, Application Servers and even the Java language were opened and their sources published. At present, Sun is viewed as a major Open Source actor.
    Sun�s new sales philosophy proposes, on one hand, its best products in an open-source format and on the other hand, commercial support and hardware. The best examples of this new philosophy are Open-Solaris and Glassfish. You can download these products, use them and test them. After you have built applications with these tools and wish to move into a production environment, you can buy support from Sun.
    Open source or Commercial version, it's up to you!
    Alternatively, you can as well buy commercial versions at the first place. Even if open sources and commercial versions are slightly different than the open-source ones, more than 95% of their code is originated from the same development branch. Example : SUN proposes its queue messaging system with two similar versions, respectively named �SUN QM� and "Open-MQ". The only difference is the amount you pay for the technical support.
    Everyone can find advantages in this sales policy on Sun products: companies and developers try and develop for free and can rely on Sun support in production. As a matter of fact, Sun uses these �free� products as Trojan horses to conquer new market shares, penetrate new companies and sell Sun hardware.
    Why not for ESB Products ?
    Unfortunately, there is a small issue in this picture: Sun's ESB platform is the exception in this sales policy. In Fact, Sun proposes two different tools for ESB developments. The first product. "JCAPS", is a commercial product inherited from Seebeyond. The second product, "Open-ESB" is based on JBI specifications (JSR 208) and was developed from scratch about 2 years ago.
    Alas, JCAPs and Open-ESB are definitely two different products.
    JCAPS ignores JBI specifications
    JCAPS connectors are based on JCA specifications and not on JBI.
    Open-ESB development process is based on Web services specifications, JCAPS not.
    JCAPS and Open-ESB developments are not compatible.
    Hundreds other differences can be found between the two products.
    We can understand that for a while, for technical, marketing or business reasons, a company supports more than one product lines with the same functionalities. IBM does it and Oracle buying BEA will do it also.
    However, there are several things that Pymma would like to understand:
    Why the download of JCAPS is only available for authorized JCAPS Partner ?
    Why SUN does not provide support for open-ESB as it does for Glassfish, Open Solaris or Open MQ ?
    Why JBI or Open-ESB are never mentioned at most ESB seminars organized by Sun Centres in the UK ?
    Why Sun marketing, Gurus or consultants are prolix about JBI in the public lectures and technical forums, and at the same ignore Open-ESB when they advice companies ?
    Is the policy of Jonathan Swartz policy only applicable for Java Legacy applications (Application Server, Message queuing�)? not for ESB tools ?
    Of course, we already asked these questions to SUN but we never got clear answers.
    Thanks for clarifying Sun's position
    Many companies believe in JBI and their developers spend time and energy working on Open-ESB . These companies would certainly be interested to hear Sun's explanations on the above questions. They probably want to be sure that Open-ESB will not be just a prototype for the new JCAP version (only reserved for SUN JCAPS Partners). They certainly want to be credible by proposing SUN's professional support on Open-ESB as they do for Glassfish and Open-Solaris. After, they only need from SUN to clarify its position and give a clear prospective for the future of JBI and Open-ESB. We hope that through this blog Sun will hear us and we will give us clear answers.

    Hi Leonie,
    My iPhoto is iPhoto 11, version 9.4.2.  I believe my Aperture is the latest version but I don't know how to verify that when I can't open it.  I regularly accept any updates.
    How I restored my Aperture Library: I opened Aperture, clicked on Time Machine, and navigated to the Aperture Library that had been backed-up earlier in the day.  It took a while to restore. 
    When done, I opened Aperture (yes, at that point I could still open it).  It opened up on the still-empty Library, and I had to manually change it to the restored library, every time I opened aperture after that.  This was annoying, so, I then went to FINDER and deleted the empty Library.  I probably shouldn't have done this; I noticed it had the words "current default" in its filename. 
    From that point on, FINDER shows the restored aperture library (actually two restored aperture libraries, since I accessed Time Machine a second time to restore an even older backed-up version) but of course, not the empty Library that had had "default" in its filename.  And... I can no longer open Aperture.
    Hope you can help me, thanks so much,
    Glensdaughter

  • JAVA ME version Open Source

  • FLV player component. Open Source/commercial options?

    I'm returning to a project I've had on hold for a bit. We're
    now receiving
    .flv files from our video team and we need to displaying them
    on our site.
    Can anyone recommend some Flash FLV player components? Open
    source
    preferred, but commercial or freeware would be OK too if
    highly recommended.
    I've looked at OSFLV but that appears to require PHP back end
    scripts. Our
    site is ASP.net so likely wouldn't work.
    Ideally, it'd be a player that we could passe the FLV info to
    via the HTML
    (so that we could incorporate the embed markup automatically
    via our CMS
    back end).

    I beleave first of all you must decide how will you show your
    videos.
    Do you have FMS? Or is webserver the only you have for your
    site? If
    you don't have FMS and don't like to buy its license, then
    the only
    possible way is to use HTTP Streaming or simple progressive
    download.
    And you must seek for a player depending on your choice of
    the video
    delivery method. HTTP Streaming is a great choice if you
    haven't FMS.
    Though you need some scripting language/database engine at
    your web
    server and some custom SWF (Flash FLV Player). Standard UI
    components
    like FLVPlayback will not work with HTTP Streaming. Though it
    is not
    so dificult to create such player using any Flash MX version
    >= 7.
    You can find some brief description of HTTP Streaming if
    you'll try to
    search in Google:

  • Connecting Websphere MQ with another open source Queuing System

    Hi everybody,
    i work in a company that has already purshaced Websphere MQ as MOM, and we have some clients that unable to buy it. So is it possible that we find an open source queuing system such as ( openMQ, ActiveMQ ....) able of sending messages to a websphere MQ over a secured channel. I couldnt find any site on the internet that's telling me straightforward that this or that queuing system is able to connect with websphere MQ. So i'm begining to believe that it's impossible to have 2 different queuing systems working together and that it has to happen through an application server. Is that true ?? that every queuing system could only send messages to the same system and if not what open source queuing systems i can use with Websphere MQ ?? I'm really puzzled and hope anyone could help.
    Thank You

    Thanks. James.

  • Is JavaFX open-source ?

    A simple question : Now that the 1.0 version is here, is JavaFX open-source, and if so, under which licence ?
    Edited by: Traroth on Dec 4, 2008 7:24 AM

    Traroth,
    Let me add some details to my previous post.
    I think people don't appreciate the effort and difficulties involved in open sourcing a complex piece of software. Questions you have to ask yourself are:
    - Who is going the use the open source code and for what purpose? And how does that affect the goals and methodology?
    - Which parts of the stack do I own and can I release as open source? And what are the legal implications?
    - If there are 3rd party components I can't release - are there open source alternatives to fill the holes?
    - Without any alternatives to fill in for the 3rd party components, is the remaining open source code functional enough to be worthwhile?
    - What license am I going to use and does that license match the expectations of the open source project?
    - What related open source projects do I anticipate to interoperate and integrate with and what are the licensing aspects of that?
    - What model of participation and code accessibility works best for the goals?
    - How do I ensure the code that is in the open source remains up-to-date and useful?
    - Are forks acceptable and if yes, how does that impact the project?
    - Do I have resources maintain the open source code base?
    - Do I want to build a developer community around the code and if yes, what is the participation model for the community?
    - Have you double-checked the code and covered all the legal aspects necessary for a release into the open source?
    - etc.
    I think you get the idea. If you want to create a successful open source project all these questions need to be answered. And one major issue, as rexguo correctly points out, is that a major component of JavaFX (video and audio support) comes from a 3rd party vendor. Are there open source alternatives that could be used instead? If yes, how can that be implemented? If not, is JavaFX useful without high-performance cross-platform video/audio support?
    These are all points that need to be considered. Doing open source right is hard and takes time. That's not to hand-wave or preempt the discussion - it's just a reality.
    Hope that helps,
    -- Terrence

  • ANN: Ajax4jsf . New Open Source project that brings AJAX capability to JSF

    I would like to inform everybody about the new Open Source project - Ajax4jsf. It is hosted on java.net
    URL: https://ajax4jsf.dev.java.net/
    Ajax4jsf is a rich component framework that has been created exclusively to bring rich user interface functionality to the JavaServer Faces. It enables page-wide AJAX support instead of the traditional component-wide. It means you can define the event on the page that invoke AJAX request and area(s) of the page that should be synchronized with the JSF Component Tree after the AJAX request changes the data on the server according to the events fired on the client.
    Actually, ajax4jsf is based on the framework, Alexander Smirnov introduced last summer ( http://smirnov.org.ru/en/ajax-jsf.html ) . He is an architect for ajax4jsf right now.
    In addition to the features the previous version of his framework had, we already added the following:
    * Framework for support easy change "look and feel" ( skinning )
    * Support for handle off-page resources ( JavaScript, CSS styles, images, objects). Resources can be placed in application classpath ( for example, put in JAR), generated by program ( for example, paint images by Java2D or JAI ), with full caching support
    * Templating system for easy creating components renderers ( using jsp-like xml template instead of direct call write...() methods )
    * Special JTidy-based response filter - it can correct any HTML code from components to avoid incompatibilities with DHTML

    You can find a HTML/rich text editor as JSF component in the Mojarra Scales component library: [https://scales.dev.java.net/htmlEditor.html].

    Hi,
    Jim is right.
    There is no way of converting/upgrading a VI to the newer version of LabVIEW without its block diagram. Below are a couple of KBs that discuss this issue:
    How Do I Recover My Block Diagram If I Saved My VI with Options and Selected Remove Diagrams?
    What Does it Mean When I Receive the Message "LabVIEW load error code 11"?
