Very useful tool for development.

Hi,
I don't really have a question but I was looking for somewhere to give feedback on this product as I have just finished a project where the Adobe PDF Test Toolkit enabled us to develop scripts to test for regression when creating a new version of the solution.
This in turn saved hundreds of hours and meant that we where able to deliver the solution on time.
Many thanks for the great work.
Cheers

    I'm having a wee posting spree today after lacking the inclination to respond to the same old threads for the last few days.    But I do love it when people get all in a tizzy complaining about stuff that is right under their nose (so to speak).   So I guess my criteria for responding is often based as much on how big a smile it puts on my face, as to how much I am helping the OP.   Unfortunately that irreverent approach gets me into trouble at times, and one of the moderators deleted one of my illustrated replies just a few days ago.  It took me a few minutes to work out why it had been deleted.  The subtext was 'risking one eye', and I eventually realized that the implied 'risk' could definitely be seen as offensive to some people.

  • Why should I adopt LABVIEW FPGA as a tool for developing my FPGA projects?

    Dear Friends, 
    Since I have started using LABVIEW FPGA, I got too many questions in my mind looking for answers! 
    1-      Does anybody can tell me “why should I adopt LABVIEW FPGA as a tool for developing my FPGA projects?”
    I mean there are many great tools in this field (e.g. Xilinx ISE, ….); what makes LABVIEW FPGA the perfect tools that can save my time and my money? 
    I’m looking for a comparison can show the following points:
    ·         The Code size and speed optimization.
    ·         Developing time.
    ·         Compiling time.
    ·         Verifying time.
    ·         Ability to developing in future.
    ·         …etc.. 2-     
    I’ve Spartan-3E kit, I’m so glad that LABVIEW support this kit; I do enjoyed programming the kit using LABVIEW FPGA, but there are too many obstacles!
    The examples come with Spartan-3E driver don't cover all peripherals on board (e.g. LAN port is not covered)! There is a declaration at NI website which is "LabVIEW FPGA drivers and examples for all on-board resources" Located at: http://digital.ni.com/express.nsf/bycode/spartan3eI don’t think that is true!
    Anyway, I will try to develop examples for the unsupported peripherals, but if the Pins of these peripherals are not defined in the UCF file, the effort is worthless! The only solution in this case is to develop VHDL code in ISE and use it in Labview FPGA using HDL node!?
    3-      I wonder if NI has any plan to add support for Processor setup in Labview FPGA (Like we do in EDK)?
    4-      I wonder if NI has any plan to develop a driver for Virtex-5 OpenSPARC Evaluation Platform ?http://www.digilentinc.com/Products/Detail.cfm?Nav​Path=2,400,599&Prod=XUPV5 
    Thnaks & regards,Walid

    Thanks for your questions and I hope I can answer them appropriately
    1. LabVIEW FPGA utilizes the intuitive graphical dataflow language of LabVIEW to target FPGA technology. LabVIEW is particularly nice for FPGA programming because of its ability to represent parallelism inherent to FPGAs. It also serves as a software-like programming experience with loops and structures which has become a focus of industry lately with C-to-gates and other abstraction efforts. Here are some general comparison along the vectors you mentioned
    Code Size and speed optimization - LabVIEW FPGA is a programming language. As such, one can program badly and create designs that are too big to fit on a chip and too slow to meet timing. However, there are two main programming paradigms which you can use. The normal LabVIEW dataflow programming (meaning outside a single-cycle loop) adds registers in order to enforce dataflow and synchronization in parity with the LabVIEW model of computation. As with any abstraction, this use of registers is logic necessary to enforce LabVIEW dataflow and might not be what an expert HDL programmer would create. You trade off the simplicity of LabVIEW dataflow in this case. On the other hand, when you program inside a Single-Cycle timed loop you can achieve size and speed efficiencies comparable to many VHDL implementations. We have had many users that understand that way LabVIEW is transformed to hardware and program in such a way to create very efficient and complex systems.
    Development Time - Compared to VHDL many of our users get near infinite improvements in development time due to the fact that they do not know (nor do they have to know) VHDL or Verilog. Someone who knows LabVIEW can now reach the speeds and parallelism afforded by FPGAs without learning a new language. For harware engineers (that might actually have an alternative to LabVIEW) there are still extreme time saving aspects of LabVIEW including ready-made I/O interfaces, Simple FIFO DMA transfers, stichable IP blocks, and visualizable parallism.  I talk to many hardware engineers that are able to drastically improve development time with LabVIEW, especially since they are more knowledgable about the target hardware.
    Compilation Time - Comparable to slightly longer to due to the extra step of generating intermediate files from the LabVIEW diagram, and the increased level of hierarchy in the design to handle abstraction.
    Verification Time - One of our key development initiatives moving forward is increased debugging capabilities. Today we have the abilities to functionally simulate anything included in LabVIEW FPGA, and we recently added simluation capabilities for Imported IP through the IP Integration node on NI Labs and the ability to excite your design with simulated I/O. This functional simualation is very fast and is great for verification and quick-turn design iteration. However, we still want to provide more debugging from the timing prespective with better cycle-accurate simulation. Although significantly slower than functional simulation. Cycle-accuracy give us the next level of verification before compilation. The single cycle loop running in emulation mode is cycle accurate simluation, but we want more system level simulation moving forwrad. Finally, we have worked to import things like Xilinx chipscope (soon to be on NI Labs) for on-chip debugging, which is the final step in the verification process. In terms of verification time there are aspects (like functional simulation) that are faster than traditional methods and others that are comparable, and still other that we are continuing to refine.
    Ability to develop in the future - I am not sure what you mean here but we are certainly continuing to activiely develop on the RIO platform which includes FPGA as the key diffentiating technolgoy.  If you take a look at the NI Week keynote videos (ni.com/niweek) there is no doubt from both Day 1 and Day 2 that FPGA will be an important well maintained platform for many years to come.
    2. Apologies for the statement in the document. The sentence should read that there are example for most board resources.
    3. We do have plans to support a processor on the FPGA through LabVIEW FPGA. In fact, you will see technology on NI Labs soon that addresses this with MicroBlaze.
    4. We do not currently have plans to support any other evaluation platforms. This support was created for our counterparts in the academic space to have a platform to learn the basics of digital design on a board that many schools already have in house. We are currently foccussing on rounding out more of our off-the-shelf platform with new PCI Express R Series boards, FlexRIO with new adapter modules, cRIO with new Virtex 5 backplanes, and more.
     I hope this has anwered some of the questions you have.

  • Why should we use WSDL for developing webservices

    I need to develop Webservice Application for our Client .
    I dont know anything about WSDL4J
    Hi from the net i found this
    "The Web Services Description Language for Java Toolkit (WSDL4J) allows the creation, representation, and manipulation of WSDL documents.
    Is the reference implementation for JSR110 'JWSDL' (jcp.org)."
    But anybody please tell me why should we use WSDL for developing webservices ??
    Is there any specific advantage we will get ??
    And Can body please point me a link where to start for working with WSDL4j ?
    Thank you very much

    i seriously doubt you want to use wsdl4j unless you are doing really advanced webservice work. assuming you are developing this webservice from scratch, you basically want to use JAXWS: define an appropriate interface and your value classes, and let JAXWS do the rest. metro is the JAXWS implementation included in the oracle jdk and it has great tutorials and reference documentation online. i'd suggest you start here: http://metro.java.net/getting-started/

  • Is Oracle Apex a freeware tool for development?

    Dear All,
    Is Oracle ApEx a freeware tool for development purpose?
    As per my knowledge as All Oracle products are free for Development purposes. Licenses are required only for professional usage.
    i.e for Customers who use Applications developed in Oracle Products.
    So I think Oracle ApEx is also a freeware Development tool.
    Is that right?

    Abhijit,
    Is Oracle ApEx a freeware tool for development purpose?
    Oracle Application Express can be used in conjunction with a compatible Oracle Database Server product for which you hold a license.
    As per my knowledge as All Oracle products are free for Development purposes. Licenses are required only for professional usage. i.e for Customers who use Applications developed in Oracle Products.
    I don't believe that any aspect of what you stated is correct.
    Oracle product downloads from OTN are free, i.e., there is no charge for downloading, and the use of the downloaded products are restricted by the license agreement that can be found here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/htdocs/devlic.html
    So I think Oracle ApEx is also a freeware Development tool. Is that right?
    Doesn't sound right to me, no, but "freeware Development tool" is your own terminology. Please refer to the actual license agreement for any Oracle product that you have questions about or contact your Oracle sales representative for further clarification.

    A year or so ago I had turned on a toolbar that sat at the top with the other toolbar, and had many tools for development and checking of websites. You could turn Java on/off, javascript on/off, turn on source view, and many other things. Now I cant find that toolbar. All that I can find now turns on a panel in the lower half of the window that probably does all the same stuff, but it takes up much more room. Where did that toolbar go? or was it an add-on or plug-in?

    It sounds like you may be referring to the Web Developer add-on.

  • How to use indesign for developing a magazine

    Hi Friends,
    i am using Indesign for the past 2 1/2 years. Now i have to use indesign for developing a magazine. But i come across few problems. Pls help me to solve.
    1. the page dimension is 210 x 297 mm. i want a bleed area of 5 mm on each side. Then should i have the document size as 215 x 307 mm (for one side). Or is there any way to mark bleed.
    2. Is there any scripts, especially to be used in pagination of the magazine.
    3. I have placed Auto page number in the master page, but when im placing picture in a page for the full extent, the page number is not visible (as it is in the mater page). Should i manually type the page number there or any other way to do it.
    4. Is there any exclusive tutorial to learn to the core about developing a magazine in indesign.
    Should i furnish any more details?
    Please help me in these problems. Thanks in advance to all.
    regards
    karthik.r

    1. the page dimension is 210 x 297 mm. i want a bleed area of 5 mm on each side. Then should i have the document size as 215 x 307 mm (for one side). Or is there any way to mark bleed.
    No you should make your indesign page size the size you want the magazine to be when trimmed. If it's 210 x 297 mm then make the size of your document that size.
    When you make a new document you can click the More Options to reveal the bleed setting. Use 5mm for all sides.
    Make your document using facing pages, you don't need bleed for the inside edges, as this for the spine. Make sure that all your images, backgrounds etc. go out as far (or beyond) the red line. You don't need to this for things that will not be near the edge of the page.
    Set up a "Safe Area" for your images, that will be an area roughly 5 mm from each side where no text or anything will go near the edge of the page. If it goes beyond this area you should consider extending it into the bleed area.
    DO NOT PUT TYPE near the edge of the page. Keep it well away, possibly 10 - 15mm.
    2. Is there any scripts, especially to be used in pagination of the magazine.
    Pagination is usually done by prepress when you send the final pdf. Setup your magazine with the pages flowing in sequential order, e.g., 1 - 100.
    Make sure the amount of pages in the magazine is divisible by 4. That is, a 94 page magazine would not do, as that's 23.5. But a 92 page or 96 page would be better because it's dvisible exactly by 4, ideal for printing.
    3. I have placed Auto page number in the master page, but when im placing picture in a page for the full extent, the page number is not visible (as it is in the mater page). Should i manually type the page number there or any other way to do it.
    If you want page numbers on pages like this, you should think about putting master items on a new layer and sit that layer on top of all the other layers. You should also consider making different pages, based on the current Master Page (making child and parent masters
    http://en.allexperts.com/q/Adobe-InDesign-1839/Parent-child-master-pages.htm
    http://www.peachpit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=1323251&seqNum=12
    http://www.adobepress.com/articles/article.asp?p=1324255
    You can google more yourself
    But the idea is to make master pages with different coloured folios, like white folios for pages with dark images, as black folios would not show up. But it's up to you. It's best not to manually inser the page numbers.
    4. Is there any exclusive tutorial to learn to the core about developing a magazine in indesign.
    Three are no hard and fast rules about developing a magazine in InDesign. Follow a logical procession of thought. Start with thumbnails, develop sketches for each content, create content in InDesign, proof it, etc.
    There are some pointers here http://www.graphicdesignforum.com/articles/Magazine_layout.htm
    You should look into Grids http://www.thegridsystem.org/categories/templates/
    http://graphicdesign.about.com/od/layout/a/grid_system.htm
    http://desktoppub.about.com/od/grids/Grids_for_Desktop_Publishing.htm

    The rest is up to you.

  • Tools for Developing portal content

    Hi Experts,
    Do we have any other tools like  WEB PAGE COMPOSER for developing  the portal content ?
    Thanks
    Suresh

    Hi Suresh,
    There are options which you can avail for creating portal contents.
    1). SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio.
    Based on open source Eclipse IDE & looks very essential for extensive Java projects and supports standard technologies as well from the SAP technologies & the Infrastructure as well.
    Can work well in both Java & ABAP platforms as it supports different perspective for both of them.
    2). SAP Enterprise Portal Developer Kit (PDK).
    It is a collection of information, samples & tools for use by developers.
    Sample Applications include Portal Data Viewer, OBN, WebDynPro, HTMLB, EPCF & few more.
    3). SAP NetWeaver Visual Composer.
    It is a powerful tool for creating the Portal contents using a visual interface rather than stressing more on writing code.
    Hope this gives you a fair idea.
    Do reward points if found helpful.
    Thanks & Regards
    Gourav.

  • Tools for Developing/Customizing Forms for Oracle Apps R12.1

    Hi All,
    Could you please help me identify the tools and correct version for developing and customizing Forms for Oracle E-Business Suite R12.1?
    Regards,
    KK

    Also, could you please elaborate your 2nd point regarding template.fmb The Oracle EBS uses a framework. Starting any new (custom) form for the EBS should ALWAYS begin with the template.fmb to ensure your new form has all of the required objects to comply with EBS Forms development standards. You might want to take a look at the Oracle Applications Documentation library. Select your EBS version and then scroll to the Standards section and review the following documents:

  • IS designer a good tool for development applications

    Rightnow we are on oracle 7.2 so i wanted to know whether i can use this case tool for all my application development in the future.
    waiting for your valuable suggestions

    No. In my testing of it I found that it failed to do most of what it claimed it would do. I say avoid it.
    It is only good for paving the vendors pocket's with gold.

  • When to use webdynpro for developing reports instead of ABAP Editor in R/3

    Hello Frends,
    I am new to Webdynpro ABAP. I just wanted to know when we should used webdnpro ABAP for developing reports, instead of using ABAP Editor in R/3. If you can give me the details it will be helpful.
    Thanks,
    Regards.

    Hi navnetha,
      As mishbah told you , that there is no hard and fast rule for reporting throught  webdynpro.It all depends on client requirement .Now if you want to develope alll the reports by using webdynpro without your clients request , then you need to explain the advantages of webdynpro reporting above abap reporting.
    for e.g.  Webdynpro reports can run on browser, They can be posted on portal, Easy handling and maintenance and reusability.
    Other than this i guess if you can show some business profit to the client, then i think every client would like to go for webdynpro reporting.
    regards
