Weird Problem using Mnemonics

I have a weird problem with mnemonics:
When I use the mnemonic for my JMenuItem to open a specific JPanel the first time (e.g.) it works fine, then if I then close it for example and I still have the "Alt" key pressed I get the follwing exception??? :
java.lang.NullPointerException
at javax.swing.SwingUtilities.getWindowAncestor(Unknown Source)

Hope someone can help.

The mnemonic are not working because the Window or the Frame on which your components are added have lost the focus while pressing the Alt key.
I had faced the same problem , but I wanted a focus on JMenuBar which i had added to my frame.
when i was clicking the JButton using the mnemonic , i used to loss the focus. But afterwards i put a code in the actionPerformed part of the button to bring the focus to the JMenuBar.
rootFrame.getJMenuBar().getComponent().transferFocus();
rootFrame is my main frame on which the JMenubar is added.
I am using java 4 version.

Weird problem using bitwise opertor

Hi all,
I have problem with >>> (bitwise logical right shift) operator.
As an example, the result of this operator on 0x8000 value is not as I expect. As I read about this operator, the result of one bit logical right shift should be 0x4000 but the actual result is 0xC000, and as I see in my test applets there is no difference between >> and >>> operators. I tested this operator on both ST and Gemalto cards and the results were the same.
short n=(short) 0x8000;
short x= (short) n >>>1; //Here I expect 0x4000 but the actual result is 0xC000
short y= (short) n>>1; //Here as I expect the result is 0xC000Would some body please explain such weird action of this operator?
By the way, Is there any explicit operator for POWER operation in java card or I should use this bitwise operators instead?
-Thanks a lot
Edited by: bluefairy on Sep 16, 2010 12:50 AM

It is quite simple if you know where to look. Open up your Java Card Virtual Machine specification, if you can find it.
The >>> operator translates to the "sushr" bytecode.
Let's see what that means...
Forms
sushr = 81 (0x51)
Stack
…, value1, value2 −>
…, result
Description
Both value1 and value2 must be of type short. The values are popped from the operand stack. A short result is calculated by sign-extending value1 to 32 bits (footnote 1) and shifting the result right by s bit positions, with zero extension, where s is the value of the low five bits of value2. The resulting value is then truncated to a 16-bit result. The result is pushed onto the operand stack.
Footnote 1
Sign extension to 32 bits ensures that the result computed by this instruction will be exactly equal to that computed by the Java iushr instruction, regardless of the input values. In a Java Card virtual machine the
expression "0xffff >>> 0x01" yields 0xffff, where ">>>" is performed by the sushr instruction. The same result is rendered by a Java virtual machine.
So... What does this mean ? This means that your variable is sign-extended to a 32-bit value (meaning that the sign bit is propagated), THEN the right shift is performed.
See below my comments in the code.
short n = (short) 0x8000;
short x = (short) n >>> 1;
// 0x8000 is extended to 0xFFFF8000
// Right-shift by 1 bit --> 0xFFFFC000
// Cast to short --> 0xC000Hope this helps.
Cheers

Weird problem using "Login" in MaxL script

Hi there
I have created a MaxL script for loading som data into an Essbase. The script you can see below.
login 'user' 'password' on 'nkm18k14';
import database 'realtest'.'Loadtest'
data from text data_file '\\nkm18k00\Planning\Loaddata\lonbud.txt'
using server rules_file 'LonBLoad'
on error write to '\\nkm18k00\Planning\Errorlogs\realtest.txt';
When I try to execute it, as it is i get the following error "(3) Syntax error near ['$'], which im guessin is line 3, right?
When I remove line 1 (the login statement), the script runs just fine. What is goin on, any ideas?
I as a user have write acces to the network locations specified, could it be that the essbase uses som kind of system user that doesn't have acces to the network location?
Any valuable input will be appreciated.
Regards, Jacob

It's true that they are not "needed" from a security approach, but from a maintenance approach you still end up having to touch a large number of scripts if you store the connection details in them.
As a system user, you don't even have to change the password -- but if you have someone leave the company you may just want to.
Either way, I would never want to hard code connectivity details inside dozens of scripts when I can keep it in a single place.
Here is the MXL_Shell file for Windows -- you can obtain the SendEmail.exe from multiple places, but the syntax should be validated.
The location of the scripts, log files, and batch items can of course be modified to your liking as well...
The Errors that are ignored are stored in a file called "IGNORED.TXT" in the Batch directory (see below for what I ignore).

Weird problem using load() on a BLOB

I've got a weird bug when trying to load BLOBs via PHP. Here is the code:
<TT>
<? 
// Environment Variables so PHP can find Oracle 
putenv("TWO_TASK=gonk"); // Name of Oracle Server 
putenv("ORACLE_SID=ora10"); // Name of Oracle Instance 
putenv("ORACLE_HOME=/local/apps/oracle/InstantClient"); 
putenv("DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/local/apps/oracle/InstantClient");
// Oracle username, password and connection string 
define("ORA_CON_UN", "test"); // Oracle Username 
define("ORA_CON_PW", "blahblah"); // Oracle Password 
define("ORA_CON_DB", "ora10"); // Oracle Instance
// Connect to Oracle 
$conn = OCILogon(ORA_CON_UN, ORA_CON_PW, ORA_CON_DB);
// SQL Query to execute 
$query = "SELECT TESTNUM, TESTCHAR, TESTBLOB "; 
$query .= "FROM TESTING WHERE TESTNUM = 1"; 
$stmt = OCIParse ($conn, $query); 
OCIExecute($stmt); 
OCIFetchInto($stmt, &$arr, OCI_RETURN_LOBS);
$BlobNum = OCIResult($stmt,1); 
$BlobChar = OCIResult($stmt,2); 
$RawBlobBlob = OCIResult($stmt,3); 
$BlobBlob = $RawBlobBlob->load();
print ("BlobNum:".$BlobNum."\n"); 
print ("BlobChar:".$BlobChar."\n"); 
print ("RawBlobBlob:".$RawBlobBlob."\n"); 
print ("BlobBlob:".$BlobBlob."\n"); 
print("***\n"); 
?>
</TT>
Basically, the program works fine under PHP 4.0.5 on a TRU64 box (yes, the BLOB is displayed as a mess of strange characters, but that's cool - if I include a "header("Content-Type: image/jpeg");" line and only output the BLOB by itself the jpeg image stored in the BLOB is displayed properly). However, when it comes to running exactly the same program under PHP 4.4.1 on a OS X box, the program does not display the BLOB. The program is definitely loading the BLOB, as I can get the program to display how big (in bytes) the data in the BLOB is, but the OCI function load() is returning nothing when it should be displaying the data I have in the BLOB.

Anyone got any ideas on what could be causing this behaviour ? It's been driving me nuts for nearly a week!

Cheers, 
Rocky

Apple Banned me, because of a very weird problem with my "Factory Unlocked"

Hi Everybody! Im having a very weird problem with my unlocked iphone 4.
First of all, i would like to apologize because of my english, is not very good. My native language is Spanish.
Well.. Im from Mexico, and here we can buy the iphone Unlocked on the Apple Online Store.
Here's my problem. Apple has exchanged my iphone 3 times.
I returned the iphone the first time because the screen was totally yellowish, other than that everything was working great!, that was by the end of September.
On October 20th, i recieved my second iphone, and then a bigger problem started .
Before i continue, let me give you this information: here in Mexico we have basically 3 cell phone companies
1.- Telcel
2.- Movistar
3.- Unefon
OK, now on october 20th, i recieved my second iphone, and then procced to activate via itunes using my UNEFON sim card (microsim).
And every time i tried to activate it, only got this message onscreen:
http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s2/jorgelomeli/Screenshot2010-10-29at24915PM. png
I though something was wrong with my brand new factory unlocked iphone 4.
I have 4 more simcards from my brothers (they all had iphone 4 too)
I tried telcel sim card, and i could activate my iphone. Then i insterted the Movistar microsim, and it worked too!! But then when i put the Unefon sim, the itunes logo inmediatly appears on the screen asking to activate on itunes, and when i tried that, the only response i got was the image above saying " The Simcard inserted on this iphone does not appear to be supported"
Weird thing here is, that, when i put my Unefon sim card on my brothers iphone 4, it worked great! on all of them, internet 3g, phone, wireless , evrything!
I called apple support, and they exchange the iphone for another one.
I recieved the third iphone on October 29. Last friday. and guess what? SAME PROBLEM! different serial number, same week production (week 42) but exactly the same message on itunes.
Very, very frustrated, i called apple again, and after 1 hour with thechnical support, they told me " We are sorry, but we can only offer you, your money back, NO MORE EXCHANGES FOR YOU"
I said why?... i dont want my money back! i want an UNLOCKED iphone!, but they refuse to give me another iphone.
When i asked techincal support, why my unefon sim card worked great on all three of my brothers iphone but not on mine, he just told me, "I really dont know, i guess they just got lucky" ****, this answer put all my trust i had on apple products for years, right on the garbage.
Since they refused to give me another iphone, i accepted my money back, and inmediatly after i finished the call, i asked my brother to buy me one more time an iphone 4 using his name, and his credit card. Now i have to wait until November 8-12 to recieve my new iphone, hoping this time i get a REAL UNLOCKED iphone, and not a partially unlocked iphone.
btw. i even went to Unefon costumer service and bought a new prepiad line, with a new microsim, just to be 100% sure that this problem is not because of the sim. And again didnt worked on my iphone, but it worked on any of my brothers iphone4.
Serial numbers of the 3 iphones:
79039C0U* (this one worked great with Unefon, only problem was yellow screen)
85042GR4*
81042FJB*
What do you suggest me? any info would be really aprecciated
FYI i also restore 4 times the last iphone and nothing seemed to work, i use 3 different computers, Macbook Pro, iMac, and an Hp with Windows 7, and the same message on all three computers.
Wierd thing also, one of my brothers bougth an iphone 4 this last week too, but he bought the 16Gb not the 32Gb. His iphone production week is 42 also! and when i put my Unefon sim in his iphone works great!
I dont know what else i can do, I just need to have faith that my new iphone coming this november will be real unlocked, but what if i'll recieve an iphone and then the same problem?? time for android? just kidding really guys, what can i do? anyone with similar problem like me? i dont wanna use Telcel or Movistar, i wanna use Unefon, and thats why i bought an Unlocked iphone
btw: jailbreak is not a solution for me, because i always like to use legal software on all my apple products, and because of the warranty.

According to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1937, there are two official carriers in Mexico (Movistar and Telcel) and neither carrier offers an unlocked phone.

Calendar Server 3.5: Problem using user's ID with uniuser -mod command

When there are two users who have the same Common Name (CN) in LDAP but
different User ID's (uid
field), I have a problem using the uid
field as an argument to
uniuser -mod in Netscape Calendar
Server (NCS) 3.5. For example, there may be two users, User1 and User2, who
both have the CN "John Smith." 

User1
uid: jsmith2
sn: Smith
givenname: John
nscalxitemid: 10001:00314
User2
uid: jsmith
sn: Smith
givenname: John
nscalxitemid: 10001:00213

Let's say I want to change the value for nsCalOrgUnit2
for User1 to "jsmith." In NCS 4.0,
I can specify the uid as
an argument to uniuser -mod
. However, in NCS 3.5, if I specify the
uid as an argument to
uniuser -mod, the entry
for the user does not get changed. 

Calendar Server 4.0 

%uniuser -mod "ID=00314" -m "OU2=jsmith/OU3=People" -n 10001
 
uniuser: modified "Smith, John" 

(The LDAP entry for User1 also reflects this change.)

Calendar Server 3.5 

%uniuser -mod "ID=00314" "OU2=jsmith/OU3=People" 10001
 
uniuser: no need to modify "Smith,John" 

(The LDAP entry for User1 does not reflect the change.) 

%uniuser -mod "S=Smith/G=John/ID=00314" "OU2=jsmith/OU3=People"
10001 
uniuser: no need to modify "Smith,John" 

(The LDAP entry for User1 does not reflect the change.) 

If I use the command uniuser -mod "S=Smith/G=John"
"OU2=jsmith/OU3=People" 10001
in NCS 3.5, the script will change the entry of the first "John Smith" in the
database and will cause the LDAP entry for this user to be updated as well.
However, the entry modified may or may not be the correct one. So, in
NCS 3.5, is there a way to specify a particular uid
to ensure that the correct LDAP entry
is modified?

To modify a user's information using the uid
field in Calendar Server 3.5, change
the user.ini file. The
following steps show how to change a user's information by modifying the
.ini file: 

<OL>
<LI>Open the user.ini
file, which is in the path /users/unison/misc/user.ini

<LI>Add a section containing the desired changes. For example, 

[Test] 
OU2 = jsmith 
OU3 = People 

<LI>Run uniuser with
the following options: 

% uniuser -mod "ID=00314" -s Test 10001
</OL>

It turns out to be a problem with the user Keychain. It has some weird entry that was sending the wrong password. I delete all entries to the server and that corrected the problem

Problem using images in a button skin

So, I have a weird problem. I need to be able to see a button in design mode. My button is a custom component (a ButtonBase) with a skin. So, I left is a tiny bit of the default skin so that you can see what it looked like in design mode. Now, the paths to the images that will be used for the various states of the button are binded to strings passed from another subcomponent. There was no other way to get what we needed done, so it stays messy. Anyway, I don't get things to display correctly. Here's the code, and after an image for what I'm getting:

[/CODE]
That gives me this image:
And if I use the following code to resize it, I get this:
[CODE]
/* From the component, called from init(), which is called on creationComplete */
private function resizeEverything():void
var dummyImage:Image = new Image();
var pathToDummy:String = "assets" + upButtonPath;
dummyImage.source = pathToDummy;
thisBtn.height = dummyImage.height;
thisBtn.width = dummyImage.width;
dummyImage = null;
[/CODE]
If you have any idea what to do with this, let me know. I set the buttons to the exact height and width of the images I'm using when I first call them. I don't know how else to manage this. I want the faded white to be an exact mirror of the image, so that designers (not me) can move them around on design mode. Thank you!

Figured it out. The images I was given had large amounts of padding, and when I tried to auto-resize the buttons, Flash could never grab the image and therefore couldn't size off it, so the size of the component was forced to 0,0. It's all good now.

Iphone 4, having a weird problem /: can't seem to fix it!

So i have been having my iphone for a while, i have no warranty on the phone now. I have this weird problem that when i scoll down my messages and stuff i can see the outline of the message kind of show rainbowish colors that sort of show a bit when i scroll, right near the border of the message. its kind of annoying at times, also there are times when i press the home button, right when i get to my wallpaper, the outline of the letters when i text are there like very very faint, they disappear after for a while but then come back sort of like a glitch, and i cant fix it at all. then i would see faint horizontal lines, i would notice them when i use the camera, they disappear also. can anyone help me with this or suggest something?

Screen lag is normaly the LCD itself. But try restoring the iPhone. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

SAP GUI 7.10p15 weird problem on FB70

Hi all,
We upgraded SAP GUI 7.10 to patch level 15 from patch level 14 using the install server on our Windows XP machines. A weird problem seems to appear since then on FB70. You press once or twice the ENTER key, without filling any field on the screen and the GUI stays on a busy state forever (trying to constantly redraw the screen as to show an error message on missing account number). It results to 100% CPU usage on the client (Windows XP machines, tried on Windows 7 also with same result) and seems to also stress the SAP system a bit. The only way to stop that behavior is to use the Windows task manager and kill the busy window. I have not seen this behavior before and can't reproduce it in any other transaction until now.
I got access on a machine that was still on patch level 14 and works just fine. I did the upgrade and the same behaviour (busy, 100% CPU) instantly appears. Oddly enough, this behavior does not occur if I run FB70 throught the debugger (/h) in any case.
Have you seen something like this or do you have any clue why that weird behavior might appear?
Thank you very much in advance for any insight

Hello Artemios,
Yes, this seems to be a know issue with Patch 15. Please open a ticket on BC-FES-GUI to get a fix for that or wait until Patch 16 is released.
Kind regards,
Martin

Weird problem involving my external hard drive - help please!

I recently got a formac mini 120 gb firewire hard drive, which had been working fine with my g4 quicksliver.
i then went to a friends (g5 machine) with my drive and he put some data on it - bought it back to mine and managed to re connect the drive and take the data - no problem - very happy.
I recently gave my drive to another friend using a g5 and when it came back, nothing - i don't get the drive symbol appearing. turned the comp on and off many times and tried re-connecting etc still no drive appearing.
Then i took the drive to my friend with a mac lap top power book. connected there - working fine. Baffling. was happy that my data can still be accessed.
I know it's not the firewire cable because i can get power to the drive - i can see the red light at the fron on.
Can anyone help with this weird problem?
Thanks

Thought you could use this info about getting FireWire to work!
First, you should always Repair Permissions in Disk Utility before and after any update; I would do that now. If you installed your update with FireWire plugged in, your Mac may not recognize it anymore.
Try resetting your FireWire ports by disconnecting all FW devices, shut down your Mac and unplug it from AC power (wall socket) for 30 minutes. plug it back in and try FW.
If that did'nt work, download the combo update from this site (yours may be corrupt), not Software Update, disconnect all firewire + USB devices except keyboard + mouse, Repair Permissions, re-install update, Repair Permissions again + try. Yours might be the 10.4.10 Combo update. I have no idea since you did not fill out your specs. fully when you signed in to this site. Others reading, download the Combo that applies to your system. This link is for PPC Macs not Intel Macs.
If that still did'nt get it Zap the PRAM. While restarting Mac hold down the following key combo Command-Option-P-R. Keep holding those keys down till you hear the second start-up chime, then release.
For those of you with Macs that are not PowerBooks or iBooks, a bad internal battery can cause FireWire to not be recognized, so make sure it's good! Also, here is Apple doc.#88338 on getting FireWire to work.
Good Luck!
Cheers!

Desktop acting weird when using External Monitor.

Hey guys,
Just wondering if people have been having this weird "problem" when using an external monitor on OS X Mavericks. Though not really an issue that makes the OS/Mac usable, it's more of a quality of life thing (and it's really annoying for someone who likes things to be where I put them).
Anyways, the problem is that when I use my external monitor when at home, I have it set as the main display while the monitor on my MacBook Pro 15" acts as the extended/secondary monitor. No problems in functionality, BUT, the icons on my desktop always move while my external monitor is in use.
I usually do my work while using my external monitor and I use my desktop as my initial location to save my work files before moving them to an appropriate folder. However, revert back to not using the external monitor, everything just gets muddled up on top of eachother, stuff (sometimes) get missplaced and it just becomes a hassle to rearrange my desktop to how it was before.
tl:dr: desktop icons move when I use my external monitor as my main display.
So does anyone know if this is a problem that can be fixed, or is it an issue my monitor being a 3rd party model and old?

Hi BradnBeaverton,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The article below may be able to help you with this issue.
Whether or not you are using an Apple Cinema Display, the behaviour you are describing is the same:

Weird problem when executing an update statement

Please help me out with this issue. This a very weird problem i'm facing while executing the following update statement.
update tblo.S_TABLE c
SET (ACCNT_NAME, ACCNT_LOC)
=
(select NAME, LOC from S_TABLE1 p
where p.ROW_ID = c.ACCNT_ID)
where ROW_ID = 'XXXXX'
The statement executes perfectly fine in "SQL Plus" but when i try from my application or any SQL Tool that uses ODBC, it fails with the following error
<eb1>ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected
State:S1000,Native:923,Origin:[Oracle][ODBC][Ora]</eb1>
ODBC Driver Used: 9.2.0.2.0

Yes this could most probably be resolved by upgrading the driver. I'hv tried MS Oracle ODBC driver but that is even more problematic!
The applications works fine in another environment which uses a Merant ODBC driver. Thanks for your time and advice.

Weird problem with JApplet

I'm having a weird problem with JApplet. So first I create an Applet with this code
public class japp extends JApplet {
 public void init() {
 Container content=getContentPane();
 JButton jb=new JButton("Hello");
 content.add(jb);
}and with this in the .html file;
<html>
<body>
<APPLET CODE="japp.class" WIDTH="650" HEIGHT="500"></APPLET>
</body>
</html>
And opened it in Firefox, it worked as expected. However, when I change the code in any way, i.e.
public class japp extends JApplet {
 public void init() {
 Container content=getContentPane();
 JButton jb=new JButton("Goodbye");
 content.add(jb);
}and compile it, it still shows the old button that displays "Hello". I've tried deleting the .class file from before and recompiling, that doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.

Reloading the page usually doesn't work. You will need to open the Java Console and clear classloader cache (x). You can also use appletviewer for testing purposes.
