What are the advantages stateful session beans takes over than HttpSession

Hi
We can use HttpSession to maintain the conversational state with the client.
Then why we need to go for stateful session beans to maintain conversational state with the client.
What are advantages we can have while using stateful session beans ratherthan HttpSession????.
Regards
Dhinesh kumar R

I think we can use the magic word in the software development "seperation of concerns" ;-)
HttpSession is in the Servlet/JSP tier and is mainly used in the presentation logic tier (UI, page flows, navigation etc..)
where the stateful session bean's concern is to maintain a conversational state in a business logic tier.
Through this seperation its possible, that the business tier's state is undependant from the HttpSession and you dont create a hardlink that could cause problems later. Imagine having a desktop client accessing your business logic etc. not every client needs to be a web client ;-)
I hope that the answer helps you understanding the topic :-)

What are the advantages of forms10g developer suite over forms 6i

Hi All,
Am new to this Oracle Forms-10g developer, so I would like to know what are the new features of 10g over 6i. What are the main differences between oracle versions like forms-6i, forms-9i and forms-10g developer suite.
I even wanted to know what exactly is this OC4J Instance Start.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Chandra Sekhar.

is the most ignorant answer I've ever seen on this forum.That's quite a horrible distinction to possess here. Frank, it's clear you took my post as a personal insult for a product you've worked on in a major way. That was not my intent, and for that, I apologize. I hope you will take most of my other posts here so far (the overwhelming majority of which are to answer questions for others instead of seek help for myself) into consideration.
I stand corrected on overlooking the enhancements related to the interfaces with Java.
There are perhaps a number of viewpoints to Chandra's question. Our users, who are focused on using the applications to do their job-- well, having the forms environment moved from client-server to the web is almost irrelevant to them, and losing client-server was no advantage. I guess I looked at it too narrowly from a pure Forms programmer's point-of-view. One of the things you describe as a new feature-- the ability to see GIFs in the builder, well since I saw ICOs in the builder in 6i, I just don't see an advantage as much as a change/fix to make it work like before.
Since I never looked hard at 9i release (which I admitted), perhaps I am ignorant to some new features. I went to OTN and looked up the 9.0.2 documentation, and didn't see what these 20+ features might be. If you would point me to a specific document, I would sincerely appreciate it.

What are the advantages of MS SQLSERVER 2014 over 2012 in a developer point of view?

MS SQLSERVER 2014 is about to release with a powerful database engine.
I really like to know about new developer features of the coming product.
Can anyone provide information about new built-in functions and system SPs gonna introduce in SQLSERVER 2014.

SQL 2014 is a most exciting release or extremely dull depending on what you are looking for.
In terms of pure T-SQL enhancements there is not much at all. You can include index definitions in the CREATE TABLE statement, that is about all.
The two top main draws are writable columnstore index, which should make you you drool if you work with large data warehouses. And yawn if you area is OLTP.
For OLTP, the main attraction is In-Memory OLTP, also known as Hekaton. Tables that live in memory, but can be persisted to disk. Access to them is lock and latch-free. They can be access from regular T-SQL, but you can also write new type of stored procedures,
natively compiled stored procedures. With a write-intensive OLTP workload, you can achieve 20-30 times better performance. But the exposed surface area is very limited, particularly with natively compiled stored procedures.
There are also important improvements to AlwaysOn in SQL 2014, and I know of one site that went live on SQL 2014 CTP2 beause of this.
These are the three top attractions. And they are all only available in Enterprise Edition. (Well, Evaulation and Developer Editions too.)

FM7.1 to FM10 : What are the advantages?

Hello,
I have to use FrameMaker on Solaris, in a networked environment.
Currently I am using 7.1 and want to move to 10.
7.1 already has serious issues with importing pdf files.(http://forums.adobe.com/thread/891661?tstart=30)
You see I need to give some good reasons to my boss so as to convince him!
So 1st I want to know if there is a stable 10 ver. that works on Solaris.
2nd-ly it would be excellent if someone can say very briefly, what are the advantages/problems in ver 10 over 7.1 for Solaris environment.
Particularly looking out answers from the user "Error7103 "!
Thanks in advance,
DP

FrameMaker 8 supports Unicode too and is faster and more stable than FrameMaker 10.
Another question that has to be considered is:
SoLarry?
Do you want to make any investments in the former Sun platforms now owned by Leisure Suit Larry Ellison?
If you are running Frame native on Solaris, you are running on SPARC workstations. Sun discontinued those over a year prior to the Oracle Assimilation. Since then, even the Solaris x86 workstations are gone. Oracle is out of the desktop biz, except for thin clients. If a seriously nasty security exploit appears for SparcStations, ORCL may not patch it promptly. As your hardware ages and fails, you may find yourself getting parts from eBay.
I suspect that the bottom line for this inquiry is that it's not likely to be a an FM7 to FM8 upgrade on Solaris, but a total platform migration to Windows. The label on that can reads: Worms: species, quantity and condition unknown.

Accessing the same stateful session bean from multiple clients in a clustered environment

I am trying to access the same stateful session bean from multiple
          clients. I also want this bean to have failover support so we want to
          deploy it in a cluster. The following description is how we have tried
          to solve this problem, but it does not seem to be working. Any
          insight would be greatly appreciated!
          I have set up a cluster of three servers. I deployed a stateful
          session bean with in memory replication across the cluster. A client
          obtains a reference to an instance of one of these beans to handle a
          request. Subsequent requests will have to use the same bean and could
          come from various clients. So after using the bean the first client
          stores the handle to the bean (actually the replica aware stub) to be
          used by other clients to be able to obtain the bean. When another
          client retrieves the handle gets the replica aware stub and makes a
          call to the bean the request seems to unpredictably go to any of the
          three servers rather than the primary server hosting that bean. If the
          call goes to the primary server everything seems to work fine the
          session data is available and it gets backed up on the secondary
          server. If it happens to go to the secondary server a bean that has
          the correct session data services the request but gives the error
          <Failed to update the secondary copy of a stateful session bean from
          home:ejb20-statefulSession-TraderHome>. Then any subsequent requests
          to the primary server will not reflect changes made on the secondary
          and vice versa. If the request happens to go to the third server that
          is not hosting an instance of that bean then the client receives an
          error that the bean was not available. From my understanding I thought
          the replica aware stub would know which server is the primary host for
          that bean and send the request there.
          Thanks in advance,
          Justin


          If 'allow-concurrent-call' does exactly what you need, then you don't have a problem,
          do you?
          Except of course if you switch ejb containers. Oh well.

What are the advantage of using a passive monitoring technique ?

What are the advantage of using a passive monitoring technique

Hi Plawansai,
I saw your question that is still unanswered.
I believe an advantage of using a passive monitoring technique is that it won't interfer with live traffic, as it does not inject traffic into the network or modify the traffic that is already on the network.
One drawback anyway, is that post-processing time can take a large amount of time with passive monitoring!
A combination of the two monitoring methods seems to be the route to go.

Mobile hotspots---what are the advantages? better reception?

What are the advantages of getting a mobile hotspot---such as the Verizon Jetpack 4G LTE Mobile Hotspot MiFi 4620L---over simply using the hotspot feature of a tablet (such as the Samsung Galaxy 7.7" or a Motorola Xyboard 8.2") or smartphone (such as the Samsung Stratosphere)?
More specifically, is the reception better? For example, in an area of marginal data signal strength, would the mobile hotspot be more likely (as a sort of specialized device) to get a usable signal than would a mobile-hotspot-enabled tablet or smartphone?

Mobile Hotspot devices like the MiFi products are likely to be more configurable than the hotspot features you are provided with by your smart phone/tablet.
Probabally the biggest difference is that a MiFi can support more devices than your smart device. Another example would be purchasing a larger battery for a MiFi. Running a hotspot feature on your phone will drain your phone battery quicker. Haveing a MiFi may extend your battery life and connection sessions simply because the connected devices and mifi do not rely on each other for power. As AZ mentioned, performance will boil down to the hardware/radios that have been installed. More powerful equiptment will always perform better.
In reality they both do the same thing, provide you and others a connection to the internet that you can bring where ever you go.

What are the advantages..

Hi friends,

Hi Kanna,
        For Dynamically componentised you need to use controller.In the main page you partition for what you want to present dynamically and then call controller as a response to the user.What the action you have take in case of Page flow logic(Event Handler) need to be placed in controller.
Using the MVC design pattern has the following advantages:
·        Structuring BSP applications is simplified, since the view is cleanly separated from the controller and the model. This not only facilitates changing BSP applications, but also considerably improves their maintenance.
·        You have the option of generating program-driven layout. The HTML/XML output is therefore created by program code instead of a page with scripting.
·        Navigation using the <bsp:goto> element and call using the <bsp:call> element. The advantage of using <bsp:goto> navigation over redirect is that there is no additional network traffic. Furthermore, you remain in the same work process, which can have advantages for creating objects and memory space. The call using <bsp:call> element is more variable than adding them using INCLUDEdirective, since it is triggered at runtime.
With the call option using <bsp:call>, you can also distribute the user interface into components.
·        Optimized performance due to fewer redirects.
·        Intuitive and east-to-use interface for application development.
Main advantage of MVC is that you can keep these(Model View ,Controller) separately.If you need to change in logic you do not have to worry about presentation(View).

Albert

what is workflow ? What are the advantages of using workflow? What are the steps for building a workflow ?

Hi Leela,
Your question is very straight question.
Better u can follow these links.

http://www.esnips.com/doc/991843e0-8686-4949-94b9-f45d90081b22/workflow
And i'll give some theory answer for ur questions
i.e.,SAP Business Workflow can be used to define business processes that are not yet mapped in the R/3 System. These may be simple release or approval procedures, or more complex business processes such as creating a material master and the associated coordination of the departments involved. SAP Business Workflow is particularly suitable for situations in which work processes have to be run through repeatedly, or situations in which the business process requires the involvement of a large number of agents in a specific sequence.
You can also use SAP Business Workflow to respond to errors and exceptions in other, existing business processes. You can start a workflow when predefined events occur, for example an event can be triggered if particular errors are found during an automatic check.
SAP provides several workflows that map predefined business processes. These workflows do not require much implementation. For an overview of these SAP workflows, refer to Workflow Scenarios in Applications.
Integration
SAP Business Workflow uses the existing transactions and functions of the R/3 System and does not change the functions. You can combine the existing functions of the R/3 System to form new business processes with SAP Business Workflow. The workflow system takes over control of the business processes. If you are already using SAP Organizational Management, you can use the organizational structure created there to have the relevant agents carry out the individual activities. It is possible to have an activity carried out by a position. This ensures that the respective occupiers of the position can carry out the individual activities during execution of the workflow. This means that personnel changes in your organization are taken into account immediately in the execution of a workflow.
Features
SAP Business Workflow provides a number of tools for defining and analyzing workflows as well as for monitoring operation.
The Workflow Builder is for displaying and making changes to workflows. You can make small extensions directly to the original workflows supplied by SAP, such as carrying out your own agent assignments or changing deadline monitoring.
There are several Workflow Wizards to support you in the definition of workflows, with which you can create specific parts of a workflow. The Workflow Wizard Explorer gives you an overview of the existing Workflow Wizards.
In order to make the functions of the R/3 Systems available to a workflow, you use business objects, which you can define and analyze in the Business Object Builder. These business objects are made available to the workflow in reusable tasks. The Business Wizard Explorer gives you an overview of all existing tasks.
The end user receives information about the activities they are to carry out in their Business Workplace. This provides them with a central overview of all the activities that they are authorized to carry out. They can commence the activities from here.
Several tools are available to the workflow system administrator, with which they can control and analyze the current workflows. The workflow system administrator is notified of problems automatically by the system.
Workflow tutorials with step-by-step and with screenshots are available at http://www.****************/Tutorials/Workflow/Workflow.htm

What are the advantages of Using SAP ?

what are the advantages of SAP when compared to other technologies?
what are the basic advantages of SAP

SAP's R/3, introduced in 1992, is the most used ERP system in the world.
The R/3 software package is designed to allow businesses to effectively and efficiently operate a variety of business processes within a single integrated information system.
The software is customizable using SAP's proprietary programming language, ABAP/4. R/3 is scalable and highly suited for many types and sizes of organizations and runs on six different platforms.
SAPu2019s R/3 has been designed to be the best ERP system in the four areas of human resources, financial, supply chain management, and marketing. R/3 is also an international product, and meets the local fiscal, language, and tax requirements of most countries.
SAPu2019s R/3 is very versatile, as it will operate on six different platforms, including the recently added Microsoft NT.
The R/3 package includes several very attractive features like it has a three-tier client/server system. Providing three tiers offers scalability and easier adaptation to the specific needs of large companies and fast-growing companies.
SAPu2019s R/3 is available in 14 different languages (German, English, Spanish, etc.) and also incorporates multiple currency features that provide essential information processing capabilities for multinational corporations.
R/3u2019s modules are organized by the functional areas of financial, human resources, supply chain management, and marketing. While information is entered separately for each specific module, the modules are fully-integrated and provide real-time applications. This means that data entered into one module is immediately and automatically updated and reflected in all oft the functional areas.
R/3 is composed of a single, virtual file structure with no subsystems.
In addition, SAP has released u201CMySAP.comu201D which is software that provides for data interaction and processing connections with the Web.
Financial and managerial accounting tools in SAP R/3 are contained in the financial accounting (FI) and the controlling (CO) modules. The General Ledger function in the FI module provides a comprehensive record of all information needed for external financial reporting. The accounting data is complete and accurate because the SAP system fully integrates all business transactions that were entered from all the operational areas of a company. In addition to the FI and CO modules, the SAP system includes the Investment Management (IM), Sales and Distribution (SD), Materials Management (MM), and Human Resources (HR) modules.
Management accounting tools in SAP R/3 are cost center accounting, internal orders, product costing, and activity based costing, profitability analysis and profit center accounting.
SAP R/3u2019s accounting features are modeled on German approaches to accounting, and thus they are well-organized and very efficient in processing accounting information and providing accounting statements and financial reports.
As stated previously, R/3 offers multiple currency features and a three-tier system that is capable of meeting very high demands from the accounting system for either transaction processing or financial reporting.
SAP was the first to implement integrated treasury capabilities. This attractive feature allows a corporate treasury department to function as an in-house bank by automating the control of cash flow, investment trades, and portfolio management.
R/3 provides check writing capability in its Accounts Receivable component which very few other programs offer.
Additionally, there is equal access to all data in the system. This means that personnel can access financial data directly from a computer screen rather than physically meet with the treasurer, controller, or some other similar person. In other words, R/3 offers real-time, immediately updated reporting.
R/3 also provides for a "single data entry point" where the data entered from any location is instantly sent to all other appropriate modules in the ERP system.
The accounts payable component of SAP R/3 contains four types of transaction blocks namely:
● The audit block● The receiving block● The vendor block● A manual block
These blocks make it much less likely that improper payments will occur.
SAP R/3 is organized with the concept that a business operates as a series of processes, which means that the company implementing R/3 may have to change and reorganize itself to properly fit with R/3 and use it effectively.

What are the advantages and disadvantages to cookies?

Ok, so I am required to interview some expert for a Final in college. I choose to do my final on cookies throughout the different browsers. The downside is that it is nearly impossible to get a one-on-one interview from an expert in this field. This is my next option. So here are my questions, and I greatly appreciate the help.
1. What are the advantages and disadvantages of cookies?
2. Where are the cookies stored, and is it possible for someone to access that information?
3. You hear horror stories of hackers accessing the different cookies saved on a person's computer, and from there gradually piecing together enough information about that person, to hack into nearly every account they have. How probable is this? What safeguards can a person take against this happening?
Once again, thank you for any help received.

I attended uni back in the 70's, and as I recall we had to do some actual research for our term papers - like from books in the library, and needed to "document" our research in a footnote for each page.

8 bits vs 32 bits? What are the advantages?

Hi, sorry about his basic question, but, what are the advantages of working in 32 bit mode? Is a broader, deeper color range available?
Apparently some tools only work in 8 bit mode -- so is 8 bit still the typical work environment?
Thanks

This a huge, complicated and confusing subject which cannot be explained in a few lines here:
Trying to take your questions one by one:
32-bit per channel and HDR: This is a procedure where you can combine a number of digital photographs which were taken with differing exposures for the highlights and for the shadows and combine them into a single image in order to retain a wider dynamic range. (The results that I have seen from the use of this technique have mostly been somewhat bizarre and perfectly hideous!).
>For instance, when someone saves their 16-bit ProPhoto RGB image ( a superwide gamut space ), then converts to 8-bit Adobe RGB, and then converts to SWOP CMYK, the additional gamut found in the ProPhoto RGB will be clipped or reduced down to the Adobe RGB gamut.
We need to break that down a bit:
>Saves their 16-bit (per channel) ProPhoto RGB image ( a superwide gamut space ):
Correct.
>Then re-opens [or duplicates], the Saved 16-bit (per channel) ProPhoto RGB image and converts to 8-bit (per channel) Adobe RGB:
That produces an RGB file which has been "clipped" to fit the smaller AdobeRGB space but it is still a 16-bit (per channel) file.
>and then converts to SWOP CMYK:
Now you have CONVERTED your RGB colors to generate printing plates that will produce as close a replica as you can get to your Soft-preview of your (current) AdobeRGB image
when printed on a Press which EXACTLY matches the conditions dictated by the CMYK Profile that you used.
But you still have a 16-bit per Channel file UNTIL you change the Image mode to 8 Bits.
>if you retain the 16-bit ProPhoto RGB and go straight to SWOP CMYK, the color will be clipped to fit inside the SWOP space.
Not exactly: Your RGB image will be mapped to individual C, M, and Y Plates, and a Black plate will be generated (using the attributes of your specified CMYK Profile concerning GCR and Total Ink) in order to give you the best reproduction on Press (when real INK hits PAPER!) of your original RGB image.
But do read more on this subject because it is supremely important that you understand it fully.
I highly recommend Dan Margulis' "Professional Photoshop" for gaining a better understanding of this subject.

What are the advantages of compressor and it it even necessary

what are the advantages of compressor and it it even necessary?

Necessary for some and not for others – probably a large majority – who can by with the presets avalaible in FCX.
The users who need Compressor are those who want to control the parameters of the encodes to get the best possible trade-off between file size and quality. Or those who want to do things like standards conversions, complex frame speed changes, better re-scaling capabilities, de-interlacing, re-interlacing, output formats beyond which are available in FCX, chapter markers for DVD and Blu-Ray authoring, batch conversions for multiple purposes through droplets, access to clusters for faster rendering.
