What is the benefit of using managed paths?

Why not just put everything under /sites? What is the value in organizing sites under managed paths - aprt from it looking nice what other benefits does it bring? For one thing organizations change their structures sometimes drastically and surely admins
don't want the added burden of users not wanting their team site under a certain path anymore etc. Unless it brings some other value I'm struggling to see the point - can anyone enlighten me?
Cheers
Jonj

Hi Jonj,
Managed path is path for your site collection.It is defining the path for sharepoint items within the sitecollection.Without this a sharepoint site collection would not e able to recognize any item inside the site.Please read the more from
Use of Managed Path . This will clarify your doubt related to managed path use.

What is the benefit of using clipping paths for a knock out?

I found a posting saying they need someone to knock out the background of a lot of images using clipping paths. My question is, WHY use a clipping path? I know the rule of not using a selection tool such as the Magic Wand and then turning it into a clipping path and I know why that is. But if all is needed is for the background to be knocked out, why can't we just use the selection tool in the first place and just knock out the background from there? What is the benefit of that clipping mask?

Usually the term Clipping Path refers to turning a path into a clipping path (in the paths panel) for use in older programs such as PageMaker that don't support transparency.
For example if one wanted to import a file into PageMaker and only have a certain part of the document visible, one would make a path (or selection) around the object
and turn the path (or selection) into a clipping path. Sorta the same results you see in photoshop using a layer mask or vector mask.
Also clipping paths are used in certain printing workflows.
Without seeing the posting it's hard to say what they meant and in photoshop 6 vector masks were labeled as Layer Clipping Paths not to be confused with real clipping paths.
Old versions of photoshop also used the term Group With Previous to denote Create Clipping Mask.

Anyway clipping masks and clipping paths are two different things in photoshop.

What is the benefit of Using Data Adaptor

Hello
I wonder that What is the benefit of Using Data Adaptor ? I don't know TopLink Technology , inorder to using Data Adaptor I should know toplink but what is the advatages of using BPEL database adaptors in conditions thet I can make webservices by making plsql web services or exposing ADF application modules more easier?
I think that if I use Data Adaptor (based of Toplink) I can use JTA feature for transaction managment , am I thinking Correct?
for example I can invoke to webservice A and the B in BPEL process with two DB adaptores (by global transaction ) such that if A failes the process automatically roles back the B transaction without need that I manauly compensate the undo process
please help me ?

Thank you for your very useful comments about DB adapter
I tried again and I have Successfully deploy and test my DB adapter with using # for parameter.
But I have another question : We have ADF Application that using ADF bc for user data entry supporting in use case scenario , but we want to call web services (eg BPEL) in save operation instead of ADF application modules Normal commit !
If we want using Data adapter for persist the Data that user entered by UI , we must write a lot of Insert or Update statements in DB adapter because of lot of database entities.
How can we shorten this production scenario in our Project?

What is the benefit of using J2EE for webservices?

(I posted this on google news group, but no one answer, sorry for the cross post)
This maybe obvious to some of you, but after I went over the
webservices tutorial from Sun, about XML RPC and JAXM, I don't know
what is the benefit of using webservices within J2EE container.
Please tell me about it.
My assumption is that RPC and JAXM both enables the communication, but
the managing of session, persistent, thread pool, connection pool,
database, etc, are all handled by the container. Well, I still hope
my assumption is true. However, from what I read, the tutorial does
not even mention the word beans. So, how to get a beans to talk the
JAXM language so that I can get all of the above features? Or am I totally off track here? if an enterprise bean is not needed, then how to get all the above benefits that the J2EE offers?
By the way, does Sun's RPC and JAXM has things such as quality of
service (such as request time out). They mention guarantee delivery,
but if a reply to my query come 5 minutes later versus instantly, then
I probably lost a customer already. RPC also has big limitation, Corba has asynchronous request, but Sun's RPC does not.
Thank you in advance for all comments and help.

Basic communication aside, J2EE is mostly a synchronous run-time environment. When asynchrony is introduced, a whole new set of infrastructure requirements is needed to support QoS and commercial-quality implementations. In other words, it's not just about API anymore, it's about reliable communication, exception handling, time outs, etc. You may want to look at this Q&A to see some of the benefits provided by J2EE as underlying run-time for orchestration:

What's the benefit of using Essbase?

What's the benefit of using Essbase instead of the OLAP option built in Oracle? Performance reason?
But Essbase is so huge and we just use a bit of its functionalities...

I hope you're comparing Essbase & Oracle OLAP.
Go through the Vlamis' presentation in 2008 at: http://www.vlamis.com/Papers/collab2008-presentation2.pdf
Both were compared under various heads like- Logical Structure, Data Storage, Dimensional Model, Loading Data, Aggregation, Allocation, Calculations, Scalability, Writeback Handling, Security, Administration, Access to Data etc.,

What is the benefit in using OID for names resolution?

I have been wondering about this for awhile. I have been working on getting this to work in Iplanet along with Pat Lehane ([email protected]), and it works now.
What are the benefits in using OID for names resolution when you can just use the static tnsnames.ora. Database and database names are not created dynamically and they don't change that often. Would creates a new database every day and has to worry about changing the static tnsnames.ora file. In my environment, we run Oracle applications from a server, so there is only one tnsnames.ora file, on the file server.
It would appear that using OID would cause extra traffic (LDAP lookups) on your network.
I would like some opinions from both Oracle and Oracle users. Thanks

hi,
A benefit of using OID for names resolution is that it allows you to centralize net8 naming (i.e., tnsnames) information in the same place (OID) where other types of administrative information (about users, enterprise groups, enterprise roles, etc) gets stored. If you are more comfortable using tnsnames.ora files for net8 naming, that is perfectly fine!
An important reason that Oracle had for providing Net8 naming functionality in OID is that the legacy 'Oracle Names' functionality of Oracle 7 will eventually be desupported. This is discussed in metalink Note #135696.1 on http://metalink.oracle.com .
Hope this helps.

What is the benefit of using POE than AC Power?

Hi,
We are currently research on what is the benefit of POE over AC Power for wireless AP.
Most of AP we are using is 1252 and 1142.
Anyone can tell the different?

Hi,
Try to plan to install both scenarios and you'll know the difference yourself.
Besides what Leo mentioned, imagine that you are going to use AC power and for every AP you are going to install a power outlet close to the AP to power it up.
Now, if later you decided to change the AP location you need to install a new power outlet in the new place. The old power outlet is usually left wihtout use. extra cabling, extra waste of resources (materials, man power...etc).

What is the benefit of using Firefox over Safari?

I am a long time PC user who just ran through her 5th laptop, 1 toshiba, 2 panasonics, and 2 dells. Finally decided to buy my first Apple product, MacBook Pro. Purchased yesterday and trying to learn the new system. My question is, what is 'wrong' with Safari? In other words, what is the benefit of downloading FireFox for the Mac? thanks!

I DID use Firefox on my PC.....very superior to Explorer. But since I have never used an Apple product before purchasing this MacBookPro yesterday, I have no idea what the Apple (Safari) browser is like. I don't have to bother getting used to Safari if the Firefox for Mac is a better product.

What are the reasons for using absolute paths to embedded objects in word?

Hello,
hopefully someone can answer me the question why word always stores the absolute paths to linked objects? We use Word for documentation and these documents are stored in a version control system and sometimes several persons are working on a document. Because
of the absolute paths stored in the document all users would need to have the same directory structure so that the links would work for every person.
For linked objects it's not even possible to change the absolute paths to relative paths.
Additionally I would like to know what the difference between a "Graphic" and "Picture" object is. A graphic can be inserted by selecting "INSERT" -> "Pictures" and a "Graphic" doesn't seem to have a field
function and always uses absolute paths. "Graphics" can be inserted by selecting "INSERT" -> "Quick Parts" -> "Field..." -> "IncludePicture" and it's possible to use relative paths for "IncludePicture"
objects and it's possible to show the field function of a "Picture" object.

Martin

HT201342 what is the benefit to using @icloud for email

Just wondering what the benefit is to using @icloud.com vs @me.com?

None, really. It's just an additional address that you can use if you want. Email sent to either address arrives in the same inbox. Apple is no longer providing @me or @mac email addresses, and is transitioning to @icloud going forward so they're giving existing iCloud users the new address as an option.

What is the benefit of using Muse over using a web template and managing it with e.g. Joomla?

I use templates as a start for creating websites, I add my own design, manage it with Joomla and have a company to host it. I have a CC licence so am able to use Muse, but why would I need to. How does it help make my life easier, reduce time to create a website etc? Just interested to hear the pros and cons.

What is the benefit of using BC4J?

Folks,
After working with BC4J for three months, I still can not convince my manager to use BC4J. His major arguments are:
1. Which applications or web sites are implemented using BC4J? Are they real application or just a demo. For the time being, I even can not show him a demo, not to say any real web applications.
2. His developers told him that the O-R mapping provided by BC4J, which is probabably one of the key benefit of BC4J can be easily coded manually with a couple of days work for the current task and we have the full control over our own code while BC4J is not an open source and the lack of the support from Oracle really worries him.
Can someone in Jdev team give me a clear evidence to convince him?
Thanks,
Yibing

[*]With regard to struts integration with BC4J, I have done some investigations of the new release and know that BC4JActionForm is only good for simple view and does not work for a joint table view as I have reported a few days ago in this group and no response is received yet.
This should not be the case. Should work for any view object. View objects can contain join queries with any number of updateable tables in them. Please email me the URL to the forum posting so I can track down the issue.
[*]I have been recently told indirectly from Oracle that the consulting group at oracle are not using BC4J and instead they think that BC4J only applies to simple applications with limited number of tables and relationships.
This is plain incorrect. We have very large applications using BC4J both internal in Oracle Applications, for Oracle iLearning, and many external customers. Many of these projects have involved (and are currently involving) Oracle Consulting. Not sure where got this information, but it is incorrect.
[*]Other commecial O-R mapping products such as top-link should be used for large applications
The key difference between Oracle9i TopLink and Oracle9i BC4J has nothing to do with the size of your project. The fundamental difference is that toplink is for customers who have already written a custom application framework and who require just a persistence architecture, because they've already hand-written code to implement all of the other J2EE design patterns that are required to build real J2EE applications.
Conversely, BC4J is for customers who want a complete J2EE Application Framework (and tightly integrated, award-winning toolset to go with it) to avoid having to write, test, debug, and maintain their own application framework.
There is simply no evidence to backup your statement that BC4J only works for small applications. I am aware of at least 20 (and by now after a summer full of training additional Oracle Apps development teams in BC4J, perhaps over 30) that are using BC4J for full-scale, self-service J2EE web applications. Our BC4J reference info pages (link in this thread above) have references to customers who are using BC4J for large applications as well.

What are the advantages of using LabVIEW projects in TestStand, as apposed to just a path to a vi

What are the advantages of using LabVIEW projects in TestStand, as apposed to just a path to a vi ?
I am modifying an existing workspace for a new product, and it seems like more work to add the vi's into a LabVIEW project
does it gain anything in the long run

Hi Rusty,
I wanted to quickly clarify on the integration between TestStand and LabVIEW Projects.
As Jeff mentioned, some of the big benefits of using LabVIEW Projects is to organize code and to namespace them.
For instance if you had a project called "Power Supply" that housed all your power supply code and had a VI in that called "Initialize", and another project called "Temperature Chamber" that also had a VI called "Initialize", both these VIs are namespaced by the project, so there is no longer confusion about which "Initialize" VI is being used.
Now from a TestStand point of view, in prior version of TestStand, we lost some of this benefit because TestStand did not know about TestStand projects and called VIs simply as un-namespaced VIs. However, in TestStand 2010 (released last year, free eval available at ni.com/teststand), we added the ability to (optionally) call VIs within the context of their projects. This means that:
VIs are now namespaced by their project, even when called from TestStand
VIs can use project specific constructs like NI-DAQmx tasks and conditional compilation settings
Note: When creating deployments, the VIs maintain their projects and namespacing, so this benefit holds true for deployments as well.
Additionally, someone had mentioned looking into using lvlibs to namespace your VIs for deployment. Two comments:
With TestStand 2010, this is no longer neccessary since the project itself namespaces the VIs
You might also want to look into LabVIEW Packed Project Libraries, which combined several VIs into a single file. Think of it as a DLL specific to LabVIEW that is as easy to call as normal LabVIEW VIs. TestStand 2010 can call VIs that are exposed by PPLs. In addition, the deployment utility can automatically pack your VIs into PPLs for deployment.
Hope this is helpful!

What is the best way to manage multiple ipods using the same itunes?

Hi Everyone
i am trying to manage three different ipods through the one Itunes, all with very different tastes, not sure if I am doing it the best or easiest way so does anybody have a simple solution on what you're supposed to do, to keep it all simple!
Cheers
Liv

If you have created a new Windows user account you need to log out and then log back in with your original user name. By default each Windows profile will have an independent iTunes library.
If instead you managed to create a new library within the same profile. click the icon to start iTunes and immediately press and hold down the shift key, keep holding until asked to create or choose a library. Click Choose and navigte back to your original which should be at <User's Music>\iTunes.
Your question as posed was:
What is the best way to manage multiple iPods using the same iTunes {library}?
in which case Selected Playlists is probably the best approach. Simply create a playlist for each device, Alice's iPod, Bob's iPhone etc. and sync the device with the appropriate list.
