What is the best way to dynamically create table partition by year and month based on a date column?

Hi,
I have a huge table and it will keep growing. I have a date column in this table and thought of partition the table by year and month. Can any you suggest better approach so that partition will create automatically for new data also along with the existing
data? Nothing but automatically/dynamically partition should create along with file group and partition files.
Thanks in advance!

What is the best way is to create a web app item collection which will contain only the listings where addressstate="ABC".

What is the best way is to create a web app item collection which will contain only the listings where addressstate="ABC".

How many systems have you used Robert?
This is the only system you can not have all item data at least in JSON format and all of it. Big commerce has a lower limit and as I have said in every post related to a limit - I understand the function, but you can still make the requests as just one example (front and back)
Same with API Robert.
Firstly - the SOAP API request on say products gets you ALL the products, if you do something through a REST API request you can make the requests to get all the items to complete your process of what your doing - You have to otherwise the API is pointless.
Ok if the normal modules can not iterate through if there is a module_data solution, and web apps will get there hopefully sooner then later and you do have the sql query (where) for your filter which is great BUT, if you want to implement a solution across everything you cant do that with the liquid implementation.
This also flows through to the JSON everywhere in concept which is fundamentally flawed for the same reason... And again referring other like services where a hard API has a limit but the JSON request returns everything.
How those work varies from the method of request, some will only update every day, xxx time (Depending on cost of the plan) so its a cached version of data, to the ones that limit that request to x number of times per set time/day.
That is how the actual rest of the world works, varied solutions but they are solutions. BC know they have a few limitations, there clearly is the need for things, there are a varied set of options... It is just a matter of engaging in it and offering up a solution for it, silence just creates frustration.

What's the best way to transfer everything from my 5-year-old iMac to my 1-year-old iMac?

What's the best way to transfer everything from my 5-year-old iMac to my 1-year-old iMac?
I'm doing role reversal with these two. The newer imac is becoming our business computer, the older one will be our personal computer from now on until it gives out. For the record, I have Carbonite on the business unit. Should be a no-brainer, right? (Which is precisely why I'm asking!)
Thanks for whatever timely and accurate advise you may have.

Thanks. I stumbled across migration assistant later that afternoon in a google search. Just finished using it today to do the deed. Appreciate your quick response!

What's the best way for a web app to handle logins and sessions?

I'm deploying in JBoss, using JSF. As is often the case, I keep User information in an entity bean. My question is, what's the best way to handle this bean?
My inclination is to create a login page with a LoginBackingBean atached to it. When the user attempts to log in, it will see if there is a User entity bean that corresponds to the given name and password. If there is no User bean that matches, obviously we show an informative error screen.
But what happens if there is a valid user?
In the plain old Servlet world (without EJB / J2EE) I would just put the User object (it's an object, not an EJB) into the HttpSession, and I would create a Filter that would check for the presence of that User object, and I would map the filter to something like /members/*, and that would be it. I would use Hibernate to persist the User object, and there would also be a filter that creates a Hibernate session and stores it in the Request so that the User object would work and persist.
How do I do this within the J2EE / EJB world?
My first thought would be to just do the same thing. Install the User bean into the HttpSession, and create a filter and do all the same stuff. Is that the right way to do it? It would work pretty well with JSF because I could just access things in the normal JSF way: #{user.firstName} would find the "user" object in the HttpSession scope. So that's good.
One question that comes up from that is if the user makes some change to the User object that is in the Session scope, will the EJB automatically do the right thing and make those changes persistent? Is there anything else I need to do?
I'm new to the EJB world, but from what I can see so far, it seems like it's the best way to think about a web application.
Thanks

hi ,
i think the best way is to create java beans ,in that bean call your EJB ,
and check the validation over there.
and make that bean scope to session.
in each and everypage try to check the session ,if it is not valid then forward to your login page...
otherwise continue to give access to him like guest

What's the best way to import ALL of my photos (34k +) and then share?

*Part I - importing:*
I've got approximately 34,400 photos on a networked drive that I need to be able to control using iPhoto. I want these files to stay on the network drive, but also be controlled by iPhoto (organized by date). Right now our photos folder on the network drive is a bit of a mess, some folders are named by date only and some are named by the event itself ("birthday 2009", etc.). I want this naming to go away in place of the iPhoto method (by date only). FYI, I am familiar with how to get to the "original" and "modified" folders/files within the iPhoto Library.
Question: Is there a way to get iPhoto to organize the photos (all by date) an leave the original photos on the networked drive? or do I need to:
> Import ALL photos into my iPhoto with the "import photos into iPhoto Library" option checked (iPhoto copies all original files to my laptop hard drive)
> Then manually move the file structure (all new folders created - by date) back to my networked drive
> THEN...remove all photos from the iPhoto Library and re-import the newly organized photos from the network drive but unchecking the "import photos into iPhoto Library" option.
Right now, both of our MacBook Pro's use iPhoto to access those photos independently of one another (each laptop does their own thing). This also creates problems because when files are imported on my laptop they are saved locally (on my laptop) and not on the network drive, same goes for my wife's laptop. Then she's not able to see those new photos.
*Part II - sharing:*
I'm also in the process of trying to figure out the best way to share all of our photos between our different laptops. Using the "sharing" function in iPhoto isn't ideal since that requires both laptops to be on.
My understanding of sharing the iPhoto library itself (having it saved on the networked drive) between two laptops is that only one laptop can access this library at a time, or there's potential of having the files become corrupt (two laptops trying to access the file at the same time).
Question: What's the best way to share photos between two laptops?
Thanks in advance

Is there a way to get iPhoto to organize the photos (all by date) an leave the original photos on the networked drive?
Yes there is. But I don't recommend it as a way of working with iPhoto.
Simply go to iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> Advanced and uncheck 'Copy Files to the iPhoto Library on Import'.
Now iPhoto will not copy the files, but rather simply reference them on your HD. To do this it will create an alias in the Originals Folder that points to your file. It will still create a thumbnail and, if you modify the pics, a Modified version within the iPhoto Library Folder.
However, you need to be aware of a number of potential pitfalls using this system.
1. Import and deleting pics are more complex procedures
2. You cannot move or rename the files on your system or iPhoto will lose track of them on systems prior to 10.5 and iPhoto 08. Even with the later versions issues can still arise if you move the referenced files to new volumes or between volumes.
3. Most importantly, migrating to a new disk or computer can be much more complex.
The problems arise when you change the path to the Files. iPhoto has no way of reconnecting that path and you could find yourself resolving aliases one at a time for all 34k Photos.
Other apps, such as Aperture have a command to re-connect with the master files.
FYI, I am familiar with how to get to the "original" and "modified" folders/files within the iPhoto Library.
Good for you but never, ever access the files this way. Period. Within the iPhoto Package File there are no user sercviceable parts.
All your work gets done in the iPhoto Window. Everything you need to do can be done from there - and must be.
Then manually move the file structure (all new folders created - by date) back to my networked drive
Never, ever break up the internals of the iPhoto Package File. You'll break iPhoto if you do.
Also, what format is that Networked Drive? iPhoto needs to have the Library sitting on disk formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Users with the Library sitting on disks otherwise formatted regularly report issues including, but not limited to, importing, saving edits and sharing the photos.
Question: What's the best way to share photos between two laptops?
If simultaneous sharing is your goal then you need to use a Media Server app. iPhoto isn't one.
The key really is the format of the NAS. IF you can make it Mac OS Extended (Journaled) then you can easily store your Library on it and share it. Otherwise you need to use another application for the job.

What is the best way to run windows on my Mac? And What are the pitfalls I should watch for?

What is the best way to run windows on my Mac? What are the pitfalls/

If you need Windows as your main operating system you would be better off buying a Real Windows PC.
Running windows on a Mac is always a compromise. Whether in a Boot Camp partition or in a Virtual Machine.
In boot camp you can't easily Re-Partition and or Re-Size the drive it is installed on. You can't use both graphics cards as Apple has limited Windows to use the discrete graphics only, that is if your mac has 2 graphics cards (15" MBPs), which will shorten the battery run time in Windows.
The trackpad only has limited functions in Windows, less then is available on the Mac side and a real Windows PC.

What's the best way to get user testing of our app (we're based in the UK)

Hi all.
We've just developed our first app for Palm and would really like to get some feedback from Palm users (our app allows users to take photos and send them as real printed postcards. We'd be very happy to give users free postcards in exchange for feedback).
The problem we have is that Palm users are pretty sparse in the UK. We've found that user testing with non-Palm users becomes handset testing rather than app testing. We have to teach them how to use Palm ("Where's the back button?") and so the testing mainly focuses on the particularities of Palm rather than our app. Plus, we don't benefit from the user being able to compare to other Palm apps.
Any advice on the best way to get feedback from Palm users? Especially as they'll need to download the SDK and install our app using it in order to get it onto their phones.
If any of the users of this forum are interested in giving the app a go and sending us feedback, I'd love to send you the IPK and then chat. Just send me an email using [email protected]
Our app is available for Pixi+, Pre+ and Pre2.
Thanks,
Freddie.
Post relates to: Pixi Plus p121ueu (SFR)

Hello freddie:
Welcome to the Palm Forums. Thank You for the offer. I highly suggest offering it up
to our many enthusiasts on Twitter as a beta with the #webos hashtag or joining
the Precentral.net community and list it in a topic there, homebrew beta. You would
get better beta response if you Package your app and put it in an ipk to simplify
the install.
Hope that helps... Best of luck with your app!

What is the best way to switch between multiple image buffers? AND How to synchronize saves?

Hello,
I'm trying to flip-flop between two buffers and wondering the best possible solution for this. I'd like to acquire an image in one buffer, send that off to be processed, and then while that's being processed acquire a second image. Right now I have a "Create IMAQ vi" in a for loop and have it creating 10 image locations. I'm using a non-NI framegrabber (shame I know) which makes things a bit more difficult to replicate. I have two while loops. One while loop currently grabs images from the framegrabber and places in the 10 different locations. The other while loop currently holds a case structure that does the processing. I have created a local variable that holds all of the image locations and reads those to be processed. I don't know if this is actually making things faster or if it's better to just make one image location.
I have two images attached. One image is the Grab While loop. Since I have an array of locations, I have to use a for loop and index each one out to my display. I then have a shift register to carry the image location info over to the next iteration of the while loop.
The second attachment is the bulk of the main while loop. It shows what happens to the image while it's being fully processed in the left case structure. I know it does not look like much but one of the cases (which is called by Boolean Image FFT) is a subVI that does most of the processing. I believe that is what really slows it down because of how that program is written.
The right case structure shows my saving mechanism. I have two file paths. One to save the image and the other to save the processed image. I have a sequence to make sure they save at the same time once it gets to that point.
The problem though is the following:
In the grabwhileloop.png, you can see that I have a timing to see how fast the images are being acquired. This value is approximately 60 fps (which is the rate of the Basler camera). There is a similar set up in the main loop case structure. This processes very slowly and is approximately 1.04 fps. Which would mean that the image I turn into an array in the left case structure in the main while loop image is more than likely different than the image I'm trying to save off in the right case structure since the grab is occurring at the same time. I'd like to have the processed image to save alongside the image I am processing.
Sorry for the big bulk of text. This code has come a long way as it is. If you have any suggestions on making it faster or more efficient please feel free to chime in.
Thanks,
Rob

Thanks for the comment. I have looked into the producer/consumer architecture, but to be honest, I'm not quite sure how everything will work while doing that. I have seen the example codes, and I have thought about implementing (or at least attempting to) but I'm still unconvinced that it will run that much more efficiently. There is other setup outside of the images that had to be done outside of either while loop. Also, I don't know where I would put both loops.
Last time, I attempted to put the grab while loop inside of the state machine. Things got chopped because it took so long to go through the main while loop's "acquisition" state (which is really the processing state). I needed both to simultaneously run. The grab reset every time it went to the "grab" state which is not what I wanted. The only way I can thing to have combatted this was to combine the grab and acquisition in the same state. If that were to happen, I'd take out the for loop and grab one image at a time. However, that would still probably make things even slower than they already are.
In terms of the doing something before an image is assigned in for loop, I don't need that pixel sum value to refresh too quickly. As it is already, the main while loop is slow enough as it is, so I am more afraid that everything will run too slowly the more I do. I know where the bottleneck is in my code, but I can't really see a way to "even out the flow". Even if I moved to the other architecture, I feel it'd take the same amount of time that it does already.
From my debugging, the Image local variable in the main while loop seems to refresh as quickly as the grab while loop spits it out. Granted once the main while loop finally completes, main images have gone by. This is what has to be though because it just take up so much processing power to run through the main while loop state.
As a side note, does labview have an issue with acquiring images in real-time that you have heard of? I ask because when I run the code, there is a solid white line that I'm supposed to see in my display. Every time things either time out or something, the line moves which is not supposed to happen. The line also moves every time I place my mouse cursor in the display or if I spin the mouse wheel to scroll. If I don't do either of those things, it'll eventually move on its own.

What's the best way to collect internal table?

Hi,

I want to collect the field "qty3" based on the key fields: "key1 + key2 + key3".
What's the most efficient way to collect the internal table?
Thanks.

Hi Ren,
You can code something like this with COLLECT statement.
DATA: BEGIN OF ITAB OCCURS 0,
        KEY1 TYPE TABLE1-FIELD1,
        KEY2 TYPE TABLE1-FIELD2,
        KEY3 TYPE TABLE1-FIELD3,
        QTY1 TYPE TABLE2-QTY1,
        QTY2 TYPE TABLE2-QTY2,
        QTY3 TYPE TABLE2-QTY3.
DATA: END OF ITAB.
DATA: BEGIN OF ITAB2 OCCURS 0,
        KEY1 TYPE TABLE1-FIELD1,
        KEY2 TYPE TABLE1-FIELD2,
        KEY3 TYPE TABLE1-FIELD3,
        QTY3 TYPE TABLE2-QTY3.
DATA: END OF ITAB2.
SORT ITAB.
LOOP AT ITAB.
MOVE-CORRESPONDING ITAB TO ITAB2.
COLLECT ITAB2.
ENDLOOP.
LOOP AT ITAB2.
WRITE: /01 ITAB2-KEY1, ITAB2-KEY2, ITAB2-KEY3,
             ITAB3-QTY3.
ENDLOOP.
Hope this will help and give an idea.

What's the best way to use iTunes match with 4 iPhones and an ipad2

Currently have iPhone 4 (2), iPhone 3GS, iPhone 3G (used as touch-no sim), and iPad 2. We use one apple id to purchase with. We use a windows 7 pc and iTunes 10.5.....latest ver. My questions are kinda multi faceted, but I'm thinking iTunes match can help. Ok....
Is iTunes match cloud space the same as iCloud space?
I have ~15000 mp3's. I'd like to use iTunes match to "clean up" my library. So, once I get my matched tunes up there will all my devices see that library?
What about playlists? Do they just stay the same and locally reside on iDevices?
I don't have a Mac yet, well I don't have a new one. I currently have a iBook g4 1.0 ghz with 1.25mb ram and osx 10.5 on it. I would like to move all my music to a 1tb nas drive that I have.....iTunes does see it. Then do all my iTuning from that machine for the next couple of months until I save more money and by an iMac.
However, it seems as though this ITunes might be able to this better.......
I'm terribly confused...I have 10+ years in IT, albeit mostly all PC. That being said, I am ready to switch, I just feel like I'm so deep into a mess it seems impossible to do any of this cleanly.
Thank you,

I'll try to help a bit.
ITunes match space is different to icloud space. With iTunes match you get storage for 25,000 non iTunes purchased tracks and other than a limit for individual file size, there is no memory limit.
You can turn match on individuallyon each device (I have it turned off on my iPod but turned on on my iPad and iPhone). When you turn it on then you get access to all the tracks, and in my experience any playlists I create have transferred over very well. I understand that some people have had trouble with playlists though.
I'm not quite clear with exactly what you mean regarding cleaning up your library, but be careful about using Match for this. There is no guarantee that matched songs will be exactly the same version as your own copy, due to some mismatches, so you could find some problems there. Personall, I am cleaning up my library before matching, but I am rather particular about keeping my library the way I want it. If you aren't as fussed then match could be the answer.
Hope that helped.

What's the best way to correct my iTunes library's track and artists names?

I need to know how i can i correct the name of the files in my iTunes library.
For example, a lot of people have REM in their library which is not correct, it's R.E.M.
I am sure there's an application that will scan my library and correct the info.

While at first glance iTunes does an adequete job of naming music it does have its issues. It will not change the name of the actual file to match the music.
There are much better programmes out there to do this, I use mp3Tag (free). This will change your tag data and you can change your filename to match. It should be pointed out that this will not work with music downloaded from the iTunes store only the stuff you have ripped.
I have not tried it by converting iTunes Plus music to mp3 and then changing the tag data. Does anyone know if this works?

What is the best way to create videos for my website?

Hi,
I'm a public speaking coach in Sydeny Australia. I've started a blog and want to include videos to my newsletter subscribers. I do not want to use YouTube, because I want to only share these videos to people on my list.
What is the best way / program to create good videos for my customers? I think I might need to upload these videos to my server and only share the links...? Any suggestions welcome.
Thank you
Trevor Ambrose

Trevor:
This may be more information than you asked for, but here goes:
Get a Samsung S10 Video camera (under $400) and a Zoom H4n Professional audio recorder. Get Adobe Production Premium CS5. The camera shoots 1920 x 1080 square pixel in a better quality than a $6000 Panasonic P2 from 4 years ago. The downside, the audio from the Samsung is poor. That's why I recommend the Zoom H4n. On the Premiere timeline, you simply align the waveform of the video with the higher quality wave from the H4n. You can buy a medium sized fold up greenscreen and place any background behind your talent. CS5 has Ultra built in, so you can easily key out the green right on the Premiere timeline revealing a nice background of your choice.
I would design a web page based upon your current website's look and feel that will be a template for your videos. You export your finished video from the Premiere timeline as an f4v. I would recommend 16x9 widescreen and use the Flash preset of "Web Large Widescreen". You can also specify a "Fullscreen" button on the video's controller. The quality is so good that the video will look good even when your client watches it full screen. You import the video into Flash CS5 using the same document dimensions as your video size. You create a Flash template and "Publish" your Flash movie TO your template. Then all that is necessary is to upload all of the associated Web ready files to your server via FTP or Dreamweaver. This workflow streamlines the process and saves hours of fiddling around.
As far as the Web page goes that has your video, give the pages an HTML name like; vid0096hvc.html and use the Robots No Follow tag:
<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW">
This is the next best thing to having a client log-in and works in a setting where people aren't paying
to see the video, but you still don't want them plastered all over the internet.

What is the best way to delete MacKeeper?

I installed MacKeeper last year in an attempt to free up some hard drive space on my former hard drive. I now have a new SSD and have no need for MacKeeper. In addition, I see that this programme attracts a lot of negative press.
What is the best way to delete MacKeeper from my hard drive and Time machine?

Remove the "MacKeeper" crapware as follows. First, back up all data.
"MacKeeper" has only one useful feature: it deletes itself.
Note: These instructions apply to the version of the product that I downloaded and tested in early 2012. I can't be sure that they apply to other versions.
IMPORTANT: "MacKeeper" has what the developer calls an “encryption” feature. In my tests, I didn't try to verify what this feature really does. If you used it to “encrypt” any of your files, “decrypt” them before you uninstall, or (preferably) restore the files from backups made before they were “encrypted.” As the developer is not trustworthy, you should assume that the "decrypted" files are corrupt unless proven otherwise.
In the Finder, select Go ▹ Applications from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-A. The "MacKeeper" application is in the folder that opens. Quit it if it's running, then drag it to the Trash. You'll be prompted for your login password. Then a dialog will pop up asking why you want to uninstall it. You don't have to provide that information. Enter anything you like in the text box, then click the Uninstall MacKeeper button. All the functional components of the software will be deleted. Reboot.
Do not try to uninstall by dragging the MacKeeper icon in the Dock or the LaunchPad to the Trash.
Here are some general suggestions. If you want your computer to be usable, don't install crapware, such as “themes,” "haxies," “add-ons,” “toolbars,” “enhancers," “optimizers,” "tune-ups," “accelerators,” “extenders,” “cleaners,” “defragmenters,” “firewalls,” "barriers," “guardians,” “defenders,” “protectors,” most “plugins,” commercial "virus scanners,” "disk tools," or "utilities." With very few exceptions, this kind of material is useless, or worse than useless.
The more actively promoted the product, the more likely it is to be garbage. The most extreme example is the “MacKeeper” scam.
The only software you should install is that which directly enables you to do the things you use a computer for — such as creating, communicating, and playing — and does not modify the way other software works. Never install any third-party software unless you know how to uninstall it.
