What is the proper way to add glue?

I'm very new to Java and as such want to avoid things which will be deprecated. I wanted to add some glue and used:
jPanelBottom.add(Box.createHorizontalGlue());
When I look at F2, I see the following warning:
Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeansTM has been added to the java.beans package. Please see java.beans.XMLEncoder.
I looked at the XMLEncoder and it is for writing output. My guess is that createHorizontalGlue() is still the best way to add glue, and that I can use the Box class to do so? Is there a more accepted method?
Is there a simple example of when I get into trouble where the above warning message should be heeded? If there is something to be avoided, I want to know what exactly it is so that I can indeed avoid it.
Thanks,
Ilan

Crucial. 16GB 2X8 204P SODIMM PC3-12800 MAC to be specific.
The OEM RAM is in slots 2 + 4 from the top, at least in mine. BANK 0/DIMM0 and BANK 1/DIMM0.
A little background: I installed new RAM in the slots last week when my new iMac arrived, in the open slots, 1 + 3 from the top. I then started up for the first time and installed my account from Time Machine. So far, so good. About 2 hours into my first day usage I started getting random crashes. By day 2 I'd had maybe 15 crashes and a dozen kernel panics. I removed the RAM and re-seated it. Same problem. I created a new user account, thinking maybe I had some corrupt data. Ran fine for a couple of hours then BOOM same problem, again. Removed the new RAM and presto, no more crashes, going on 4 days now. I returned the RAM to the vender, requesting a replacement in the hopes that I just had a bad stick (even though I ran TechTool 7 and found no problems... which struck me as weird).
So now I'm a little bit concerned about using the best, most Apple-approved method for installing the replacement RAM when it arrives. I'm not exactly a newbie. I've read things in the past about it being important to install RAM in a specific order, but it's been a while since I've had a new Mac, and things change. I want to be careful, but it sounds like it doesn't matter a whole lot. My fingers are crossed, not that I'm superstitious.

What is the proper way to add 16GB ram to the existing 8GB in my 27" Retina iMac?

I've searched the web for the best answer to this question: What's the best way to add 16GB ram to the existing 8GB in my late 2014 Retina iMac (ending up with a total of 24GB ram)?
I'm seeing conflicting and ultimately confusing advice. Most people are saying to just pop in the new 16GB (2X8GB) into the 2 open slots and you're done. Others are saying no, remove the 2 4GB sticks, replace those now empty slots with the 2 new 8GB sticks, and put the 4GB sticks in the remaining 2 slots, which viewed from the bottom would be 8,4,8,4.
A third option (to make things even more confusing) seems to be keeping the 2X4GB and 2X8GB sticks together, side by side, so that viewed from the bottom you'll see 8,8,4,4 or 4,4,8,8.
I have no idea which configuration is best: They all seem to "work" according to those advocating their method. I want to know what Apple recommends, if they indeed have a preferred method.

What is the Proper Way to place a Background Image inside a Div?

I have been searching Google and the Adobe forums for awhile now, and while there are very valid solutions to similar problems I found that none of them fixed the problem that I am facing. I blame myself and getting lost in this sloppy coding of mine, so part of my plan was to start my style sheet over from scratch.
My question, what is the proper way to add a background image into a div? I currently have the top div following the "header" css style, here is what I have typed into that sections:
<style type="text/css">
@import url("../twoColLiqLtHdr.css");
.header {
    width: 1000px;
    height: 300px;
    background-image: url(Assets/HeaderTemplate.png);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-position: center;
The problem here is that the background image isn't even appearing. I would greatly appreciate any help, could anyone inform me on the proper way to doing this so that I can implement images in divs in the future without turning my coding in a down right mess?
Thank you in advance.

What is the proper way to record line numbers in Master/Detail records?

Guys and Gals,
Been thinking about this for awhile, but thought it best to ask the people who really know what they are doing.
What is the proper way to record & show line numbers in a Master / Detail record set?
For example, take Master/Detail relationship Orders and OrderItems. Orders has a column Document_Number and OrderItems has Document_Number, Line_Number. Line_Number should contain the row number 1,2,3,4 ... etc. for each row in a document.
Should I ...
<ol><li>Add a sequence and a trigger in the database? The FusionOrderDemo does this, but then the sequence never "resets" and I've got row numbers that keep incrementing. So one document has rows 4,5,6 and the next document has 7,8,9 when they should both have 1,2,3.</li>
<li>Programmatically take care of the row numbers? This seems like I'm asking for trouble. Anytime an insert or delete operation gets done, I'll have to iterate through rows and re-assign row numbers.</li>
<li>Is there a way to assign row numbers in a table iterator (or data collection?) to an entity?</li></ol>
Any suggestions would be appreciated. It's looking like #2 is my only option, but if anyone knows different I'd love the input.
Will

Thank you both guys.
As John said, I believe I'm looking for a gap-free sequence per master record.
The line number of the OrderItems table is the second half of the primary key. The first half of the primary key (DocumentNumber) is the foreign key to the Orders table.
Think of it like line items on an order or invoice. For example, if you were talking to someone on the phone concerning an invoice, you might say, "The pricing for line item #3 is incorrect." In this case, it's good to have a common reference. Or imagine a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet with no row numbers displayed! You'd never get anywhere if you had to explain something over the phone.
If this is tricky to perform, I take it using a sequence and trigger such as the Fusion Order Demo is the best way to approach the challenge for simplicity's sake?

What is the proper way to create a monotone image with real looking contrast?

Once I apply a color to my previously created black and white image everything looks washed out.
I have an artwork with 3D representation of the letterforms, casting shadows on the textured surface. Shadows are deep black. I need this artwork to be colored in gold. My client forwarded me the specs for the metallic gold which he got from the PANTONE. They are:Gold (871); Adobe 1998 RGB: 126-113-76
HSB*: 44 degrees-40%-50%
What is the proper way of applying those values to the desired image.
My idea was to make the image black and white and than create a monotone image with the above specs. In this case the image gets washed out as the darkest black in the shadows becomes this Pantone gold. Is there any other way?

A duotone will work, however you are going to want to work closely with your printer . Most printers will want the second color in CMYK (Possibly C60 M40 Y0 K100 instead of RGB values or specify a Pantone Rich Black (I personally like 6C)but it will cost you more for the wash up of both heads of the printer...
Go to Image>Mode>Duotone (image must be greyscale first for this to work) then add the desired colors to your ink scales.

What is the proper way to change rowHeight? (possibly animate?)

What is the proper way to change rowHeight for UITableView? I set tableView.rowHeight and do a [tableView reloadData]. Is this necessary? Also, is it possible to animate the height change? It is not a standard transition.

Not a perfect solution for your animation question - but....
in the function where you want to change the height
WARNING PSUDO CODE
//indexPath is the path for theCell you want to edit
thePlaceThatYouStoreYourHeights[x] = aNewHeight;
[tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
[tableView insertRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationTop];
and inside of - (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath (NSIndexPath *)indexPath
return thePlaceThatYouStoreYourHeights[indexPath.row];
Basic flow
1. Store new desired height somewhere
2. Remove the cell deleteRowsAtIndexPaths
3. UITableView paints the animation for the "remove" transition **see note
4. Re-add the cell insertRowsAtIndexPaths (which subsequently kicks of a call to heightForRowAtIndexPath before animating)
5. UITableView paints the animation for the "add" transition
You do NOT need to call reloadData to get this to work.
**note: an enum such as UITableViewRowAnimationNone does not exist (it should but it doesnt seem to). the docs for InsertRowsAtIndexPaths say "A constant that either specifies the kind of animation to perform when inserting the cell or requests no animation." however there are only 5 items in the UITableViewRowAnimation enum and UITableViewRowAnimationFade resolves to 0 - so passing NO will actually get you fade. Nor will it take nil.
Hope this helps shed some light.

How can I use 2 Apple IDs in Itunes? I have 2 IOS Devices. They each have there own AppleID. What is the proper way to sync both of them to Itunes?

How can I use 2 Apple IDs in Itunes? I have 2 IOS Devices. They each have there own AppleID. What is the proper way to sync both of them to Itunes? I wanted my teenager's AppleID to be different from mine so that she couldn't charge stuff to my AppleID, therefore I created me another one. Now when I go to Sync either device, it tells me that this IOS device can only be synced with one AppleID. Then I get a message to erase it, not going to do that, lol. If I logout as one ID and login as the other, will it still retain all synced information on the PC from the first IOS device? If I can just log in out of the AppleID, then I have no problem doing that as long as the synced apps, music, etc stays there for both. I am not trying to copy from one to the other, just want to make sure I have a backup for the UhOh times. If logging in and out on the same PC of multiple AppleIDs is acceptible then I need to be able to authorize the PC for both devices. Thanks for the help. I am new to the iOS world.

"Method Three
Create a separate iTunes library for each device. Note:It is important that you make a new iTunes Library file. Do not justmake a copy of your existing iTunes Library file. If iTunes is open,quit it.
This one may work. I searched and searched on the website for something like this, I guess I just didn't search correctly, lol. I will give this a try later. My daughter is not be back for a few weekends, therefore I will have to try the Method 3 when she comes back for the weekend again. "
I forgot to mention that she has a PC at her house that she also syncs to. Would this cause a problem. I am already getting that pop up saying that the iPod is synced to another library (even though she is signed in with her Apple ID to iTunes) and gives the pop up to Cancel, Erase & Sync, or Transfer Purchases. My question arose because she clicked on "Erase & Sync" by mistake when she plugged the iPod to her PC the first time. When the iPod was purchased and setup, it was synced to my PC first. When she went home, she hooked it up to her PC and then she erased it by accident. I was able to restore all the missing stuff yesterday using my PC. However, even after doing that it still told me the next time I hooked it up last night that the iPod was currently synced with a different library. Hopefully, you can help me understand all this. She wants to sync her iPod and also backup her iPod at both places. Both PCs have been authorised. Thanks

What is the proper way to close all open sessions of a NI PXI-4110 for a given Device alias?

I've found that, when programming the NI PXI-4110 that, if a the VI "niDCPower Initialize With Channels VI" (NI-DCPower pallette) is called with a device
alias that all ready has one or more sessions open (due to an abort or other programming error) a device reference results from the reference out that has a (*) where "*" is post-fixed to the device reference where and is an integer starting that increments with each initialize call. In my clean up, I would like to close all open sessions. For example, let's said the device alias is "NIPower_1" in NI Max, and there are 5 open sessions; NIPower_1, NIPower_1 (1), NIPower_1 (2), NIPower_1 (3), and NIPower_1 (4). A simple initialize or reset (using niDCPower Initialize With Channels VI, or, niDCPower Initialize With Channels VI, etc.) What is the proper way to close all open sessions?
Thanks in advance. Been struggleing with this for days!

When you Initialize a session to a device that already has a session open, NI-DCPower closes the previous session and returns a new one. You can verify this very easily: try to use the first session after the second session was opened.
Unfortunately, there is a small leak and that is what you encountered: the previous session remains registered with LabVIEW, since we unregister inside the Close VI and this was never called. So the name of the session still shows in the control like you noted: NIPower_1, NIPower_1 (1), NIPower_1 (2), NIPower_1 (3), and NIPower_1 (4), etc.
There may be a way to iterate over the registered sessions, but I couldn't find it. However, you can unregister them by calling "IVI Delete Session". Look for it inside "niDCPower Close.vi". If you don't have the list of open sessions, but you have the device name, then you can just append (1), (2) and so forth and call "IVI Delete Session" in a loop. There's no problem calling it on sessions that were never added.
However - I consider all this a hack. What you should do is write code that does not leak sessions. Anything you open, you should close. If you find yourself in a situation where there are a lot of leaked sessions during development, relaunching LabVIEW will clear it out. If relaunching LabVIEW is too much of an annoyance, then write a VI that does what I described above and run it when needed. You can even make it "smarter" by getting the names of all the NI-DCPower devices in your system using the System Configuration or niModInst APIs.
Hope this helps.

What is the correct way to add styling to drag-and-drop created calendars?

I have a working instance of a rich client calendar. I generated the view with the required fields (start, stop, provider, ...), put it into the App Module, and dragged it onto a JSF page to create a calendar.
Next I created an activityScope object in a class called CalendarBean (no inheritance)
Class CalendarBean()
private HashMap<Set<String>, InstanceStyles> activityColorMap;
+..+
+public CalendarBean() {+
super();
activityColorMap = new HashMap<Set<String>, InstanceStyles>();
HashSet setEd = new HashSet<String>();
HashSet setLen = new HashSet<String>();
setEd.add("Work");
setLen.add("Home");
activityColorMap.put(setEd, CalendarActivityRamp.getActivityRamp(CalendarActivityRamp.RampKey.ORANGE));
activityColorMap.put(setLen, CalendarActivityRamp.getActivityRamp(CalendarActivityRamp.RampKey.RED));
+}+
+}+
Next, I linked this up as a backing bean and associated the ActivityStyles of CalendarBean to it:
+#{backingBeanScope.calendarBean.activityColorMap}+
I populated some records in the database with properties "Work" and "Ed', but they show default blue.
As I understand it, I need to do something with the getTags() method of the underlying CalendarActivity class, but I'm not quite sure how to do that.
Took a stab at creating a class, CalendarActivityBean, that extended CalendarActivity, and pointed all the CalendarActivity references I had to the new class, but it didn't seem to fire (in debug), and I got into trouble, when inserting records, with
public void calendarActivityListener(CalendarActivityEvent calendarActivityEvent) {
currActivity = (CalendarActivityBean) calendarActivityEvent.getCalendarActivity();
being an illegal cast
What is the correct way to add provider-based styling to drag-and-drop create calendars?
Ed Schechter

A colleague of mine was kind enough to solve this:
The calendar has ActivityStyles property = #{calendarBean.activityStyles}
CalendarBean looks something like this:
package com.hub.appointmentscheduler.ui.schedule;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Set;
import oracle.adf.view.rich.util.CalendarActivityRamp;
import oracle.adf.view.rich.util.InstanceStyles;
+public class CalendarBean {+
private HashMap activityStyles;
private String dummy;
+public CalendarBean() {+
+// Define colors+
activityStyles = new HashMap<Set<String>, InstanceStyles>();
HashSet setPending = new HashSet<String>();
HashSet setArrived = new HashSet<String>();
HashSet setApproved = new HashSet<String>();
HashSet setCompleted = new HashSet<String>();
setApproved.add("APPROVED");
setPending.add("PENDING");
setArrived.add("ARRIVED");
setCompleted.add("COMPLETED");
activityStyles.put(setApproved, CalendarActivityRamp.getActivityRamp(CalendarActivityRamp.RampKey.GREEN));
activityStyles.put(setPending, CalendarActivityRamp.getActivityRamp(CalendarActivityRamp.RampKey.ORANGE));
activityStyles.put(setArrived, CalendarActivityRamp.getActivityRamp(CalendarActivityRamp.RampKey.PLUM));
activityStyles.put(setCompleted, CalendarActivityRamp.getActivityRamp(CalendarActivityRamp.RampKey.LAVENDAR));
+}+
+public void setactivityStyles(HashMap activityStyles) {+
this.activityStyles = activityStyles;
+}+
+public HashMap getactivityStyles() {+
return activityStyles;
+}+
+}+
Now, go into the Bindings tab on the calendar page, double click the calendar binding, and specify the column you've defined as the calendar's Provider in the Tags dropdown.
Should show colors.

What's the easiest way to add storage to a mac mini. (1TB hard drive but only 32G of real storage). External device, internal or partitioning?

What's the easiest way to add storage to a mac mini. (1TB hard drive but only 32G of real storage). External device, internal or is there some way to partition? I tried doing so but received a message that there wasn't enough free space to partition. Seems like a 1TB drive should have more storage than my Ipad

Its worth confirming what free space you have on your drive:
go to: Apple Menu > About this Mac > More Info > Storage
The bar chart shows how much free space there is on the drive:
Please realise that partitioning does not create extra space so this wont help you.
If your free space is less than 20 % you should get extra storage with an external USB or Firewire drive, any make or model will work.

What's the right way to add a swipe handler to a DataGrid?

H All:
What’s the right way to add a swipe handler to a DataGrid?
(Target = Android, AIR using Flash IDE)
Adding a handler to the DataGrid works; but (as expected) it only works on the datagrid itself. Like if you swipe on the background before rows are fully added. Adding columns over the datagrid, prevents the datagrids’ swipe handler from firing.
Trying to add a swipe hander to the columns themselves, results in the below error.
// Below code fails with
// 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addEventListener through a reference with static type
//   fl.controls.dataGridClasses:DataGridColumn. So ... DataGridColumn doesn’t support addEventListener...
There must be a better way(?).
Thanks
            import fl.controls.DataGrid;
            import fl.controls.dataGridClasses.DataGridColumn;
           // Works, but only on the grid itself; as when the rows do not fill the space tor the datagrid.
            myDataGrid.addEventListener (TransformGestureEvent.GESTURE_SWIPE, swipeGridHandler);
            var c1:DataGridColumn = new DataGridColumn("Notes");
            c1.width = 90;
            c1.cellRenderer = CenterAlignCell;

What is the best way to add text to an image

I used the draw ap div to add text to an image. will that cause any problems? If so, what is the best way to add text to an image? Thanks!

APDivs will kill your design unless you fully understand the css behind the scenes and plan accordingly. They really are completely unnecessary in the vast majority of situations.
An easy way to add "web text over an image" would be to use the background-image attribute in css for a standard <div> tag, then just add the text within that same <div>.
Something like this in the css (if you are using a 300x300 pixel image)...
#yourdiv {
     background-image:url(yourpic.jpg);
     width:300px;
     height:300px;
And then this in the html...
<div id="yourdiv">Your text here</div>
You would then position the <div> using css margins, floats and padding. Using position:absolute (APDivs) is typically something that will blow your design to pieces if the viewer changes their browser settings.

What is the best way to add hard disk space to macbook pro?

I'm running out of disk space on my macbook pro. What is the best way to add disk space?

another way of doing it is to replace your hard drive with a larger one.
if you're technically capable, it takes 10 minutes for the swap and an hour minimum to clone your hard drive or do a data transfer. all depends on how much data there is to trandfer or to clone.
good luck.
