Which model gives better performence Invoker/Definer?

Hi all
in terms of performance in a large database 1000 tables 30GB DB size and in a centralized schema which model is better either Invoker or Definer / any method to get the performance percentage?
thanks

Invoker versus definer is a matter of access privileges. It has absolutely nothing to do with performance. It is completely orthogonal.
a centralized schema If by this you mean you have only one account which owns the objects used by everybody else, the question you must ask is: do you want your packages to run as the application owner or as Joe Soap? This is a security question; the access paths are the same, the data is the same. Only the privileges are different.
Cheers, APC
P.S. The default position is Definer and that seems to me to be the right way to go in the scenario you have described.

  • Which new Imac 27inch model is better?

    I was looking to upgrade from a MacBook Pro to the new Imac 27inch. I was looking online and saw that the lower 27inch 2.9 ghz model runs the same or a little better than the 27inch 3.2ghz model. Does anyone know if this is true and does anyone have some suggestion on which model to get?

    Both are Intel i5 CPUs so, the 3.2Ghz CPU should be faster.
    If the 2.9Ghz i5 CPU model was tested with the Fusion drive, it may have been faster, but that would mean that the 3.2Ghz CPU model would be even faster with the Fusion Drive, too!
    Purchase the best and fastest iMac you can afford.
    Plus, with the 3.2 Ghz CPU model you get the faster 1GB VRAM GPU.

    Regards,
    ChandaThe two statements aren't equivalent. If you know that your where condition is restricting to a single row then there is no point in doing a count as that will introduce an additional aggregate function that isn't required for a single row. If you are dealing with multiple rows from the where condition then the second query will return multiple rows whereas the first query returns 1 row, so they don't do the same thing anyway.

  • Which model should I buy?

    Hi,
    as a newcomer to this world,I have a "problem", which model I should take.
    I am not sure in selecting with or without 3G. I am almost sure that it will be a 32GB version, just to be sure it is in the middle. Or is it too much thos 32GB?.
    My idea with the Ipad2 is:
    - reading my emails
    - surging the web (reading newspapers, discussiongroups,...)
    - Maybe playing some kind of games like RPG,racegames,... Althought I mostly play using the NDS of my kids
    - Maybe watching a movie in bed
    - Reading Ebooks and PDF´s.
    I have a Wifi network at home. When I am on holiday I don´t have internet, althought I never had 3G internet before (as it is very pricy in Spain), I can buy the 3G service for a month I guess. Althought living one month without Internet is acceptable
    The 3G comes with a GPS system, but do you really use that in a car? I have a PDA with GPS, so I normally can use that.
    One million question: Would it be interesting in spending an extra 100€ for having the 3G and the GPS? Or is the 3G only really inresting for business people and normally as a normal user you just use the Ipad at home using your Wifi?
    Please give me your opinion.
    Thx,
    David

    Yep, I would wait a little while longer until you get the iPad befre getting a case - see how you like the iPad and what sort of case you want e.g. Do you want to cover the back or not, do you like the feel of the iPad in your hand in which case you might want a sleeve rather than a case etc. I don't think it will take the manufacturers long to get lots of really cool iPad 2 cases on the shelves now they have experience with cases for iPads, but waiting a few weeks will give you more to choose from.
    I personally don't use protection plastic, I'm careful when I use the iPad and I've never damaged or even scratched my original iPad, and I'd rather out the money towards buying cool apps! If you are going to handle your iPad roughly, take it out and about a lot or have children who will be using the iPad then you might want to consider plastic protection, but really the glass is pretty hardwearing.
    The only other reason I can see for using a stylus is if you want to use the iPad as an artist tool to do sketching and painting on the iPad - people with a bit of artistic talent (not me!!) can produce amazing art on the iPad and a stylus really helps for that.
    Bet you can't wait for the iPad - enjoy it when you get it!

  • Which Model Type to choose BPMN or EPC

    Hi
    I am trying to create Oracle's Standard Business Flows in ERP Application into BPA.
    Like Procure to Pay etc.,
    For this which Model Type is better (BPMN or EPC)?
    What are the things to be considered while choosing the Model type?
    Any direction is helpful...

    Ravi

    Hi Ravi,
    The threads below should give you some hints:
    * EPC or BPMN: EPC or BPMN
    * BPMN in BPA 10.1.3.3: Re: BPMN  in BPA 10.1.3.3
    * EPC or BPMN at business process level: EPC or BPMN at business process level
    Basically there is a comment in one of the threads, which does conclude the question regarding EPC or BPMN in a nice way:

  • Which models of Mac will I need?

    I normally run chrome with 10 or more tabs + iTunes in the background playing music(just ALAC from the library not streaming) + photoshop in the background idling(just open and put it there) while sometimes edit image (minor edit like resize the image and canvas size). I will also stop the music in iTunes then open a movie/video that's 1920x1080 Hi10p/HEVC BD FLAC.
    PS: I am not much of a gamer. While I may bootcamp just to play a few Japanese Visual Novel games that's available only in PC. Other than that, I seldom/almost no play games.
    So which models of Macs do you guys think will suit my usage? Or are there any PCs out there that suit my needs too?

    Appears the site Hosts have moved your thread into the iMac (Intel) discussions area
    so as to keep it in-line with a more recent hardware and software technology. Another
    option, sort of hinted at by where this discussion is now located, is the iMac series...
    All of these (as new recent models) will run the most current OS X system, 10.10.
    If you were interested in one kind of model build version over another, then there
    are a few other choices. Some like the portability of the MacBook Pro or Air models.
    Others may like the idea you could use most displays, keyboard & mouse, etc when
    considering the Mac Mini, as it ships with none. An iMac ships with the built-in display,
    a keyboard, and mouse. When ordering online from the Apple Store, you could choose
    to also include a different mouse model, keyboard version, or touchpad; in addition to
    the choice of processor and other factors, across two iMac 21.5 + 27-inch models...
    (Then, there's the top-end model that would certainly not be within my budget: iMac 5K.)
    There occasionally are recent models that are slightly discounted, fully guaranteed as
    new, and qualify for the optional AppleCare extended plan, in Apple's refurbished site.
    You have no options in the build, each one that may be listed is just that. Some have
    more or less RAM, a variety of other specification, and may or may not ship with the
    same software of the specific build-run they had when each was available in retail...
    •Apple Store (US) online refurbished & clearance site:
    http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/specialdeals
    So it may be possible to get a last-years model that could have Mavericks 10.9 in it.
    That model would be able to get Yosemite from the Mac App Store online, an upgrade.
    It is possible to have an older system (in a partition or external separate drive) and a
    newer one, and run the computer alternately from one or the other. Or revert to older.
    A fair plan would be to budget for an externally enclosed hard disk drive with faster
    7200-RPM drive inside, and USB3.0 porting; this could be used to backup and also
    be able to support a bootable copy or clone of your system. This would be in addition
    to an external drive or device that would be used with Time Machine for backups...
    These should be self-powered so they do not rely on the computer port for power,
    and be of suitable size capacity for some serious storage; or be good for partitions
    so more than one duty can be served by the device. A 2 or 3 TB may be OK.
    The site macsales.com (aka: OWC) has some good examples of this kind of gear.
    For wireless and wired backups one could opt for an Apple Time Capsule, that is an
    AirPort Extreme base station with internal storage; this works well for Time Machine.
    The other backup drive device is an externally enclosed hard disk drive with fast HDD.
    This is what can be used if set up, to truly have a copy of your computer via clone or
    bootable clone. It could run the computer should the main internal drive fail, too.
    Since OS X likes plenty of resources made available for its use, to make an affordable
    investment in the device at a level you can justify and plan on using for a few years, is
    about the best one can do. A top-end machine, not within most student budgets, is a
    nice idea but not necessarily the affordable device to begin with. However to a good
    extent, to get a reasonably good configuration of fast hard drive (spin rate, if not SSD)
    and memory RAM, and processor with good spec graphics, can look more costly than
    a generic PC that was not designed for use with OS X.
    http://store.apple.com/us/buy-mac/mac-mini?product=MGEN2LL/A&step=config
    The mid-level Mini has a few options. More RAM is only available as CTO or custom
    order, or may be found in a retail Apple Store if they chose to stock them. 16GB is
    quite a bit. An option for a 7200-RPM HDD is not listed in the online config page in
    the Store, but that would be a fair one. The Fusion drive is some kind of hybrid that
    would be fairly quick, though it uses a partial SSD and HDD together. A 1-TB hybrid
    may be more like a 750GB HDD with a 250GB SSD working together, and seen in
    the system as one unit. Some user errors or processes in utility can change this so
    these Fusion units may appear broken or as two parts. It is one unit. Some of these
    Mini models could use more than one HDD or one SSD and one HDD.
    They had a server model which shipped with two 1-TB HDD (5400-RPM) and initially
    only 4GB RAM, user upgradable to 16GB. Some users found these were slower than
    expected and the Late 2012 Mini quad-core server cost nearly $1,000. Upgrades to
    such a unit (no longer sold regularly at Apple) invite the faster spin rate HDDs, and
    the RAM upgrade. A company in NY by name of B&H photovideo shows one of these
    in their computer sales page, for about $849. and the inventory is new, not refurb.
    However the graphics shares standard system RAM, and is slower than IRIS graphics
    (which also appears to share standard system RAM with graphics.)
    I have not looked closely at the newest Mini in the $699 price-point, but the Iris Graphics
    may be a good move, if the computer also has at least 8GB RAM, and a 7200-RPM HDD.
    OR an SSD. The solid-state product is rather costly, & third-party versions are not going
    to be covered by the AppleCare and unless an Apple authorized service provider does an
    upgrade and does not void the warranty, that is a loss of value to upgrade that way. You
    could pay plenty extra for a small capacity SSD, to get some speed, but they fill quickly.
    An external that could run at 7200-RPM via USB3.0 or Thunderbolt, could support an OS X
    system running from that external location. That is an option, so the original HDD need not
    be replaced straight-away. The stock 500GB HDD is usually a 5400-RPM model and that
    would be the bottleneck or choke-point of the hardware. Even with a fair amount of RAM.
    So the specifications on these have to be seriously considered and more information obtained.
    Another source of comparison specifications, is a download database from http://mactracker.ca
    in addition to the extensive site from http://everymac.com. If you were to consider older hardware
    to have a lower cost option, the only advantage would be the cost and loss factor. Not as much
    out there, and less loss if it turned up missing or damaged by accident. Oh if you have renter
    or household insurance, see about accidental and water damage insurance as part of general
    policy. This in addition to theft and personal articles coverage, that includes theft. These items
    are not part of the AppleCare extended protection. All the numbers & specs change when one
    considers a comparison between a portable and a desktop computer.
    Sorry for all this writing, I had a few other web pages open and did some reading, but did not
    see as that helps; you'd have to be looking ahead and hope for the best. Also plan otherwise.
    To have a good backup method and a a duplicate method, so your works-in-progress aren't
    lost if or when something should happen, is worth the cost for reputable quality & fair price.
    Hopefully someone can give you better advice in the questions concerning configuration of product
    and the kinds of options you may need to plan for at some point. If I were going to return to school
    and wanted to keep a low budget while still using a Mac, I'd consider some pre-owned models at
    low enough price (with viable known-good source) for something I could replace the HDD or add
    RAM, and know it is essentially a disposable item. If you are taking science, math or design courses
    the kind of computer would vary. Same thing if you were to expect image or video graphic editing &
    building layers of changes that eat up resources. And I'd want to have a spare computer. If portable
    I'd try & take the ugly used one out and let it be seen while any nice costly one would be in hiding.
    Hopefully you can check into the options, and not just with a retail Apple Store. If available, ask
    some of the same questions and compare answers from independent authorized Apple retail
    shops whose business is also repair & service. Some of the older personnel have experience of
    a level not found in the regular Apple Store, if they are real Apple Specialists.
    Sorry for the long post, and I can't say this answers all that much!

  • What ipad model is better for downloading books?

    Hello, i want to buy an Ipad, but not 100% sure what ipad model is better for downloading books. i travel a lot and often find myself in the places where wi-fi is not reliable. Any tips are most welcome!

    iPad Mini. Both iPads are fine for books, but the Mini is even more portable, and the page size is ideal of reading books. I've had both; the Mini is better, for me. If you have the chance, visit your local Apple Store and try out the units on display. Then, you can determine which is right for you.
    If you read lots of emagazines, give the iPad Air a chance. The Air has a larger screen, and that means things will be less cramped. Apps like Flipboard perform well on both devices, but the Air is roomier and easier to navigate.

  • Which model to buy...

    I need some help deciding which model to buy. I currently own an:
    imac g4 800 MHz
    with a 15 inch flat panel
    512MB SDRAM
    60G Hard drive
    2x Superdrive that only writes to DVD-R
    There is no question in my mind that an upgrade would make me happy. I just need to decide on what to upgrade to.
    I may have narrowed it down to any of the imac g5 models.
    First, i'd like to know if i would experience a significant difference editing in final cut pro (i do freelance video editing) with a new imac g5 as compared to editing in my current imac g4 (particularly in exporting and compressing). Ofcourse, i'm certain that it would be faster. But i may be expecting too much of a difference. Apple even goes so far as saying "forget you ever waited for your computer to do what you said" on the website. The optimist in me wants to expect something mind blowingly fast. Can anyone shed some light on this for me.
    Now, to my specific choices (i've narrowed it down to 2, based on my budget which i've stretched to its limit):
    (1) imac 17"/2GHz/512/400G
    or
    (2) imac 20"/2GHz/512/250G
    Option 2 is just about $20 more expensive than option 1. So i'm leaning towards option 2 because I do alot of graphic arts, web design and video editing work and a big canvas to work on really makes a big difference for me. But i'm also thinking that the 150G extra hard disk space could be very useful.
    So, it's a question of bigger display or bigger hard drive for me.
    I'm still leaning towards option 2 because I can eventually buy an external HD in the future if ever i'll need it and have enough money (is this a good idea? i've seen a few "problems with external HD" posts in the forum).
    So in summation:
    In purchasing my new mac...
    (1) Will I experience a mind blowing difference editing videos in final cut pro compared to the current mac that i currently have?
    (2) bigger display or bigger hard drive?
    And if you think I should choose from a different set of options, please feel free to suggest. I will be more confused, but I always believe in putting much thought in purchases like these. If you've read this far, thank you and my apologies.

    Well I am going to throw a wrench in the works...
    I not going to give a complete History here, but I have edited on a 800MHz iMac G4, an iMac 1.6 G5, and a couple of PowerMac G5's. I have also used Photoshop on all 3. For my money, I would get a Dual. Maybe wait for a refurbished on the Apple site or check eBay. IMHO, a fast dual G4 will outperform a slow single G5. Of course a Dual G5 would be the best. Is there a mind-boggling speed difference between the single G5 and the double? There will be in rendering. This is one process that REALLY uses both processors. Besides that, I think you would more likely see a mind-boggling performance increase in the dual. I can Compress my video and still work in Photoshop and hardly know it on a Dual G5. I could not do that on my iMac G5. You would know when processor intensive tasks were being performed. Finally, you break out of the all-in-constraint. Maybe you don't get the biggest screen now, but you can add one later (& CRTs are better for color & cheaper!), you can add a hard drive (highly recommended), more RAM, a PCI firewire card (which bypasses 99% of all the problems you read about) and so on. The next time you need to upgrade computers, the only thing you will need to upgrade is the computer. And a refurbished G5 isn't anymore than a new iMac. I should also add that the more RAM in any machine the better, but it won't make any difference in terms of rendering. Rendering is processor intensive. Period.

  • How Do I determine which model ipad I need?

    I initially thought buying a baic 16GB Ipad with the 9.7" screen would be simple and inexpensive. But, the more I have looked, the more confused I am. I am so technically challenged that I do not understand the "specs", let alone how to use them. I have a basic nebook that I only use for emails, chatting, shopping and research. And that is because I do not know how to use all the features available. And I love my Kindle 3G Wi-Fi e-reader but it is not color and has the external  typing key pad, which has been ideal for me .  I do not even know how to text on my cellphone so I had the service removed since I did not use it. And I only use the Kindle for reading but was glad got the 3G Model but their is no additional monthly usage fee.
    But, now that I have been looking at the Apple ipads, I do not know if their  3/4G capabiliy service is worth the extra cost, as well as the high monthly serive fees? I am hoping someone can better explain why it cost so much more and just what the benefits will mean to me? Also, there any many benefits and added features but I do not believe I will ever learn t use many of them. And could someone please explain the advantage of "Bluetooth" and just what it means? And what other items or features will cost extra per month to use? Also, are none of the printer compatable? Is there no accessory to allow you to use a wireless printers? This was one of the most disappointing thing I have learned about the tablets. Aso, how is the quality of sound system?  Mine on the netbook is very poor and even with the volume on high, it is difficult to get good clear speach. So, I never watch moveis on my computer. And I am afraid it may be the same problem with the iPads? But, maybe with an external speaker or earbuds, it could enhance the sound? If so, at least I could listen to music.
    In the beginning I was not concenred which model but now after reading more about the latest Apple, I feel the new easy to read screen is something I need. So, I hope someone can help me select the right model without my buying much more than I will ever need or use. I look foward any assistance you great tech savvy users can provide. I believe it always helps to be an informed buyer. So, trying to do my homework to prevent buyers remorse.
    If it is permissable, you may email me with your information and suggestions on just what features I need to look for.

    Varjak paw:
    I don't think you can purchase the 3/4+ wireless service unless you pay the extra for one that has the capabilities. So, if we are not certain we will need it, it is a tough decision. It it has the capablities, you are not required to purchase a monthly contract. You can just use as needed.
    I do not know why this has become such a major decision for me but the more I hear, the more confused I am. The problem is it would be nice to have the special wireles service available if needed but I think it may be more beneficial to me to pay the extra 100.00 and get the 32 GB instead of the 16? But, my granddaughter says I will not need that much.
    My initial plan was simply to purchse the 16GB wif-fi and keep it simple. But, after learning the advantages of the Newst model and the improved screen, I thought I should get it since I have vision problems. Another problem is these things are outdated before we can decide which one to get. And some have suggested it will be more diffucult to get parts and have them repaired with an older model. Howeverm from what I have seen with these new electronic items, they are dispoable. Usually, if something does go wrong, it cost more to repair than to replace them.
    I am just experienceing this with my Kindle 3G/Wi-Fi. It is only a couple of months out of warranty but it is now freezing up. Also, it is loosing my place, and skipping pages and even paragraphs. It was working perfectly until about a week ago and of course, no one can help. You have to return it for them to check it and let you know what the problem could be and If it can be repaired. This is very disapointing to me since I was just planning to buy the Ipad. And now, I may have to replace the Kindle, which I wanted to keep for just reading. I have so many books on it and they are all in order and organized. So, this has put damper on what to do about the Ipad. If I were sure I would like to read on it as well as I do the Kindle, I would just the the Ipad and not get another Kindle. But, I will need to see what the problem is first. I really enjoy the Kindle and wanted to keep it just for my books. It is so fast and convenient to use. At least for me since I like the typing pad on the outside rather then the touch pad. But, I suppose I will learn how to use the new one? I am just so illierate when it comes to using any electronics. I cannot use a remote control,.:) I only use my computer for email, chatting and surfing since I do not know how to use many of the functions and applications that are available on it. I do not even have text on my cell phone. I have kept my electronic to a minumim. But, I thought I might enjoy the Appple Ipad and could learn to use it online so I would not have to have the computer on all the time?  But, I cannot beleive how expensive it is compared to a netbook or laptop when they will do much more than the Tablet. I suppose the Ipad is a luxury for those who can afford all the lasted new technical items available.
    I did try a Pandigital Tablet before I bought the Kindle and did not like it at all. So, I returned it and got the Kindle and was so pleased that I could use it so easily. And I did not need the color screen, I just hope the Apple Tablet will be easier to use than the Pandigital or I am afraid, I will be to hard for me to learn to use it and be able to  take full advantage of of getting around on the internet, I had a problem with the ohter touch screen scrolling back up before I had finished typing in all the information I needed. And I had to download from Barnes and Nobels and there selection was not nearly as good as the Kindle and they were much higher.
    So if anyone is patent enough to read all this and can understand what I need and could provide your  expert advice, suggestion and opinions, I would love to hear from you and any or all the issue in which I need help.
    Thanks - Sunny in SC

  • Need Advice WRT iPod Purchase - Which Model?

    I've never considered buying an iPod before, but I've been making a lot of business trips by car in the past couple of years, so having music to play all long the way would be A Good Thing. But, which model to buy???
    I don't think I'll have the need to play videos, but I like the idea of having an info screen. I'm not sure the Shuffle is for me, because I'd like to have more control over what's playing and what to play next. But I can't imagine having more than 6 or 10 albums stored at any given time. My tastes in music just aren't that broad.
    However, I have thought about the option an 80GB iPod would give me. That is, I could copy all of the installer disc images for all of the Final Cut Studio discs and the latest updates to the OS and support apps. Then when I'm on a Final Cut system support call, I'd have all the files I'd need in a very small package, rather than a large firewire drive.
    So, advice anyone? Thanks.

    Thank you. Yes, I'm familiar with that type of FW drive. That would be buying two new devices. Not out of the question, but if I could get by with one, it would be a bonus.
    The iPod nano, huh? I assume the display on those will help me see what's playing and what song I can choose to play next, right?

  • Which is a better performer, the macbook air or the mac mini?

    Which one performs better, the late 2013 macbook air (standard configuration: 4GB RAM, dual core i5 1,3 Ghz CPU) or the mac mini core quad core i7, 4GB RAM with a regular hard disc?

    LowLuster 
    No Air model can be as fast as a Mini with a quad core i7 CPU. Can't happen.
    I didnt solicit your opinion, and it IS a fact, .....skilled users here on this board will and DO TELL other users OFTEN that:
    "outside of processor core use (video/ photo etc.) you will NOT NOTICE ANY DIFFERENCE on X computer vs. slower Y computer"
    I have a 8 month old QUAD core Mac Mini and it is , as I said above "noticeably not ONE BIT" faster than my current 2013 macbook Air with 8gig.
    My quad core came with 4gig of RAM as I recall, I immediately tossed in 16gig.
    Notice the word "noticeably"
    Your subjective hyperbole aside, you are wrong......., those above yourself and myself (point wise,...as Ogel has stated, Clinton has stated, and others) state this fact very often regarding ---"outside of processor core use (video/ photo etc.) you will NOT NOTICE ANY DIFFERENCE on X computer vs. slower Y computer"
    Its not my opinion, its a fact, namely additionally that I stated "noticeably"   - "my quad core mac mini on MOST EVERYTHING (which is most things since 'most things' are NOT photo and video editing) is not "noticeably" ONE BIT faster than my Macbook Air.
    "most things" people do (most people) on their computer does NOT involve photo and video editing (photoshop pro, final cut pro etc etc)
    This is a fact, that AS SUCH most people WILL NOT notice any difference in general computer use between a quad core mac mini (for example) and a entry level macbook Air. (SSD vs. HD speeds aside).       Nobody is going to notice faster youtube, or Word use, or websurfing, Acrobat Pro, Quicktime play, general APPS that havent changed much in 7 years.
    Dont curse on these family boards please, its uncouth.
    Peace

  • Will upscaling or using clone stamp/healing brush to upsize give better resolution?

    I'm designing a 5.25" square CD cover using a rectangular image and the resolution needs to be min. 300ppi to print .  The artist sent me the art image (painting) from her camera as a jpeg and it goes to photoshop as a large (approx 20" X 24") file at 72 ppi.  To change the ppi to 300 without resampling (I've been told this is best), the image becomes too narrow (4 1/2") and too high (5.9"). 
    I don't want to crop because I don't want to lose content.  I want the image to completely cover the CD cover  And I want to keep the same proportions for certain parts of the image.  So I believe my two best options are as follows:
    1.  Bring the image to 300ppi with the measurements above, protect certain parts of the image on an alpha channel, content aware scale the rest of the image wider to make it square and then resize down a bit for the CD cover or
    2.  Bring the image to 300ppi and then use the clone stamp and healing brush tool or content aware fill (doesn't work so well on this image) to duplicate and extend the sides of the image to widen and square it and then resize down a bit for the CD cover. 
    Does anyone know which of these options will give the best resolution?  Is upscaling more likely to cause pixelization than the other option?  Is there a better way?  Should I do options 1 and 2 to the large 72 resolution image instead of bringing it to 300ppi first and then upscale or clone stamp--would that give better results?
    Thanks, any help is greatly appreciated!

    You've said that you don't want to crop, and you want to cover the entire CD cover. That leaves you with two choices. Extend the short side(s) via cloning, content aware fill, etc. or stretch the image in one direction, either with the standard free-transform or with content aware transform. See what looks best. Your resolution will be fine. You can res up if you need to. The amount you're short will not matter here. Leave room for bleed - usually 1/8".

  • Which is a better IDE?

    Hi,
    Please give me your suggestions on which is a better IDE
    amongst Sun One Studio and JBuilder SE?
    How is NetBeans?
    Thanks in advance,
    npaila

    I have tried:
    JCreator
    Jipe
    RealJ
    VisualJ++
    BlueJ
    Jgrasp
    NetBeansIDE
    and some editors
    vim
    crimson editor
    Of these BlueJ is really popular in university courses - it is very good and actively supported & developed. However, I find it a bit too slow even "gluggy" when menu items are selected. RealJ and JCreator are nice, clean and simple. NetBeans is very powerful and hence very complex so very hard to learn. Visual J++ is very easy to use - but I would say you wouldn't learn to code very well. I like JGrasp the best out of all of these, it is really a half strength IDE.
    It's such a personal thing. You just have to keep trying new ones until you find an IDE that is easy for you to work with and works the way that makes sense to you.

    There never was a V3. The very first firmware version for the N95-1 was V10. Then there were V11, V12, V20, V21 and the latest is V30. There was a V31 released a few weeks back but it was removed almost immediately.
    If you can't update to V30 it could be because of either or both of these reasons:
    1) You live in a part of the world for which the updated version hasn't yet been translated. For each model there are multiple product codes, each one for a different area and/or mobile network operator.
    2) There is an update available for your part of the world but you have a phone supplied by your operator who hasn't yet approved it. Read this page.
