Why does this VI not work?

I have a VI here, which I'm having a really hard time understanding the error which occurs when I run it.
What it should do is loop through the indicators (they are string
indicators set to transparent) in the cluster and set the caption
text to the corresponding value in the numeric array.
Can someone please explain to me why I'm getting an error?
Thanks
Bjorn

Hi Holomorph,
Once the caption is made visible, on each of the cluster-objects, your VI works!
...but the reason for the error is: there's no Caption to change - until it's created - by being made visible [once] first - it can be hidden after that.
cheers

There seems to be a block with the Internet server in the United States as other Internet and cell servers i.e. Verizon and Century-Link DSL work with Mac, Andriod and PC. It just seems to be Mac on Comcast that is not...
Without more data I'm inclined to say it's more likely to be Comcast itself, rather than 'Macs on Comcast'.
For example, do other devices (PCs, Android, iOS) on that Comcast network also have problems connecting? or do they connect fine?
I'd expect that any device at that network has a problem, which indicates a problem with Comcast. It might be their DNS not resolving properly, or them not routing data correctly, but that should be your focus.
Perform a DNS lookup on the www.gordonbennett2012.ch hostname. What result do you get? Is it the expected address?
If that returns the right address, what do you get with a traceroute?
That will test the routing befween your system and the server, and may indicate other problems on the network.

Repaint() an applet from a swing applet, why does this code not work?

below are three files that work as planned except for the call to repaint(). This is envoked when a button is hit in one applet and it should repaint another applet. I opened them up in a html file that simply runs both applets. If you could see why the repaint doesn't work I'd love to know. good luck.

I can fix your problems
1. You get an error here because you can only invoke the superclass's constructor in the subclass's constructor. It looks like that's what you're trying to do, but you're not doing it right. Constructors don't return any value (actually they do, but it's implied, so you don't need the void that you've got in your code)
2. I'm not sure, but I think your call to show might be wrong. Move the setsize and setvisible calls to outside of the constructor

WHY DOES THIS SQL NOT WORK

I have 4 statements.
echo off
plus80 / @z:\nesp1483_batch
plus80 / @z:\nesp1484a_batch
exit
The first statement plus80 / @z:\nesp1484_batch inserts records into a table and creates a report and deletes the table.
However the second statement plus80 / @z:\nesp1484a_batch is not working properly. I want it to insert records into a table, create a report and then delete the table but it is not working properly. It is hanging up on this statement.
I need to say plus80 to get the program to execute properly.
I have also tried sqlplus /@z:\nesp1484a_batch but this does not work either.
What do I need to do to make the third statement to execute properly?

I know that it is not working
because the response time is slow and I have over 15 minutes
and nothing is happening. How do you know it is not working as opposed to just working slow?
Do you have any logging routines in your code? If you have, switch on them on and see what's happening. If not, now is a good time to think about including them...
Cheers, APC

Why does this expression not work as I'd hoped?

I have a Black Solid 3 with a CC Particle World placed within it. I have some particles set up to run at 0.01 velocity outward from the center of my composition. I've put the following expression on the Velocity setting:
value = thisComp.layer("Audio Amplitude").effect("Both Channels")("Slider");
if (value > 50) 20 else 0.01
The Audio Amplitude layer it is linked to is a auto-keyframe layer created from a .mp3 file - the values that it hits during the most intense part of the song range from 1 to around 85-90.
Why does my velocity setting remain at 0.01 consistently, despite it being clearly evident that the Audio Amplitude layer is going far over 50.
P.S.: If I change the > sign to a < sign, it stays at 20. Why?
EDIT: Okay, it seems the issue was having the variable named as 'value'. Now that it works, it still doesn't seem to work as intended - I'd wanted the particles to move very slowly outward, and then whenever bass was detected, to speed up, until the bass was no longer detected, in which case it would return to a slow pace again, anyone have any idea how I'd go about doing this?

One way is to prepare a "Remap Speed" slider somewhere in the comp that will control the remapping speed, and animate it.
0 = time lock, 1 = normal speed, 2 = speedx2, etc
Then in the time remap property of the layer, set this expression:
s = [pickwhip the "Remap Speed" slider]
t=inPoint;    // normal time
T=inPoint;    // remapped time
dt = thisComp.frameDuration;
TIME = time-0.001;
while (t<TIME){
    T+= s.valueAtTime(t) * dt;
    t+=dt;
T;
Ok i reread the original post again, in your case the "Remap Speed" slider could have the expression:
value = thisComp.layer("Audio Amplitude").effect("Both Channels")("Slider");
if (value > 50) 1 else 0.01          // above 50 : normal speed, under : very small speed

Chart timestamp accelerating - why does this VI not work?

In fighting with TDMS files, I decided to experiment with a different approach to get what I need - a stripchart with a long history, that I can pause and scroll back through to look for anomolies. Came up with a clever (I thought) approach to it... Not the most elegant, but it should work. In the attached VI, I have 2 charts simulating my data on the left, and 2 charts that will be my scrollable history on the right. I worked out how to apply a correct timestamp to the charts, and am basically just passing the history from the source chart to the history one - unless the "pause" button is on, which allows me to scroll back. All of the charts are set with a window of 300 points, and the VI cycles at 200ms, so it should be a 1 minute active window before it scrolls off the edge and into the buffer. The chart buffer size is set for 180000 for each chart, which should be 10 hours of data at this polling rate.
I start the program, everything is fine. Both sets of charts begin populating, the timestamp is chugging away in 1 second intervals, it looks beautiful. Then it all falls apart. Once the chart is full, and begins scrolling, the timestamp goes nuts and begins accelerating. It takes exactly 1 minute to fill the chart from empty, then the timestamp starts flying much faster - at least twice the speed, as the data being collected (and the actual time elapsed). I haven't been able to determine if it is a set multiplier in speed, or if it is ramping up faster and faster.
So... How is this possible? I can't see what the code could be doing to cause this. It's so very frustrating, because the pause and scroll feature works perfectly, just like I planned it. But without an accurate timestamp, this is completely useless.
Edit - oops, attached old version of VI, updated with correct one now.

I didn't run the code, but it sounds like this - http://lavag.org/topic/16789-chart-scale-falling-out-of-sync-with-data-grid/ . You can check if he found a solution.
Personally, I tend to use XY graphs because they allow more control and don't require a single dx for all points. They are more of a pain because you have to buffer the data yourself, but the code for that is reasonably easy and I believe there's an XY chart example in the example finder.

Why does this code not work?

String answer = new String("");
in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader( connection.getInputStream ()));
String test = new String("");
for (int i = 0 ; i < 1000 ; i++)
answer = in.readLine();
if (answer == null)
System.out.println ("null");
break;
else
test += answer;
System.out.println ("answer: " + answer);
System.out.println ("test: " + test);
Many times, the loop will go through 2 iterations but each time, test is only equal to the first answer. The second, third, fourth etc.time it goes through the loop, it should concatenate the value of answer to the end of the string variable test. So why is it that whenever i run the program that has this code, the loop might lloop many times (let's say 2 time) but the value of test is only the first answer, and not the first answer concatenated with the second answer.

It worked for me...my code looks like this...i used FileInputStream instead of connection..
import java.io.*;
class Forum {
public static void main(String a[]) throws IOException{
    String answer = new String("");
    BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader( new FileInputStream("hi.txt")));
    String test = new String("");
    for (int i = 0 ; i < 1000 ; i++)
    answer = in.readLine();
    if (answer == null)
    System.out.println ("null");
    break;
    else
    test += answer;
    System.out.println ("answer: " + answer);
    System.out.println ("test: " + test);
my hi.txt is like this:
fasd rea reks krie
fsdfasd
asdfasd
sfasdf
asdfasd
The output is
answer: fasd rea reks krie
answer: fsdfasd
answer: asdfasd
answer: sfasdf
answer: asdfasd
null
test: fasd rea reks kriefsdfasdasdfasdsfasdfasdfasd
Is this not the way u want???

Why does this script not work when run with osascript cli?

I wrote the following to interface with geektool to display a list of todo's on my desktop (i'm sure it's been done elsewhere, but I wanted to try it myself). I had it working fine until I tried ordering the output to place the highest priority items at the top of the list. The following code works properly during development in Script Editor, but when geektool launches the command using osascript ~/Library/Scripts/todos.scpt it only displays the initial "TODOS:" without displaying the rest of the info. Searching the Applescript Release notes, I found that some versions of Applescript 1.8 had issues with null characters when using the osascript cli, however, I'm running 1.10.7 so it shouldn't be an issue (and I'm not sure how to check for null characters in Applescript even if it were). Anybody have any ideas on what's going on here?
set output to {"TODOS:
set highpri to {}
set medium to {}
set low to {}
set nada to {}
tell application "iCal"
repeat with i in calendars
repeat with j in todos of i
if (completion date of j as string) is equal to "" then
if priority of j as string is equal to "high priority" then
copy summary of j & "
" to end of highpri
end if
if priority of j as string is equal to "medium priority" then
copy summary of j & "
" to end of medium
end if
if priority of j as string is equal to "low priority" then
copy summary of j & "
" to end of low
end if
if priority of j as string is equal to "no priority" then
copy summary of j & "
" to end of nada
end if
end if
end repeat
end repeat
end tell
return (output & highpri & medium & low & nada) as string

well, i'd been pulling my hair out for quite a while with this and decided it was time to ask for help, but I thought I'd give it one last shot and found a resolution almost immediately. I figured that problem had to be caused by the way applescript was concatenating the lists, so I got rid of the lists completely and it still wouldn't work. This convinced me that it must be newline related since that was the only special character left in the string. I opened up the script in vi, but the default compiled script format is not human readable. The osascript man page indicated that it would accept both compiled and text scripts, so I gave it a try, and osascript handled the raw text file wonderfully.

Why does my imessage not work with only 1 phone number

Why does my imessage not work with only 1 phone number? It keeps going to imessage and then back to text message

Both you and the recipient have to have active data connections, and both devices have to have iOS 5 or higher to be able to use iMessage. Also, they both have to have iMessage activated. If that is already the case, there is a possiblility that iMessage is down. It has gone up and down several times in the past week.
