Why is Get_Item_Property ('my_item', Canvas_Name) undocumented?

I found yesterday, that canvas_name is working and it does a very good job in my webforms-environment.
Is it undocumented, because it is obsolet, it becomes obsolet or is it still forgotten in the doc's ?
Gerd

Get_item_property('BLOCK.ITEMX', Item_Canvas ) is documented. You should probably use that instead.

  • Undocumented/default "pix" User in Cisco ASA

    Hi -
    I came across a username at a new customer I was not aware off: "pix".(I felt like an Idiot looking through "show run all" not seeing the user after 5 years of descent asa/pix experience)
    While I am usually using username/password/priv-level and aaa authentication on my ASA configurations, this customer is using a user "pix" which is invisible in the "show run" and "show run all" command or even the "more system:flash" command. IMO it is a rather bad practice to use a user which would not survive any current configuration backup mechanisms or even worse open a firewall with a default user after some kind of configuration recovery/reset.
    Anybody any Idea why people would use this undocumented user - why there is a user on the Cisco ASA which can be used to login with - or where in the world this user is stored with its password? - Is this a kind of TAC backdoor to lost passwords?
    Regards
    Robert

    "asa" or "pix" are default fallback username that can be used in some scenarios if other authentication methods are unavailable.
    I think we removed them in the latest ASA code (later 8.3 or 8.4).
    I agree with you. This is not secure.

    This is a great example of why you shouldn't use undocumented functions. As we always say, Oracle can choose to change it's functionality and there's nothing you can do about it. It's not a bug, it's just what Oracle have chosen to do. If it was a documented function and the functionality had changed such that documented functionality of it was no longer working, then you'd have a right to complain and raise a bug issue with Oracle. You'll just have to rewrite your code to use a proper way of aggregating your data, such as a user defined aggregate function e.g.

  • Export / Import ---  Encrypt the data

    Hi,
    Is it posible to encrypt some data in a table during export/import in oracle 9i database (not in 10g)?
    Best regards
    RajaBaskar

    The main reason why people assume there are undocumented features, is because they can't be bothered to adhere to the Forums Etiquette and read the documentation prior to asking their doc question.I do not see a reason to be so rude on this. If every person reads all the documentation and uses all the features of Support services or is aware of those then we do not need these forums at all.
    I mean no offence and I agree with you in lot of other cases when people just come up with unnecessary posts but this one I see as a legitimate issue which lot of dbas find in their normal work life when they have to send an export dump to a partner outside their network and the export contains sensitive data.

  • Why is Code Navigator disabled (and undocumented)?

    Hi all.
    I was editing some PHP that had a lot of functions in it.  I went to activate Code Navigator, but it was disabled in the View menu.  Anyone know why?
    I searched the help and got zero results for "code navigator", which is pretty lame.
    Thanks for any insight.

    Thank you.  It does help explain what Code Navigator does do.  I notice that's from the CS4 documentation.  Hopefully the CS5 doc will be complete by the time CS6 comes out.
    So from this I gather that there's no way to see a list of functions in the current file and jump between them.  That's not an acceptable omission for a development tool.
    Looks like it's back to Coda or Espresso.

  • Why are most of my keywords not included when I export images?

    Why are most of my keywords not included when I export images?
    Since starting with Lightroom 1, I've entered keywords into either of the two fields between "keyword tags" and "keyword suggestions" in the keywording panel.  I was unaware that some keywords are more equal than others, or that Lightroom offered (or has added?) hierarchy support.
    I recently stumbled into the news (to me) that Lightroom tags can be organized into a hierarchy, so I exported my keywords to a text file to examine.  I hadn't unwittingly created any hierarchies, but an astounding fraction of the keywords were within square brackets.  Sure enough, if I export an image, keywords within square brackets are omitted from the output (jpeg) file.  How nice.  Since I began with Lightroom 1, I've added nearly 1600 keywords.. Too bad most of them are coded wrong... so as not to accompany output that I create.
    1.     What was I supposed to do, as a photographer beginning to use Lightroom, to enter keywords simply but reliably:  what I type is what I get? I'd expected that's what the "just type here" interface would provide.
    I especially dislike obtaining erratic results:  most keywords are in square brackets, but a few are not.  Of course, when I use a simplified interface, I should expect not to have access to some of the options or features.  However, I shouldn't inadvertently trigger undocumented behavior.
    2.     Does the Adobe reference help system say how to enter keywords simply and reliably, in its documentation of the keywording panel? I don't find my answer under the Keywords topic, within Home / Using Photoshop Lightroom 3 / Organizing photos in the catalog.
    (I NOW realize that the instructions for the "Create/Edit keyword tags" dialog mention exporting. However, that's not the method I was using.)
    Dick Rawson

    I'm afraid that I distracted you with my background mention of hierarcharial keywords; I'm not asking about them.
    I've entered keywords for several years of using Lightroom.  Suddenly, this week, I find that most (yet not all) of them have the attribute of "don't include the keyword in an exported file's metadata."  I never intended to ask for that; I thought all keywords will stay with the file and its offspring, and that's what I wanted.
    So I'm asking:
    1.     What did I do "wrong" to induce Lightroom to give the keywords that attribute? I never intended to ask it to.
    2.     Where does Adobe document how to enter keywords reliably so that they stay with the file on output?  I can't find that Adobe does.
    > Can you be more clear about keywords in square brackets? I know when you export the keywords as a list you can get a normalized data file that uses punctuation and tabs as delimiters...
    I did export the keywords into such a list:  most keywords in the plain-text list have square brackets surrounding them, indicating keywords that will be omitted from metadata of any image that Lightroom exports.
    My concern is not that the brackets are there.  They encode the attribute of "don't include the keyword in an exported file's metadata," and recognizing that attribute concerns me.
    > ...but I've never seen keywords in image files or in the interface rendered so.
    I haven't, either.

  • Why not autoskip for radio buttons? and the  update_allowed FALSE issue

    I would so dearly love there to be autoskip for radio buttons. (forms 11.1.1.4 jre 6...24) There is no autoskip property for the radio group nor for the individual buttons.
    I don't find an easy way to emulate it either. Or am I missing something?
    Anyone else solve this problem already? When the user selects a radio choice I want the focus to move
    to the next enabled item on the form. You can do this with text items but not with radio groups. (In some cases the radio group has a when-radio-changed trigger
    that enables/disables following items). This would all be a lot easier if radio groups just had autoskip. I wonder why they don't?
    BTW the following has cost me a huge amount of time. In 6i it was the case in my experience that if you
    disabled an item like this:
    PROCEDURE disable_item (myitem in varchar2) IS
    BEGIN
         copy(null,myitem);
            set_item_property(myitem,enabled,property_false);
         set_item_property(myitem,visual_attribute,'DISABLED');
    END;Then that could be reversed as so (the weird thing was you had to set navigable also despite not
    having changed it yourself.
    PROCEDURE enable_item (myitem in varchar2) IS
    BEGIN
      set_item_property(myitem,enabled,property_true);
      set_item_property(myitem,navigable,property_true);
      set_item_property(myitem,visual_attribute,'ENABLED');
    END;But in 11.1.1.4 I had lots of trouble with Lov's not rising after the item had been disabled and then
    re-enabled. No error message. Just didn't do it. Eventually I figured out that what happens is that
    after disabling an item the item as also non-updateable. This was not the case in 6i. So then
    the enable item code has to be something like this: [Note despite that not update_allowed it did not
    automatically grey out the item firefox 3.6.17 and it still has to be done programmatically.]
    PROCEDURE enable_item (myitem in varchar2) IS
    BEGIN
      set_item_property(myitem,enabled,property_true);
      set_item_property(myitem,navigable,property_true);
      set_item_property(myitem,visual_attribute,'ENABLED');
      set_item_property(myitem,update_allowed,property_true);
    END;

    Well right now 11.1.1.4 for autoskip for radio buttons this seems to be working ok. Crossing my fingers!
    a block level when-radio-changed trigger with after scope (where item level when-radio-changed triggers
    have before scope) with a simple next_item in there.
    Where I was having problems before was next_item-ing onto disabled items. There was some kind of issue
    with lov's. I'm having less trouble raising the lov programmatically. but also I had the problem that
    items were getting set non-update_allowed without my realization.
    when new item instance:
    declare
         currfield varchar2(70) := null;
    begin     
         currfield := :system.trigger_field;
    if (get_item_property(currfield,UPDATE_ALLOWED) = 'TRUE')
         and (get_item_property(currfield,UPDATE_PERMISSION) = 'TRUE') then
           list_values;
    else
         mess(currfield || ' UPDATE not allowed');
    end if;
    end;(mess is my program to display alerts.)

  • Why can't I just get rid of the Metro UI altogether?

    I don't want it, I just want Windows to function like 7 does, however since you've decided to make DX12 Windows 10 only, I'm going to HAVE to upgrade at some point. 
    The metro crap is so annoying, like when I right click to disable my Wifi adapter in Network connections, it pulls up the Metro UI............... why? Why can't I right click and have a bar pop up where I've right clicked like how Windows has always done
    it. I fail to see how pulling up a different UI in another locations helps at all... just makes more button presses as I then have to do a few more clicks in there to get to where I just was on the Desktop.
    Since I have 3 monitors, the Metro UI always opens up on another monitor, which makes it even more annoying.
    I just want it all gone, I've never used it, I have no interest in your tablets or phone so I couldn't care less about it. Just give me a plain and simple Desktop for fuck sake!

    That assumes Microsoft actually has both the intention and the talent to change it for the better.
    Where's the evidence of that?
    With the latest build, 9860, we see what changes, exactly, after 3 weeks of work?
    Slight tweaks to the theme (which is ugly).
    New/adjusted window transition animations (which are annoying and don't handle the drop shadow properly).
    A new Notifications window that appears BEHIND an auto-hidden Taskbar.
    A prototype zPC Settings app that implies they're re-implementing the control panel in Metro/Modern.
    Event messages that are virtually all undocumented.
    No build symbols available on the Microsoft online symbol server.
    A Task Manager that still won't remember what tab it was last on.
    Gargantuan CPU and GPU power and we still can't resize a Metro/Modern app to be small.
    Ask yourself:  Do we see ANY evidence at all that Microsoft has made ANY direction change from pursuing that which caused Windows 8 to fail?
    Where is the innovation?  Where is the effort?  I'm just one engineer and I can tell you my own software products have changed more in the past 3 weeks than Windows has.

  • Why is the PWDCOMPARE function not supported on an Azure SQL Server 2014 database

    I have tried to publish a database from our local SQL Server to Azure but receive an error saying PWDCOMPARE is not supported with no link to a reason why.
    We are using HASHBYTES function to encrypt passwords in our database and
    PWDCOMPARE to validate them and we currently don't have an alternative (see article: http://sqlity.net/en/2460/sql-password-hash/). The PWDCOMPARE function is referenced by a stored procedure,
    which is what won't publish to Azure.
    It would be useful to know if it will be supported or if we should create a VM instead.
    EDIT: Further Clarified question above, but basically the functions listed are documented in MSDN and there is no mention of them being undocumented unsupported features.
    The error occurs when trying to publish a database to Azure from SQL Server 2014 Management Studio

    Hi,
    I am not an expert to answer this but am trying my best to answer this query.
    Hashes a password and compares the hash to the hash of an existing password. PWDCOMPARE can be used to search for blank SQL Server login passwords or common weak passwords.
    Syntax
    PWDCOMPARE ( 'clear_text_password'
       , password_hash
       [ , version ] )
    Note: This feature will be removed in the next version of Microsoft SQL Server. Do not use this feature in new development work, and modify applications that currently use this feature as soon as possible.
    I am not sure whether this feature is not available on SQL 2014.
    I think you can solve this issue by using the EXECUTE AS. Add this query into a procedure with EXECUTE AS with the user/login with sufficient permissions on the server.

  • GET_ITEM_PROPERTY in QOTLNDET_LINES block

    Hi,
    My requirement is like this, In QOTHDDET form, QOTLNDET_LINES block, whenever i am changing the agreement_name, i want to add a condition in my program to check whether the value got changed or not. for that i tried a condition like GET_ITEM_PROPERTY(FIND_ITEM('QOTLNDET_LINES.AGREEMENT_NAME'),DATABASE_VALUE) to check the database value, but whenever we change the lov its getting the latest lov instead of getting from the database. i tried with system.form_status to check whether it is in 'QUERY' or 'CHANGED' mode. but it is not working properly, even sometimes if i change the lov the record status is in 'QUERY' mode. i can't figure out why it is happening like this. can anybody suggest a workaround for this, as this is a very urgent requirement. please update me on this.

    ps> I am running all of these as applications not as applets.

    I believe that you are running into a problem with the version of the IMAGEHLP.DLL that you are running.
    DLLs are Dynamic Linked Libraries, containing native compiled functions available for use by applications.
    I am not familiar with that particular DLL (not really a windows programmer, just dabble occasionally ;-)) but it looks like the VM is trying to access a function in that DLL that is not available.
    As you probably already know the VM has to interface with native code and libraries to work on a given machine. In your case, it appears to be trying to interface with a portion of the native windowing/redraw/resize functionality.
    On Windows there is a real nightmare as there are multiple APIs for accessing the native functionality embedded in multiple DLLs of which there are often multiple different versions in circulation. You will find that sometimes certain functionality can only be accessed by using an undocumented feature of a DLL and these features can disappear or be moved between versions - that is one reason why I much prefer java to MS C++...
    There are a few things you can do to try and resolve this, see if there is a newer or older version of the JVM/Java3D extensions that works on your system, apply appropriate service packs or patches to windows if specified by the JVM/Java3D and update/change your graphics card drivers. Fixing this kind of problem in windows is a bit of a black art unless you can find someone who has had the exact same problem before and fixed it.
    All I can say now is good luck!

  • Why notify() and notifyall() is in Object class

    pls help me
    why notify() and notifyall() methods which are related to thread are define in Object class,instead of defining in Thread class

    shouldn't be called on thread objects ever
    at all (one of my pet peeves with Java)Why not? It would make a nice entry in the IOJJJ (International
    Obfuscated Java Juggling Jamboree) if it existed ;-)First of all, sorry for my bad english. It's early here :)Nah, it's just a late a rainy Sunday afternoon here, so no problem ;-)
    Second of all, the way that Thread is implemented, at least on
    windows, it that calling Thread.join does a wait() on that thread object.
    Thus, if you call notify() on a thread, you could actually be waking up
    joined threads, which wouldn't be good. And if you called wait, you
    could get woken up if the thread finishes which violates the contract of
    wait and notify to some extent and also relies on an undocumented
    feature.I take back my previous remark: it could not just be a nice little entry in
    the IOJJJ, it would be a great entry in that contest! ;-)
    kind regards,
