  • Toshiba Laptop Problem - Black Screen on Startup [using Win Vista]

    - by BubblySue
    Hi guys, can anyone help me on my problem? I only see black screen after the startup.. It just shows the logo and the status bar upon start, then it goes black screen with moveable cursor. I tried alt+ctrl+del, but it doesn't work. I pressed shift 5 times and it makes a sound. I already removed battery and restarted it, but still the same. I can go to safe mode and scanned thru there. Still, desktop won't show up. Don't know what else to check? Been searching the net for solutions. Please help? :(

  • How to convert a MSSQL database (including procedures, functions and triggers) to a firebird databas

    - by user193655
    I am considering migrating to Firebird. To have a "quick start" approach I downloaded the trial of a conversion tool (DBConvert) and tried it. I just picked up a random tool, this tool doesn't convert procedures, functions and triggers (I don't think it is a limit of the trial since there is not an explicit reference to sp, sf and triggers in the link above). Anyway by trying that tool I had the message: "The DB cannot be converted succesfully because some FK names are too long." This is because in some tables I have FK whose description is 32 chars. Is this a real firebird limit or it is possible to overcome it somehow (of course renaming the FK is an extreme option because it is extra work)? Anyway how to convert a MS SQL DB fully to FIREBIRD? Is there a valid tool? Did someone succed in a conversion of non trivial databases?

  • Stopping pirates

    - by Pirate for Profit
    Okay, what do I do to stop pirates? Obviously a callhome to internet service. We are considering making some major aspects be dependent on a web service of some sort. Memory offsets and cracking. If I like rand randomly to allocate empty memory on the heap, would this throw off the crackers? I hacked some memory shit for EverQuest back in the dizzay but don't really know much about this. Registry on windows, etc., I know theres ways to identify the computer. That's easily spoofed with hex editor, but if I jumble up the strings in the program would that help? I need to know that + real ideas. I want the serials of their sound cards. Any other ideas?

  • What is the Simplest Possible Payment Gateway to Implement? (using Django)

    - by b14ck
    I'm developing a web application that will require users to either make one time deposits of money into their account, or allow users to sign up for recurring billing each month for a certain amount of money. I've been looking at various payment gateways, but most (if not all) of them seem complex and difficult to get working. I also see no real active Django projects which offer simple views for making payments. Ideally, I'd like to use something like Amazon FPS, so that I can see online transaction logs, refund money, etc., but I'm open to other things. I just want the EASIEST possible payment gateway to integrate with my site. I'm not looking for anything fancy, whatever does the job, and requires < 10 hours to get working from start to finish would be perfect. I'll give answer points to whoever can point out a good one. Thanks!

  • How to handle different roles with different previliges in PHP?

    - by user261002
    I would like to know how we can create different "user Roles" for different users in PHP. example: Administrator can create all types of users, add, view, manipulate data, delete managers, viewers, and workers, etc managers can only create, workers and viewers, can add and view data, workers can't create new users, but can only add data and view data, viewers can only view data that has been added to the DB by workers, managers and administrators. I though its better to use different sessions like : $_SESSION['admin'] $_SESSION['manager'] $_SESSION['worker'] $_SESSION['viewvers'] and for every page check which of them have a true or yes value, but I want to know how do they do it in real and big projects??? is there any other way???

  • A good approach to db planing for reporting service

    - by Itay Moav
    The scenario: Big system (~200 tables). 60,000 users. Complex reports that will require me to do multiple queries for each report and even those will be complex queries with inner queries all over the place + some processing in PHP. I have seen an approach, which I am not sure about: Having one centralized, de-normalized, table that registers any activity in the system which is reportable. This table will hold mostly foreign keys, so she should be fairly compact and fast. So, for example (My system is a virtual learning management system), A user enrolls to course, the table stores the user id, date, course id, organization id, activity type (enrollment). Of course I also store this data in a normalized DB, which the actual application uses. Pros I see: easy, maintainable queries and code to process data and fast retrieval. Cons: there is a danger of the de-normalized table to be out of sync with the real DB. Is this approach worth considering, or (preferably from experience) is total $#%#%t?

  • Hopefully simple topic to spark some good opinions, Question is MySQL or SQL Server???

    - by magellings
    I'm beginning development of a website and a high priority is for it to be extremely optimized, quick responses, etc. There will ultimately end up being large amounts of rows in the main tables (millions), so scalability is also important. It will need to use a database on the back-end for data storage and my web hosting service supports either MySQL or Sql Server. This website will be developed with .NET ASP.NET MVC with NHibernate (hopefully it can run in medium trust mode, as that is a requirement of my web hosting and reflection requirements of NHibernate may be problematic, maybe someone has a comment on this too). I'd also prefer to use the database that will require the least attention in regards to management. I don't want to have to be a DBA here. :) I wanted to through this topic out to the public to see what the community thinks? So MySQL or Sql Server, generally, which one would be better to use?

  • Eclipse And Linux: Keyboard unusable after gnome-screen-saver

    - by Martijn Courteaux
    Hi, I know this is not programming related. But I can't find any topics on Google or UbuntuForums. So the problem is: When gnome-screensaver starts on the moment Eclipse has the focus and I wake up again my laptop, Eclipse doesn't listen to keyboard-events. To solve this I have to change the focus to another program and then back to Eclipse. Than it works again. This isn't a real problem, but it would be nice if someone can solve it. Thanks

  • What lessons can you learn from software maintanence?

    - by Vasil Remeniuk
    Hello everyone, In the perfect world, all the software developers would work with the cutting edge technologies, creating systems from the scratch. In the real life, almost all of us have to maintain software from time to time (unlucky ones do it on a regular basis). Personally I first 2 years of my career was fixing bugs in the company that no longer exists (it has been taken up by Oracle). And probably the biggest lesson I've learned that time - despite of the pressure, always try to get as much information about the domain as possible (even if it's irrelevant to fixing a specific bug or adding a feature) - abstract domain knowledge doesn't lose value as fast as knowledge about trendy frameworks or methodologies. What lessons have you learned from maintenance?

  • Android MapView High Res tiles?

    - by Nemi
    I have created a simple map app that shows the local garage sales in my town. It was simple enough to create and I parse out the Google Maps (html) xml doc that the local paper uses on their google maps mashup on their website. I have noticed that the Map Tiles used in the MapView class are not as high-res as the tiles used in the real Android Google Maps app (I have a Droid). I have searched the docs and google, but I cannot find any info on this. Actually, I can't even find anyone mentioning this, which surprises me and makes me think I am missing something simple. Is this a case of Google making the APIs available, but at a lower quality, or am I missing some setting that enables higher quality map tiles?

  • How to set timeout for exclusive lock in PostgreSQL

    - by Low Kian Seong
    I have an import script that was failing because of the 'Exclusive nowait' option I set my script. This caused the script to error out the first time it could not get the exclusive lock on the table. My script did it this way: "LOCK TABLE %s IN EXCLUSIVE MODE NOWAIT" Now my script works it's just that I want to be able to set the timeout for PostgreSQL instead of having it wait for the maximum time which is 15mins. I prefer to set it in posgresql.conf. Is there a way to do this?

  • how to pass arguments into function within a function in r

    - by jon
    I am writing function that involve other function from base R with alot of arguments. For example (real function is much longer): myfunction <- function (dataframe, Colv = NA) { matrix <- as.matrix (dataframe) out <- heatmap(matrix, Colv = Colv) return(out) } data(mtcars) myfunction (mtcars, Colv = NA) The heatmap has many arguments that can be passed to: heatmap(x, Rowv=NULL, Colv=if(symm)"Rowv" else NULL, distfun = dist, hclustfun = hclust, reorderfun = function(d,w) reorder(d,w), add.expr, symm = FALSE, revC = identical(Colv, "Rowv"), scale=c("row", "column", "none"), na.rm = TRUE, margins = c(5, 5), ColSideColors, RowSideColors, cexRow = 0.2 + 1/log10(nr), cexCol = 0.2 + 1/log10(nc), labRow = NULL, labCol = NULL, main = NULL, xlab = NULL, ylab = NULL, keep.dendro = FALSE, verbose = getOption("verbose"), ...) I want to use these arguments without listing them inside myfun. myfunction (mtcars, Colv = NA, col = topo.colors(16)) Error in myfunction(mtcars, Colv = NA, col = topo.colors(16)) : unused argument(s) (col = topo.colors(16)) I tried the following but do not work: myfunction <- function (dataframe, Colv = NA) { matrix <- as.matrix (dataframe) out <- heatmap(matrix, Colv = Colv, ....) return(out) } data(mtcars) myfunction (mtcars, Colv = NA, col = topo.colors(16))

  • Could not see memory being released on closing MFC modal dialog that hosts wpf user control using HW

    - by Naveen Chiluka
    This is in continuation with my last question posted "Continuous Memory leak while using WpfHWndSource" I have to load an WPF User Control in an MFC Modal Dialog that is being invoked from the ocx control. For this I have created a MFC Regular Dll(Mixed Mode Regular dll with clr option enabled), I have created a modal dialog which will host wpf user control using HWndSource. This exported dialog is placed as a child Dialog of the above MFC dialog that is being invoked from the ocx. Ny intermediate dialog uses C++/Cli code. When the main MFC dialog is closed, I am deleteing the ptr reference of the intermediate dialog created on the heap. In the the dipose of the .Net User Control, I have set most of the references that I have created to null, unsubscribed to the events (to avoid weak refernces), unbinded from the propertes(by using clear binding). Called delete on the HwndSource and the user control(which basically calls the dispose method). But I do not see complete memory being released. Any help would be greatful.

  • Actionbar scherlock is not refreshed when the orientation is changed

    - by SavasCinar
    I use Sherlock action bar in my application. I used "ifRoom|withText" feature in my menu. If I test my code in portrait mode, I can see only icon and if I rotate orientation to landscape, still I see only icon. On the other hand, if I run with landscape, I can see text and icon on portrait and landscape. This means that When the screen is rotated, action bar is not refreshed. How can I fix? In menu, I have android:showAsAction="ifRoom|withText" Also I used this line in my manifest file to fixed android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize" but it didn't work. And I run my code android 2.3 Also I used fragment in my activity, FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager(); ft = fm.beginTransaction(); mFragment1 = fm.findFragmentByTag("f1"); if (mFragment1 == null) { mFragment1 = new MenuFragment(); ft.add(mFragment1, "f1"); } ft.commit();

  • How to get current byte position of the parser in Antlr with c# target?

    - by Aftershock
    Hi, I am interested in the current byte position in the stream when parsing something using Antlr 3. I have seen there is a similar question but there was no real answer there. That is why I am trying again. I am not interested in token index, byte position in a line etc... Could you someone tell me that? It is obvious that some code has to be written/overridden. Does someone have specific code to write? I use C#.

  • How to flush data in php and disconnect user but keep the script alive

    - by Rodrigo
    This is a trick question, while developing a php+ajax application i felt into some long queries, nothing wrong with them, but they could be done in background. I know that there's a way to just send a reply to user while throwing the real processing to another process by exec(), however it dosen't feels right for me, this might generate exploits and it's not pratical on making it compatible with virtual servers and cross platform. PHP offers the ob_* functions although they help on flushing the cache, but the user will keep connected until the script is running. I'm wondering if there's an alternate to exec to keep a script running after sending data to user and closing connection/thread with apache, or a less "dirty" way to have processing data sent to another script.

  • another question about OpenGL ES rendering to texture

    - by ensoreus
    Hello, pros and gurus! Here is another question about rendering to texture. The whole stuff is all about saving texture between passing image into different filters. Maybe all iPhone developers knows about Apple's sample code with OpenGL processing where they used GL filters(functions), but pass into them the same source image. I need to edit an image by passing it sequentelly with saving the state of the image to edit. I am very noob in OpenGL, so I spent increadibly a lot of to solve the issue. So, I desided to create 2 FBO's and attach source image and temporary image as a textures to render in. Here is my init routine: glEnableClientState(GL_VERTEX_ARRAY); glEnableClientState(GL_TEXTURE_COORD_ARRAY); glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D); glPixelStorei(GL_UNPACK_ALIGNMENT, 1); glGetIntegerv(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_BINDING_OES, (GLint *)&SystemFBO); glImage = [self loadTexture:preparedImage]; //source image for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++) { fullquad[i].s *= glImage->s; fullquad[i].t *= glImage->t; flipquad[i].s *= glImage->s; flipquad[i].t *= glImage->t; } tmpImage = [self loadEmptyTexture]; //editing image glGenFramebuffersOES(1, &tmpImageFBO); glBindFramebufferOES(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_OES, tmpImageFBO); glFramebufferTexture2DOES(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_OES, GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT0_OES, GL_TEXTURE_2D, tmpImage->texID, 0); GLenum status = glCheckFramebufferStatusOES(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_OES); if(status != GL_FRAMEBUFFER_COMPLETE_OES) { NSLog(@"failed to make complete tmp framebuffer object %x", status); } glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0); glBindFramebufferOES(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_OES, 0); glGenRenderbuffersOES(1, &glImageFBO); glBindFramebufferOES(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_OES, glImageFBO); glFramebufferTexture2DOES(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_OES, GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT0_OES, GL_TEXTURE_2D, glImage->texID, 0); status = glCheckFramebufferStatusOES(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_OES) ; if(status != GL_FRAMEBUFFER_COMPLETE_OES) { NSLog(@"failed to make complete cur framebuffer object %x", status); } glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0); glBindFramebufferOES(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_OES, 0); When user drag the slider, this routine invokes to apply changes -(void)setContrast:(CGFloat)value{ contrast = value; if(flag!=mfContrast){ NSLog(@"contrast: dumped"); flag = mfContrast; glBindFramebufferOES(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_OES, glImageFBO); glClearColor(1,1,1,1); glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT|GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT); glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION); glLoadIdentity(); glOrthof(0, 512, 0, 512, -1, 1); glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW); glLoadIdentity(); glScalef(512, 512, 1); glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, tmpImage->texID); glViewport(0, 0, 512, 512); glVertexPointer(2, GL_FLOAT, sizeof(V2fT2f), &fullquad[0].x); glTexCoordPointer(2, GL_FLOAT, sizeof(V2fT2f), &fullquad[0].s); glDrawArrays(GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP, 0, 4); glBindFramebufferOES(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_OES, 0); } glBindFramebufferOES(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_OES,tmpImageFBO); glClearColor(0,0,0,1); glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT); glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D); glActiveTexture(GL_TEXTURE0); glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION); glLoadIdentity(); glOrthof(0, 512, 0, 512, -1, 1); glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW); glLoadIdentity(); glScalef(512, 512, 1); glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, glImage->texID); glViewport(0, 0, 512, 512); [self contrastProc:fullquad value:contrast]; glBindFramebufferOES(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_OES, 0); [self redraw]; } Here are two cases: if it is the same filter(edit mode) to use, I bind tmpFBO to draw into tmpImage texture and edit glImage texture. contrastProc is a pure routine from Apples's sample. If it is another mode, than I save edited image by drawing tmpImage texture in source texture glImage, binded with glImageFBO. After that I call redraw: glBindFramebufferOES(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_OES, SystemFBO); glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT); glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION); glLoadIdentity(); glOrthof(0, kTexWidth, 0, kTexHeight, -1, 1); glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW); glLoadIdentity(); glScalef(kTexWidth, kTexHeight, 1); glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, glImage->texID); glViewport(0, 0, kTexWidth, kTexHeight); glVertexPointer(2, GL_FLOAT, sizeof(V2fT2f), &flipquad[0].x); glTexCoordPointer(2, GL_FLOAT, sizeof(V2fT2f), &flipquad[0].s); glDrawArrays(GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP, 0, 4); glBindFramebufferOES(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_OES, 0); And here it binds visual framebuffer and dispose glImage texture. So, the result is VERY aggresive filtering. Increasing contrast volume by just 0.2 brings image to state that comparable with 0.9 contrast volume in Apple's sample code project. I miss something obvious, I guess. Interesting, if I disabple line glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, glImage->texID); in setContrast routine it brings no effect. At all. If I replace tmpImageFBO with SystemFBO to draw glImage directly on display(and disabling redraw invoking line), all works fine. Please, HELP ME!!! :(

  • Is MS Reporting Services suitable for stand-alone reports?

    - by JMarsch
    Hello all: I work for a ISV. Our product can use both SQL Server and Oracle as its back-end server. It includes a number of reports (currently in Crystal). We are investigating moving to Micrsoft Reporting Services, but I'm beginning to think that it's a bad idea. We want for our reports to look and feel as though they are a part of our application, and we will not require SQL Server (the customer can choose Oracle). Although I see the reporting services supports a stand-alone mode (RDLC), the boundry between what requires SQL server and what doesn't looks extremely ambiguous. (example, the stand-alone report builder appears to require SQL Server, most of the documentation appears to be part of SQL Server's documentation) It looks to me like if I want to keep my application DB-agnostic, I had better steer clear of Reporting Services. Have I missed the boat here?

    I want to implement the command line features like in a linux terminal. I saw this in ftp command also. If I press tab I need to list the commands. If I press control characters I need to get that characters based on that I will do some action. And if I give any commands it should execute. For this I tried with Term::ReadKey that is in non-canonical mode. But here I am facing more problems like if I press any control character or arrow I got three characters. For the up arrow I got ASCII 27 91 65. Can anyone help me out of this problem?

QA is written in C#.NET, QB and QAW are written in VB6. QAW is a COM wrapper of QA. In the calling code I create an Activation Context and load a manifest file. All works fine from the exe created with VB6, but not in debug mode in VB6 or in Excel's VBA. I have the full example in zip. Any ideas what it is that is different about the IDE call and why it doesn't work? Many Thx -- DM

  • Non laggy movement in Flex or WPF

    - by PaN1C_Showt1Me
    I'm trying to learn something about 2D games programming. For this purpose I've downloaded many samples developed in: Flex and Microsoft WPF. I've noticed that all the animations / moving objects are kind of non-smooth. I've seen a Flex example with double buffering which solved the image flickering, but it was laggy too. WPF example too. Just to mentioned, all examples were drawing on Canvas. I'm just curious, is it possible to have a wonderful non-laggy movement on the GUI in Flash or WPF ? (e.g. like a real game, coded in C++)

  • Images to video - converting to IplImage makes video blue

  • How should important terms be emphasized in documentation?

    - by John Rasch
    Software will often introduce and formalize concepts that may have ambiguous definitions in the real world. For example, in an attendance tracking system, an Occurrence refers to an Excused Absence, an Unexcused Absence, or a Tardy. In technical documentation (both in helper text and in user guides, etc), should these concepts be proper nouns, and as such, should they be capitalized in usage? In other words, which of the following examples is more appropriate: After an Occurrence has been created, it may be converted into an Excused Absence once the Approval Form has been uploaded. or After an occurrence has been created, it may be converted into an excused absence once the approval form has been uploaded.
