When I was trying to develop a module in which I loaded a new image to display
on the map some time ago, I had a similar problem, I generated the image but the
map didn't refresh itself. When I fired the event myself it started to work, I
think you have to explicity fire this event when you change the map data in your
code. The only difference between your code and mine is that you make a service
invocation from your ServiceWrapper and I directly call the MapServiceWrapper, I
never made a service invocation to load a new image on the map like what you are
trying to do, but I don't see what's the problem with your code. Try using the
MapServiceWrapper insted and see if that works, here is a portion of code of my
delegate class:

// Obtengo las coordenadas
Double[] coords = wrapper.zoom_cruce(calle, cruce, dataset);

// MapDelegate
IMapDelegate mapDelegate = (IMapDelegate) getCore().getDelegate("MapDelegate");

// Creo el map wrapper
MapServiceWrapper mapWrapper = new MapServiceWrapper();
mapWrapper.setCore(this.getCore());

// Obtengo parametros del mapa para carga inicial
Hashtable<String, Object> params = mapDelegate.getInitialMapParams();

// Agrego parametro snap_to_scale
if (mapDelegate.isCached()) {
    	 params.put("snap_to_scale", Boolean.TRUE);
}

Double coord_x = coords[0];
Double coord_y = coords[1];

// Ejecuto la accion de ir
mapWrapper.requestMap(IMapDelegate.MAP_NAME, coord_x, coord_y, 1000, 0, params);
this.getCore().fireEvent("map-data-changed");

We have the mid-tier (JBoss) running on a virtual server.  It's a little bit
slower, but it works.

For our development environment, we have only one magik service provider (MSP)
server which is a Citrix running inside a VMWare virtual machine.  Performance
took a significant hit, but we can't be sure where the bottleneck is.

We've also had some problems on the MSP back-end where sometimes the service
hangs and we had to manually kill the processes and re-start the MSP back-end. 
We did have this problem before the server was virtualized, but it seems more
frequent now.

The thing is, our other Citrix apps on that server were also unacceptably slow. 
We will be devirtualizing that server soon.

Hi..
     Adding the line this.getCore().fireEvent("map-data-changed");" to the code
didnot make any difference..there z no change in the map...

I think, event "map-data-changed" automatically gets fired once after there is
change in the map...So can u tell me wats d need of explictly firing this
event??

Hi all,

I'm using SW 3.3

I have an object, with a raster field :
Geometry type raster
Mandatory False
Grid type physical
Data type ds_byte
Default compression type none
Default generalisation level 4

I'm trying to load a color raster tiff file in a new record of this object,
using the editor of the object, but I get an error "Color map name not defined"

I've convert the file from BMP to Tiff, without any compression, with gimp

I don't understand what is this color map name, and where it have to be defined

can anybody help me ?

thanks
Bastien

Hi,

Is there any customer using SIAS server (we will use SIAS 4.1.2) on a virtual
machine. I have heard SIAS relies heavily on the hardware graphic capability. If
hosts SIAS on virtual machine, the performance will have a big hit. Is that
correct? Anyone else has the same problem?

Thanks,

Jacques

Did you tried to put this line "this.getCore().fireEvent("map-data-changed");"
after the line "wrapper.request();" on your delegate code?

Hi..

thanks 4 d reply...

The following lines of code myt help u understanding my problem...

request method in Bean class is

request()
{
     this.startMainRequest("HighlightObjects");
     delegate.request();
     this.endMainRequest("HighlightObjects");
}

request method in Delegate class

  request()
  {
     wrapper.request();
     return;
}

public void request()
{

   Hashtable<String, Object> params = new Hashtable<String, Object>();
   ArrayList<String> objects=new ArrayList<String>();
   objects.add("
swrefVrecordVdatasetZgisVcollectionZpub_restVkeysZThe$0020J5aebraQMaids$0020Caus\
eway ");

    params.put("map_update","zoom");
    params.put("map_name","Main-Map");
    params.put("colour","green");
    params.put("objects",objects);
    params.put("name","testmap");

   try
   {
    Response response = request("ejb/HighlightLocal", "highlightObjects",
params);
   }
   catch(Exception e)
    {
    }

    return;
}

On executing these above LOC, an image is generated with pub being highlighted
in green color and is stored in a temp folder.
how can i refresh SIAS client image with this new image??
what myt b missing in my code???pls help me out...

You might want to check out the "costing" features of the network tracer.  You
can create a method on your RWO exemplar that tells the network tracer how much
it costs to follow that route, and with a couple extra options passed into the
network follower engine, it will find the cheapest route.

I generally don't use Fixed styles as a rule. But if you have implemented all
your point styles at a 1m x 1m set of symbol components (good idea in my
opinion), then yes you can change the overall magnification of the various
display scales in the ACE.
Bring up the ACE dialog and select the Display Styles (Scale Configuration)
dialog where you can modify the magnification of ALL the styles at once for a
particular Display Scale.

NOTE: this magnification factor is used in conjunction with the magnification of
each point style as well.

Hi, I'm not sure I understand what your problem is. You generate a new image to
display on the map but the it doesn't refresh it?. If that's the case, I had the
same problem some time ago. Perhaps you are missing some of this things: after
you load your image on your delegate class, let's say  you use the method
requestMap of the MapServiceWrapper, you have to fire the event map-data-changed
with this line:

this.getCore().fireEvent("map-data-changed");

You also have to put this code on the invocation of your delegate method, in
your Bean class:

this.startMainRequest("my_request_id");
delegate.my_method(...);
this.endMainRequest("my_request_id");

Hope that helps.

Hi Alfred,

I use the same method of creating a macro, and that coupled with the Excel VBA
help means I've always been able to do pretty much what I want.

Interestingly, the macro my actions create is somewhat different to yours:

Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
' Macro recorded 12/11/2009 by cw
'

'
     Columns("A:A").Select
     Selection.Sort Key1:=Range("A2"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlGuess, _
         OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom
End Sub


I have taken note of your point that I was using columns rather than a specific
range and have tried various permutations including one cell, a range of cells,
selecting the cells, the UsedRange etc., but still no joy. I've also called the
sort method on different objects (for example, my macro does it via selection).
The one thing that particularly annoys me is that when I do the sort manually
the header defaults to xlGuess - if it did that through the code then I wouldn't
have the problem.

In the meantime I have implemented a workaround, whereby I create a new
worksheet, move the header there, sort the values without the header, then bring
it back and delete the extra worksheet. A bit Heath Robinson, but it gets there
in the end!

Cheers,
Chris

I'm trying to sort an Excel spreadsheet via the OLE Client. It works to some
degree, but I haven't been able to retain a header row. Methodology is as
follows:

	 # .sheet is the Active Sheet

	 _local l_cell << .sheet.Range ( "A2" )

	 l_cell.sort ( .sheet.columns ( "A" ),
			 :xlAscending,
			 _unset,
			 _unset,
			 _unset,
			 _unset,
			 _unset,
			 :xlYes )

The Excel help tells me that arguments for the 8th parameter (header) should be
one of :xlYes, :xlNo or :xlGuess. If I use any of these, the method errors:

**** Error: Automation Server error bad_usage for method sort(). Server error:

When we call map method of map service from client side,
an image is generated and stored in default folder. How can i refresh  Client
side image with this newly generated image??

Hi All,

Anybody have an idea how to incorporate upper case key in the accelerators? I
tried to add Shift + <key> in the message file but only works on actual
Shift+key when pressed not when capslock is On.

Is there any character qualifier to read uppercase and lower case differently in
message file?

btw i'm using 4.1 version.


Thanks in advance!

Vic

Thanks Fred.

Hi Glenn,

What if I don't want my text boxes to be black text on white background?

I'm sure there is a way to set colours on user-interface controls but if I ever
knew it I have forgotten. I have spent some time looking for likely properties
on the ui elements but to no avail.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks
Glenn

Hi Glenn,

I'm not sure anymore if and how it works but you can try the methods on
win32_message_mixin to send Windows message methods.

Bye,

Stefan
