Can anyone help me with that? Sorry for not being specific, but that is what I must do. I have no idea about how can i do that, is there a way to reassign keys directly from TurboPascal?
You can try to replace the int $05 handler with an empty one as suggested by #500 - Internal Server Error.

Somebody gave me a testing program to write records into the windows event log (but I don't have the sources). I understand the general way of writing and reviewing event log, but that program behaves very special in a way that I can write records, that have a source which does not exist.
There is not even a registry entry in .../eventlog/application, hence no formatting libs.
If I try that from my own code, I can write such a record but the Windows Event Viewer then always tells me something about "description cannot be found" (which is correct and I understand why that happens).
The question is now: Since that foreign test prog CAN do it, it must be possible somehow - but HOW?
Many thx!! :-)
OK, finally I found it (also, got the sources) - the prog creates the registry entry (probably happens when calling CreateEventSource()), it was just not visible until refreshing regedit :-|
And, it DOES register a formatting lib, only that it is something I cannot rely on: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\EventLogMessages.dll
Or, can I?
Ah, here we go for an explanation:
Difference between EventLog.WriteEntry and EventLog.WriteEvent methods
So, I cannot, as I'm not using .Net ... :-|
Now, if I NOW send another event from MY prog (with the same, newly created source, as the foreign prog), I see it in the event viewer normally.
That means, WriteEntry() actually does not write a different/special type of evt log record containing the text directly (contrary to the standard method of writing just a msg catalog ID + params) but rather there must be some trick in the formatting lib to make the EventViewer apply some kind of "default" formatting.
Any ideas how I could accomplish this? Except just copying the EventLogMessages.dll above? :-)
OK, finally found an answer about this one in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc163446.aspx
"This file is called EventLogMessages.dll, and it contains 65,536 event descriptions, each of which consists of the string "%1", a placeholder for whatever string you want to write"
I was hoping for something like "messageid=*" but that seems to be too simple :-|
But maybe somebody else is interested in whats happening here ...
I'm looking for a way to quickly edit and view my extension credential list (I use nsIPrefBranch to store it).
Is there any easy way to do that? I tried to look where that's stored but couldnt find it.
Many thanks!!
Got it,
It's inside %appdata%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles{ID}\prefs.js
I love the code completion in Xcode, it saves me a lot of typing work. Also, it confirms my code is probably error-free in real time. However, to me, some code suggestions are disturbing. For example, when I type else after an if-statement, Xcode suggests this:
else {
statement
}
I'd like to change this to just:
else
statement
Because, I quite often just want to use one line of code there, and adding curled brackets goes much faster than removing them. The other annoying thing is the fact that using such a suggestion takes the return key, while a new line does as well. So, if I would want to use my preferred way as shown above, I would first have to press the escape key in order to stop Xcode suggesting it, and then press the return key. Not a real pain, but I think it's unnecessary.
There are some other code suggestions which I would like to change, but I think I have made my point already. Is there a way to change these code suggestions? I know Apple doesn't provide an easy way within Xcode itself, but I'm willing to dive into the finder for the file with suggestions and change it manually. Thanks!
in your example, it would work to add a space after typing else. Doing that removes the brace suggestion and you can just hit enter.
I'm relatively new to Watir but can find no good documentation (examples) regarding how to check if an element exists. There are the API specs, of course, but these make precious little sense to me if I don't find an example.
I've tried both combinations but nothing seems to work...
if browser.image (:src "/media/images/icons/reviewertools/editreview.jpg").exists
then...
if browser.image (:src "/media/images/icons/reviewertools/editreview.jpg").exists?
then...
If anyone has a concrete suggestion as per how to implement this, please help! Thanks!
It seems you are missing a comma between parameters.
Should be
if browser.image(:src, "/media/images/icons/reviewertools/editreview.jpg").exists?
Also you can find this page useful in future to know what attributes are supported.
The code you posted should work just fine.
Edit: Oops, wrong. As Katmoon pointed out, there is a missing comma.
browser.image(:src "/media/images/icons/reviewertools/editreview.jpg").exists?
One problem you may get caught up in is if the browser variable you specified is actually an element that doesn't exist.
e.g.
b = Watir::IE.start(ipAddress)
b.frame(:name, "doesntExist).image(:src "/media/images/icons/reviewertools/editreview.jpg").exists?
The above code will throw a Watir::UnknownFrameException. You can get around this by first verifying the frame exists or by surrounding the code in a begin/rescue block.
Seems like you are using it correctly. Here is an old RDoc of Watir.
Does it not work because Watir cannot find it? Hard to tell because there is no source or link to the page that is being tested. I think that I only use image.exists?. In general, errors that come from when the image exists but is not found are:
The how is not compatible with the element type. There is a cheatsheet to help you see which object types can be found with different attributes here.
The what is not correct. You may have to play with that a little bit. Consider trying a regex string to match it such as browser.image(:src, /editreview.jpg/). As a last resort, maybe use element_by_xpath, but there are maintenance costs with that.
The location is not correct. Maybe the element is in a frame or something like that. browser.frame("detail").image(:src, /editreview.jpg/).
Try those, but please let me know what worked. One more thing, what are you checking for? If it's part of the test criteria, you can handle it that way. If you need to click on it, then forget the .exists? and just click on it. Ruby will let you know if it's not there. If you need it to be grace, learn about begin/rescue.
Good luck,
Dave
Edit: Turns out, I was misled during my initial explorations of the accessibility APIs. Once I found the secure text field in the AX hierarchy, I was easily able to set the value. Not sure what to do with this question beyond that, but I wanted to update this for future searchers.
I'm working on some code that will post keyboard events to targeted applications using the Accessibility APIs. So far, I have been able to write a trivial app that allows me to type in a string value and then post keyboard events with those key codes to the targeted application. In reality, the strings would be read from another location.
What I have not yet been able to figure out is how to ascertain whether and which modifier keys should also be posted. For instance, when I type Hello, world! into my test application, the input is sent to the other application as hello, world1 because I am not yet including the modifier keys to create the upper case H and the exclamation point. This is made doubly complicated by multi-keystroke characters like é or ü. Sending é sends a raw e with no accent for example.
Is there a simple method I am overlooking for discerning the modifiers to combine with a keycode for creating a particular NSString or unichar? If not, does anyone have a suggestion of how to proceed? So far, the best I have come up with is calling UCKeyTranslate with all possible modifier combinations until I find one that matches the unichar I get using -[NSString characterAtIndex:] I'm not sure this is scalable or reliable, though, given the multi-keystroke nature of some characters as noted above.
Thanks in advance!
This probably won't help. But just in case: Is it really necessary to send keyboard events? Because that is going to get really difficult if you need to support, say, Kotoeri.
It's a simple matter to override insertText: and doCommandBySelector: and send the results of the key sequence, rather than the individual keystrokes.
I have found a example which does the trick but it's incomplete:It will not be a general solution in any case ...how can this handle multiple keyboard layouts ?
There is an cgquartz obsolete function to do so: CGPostKeyboardEvent (not sure it's possible to pass only the char?) may be can still be used (marked undocumented with some side effect to but .. ).
EDIT: UCKeyTranslate as a way to build a dictionary. Interesting but how the OS do this? A better answer should be hidden somewhere !
