c# - iTextSharp - XFA fill date/time field -

-

the workflow this:

  1. we download template form, prefill values static, export xml template
  2. the xml parsed .net forms app, dynamic values added
  3. the resulting xml needs imported pdf template

all goes using mergexfadata method on itextsharp, reason, date/time fields not being filled in (textfields , checkboxes work ok). cannot figure out why. searching through forums discovered saying xfa works textfields. why , how work around?

also next step need attach attachment pdf form. attachments pdf itextsharp not attach them. have searched many forums none of mentioned methods works me.

thank answers

@yuri, tried date/time field , worked perfectly. create simple pdf in live cycle 2 fields, 1 text , 1 date/time, , 2 buttons, submit , print. sample pdf here:

i filled out form , got xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <topmostsubform>     <text1>chris</text1>     <datetimefield1>2012-04-12</datetimefield1> </topmostsubform>

when imported pdf , viewed pdf in acrobat date/time field filled out. i'm using itextsharp 5.0.5.0 following code:

option explicit on option strict on  imports itextsharp.text imports itextsharp.text.pdf imports system.io  public class form1      private sub form1_load(byval sender system.object, byval e system.eventargs) handles mybase.load         dim pdf_input_file string = path.combine(my.computer.filesystem.specialdirectories.desktop, "input.pdf")         dim pdf_output_file string = path.combine(my.computer.filesystem.specialdirectories.desktop, "export.pdf")          ''//create our reader         dim reader new pdfreader(pdf_input_file)         ''//create our file stream output         using fs new system.io.filestream(pdf_output_file, filemode.create, fileaccess.write, fileshare.read)             ''//create stamper             dim stamper new pdfstamper(reader, fs)              ''//just loading xml raw instead of reading disk, less files attach post             dim bytes = system.text.encoding.utf8.getbytes("<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""utf-8""?><topmostsubform><text1>chris</text1><datetimefield1>2012-04-12</datetimefield1></topmostsubform>")             using ms new memorystream(bytes)                 ''//fill out form                 stamper.acrofields.xfa.fillxfaform(ms)             end using              stamper.close()         end using          reader.close()           me.close()     end sub end class

php - What is the difference between $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] and $_SERVER['ORIG_PATH_INFO']? -

-
what’s difference between $_server['path_info'] , $_server['orig_path_info'] ? how use them? when run print_r($_server) , path_info , orig_path_info not present in array. why not? how can enable them? i have read php manual on them, still don’t understand them. the path_info variable present if invoke php script this: http://www.example.com/phpinfo.php/hello_there it's /hello_there part after .php script. if don't invoke url that, there won't $_server["path_info"] environment variable. the porig_ prefix uncommon. path_info standard cgi-environment variable, , should never prefixed. did read that? (there issues around php3/php4 if invoked php interpreter via cgi-bin/ - hardly has such setups today.) for reference: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3875

fortran - Function return type mismatch -

i'm attempting recode old c++ program in fortran make use of lapack (i'm aware c++ have lapack++, i'm having lot of trouble installing it, gave up). i didn't have problems compilation, when had variables declared real . when started coding section of program required lapack, found parameters passed dsyev need double precision . tried change double precision (including changing hard coded numbers double precision counterparts, i.e. 0.0 -> 0.0d0) when try compile, following error of functions , subroutines i've written: error: return type mismatch of function <function> @ (1) (real(4)/real(8)) i'm not sure coming from, in program has been changed double precision. for example, i've declared following: double precision :: alpha(3),d(3),zeta1,zeta2 double precision :: a1(3),a2(3),d1(3),d2(3) double precision :: pi pi = 3.14159265359d0 alpha = (/0.109818d0, 0.405771d0, 2.22766d0/) d = (/0.444635d0, 0.535328d0, 0.154329d0 /) 10 i=1,3 ...

queue - mq_receive: message too long -

-
i implementing communication between 2 processes using queue. problem when call function mq_receive, error: message long. i have done following: struct mq_attr attr; long size = attr.mq_msgsize; .... // initializing queue "/gateway" int rc = mq_receive(gateway, buffer, size, &prio); if print size value, size=1, while when print same size program (got same mechanism), not long integer ( -1217186280 )... how can solve error?....so while size = 1, believe it's right "message long" why 1? p.s. have tried put : int rc = mq_receive(gateway, buffer, sizeof(buffer), &prio); but no result. it seems need read docs more carefully. when call mq_receive should pass size of destination buffer. this size must greater mq_msgsize attribute of queue . in addition, seems have error in queue attributes initialisation makes proper mq_receive call impossible. here standard message queue session: fill mq_attr struct ( doc ): struct mq_a...
