Dojo Deferred chaining - dojo

I am having trouble wrapping my head around how to make a Dojo Deferred work for the following scenario. Basically I have a function that is supposed to loop through a number of items and process each item separately in a deferred manner. It does the processing of each item in a separate method that returns a Deferred when it is done. I want to be able to execute the loop to go off and process each item and report back a success or failure when it is done. Here is what I got so far as a test sample:
http://jsfiddle.net/Ayyoudy/mgv6Y/12/
What am I doing wrong? I am expecting the output numbers to be in sequence but they are not.
I also want to be able to detect if there is an error processing one of the items and if so, not to process the rest.
Thanks

I have resolve that the output number should be in sequence. http://jsfiddle.net/granjoy/mgv6Y/17/
There're couple of issues in your code
loopping function should use closure to hold the variable.
You should use the validate returned Deferred now the process Deferred
Given that process() function will finished immediately, so the log "done processing everything!" will be first output.
Edit:
I have learn from the question. Thanks, the author gives another good solution. http://jsfiddle.net/Ayyoudy/mgv6Y/14

Run-State values within shape script EA

Enterprise Architect 13.5.
I made MDG technology extending Object metatype. I have a shape script for my stereotype working well. I need to print several predefined run-state parameters for element. Is it possible to access to run-state params within Shape ?
As Geert already commented there is no direct way to get the runstate variables from an object. You might send a feature request to Sparx. But I'm pretty sure you can't hold your breath long enough to see it in time (if at all).
So if you really need the runstate in the script the only way is to use an add-in. It's actually not too difficult to create one and Geert has a nice intro how to create it in 10 minutes. In your shape script you can print a string restult returned from an operation like
print("#addin:myAddIn,pFunc1#")
where myAddIn is the name of the registered operation and pFunc1 is a parameter you pass to it. In order to control the script flow you can use
hasproperty('addin:myAddIn,pFunc2','1')
which evaluates the returned string to match or not match the string 1.
I once got that to work with no too much hassle. But until now I never had the real need to use it somewhere in production. Know that the addin is called from the interpreted script for each shaped element on the diagram and might (dramatically) affect rendering times.

Pentaho/PDI: Increment a value automatically by one if a load-job (within a metajob) fails

in PDI I've got the following structure
0_Metajob
1_Load_1
1_Load_2
1_SimpleEvaluation
1_Mail
As of now
1_Load_1 and 1_Load_2 are independent of each other. The second one will run, irrespective of the success of the first one. That is okay, I want it that way!
Issue
I want to have a counter that is incremented by one every time one of the single loads fails, i.e. in my example the counter can take the values 0, 1 or 2.
What do I need it for? Customer will receive a mail at the end of the metajob. The aforementioned value determines the subject of the mail, i.e. 0=everything fine, 1=so-so, 2=load totally failed!
Why not mailing within every single the Load-Job? I do that but without attaching the log-file because it is usually non-finished. Therefore the log-file is mailed with the mail that is sent when the Metajob is finished.
Tried
"Set a variable". Thought I can simply increment it with adding a one in the value field, i.e. "${VariableName}+1". Of course, this step is implementened within a fail path of each Load-Job.
However, it didn't work.
Would anyone mind helping me? I would appreciate that!
Set Variable doesn't do calculations, you'll need a Javascript step for that.
Fortunately, variables can be also be set within the Javascript step. This bit of code should go into each of the steps you put in place of the Set Variable steps:
var i = parseInt(parent_job.getVariable("Counter"),0);
i = i + 1;
parent_job.setVariable("Counter",i);
true;
This bit of code gets the variable "Counter" from the parent job and converts it to int, since all Pentaho variables are strings. Then it increments it and sets the job variable again. The "true" at the end is to ensure that the javascript step reports success to the main job.
IMPORTANT: This works roughly as you would expect in a Job. It will NOT in a transformation!

Passing responses from one PsychoPy routine to another

I am trying to send the value of a response time (e.g. key_resp_2.rt) to a later routine.
I am new to PsychoPy and am unsure how to do this. I have been unsuccessful searching Google for an answer...
A later routine can refer to previous variable by name in a Code component. i.e. in that code component, you could insert code like this, say to update a text stimulus depending on a previous reaction time:
if key_resp_2.rt < 0.200:
myTextStim.setText("Well done, quite fast.")
But you would need to specify what you want to do to get more specific help.
Cheers.

VBA Overflow Error 6 -- simply when terminating a class

I am trying to debug code that typically functions properly and has been in production for a while, but has some errors associated with particular case runs.
I have a class called "Guarantee", and a variable / object, "myDem", which is of that class. The class has an associated function called "NumberOfGuaranteeDays". The first image given below shows a Long variable called "numRows" being assigned to this function call on "myDem". When this assigment is made -- and, therefore, the "NumberOfGuaranteeDays" function is called -- I receive an Overflow error.
After the function call "NumberOfGuaranteeDays" is run, which is a fairly complex call with many sub-functions itself, then class attempts to terminate itself, and return the value (the number of days, which is an integer... in this case it's 32561). It is during this termination step and the assignment of "numRows" to the value 32561, when the error occurs.
Here I simply demonstrate that the very next step within the code, if I step through it, is where the error message is returned back to me.
Finally I wanted to provide "proof" that the value assigned to "numRows" is 32561, of type Integer, which can acceptably be assigned to a Long. Note in the far right in the watch part of the window, the value "res" is the value which is returned from the "NumberOfGuaranteeDays" call, which is then assigned to the variable "numRows".
As far as I can tell, there are only 2 possibilities for why a crash can be occurring:
There is an error in the attempt to terminate the class. I don't understand how this could lead to an "overflow" error, though.
There is an error in the assignment of the value calculated from "NumberOfGuaranteeDays" to the variable "numRows". This sort of assignment could potentially have an overflow, but not in this case. The return from "NumberOfGuaranteeDays", which is the "res" integer set at 32561, is assigned to "numRows", which is a Long.
So, since neither of these possibilities that I can imagine make sense, I figure there must be another possibility I cannot see. Thank you all in advance for the help!
I opted to put in cut & pasted images instead of writing as code because so much of what's critical to understanding the steps is seeing "proof" of where I am in the debugging stages. If actual code snippets would help, let me know.
Thank you!

Linux Kernel Process Management

First, i admit all the things i will ask are about our homework but i assure you i am not asking without struggling at least two hours.
Description: We are supposed to add a field called max_cpu_percent to task_struct data type and manipulate process scheduling algorithm so that processes can not use an higher percentage of the cpu.
for example if i set max_cpu_percent field as 20 for the process firefox, firefox will not be able to use more than 20% of the cpu.
We wrote a system call to set max_cpu_percent field. Now we need to see if the system call works or not but we could not get the value of the max_cpu_percent field from a user-spaced program.
Can we do this? and how?
We tried proc/pid/ etc can we get the value using this util?
By the way, We may add additional questions here if we could not get rid of something else
Thanks All
Solution:
The reason was we did not modify the code block writing the output to the proc queries.
There are some methods in array.c file (fs/proc/array.c) we modified the function so that also print the newly added fields value. kernel is now compiling we'll see the result after about an hour =)
It Worked...
(If you simply extended getrlimit/setrlimit, then you'd be done by now…)
There's already a mechanism where similar parts of task_struct are exposed: /proc/$PID/stat (and /proc/$PID/$TID/stat). Look for functions proc_tgid_stat and proc_tid_stat. You can add new fields to the ends of these files.
