Is there an online reference manual I can query which contains details of LoadRunner functions such as:
lr_start_transaction
web_url
web_submit_data
web_custom_request
lr_end_transaction
etc.?
Essentially, I want to be able to find out about these functions without having the LoadRunner environment licenced/installed.
There doesn't seem to be a web-based function reference but a ZIP file of Windows HTMLHelp (.CFM) files (the LoadRunner 9.10 VuGen API Reference) can be downloaded from here:
I found this by searching the HP Software Product Manuals with the following details (requires free registration):
Product: LoadRunner
Product version: 9.10
Operating system: Windows
I tried version 9.50 as well but it did not provide a link...
One gotcha: once I had the .CFM on my machine I had to 'Unblock' them via the Properties dialog otherwise I got the 'This program cannot display the webpage' message within HTMLHelp.
Every copy of LoadRunner ships with a soft copy of the manuals.
The official reference would be at Help >> Fuction Reference in HP Loadrunner:
You can do "quick searching" by clicking on the index:
The reference is actually made up of html files (located at HP\Loadrunner\help\function_reference\FuncRef.htm), so they can be viewed directly in any browser.
(Btw, there are many useful gems within the Loadrunner\help folder too, especially the PDFs tutorials.)

I want to create a onenote book which I then share with a load of students. Using a cool little tool MS have produced, it will create sections for each student which they can access so they can READ my bits and EDIT their own but NOT see each others - I can read and edit all. Fab.
But their pages are blank. I want to be able to hit a button/macro/script/whatever to copy a select page from my section in to each of the other sections. Without using VS preferably.
Any ideas?
This tool that OneNote just released should make it doable, if you use the Win32 version of OneNote:

I work with an Excel add-in called SAP BEx Analyzer (BExAnalyzer.xla).
Unfortunately, the documentation of this add-in seems very incomplete and it's a pain to work with it.
I would like to know if there is a way to inspect such an add-in to see what objects/methods/function and so on it contains?
Many thanks!
In the current release of SAP Business Explorer (based on 7.30), the BExAnalyzer.xla file is unprotected so you are able to inspect it.
If you wish to delve deeper in to the BEx object model, it is worth adding a reference in your VBA Project to the two type libraries (BExAddin.tlb and BExApi.tlb) in the Business Explorer installation folder (usually located in \Program Files (x86)\SAP\Business Explorer\BI\).
I'm actually in the exact same boat with BEx. I haven't found any official documentation but a hefty amount of google fu gets me by. I've also had some luck pressing F2 in the code window when you have the SAPBEX.xla module selected and then picking the SAPBEX library in the first drop down. It will give you all the methods/functions/constants in the library which isn't documented well at all either but you can make some educated guesses and trial and error...if you have the spare time.
I wanted to download Linux kernel module source code from http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/net/bluetooth/. Is there any tool like SVN to download the source code generated by LXR engine?
Thanks in advance!
If you're still looking for an answer, here is a procedure based on a low documented feature of LXR.
Display the file you are interested in
Modify the URL in the browser address bar, adding at the end ?_raw=1 and go there (i.e. press return key)
The file is then displayed "as is", without any decoration (it is sent as text/plain)
You can now save the file from browser menu command File->Save as
NOTES:
The ?_raw=1 argument can be used to have HTML files interpreted by your browser, i.e. displayed as HTML because they will be sent as text/html.
The feature has been present in LXR for ages, though in versions older than 0.10 the argument is spelled ?raw=1 (without underscore).
I checked that ?raw=1 works with free-electrons though they use 0.3.1 which was released in 2003!
The documentation on lxr states that there is a git repo.
http://lxr.linux.no/
I have never tried it, but it may be what you are looking for
Not exactly an answer, but I was looking for a related thing - the possibility to download individual C files from LXR as plain text. If it was possible to download files as text, in principle you could write some sort of a parser/automatic downloader for a whole directory.
The documentation for the LXR engine seems to be here:
LXR Cross Referencer - Browse /doc at SourceForge.net
... and as far as I could see from the 1.0 PDF manual (note that lxr.free-electrons.com seems to run on version 0.3.1, though), there is no mention of plain-text source files being exported (in addition) to the HTML.
So, very likely, as the plain-text source files seem not to be available in an LXR export, there will be no tool that will be able to download. (Btw, I too wish there was a tool like this, otherwise the only option is to clone the entire Linux source tree via git).
Note, however, that there is also an experimental version of LXR from lxr.linux.no ; that one generates HTML that requires JavaScript, and it will show a "download" button in its interface; then one can download the plain-text source file. As lxr.linux.no is down for me for the moment, here's a link to an annotated HTML page to another site, that seems to use the same engine (there is no note ATM for the LXR engine numeric version):
http://lxr.missinglinkelectronics.com/#linux+v2.6.38/sound/drivers/dummy.c
... and this is how the link looks like to obtain plain-text version:
http://lxr.missinglinkelectronics.com/linux+v2.6.38/+save=sound/drivers/dummy.c
Note that this is a different URL format than what lxr.free-electrons.com would use:
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/sound/drivers/dummy.c?v=2.6.38
... and there is a note on the start page ( http://lxr.missinglinkelectronics.com/ )
once you enable JavaScript, which states that:
lxr.missinglinkelectronics.com is currently running an experimental fork of the LXR software provided by lxr.linux.no.
... or, in other words: the link format for downloading plain-text source files from lxr.linux.no, will not work for the (current) lxr.free-electrons.com installation.
Here you can browse the references and also can download the source file
https://code-grep.com/view/project/54b083273b2082684a000008/linux-3.19-rc2
On free-electrons.com, it works by adding the argument "raw=1" in the URL. For example, this URL...
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/misc/lis3lv02d/lis3lv02d.c?v=3.8
... will become this :
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/misc/lis3lv02d/lis3lv02d.c?v=3.8&raw=1
The resulting page can then be saved using the "file saving" feature of your browser. On Linux and Windows, this is usually mapped to the ctrl+s keyboard shortcut.
I'm currently using Microsoft Visual Studio 2010.
If we say that we give 10 different people a copy of MSVC 10 and a short C++ Hello, World listing. They all create a new project using exactly the same settings, add a new cpp file with the Hello, World program and compile it.
Do they all get the exactly same binary?
If not, what are the exact differences?
What information about my system does MSVC add to my executeable?
Paranoia!
If you each create a project from scratch you'll at least get different GUIDs assuming it's the type of project that needs GUIDs. The GUID is set at the time you create the project so if one of you creates the project and then you share the project there will be no difference in the binaries. There is no identifiable info in the GUIDs AFAIK.
Just can't help to respond even though the question is more than a year old.
Apart from what was already mentioned (source paths & guid), there is also a structure present in most Portable Executable file known as the Rich Header.
More detailed info can be found at the following links:
http://ntcore.com/files/richsign.htm
http://web17.webbpro.de/index.php?page=microsofts-rich-header
As far as I know you would get the exact same binary...
I was wondering if there is any way to figure out programatically if Microsoft Word (Word 2003) exists on the target PC. Creating this app on VS2005, C++.
Thanks
You could create a new Word.Application COM object and read the Version property. Unfortunately that would take a few seconds until Word is loaded. (That is if it is installed)
If you cannot create the object, then Word is not installed. If it can be created and has a lower version number, only an old version is available.
Looping over the registry keys is an option e.g: all entries under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office and see what the most recent version is. Depends on your performance and exact requirements.
The easiest way is probably to check the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office registry keys.
Under this tree there is a node for every version of Office, and under each version the installed projects have their own sub-key (Excel, Outlook, Word etc) that specifies the path it was installed to.
Note there may be multiple versions installed on a single PC. E.g. I have;
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\9.0
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\11.0
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\12.0
