Recital is a dynamic programming language with an embedded high performance database engine particularly well suited for the development and deployment of high transaction throughput applications.
The Recital database engine is not a standalone process with which the application program communicates. Instead, the Recital database is an integral part of any applications developed in Recital.
Recital implements most of the SQL-99 standard for SQL, but also provides lower level navigational data access for performing high transaction throughput. It is the choice of the application developer whether to use SQL, navigational data access, or a combination of both depending upon the type of application being developed.
The Recital database engine, although operating as an embedded database in the user process, multiple users and other background processes may access the same data concurrently. Read accesses are satisfied in parallel. Recital uses automatic record level locking when performing database updates. This provides for a high degree of database concurrency and superior application performance and differentiates the Recital database from other embeddable databases such as sqlite that locks the entire database file during writing.
Key features of the Recital scripting language include:
- High performance database application scripting language
- Modern object-oriented language features
- Easy to learn, easy to use
- Fast, just-in-time compiled
- Loosely-typed
- Garbage collected
- Static arrays, Associative arrays and objects
- Develop desktop or web applications
- Cross-platform support
- Extensive built-in functions
- Superb built-in SQL command integration
- Navigational data access for the most demanding applications
- Scripting language is upward compatible with FoxPRO
Key features of the Recital database include:
- A broad subset of ANSI SQL 99, as well as extensions
- Cross-platform support
- Stored procedures
- Triggers
- Cursors
- Updatable Views
- System Tables
- Query caching
- Sub-SELECTs (i.e. nested SELECTs)
- Embedded database library
- Fault tolerant clustering support
- Chronological data versioning with database timelines
- Optional DES3 encrypted data
- Hot backup
- Client drivers for ODBC, JDBC and .NET
I am a fan of the previous incarnation of the PlugComputer so I was excited to see that Marvell have unveiled a new PlugComputer dubbed imaginatively "PlugComputer 3.0."
PlugComputer 3.0 Features:
Smaller sleeker design,
More powerful CPU - 2gz Armanda 300 CPU,
120GB 1.8-inch SATA hard drive,
Wifi,
Bluetooth,
10/100/1000 wired Ethernet,
USB 2.0.
512MB of RAM
512MB of Flash memory
I for one would like to see an additional Ethernet port added to increase application flexibility, for some applications where you are using clustered plugs or even for routing, having multiple Ethernet ports is a must.
Even without multiple ethernet ports, these low power consumption devices really could have a place in SME environments, replacing large cumbersome legacy hardware with compact Linux plug servers.

In Adobe's own words:"Adobe® AIR® is a cross-operating system runtime that lets developers combine HTML, Ajax, Adobe Flash®, and Adobe Flex® technologies to deploy rich Internet applications (RIAs) on the desktop."
The outcome of this combination of technologies is that developers can design and render quite beautiful user interfaces cross platform. For us desktop Linux users it is nice to have
an additional avenue for obtaining and running attractive desktop applications.Examples of great Adobe air applications are Adobe.com for My Desktop, TweetDeck and the Times Reader. You can download these applications and many more at the Adobe Marketplace.
The easiest way to install Adobe Air on Fedora 12 is to download the latest build from Adobe, click here.
Once you have downloaded the .bin file do the following at the shell:
su - chmod +x AdobeAIRInstaller.bin ./AdobeAIRInstaller.binOnce you have Air installed, there is a slight tweak you will have to do to get it running on Fedora 12, it is related to the security certificates. This can be remedied in one simple line at the shell prompt as root.
su - for c in /etc/opt/Adobe/certificates/crypt/*.0; do aucm -n $(basename $c) -t true; doneWhat this line is doing is using the aucm which is the Adobe Unix certificate manager to set the certificates installed as trusted.
You will now be able to go to the Adobe Marketplace and download and run Air applications without any issues.
Enjoy!
On entry to the .rsp page.
IF type( _session["state"] ) != "U"m_state = _session["state"]RESTORE DATASESSION FROM m_state
ELSE
// open up your tables for the first timeENDIF
SAVE DATASESSION TO m_state_SESSION["state"] = m_state
System Requirements:
- Minimum memory: 4MB
- Minimum Diskspace: ~20MB
Specifying this seems to reslove the problem:
-Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m
Occasionally as a Linux administrator you will be in the situation where working on a remote server and you are left with no option but to force a reboot the system. This may be for a number of reasons, but where I have found it most frequent is when working on Linux clusters in a remote location.
When the "reboot" or "shutdown" commands are executed daemons are gracefully stopped and storage volumes unmounted.
This is usually accomplished via scripts in the /etc/init.d directory which will wait for each daemon to shut down gracefully before proceeding on to the next one. This is where a situation can develop where your Linux server fails to shutdown cleanly leaving you unable to administer the system until it is inspected locally. This is obviously not ideal so the answer is to force a reboot on the system where you can guarantee that the system will power cycle and come back up. The method will not unmount file systems nor sync delayed disk writes, so use this at your own discretion.
To force the kernel to reboot the system we will be making use of the magic SysRq key.
The magic_SysRq_key provides a means to send low level instructions directly to the kernel via the /proc virtual file system.
To enable the use of the magic SysRq option type the following at the command prompt:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq
Then to reboot the machine simply enter the following:
echo b > /proc/sysrq-trigger
Voilà! Your system will instantly reboot.
