Some inputs to you based on my experience with windows 7. This blog will keep on updating with the feature/tips about Windows 7, so you can keep looking for some tips from here.

1. Bluetooth device, not able to connect to windows 7: If you have some problem with connecting any bluetooth device with Windows 7 , check whether your Windows 7 – Startup folder ( Startup folder can be found @ your Windows7 – Start program list)  has the shortcut to BTTray.exe. If not, add a shortcut to ”C:\Program Files\WIDCOMM\Bluetooth Software\BTTray.exe”. This need to executed during your Windows 7 startup.



2. Cannot find Recycle Bin @ Desktop: To add a shortcut to Recycle Bin @ your windows 7 desktop,  right click Desktop, select Personalize ( or you can select Personalization from the location   Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Personalization ).  From the left side bar select the “Change desktop icons” and select the Recycle Bin check box :









3.Add/Remove the “Dell Dock” drop down from startup: You might have noticed the Dell Dock feature of Windows 7. Please find below the screen shot:



To remove this drop down list of applications from the Desktop, you can kill the DellDock.exe from the Task Manager process list. To remove it from startup, remove the DellDock shortcut from the Startup folder which has a link to the application ”C:\Program Files\Dell\DellDock\DellDock.exe”

ATG - more about Forms and Form Handlers

An ATG form is defined by the dsp:form tag, which typically encloses DSP tags that specify form elements, such as dsp:input that provide direct access to Nucleus component properties. Find below a sample dsp:form tag.    <dsp:form action="/testPages/showPersonProperties.jsp" method="post" target="_top">      <p>Name: <dsp:input bean="/samples/Person.name" type="text"/>      <p>Age: <dsp:input bean="/samples/Person.age" type="text" value="30"/>      <p><dsp:input type="submit" bean="/samples/Person.submit"/> value="Click to submit"/>    </dsp:form>   When the user submits the form, the /samples/Person.name property is set to the value entered in the input field.Unlike standard HTML, which requires the name attribute for most input tags; the name attribute is optional for DSP form element tags.

ATG Search architectural flow : Search and Index

I would like to explain the high level ATG Search implementation architecture ( for an online store) through the above diagram. In this diagram 1.x denotes the search functionality and 2.x denotes the indexing functionality. I have given JBoss as the application server. Physical Boxes and Application Servers in the diagram ( as recommended by ATG )  : Estore ( Commerce ) Box --> The box with the estore/site ear (with the site JSPs and Java codes). Search Engine Box --> The box with the search engine application running. Indexing Engine Box --> The box with the indexing engine application running. CA (Content Administration) Box --> The box with the ATG CA ear ( where we could take CA -BCC - Search Administration and configure the search projects) . Search Indexer Box --> The box with the ATG Search Index ear ( to fetch the index data from repository). Note that the engine performing indexing will need access ...

ATG - quick reference to commonly used DSP Tags

In this blog, I would like to give a quick reference to the most commonly used DSP Tags.Note that in this DSP tag details : bean refers to a Nucleus path, component name, and property name param refers to a Page parameter value refers to a Static-value var refers to a EL variable id refers to a scripting variable ============================================================== 1.dsp:importbean     example: <dsp:importbean bean="/atg/dynamo/droplet/Switch"/> ============================================================== 2.dsp:page     usage: It encloses a JSP. The dsp:page invokes the JSP handler, which calls the servlet pipeline and generates HTTPServletRequest.    example:    <dsp:page> ..... </dsp:page> ============================================================== 3.dsp:include     usage: Embeds a page fragment in a JSP.     example:   <dsp:include src="/myPage/Result...
