CCL API vs POLAR API

Hi Anila,

CCL API/ Corporate API are the set of messages that follows Carnival guidelines. These are the message structures used by all the API  partners (like AMADEUS) and brands (like HAL) . To change these messages, we have to get approval from Carnival.

Princess used to use (continuing to use) certain messages before the introduction of CCL API. These are Polar API messages and doesn't follow corporate API standards. These messages are internal to Princess and does not affect other cruise lines or API partners.

Larry,

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks,

UTF-8 Encoding

Trying to diagnose problem with UTF-8 encoding on the batch jobs, previous notes from WebSphere are as follows:

In WebSphere we did this to make sure the application used UTF-8 encoding by default

CONFIGURING APPLICATION SERVERS FOR UCS TRANSFORMATION FORMAT, TO SUPPORT UTF-8 ENCODING

1. Click Servers, "Application servers"
1a. Click "server1" link
1b. Configuration tab, "Java and Process Management", "Process Definition"
1c. "Java Virtual Machine"

2. In section "Generic JVM arguments", enter the following parameter
"-Dclient.encoding.override=UTF-8 -Ddefault.client.encoding=UTF-8"

Thanks,

Getting the wrong jar out of Maven repository

From: Guillaume Radde [mailto:guillaume.radde@redhat.com]
Sent: Saturday, September 29, 2012 5:24 PM
To: Ruckman, Maurice (HAL)
Subject: Re: Nexus and Maven

If for some reason (and it rarely happens), you think you have a wrong jar in your local repository, you can rename the repository folder and maven will think it doesn't have a local repo and re-download everything:

$ mv /home/maurice/.m2/repository /home/maurice/.m2/disabled-repository
$ mvn install
-> maven will recreate the /home/maurice/.m2/repository folder with fresh content it will have to redownload
If you believe the shared Nexus repository contains an eronous jar, you can disable it in your settings.xml (see /home/maurice/.m2/settings.xml). You will have to fight with the proxy if you disable the shared Nexus repo on your VM as maven will try to connect directly to the internet.

Hope all is well

Setup Subversion (SVN) Server in Ubuntu 12.04

1. Install Subversion
sudo apt-get install subversion libapache2-svn apache2

2. Where you want to keep repository?
sudo mkdir /svn
sudo gedit /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/dav_svn.conf

Delete everything and make it this instead:

<Location /svn>
DAV svn
SVNParentPath /svn
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Subversion Repository"
AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/dav_svn.passwd
Require valid-user
</Location>

3. Create a user
sudo htpasswd -cm /etc/apache2/dav_svn.passwd username

4. Setup first repository
cd /svn
sudo svnadmin create test

5. Make sure you have all of the proper permissions for the repository
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /svn

6. Restart Apache service
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

7. You are now ready to use TortoiseSVN for Windows or RapidSVN for Linux

8. Your repository URL is http://localhost/svn/test
Note: It looks like RapidSVN does not like spaces in its file names.

Please see PDF for original notes.
