 - List helpHi,
 I am new to Java.
 I've been working on this project for some time now and I cannot get it
 to work.
 This is supposed to be a linked list.
 I need to use an insert method that alphabetically adds a new title to
 the list. This code I have here doesn't have a working compareTo method
 but only a test to add node to the list.
 
 This code was provided to me and I must add an insert that will put a new
 item in alphabetically order. Don't tell me the answer - I just don't
 understand why this doesn't work. I hope that what I've written here is
 clear.
 
 Thanks
 John
 
 Main looks like this something like this:
 
 main(String [] args){
 
 BookList book = new BookList();
 book.add (new Book ("title of book"));
 }
 
 // ----------------Test compareTo
 public int compareTo(Node a, Node b){
 // Since I couldn't get this to work either, I test to see if I can get
 any value.
 
 println(a.book.compareTo(b.book)); // doesn't work I don't know how to
 compare the titles
 return 0;
 }
 
 public class BookList
 {
 private BookNode head;
 
 //----------------------------------------------------------------
 // Sets up an initially empty list of books.
 //----------------------------------------------------------------
 BookList()
 {
 head = null;
 }
 
 //----------------------------------------------------------------
 // Creates a new Book object and adds it to the end of
 // the linked list.
 //----------------------------------------------------------------
 public void insert (Book newBook){
 
 BookNode node = new BookNode (newBook);
 BookNode current;
 BookNode prev;
 
 if (head == null)
 head = node;
 else
 {
 current = head;
 
 while (current.next != null){
 
 // Orignally this method looped through the whole list until it found the
 end, then add the new
 // to the bottom.
 // I did a test here to see if I could move the list around.
 // This is what I think should happen: save current in prev. get next with
 current.
 // try to put node in from of current.next. It seems no matter what I try
 there's a null pointer
 // error. I just can't figure this out.
 
 prev = current;
 current = current.next;
 
 node.prev = current.prev;
 node.next = current;
 node.prev.next = node;
 current.prev = node;
 
 }
 current.next = node;
 }
 }
 
 //*****************************************************************

 - Opportunities in U.K./Great Britain?I have a friend who recently moved to Madrid. He had a Dutch passport
 so EU access was relatively easy for him. We both lived in D.C., but
 I remain US citizen by birth.
 
 My question is, he says it's becoming more popular for J2EE
 development in Great
 Britain and the UK. I'm wondering how good is the market? (in
 relation to US) How good is it for US programmers? (any demand for US
 borne skills) And if any of these are true, how hard it is securing
 work permit? (etc) Finally is there any idea what standard of living
 might be like?
 
 Given all of this would there be sacrifices, or would it just be
 better overall simply to stay in US?

 - writing java daemon server: start and stopDear everyone,
 
 I am trying to write a server program to do some monitoring.
 I am using Windows 2000 platform.
 I've seen that there is some server program can start server by
 specifying command like "server start" and stop it like "server stop".
 
 I am wondering how to do it in java language since java is running in
 the JVM.
 1. Is it prossible to send signal to kill the process just like c lang
 ?
 2. Do java have process ?
 3. How about if java thread can be killed by those deprecated method
 like thread.stop(), can I find the current running thread and stop it
 ?
 4. Any suggested method to do the server stop which can stop the
 current running java program in JVM ?
 
 Thank you for helping

 - want to sort tables inside a complex mechanism, what can be the approach?I have a situation where first we are fecthing some ids(list of say
 version ids using hibernate form database)
 then keeping those list of data in a Pager Object(Paging mechanism
 displays 100 rows per page out of complete sa 100 or so.)
 This pager class does two things one takes whole list of ids
 (Collection of version_id).
 (Every time based on search criteria it changes. For searching in
 hibernate values are hardcoded. Want modification with minimal changes
 as many things are interrelated here.)
 and other thing it checks no. of contents based on that displays data
 per page(100 here).
 It means stores all data from database and send it oage by page.(First
 thing to notice)
 
 Next all this is getting stored in Report page where it searches other
 column names based on ids(version_id) the other column names are
 getting changed for different requests so what we do is take all other
 columns collectAllExtraFields(this is also getting changed everytime
 based on what is getting searched.)
 Now all this is getting accumulated while displaying but as we know
 what to display we hardcoded all fields required to display based on
 search. But all fields are searched based on the id fetched from
 database first time which Pages is storing.
 like this
 
 Search for product user information & retrun results in the form of a
 paged table for components used by specific product
 
 ComponentVersion versionObj =
 versionHandler.getComponentVersion(versionId);
 String CAUsers = ctHelp.getCAUsersSection(versionId);
 tableBody = tableBody + ((i%2 == 0) ? "<tr
 class='table_banded_row' valign='top'>" : "<tr class='table_row'
 valign='top'>");
 tableBody = tableBody + "<td class='table_data'>" +
 procHelper.getCompVersionLink(versionId,
 versionObj.getCompName(), versionObj.getCompVersion()) + "</td>";
 tableBody = tableBody + "<td class='table_data'>" +
 CAUsers + "</td>";
 tableBody = tableBody + "<td class='table_data'>" +
 versionObj.getComponent().getType() + "</td>";
 tableBody = tableBody + "<td class='table_data'>" +
 versionObj.getComponent().getVendor() + "</td>";
 tableBody = tableBody + "<td class='table_data'>" +
 versionObj.getRecommendationType() + "</td>";
 tableBody = tableBody + "</tr>";
 
 /** Get ComponentVersion ID with hyperlink to ComponentVersion Detail
 page
 */
 public String getCompVersionLink(long versionId, String compName,
 String compVersion){
 return "<a class='datalink' title='" +
 this.getComponentFlyOverText(versionId) + "'
 href='/techstacks-v2_1/content/components/componentDetail.jsp?versionId="
 + versionId + "'>" + compName + " " + compVersion + "</a>";
 }
 
 this is getting called by Report.jsp to display.
 As this is getting changed everytime its called form classes not used
 in jsp directly i think.
 
 Now original objective is to sort all these displayed columns.
 If user clicks on any of the column name everything sholud get sorted
 on that basis.but sholud not call databse for same again by using same
 id and mapping with any new column name this sholud be done. Paging
 mechinasm to be used as it is if possible without major changes.
 
 i don't know where to start with as started looking on this code just
 2-3 days back only.

 - History of objects?Hi
 
 a relatively complex project I am working on now has a need for
 "versioning". I mean, we have a system for administration of data (creating
 and updating) in a database, and this data needs to be saved as separate
 versions each time it is updated - a lot like a CVS.
 
 The data is in the main "bridges", which have lots of data (name, location,
 height etc), and lots of related data: persons (controller, supervisor);
 tasks to be performed...
 
 It should for example be possible for a user to view a "bridge" as it looked
 on a certain date in the past, with all its related data (as they also were
 at that date).
 
 Does anyone have some good ideas about how we can save a history of versions
 of all our objects? Where can I start to look for good ideas? Could we use
 CVS via some sort of java api?
 
 Thanks,
 Peter

 - Beans with JSFI'm pretty new to programming with JSF and beans, and have been
 reading up the documentation in the book "Core JavaServer Faces"
 by D.Geary and C. Horstmann as well as online, and managed to
 get some simple programs to run, so at least I now understand
 some of the basics.
 
 However, I've got quite a lot of existing code in HTML and
 JavaScript that works, although not fully cleaned up yet, and I want
 to make as few changes as possible in order to modify it for using
 beans with JSF. Specifically, some months ago I wrote some
 client-side code which is backed up online at
 http://csharp.com/simulator/simulator.html, which I'm in the process
 of modifying for JSF. The links at the bottom take you to
 .../option1.html and .../option2.html, with the original source code
 at
 respectively .../option1.txt and .../option2.txt. At the moment the
 code is not linked to code on a server, so only the JavaScript works
 with the forms.
 
 The index page didn't need much work, with the main change being
 to include the JSF tags at the top (I'm leaving work on the counter
 until later). The option1 page is mostly one large form, and what I
 have since done is to keep the form as it is, except that it only
 operates with JavaScript, with the post, action, and JavaScript
 function calls at the beginning removed, together with the "Submit"
 and "Reset" buttons at the end. I put these two buttons together
 with calls to the JavaScript in a JSF form immediately below the
 end of original form, and after making a few changes to the
 JavaScript, got the JavaScript to work correctly and validate the
 form.
 
 My question is how do I send to the server the contents of the
 original form, including the hidden fields? Do I have to create a
 hidden field in the JSF form for each value entered in the main form,
 and create a bean for each of these values, or is there some way
 of sending the whole contents of the form to a bean, which can then
 parse the values. I want to avoid turning the original form into a
 JSF form, as it would probably mean making many changes to the
 JavaScript, which would require extra work and debugging.
 
 Exactly the same will be done with the option2 page once option1
 has been sorted out, and I would be most grateful for some advice.

 - Send ARPHello everyone,
 
 I want to verify if an IP is in my local net or not.
 If I send an ARP request and get a MAC from that then the IP is in the
 local net.
 That's why I need to send an ARP request in Java under Windows XP and
 NT.
 
 Can anyone tell my how this is done?
 Doing this native with the Windows iphlpapi.dll seems to be a bit
 complex.
 Any ideas for any easy way?
 
 Thanks.

 - Play audio clip in an ApplicationI'm trying to play an audio clip by using Applet's newAudioClip()
 method. That method takes a URL. The .wav file is located in a jar file
 (the only jar file). For example:
 if myJar.jar is the only jar file
 "java -jar myJar.jar" launches the application correctly and everything
 is wonderful. My audio clip won't play because I don't know how to
 access the .wav file from the jar file.
 
 This code snippet works fine when I'm not running from the jar file:
 
 try
 {
 File currentDir = new File(".");
 URL currentDirURL = currentDir.toURL();
 URL url = new URL(currentDirURL, fileName);
 AudioClip clip = Applet.newAudioClip(url);
 clip.play();
 }
 catch (Exception e)
 {
 e.printStackTrace();
 }
 
 It knows to look for the sound file in the current directory. How do I
 adjust this code to look for the sound file in the jar.
 
 I have a feeling it's an easy answer involving class.getResource().....

 : IIRC Arraylists are about 10 times slower than plain arrays. This is

 Can you give a pointer to a benchmark that shows this?
 Or can you build a benchmark that shows this?
 
 Can you give proof that this really is your hot spot? Most guesses
 about what to optimize is wrong.
 
 Anyway I find it hard to believe that arraylist is 10 times slower
 since the methods (get and set) does something like
 { RangeCheck(index); return elementData[index]; }.
 Ok the range check is unneccasry, it will be checked by the jvm also.
 If you use add a lot then it will check the size of the array and
 expand if neccessary. If you know in advance how many objects you will
 store this should not be a problem (you do create the list with the
 size), if you dont know in advance it will be hard to write something
 that is a magnitude faster...

 - Problem with IN parameters to an Oracle stored procedureHello all
 
 I had earlier posted the same problem I am having on
 comp.java.lang.programmer earlier and someone suggested this post
 would probably fall better under this group. Here is the link to the
 original post with the original post copy pasted below.
 
 http://groups.google.co.in/group/comp.lang.java.programmer/browse_thread/thread/b0b845981c3e403a/#
 
 Since then I have changed the IN parameter to my stored procedure to
 read as
 
 clID IN TABLEA.CLIENTID%TYPE
 
 instead of clientID, based on a suggestion to the earlier post and
 have still had no luck.
 
 Any suggestions are welcome.
 
 Thanks

 - using jsp:setProperty on non-simple types.Hi,
 
 I'm currently having a small problem with my application. I'm using
 some simple classes that wraps simple types to help me provide multiple
 representation. For example, a DateCBO calls wraps the Date type and
 gives me the oportunity to have various 'getters' like
 getDateShortFormat(), getHtml(), getDateLongFormat() and so on.
 
 My beans are using this kind of wrappers as their properties.
 
 I have already made a custom tag to retrieve information that i use
 instead of the standard jsp:getProperty
 Now, i'm trying to use the jsp:setProperty to initialise the bean
 property, but i have 'Could not coerce String to non-primitive type
 StringCBO without bean property editor (JSP 1.2: 2.13.2.1) at line 13'
 error.
 
 Is there an interface that i can use to allow direct usage of
 'jsp:setProperty', or should i create a custom tag as well.
 
 thanks.

 - tomcatI just installed Tomcat 5.5 and went to http://127.0.0.1:8080/. Then I

java-programmer, load servlet mappings at runtime in tomcat Can anyone suggest a way to achieve dynamic servlet mappings in tomcat 5.5.

What I want to do is run a web app with any number of paths all pointing to
one servlet. These paths would be loaded from a database and extra paths
can be added at runtime by the user. So an example would be
www.domain.com/sample and www.domain.com/anothersample would both execute
the same servlet.

Another option I thought of was having a custom 404 servlet that would check
the request supplied and then redirect.

Install it (or a forwarding servlet) as the default mapping in the root
webapp?

 - mouseClicked vs. mousePressed on Apple vs. WindowsI'm writing a Swing component which must function similarly on Apple
 and Windows; and am having trouble with which event to fire off of
 (this is effectively a toggle button which would ideally just be
 interested in mouseClicked). For a variety of other reasons, I don't
 want to make my code act on the mousePressed event.
 
 Originally, our QA person asserted that it was busted because she was
 clicking (and moving the mouse > 10 pixels) and it wasn't getting
 "toggled" (this was on Windows). I won the battle there by saying
 "don't move it 10 pixels; that's a drag, not a click". (after
 debugging and figuring out that if you moved the mouse more than
 approximately that much, the mouseClicked never came in).
 
 However, she now claims that on Apple (OSX) that the button fails to
 toggle if you move the mouse even one pixel while pressing the button.
 (i.e. if you are not perfectly still while clicking).
 
 Obviously this would be a different story. I don't have immediate
 access to an Apple machine, so was wondering if anybody else had seen
 this behavior. When I worked on the AWT on OS/2 at IBM, it was fairly
 clear that the mouse events were determined based on native operating
 system events (i.e. when Windows says it is a click, we'll say it is a
 click). Don't know if that's true now or not, since I haven't seen the
 code since Java 1.1.8.

 - Ultimate enterprise design pattern for 3 tiered appsSo, I feel I am close here is what I have so far.
 
 Goal: Database driven selection of controls on forms
 Goal: Business rules only aware of interfaces
 Goal: Presentation layer only aware of interfaces
 
 Database Table Person: Name, BirthDate, Gender, CreateDate, CreatedBy
 
 Value Object:
 
 public class Person {
 private String name;
 private DateTime birthDate;
 private int gender;
 private DateTime createDate;
 private int createdBy;
 }
 
 Business Layer Object:
 
 public interface IPersonModel {
 public boolean isTeenager();
 public boolean isMale();
 public boolean isFemale();
 }
 
 Presentation layer Multi Column List control
 
 public interface ITableList {
 public int rowCount();
 public Object getItemAtRow(int row);
 public Object getValueAtRowColumn(int row, int column);
 }
 public interface ITableItem {
 public Object getValueAtColumn(int column);
 }
 
 The most complex part is storing in a database table which fields on
 the value object will be presented in the multi column list control.
 It needs to be user friendly and maintainable.
 
 One time I tried having each value object with a switch statement for a
 unique number for each field. So the database contents and source code
 are kept in synch e.g. 266 in the database means 'Person CreateDate'
 and the value object returns that when implementing ITableItem.
 It worked but relies on a code generator to make it all work.
 
 This time around I thought I could keep a script in the database so the
 user would pick the first column to be person.getCreateDate(), the
 second to be person.getName() etc.
 Using reflection I could generate on the fly which attribute will be
 displayed in which column.
 
 Anyone think of other options?
 
 The other thing I need to change is it seems an unecessary dependency
 for the value object to implement ITableItem - there probably needs to
 be another class which does it and depending on the database values
 pulls the data from the value object.
 
 The same goes for the value object implementing the business rules.
 While probably not too bad if it does, perhaps mapping the values to
 something that does might work better.
 
 Apart from the value object I am trying to anything else in all the
 code knowing about fields which are only used for CRUD e.g. createDate.
 CreateDate may never be used for logic - in my app - ever - so why
 pass it around as business objects - better to only have things
 implementing interfaces where needed.
 
 What do you think so far?

 - [OT] Project documentationWell, they _are_ all Java projects... but it's OT, I know. I need to get a
 handle on project documentation. Can someone toss out some options for
 generating documentation? What is (or could be) behind the numbered
 chapter/section/subsection format of the various PDF files (specifications
 and manuals) that I download?
 
 I have so far adopted the xml and xsl transform found in many Apache and
 Jakarta projects, and that has helped tremendously for HTML documentation,
 but I need to be able to hand over a document and say 'this is what I'm
 building'.

 - Eclipse 3.3 - external tool arguments issue.
 I run the WebSphere command line wsadmin java tool as external tool in
 Eclipse. It works fine except where an External tool argument has an
 "=" sign as in "-javaoption -Dcom.ibm.ws.management.standalone2=xxxx".
 
 Wsadmin picks up the "-Dcom.ibm.ws.management.standalone2" variable
 but not the value. Seems that the Eclipse "arguments" dialog
 truncates values after the "=" sign. Is there a way around this.
 
 The arguments are listed below.
 
 -user 1234 -password xyz
 -lang jacl -host 11.11.11.11. -port 1111
 -javaoption -Dcom.ibm.ws.management.standalone2=xxxx
 -wsadmin_classpath C:\WASAdminSBV\WSAdmin\WAS5.1\JACL\proclib.jar
 -f ${resource_loc}
 
 The problem does not occur when Wsadmin is run from the command line.

 - JButton layout - equal width with no absurd stretchThank you for taking the time to enlighten me. I have been searching
 and trying different things but nothing seems to work for me. All I
 want to do is have a column of JButtons to the left of a JScrollPane.
 I want the buttons to have equal widths (the widest button at its
 minimum text-fitting width, all others stretched to an equal width) and
 be only as high as they need to be for their text. The scroll pane can
 fill the rest of the width (and height for that matter). Something
 like this:
 
 +----------------------------------+
 | |
 | +--------+ +-------------------+ |
 | | A | | | |
 | +--------+ | | |
 | | ABCDEF | | | |
 | +--------+ | JScrollPane | |
 | | ABCD | | | |
 | +--------+ | | |
 | | | |
 | +-------------------+ |
 | |
 +----------------------------------+
 
 I tried box layout, but then the buttons are not equal widths. Border
 layout makes the buttons equal widths, but stretches them to be as high
 as the scroll pane. Grid layout stretches them both vertically and
 horizontally. I think I tried gridbag layout and had the same problem
 as grid layout. The type of layout I want for the buttons reminds me of
 how a table would layout in an HTML document. I want to avoid using
 literal size values because of L&F issues on other platforms. Shrinking
 the height of the scroll pane is not an option. Does anyone have any
 suggestions?

 dlltool where the option should result in the @nn's being removed from
 the table of symbolic names. Is this correct?

 Symbian is by far the dominant mobile OS worldwide and don't see that
 changing soon, although tons of linux phone shipments to china, which
 has the largest mobile subscriber base in the world holds hope.
 
 As always, Java ME is the application platform for all these devices.

 - Advanced Tooltips in JavaHi
 
 I want to implement dynamic interactive tooltips in java so that the
 user can expand / collapse them. Also, if there are hyperlinks in the
 tooltip text, the user should be able to follow up this link. For the
 same purpose, I need to be able to catch any events associated with
 tooltips.
 
 I tried to search a lot on how to customize the behavior of tooltips in
 Java, however couldn't find any useful information. Does anyone know
 about how to proceed about this? Any suggestions / pointers would be
 greatly appreciated.
 
 Thanks,
 Shraddha

 - [encoding]Stupid question regarding encodingI have written a java plugin for an application that reads a file to execute
 a series of actions ; when I parse my text file I check for the existence
 of the following line "#HEADER" ; it works fine on my equipment ; on
 Windows somebody working with the text file encoded in utf-8 told me that
 there is problem as the line containing "#HEADER" is not found !
 
 Now I am a little bit puzzled about all this :
 
 (a) when you write java code and compile it what happens to the
 string "#HEADER" because it will be used in the following test :
 if (line.equals("#HEADER") {...}
 where line is read from the text file with encoding as is on the machine
 where the class is executed ? in other words you are comparing what to
 what ?
 
 (b) when with a Java app you read a text file can you get its encoding
 format like utf-8 or ANSI or whatever to decide about some actions to be
 taken ?
 
 I think the problem could be easily solved by replacing "#HEADER"
 by "_HEADER" but I have to go to the bottom of this to understand what is
 going on.
 Thanks
