  - R: JTable and db connectionThere is a good example in JTable example ad www.sun.com. By the way, it is
    based on the idea of copying all the records in a Vector array, and then
    send all to the JTable...
    IMHO this isn't a good approach, but it is a good example to understand the
    JTable
    
    Bye

  - portal library needed ?Hi all ,
    
    I am trying to build a portal which will consist of functions like log
    in , user management and some cms stuff and will probably develop more in
    the future. So I am trying to search for some portal building library. Has
    anyone try one of these portal library like jetspeed, jPorta, liferay ... ?
    Is it really that useful ? On what basis should I use one ? As i think the
    learning curve maybe quite large that I am sure i can build faster without
    it. But I am not sure if I would need it when I further develop the site.
    
    And can anyone share some pros and cons of the library.
    
    Thanks.

  - Disappearing JVM - strange errorHello,
    
    I'm having a very strange problem in one of my applications. This is
    what's happening:
    
    A few JVMs crash without giving any clues as to what is happening. No
    error messages, no stack traces, no core dumps. Nothing. Nada. They
    just disappear.
    
    I'm running on Windows 2000 and I had the same problem using JDKs
    1.3.1_07 and 1.3.1_08. Sometimes I also notice a Windows error dialog
    say that the "Application log is full" but I'm not sure it is related
    (because when the problem happens and the dialog is NOT there we can't
    see any entries in the application log).
    
    The application is a JBoss server process which is part of a cluster.
    In the process we have a RMI application running. The nodes that crash
    are the nodes where this RMI client/server is deployed. When the app
    server process starts we bind the RMI server stub in to the JNDI tree
    and this server object communicates with a number of different
    applications.
    
    I suspect that this could be related to RMI (distributed gc, maybe?)
    or the fact that this service running within the JBoss process is
    multi-threaded (relies heavily on waits and notifies). But I don't
    really know. The process simply disappears.
    
    We have deployed the RMI service in different machines to rule out the
    possibility of hardware failure but the crash happened anyway.
    
    We have a memory monitor that checks the memory usage every 30
    seconds. The logs show that the memory usage should not be a problem.
    It is possible, though, that we have a memory spike that takes less
    than 30 seconds to show up and crash the system in such a dramatic
    way.
    
    Has anyone here ever experienced or seen anything like this?
    
    Thanks in advance for any help.

  - Ussgin JUnit add ons to get the superclass
    Hi, I am using J-UNIT to test my code. I have some instances where
    the class heirarchy is makeing my shake my head as to how to test.
    
    Hope I can explain this so that someone can help...
    
    Here Goes . I have a class 'A', with a private attribute 'attrib', and a
    public accessor 'getAttrib'.
    
    Now there is another class, 'B' which is derived from 'A', however, it
    also has it's own private attribute 'attrib', and a public accessor
    'getAttrib'.
    
    We have software that loads A & B from XML Files, and i am trying to
    verify that they are working correctly (later on these classes will be
    persisted in a database, so I want to make sure that I can save and load
    them correctly).
    
    What i am trying to do is find out what is stored in 'A's attrib.
    
    Sort of like this :
    
    // The XML files holds teh data for both the super class and the sub
    class
    // The returned object is of Class 'B'
    A myA = B.loadFromXMLFile ( "FileName.xml" ) ;
    
    // Works Great, But how do i get to the getAttrib of the A object
    (super class) ?
    assertEquals ( "attrib", 123, myA.getAttrib () ) ;
    
    Now is there a way to get the attribute for the attrib of 'A' ?
    
    Using the NetBeans debugger I can se the value for attrib= 5
    
    is there a way to do something like the following ?
    
    // This does not work, but is there any way to acheive the
    // Same results ?
    A theRealA = PrivateAccessor.getField( myA, "super" ) ; // ??
    
    // and then
    assertEquals ( "attrib", 5, theRealA.getAttrib () ) ;
    
    Thanks in Advance !

  - default value of data member.Hi
    
    I have a problem about default value of data member!
    
    +++++++ cut here++++++
    class CComputer
    {

    c1.set(-3.5,-2.0);
    c1.show_all();
    c1.set(-3.5);
    c1.show_all();
    }
    }
    +++++++
    
    The output of "c1.set(-3.5,-2.0);" shows memory=1.5.
    The output of " c1.set(-3.5);" also shows memory=1.5;
    
    Why? I thought memory should be default value, i.e. 1.0.
    
    Thank you in advance.

  - ToolTip for Graphical ItemsHello,
    
    I'm trying to make a tool tip pop up whenever the user does a
    mouse-over on a filled rectangle that I've drawn on the screen. I have
    no trouble creating the rectangle
    
    Rectangle test = new Rectangle();
    
    And it seems like there should be something like
    test.setToolTipText("rectangle"), but as far as I can tell, there's
    nothing like that. Is there some way to do this?
    
    Thanks,

  - Infinite loops in hashCode() and equals()What do you think the following fragment prints?:
    
    List l = new ArrayList();
    l.add(l);
    System.out.println(l.hashCode());
    
    Trick question. The result is an infinite recursion (i.e. a stack
    overflow), since the hash code for a List is calculated from the hash codes
    of its members.
    
    Likewise, the following causes an infinite recursion, since lists are
    defined to be equal when they have the same members.
    
    List l1 = new ArrayList();
    List l2 = new ArrayList();
    
    l1.add(l2);
    l2.add(l1);
    
    System.out.println(l1.equals(l2));
    
    These cases are simple to spot, but the same situation could occur with any
    cyclic graph of objects that compute hash code and/or equality based on the
    values of their members. Also, equals() and hashCode() are often called
    implicitly, for instance when adding an object to a HashSet or HashMap.
    
    I don't see any way this could be addressed other than by keeping track of
    which objects have already been processed by the current hashCode() or
    equals() call, and there's no way to do that without changing the method
    signatures, to, say, add a Set:
    
    in Object:
    
    public final int hashCode() {
    return hashCode(new HashSet());
    }
    
    public final int hashCode(Set processed)
    {
    if (processed.contains(this)) {
    return System.identityHashCode(this);
    }
    else {
    processed.add(this);
    return this.calculateHashCode(processed);
    }
    }
    
    public int calculateHashCode(processed) {
    return return System.identityHashCode(this);
    }
    
    with calculateHashCode(Set) being the method that classes can override and
    hashCode(Set) the method List et al. call on their members. And that is a
    pipe dream, since it isn't possible to make this sort of incompatible change
    at this late date.

  - A strange linux command execution problem from ProcessHi All,
    
    I am using Process class to run scripts on a Fedora Core Linux

    Way back, Google's purchase of old Usenet bulletin boards was probably
    a good thing (through purchase, I believe, of Deja News). Now with
    the continuing evolution of the Internet - with Blogs and associated
    RSS feeds, etc. - this type of forum is becoming largely irrelevant
    and should be done away with. I would like to thank all of you
    nimrods posting this kind of crap on this board for opening my eyes
    completely to this fact. Do you actually regard yourself so highly
    that you think that people actually CARE to read your constant
    blatherings on this and that nonsense?
    
    Every now and then I return to c.l.j.a. just to see if anything of
    interest has been posted - kind of like how I leaf through JDJ to see
    if they've managed to write a decent article. This will hopefully be
    my last visit unless I end up here by mistake or by habit. Thanks
    again.

java-programmer, UTF 16 (byte[]) <--> String? Hi,

is there a convenient way to convert unicode that's stored in byte array to
java String?
and vice-versa?

e.g. for a single single unicode,
the higher byte would be in byte[0],
lower byte[1]
and byte[2], byte[3] = 0. null terminated

the byte array of unicode is generated from a C program and transfered over
the network ..

looking over the String API doesn't reveal much ... or am I overlooking
something?

Thanks in advance.

String -> bytes: string.getBytes("UTF-16BE")
bytes -> String: new String(bytes, 0, len, "UTF-16BE")

You'd have to write code to find the length of the byte array (i.e. to
search for the null terminator.)

See http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/nio/charset/Charset.html
There you find the short list of standard charsets (the minimum set to
be supported by any Java platform).
The complete list of available charsets can be got by calling
Charset.availableCharsets()

  - Re:Correct use of exceptionsWhen we talk about exception, it means that in some situation which we think
    that it should works this way, but it isn't. For example, when we write
    something to connect to remote SMTP server, we assume that the remote server
    should be available but actually it is down... In this case, the exception
    happened... So we need the exception handling to show our error message to
    user and log the error.
    
    Hope this helps!

  - Eclipse vs NetBeans vs Jbuilder under LinuxHello everyone,
    I've tried the above 3 IDEs in the last year and thought I might make some
    comments and ask for your thoughts. Just for interest sake and please don't
    start a Holy War ;-)
    
    I originally used netBeans for development, but switched over to Jbuilder
    because we where doing tomcat/struts development and my boss said it had
    better support. I didn't really get to use netBeans struts stuff but it did
    seem a bit weak in comparision.
    
    I would have thought Borland would have a great editor, but I find it very
    buggy in comparison to netBeans. Some of the things I have had problems
    with include the cursor not being moved when you click in the text area
    (this tends to screw up click and drag rearrangement of text or do it when
    you don't mean too), auto-formatting of code rearranging it until it won't
    compile, method parameter popups not always accessable, method parameter
    popups not able to show the names of parameters - only the type, and some
    others I can't remember right now.
    
    However, the struts support in JBuilder does seem to be better than netBeans
    and runs quite well. Over all the IDE also seems a little quicker and I
    quite like the way that you can have multiple projects open and flip
    between then with ease. netBeans doesn't seem to handle multiple projects
    as smoothly as JBuilder.
    
    I also tried Eclipse at home a couple of time in the last 6 months and at
    the moment I can't see why many people are using it. On both occasions I
    found also sorts of nasty bugs which tended to simple drive me nuts. The
    last time time I used it for example, I found that it would not run the
    code I had just edited. I.e. if I could load a project, made some changes
    and hit the run button, it would run the code without the changes included.
    In order to get the changes it, I had to explicitly do a save before each
    run. This sounds trivial but can get very annoying, both netBeans and
    JBuilder run the code you are editing, not the last saved code.
    
    Eclipse also seemed to have a strange concept of projects. It looked rather
    good with being able to see multiple project trees at the same time until
    it came to running them. Then it appeared to separate the concept of
    running a projects from the projects themselves and I had to effectively
    re-setup again. I also found that if I had en error in one project, it
    would fail the compile even if I was in another project. So whilst I could
    have multiple projects open at a single time, it seemed to have trouble
    understanding which projects I was in and what it was to compile. This
    resulted in me having to unload/reload projects on a regular basis. I also
    remember not being that happy with it's editor either, I can't remember
    exactly why right now.
    
    So, I would have to say that at the moment, I would tend to use netBeans for
    general development, JBuilder for struts and Eclipse not at all.

  - batch update as a single transactionHi,
    
    I'm doing a JDBC batch update, writing several thousand rows to a single
    table. As I understand it a batch update can partially succeed, so some of
    my rows might get written and some not. I'd like the batch update to either
    fully succeed or completely fail, commit or rollback in other words. Is that
    easy to do? I'm pretty new at this.
    
    Thanks,

  - Just a Great Big Scrollable LineHello,
    I am a bit new to java and the java swing GUI.
    I am writing a JApplet.
    What I am trying to do is draw a line (say from (0, 0) to (1000, 1000)) and
    have the applet supply automatic scrollbars so that the user can see the
    whole line (sounds stupid - I know, but its a step in my direction).
    Anyway, I tried to inherit from a JLabel, change the inherited comopnent's
    paintComponent method to draw a line and put the inherited component in a
    JScrollPane. However, this only resulted in a Line which was only partially
    seen and no scrollbars. Moreover, I discovered that if I just add text to
    my label with the setText method then I get auto scrollbars if I make the
    applet smaller than the text size. This means that the setText method is
    doing something that defines it's boundaries for the JScrollPane to react
    to. So, my question is: How do I tell the JScrollPane that my inherited
    JLabel is 1000x1000 (and not just the size of the text)?
    Thanks,
    Aviv.

  - Simple question for those who understand recursion well. Please help.I have a tree represented as a linked list of simple objects
    (nodeId/parentId pairs) where the root node is the 1st element in the
    list. The other nodes are in somewhat random order. The parentId refers
    to the parent node.
    
    I want to convert it into a list where the values are in pre-order.
    I.e., I want to get this list as follows: ABCDEFGHIJ (see graph below).
    I.e., get the 1st node, put in in the list. If it has children, go
    through them one by one, get their child nodes, then put the parent in
    the list, then the leftmost first, and go from there. I.e., so that
    it's ordered in my linked list like this by (letters represent nodeId):
    
    A
    / \
    B J
    / | \
    C H I
    |
    D
    /|\
    E F G
    
    I created the following recursive method but it does not work
    correctly. For example, it places the nodes A then B and then J into
    the list first, rather than getting to J after adding all the child
    nodes. "isOnTheList" checkes whether the item is already in the list.
    "getImmediateChildren" returns the list of immediate child nodes
    ordered by nodeId
    
    Note: the empty list is passed to the method and is populated with the
    result:
    
    public static void orderTree(List list, List treeList) {
    if(treeList == null || treeList.size() == 0)
    return;
    
    Node child = null; List children = null;
    
    for(int i = 0; i < treeList.size(); i++) {
    node = (Node) treeList.get(i);
    // get list of children for this node
    children = getImmediateChildren(node, treeList);
    
    // if the node is not yet on the list, add it
    if(! isOnTheList(node, list) )
    list.add(cat);
    
    // if it has children, recurse to add all other nodes
    if(children.size() > 0) {
    orderTree(list, children);
    }
    }
    }
    
    Any idea what the problem is?
    
    Thanks.

  - Struts and AA based on a database
    Hello:)
    
    I have a question concerning authentification/authorization and
    elements visibility on a Web page in Struts. How to manage the
    visibility of control elements in a Struts-based application? The
    information about users should be stored in a database and not in XML
    configuration files. How to use role based or/and function based
    authorization system and how to retrieve the rights from a database and
    store them in the Principal object? The application is mantained within
    Tomcat application server. So, how to do this? Or, being more precise,
    is there any open-source library which provides such a functionality or
    should I develop everything from scratch? Do you have some examples for
    such stuff?
    
    best regards,

    There's nothing which "requires" you to forward to a JSP; you could
    just as easily forward to an action. The hitch here is that the
    ActionForm will be populated according to the request parameters if
    you just perform a forward. The solution is simply to specify
    redirect="true" in the forwarding action so that the request
    parameters get lost.
    Just be careful in your validate method when using this mechanism:
    you're users will be irked if the first time they see a page it
    contains all manner of error messages. Since you often provide a
    reset button on a form, the smart way to approach the situation is
    to hold off generating errors if all form fields are blank (or
    have the default value).
    If this doesn't make perfect sense then repost and I'll dig up
    some sample code. Or contact me off-line.

  - How to get current jar pathHi! I'm working on an application that should run on an usb pen using
    an embedded Derby DB. I need the DB to be on the USB pendrive with the
    application.
    Pen filesystem should look like this:
    
    /
    - application/
    - application.jar
    - lib/
    - embeddedDB
    
    using "user.dir" system property i get the path from where the jar has
    been launched, while I need the path where the jar is. How can I do?
