  - Generics and returning specific subclass from methodI have an abstract class called say Base and two subclasses, say Sub1 and
    Sub2. Let me define a method in Super which I want to return a new instance
    of the superclass itself but I want to access this without having to cast.
    IE,
    
    public class Super {
    
    public <E extends Super> E partialCopy() {
    return this; // return this for example
    }
    }
    
    public class Sub1 extends Super { }
    
    Then I want to do this without the cast.
    
    Sub1 s1 = new Sub1();
    Sub2 s2 = s1.partialCopy();
    
    Can I do this with generics ?

  - Toward a generic Disk Sort for JavaI was thinking how you might go about writing a sort that could handle
    more data than could fit in RAM. It handled the problem is Abundance
    by checkpointing the app to disk to free up maximum RAM, then spawning
    a copy of Opt-Tech sort. My records were roughly like DataOutputStream
    would produce, so I could automatically generate the command script
    sort the fields in any way I wanted.
    
    I thought you might pull it off in Java this way.
    
    1. You write a comparator as if you were going to sort Objects in an
    ArrayList.
    
    2. the external sort has an add method that also takes collections.
    
    It accepts a "chunk" of records, and sorts them using Sun's sort.
    
    Then it writes them out as SERIALISED objects in heavily buffered
    stream. There may be some way to do a partial reset after each object
    to speed it up.
    
    Then you repeat collecting, sorting and writing another batch to
    another file.
    
    When you have created N files, you recycle, appending. (Optimal N to
    be determined by experiment). Ideally each file would be on a
    different physical drive.
    
    Then when all the records have been added, you start merging chunks
    into longer chunks, and writing out the longer chunks. Each N-way
    merge cuts the number of chunks by 1/N and increases the length of the
    chunks N times.
    
    on the final merge pass does not happen until the user invokes the
    Iterator to hand over the resulting records.
    
    Another way it might be done is the records to be sorted must by byte
    arrays, chunks effectively produced by DataOutputStream. You specify
    offset, length and key type e.g.
    int, byte, short, float, double, String.
    
    This would require a detailed knowledge of the bit structure of the
    records, the way you did in the olden days of assembler and C.
    
    This would be clumsier to use, but would avoid the overhead of
    pickling and reconstituting records on every pass.
    
    Then of course, there is the possibility someone has already solved
    this and done it well.
    
    The universe has a sneaky habit. Problems start out small, and it
    looks like a purely in RAM solution is perfectly adequate. Then they
    bit by bit grow and grow and start pushing the limits of the RAM
    solution. Suddenly you are faced with a major redesign.

  - Exec() Help!Hi,
    
    I'm trying to start an external applet from an applet I'm writing. I know
    Exec() Is the key, but I don't know how to use it. I know how to execute
    external native programs (I.e. programs I have written in BASIC and
    compiled). But starting an applet from an applet totally throws me. I have
    tried searching the net, and that has a lot to say about executing shell
    scripts, and natives - which I know how to do.
    
    What classes do I need to import? what line of code invokes an external
    applet? I don't need to grab output from the applet I want to execute, or
    send input. I just want it to run.
    
    Pleeeeeeez can anyone help, my project has to be handed in soon :-(

  - do XML/XSD validation with Ant 1.5.4 and JDK 1.4.2. How?Buried somewhere in the documentation for the 1.4 JDK is a statement that
    the included XML parser class cannot do schema validation (DTD validation:
    yes, Schema validation: no). However, I believe that Ant uses the XML
    parser in its ANT_HOME/lib directory. You probably have an older xerxes.jar
    and the your best bet is to delete that and download the latest xerces.jar
    and drop it into the ANT_HOME/lib directory.

  - create a new windows (xp) service that runs a jar fileHello guys,
    
    Does anyone has experience/know how to create a new windows (xp)
    service that runs a jar file? This issue rises as i need to hide the
    most of the java implementation in this project before it goes live.
    
    So the idea is, to have control on the exceution of the jar from
    windows windows service console (which the users can define the startup
    type i.e. manual, automatic, disabled and the running life cycle i.e.
    start, stop, pause, resume, restart...).
    
    so any leads to solving this will be appreciated.
    
    Thanks in advance. Have a nice day!

  - instanceOf operator new bie questionI am using Java 1.4.2.x
    
    I wrote following code:
    
    NumberFormat df;
    df = NumberFormat.getInstance();
    if (df instanceof DecimalFormat) {
    ((DecimalFormat) df).setMinimumIntegerDigits(1);
    ((DecimalFormat) df).setDecimalSeparatorAlwaysShown(true);
    }
    
    What does "df instanceof DecimalFormat" really mean? Does it mean that
    NumberFormat can be converted to DecimalFormat? Because my
    NumberFormat.getInstance() is returning me a NumberFormat and not
    DecimalFormat what else could it mean.
    
    I did read about instanceOf opeartor on google, but it is still
    confusing to me.
    
    Thanks a lot.

  - Bug in java.net.Socket close() behavior?According to the API for java.net.Socket close():
    
    "Any thread currently blocked in an I/O operation upon this socket
    will throw a SocketException."
    
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/net/Socket.html#close()
    
    I have observed that java 1.5 on FreeBSD does not follow this while
    the Windows and Linux ones I have tested do. On the FreeBSD runtimes
    that I have tested, a thread blocked on reading a socket just hangs
    forever if the socket is closed.
    
    Attached is a simple program that tests this behavior. It just
    connects to a port on one of my servers and has a reader thread
    watching input from the socket and closes the socket in a different
    thread to see if the reader thread gets an exception.
    
    Java runtimes that I have tested this on:
    # java -version
    java version "1.5.0"
    Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build diablo-1.5.0-b01)
    Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build diablo-1.5.0_07-b01, mixed mode)
    
    # java -version

  - Convert from text string "Hello" to floating-point number issueHi there,
    My java lecturer has given us an assignment related to casting and
    type conversion etc.
    One of the conversions he wan't is convert "Hello" to a float.
    
    I suspect this is a trick question on his part as "Hello" is not a
    parsible value.
    This is the code I have:
    //Convert String object "s" to a Float object
    //then convert Float object to float value
    try { System.out.println("String is "+s+" float is
    "+Float.valueOf(s).floatValue());
    }
    
    catch (NumberFormatException NFE)
    { System.out.println("NumberFormatException: "+ NFE.getMessage()+
    " The input string does not contain a parsable number"); }
    I emailed the guy but he says just to use your own judgement.
    I looked at the API for the wrapper classes etc and I think a
    conversion of this type is almost impossible.
    Any ideas welcome.

java-programmer, JRE installation woes Hi All

I have installed the latest version of Sun's JRE on my Windows XP Pro PC.
However, its "performance" is somewhere between abysmally slow and not at
all. If I e.g. open the Java Control Panel module and click on one of the
tabs, it takes over two minutes for that tab to display - this on a 3.4 GHz
dual-processor 4 GB memory PC. Java aplications run no better. It does seem
to "speed up" if I Alt-tab to another program and then Alt-tab back.

CPU load is negligible so clearly, the JRE is waiting for something that
occurs only rarely. But I have no idea where to look.

Any help will be very much appreciated.

Ebbe

Ebbe:

Which version are you running? If it is 1.5.0_07, try installing
1.6.0beta2. I have seen similar problems with 07 and others have
reported it too. It doesn't seem to be consistent from one machine to
another however.

  - Show a bean property in jsf....it's so difficult?????Hi....
    i'm a simple problem but i don't found a working solution....
    I have a jsf application and i have to show a bean value into a jsp
    page.
    I show you my passes...please correct me where i go wrong,,,
    For the first i declare property in backing bean
    
    private String[] arraylinee;
    
    In my application an user clicks a button, the application calls bean's
    method and creates this array of string,that's what i want to show in
    my jsp page.
    I've developed in my backing bean getter and setter methods..
    
    public String[] getarraylinee(){
    return arraylinee;
    }
    public void setarraylinee(String[] arraylinee){
    this.arraylinee=arraylinee;
    }
    
    1a Question)
    It's not needed that bean return property?
    
    That is...my bean's method is
    
    public String retrieveblob()throws
    IOException,SQLException,NullPointerException{
    Database2 db2 = new Database2("nomeDB","root","shevagol");
    if (db2.connetti())
    k=1;
    else k=0;
    //try{
    Connection dbo=db2.getConnection();
    Statement st = null;
    
    try {
    st = dbo.createStatement();
    }
    catch (NullPointerException exc) {
    exc.printStackTrace();
    }
    
    ResultSet rs = null;
    try {
    rs = st.executeQuery("SELECT Data FROM tbl WHERE nome='1' ");
    }
    catch (NullPointerException exc) {
    exc.printStackTrace();
    }
    
    try {
    rs.first();
    }
    catch (NullPointerException exc) {
    exc.printStackTrace();
    }
    try {
    Blob blob = rs.getBlob("Data");
    byte[] read = blob.getBytes(1, (int) blob.length());
    st.close();
    String lettura=new String(read);
    String[] arraylinee=lettura.split(";");
    }
    catch (NullPointerException exc) {
    exc.printStackTrace();
    }
    
    return "Result";
    }
    
    Result is a string useful for navigation...
    Let's go to jsp page
    
    codice:<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h" %>
    <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f" %>

    <jsp:useBean id="myBean" class="giu.MyBean" scope="session"/>
    <%@ page import="giu.MyBean" %>
    <%-- Instantiate class --%>
    
    <html>
    <head>
    <title></title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <f:view>
    <f:verbatim>
    <h:outputText value="#{MyBean.k}"/>
    <table>
    <c:forEach items="${session.myBean.arraylinee}" var="linea" >
    <tr>
    <td>
    <c:out value="${linea}" />
    </td>
    </tr>
    </c:forEach>

    </f:verbatim>
    </f:view>
    
    </body>
    </html>
    
    Don't care for MyBean.k, i use it for controlling if db connection
    works fine...
    In summary i want this jsp page prints my array of string,one for line.
    How can i do?
    The bean is called MyBean and it's in the package giu.
    Can you help me correcting my code directly???
    Ah....with my actual application the jsp output is:

  - Expanding on Video Formats
    I'm wondering if somebody with java knowledge will be able answer my
    question.
    
    Would it be within the realms of possibility to create a web-based
    video editing suite? (Which media format -- Windows, Quicktime, etc. --
    might best lend itself to such a task?)
    
    Also, I imagine that this application may require a desaturation
    process to bring down the memory size for the raw footage.
    
    I don't know enough about java programming to even guess about this;
    but with the current prevalence of digital editing software, an online
    version has convenience written all over it.

  - [J2ME] UI /freezes/ after IOExceptionHi,
    
    I have a MiDlet that starts a Thread through a Runnable, in which
    there is IO activity:
    Runnable runner = new Runnable() { // some IO stuff there };
    Thread thd = new Thread(runner);
    thd.start();
    
    The application runs well, until I need to close the IO channels that
    are opened in that separate Thread.
    Of course, I catch the IOException in my Thread, and the Thread
    completes properly (and dies...).
    But after this catch, the UI is not responding: if I press a button the
    menu will not show, and if I do some programmaticaly changes in the UI
    it does not display and the call blocks (i.e. if I add an item in the
    current screen, nothing happens and the next line --System.out.println--
    doesn't execute).
    I know the application didn't die, cause I have another Thread running a
    'while' loop and printing "I am alive!" even when the UI freezes.
    And also if I don't perform UI changes I can print stuff in the main Thread.
    
    Any idea to help me ? Thank you.

  - JAWS failureThis just started happening.
    
    I can run a JAWS app from within the browser.
    But when I later go to run from the desktop icon it says I don't have
    Java 1.6 installed.
    
    Here is a typical JNLP file after JAWS has normalised it:
