  - read gps bluettoth on applet pda - javacommHi all,
    
    I'm a student..
    
    I wrote an applet for PC that reads GPS data from serial port (using
    javacomm)....
    I would like to have the same applet on my pda, an IPAQ h1940 with bluetooth
    gps receiver ....
    
    I'm using javacomm and driver for pda found on www.teilo.net , I followed
    the steps of the site, but it doesn't work... :-(
    
    any questions:
    
    - where have I to put javax.comm.properties, CESerial.jar and comm.jar ???
    in which directory?
    - how can I add the directory containing the javax.comm.properties, and the
    paths to both jar files to my classpath? modifying the registry? which key?
    (I searched in the registry but I didn't find none of java, path, classpath
    etc...)
    
    - if I want to read bluettoth data, I have to read a virtual serial port
    (COM8?), right?
    
    thanks all!

    Garbage collection can have an advantage in multi threaded applications,
    and in Java we can have exact c. The JIT can optimise (and inline) the
    code you are actually using today. I have code where part of computation
    is represented by an interface and the implementation selected depends
    on the data being processed.
    In a compiled language you can't optimise across the interface call
    whereas with Java you can. Even better you can generate byte code at run
    time (e.g. compile an expression typed by the user) and then the JIT can
    compile that to machine code and if it is simple enough inline it.
    Java can devirtualise a method call if at some point you happen to have
    only one implementation in the JVM.

    If it is something you fire up manually then the startup time isn't
    important (takes you longer to type the command). If it is run from a
    script, then it rather depends on the script (i.e. if the script system
    maintains a JVM to execute little tasks in, the startup time can again
    be negligible).

    Such things still exist but have always struggled to match the
    performance of regular JVMs.

    Take advantage of its strength, the ability to compile dynamically
    loaded (or created) code and optimise the whole without regard for
    module boundaries. Also take advantage of garbage collection --- its
    performance has dramatically improved in recent years.

  - Two column list with JOptionPaneYes, this is a homework question. My assignment is:
    Modify the mortgage program using a graphical user interface to allow the
    user to input the amount of a mortgage and then select from a menu of
    mortgage loans: 7 year at 5.35%, 15 year at 5.5 %, and 30 year at 5.75%.
    Use an array for the different loans. Display the mortgage payment amount.
    Then, list the loan balance and interest paid for each payment over the term
    of the loan. Allow the user to loop back and enter a new amount and make a
    new selection, or quit. Insert comments in the program to document the
    program.
    
    I have been able to complete all of it except the part about list the loan
    balance and interest paid. I used JOptionPane to do all the graphical user
    interface and the menu of mortgages (see code below), but can't seem to come
    up with a way to display the information in JOptionPane. If there is
    another way that will work please point me in the right direction.
    
    private static double option(double inputAmount)
    {
    // declares variables
    double amount = inputAmount;
    double monthlyPayment = 0.0;
    boolean done = false;
    
    // loop while not done
    while (!done)
    {
    // declare and set size of/initializes array
    double loanInfo[][] = new double [][] {{5.35, 5.5, 5.75},{7,15,30}};
    
    // creates an array to hold the options
    String smallList[] = {"7 year at 5.35%","15 year at 5.5%","30 year at
    5.75%"};
    String option = (String)JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,"Which loan
    option?","Options",JOptionPane.QUESTION_MESSAGE,null,smallList,smallList[smallList.length-1]);
    
    for(int count = 0; count < smallList.length; count++)
    {
    // checks answers for match and sends info to calculate payment
    if(option == smallList[count])
    {
    // calls method to calculate the monthly payment
    monthlyPayment = calculationsPayment(amount, loanInfo[0][count],
    loanInfo[1][count]);
    done = true;
    }
    }
    }
    return monthlyPayment;

  - Bug in IE with KB896727Recently we installed the MS05-038 as part of Windows Update. After this we
    found out that our Code behind HTML application created in VJ++ is not
    loading properly in IE 6 browser. We chekced all the Security settings and
    they seem to work fine.
    If we uninstall the Hotfix update ( KB896727 ) the application again loads
    properly. Is there any work around for this issue. This is very critical.

  - ASP.NET vs J2EE - Scalability and SpeedRegarding this pieces of information:
    65% of the Fortune 500 companies
    80% of the top US healthcare companies
    75% of commercial banks worldwide
    90% of the top commercial banks in the US
    67% of the world's largest banks use IBM messaging servers
    15 of the top Wall Street brokerage firms
    7 of the 8 largest US telecommunications companies
    
    That's true. But what I can understand about that figure was -
    Those businesses started using Internet and Computer Networking
    technologies times ago. It happens before Microsoft started to get
    strong. I am working in a pharmaceutical company in US and we are using
    lots of IBM products. We are trying very hard to stop using them and
    turn our techology to Microsoft. Off course, personnally - I hate
    microsoft - I dont' feel fun when I use any one of micrsoft product.
    But in the business term - Microsoft products are qualified. Cheap to
    support and run - some tools are never over kill such as SQL server. We
    are using Oracle but I found only SQL server that just more than enough
    and a lot cheaper to run (cost of DBA and Programmer, etc).
    
    Webspere? Naaa .... we have been using Webspere when we started having
    our own Web site and Intranet sites. Then we changed to Coldfusion in
    the last 5 years. I found those suck! Cost too much money - when
    Microsoft IIS5 or 6 are free also .NET - so, why not!!!!
    
    Sure - a lot of Banks use J2EE - same reason! They rally want to stop
    using it but they cannot because everybody started with J2EE and know
    J2EE better than anything else!!!
    
    Sad but true!

  - security-roles: application.xml vs web.xmlHi,
    
    does anybody know how a webmodule behaves when It is assemble in an ear
    containing the web module and I include security-roles in both the
    application.xml and web.xml? I have been browsing both the j2ee and servlet
    specs, but I haven't found any description of mandated behaviour. I have
    tested a little with sun one appserver7. This appserver seems to ignore the
    security-roles defined in the web.xml. What's more, don't mentioning
    security-roles in the application.xml and only use the web.xml for mapping
    security-roles breaks the login process.
    
    Does all this mean that security-roles in the web.xml file can only be used
    for standalone web applications and not for web modules who are part of an
    ear?
    
    Cheers

  - Packing Resource-Based App Into a .JARI have an application which uses outside data files. That is, it has
    lines of code like this:
    
    DataReader.loadFile("data/MyFile.dat");
    
    Right now the app is just a bunch of .class files and I start it on
    the command line from the appropriate directory to ensure that the
    data files can be found.
    
    But I want to package the app as a .jar (a .jar which includes the
    data files) and be able to run the .jar from any directory. That is,
    when it's running, java should search for the data files relative to
    the .jar root, rather than relative to the root where the process was
    started.
    
    How can I do this?

    imho what your talkin bout has nothin to do with a free market. if
    there's no market for it the market wouldn't be there. if there is a
    need a market would self create itself. in your example, no company
    would try to charge you for the trails you use if there was no way to
    make $ off of it(of course there is and they are, hiking boots from
    texas, rain jacket made in china, etc..). the destruction of nature
    caused by hikers has more to do with govt and user obligations than
    with free trade. actually none of that example has to do with free
    trade.

    actually we got what's called national parks where the govt pays for
    its upkeep subsidized by entry fees. i'm guessing our national park
    system has 100s of millions of people accessing them per yr and
    preserves what would otherwise be developed.

    we do have a world govt. there are people who specialize in
    international laws. yes multinationals have way too much power,
    however, this isn't because of free trade. its because we as a species
    are too greedy and corrupt.
    
    we have everything we need to create a paradise but none of the social

  - Technique for loading user defined modulesDear all,
    
    I am writing a program to do data analysis. I want the user to be able to
    extend the functionality of the software by adding their own "analysis
    modules" but am unsure how to go about this. From the user perspective, I
    would like the application to look in a particular directory (or along some
    user defined search path) for modules (classes) with the appropriate
    behaviour and make these modules (classes) available through the program's
    user interface.
    
    It must be possible to complile these modules without access to the source
    code for the entire data analysis program.
    
    Can anyone give me some hints on which direction I should go in to handle
    this issue?
    
    Thanks in advance,
    Per

java-programmer, How to get files files which were last used Hi,

is it possible to determine the files which were last used from
different applications (e.g. "readme.txt was used in the last 2 hours")
on MAC with Java by default System calls?

Or is this only possible by writing a sort of "trigger" application?

Thanks,

Peter Vermeer

There is talk of adding a Most Recently Used document feature to JDIC
(and thence to Java SE), but nothing solid yet.

http://weblogs.java.net/blog/georgez/archive/2005/07/jdicjavaone_200.html

Quite possibly someone else has come up with a Mac specific solution.

On windows, there is a Last Access date which tell the last time
anyone read/wrote the file. Checking if it exists or checking its
date does not count as an access. You can get at it with
http://mindprod.com/products1.html#FILETIMES

You would have to implement the native method for MacOS.

I don't know if Macs maintain a last access time. It is an expensive
thing to maintain.

java-programmer >> How to get files files which were last used So FileTimes gives me a list of last modified or new files independent
of the application the files came from?
For example in MS Word I change an existing file. Now I start FileTimes
which gives me back the filename?

  - graphic rendering questionHi All,
    
    I am investigating writing a Java application to render postscript into a
    Graphics2D object (or other suitable alternative). Has anyone had any
    experience with this sort of thing? I have come across a number of
    libraries that work in the other direction (i.e. Graphics2D to postscript
    or PDF), but none for what I have in mind. Could anyone suggest some
    possibilities? Thanks very much.

    Turing completeness is only one measure of power. And not a very
    good one for measuring different systems of templates. If you use
    templates for any sort of computational programming beyond some
    very simple things you are stretching the rubber band beyond its

  - Setting namespaces in DOMHi all,
    
    I'm trying to construct an XML (SOAP) document, with a number of namespaces.
    
    DOM provides Document.createElementNS(), which can be used to add the
    namespace in the particular element. However, I often get the case where
    the namespace definition is repeated in multiple sibling elements, while
    it would be a lot simpler (cleaner?) to define the namespace only once
    at a higher level.
    
    I tried using
    
    document.getRootElement().setAttribute("xmlns:xsd", XSD_NS);
    
    but, even though the document.toString() shows the correct xmlns:xsd
    attribute in the root node, it is still repeated in the lower level
    elements.
    
    Does anyone have any idea of how the DOM decides when to "roll-up" a
    namespace definition to a higher level? Or how to tell it to?
    
    I'm talking about the difference between:
    
    <rootnode>
    <childnode xsi:type="xsd:int" xmlns:xsi="http://w3c.blah"/>
    <childnode xsi:type="xsd:int" xmlns:xsi="http://w3c.blah"/>
    <childnode xsi:type="xsd:int" xmlns:xsi="http://w3c.blah"/>
    </rootnode>
    
    and
    
    <rootnode xmlns:xsi="http://w3c.blah">
    <childnode xsi:type="xsd:int"/>
    <childnode xsi:type="xsd:int"/>
    <childnode xsi:type="xsd:int"/>
    </rootnode>
    
    Many thanks.

  - BUG in jre that work fine in jview - mouseEventAnyone come up with an answer to this?
    I'm having the same problem, I've created
    a "skin" slider control in J++, when I use
    Microsoft it returns coordinates relative to
    the slider control, when I use Sun it's relative
    to the applet, the listener class and handler is
    within the slider control class.
    
    I've found LOTS of examples online that are setup
    just like my code, and they all, including Sun's
    documentation (as well as Microsoft's) say it should
    be relative to the control.
    
    Thanks,
    EdisonCPP

  - directory questionI have a file named "main.ini" in the directory of jar (self-executable
    package)
    When I run jar from its directory all ok
    When I run jar from another directory it cannot found "main.ini"
    
    I open "main.ini" with
    InputStream is = new FileInputStream("main.ini");
    but I understand I must open it with
    InputStream is = new FileInputStream(getDirectoryOfJavaProgram() +
    "main.ini");
    
    can you implement
    getDirectoryOfJavaProgram()???
    
    thanks!

  - Question concerning jh_manifestHi Matthew,
    
    I have further researched this problem. To me it seems a (not too
    trivial) bug in jh_manifest. See
    http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=489214. Maybe better to
    discuss the topic there to keep this list clean...
    
    Cheers,

  - another design question, abstract static methods...so here is another general question about java...
    
    why can't you declare an abstract static method.
    
    i can envision the case (indeed i have experienced the case) where one
    would want an abstracct superclass, with an abstract method such that all
    subclasses that implement this method make that method static.
    
    basically, the abstract class declares an abstract method that should be
    static for all implementations (for example a factory method).
    
    this isn't allowed in java, and in the language specification, there is no
    reason given as to why. it is just simply stated in a single sentence
    that an abstract method cannot be static. (or it turns out even the
    implemented method).
    
    can anyone explain why this isn't allowed? (i.e. give an example that
    shows the flaws that can arise from such a situation).
    
    thanks much!

  - Timouts for RMIHi all,
    i know there are several posts, and a google search found lots of hits on this topic.
    My Problem is: Nothing works...
    
    My intension is very simple:
    Use Rmi to transmit data from a client to a server.
    In principle it works fine. My Problem are the RMI-timeouts. They are too long.
    
    I have to take into account that some "unclever Guy" pulled the network plug.
    My Client still wants to send data to the Server (call a servermethod via rmi).
    I call the method and this thread is blocked. Fine. Network is still broken.
    
    Depending on the OS of the client (windows, linux) the Timeouts vary.
    In Windows its about 20 Sec => Exception. In Linux? Years? It looks like the method never returns
    with an error.
    
    Is there a way to set the timeout for calling a method.
    (The time after the methodcall returns an error when the server isn't reachable)
    
    I tried:
    a) Setting the RMISocketFactory creating my own clientsockets having the SoTimeout set... didnt work.
    b) setting the Systems sun.rmi.transport.connectionTimeout ... didnt work
    
    Hope you can help me.
