- Child question + illegal start of expression errorI have a form with a question and child questions
eg q1 program - Yes/no
q2 web; desktop
q3 java; .net; #C
My form is:
Q6a: Waterproblem (yes/NO)
Q6b: Current - radiobutton (curent, 1-5 years)
Q6c: Location Home (yes/No); Garden (Yes/No); common (yes/no)
If user selects Q6a = Yes (1)
....
Q6c Home (0/1); Garden (0/1); common (0/1)
I want to check, if user selects Yes for Q6a, then they need
select 1 from Q6c.
If they don't select one choice, want to have a simple error warning.
Yes = 1 No = 0
The code shows an illegal start of expression error????

- linking from one portlet to another portlet in the same pagehi,
I am running bea portal 4.0. I designed a page with two portlets. The left
portlet has some url links. When the user clicks on a link the content of
the right portlet shall be updated. So can anyone tell me if it is possible
to do that or do I have to look for a different solution.

- reading & writing in serial port from serverHello to everybody,
I've done an application that draws in a frame the trajectory of a
robot. The robot position is readed through the serial port, and
several commands are wrote through the same port to change the
direction of the robot.
The trajectory frame is managed by an applet, and the project works
good when the applet is called by a html document allocated in the
same local machine under W98 where the classes and the serial port
are.
But my intention is now that the serial port is going to be in a
server machine under Linux, and the users will connect with the frame
through internet. And these are the questions:
1.- If the same application that works in a local machine is called by
these users, will it operate with the serial port of the server or the
serial port of the user PC?
2.- With the traditional applets can the users see the trajectory in
the frame with the readed data from the server serial port and operate
through the hmtl document in order to write in the server serial port?
Thanks in advance, and I hope anybody could help me in this trouble.
Bye.

- problem on Get methodHello,
I don't manage to call the method "get" from the class List in the
package java.util
I wrote this :
// addrs is a parameter of the method
cls_list = env->GetObjectClass(addrs);
if(cls_list != NULL)
std::cerr<<"class ok "<<std::endl; // OK
mid = env->GetMethodID(cls_list, "get", "(I;)Ljava/lang/Object");
if( mid != NULL )
std::cerr<<"mid ok " <<std::endl;
It seems JNI doesn't find the "get" method.
I don't understand why ?
could someone help me ?
thanks in advance

- Can someone PLEASE help me??I have posted to this newsgroup before about this problem, but it sadly
remains unresolved successfully for me, and that is the proper package
structure for a servlet! Now, in the package statement at the top of the
servlet file, and assuming that I am using Tomcat for my servlet container,
should the path be something like "C:\tomcat
5.0\webapps\[context-folder]\web-inf\classes\[org\steve\burrus]" where the
compiled servlet class file "resides"??! And, re. the web.xml file, i.e.,
the web descriptor file, should the contents of the <servlet-class> tag
"mirror" the end of that path above, "org\steve\burrus" appended in front of
the servlet class name? I tell you what, I am getting quite sick and tired
of always seeing that "blasted" old 404 server error page every time that I
try/attempt to execute a Java servlet. It's "driving me nuts" when I have to
see this. I will bet that some in this group, with all that they know about
servlets, NEVER see this page. Thanx in advance for any help that I may get.
(Some day I will get it right with servlet packaging, but it is certainly
not today).

- How to mandate license expiry dateHi!!!
The product which i am working on requires that it can be installed
and used for a stipulated number of days from the date of
installation. Also if its installed on one machine then uninstalling
and reinstalling it on the same takes care of counting the days from
first installation and not the latest installation. Hence system date
time check is not useful in this context. Thus like many software
evaluation copies it must work strictly on license validity periods.
Issues to be tackled are :
- Stamp the isntallation date somewhere such that it persists the
subsequent installtion and uninstallation of the software. - How to do
it?
- Check the days passed since installation. Here i must check with
the date of first installation which was stamped. - Accessing stamped
date is a problem?
- Most importantly changing the system date must not affect my
license expiry checks.
One solution which i found was to keep a registry key to store the
installation date which persists the uninstallation of the software.
But this i perceive shall involve JNI(I am not sure about it, Any
inputs would be of great help). I would prefer to avoid using JNI.
Please let me know if the problem i am facing needs more
clarification. Any inputs towards solution of this problem would be of
great help.
thanks and regards.

- How to query a Date Column in SQLHi,
I'm sorry if this is a very noddy question, but I seem to have a block
on how to do this...
I am in the process of refactoring a Java application which uses JDBC
to talk to Oracle and MySQL. The old way used to have a DateTime
field that was represented in the database as a text field, a typical
query on this field would be: "Select * from Table1 where DateTime <=
'2004/08/17 09:00:30'".
In the new database schema, the DateTime field is represented as a
Date field. My problem is that I have to parse my query text (which
is not SQL :( ) and create a String from that, which is valid SQL.
This happens in a different part of the application to the actual
database connection, so I cannot use a PreparedStatement and insert
the java.sql.Date value that way. I have found some information about
sql date operators such as DATEDIFF, but not enough to make use of
them, and I was not sure if these would work through the JDBC driver
even if I managed to get them working...
I would be very grateful for any information anyone has on this - I
can't believe it is as difficult as I have found it today to create a
data query SQL string!
Many thanks,
Laura

- jni to optimize a java application using native mathematical librariesHi,
I've built an application, nn and simulation with a lot of
visualization , in java, now my computational needs are exceeding the
power of my system.
I usually used the observer pattern to listen to changes on the data
model, and the visualization only redraws if needed and isn't
synchronized with the numerical compuation.
However i read matrix data inside my paint methods.
Can i use jni and an optimized native library to implement the
numerical elaboration?
Doing so, will my visualization code be preserved and reused?
Will my system perform better?
I think that much of the matter is in the grain of jni interface and
data exchanged between the 2 systems.. but I've not the experience to
give you all data without a little preliminary help.
So this data are only to describe the problem in general. I'll give the
details that you tell me are needed

No problem. Thank-you for taking it so well :).

Sure. While similar in syntax to C/C++ style #import statements,
include statements are more of a namespace issue than telling a Java
source file what actual files to include.
The ability to find a particular class (or set of classes) is handled
by your CLASSPATH statement (and by your compiler through its boot
classpath, which automatically knows about the standard classes and
standard extensions). Thus the Java include statement isn't to tell the
compiler where the files should be found, or even what files to use --
it just ensures that the compiler will know what namespaces to
automatically search at compile time.
Java promotes a strong namespacing through the use of /packages/.
Packages are abstract containers in which classes and other packages
(and in some cases resources) reside. For example, most of the core
Java classes live inside the "java" package tree, within various
subclasses that group like classes together. Thus I/O classes are in
"java.io", utility classes are in "java.util", and core language classes
(like the Class class and the Object class) are in "java.lang".
To properly reference an object, you need to refer to it using it's
fully-qualified name, which includes the pagkage name. Thus, if you
want to refer to the InputStream class in the java.io package, you'd use:
java.io.InputStream
As you'll probably realize immediately, this can get really painful if
you have to do this with each and every class your program may
reference. You'd probably want to avoid even using packages if you had
to type all of this out all the time, particularily if your package tree
is deep (for example, in my Open Source Java project, the jSyncManager
(http://www.jsyncmanager.org), we have a class named
org.jSyncManager.API.Protocol.Util.StdApps.AddressAppBlock -- quite the
lengthy name to have to type everytime you need to reference this
class). This is where the import statement comes in.
The import statement allows you to tell the compiler what packages to
search in for classnames where you _don't_ specify the fully-qualified
package/class name. Thus, if I'm working in a class that references
java.io.InputStream 15 times, instead of typing "java.io.InputStream"
all 15 times, I can instead "import java.io.InputStream", and reference
just "InputStream" each time. The compiler will then be able to figure
out what InputStream I'm referencing.
There are some exceptions to this, of course. First off, "java.lang"
is _always_ automatically imported, so you don't have to do this in
every class file you write. The other main exception is that the
current package that your class belongs to will _always_ be searched for
the relevent named class first -- which means you don't have to import
the current package either (you can define what package your class is in
using the "package <name>" statement at the beginning of your source
file, ie: "package org.jSyncManager.API.Protocol.Util.StdApps;").
There is another form of the import statement, one where you don't
specify a specific class name, but instead import _all_ of the classes
in the package. this is done using "*", ie:
import java.io.*;
This will "import" everything in java.io -- thus whenever you reference
a class with just its name (and not it's package), the compiler will
search _all_ of java.io for the classname at compile time.
These namespace issues are important to know, because they're in use
everywhere in Java. There are even rules as to how you should create
your own package names, by using your internet domain name /backwards/,
followed by whatever naming you desire. The actual rules are in section
6.8 and 7.7 of the Java Language Specification. You can read them here:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/second_edition/html/names.doc.html#73307
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/second_edition/html/packages.doc.html#40169
One thing to note: some people will tell you that the spec requires
the use of only lower-case characters in package names. This is _not_
true (as you can see in the very first example in the spec). The only
case rules are that the top-level-domain must be lowercase, and by
convention classnames _always_ start with an uppercase character.
One last URL on the subjest -- the JLS's sections on use of the
"import" statement (s7.5.1 and s7.5.2):
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/second_edition/html/packages.doc.html#26699
Finally, as I mentioned above, I maintain an Open Source Java project.
It's pretty big, but we pride ourselves in keeping our code clean,
organized, and well documented. If you want to peruse it as a large
example (over 150 classes), feel free. You can view the sources online at:
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/jsyncmanager/source/
This will start you just outside the top-level package (which is the
TLD of our domain name, "org"). Feel free to find a source file and
look at its package and import statements.
> Thanks in advance!
No problem. Welcome to the wonderful world of Java :).

}
}
+++++++
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.

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

- 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 !

- 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

- 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.

- 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,

- 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.

- 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
bash shell
All of my scripts are running except tho one in which i am using diff
command.
I am using simple diff command. My script is
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#/bin/sh
if [ $# -eq 0 ];
then
echo "Usage: newFile oldFile outputFile"
exit
fi
FILE1=$1
FILE2=$2
OUTPUT_FILE=$3
echo "diff -c $FILE1 $FILE2 > $OUTPUT_FILE"
#diff -c $FILE1 $FILE2 > $OUTPUT_FILE
diff -c $FILE1 $FILE2 > $OUTPUT_FILE
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And I am also consuming the error and output streams so not blocking
the process.
the process returns with exit value > 0.
It would be a great help to me. If you help me solve this problem.
-Thanks,
Ratnesh.

- 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.
