  - Sun's OpenJDK in Debian?Hi,
    
    I'm surprised that this wasn't discussed already in the past on this list
    (or in the BTS of some important java packages), but what is the status
    of Sun's Java architecture in Debian?
    
    It is licensed under GPL2 and should be compatible with DFSG.
    
    As far as I know only a few components are not yet freely available,
    especially all which are subject to the Assembly Exception
    (http://openjdk.java.net/legal/exception-modules-2007-05-08.html,
    http://www.sun.com/software/opensource/java/faq.jsp).
    
    Is this the main blocker for accepting OpenJDK in Debian? Would it be
    possible to just omit the binary modules or to replace these with free
    implementations from other free projects?
    
    Please CC: me.

  - JMF, FrameAccess, sound, faster processingI used JMF's example class FrameAccess to process audio/video files. The
    Processor processes data according to the frame rate specified in the file.
    
    1. Is there a way to do this processing faster? I don't want to view (and listen
    to) those vids, just process them. I'm ready to use 100% of the CPU if need be.
    
    2. As the file is processed, a sound is generated and can be listened to through
    a sound card's output. Is this entirely necessary? I'm asking because I want to
    process files simultaneously and that would result in a cacophony. Besides, say
    I want to listen to my own music while the processing takes place.
    
    3. How does one extract sound from a video file? Can it be extracted as a whole?
    Can it be broken down into chunks according to extracted image frames? How? In
    which formats? I'm stuck in an implementation of Codec interface, much like
    JMF's example PreProcessCodec.java, but with AudioFormat (supported ins and
    outs), so I can access a sound frame through a Buffer, but I don't know how to
    proceed.
    
    Thanks for any insight.

  - \n troublesOK, again I have troubles dealing with String. I have a field of the type
    String which contains some text that is separated into lines at random
    places, or in other words, the text contains \n\r (or \n in the case of
    linux). I write this field into a file and there it looks ok, but when I
    read it back I get the whole string in one line. So I figured I'd add a
    separator at the end of each line. However, then I get an empty line after
    each line! I'm using GZIP to pack the data, so perhaps that is causing this?
    Btw. after each block of text I write an end-of-block string to know that
    it's the end of that block.
    Here's the explanation in code:
    
    String notes = ""; // the result
    String lin = ""; // used to read one line from the file
    final String eob = "---$#-||-"; // end of block
    lin = filein.readLine(); // I'm reading the 1st line
    
    while (lin.compareTo(eob) != 0) {
    notes += lin + System.getProperty("line.separator");
    lin = filein.readLine();
    if (lin == null) { break; } // this will never occur, but just in case
    }
    return notes;
    
    //-------------
    // filein is a BufferedReader
    // I can't change that, don't ask why, and
    // because of that this is how I read a file
    filein = new BufferedReader(
    new InputStreamReader(
    new BufferedInputStream(
    new GZIPInputStream(
    new FileInputStream("testFile.gz"))))));
    
    I figured I could erase one empty line after the reading-in is done, but I'm
    not sure if this will happen in every case, on every computer. I'm thinking
    it could be an anomaly for Windows files.
    Anyway, I'm waiting for some suggestions ;)

  - commons-logging: runtime change of propertiesHi,
    
    I try to use commons-logging with the logs methods of J2SE 1.4.2 to
    generalize the logging in my appl.
    
    Doesn't exists a method to upload the defaul file properties of J2SE
    at run time and not usig the -D option at startup?
    
    Exists e method to change the propeties of the logger at runtime? for
    example the output file path...

  - Question regarding Java's OOP implementation.According to Wikipedia, one of the core concepts of OOP is
    Encapsulation; being defined as follows: "ensuring that users of an
    object cannot change the internal state of the object in unexpected
    ways; only the object's own internal methods are allowed to access its
    state. Each object exposes an interface that specifies how other
    objects may interact with it. Other objects will rely exclusively on
    the object's external interface to interact with it." Not that I
    regard Wikipedia's definition of OOP as the leading authority, it just
    happens to be handy and provides a definition that fits my own ideas.
    On to the question; If I create a class called AClass and inside
    declare a class level variable with the private modifier and some other
    methods, e.g.
    
    public class AClass {
    
    private int number;
    
    public AClass(int num) {
    number = num;
    }
    
    public void setAnotherAClass(AClass anotherAClass, int num) {
    anotherAClass.number = num;
    }
    
    public int getAnotherAClass(AClass anotherAClass) {
    return anotherAClass.number;
    }
    
    public void display() {
    System.out.println("Number: " + number);
    }
    }
    
    And a class to test AClass:
    
    public class Test {
    
    public static void main(String[] args) {
    
    AClass one = new AClass(1);
    AClass two = new AClass(2);
    
    one.display();
    two.display();
    
    one.setAnotherAClass(two, 3);
    two.display();
    }
    }
    I would expect the compiler first to complain that number has private
    access in AClass... Barring that I'm not sure what I'd expect it to
    complain about, but something doesn't seem right. Child classes
    derived from AClass were not able to make changes to objects of type
    AClass which is what I would expect. But because one and two are
    distinct objects the fact that they belong to the same class shouldn't
    mean they can change each other's private instance variables. I
    wasn't able to find anything directly relating to the question in an
    hour or so of Googling. I also read through Java's tutorials on OOP to
    see if they had anything specific to say, which they did not.
    
    Thank you for your time and ideas.

    Oh, it was just a quick example, there supposed to be done something
    with myvalue later in the loop. The point was, myvalue is only needed
    inside the loop and not outsite.
    
    int myvalue=0;
    for (int i=0;i<10;i++) {
    myvalue=calculate(i);
    .. do something with myvalue
    }
    .. myvalue no longer needed
    
    for (int i=0;i<10;i++) {
    int myvalue=calculate(i);
    .. do something with myvalue
    }
    ..my value not needed anymore
    
    I believe this example is somewhere on the web too, but I forgot where
    (probably javasoft.com or javaworld.com).

  - Action or Subclass method?I need to know which is the PROPER way of handling this situation:
    
    I would like to be able to cascade all the JInternalFrames in a
    JDesktopPane.
    
    Should I create a
    
    1) cascade() method in a subclass of JDesktopPane? or
    
    2) create a CascadeAction (a subclass of AbstractAction) and pass a
    reference of the JDesktopPane?
    
    Both ways work. HOWEVER, which is the PROPER Object Oriented solution?

  - Passing large C buffers to Java (via JNI) without copying?I'm trying to determine whether this is even possible... I have a
    _very_ large buffer malloc'd on my C heap that I would like to hand
    over to Java, preferably as a Byte[]. So far, every example of this
    that I have come across involves _copying_ the data from my C buffer
    into java storage. Is there any way to avoid this expensive (very
    expensive in my case) operation?

    It's the princple of least surprise. When you design something, you want
    to surprise your users as little as possible. To me, it's quite surprising
    that 5 refers to June and not May, for example. For array-indices, starting

    quite surprising as well.

  - Opening Image files with IE as default always ( using Browser Launcher)Hi,
    I have downloaded some image files by connecting to a URL and I am
    trying open that image file using BrowserLauncher.
    I am using windows xp and the default one to open image files is
    windows picture and Fax Viewer.
    I could not see the image in Internet Explorer when I am trying to
    open the image files. But when I set in the properties of image files
    from "windows picture and Fax Viewer" to "Open with internet
    Explorer", I could see the image.
    
    Some trasfer details..
    File Type : .jpg
    HTTP/1.0 200 Ok
    MIME-version: 1.0
    Content-Length: 297362
    Content-type: application/jpg
    
    I tried to change in http headers , but could not succeed in opening
    the image.
    can anybody suggest me that,
    I change the properties of the image file ( or http headers) such that
    it should be open with internet explorer by default,after the image
    downloaded.
    
    Any suggestions or help is appreciated.

  - RSA ciphered streams problemHi. I've got a problem with the RSA ciphered streams. Here is a piece of
    code that generates an exception :
    
    KeyPairGenerator gen = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance("RSA");
    System.out.print("Generating the RSA key pair...");
    KeyPair kp = gen.generateKeyPair();
    System.out.println("done.");
    Cipher ci = Cipher.getInstance("RSA");
    ci.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE,kp.getPublic());
    Cipher cid = Cipher.getInstance("RSA");
    cid.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE,kp.getPrivate());
    CipherOutputStream cout = new CipherOutputStream(new
    FileOutputStream("rsa.dat"),ci);
    ObjectOutputStream oout = new ObjectOutputStream(cout);
    oout.writeObject(kp.getPrivate().toString());
    oout.flush();
    oout.close();
    CipherInputStream cin = new CipherInputStream(new
    FileInputStream("rsa.dat"),cid);
    ObjectInputStream oin = new ObjectInputStream(cin); // Exception here
    System.out.println(oin.readObject());
    oin.close();
    
    The exception is EOFException and it's not very weird because the file
    "rsa.dat" is empty after writing to it!! It happens only if object is "big"
    ( when I try to write some short String, for example, everything's ok ).
    When I tried to write an unciphered output ( without using
    CipheredOutputStream ) it went well of course.
    My question is : can anybody tell me why it happens? What should I do to
    write "big" objects to ciphered output stream using ObjectOutputStream
    properly?
    Thanks for any requests.
    
    Kuba

The views in Eclipse aren't initially as elaborate as those under WSAD,
but you can change that;
http://help.eclipse.org/help31/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.platform.doc.user/gettingStarted/qs-02e.htm

  - JProgressBar bar not showing up till completeHi thanks for reading.
    
    Im sure the answer to this is simple, it just eludes me at this point.
    
    Im tring to use a progress bar to simply show the progress of 55 files
    being created and saved to disk. However when I use the JProgressBar
    in my code, it only shows up when the task is completed... Obviously I
    need it to be shown updating the entire time, seems like im missing
    something pretty basic.
    
    heres the code for your perusal, the updates occurs later in the code,
    but since its not showing up until it is completed I believe the error
    is here + Thanks! :
    
    //start up progress FRAME
    JFrame jfrProgress = new JFrame("Creating Movie...");
    Container contentPane = jfrProgress.getContentPane();

  - java access to USB MAC OS XI have a simple requirement at this point an Apple MAC OS X - that is
    to detect the presence or lack of a USB device from java.
    
    I have read about JSR 80, javax.usb, jUSB and all indicate not
    available in Mac OS X.
    I also know that in linux, I can do a "cat /proc/bus/usb/devices" and

    Now Mac OS X is "linux" - yet there doesn't appear to be /proc/dev/...

  - Problem accessing Windows clipboardHi
    
    In my java program I have a class which contains some code which accesses
    the Windows clipboard.
    
    When I use this class in a standalone application (JFrame) I can retrieve
    data from the clipboard no problem.
    
    When I use this very same class in a JApplet which I run in Internet
    Explorer, I cannot get the data from the Windows clipboard.
    
    The line of code that my JApplet gets hung up on is ...
    
    Clipboard cb = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemClipboard();
    
    This line of code does execute properly when executed in the standalone
    application.
    
    My class does contain the line: import java.awt.datatransfer.*;
    
    I am using the following page from the Java Developer's Almanac as a
    reference.
    
    http://javaalmanac.com/egs/java.awt.datatransfer/ToClip.html
    
    is there a known issue with this sort of thing that I don't know about?
    
    Hopefully I have provided enough information for you.

  - Eclipse debugging hanging, causing network problemsHi,
    
    I'm new to Eclipese, and last time I used Java heavily was six years
    ago, so may be new to Java as well.
    
    I could install and run Eclipse well, but debugging gives a problem;
    after a few (say, 5-10) debugging sessions, the debugger does not
    start in the usual way, but gets stuck at launching stage. The status
    bar shows "Launching (95%)" and takes minutes to continue from there.
    The app is a local java program, very small stuff - a couple of seconds
    to run, no network connections etc. If I let the IDE to get past the
    launching stage it gives me a debug session, but its either stuck
    without running, or extremely slow to run.
    
    Strangely, after this happens, I get other network problems as well -
    such as google toolbar (in firefox) being slow to respond etc; The only
    remedy is to reboot the machine, and when rebooting, several network
    related apps fail to close down and I have to terminate them. I believe
    I have reasonably verified that the cause is not an independent network
    issue but something associated with the debugger.
    
    .metadata/.log file shows many errors associated with
    org.eclipse.jdi.internal, including org.eclipse.jdi.TimeOutException s.
    
    My questions:
    1. is this issue known (although I couldn't see anything on the web)
    and if so, how can I fix it?
    2. Can I setup eclipse to use shared memory transport instead of socket
    transport for debugging?
    
    Thanks for your time,

  - which vs thatI am writing documentation, and I dawned on me that I don't know the
    difference between "which" and "that". I have a vague intuition which
    to use, but there is no logic behind it.
    
    In fact I don't think I could define the difference between
    what, which and that.
    
    I suspect "which" has to do with picking one from a small set, where
    "that" provides an algorithm for inclusion.

  - finding text in formatted JTextPane by using scannerHello I'm trying to create a program, which reads text from a text
    file, by using a scanner, finds definitions for particular phrases,
    depending on a rule list and stores the data in a list, by using
    objects. For example, there is a rule list with the rules : is
    /sentence, means /sentence, is referred to /sentence. If the user
    insert the term Hypertension, then there will be a search on the
    textfile by using the scanner, find the sentences that contain the
    expressions from the rulelist and store them in objects ( Hypertension
    is referred to blah blah blah). Each time I create an object, I store
    to it the index where the sentence starts and where the sentence ends..
    
    Now the hard part. I display the data in a jlist. They are of the form:
    sentencestart, sentenceend,sentence. I need when a user clicks on an
    object of this list, a JPane window to popup with the original text
    (formatted) and highlight the sentence. The problem that I have is that
    while I am using scanner to retrieve the words, it doesn't count the
    line return character. So each time I save the place the sentence
    starts and ends, it doesn't take in consideration the line return
    characters. That leads the program to highlight wrong characters in the
    JTextPane.
    
    Is there any way, when I use the scanner, each time it finds a line
    break or return character to take it in consideration?
    
    Thank you... :)

    Hmm. The point of reading the references might not be to learn
    Smalltalk, but to get a different perspective. After having used
    Objective-C, C++, Python, and Java (not in that order) I think the
    perspective of reading/using other languages is important. It
    influences the programmer, and even suggests there may be better
    languages to solve problems in than the ones they already use.
    
    I don't think most Java programmers' investment in Java is so frail that
    reading a Smalltalk book would shatter their world view. Perhaps it
    would simply give them another perspective on their own class designs.
    Same reason some people read editorals from multiple political viewpoints.

  - J2ME . How do I start?Hello,
    
    I need to write an application for MIDP 2.0 phones. Once I write the
    application, will it work on every phone that supports MIDP 2.0? What is
    the best way to get started? Which tools should I use? Any online tutorial
    videos or good books? Thanks a lot.
    
    T.I.

  - resolving class loaderHi,
    
    I'm working in an environment with many class loaders. A code in some
    class, creates a data for me to persist. In order to read it back, I
    must find the right class loader to use. In a simple scenario, if all
    the data came from one jar, I could just keep the url to that jar. But,
    if the data comes from various jars (say the class loader is a war
    class loader, so it has reference to 3rd party libraries), then how can
    I resolve it when loading the data? Meaning, what keys do I need to
    persist so that I can find the same class loader when reading the data?
    
    Thanx,
    Ittay

  - YourKit Java Profiler 2.1 Beta 2 ReleasedChanges in build 304:
    - IDE integration: Eclipse is supported under Linux
    - New agent parameter 'onexit' allows to automatically capture
    snapshots on profiled application exit. See bundled documentation for
    details.
    - New agent parameter 'debugcompat' added as a workaround for JVM bug
    that causes hangup of profiled application launched in remote debug
    mode (happens, for example, when Debug is used in IntelliJ IDEA 4.x).
    See bundled documentation for details.
    - Percents as well as absolute values are shown in CPU and memory
    views
    - IDE integration: navigation to source code is supported for Eclipse
    (if you have previous build installed, please run 'Tools | Integrate
    with IDE...' again to install the new plugin)

  - Database insert taking a long time and causing 500 errorHi,
    
    My requirement is as follows:
    
    Server: Websphere
    Framework: Struts
    
    A user will upload excel file. Excel file will have several rows. For
    each row, I need to insert one row in oracle database table. And
    finally success message is to be shown to the user.
    
    I read the excel file in action class and call a oracle procedure to
    insert the records to database.
    
    The issue is that when the size of excel file is large (containing
    several records), it is taking a long time to complete insertion and
    it shows Internal Server 500 error on the browser. Passing small set
    of records to procedure is also not helping.
    
    I think since there is no response from the app server to the client,
    this error is coming. Can anybody suggest how to solve this problem?
    
    Thanks in advance,
    Palak
