A nice inheritance... a big java project

Hi,
Recently, I "inherited" a significant java project (3 man-years). I'm to be the new "expert".
To add to the problem of finding out how everything works, little documentation is available, only one of the original programmers is available (but busy) and the actual code is hard to seperate from the "bigger project" it was once part of.
Q:
- Are there any good UML-generation tools out there (freeware tools that actually allow you to do something useful)
- Is there some tool I can use to check witch classes actually belong to "my" project?
- Any done-this-before tips?

Recently, I "inherited" a significant java project (3
man-years). I'm to be the new "expert".Congrats! You are sailing in the same boat as many other misfortunate programmers.
To add to the problem of finding out how everything
works, little documentation is available, only one of
the original programmers is available (but busy) and
the actual code is hard to seperate from the "bigger
project" it was once part of.Sounds all so familiar!
Q:
- Are there any good UML-generation tools out there
(freeware tools that actually allow you to do
something useful)http://www.objectsbydesign.com/tools/umltools_byPrice.html
Check here :)
- Is there some tool I can use to check witch classes
actually belong to "my" project?Not sure of this. I did all the grunt work in my case. With a few shell scripts and tricks ;)
- Any done-this-before tips?

I m not able to create xml file in Java Project

hi all,
I have created one java project just to try with Ant Builder. I have created one class inside it. and now i m creating an XML file inside that project.
But as soon as i try to create the File -> New -> File and give the .xml extention of the file this gives error into the project.
Will you suggest me the solution for that?
Thanks in advance.

Assuming that you are facing this problem in NDS, here is the solution.
Go to Windows--> Preferences --> WorkBench -->File Associations
In the File Types list select *.xml
This will display the default associated XML editor as
XML Editor(default) in the bottom list box.
Click on add button near the bottom list box and select Text Editor, click Ok.You will see one more entry in the list box as "Text Editor".
Select this entry and click on the default button.
Click Ok and close the preferences dialogue.
Now create a new xml file.You wont see the error this time.
Please note that this will treat all simple xml files you will create as TEXT Files and always open with Text Editor.You can override this behaviour with right click on the file and select appropriate editor from the "Open With" context menu.
The error you are talking about is because the XML editor tries to check well-formedness and basic syntax rules for the file that you newly created, actually is a noce feature of the IDE.

[ot] A UML tool for a new Java project

I am working on the new Java project and need a UML tool to get it start. I am wondering whether anyone one can recommend such tool or not. It can be either stand alone or as an Eclipse plug-in. It shall be able to handle at least 50 classes.
Thanks.

Is it any good? I haven't tried it but we're
evaluating UML tools here and it's on my list to play
with.
PS.If you mean SDE....
I have only used the personal edition at home, and the other versions have more functionality available
My impressions, FWIW, are
- easier to use than rational rose (I find this one which I have to use at work to be a pain), although, paradoxically enough, they are not that dissimilar in appearance
- I was able to create some reasonably complex models without any problems
- easy to install and start using - no great learning curve
- I tried importing a model I had exported from rose and that did not work very well at all.
- this applies to version 2.2

Best Practices for Defining NDS Java Projects...

We are doing a Proof of Concept on using NDS to develop non-SAP Java applications. We are attempting to determine if we can replace our current Java development tools with NDS/WAS.
We are struggling with SAP's terminology and "plumbing" for setting up/defining Java projects. For example, what is and when do you define Tracks, Software Components, Development Components, etc. All of these terms are totally foreign to us and do not relate to our current Java environment (at least not that we can see). We are also struggling with how the DTR and activities tie in to those components.
If any one has defined best practices for setting up Java projects or has struggled with and overcome these same issues, please provide us with some guidance. This is a very frustrating and time-consuming issue for us.
Thank you!!

Hi Peggy,
In Component Model we divide software projects into small components.Components can use other components in well defined manner.
A development object is a part of a component that can be changed or developed in some way; it provides the component with a certain part of its functionality. A development object may be a Java class, a Web Dynpro view, a table definition, a JSP page, and so on. Development objects are always stored as sources in a repository.
A development component can be defined as a frame shared by a number of objects, which are part of the software.
Software components combine components (DCs) to larger units for delivery and deployment.
A track comprises configurations and runtime systems required for developing software component versions.It ensures stable states of deliverables used by subsequent tracks.
The Design Time Repository is for versioning source code management. Distributed development of software in teams. Transport and replication of sources.
You can also find lot of support in SDN for the above concepts with tutorials.
Refer this Link for a overview on Java development Infrastructure(JDI)

How to run a java project based on x86 Windows XP on Windows CE?

I am a freshbird of J2ME and i am very confused these days.I beg you can look this topic thoughout.

Getting an error in Java Project in SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio

Hi,
I am getting this error in my Java Project developed in SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio.
Exception occurred during launch Reason: Source locator does not exist org.eclipse.jdt.debug.ui.javaSourceLocator
Is this problem of not defining some External .jar file or problem with Eclipse?
I am developing Java Project which connects with SAP Master Data Management.
I am referring to a PDF named "How To identify identical master data records using SAP MDM 5.5

This may be because of the metadata(registry) cache when it was written out by a second instance of NWDS.
So the plug-in appears in the file system but NWDS doesn't see it in the metadata
Delete the .metadata file from your workspace and then start up NWDS. It might work.

[Urgent] using javafx object in java project

Suppose I here created a very simple java project and the main file is like below,
public class test {
    public static void main(String[] args){
            System.out.println("Hello World!");
}and in this particular java project, I need to use another javafx object which is defined as (the javafx and java file are in the same package),
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.shape.Rectangle;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.scene.shape.Circle;
var stage: Stage = Stage {
    title: "Declaring Is Easy!"
    scene: Scene {
        width: 300
        height: 250
        content: [
            Circle {
                centerX: 150 centerY: 120 radius: 80
                fill: Color.MAROON
                stroke: Color.INDIANRED
                strokeWidth: 10.0
            }, //Circle
            Rectangle {
                x: 25, y: 80 width: 250, height: 80
                arcWidth: 20 arcHeight: 20
                fill: Color.web("#6699ff")
                stroke: Color.web("#003399")
          strokeWidth: 5.0
            } //Rectangle
        ] //Content
    } //Scene
} //StageSo how could I achieve this?

Thanks for your reply.
But would you please elaborate on this sentence: create the fx class using Class.forName("....").newInstance()?
Indeed I implemented an interface which was extended by the javafx class, and in the main java file I need to write following codes to use this object,
Context context = FXLocal.getContext();
        FXClassType instance = context.findClass("packageName.JavaFXClass");
        ObjectValue obj = (ObjectValue)instance.newInstance();
        JavaInterface ji = (JavaInterface)obj.asObject();The problem that I encountered right now is, the exception was thrown at context.findClass("javatest.MyChart");, since it's not able for the compiler to find the JavaFXClass.class.
I checked the folder build\classes\packageName and noticed that both my main JavaClass and JavaInterface have been compiled with .class file, while the JavaFXClass was not, which means the file JavaFXClass.class doesn't exist.
What's the solution?

How to open java files in a java project

hi ,
i have to implement a java program analyzer and now i have implement a java parser using javaCC. My parser parse a java file at a time and i have to read and parse all java files in a java project. my idea is to enter
java project name *.jpx as an input and search java files in project and parse them one by one, or , to enter the folder path of java source files of project and parse them.
i am a beginer of java language and i don't know where to start to do it.
is there someone tell me which way is easier and better for my case and some ways to implement it. i search sample files that is similar to my case but i cannot find any.
thanks in advance.

How to Debug a Java Project in Eclipse using Tomcat6.0

Hi
Can anybody help me with the following questions.
1.How to create a java project in eclipse(I am using jsp,servlets,jsf,spring,jasper,struts).
2.How to debug my application in Eclipse Europa by putting break points.
3.how should i add Tomcat6.0 to my project in order to debug my application so that i can put break points while running the applications and observe the values.
Thanks
Bala

You may find this tutorial useful regarding to JSF, Eclipse and Tomcat: http://balusc.blogspot.com/2008/01/jsf-tutorial-with-eclipse-and-tomcat.html
To put breakpoints, just doubleclick on the left gray rule of the code, you'll get blue bullets at the left rule, indicating a break point. Run Tomcat in debug modus (rightclick Tomcat � debug). Use the Eclipse debug perspective to step in the code (window � open perspective � debug).

Open Forte for java project in Sun java studio enterprise

Hi Everyone, I am new to Java development. I have a java application developed in Forte for java 4 and I need to open and compile it in Sun java studio enterprise. Could anybody tell me how to do that? Thank you very much.

The recent versions of the IDE (starting with NetBeans 4.1 and JSE 8) are based on a more-robust project system that is ant based. Projects from Forte for Java 4, unfortunately, cannot be directly opened in JSE8, NB4.1 and later.
If you do have access to the original source code, pl. try the following in the latest version of JSE or NetBeans:
- Create a fresh project in jse using File | New Project. (For a java standalone app, you would choose General | Java Application from the dialog).
- Add the existing files to the empty project. You can do so by right-clicking on the project, selecting properties and adding the existing source directories under 'Source Packages' in 'Sources' category.
Or from the new project dialog, you could select 'General | Java Project with existing sources' option.

Using a java project in a web which is part of a ear

hi
i have an ear (jspkeepEAR) that includes a web project (jspkeep). The web project uses a java project (common).
I don't want the EAR to know about the common, so i've added the common as a j2ee module to the web project.
when publishing, i can see under
C:\bea92\user_projects\w4WP_workspaces\Untitled\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.core.resources\
.projects\jspkeepEAR\beadep\workshop\jspkeepEAR
the .beabuild.txt file:
C\:/bea92/user_projects/w4WP_workspaces/Untitled/jspkeepEAR/EarContent/APP-INF/classes = APP-INF/classes
C\:/bea92/user_projects/w4WP_workspaces/Untitled/jspkeep/WebContent = jspkeep.war
C\:/bea92/user_projects/w4WP_workspaces/Untitled/jspkeep/build/classes = jspkeep.war/WEB-INF/classes
C\:/bea92/user_projects/w4WP_workspaces/Untitled/jspkeep/build/jws/.src = jspkeep.war/WEB-INF/classes
C\:/bea92/user_projects/w4WP_workspaces/Untitled/common = jspkeep.war/WEB-INF/lib/common.jar
the problem is, when i'm surfing to a servlet in the web, i get NoClassDefFoundError for classes in the common.
I've also noticed that if i publish the web project by itself (and not as part of the ear), it works fine.
any idea?
thanks
yair
Edited by reformy at 12/12/2006 2:24 AM

Hi Yair
It appears that WLS only supports mapping a directory to a jar in APP-INF/lib/
C\:/runtime-New_configuration/Common/bin = APP-INF/lib/Common.jar
but NOT to a jar in WEB-INF/lib.
Engineering will look into it sometime to fix it.
Workaround Suggested:
As a workaround, you can include the Java/Utility project as part of the EAR and set as dependent J2EE module to the Web project.
Hope this helps.

Bug in workshop Project Properties for a Java Project !!

I have a Java project which i am trying to make work with junitee so
that i can automate my test cases. I have installed junitee as a web
application named 'junitee' and configured it no problem.
I have my JUnit test cases in Java Project named 'UnitTest'. What i want
to happen is that when i build my UnitTest project i want the resulting
JAR file UnitTest.jar copied into the WEB-INF\lib of the junitee project.
In order to do this i needed to change the project 'Build' options and
select the "Copy JAR file from Libraires to Project as" and refer to the
junitee web app as follows:-
../junitee/WEB-INF/lib/UnitTest.jar
Unfortunately when i do this and select Ok to save my changes workshop
gives me the following error:-
The JAR name contains illegal characters. Please correct the name.
However i have managed to get around this and make it work by manually
modifying my .work file by hand and not through workshop. This works and
achieves exactly what i want however it must be a bug in workshop to not
allow this through the Project Properties window !.
Else if it is deliberate then i cant see why as you should be able to
copy a JAR file to any lcoation inside the project if you wish to. I
hope this gets fixed in SP3.
