Java text massively garbled

Hi all,
I'm having some serious problems with my JAVA installation. I'm
operating Win XP SP3 and am running the latest (April, 2010) version -
JRE 6u20 of JAVA. All my applications running on JAVA (such as FreeMind)
and even JAVA window itself is completely filled with garbled text (for images please check the link below). I have tried the following
1) reinstalling JAVA,
2) updating it
3) re-installing the softwares and even
4) installing microsoft virtual machine
5) Changing screen resolution
but nothing helps.
Several hours of searching on the web and on this forum...no help.
PICS can be found here:
http://tinypic.com/r/343lusi/5
http://tinypic.com/r/tjki/5
There are no browser related problems though...no garbled text there. On
Windows, all JAVA applications are running, but with this garbled text.
So finally I am hoping someone knows why this is happening. I'd really
appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,
Flobpf

This looks similar to the symptoms I'm seeing, although I'm only getting it in a specific part of my app.

Parse Exception : java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date

I have inherited a UDF in some mapping that on the whole, works okay...
but it throws an error after mapping a few dates:
Parse Exception : java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "2010-03-18T00:00:00.000Z"
Parse Exception : java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "2010-03-23T23:59:00.000Z"

Parse Exception : java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "2010-03-23T23:59:00.000Z"
the first few map okay... then i get the exception.
the UDF is as follows:
public String convertDateTimeToUTC(String strDate, Container container) throws StreamTransformationException{
AbstractTrace trace = container.getTrace();
Date date=null;
SimpleDateFormat sdfSource = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssZ");
try{
String dt = strDate;
date = sdfSource.parse(dt);
trace.addInfo("Local Date:"+date);
SimpleDateFormat sdfDestination = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss");
strDate = sdfDestination.format(date);
catch(ParseException pe){
trace.addInfo("Parse Exception : " + pe);
return strDate;
can anyone see why this fails after successfully mapping a few fields???

the first mapping works correctly...
then we reuse the same fields to map to the additional segments.
the context is correct as it is trying to pull the same fields in... it just throw the error with the same data in the same UDF/Function Library but for different segments! :o(

as you can see from the screenshot above, the mapping works in the first instance, then fails on subsequent nodes.

Java.text.ParseException :UnparseableDate

Hi,
Iam trying to convert a String into Date and that Date in to a customized Date format...,Here it is what iam doing..
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.text.*;
public class str2date
public static void main(String[] args)
try
String mystr="01-03-2003";
     SimpleDateFormat converttodt=new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'hh:mm:ss");
     java.util.Date mydt=converttodt.parse(mystr.trim());

     catch(ParseException e)
     System.out.println(e.toString());
Error:"java.text.ParseException :UnparseableDate 01-03-2003"
Can any one help me out... URGENT...,
Thanks in Advance

Well, the problem is right in front of you. You're telling it the format of the date is going to be
yyyy-MM-dd'T'hh:mm:ss
and then you're giving it the date in a format of
MM-dd-yyyy
and wondering why it's not accepting it? If you want to input a date from one format and output it in another you need to create two SimpleDateFormat objects, one to parse the date from a String to a Date object, and a second (or reuse the first with a different parse string) to format the Date and output it as a String.

Hi,
Try this
The reason for this error is that the time format entered is not correct. It should be a date and 24-hour format expressed as mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss. For example: 07/15/10 14:30:00.
The WebLogic Server 11g documentation gives instructions for Date/Time format. For details, please refer to
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/apirefs.1111/e13952/pagehelp/Diagnosticsdiagnosticsviewmetricslogtabletitle.html
Solution
However, since you cannot open the Domain Log page again because the console hangs or reports a "Redirect Loop" error, you cannot modify this wrong time format on the console. To resolve this issue, please follow these steps:
Stop WebLogic Server.
Go to directory <Domain>/servers/<Server_Name>/data/console
Either open ConsolePreferences.xml and modify the value of startrange (and/or endrange) to a correctly formatted time, e.g. 07/15/10 14:30:00
OR
Delete ConsolePreferences.xml entirely.
Start Weblogic Server again.

Kal

Java.text.DecimalFormat Error

I have this import directive in my jsp page.
<%@ page import="java.io.*,java.sql.*;java.text.DecimalFormat" contentType="text/html;charset=windows-1252"%>
I am using Jdeveloper 9i 9.0.3.
When I compile this page from within JDeveloper I get this error for java.text.DecimalFormat
Error: 'class' or 'interface' expected
When I compile outside JDeveloper, I get NO error.
Can somebody tell me what the problem is.

I think that missing semi-colon is what's creating problems for you.

URGENT: Entering Chinese into Java Text Area

Hi,
This might be an FAQ question but some of the info I've gotten over the web so far is conflicting.
How do I allow a user to enter Chinese text into a Java Text Area (using an english keyboard)?
All my users have:
English Windows 2000 with a multilanguage pack. I cannot change this.
But, I can specify any downloads (IMEs, etc.) and I can choose whichever version of Java I desire.
Please let me know what is the simplist way to enable Chinese data entry in this environment. Let me know if I need to create my own input type :( or I can use MS Global IME) or if there are other third party chinese input types (even if they are not free).
Thank you and have a nice day.
Best Regards,
Carlos

Thanks for the note. The news was depressing - but things are much clearer now :) I would like one more clarification, though -
On the MS site, I quote
Any user who needs to input East Asian text across the language platforms of Windows Me, Windows 98, Windows 95, or Windows NT 4.0 could use Global IME.
"Note: On Windows 2000, the Global IMEs work in any application since that OS has full-featured East Asian input support built in. On Windows Millennium, Windows 98, Windows 95, and Windows NT 4.0, the Global IMEs work only in supporting applications."
When they say they say "full-featured East Asian input support built-in" does that exclude Java? If it would work, would it work with Swing or only AWT?
Any thoughts? Thanks again for your not, I would greatly appreciate it if you could help me with this clarification.
Best Regards,
Carlos

thanks in advence

I didn't take time to look through your code too closely but here is some code that might help. The pullDate method reads a string from a JTextField (textField) and tries to return a Date. If it can't format it then it returns null. It tries to format the text based on the formats listed. If it can't format the text using one then it tries the next until it runs out of them. Change the formats to whatever you like. Good luck.

Java.text.ParseException:Unparseable date

Whilst using the DBMS_XMLSave.updateXML procedure I am having problems parsing a date which is the format dd/mm/yy
I have tried to use the following procedure to set the date format :
DBMS_XMLSave.setDateFormat(updCtx,'DD/MM/YY');
Unfortunately it is not working, as the parser still does not recognise the date format, it seems to want the time element.
please may somebody advise on some possible solutions

The date formats must match java date formats not Oracle date formats. For a list of valid date formats please check http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/docs/api/java.text.SimpleDateFormat.html

Java.text.* i18n

Sorry in advance if this is not the correct area for this question. I posted this in i18n, but there doesn't seem to be a high level of activity in that group. So I'm cross-posting here in the hopes of a response to a basic question.
According to the FAQ's sun.* packages should not be used. I've been reviewing some older apps that use sun.text.*, sun.text.resources.* for i18n stuff. What packages/classes should be used instead? I'm thinking java.text.* .. but as there is no documenation on the sun.* packages I'm a bit in the dark.
Any hints/links/advice would be greatly appreciated

Are you refering to the DateFormats and Locales that
are in sun.text.resources? Yes
What classes are being used? sun.text doesn't look like anything in
java.text. DateFormatZoneData and LocaleData.

Java text editor usb

Hi i am a java student and i dont really know where this question but my question is
Is there a java text editor and java programs compiler for a usb drive?

It is possible, though a bit of a hack. You can install the JDK on your computer at home and copy the directory to your USB drive. When you want to use it at school, simply add the bin directory of the JDK to the system path and you can use the commandline to compile and run your applications.

Java.text.SimpleDateFormat with zones

Hi,
I have a log file which has a date format as below:
20091224060656.000000+060
Wondering if java.text.SimpleDateFormat would be able to parse it properly.I was seeing this API and it didnot have any exact syntax for parsing this kind of date format.
Please let me know.
Regards
Sayan

Hi,
Thank you for the response.The problem is this is one our client's log file which we are trying to parse using the java.text.SimpleDateFormat from our own java application.
Hence not sure about +060. I guess the part after the . represent the zone , please correct me.But +060 not sure what this means and I dont think java.text.SimpleDateFormat has a way to parse this.
Please let me know your comments.Uhm, you need to "tell" SimpleDateFormat what the format is, if you don't know how to interpret the format, how are you going to be able to configure SimpleDateFormat. Contact your "client" and make sure you understand the format, then look at the API docs for SimpleDateFormat and hammer out a pattern string for that format. (But I would assume that the "part after the dot" is second fragments (smaller than milliseconds but larger than nanoseconds, about half-way between, what the name for that is, I'm not sure), and that the part with the "plus" is the timezone, probably +060 is the same as +0600.) IOW, you will probably have to "preprocess" the string removing the last three digits before the "plus" and adding a 0 to the end, but that is only a guess.

Java.text

Where on the web can I find a short tutorial as to how to use java.text package?

The best place to start would be looking at the Javadoc.
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/java/text/package-summary.html
After you click on a class, most of them have examples right at the beginning of the documentation.
If that doesn't help search the forum for a specific class. I haven't seen anywhere that does examples of just the java.text package.
Hope this helps!

Java.text.SimpleDateFormat millisecond problem...

When I run this code:
java.text.SimpleDateFormat formatter = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat();
formatter.applyLocalizedPattern("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.000000");
java.util.Date date1 = formatter.parse("2001-08-14 13:49:38.000000", new java.text.ParsePosition(0) );
System.out.println("Date 1 = " + date1);
formatter.applyLocalizedPattern("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS000");
java.util.Date date2 = formatter.parse("2001-08-14 13:49:38.000000", new java.text.ParsePosition(0) );
System.out.println("Date 2 = " + date2);
The output is:
Date 1 = Tue Aug 14 13:49:38 GMT+01:00 2001
Date 2 = null
The only difference is in the localized pattern, date 1 is generated where milliseconds aren't in the localized pattern, date 2 is generated where milliseconds are in the localized pattern.
Why is date2 null????

Hi! When you use the second pattern, it appears that "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS000" is not an acceptable pattern. However, "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS" works. I'd hazard a guess that when you specify milliseconds, only three places are allowed.
If you used pattern #2 as you had specified originally, a java.text.ParseException is thrown. With the above modification, it works as expected.
Hope this helps!
Cheers!
