Need help with Manifest file for jar
I am creating an executable jar for a document management application. In the manifest file there is a Class-Path setting. I will be running this app in multiple environments and I want this Class-Path setting to read from the machines classpath. How do I do it? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Before you Jared your classes, did the classes work?
One possible solution would be to include the classes you're using within the Jar itself. But before you do that, I would re-read the Licence agreement for those classes.

When I created a jar file with the -m option to insert a list of Name headers in my manifest file, only the last one in the list shows up in the manifest file when I unjar it. What am I doing wrong?
i have used
jar command it takes whatever specified in your own manifest information file into the meta-inf 's manifest file
use jar -cvfm jarfile.jar maniinfofile.txt files.*
hope it helps !! -
Help with manifest.txt for .jar
I have two class files I'm trying to create a .jar file for:
InventoryMain.class (houses my main)
Inventory.class
Both files are in package inventorymain
Here is everything I have tried in my manifest.txt file:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Main-Class: inventorymain.InventoryMain (1st try)
Main-Class: InventoryMain (2nd try)
Main-Class: inventorymain (third try)
I use the following in command prompt:
jar cvfm Inventory.jar manifest.txt *.class (this runs and says all 3 files are included)
then when I try to run Inventory.jar I get the following error:
A window pops up labeled Java Virtual Machine Launcher with the error of "could not find the main class. Program will exit.
Anyone know what I am doing wrong? I am a student, and this is the first program I have created that uses more than one file. I have been all over the Internet to look for things I can do. I am stumped!! Anyhelp would be appreciated. Here is the beginning of my main program, if it will help someone help me.

Need help with saving file for printer
I am using Acrobat 9. I have a document with four pages. I need to save it in two files-- one file with p. 4 and 1 side by side to print on 11 x 17 paper, and the other file with p. 2 and 3 the same. The person printing does not have Acrobat so the pdf itself has to be formatted this way so they can print it. I can rearrange the pages, delete pages, and so forth, but I cannot get them to display side by side except in a "view" option.
Thanks for any help.Thanks could remember that for nothing

Need help with connecting file inputs to arrays
In this assignment I have a program that will do the following: display a list of names inputed by the user in reverse order, display any names that begin with M or m, and display any names with 5 or more letters. This is all done with arrays.
That was the fun part. The next part requires me to take the names from a Notepad file, them through the arrays and then output them to a second Notepad file.
Here is the original program: (view in full screen so that the code doesn't get jumbled)
import java.io.*; //Imports the Java library
class progB //Defines class
public static void main (String[] arguments) throws IOException
BufferedReader keyboard; //<-
InputStreamReader reader; // Allows the program to
reader = new InputStreamReader (System.in); // read the the keyboard
keyboard = new BufferedReader (reader); //<-
String name; //Assigns the name variable which will be parsed into...
int newnames; //...the integer variable for the amount of names.
int order = 0; //The integer variable that will be used to set the array size
String[] array; //Dynamic array (empty)
System.out.println (" How many names do you want to input?"); //This will get the number that will later define the array
name = keyboard.readLine ();
newnames = Integer.parseInt (name); // Converts the String into the Integer variable
array = new String [newnames]; //This defines the size of the array
DataInput Imp = new DataInputStream (System.in); //Allows data to be input into the array
String temp;
int length; //Defines the length of the array for a loop later on
for (order = 0 ; order < newnames ; order++) //<-
{ // Takes the inputed names and
System.out.println (" Please input name "); // gives them a number according to
temp = keyboard.readLine (); // the order they were inputed in
array [order] = temp; //<-
for (order = newnames - 1 ; order >= 0 ; order--) //<-
{ // Outputs the names in the reverse
System.out.print (" \n "); // order that they were inputed
System.out.println (" Name " + order + " is " + array [order]); //<-
for (order = 0 ; order < newnames ; order++) //<-
if (array [order].startsWith ("M") || array [order].startsWith ("m")) // Finds and outputs any and all
{ // names that begin with M or m
System.out.print (" \n "); //
System.out.println (array [order] + (" starts with M or m")); //
} //<-
for (order = 0 ; order < newnames ; order++) //<-
length = array [order].length (); //
if (length >= 5) // Finds and outputs names
{ // with 5 or more letters
System.out.print (" \n "); //
System.out.println ("Name " + array [order] + " have 5 or more letters "); //<-
}The notepad file contains the following names:
jim
laruie
tim
timothy
manny
joseph
matty
amanda
I have tried various methods but the one thing that really gets me is the fact that i can't find a way to connect the names to the arrays. Opening the file with FileInputStream is easy enough but using the names and then outputing them is quite hard. (unless i'm thinking too hard and there really is a simple method)By "connect", do you just mean you want to put the names into an array?
array[0] = "jim"
array[1] = "laruie"
and so on?
That shouldn't be difficult at all, provided you know how to open a file for reading, and how to read a line of text from it. You can just read the line of text, put it in the array position you want, until the file is exhausted. Then open a file for writing, loop through the array, and write a line.
What part of all that do you need help with? -

Need help with calculator project for an assignment...
Hi all, I please need help with my calculator project that I have to do for an assignment.
Here is the project's specifications that I need to do"
"""Create a console calculator applicaion that:
* Takes one command line argument: your name and surname. When the
program starts, display the date and time with a welcome message for the
user.
* Display all the available options to the user. Your calculator must include
the arithmetic operations as well as at least five scientific operations of the
Math class.
-Your program must also have the ability to round a number and
truncate it.
-When you multiply by 2, you should not use the '*' operator to perform the
operation.
-Your program must also be able to reverse the sign of a number.
* Include sufficient error checking in your program to ensure that the user
only enters valid input. Make use of the String; Character, and other
wrapper classes to help you.
* Your program must be able to do conversions between decimal, octal and
hex numbers.
* Make use of a menu. You should give the user the option to end the
program when entering a certain option.
* When the program exits, display a message for the user, stating the
current time, and calculate and display how long the user used your
program.
* Make use of helper classes where possible.
* Use the SDK to run your program."""
When the program starts, it asks the user for his/her name and surname. I got the program to ask the user again and again for his/her name and surname
when he/she doesn't insert anything or just press 'enter', but if the user enters a number for the name and surname part, the program continues.
Now my question is this: How can I restrict the user to only enter 'letters' (and spaces of course) but allow NO numbers for his/her surname??

What you could do is checking the input string for numbers. If it contains numbers, just reprompt for the Name.
AND you might want to ask yourself why the heck a calculator needs to know the users Name. -
I need help with viewing files from the external hard drive on Mac
I own a 2010 mac pro 13' and using OS X 10.9.2(current version). The issue that I am in need of help is with my external hard drive.
I am a photographer so It's safe and convinent to store pictures in my external hard drive.
I have 1TB external hard drive and I've been using for about a year and never dropped it or didn't do any thing to harm the hardware.
Today as always I connected the ext-hard drive to my mac and click on the icon.
All of my pictures and files are gone accept one folder that has program.
So I pulled up the external hard drive's info it says the date is still there, but somehow i can not view them in the finder.
I really need help how to fix this issue!you have a notebook, there is a different forum.
redundancy for files AND backups, and even cloud services
so a reboot with shift key and verify? Recovery mode
but two or more drives.
a backup, a new data drive, a drive for recovery using Data Rescue III
A drive can fail and usually not if, only when

Need Help! Bios file for Compaq SR2010NX
Hello all, I'm looking for the original bios file for the SR2010NX. HP doesn't have it on their website and my computer won't boot correctly with it. ahhhhhh. I appreciate any help!!!
Thanks JohnAccording to what I found, that has this motherboard:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00757470&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&os=2093&product=323...
Which is a A8M2N-LA Naos-GL6, is this that what you have? And what BIOS are you looking for, or should I say what did you try to put on it?
I happen to have the same motherboard on an old Compaq, so I could possibly exctact the BIOS file if it is the one you are looking for. It showes 3.00 I beleive but I will check if you need the info.

duplicate target database to ORCL NOFILENAMECHECK;
exit
When the duplication process in about to finish, i get below error:
contents of memory script:

executing Memory Script
RMAN-03002: failure of duplicate DB command at 07/31/2012 08:02:21

When i press exit, this window closes and i can run the alter database open resetlogs;+ command from a new sql prompt. I check online and some suggest there might be a window open with system user connected. Please suggest any changes in the script.
Best Regards,Hello;
Having another session with system user will cause rman to throw this error. For example another session used to start up database in nomount mode still being active.
Duriing the cloning process the rman session needs to be exclusively connected to the auxiliary instance (no other session are allowed).

request for help with rman cloning script

Crypto newb: Need help with encrypting data for offline Swing app
Hi all,
I'm VERY new to cryptography. Can somebody point me in the right direction? I've created a Swing application that is intended to be used offline (no network connections are established by the app). I need to export XML files from this application, to be transported via floppy to another instance of the application on a different computer for import. The information is sensitive and must be encrypted!
I started looking into AES and using asymmetric ciphers (public/private key encryption). But then I realized that if Jane is exporting a file for Bob to view, she won't have access to Bob's public key (no network access). Ugghh!
I noticed another solution in this forum where the person suggested using password encryption. It was an old post and I think it used DES. Anyway, password encryption doesn't seem too secure.
So, I thought I'd create a symmetic key (correct term?) once, store it in the program directory, and distribute it with the application installer. That way, everyone would have the same key and would be able to encrypt/decrypt each others files. Right? Err... I'm not sure.
Like I said, I'm a newb at crypto. If someone could suggest the best/most secure way to accomplish this, I would be eternally grateful.
PLEASE HELP!!! :-D
Thanks in advance.Sorry, Grant. I must've posted that last one just
after your response. I was intending the message to
be for Anand. Heh - you have no idea how many times I've done the same thing. It's an artifact of the asynchronous nature of message boards.
Your response is very helpful. Out of
curiosity, does my last post provide any more insight
that would change your mind? Or do you still believe
that using password encryption and letting the user
choose/provide the password is the best solution?Well, as you noted, giving everyone two sets of keypairs is semantically equivalent to giving everyone a single symmetric key. And, as I've noted, it's completely INsecure - everyone who gets access to an install disk, either legitimately or no, can read every transmission your app makes forever after. Cryptographically speaking, this is Not A Good Thing.
The advantage of PBE is that it's easy for your users to exchange keys when their machines can't see each other. The real key here is that your app, if you really want it to be secure, MUST allow/require that transmission between Alice and Bob use a different key than that between Alice and Carlos or Bob and Carlos - otherwise, if Eve compromises any user of your software, ALL users are compromised.
I'd go with PBE, just because other alternatives are painful for your end users. You could use generated KeyPairs, for example, if you provide a means for users to exchange public keys. If you display Bob's public key in encoded, String-able form, then Bob can either email that to Alice or read it off to her over the phone. Into your app Alice loads/types in that public key, and the app now knows how to secure communications with Bob.
Public keys are large, though, and people screw them up typing them in. And many users have TERRIBLE key discipline - if Bob loses access to his private key, he can't read anything Alice sends. And if his private key is readable on some public shared folder (which happens with a totally-frightening regularity), then we're back to no security at all.
Use one of the triple-DES PBE Ciphers, and get on with making your app do what you really want it to do, would be my advice. (Free advice, of course, being worth every penny you pay!)
Once again, thanks a bunch!Glad to help.

Hope you guys can help me with this.

It would help a lot if you posted the results in \ tags, as described in the forum FAQ. {message{id=9360002}
SELECT application_type as Application_type
, COUNT (CASE WHEN created_dt = sysdate-3 THEN 1 END) AS 01012012 (should be getting dynamically)
, COUNT (CASE WHEN created_dt = sysdate-4 THEN 1 END) AS 02022012
, COUNT (CASE WHEN created_dt = sysdate-5 THEN 1 END) AS 03022012
, COUNT (CASE WHEN created_dt = sysdate-6 THEN 1 END) AS 04022012
FROM table_1
GROUP BY application_type
ORDER BY application_typeThat's the bais idea.
You can simplify it a little by factoring out the date differences:WITH got_d AS
SELECT qty
, TRUNC ( dt
- ADD_MONTHS ( TRUNC (SYSDATE, 'MON')
, -1
) AS d
FROM table1
WHERE dt >= ADD_MONTHS ( TRUNC (SYSDATE, 'MON')
, -1
AND dt < TRUNC (SYSDATE) + 1
SELECT SUM (CASE WHEN d = 1 THEN qty END) AS day_1
, SUM (CASE WHEN d = 2 THEN qty END) AS day_2
, SUM (CASE WHEN d = 62 THEN qty END) AS day_62
FROM got_d
