11.1.2.1.0. or 11.1.1.6.0 (and how to migrate)
1. I am confused, which version of JDeveloper ADF and Weblogic is the right one. OTN on http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/jdev/downloads/index.html offers 11.1.2.1.0 as primary choice.
But is 11.1.2.1.0 version meant for deploy in production Weblogic server or just as predecessor for 12c for playing with?
Why I am asking this? Because I hear from Oracle people which make production deployments of Weblogic server, that it causes a lot of troubles and that only version 11.1.1.6.0 is suitable for production now.
2.What will be in the future? Will 11.1.2.1.0 and 11.1.1.6.0 evolve into 12c or what.
I don't know what to advise to my customer.
3.I started project in 11.1.2.1.0. How can be it converted to 11.1.1.6.0 ?
Sašo
Answer 1 - I have heard from customers going live successfully on 11.1.2.x so that definitely is meant for production use though only with ADF applications . SOA and webcenter is not supported in it.
Answer 2 - On roadmaps these posts will help -
Good read , though a little old!
Whats after JDeveloper 11? (Whats after JDeveloper 11? )
choosing JDeveloper 11g R1 or JDeveloper 11g R2 (choosing JDeveloper 11g R1 or JDeveloper 11g R2)

I am trying to implement some kind of a server listening for requests. The listener part of the app, is a daemon thread that listens for connections and instantiates a handling daemon thread once it gets some. However, my problem is that i must be able to kill the listening thread at the user's will (say via a sto button). I have done this via the Sun's proposed way, by testing a boolean flag in the loop, which is set to false when i wish to kill the thread. The problem with this thing is the following...
Once the thread starts excecuting, it will test the flag, find it true and enter the loop. At some point it will LOCK on the server socket waiting for connection. Unless some client actually connects, it will keep on listening indefinatelly whithought ever bothering to check for the flag again (no matter how many times you set the damn thing to false).
My question is this: Is there any real, non-theoretical, applied way to stop thread in java safely?
Thank you in advance,
LeftyThis was one solution from the socket programming forum, have you tried this??
public Thread MyThread extends Thread{
boolean active = true;
public void run(){
ss.setSoTimeout(90);
while (active){
try{
serverSocket = ss.accept();
catch (SocketTimeoutException ste){
// do nothing
// interrupt thread
public void deactivate(){
active = false;
// you gotta sleep for a time longer than the
// accept() timeout to make sure that timeout is finished.
try{
sleep(91);
}catch (InterruptedException ie){
interrupt();

Understanding problem with threads
Hi,
yesterday (at least i think it was yesterday) I posted a question in this forum, I needed help with writing a multithreaded server. The answer was simple and I wrote my program. It kinda works, but there is one thing I don't understand:
I have a class, which handles the clientconnections and one that listens for incoming conections. I pass the socket returned by ServerSocket.accept() to the clientconnection object.
There is only ONE clientconnection-object. The listener just passes the socket and calls the start() method of the clientconnection object.
The clientconnection just writes some text to the client. Connecting more than one client at the same time works too. Everything works fine. And that's what I don't get. If I have only O N E clientconnection the texttransfer shouldn't work after i connect the second client, right?
But it does, is there a mistake in my logic or am I losing my sanity? :)Hi again Danbas,
Maybe you are losing your sanity... but that's ok. :)
public void startlistening(){
while(true){
try{
clientconn cc = new clientconn(ssock.accept());
}catch(IOException ie){}
//The Constructor in clientconn would look like this:
public clientconn(Socket sock){
//No idea what to do here
Every time you perform "new", you create a new object. And you are calling new every time you accept a new socket connection. So you are creating a new clientconn object each time. -
Slight problem with threads....
Hello,
Just started learning threads a few days ago.. my objective is to move an oval from left to right, then right to left, back and forth and so on.. however, it wont work, the source code i have below seems logical, but it doesnt fulfill my objective..
// The "MovingCircleUsingThreads" class.
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class MovingCircleUsingThreads extends Applet implements Runnable
int x = 0;
Thread t;
public void init ()
t = new Thread (this);
t.start ();
} // init method
public void run ()
try
while (true)
repaint ();
Thread.sleep (20);
catch (Exception e)
public void paint (Graphics g)
int speed = 10;
Dimension d = getSize ();
g.fillOval (x, d.height / 4, 50, 50);
x = x + speed;
if (x + 50 == d.width)
speed = -10;
} // MovingCircleUsingThreads classI think the paint method is wrong, but it all seems logical.. x starts off in the left side, moves to the right side by 10, when x + 50 == d.width, the oval is at the right edge, and speed = -10, so it should be moving to the left by 10, but instead, the oval disappears.. :( can anyone help?
public void paint (Graphics g)
int speed = 10;
Dimension d = getSize ();
g.fillOval (x, d.height / 4, 50, 50);
x = x + speed;
if (x + 50 == d.width)
speed = -10;
}public void paint (Graphics g)
int speed = 10;
Dimension d = getSize ();
g.fillOval (x, d.height / 4, 50, 50);
x = x + speed;
if (x + 50 == d.width)
speed = -10;
}So you are setting speed to -10, and then you are
leaving paint?
Can not see this having any impact on processing...Im setting speed to -10 because I want the oval to go left.... But it wont, after the oval goes from left to right, it disappears..
Try changing the following:
if (x + 50 == d.width)
speed = -10;to
if (x + 50 >= d.width)
speed = -10;
Tried changing that before, oval disappears after it goes to right side :\ -
A problem with Threads and loops.
Hi, I have some code that needs to be constantly running, like while(true)
//code here
}However, the code just checks to see if the user has input anything (and then if the user has, it goes to do some other stuff) so I don't need it constantly running and hogging up 98% of the CPU. So I made my class (which has the method that needs to be looped, call it ClassA) implement Runnable. Then I just added the method which needed to be looped into the public void run()
I have another class which creates an instance of the above class (call it ClassB), and the main(String[] args) is in there.
public static void main(String[] args)
ClassA test = new ClassA();
Thread thread = new Thread(test.getInstanceOfClassA());
thread.start();
while(true)
//I do not know what to put here
try
thread.sleep(100);
catch(InterruptedException iex)
}However, the thread only calls run() once,(duh...) but I can't think of away to get it to run - sleep - run -sleep forever. Can someone help me?Hi, I have some code that needs to be constantly
running, like while(true)
//code here
}However, the code just checks to see if the user has
input anything (and then if the user has, it goes to

running and hogging up 98% of the CPU. Where does the user input come from. Are you reading from an InputStream? If so, then your loop will be blocked anyway when reading from the InputStream until data is available. During that time, the loop will not consume processor cycles.
public static void main(String[] args)
ClassA test = new ClassA();
Thread thread = new Thread(test.getInstanceOfClassA());I have never seen this idiom. If ClassA instanceof Runnable, you simply write new Thread(test).
thread.start();
while(true)
//I do not know what to put

try
thread.sleep(100);
catch(InterruptedException iex)

}You can also try to provide a greater Priority to your player thread so that it gains the CPU time when ever it needs it and don't harm the playback.
However a loop in a Thread and that to an infinite loop is one kind of very bad programming, 'cuz the loop eats up most of your CPU time which in turn adds up more delays of the execution of other tasks (just as in your case it is the playback). By witting codes bit efficiently and planning out the architectural execution flow of the app before start writing the code helps solve these kind of issues.

Hi all,
I would like to ask you for a help. I need to write a small program at my university. I started to write a midlet which function would be to countdown time for sports activities. I woul like to start a new thread - the one that counts down - and at the same time make the main thread sleep. After the "countdown" thread finishes, the main thread wakes up and waits for user input. The problem is that when the "countdown" thread finishes his work, I've got Uncaught exception java/lang/NullPointerException. error and the midlet halts.

Your Licznik class has a member m of type monitor, which has not been instantiated (in other words is null) hence, when calling m.put() you get NullPointerException. Please also mind, that using Thread.sleep(1000) is not an accurate way of measuring time.
If I may, please use recommended for Java class naming conventions - some of your names use lower case, while other don't which is confusing to the reader.

Problem with threads within applet
Hello,
I got an applet, inside this applet I have a singleton, inside this singleton I have a thread.
this thread is running in endless loop.
he is doing something and go to sleep on and on.
the problem is,
when I refresh my IE6 browser I see more than 1 thread.
for debug matter, I did the following things:
inside the thread, sysout every time he goes to sleep.
sysout in the singleton constructor.
sysout in the singleton destructor.
the output goes like this:
when refresh the page, the singleton constructor loading but not every refresh, sometimes I see the constructor output and sometimes I dont.
The thread inside the singleton is giving me the same output, sometime I see more than one thread at a time and sometimes I dont.
The destructor never works (no output there).
I don't understand what is going on.
someone can please shed some light?
thanks.
btw. I am working with JRE 1.1
this is very old and big applet and I can't convert it to something new.Ooops. sorry!
I did.
public void start() {

Problem with Threads and a static variable
I have a problem with the code below. I am yet to make sure that I understand the problem. Correct me if I am wrong please.
Code functionality:
A timer calls SetState every second. It sets the state and sets boolean variable "changed" to true. Then notifies a main process thread to check if the state changed to send a message.
The problem as far I understand is:
Assume the timer Thread calls SetState twice before the main process Thread runs. As a result, "changed" is set to true twice. However, since the main process is blocked twice during the two calls to SetState, when it runs it would have the two SetState timer threads blocked on its synchronized body. It will pass the first one, send the message and set "changed" to false since it was true. Now, it will pass the second thread, but here is the problem, "changed" is already set to false. As a result, it won't send the message even though it is supposed to.
Would you please let me know if my understanding is correct? If so, what would you propose to resolve the problem? Should I call wait some other or should I notify in a different way?
Thanks,
B.D.
Code:
private static volatile boolean bChanged = false;
private static Thread objMainProcess;
protected static void Init(){
objMainProcess = new Thread() {
public void run() {
while( objMainProcess == Thread.currentThread() ) {
GetState();
objMainProcess.setDaemon( true );
objMainProcess.start();
public static void initStatusTimer(){
if(objTimer == null)
objTimer = new javax.swing.Timer( 1000, new java.awt.event.ActionListener(){
public void actionPerformed( java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt){
SetState();
private static void SetState(){
if( objMainProcess == null ) return;
synchronized( objMainProcess ) {
bChanged = true;
try{
objMainProcess.notify();
}catch( IllegalMonitorStateException e ) {}
private static boolean GetState() {
if( objMainProcess == null ) return false;
synchronized( objMainProcess ) {
if( bChanged) {
SendMessage();
bChanged = false;
return true;
try {
objMainProcess.wait();
}catch( InterruptedException e ) {}
return false;
}Thanks DrClap for your reply. Everything you said is right. It is not easy to make them alternate since SetState() could be called from different places where the state could be anything else but a status message. Like a GREETING message for example. It is a handshaking message but not a status message.
Again as you said, There is a reason I can't call sendMessage() inside setState().
The only way I was able to do it is by having a counter of the number of notifies that have been called. Every time notify() is called a counter is incremented. Now instead of just checking if "changed" flag is true, I also check if notify counter is greater than zero. If both true, I send the message. If "changed" flag is false, I check again if the notify counter is greater than zero, I send the message. This way it works, but it is kind of a patch than a good design fix. I am yet to find a good solution.
Thanks,

Problem with threads, program always crash
new to threads, may be doing something COMPLETELY wrong. When I run the program I get a couple of NullPointerExceptions in Thread-0 and Thread-1. I'm confused because it screws up when I call size() for arrayList, and in the API size doesn't throw anything.

}finally{

}this is deadlock
*int list = 0;*
*while((list = record.size)<1) was screwing things up because of the assignment*record is ArrayList of strings. when better to use Vector instead of ArrayList? i notice no differnce and i use threads
initially I thought record.size was being evaluated and before could be assigned to list, time slice ran out. this could not be case because I use ReentrantLock (list) to lock it.

Problem with threads running javaw
Hi,
Having a problem with multi thread programming using client server sockets. The program works find when starting the the application in a console using java muti.java , but when using javaw multi.java the program doesnt die and have to kill it in the task manager. The program doesnt display any of my gui error messages either when the server disconnect the client. all works find in a console. any advice on this as I havent been able to understand why this is happening? any comment would be appreciated.
troy.troy,
Try and post a minimum code sample of your app which
does not work.
When using javaw, make sure you redirect the standard
error and standard output streams to file.
Graeme.Hi Graeme,
I dont understand what you mean by redirection to file? some of my code below.
The code works fine under a console, code is supposed to exit when the client (the other server )disconnects. the problem is that but the clientworker side of the code still works. which under console it doesnt.
public class Server{
ServerSocket aServerSocket;
Socket dianosticsSocket;
Socket nPortExpress;
ClientListener aClientListener;
LinkedList queue = new LinkedList();
int port = 0;
int clientPort = 0;
String clientName = null;
boolean serverAlive = true;
* Server constructor generates a server
* Socket and then starts a client threads.
* @param aPort socket port of local machine.
public Server(int aPort, String aClientName, int aClientPort){
port = aPort;
clientName = aClientName;
clientPort = aClientPort;
try{
// create a new thread
aServerSocket = new ServerSocket(port) ;
// connect to the nPortExpress
aClientListener = new ClientListener(InetAddress.getByName(clientName), clientPort, queue,this);
// aClientListener.setDaemon(true);
aClientListener.start();
// start a dianostic port
DiagnosticsServer aDiagnosticsServer = new DiagnosticsServer(port,queue,aClientListener);
// System.out.println("Server is running on port " + port + "...");
// System.out.println("Connect to nPort");
catch(Exception e)
// System.out.println("ERROR: Server port " + port + " not available");
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, (e.toString()),"ERROR: Server port " + port + " not available", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
serverAlive = false;
System.exit(1);
while(serverAlive&&aClientListener.hostSocket.isConnected()){
try{

Problem with Threads and "plase wait..."-Window
Hi everyone,
I have a problem that I'm not able to solve in any way... I have a time-consuming task (a file decryption) which I execute in a separate thread; I've used the SwingWorker class, like suggested by sun-tutorial, and it works right. The problem is that I have to wait that the decryption have finished before continuing with program-execution. Therefore I would like to display a "please wait"-window while the task runs. I've tryed all the possible ways I know but the problem is always the same: the waitWindow is displayed empty, the bounds are painted but the contents no; it's only painted when the decrypt-task has finished. Please help me, I have no more resources....
decrypt-file code:
public class DecryptFile {
private String cryptedFileNameAndPath;
private ByteArrayInputStream resultStream = null;
// need for progress
private int lengthOfTask;
private int current = -1;
private String statMessage;
public DecryptFile(String encZipFileNameAndPath) {
cryptedFileNameAndPath = encZipFileNameAndPath;
//Compute length of task...
// 0 for indeterminate
lengthOfTask = 0;
public ByteArrayInputStream getDecryptedInputStream() {
return this.resultStream;
* Called from ProgressBarDemo to start the task.
public void go() {
current = -1;
final SwingWorker worker = new SwingWorker() {
public Object construct() {
return new ActualTask();
worker.start();
* Called from ProgressBarDemo to find out how much work needs
* to be done.
public int getLengthOfTask() {
return lengthOfTask;
* Called from ProgressBarDemo to find out how much has been done.
public int getCurrent() {
return current;
public void stop() {
current = lengthOfTask;
* Called from ProgressBarDemo to find out if the task has completed.
public boolean done() {
if (current >= lengthOfTask)
return true;
else
return false;
public String getMessage() {
return statMessage;
* The actual long running task. This runs in a SwingWorker thread.
class ActualTask {
ActualTask () {
current = -1;
statMessage = "";
resultStream = AIUtil.getInputStreamFromEncZip(cryptedFileNameAndPath); //here the decryption happens
current = 0;
statMessage = "";
}The code that calls decryption and displays waitWindow
final WaitSplash wS = new WaitSplash("Please wait...");
final DecryptFile cryptedTemplate = new DecryptFile (this.templateFile);
cryptedTemplate.go();
while (! cryptedTemplate.done()) {
try {
wait();
} catch (Exception e) { }
this.templateInputStream = cryptedTemplate.getDecryptedInputStream();
wS.close();Thanks, thanks, thanks in advance!
EdoardoMaybe you can try setting the priority of the long-running thread to be lower? so that the UI will be more responsive...

That one's from a book. I used that code to start with my applet. Mine calls different merthod from the switch cases. Say I have:
case 0: drawStart(g); break;
public void drawStart(Graphics g){
/* something here */
drawMain(g);
public void drawMain(graphics g){
g.drawString("test", x, y);
//here's where i'm trying to pause
//i've tried placing Thread.sleep between these lines
g.drawLine(x, y, a, b);
//Thread.sleep here
g.drawRect(x, y, 50, 70);
}I also need to put delays between method calls but I need to synchronize them. Am I doing it all wrong? The application pauses or sleeps but afterwards, it still drew everything all at once. Thanks a lot!It is. Sorry about that. Just answer any if you want to. I'd appreciate your help. Sorry again if it caused you anything or whatever. .n_n.

Problem with threads and camera.
Hi everybody!
I've a problem with taking snapshot.
I would like to display a loading screen after it take snapshot ( sometimes i
have to wait few seconds after i took snapshot. Propably photo is being taken in time where i have to wait).
I was trying to use threads but i didn't succeed.
I made this code:
display.setCurrent(perform);
new Thread(new Runnable(){
public void run() {
while((!performing.isShown()) && (backgroundCamera.isShown())){
Thread.yield();
notifyAll();
}).start();
new Thread(new Runnable(){
public void run() {
try {
this.wait();
} catch(Exception e) {
exceptionHandler(e);
photo = camera.snapshot();
display.setCurrent(displayPhoto);
}).start();This code is sometimes showing performing screen but sometimes no.
I don't know why. In my opinion performing.isShown() method isn't working correctly.
Does anyone have some idea how to use threads here?Hi,
I've finally managed to work this fine.
The code:
Object o = new Object();
display.setCurrent(perform);
new Thread(new Runnable(){
public void run() {
while(!performing.isShown()){
Thread.yield();
synchronized(o) {
o.notify();
}).start();
new Thread(new Runnable(){
public void run() {
try {
synchronized(o) {
o.wait(1);
} catch(Exception e) {
exceptionHandler(e);
photo = camera.snapshot();
display.setCurrent(displayPhoto);
}).start(); -
Problem with threads communication
Hi All
I have a multithreaded application in which I have 3 threads running including main thread. One of the thread (Thread1) spawned by main thread is performing the business logic required. The other one (Thread 2) is just to send the periodic signals to an admin application that it is alive. Now I need to pass some data obtained from business logic (Thread1) to the second thread (Thread2). How can i do that.? I need the data from Thread1 to Thread2 every time, the thread2 send the alive request to admin application.
Thanks & Regards
Inder Jeet SinghSee Producer/Consumer example at for 2 threads exchanging data:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/threads/synchronization.html
In your case it seems reasonable to store data somewhere until T2 will use it during sending
alive request to admin application -
Problem with threads and graphics
I have a thread that chooses paths for a Travelling salesman problem, it then calls a TSPdraw class and passes it the path, which the class then draws. the problem is when i have two threads it creates two windows but only draws a path in one of them. any ideas where i`m going wrong
Are you using swing components? Swing isn't threadsafe. If you have multiple threads that want to update your UI you need to use the SwingUtilities.invokeLater(...)or invokeAndWait(...). There is a page in the swing tutorial about this at: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/misc/threads.html
