Adding "\b" to a string. Please help!

I can't get to add "\b" (backspace) to a string.
When I try to print the string, "\b" shows up as a square.
It's a java applet, and import is "import java.applet.*;"
Please help fast, I appreciate greatly!

I can't get to add "\b" (backspace) to a string.Why would you want to? Why not just delete the last character?
When I try to print the string, "\b" shows up as a square.Print it on what? Clearly on something that doesn't understand backspace.
It all seems pointless to me.
It's a java applet, and import is "import java.applet.*;"Entirely irrelevant except that it tells us this is a GUI, and GUIs don't understand backspaces, and you don't 'print' to a GUI, you display, and why you aren't just deleting the final character remains a mystery.
Please help fastThe speed of the responses here depends on other people's time allocations, not yours.

Sort a string :: Please help.

Hello Everyone,
I am having this very simple problem of sorting a String. please help.
     static String sortString(String str){
          List list = Arrays.asList(str);
          Collections.sort(list);
          for(int i=0, n=list.size();i<n;i++){
               System.out.println(","+ list.get(i));
The function is supposed to take a String and sort it & print it out. This should be simple. Where am I making mistakes? Please help!!

Problem in comparision of two strings.please help..

I am retriving a string password from database and another string from html(user entered one).when i am printing those two strings its printing same strings.But whenever i am comparing strings and printing its not showing equal it is printing as false.what might be the reason.please help me regarding this.Thank you in advance.My cosing is as follows:
while(rs.next())
pwd=rs.getString("password");
System.out.println("pmfg is..."+pwd);
System.out.println("first string..."+pwd);
System.out.println("second string..."+loginpwd);
if(pwd.equals(loginpwd))
System.out.println("true.....");
else
System.out.println("false....");

once you got two string objects ......forget for where they are comming (database or html0 ....focus on those objects ....do the following
1) use trim() function on both strings which removes the whitespaces from front and end
2) use equalsIgnoreCase
if the problem still persists ....then forget your code and sue the SUN people

Converting a long to a string (PLEASE HELP)

I am trying to convert a long to a string so that I can put it into a vector. I have this:
long fileSize = 0;
String fileModDate = null;
Vector fileList = new Vector();
~~~~~~~
File [] files = myDir.listFiles();
for (int i = 0; i<files.length; i++){
fileSize = files.length();
String s = fileSize.toString();
//do the same for the mod date
fileModDate = files[i].lastModified();
When i try this, i get an error that long can not be dereferenced. Can anyone please help?

There are two ways to solve this problem. You are trying to convert a primative type to a string without using its wrapper function (Long). So if you created a long variable as a (Long) object you could call its toString() method and this would work...
The other way is to simply use the static method in the String class valueOf(long) as follows:
String longString = String.valueOf(i);Hope this helps.

Error message when adding video to premiere pro, please help!

Hi there,
Every time I try and add a video to premiere pro I get an error message "There was an error decompressing audio or video." I made the video in After effects and it plays just fine but I wanted to add sound to it in premiere pro. The file is mpeg movie, I can get more info if needed, just let me know. I am not very experienced at all in adobe but i'm learning so if someone could please help, that'd be awesome? P.S i'm using a MAC

You're welcome.
I've never visited Paris but it is on my list.
I don't believe the 10.4.4 Update had anything to do with this. I also have a .Mac account and I didn't experience any problems sending with any of my accounts and different SMTP servers after installing the Update.
Something to try.
Go to the SMTP server settings for the .Mac SMTP server and in the Server Port field, enter 587 in place of 25 and when finished, select OK to save the changed setting.
Test if this resolves the problem.
Having the SSL warning message is odd if Use SSL is not selected for the SMTP server and if using 587 as the server port doesn't resolve the problem, this may be a Mail.app preference file problem which is the file that stores all account settings.

Hi Monica, Thanks for you patience with me.
I have tried writing a selection sort method but am having some errors. Could you kindly have a lookand correct me please.
This is the code i wrote
public static void selectionSort(Comparable [] data)
          String strFirstName;
          String strLastName;
          Comparable temp;
          for(int i = 0; i < lastName.length; i++)
               lastName = index;
               for (int j = i; j < lastName.length; j++)
                    if (lastName[j].compareTo(lastName) < 0)
                         lastName[j] = lastName[i];
               //Swap the string values
               temp = lastName[j];
               lastName[j] = lastName[i];
               lastName[i] = temp;

Adding binary numbers in java please help!!

Hello all, im a total newbie to java and i need your help urgently, i have two variables
that are integers, that store binary numbers i.e.
int tmpIntOne, tmpIntTwo;
tmpIntOne = 1010;
tmpIntTwo = 1110;
i want to add these numbers together and return a binary result so far when you add them together you get:
2120
however i would like a binary result so that
result = tmpIntOne + tmpIntTwo;
= 11000
Thank you.

Hello all, im a total newbie to java and i need your
help urgently, i have two variables
that are integers, that store binary numbers i.e.
int tmpIntOne, tmpIntTwo;
tmpIntOne = 1010;
tmpIntTwo = 1110;These are not binary numbers. These are decimal numbers whose digits consist of ones and zeros. If you want to interpret the characters "010" as a binary number, then do
int tmp1 = Integer.parseInt("1010", 2);
etc.
i want to add these numbers together
int result = tmp1 + tmp;
and return a
binary result Adding two ints will give an int. Int's are always binary. If you want to display it as a binary String, as opposed to the usual decimal String, then, as suggested, use toBinaryString.

Compairing strings please help

how would i compare this string to an int:
if(response.equals (1))
                                        System.out.println("good choice");
     else
                                        System.out.println("please enter 1 , 2 ,3 as your answer");
     }

At the risk of stating the obvious, your not comparing strings.
if(response.equals(1) ) // is wrong!
it should be
if ( response.equals("1") )
It might help if you read the documentation on the equal() method in java.lang.String

Would help if I could get some comments on the above.

There is a requirement that I use the Workshop 5.0
compilere with option "-compat=4".
The program I am trying to compile contains:
#include <string>
int main()
string test = "aaa";
return 0;
There is no "string" in "-compat=4". You need to
do something like this:
// --- start test.cc ---
#include <rw/cstring.h>
int main()
RWCString test = "aaa";
return 0;
// --- end test.cc ---
CC -compat=4 -library=rwtools7 test.cc

TS3899 Can't send or receive email on iPhone 5 nor my iPad 2? Tried hard resetting, deleting account then adding again-- no luck! Please help!!

CAn someone please tell me how to fix my email problem-- all of a sudden I can't receive or send email-- it's an Apple problem-- cause I can get online-- tried the hard reset and deleting account and adding again-- no luck
thanks
mary

you still didn't answer the question.... unless you mean to say that you have an AT&T e-mail account. (e.g. @att.net)
If that's what you mean, they use Yahoo for e-mail services. Yahoo's mail servers are notoriously bad. This comes up here at least several times a week. The problem is on the Yahoo end. Trust me, the AT&T rep you spoke to doesn't know what they are talking about. Removing and re-adding the account increases the odds that you will actually hit a working server, but it's not guaranteed to do so.
Set up a gmail account or iCloud account and consider switching.

URGENT!! Strings - Please help

Hi
I am urgently requiring help here. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have a string:
<clip clipID="{F46F8F95-DB46-4ECE-A44E-5906C7CC60EE}" originalFileName="009033d.rm"
I need to find the string inside that starts with the first { and ends with the last }
How do I do this??
Thanks

// Escape characters "\" only for this example
String origString = "<clip clipID=\"{F46F8F95-DB46-4ECE-A44E-5906C7CC60EE}\" originalFileName=\"009033d.rm\"";
String braketString = origString.substring(origString.firstIndexOf('{') + 1, origString.lastIndexOf('}'));I had to put escape characters in this example since there are quotes in the string. You won't have to worry about that, since I imagine you're getting the string from parsing some page content.
Hope that helps,
Mike

JMS adapter adding namespace to PIP. Please help!

Hi Experts,
I have a XI scenario where 4C1 PIP is being sent to TIBCO.
The issue is that, the output PIP has a namespace <Pip4C1InventoryReportNotification xmlns:jms1="http://www.tibco.com/namespaces/tnt/plugins/jms">
But no where in XI this namespace has been specified. I suspect that this namespace is getting added in JMS adapter side.
Can this namespace be easily removed in JMS adpter so that PIP element is generated as <Pip4C1InventoryReportNotification> ? If Yes, then how can we do that?
Thanks & Regards
Gopal

From the namespace and the prefix, I guess that the Tibco jms libraries add that namespace. If this is true, you cannot do anything in PI and you have to check, if Tibco can work with that namespace or remove it.
Regards
Stefan

Please help to remove songs weren't on playlist (and Itunes)!

Hi all,
I'm so new to this forum and if this post was in a wrong place, please forgive me!
I recently added a lot of songs into my Ipod. But today, I found that those songs weren't on my playlists, so I add them again (I don't know why?). Unfortunately, the songs I added yesterday WERE IN MY IPOD but not in Itunes (even in My Ipod Icon in Itunes). So I have many duplicated songs in my Ipod but only one copy in Itunes. Now I want to remove those duplicated songs and ones that present in Ipod hard drive but not appear in Itunes. Please help me to do so.
(I don't have Itunes Library in my computer since it takes too much space. I found this problem when I use a software to detect duplicated files. Many other songs that I didn't add today but already in my Ipod, and I want to remove those also!)
This is my 2nd Ipod and I know how to update firmware, adding songs... Please help me to solve this problem since it took about 3GB of wasting space on my Ipod!
Your helps are greatly appreciated!
Pardon my English. Have a great day all!
Saigonian

Hi Chris,
Because you said: "The songs can be in any any/all/no playlists.
On the iPod menu go to Music -> Songs.", but in my Ipod, at the Menu, I just have Playlist and Setting displayed. After your previous post, I try to set more options in the main display and I can't see the "No playlist" display!
"You already said you had duplicates so go to that song. Sings are in alphabetical order."
Firstly, with Ipod's tiny screen, are you going to browse one by one to see which songs are duplicated in about more than 300 duplicated files?
Secondly, And if you found it that way, what can you do in the Ipod itself? Ipod doesn't allow you to delete songs directly from itself. And when you plug it in the computer, run Itunes, those songs are disappeared (I said it didn't show on the Itunes). How can you delete it?
Thirdly, Those songs are not displayed in Ipod and Itunes! I only can found some duplicated songs via another software which only search for duplicated songs. And for songs that I didn't add in the second time, there's no way that I can find it.
In this case, I think there's only one solution that having a software to check the intire Ipod's database to find if there's anysong that present in Ipod's hard drive but not in Itunes.
"iTunes doesn’t rename them when they are put in the iPod. When they are added to iTunes, the file name is the song name. It is stored under the album which is stored under the a artist.
It’s a very easy, basic and simple way to store them."
I don't agree with you about this. Mp3 is collected from many sources. Many of them only have "Track 1" or "track n" in the title, and "No artist" or whatever artist etc... When we add it into Ipod, we have to rename it or correct it the way we like.
And look at the picture below, will you still think that Itunes doesn't remane them when they are put in the Ipod?. In this images, you'll see a long list of folders that stored music in your Ipod. The problem is any song that recently added into Ipod can be stored in folder F00 through Fnn.
http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/8476/0018px.jpg
And in this picture, a list of my music added into Ipod. Do you have your music named as 1584, HGNC or something like that? No, I don't think so and I don't think anyone on this earth could name thier music files that way. So, it's clear that Itunes DOES rename those song in it's own way and it's not a good way to handle music!
