AP Computer Science--Need a bit of help for class
Hey guys,
I'm a senior in high school, and I'm taking the class AP Computer Science. We're learning Java programming and we've been using an outdated version of Sun Studio creator. The class is composed of me and my friend, we're studying independantly. The program is only available on the teacher's computer.
We sanctioned a couple computers currently to do programming on and we downloaded Sun Studio Creator and Enterprise on each. We started the new version of Creator and found that we have a bit of a problem, which is where you guys come in.
We're not working with HTML or web affiliated programs, we're mainly just interested in offline programming. Creator, only offers web app templates, and every new project we open has HTMl in it. How can we get a non-HTML project going? We just want to do simple programming, without the web design stuff.
Thanks for any help you guys can provide.
--Tempest
Bets option , imho , is to get a copy of netbeans 5
It is in rc2 phase and quite stable.
it has many feature in editor and swing development which you will not find in Studio enterprise.
also developing web service and ejb stuff is too easy using netbeans 5.
you can have both profiler and Collaboration module in Netbeans too.
so :
best option is to go with netbeans 5 rc2 +

Need a bit of help with css and fullscreen
I am currently doing a javaFX application for my university project, I have it everything nearly finished, but need to finish the css component to make the application "prettier" (I am not very good on graphic design to be honest). So if i could get a bit of help on this little issue I'd be very grateful.
is there any way to make fullscreen (and if possible resizing window) to instead rearranging everything to actually do a fullscreen (like the games) and everything "grows accordingly (even though in games what it usually does is to change the screen resolution, is that possible to reproduce with javaFX?) also how to remove the message and the effect on click the "esc" key to exit the fullscreen mode?
i know that removing the focus effect on an element is with the following (if a button)
.button:focused{
-fx-background-insets: 0;
}but,is there any way to remove the effect on anything focused (TextField, Combo Box, ...)? (tried with a .textfield:focused but it did not work)
also i wanted to produce the focused effect by this way but it didn't work, how should i do it? (in fact even if i try to put this line on the button:focused, the focused effect gets removed from there, because of the insets line)
#highlight{
-fx-background-insets: 2;
-fx-background-color: yellow;
public class controller extends StackPane implements Initializable{
public void highlight(){
this.getStyleClass().add("highlight");
and last thing (for the moment) the .button seems to work for all the buttons, but trying another thing like .gridpane or .textfield or .scrollpane does not seem to work, is there any way to make it work or i should add "id" to all the elements and use the # instead?i wrote all them in the same thread becsause there were a total of 4 (and could had been more) separated by ----
should i leave it how it is or open now 4 threads for each question? -
Need to create search help for parameter 2 based on values in parameter1
hi Specialists,
I need to create a search help for parameters field 2 ( Country ) based on the values the user inputs in parameters field 1 ( Currency ). The values of field Currency & Country will come from T001 table.
The logic is : Based on a unique currency value ( fetched from T001 table ) user needs to get/see all Countries on his selection -screen.
Can you guys let me know which FM can I use for above & how to pass various values i.e. parameters into that FM. EXplanation with an example/code is highly appreciable.
Thanks

Touchsmart 600 1410es, videocard replacement, need a bit of help
Good day,
I would like to upgrade my video card, Geforce GT210, on a new one - MXM 3.0A ATI Radeon 6770M GDDR5 1Gb,
When i change card, when i turn on PC, the screen is black, and nothing is going on, i feel that OS is loading, but screen is blank.
i tryed to take off Graphic Card, and turn on PC without it, but screen is black as well, but when check my Touchsmart 600 1410 support page, it says that i got integrated one, but if i got integrated one, why the screen is black, and how can i check if everything is ok?
And could you please say, if MXM 3.0A ATI Radeon 6770M GDDR5 1Gb compatible with E66 MotherBoard?
Thank you,
Kind Regards,

Kinda New, and need alittle bit of help.
Well, It been a very very long time since i used Linux in any form. And I am trying to install a oldie but goodie game Chromium. Which is not in our repo. So i Dl'ed the src and data tar balls and untared them. In the install instructions. It states that I need to: Set CHROMIUM_DATA environment variable to point to data directory ( i.e. Chromium-0.9/data )??? This is were O am lost. Well I tried to do the make anyways but it died out... From what it looks like I have all the depends needed. Below is a copy of the echo from running the make:

So I was hoping could someone explain were do I again -> Set CHROMIUM_DATA environment variable to point to data directory ( i.e. Chromium-0.9/data ) to get this up and going.
BTW I love the distro... Since I been back using Linux Arch and Slack have been the only to distro that KISS! Thanks in advance for all the help.Well, OK Thanks for the link.... Still being new It took me a bit.. But I was able to find the info on AUR and added the FTP Server to my pacman.conf file under community. pacman was able to find it and installed it... Thanks for the help...

Need a bit of help with a code
Hello adobe community!
i have been fiddling around with FLASH MX and have been making a game VERY slowly.
i've picked up alot since starting and have restarted making said game MANY MANY times =D...
But i have now got a copy that is neat and clean and works really well BUT i've come into a bit of a problem.
i have _global.goldenticket = 0; on my first frame along with other variables and i have made a single location where one can aquire a "goldenticket".
now things are starting to confuse me... ive added a button inside a movie clip which if clicked "should" check if i have a golden ticket and then allow me to jump to the frame specified...
on(release){
if(goldenticket=="1"){
money -= 50;
energy -=50;
_root.gotoAndPlay("enter");
}else{
this.enabled=false;
however the button doesnt seem to see my ticket (even tho ive added a dynamic textbox to keep track of how many i have, which is 1)
ive tried many different ways to go around this but i cannot seem to get it to work...
please someone help me... in relativly simple answers please =\ im only a few days into flash learning and codeing. but im enjoying what im doing so im learning quickly.
will have my face to the screen in waiting =D
Thank you to everyone who took a look at my thread!THANK YOU!!!
REALLY quick response WITH lang i could easily understand...
mate thank you haha been wrapping my brain for hours on end with other things didnt even occure to me to slap _global infront. -
Need a bit of help with Jumping in a game
I making an action game (at least for the sake of this question) and when the user presses the spacebar the character jumps. The problem is, if the character is moving right or left, and jumps while he is moving, he will stop moving in mid-air (if the spacebar is released) and just drop straight down. Example:
press right arrow key
player moves right
press space while pressing arrow key
player jumps
let go of spacebar
player drops straight down (does not continue to move right) //Problem
It's pretty simple code, actually:
/* Move player left or right */
if (pressedRight)
player.x_pos += player.x_speed;
else if (pressedLeft)
player.x_pos -= player.x_speed;
/* If spacebar is pressed */
if (pressedSpace && !player.moveUp)
player.moveUp = true;
player.y_speed = player.INITIALSPEED;
/* if you are in "jump mode" */
if (player.moveUp)
player.y_pos += player.y_speed;
player.y_speed += .25;
if (player.y_pos >= TheGround)
player.moveUp = false;
player.y_speed = 0;
public boolean keyDown(Event e, int key)
if(key==Event.LEFT)
pressedLeft = true;
if(key==Event.RIGHT)
pressedRight=true;
if(key==Event.UP)
pressedUp=true;
if(key==Event.DOWN)
pressedDown=true;
if (key == ' ')
pressedSpace = true;
repaint();
return true;
public boolean keyUp(Event e, int key)
pressedLeft=false;
pressedRight = false;
pressedSpace = false;
repaint();
return true;
}Run this code and you'll see what I'm talking about:
import java.awt.*;

Need a bit of help with some theory...
I'm just looking over some past paers for my exam and I'm having trouble understanding exactly what this question is asking for:
What is an Enterprise computer system? Give an example of an Enterprise system. Critically discuss two alternative development environments that could be used to develop such a system. Suggest which development environment you would choose to develop the example enterprise system you have suggested and why.
I'm just sure exactly what it means by development enviroments, does it mean a program like JDeveloper? A couple of examples would be really handy
ThanksThink of an Enterprise computer system as nothing more than a resouce pool. A pool of database connections, persistant database objects, mail sessions, messaging sessions. Basically any resouce a developer would need to develop any type of application.
As for environments... the two I think of are Microsoft .NET and Sun's Java System Application Server Platform. Thay are basically the same in concept, microsoft just repackaged everything good about Java and called it .NET. .NET is (of course) dependant on the Microsoft OS platform, Sun/Java is not. -

Whenever you have a problem, post a complete test script that people can run to re-create the problem and test their ideas. Include CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for any or your own tables needed.
Post the results you want from that sample data.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using.

Hi...I Feel like I've been reading for weeks about this wireless stiff and I now know less that when I started. Right when I think I understand..Bam I'm all cornfused all over again....
Here's what I'm working on-
Win XP home
ISP=Comcast Cable
Modem=Motorola SB5120
Linksys Wireless B Broadband Router BEFW11S4 Ver.?(not sure)
firmware=1.45.3, Jul 1 2003
AND-
Linksys Wireless-G Adapter WUSB54G
this is needs to be set up to the above machine/router
a few things that are confusing me are this, are the 2 computers that I want to be together on the wireless suppose to have the same MAC address'? Or is all that suppose to be the same?
It seems like I will be following along with one of the many instructions that I find...then they want me to go into a place that I can't find/don't have.
Another thing, is the wireless network the samething as setting up the small home/office network?
It all seems like it's so easy...but then it also seems to always go horribly wrong, for me anyways..: (
Obiviously Either I'm ok with the way the router is set up, or an angel has decided I've been tortured enough and decided I deserved to get online for badly needed assistance.
I'd like it to be a secured line. When I first began I tried to use the wizard to set up a wireless network. When I was done it gave me an WEP number or key? and I also provided a name. What do I do with this info?
I'm pretty twisted and turned around on this , is there anyone that could give me some consistant easy to follow instructions?
I also talked to the linksys folks, what they recommended didn't work out at all...so...
HelpppppppppPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPpppppppppppp Pleeze!
Thanks all!

I need a bit of help with my 7600GT
Alright.
My motherboard doesn't have a VGA slot, and neither does this Video Card. I understand that it is remedied with the adapters that are provided, but one must install the drivers for the DVI slots before one can do anything. I can't get any output on my monitor with the adapters because I can't see what's going on to install the drivers. I managed to install Windows by taking out my hard drive and putting it into another computer (SATA drive, btw) and I would have done the same with my video card if it weren't for the fact that no other computers in my house have PCI-E slots.
Is there any way to get the drivers onto this hard drive without having to search around town for a computer with both a SATA and a PCI-E slot?
Thanks!iamquitethen00b,

I need a "bit" of help with an 8 Puzzle
My current situation is that I need to create a working 8 puzzle with Java using a GUI. What I've currently done is at http://nale.f2g.net/EightPuzzle.java . My main problem is that when running it I get a NullPointerException at the line containing tile[blankPos].setText(tile[ndx].getText()); in the swap method.
I get a NPE when ever I use the scramble() method.
The source is the line move(rand.nextInt(4)); .Your Random rand is not instantiated nowhere. Thus it is naturally null.
Make rand in the constructor.
Here's a simpler one. You could use random swap() calls for moving/shuffling/scrambling.

I need a bit of help with my iPhone 4...
I just backed up my phone and I'm trying to update it to iOS 7.0.4. but when I updated my ipod, everything got deleted off of it. I don't want that to happen to my phone even though I know it probably will. If I restore my iPhone and then restore backup AFTER I update my phone, will I get everything back?
Also, will everything actually be deleted or could I find them somewhere on my laptop?iamquitethen00b,

Need step-by-step help for Azureus and AirPort Express
Absolutely clueless on NAT Error and setup with Azureus, AirPort Express and System Preferences Sharing. Done a search here and Google it. Don't understand a single one of them. Download is a miserable 1 - 3 Kb/s and upload is IMPOSSIBLE. Even I tried turning off firewall in System Preferences, the results are the same. Help.
Thanks in advance.You need to enable Port Mapping on the Express for the port you're using for BitTorrents. You can determine the port number in the Azureus preferences. To set up Port Mapping, open up the Express's configuration in Airport Admin Utility, click on the Port Mapping tab, and add an entry with your computer's IP address and the BitTorrent port number in both the public and private port number fields.

Need little Windows XP help for Satellite A215-S5849
Hi,
I have a notebook Toshiba Satellite A215-S5849 which came with Windows Vista home premium.
Some time ago, I installed Windows XP SP3 and I also installed some drivers which i found here:
[Page from where I downloaded drivers, click|http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp]
I had to select model A210 coz there is no Satellite A215 available (but its probably simmilar, coz on my included Vista CD with drivers it also says its for A210/A215)
Main problem is... is there any simple way to get all XP drivers for A215... [Thats an other page, where I searched drivers for exactly my notebook and WIN XP, its many for vista. Select to filter for XP... not a lot of drivers for me id say, click |http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_sc_modItemList.jsp?moid=1998646&rpn=PSAFGU&ct=D L&BV_SessionID=@@@@1886836112.1220191695@@@@&BV_En gineID=cccfadefdejeidmcgfkceghdgngdgnn.0 ]
I have this little problems id like to solve:
1) Fn F5 doesnt work... I have 2 monitors and I cant use Fn F5 hotkey... I downloaded the driver... and other Fn keys work... but not F5... I've searched the forum and web and found something that I should have a "display devices change utility" installed, but this is only available for older notebooks (Ive searched, but i found only old driver for this). How do I make Fn F5 work in Win XP on A215?
2) Also in my Device manager I have three "Base System Device" undentified as "Other devices". Is this ok... or do i need some drivers or something?
3) And I have a question about this utility: [ link here, click|http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_sc_dtlViewDL.jsp?soid=1903653&moid=1998646&rpn= PSAFGU&BV_SessionID=@@@@0768822790.1220188011@@@@& BV_EngineID=cccfadefdejeidmcgfkceghdgngdgnn.0&ct=D L&all_docs=false]
Would this install all the available drivers for the notebook? If not, what does it do, maybe update?
4) And also... the multimedia keys... is it possible to select play/pause, stop, next, prev buttons for other program than windows media player. Id like to run those keys on winamp, ive downloaded a plugin for winamp, and it did worked on Vista, but not on XP... in Toshiba controls utility I can only sellect programs to start with Internet button and CD/DVD button. Ive read its not possible, but it worked when I installed the plugin on Vista.
Thank you for reading this and help.
Just in case I added drivers that I installed below. Dont really need to read this I think, but i add...
Drives that i installed:
Hotkey Utility, Toshiba
Common Module, Toshiba
Controls, Toshiba
Display Driver, ATI
Power Saver, Toshiba
Sound Driver, Realtek Semiconductor Corporation
SD Utilities
Wireless Lan Client Manager, Atheros
Touch Pad Driver, Synaptics
Processor driver, AMD
atheros wlan driver
Camera Software, Chicony
The drivers available were pretty straightforward , coz there is only one available for LAN, audio, Hotkeys etc. So I had not much choice. I also checked for which hardware they were made and from wihich manifacturer they are (I found the right ones... for example, realtek drivers for my realtek audio device...)> I had to select model A210 coz there is no Satellite A215 available (but its probably similar, coz on my included Vista CD with drivers it also says its for A210/A215)
The A215 is a US notebook series and you usually you should use the Toshiba US driver page in order to get all compatible XP drivers.
There is no guarantee that the Toshiba XP drivers from the Toshiba European driver page would work correctly on the Toshiba US notebook.
Regarding the point;
1) You are right. The display device change utility controls the FN+F5 key combination and also the Hotkey Utility make the FN+F5 combination working.
This tool is available for some A210 series like the PSAFGE series. But it does not work on all A210/A215 series.
2) This could be a card reader. Check if its already installed. But note; after the XP installation you will still have yellow exclamation marks in device manager because some hardware will be only supported by Windows Vista. Therefore there is no Windows XP driver.
3) In my opinion the Toshiba Software Upgrades for Windows Vista/XP reminds about some new available software updates which were released on the Toshiba page US page.
4) I have the same issue and I think there is no way to change this in XP.
The Toshiba controls Utility for XP is simply different as the version for Vista and in my eyes there is nothing to do.
