API Specification - Help!

I'm working with a Java since a long time, expecially writing some customized extensions of an existing product.
Anyway, I've always had a lot of problems trying to understand how to "read" the documentation about API specification, expecially for new classes I've never used before. And in most cases, there are some "matches" of classes I must do to solve a problem: for example, to read a text file I use "BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file));", so I MUST know that BufferedReader needs FileReader to work.
Where can I find useful tips to understand this "mechanism"? I can't go around on Internet every time I need, searching for an example!
Thanks

Ok, that's right about APIs.
But following the example, my real question is: how can I know that for reading a text file i can use the combination of BufferedReader and FileReader?Look at the package names and descriptions. If something is called java.io and IO is what you want to do, one can safely guess that it might contain some stuff you need.
Generally, while programming, I have a situation to solve and I try searching over Internet for a solution, an idea, an example of code to study and manage for my needings, but it's not so simple.It's enough if you find a reference to a library which does what you need. Googling for "java <whateveryouneed>" usually does wonders. Maybe also adding "tutorial".
In Java docs I can find only the features of the specific classes, but there's no way to know how to combinate them to solve a problem: so Java docs may not be helpful, since you don't spend a lot of time reading them and trying...If you know what those classes are doing, you will know how to combine them. You can also see the dependencies from the Javadocs, as I told you in my previous post. It's easy to move from BufferedReader to FileReader, it just takes two clicks.
In my mind there's a sort of "reverse programming", something where the input is the problem and the output is one or more ways to solve it... What's reverse about that?

  • Oracle Database Lite API Specification JDBC

    Hello.
    I would like to create a schema with Oracle Database Lite API Specification.
    I have done a script to create an application in the Mobile Server in this way:
    "Platform p = new Platform("WINCE_ARMV4_US_OLITE_STD42");"
    "Application app = new Application(nombre_app, ruta_virtual_app, p);"
    And using ConsolidatorManager for the conection:

    But after that, I can't get the application. Could you help me, please?
    Thank you.

    Is this subscription parameter causing a problem?
    unless the subscription parameter name is referenced in the select statements for any of the publication item definitions, it will be ignored by the processing as the subsetting parameters are just used to supply values for bind variables at query time
    If you have other valid subsetting parameters for the user, then try (if all your set up is done via APIs and you do not have an APPLICATION, only a PUBLICATION, this may not work)
    1) go into the mobile manager > users
    2) search for user name, and click on the link under the user name
    3) go to subsetting parameters and pick a valid one
    4) select the data and do cntrl C cntrl V (cut and paste)
    5) press the save button
    The above has the effect of resetting the user account, and refreshes sequence values, c$all_client_items etc.
    If you can do the above steps, but this does not remove the subsetting variable, you should be able to go to it and set the value to NULL
    I do not think that there is a delete function due to the dependancy to the select statements which would be complex to validate

    Such as a html file just like a dictionary.Well, the API documentation I posted a link of in reply #1 is not an explanation of how to use the Java classes. It is more a reference. When you need a thorough explanation, I recommend doing some tutorials, or buying a book.

  • Where can I find the API specifications??

    Hi,
    I have been searching on the SUN website for the API specifications for J2ME. However so far I did not have any luck!
    I found the following document that can be seen from this link:
    http://java.sun.com/j2me/docs/pdf/cldc11api.pdf
    However I went to search for the Form class in this document but could not find it. Therefore I searched on Google for J2ME API, however I could not find anything either.
    Can someone please refer to me from where can I find the J2ME API specifications? Because without them I can hardly develop anything
    thanks & regards,

    out.println( "Servlet Engine Version is " +
    sc.getMajorVersion() + "." + sc.getMinorVersion() );
    This is ofcourse the runtime server environment's version, you can still develop
    servlets for other versions, but can not
    rely on the new features when running and
    debugging in JDeveloper.
    However, the real need is for the target
    host.
    But to answer your question directly,
    On JDeveloper 3.1, when I run a servlet
    containing the above code,
    I see the result:
    Servlet Engine Version is 2.1

  • MEDIA ENCODER crash error: c:ame820_win\releases\external\adobe\mediacore\mediafoundation\api\  PLEASE HELP

    WORKSTATION HP Z600
    XEON E5645 12GB RAM NVIDIA QUADRO 2000 WIN 8.1 64bit
    BLACKMAGIC DESIGN ULTRASTUDIO SDI
    good morning,
    I have some problems with premiere pro cc 2014 release 2
    the most important is that Media Encoder crashes and the following error:
    c:ame820_win\releases\external\adobe\mediacore\mediafoundation\api\
    The second problem is that when I open the software you group all the windows on one side.
    Does anyone know what I need to do to solve these two problems?
    please help
    Andrea

    I do have a 64 bit OS - Win 7. The RAM does provide a noticable difference in performance - things are much more "snappy" now, which I'm enjoying, but hasn't eliminated my problem.
    The encoder does not stop at the same point, it seems to be quite random. I can view the files that I've exported (up until the point they cut off) and there's nothing going on in the clip that would be any sort of red flag - in other words, it is not stopping the coding at a point where a new color correction or title is being introduced, it had all happened previously. This is my first large project on CS4, and I don't have anything else to export at the moment!
    I'm not running premiere in multi-monitor mode: I've got a 24" widescreen monitor that is my sole monitor.
    I have COMBED the interwebs trying to find a resolution to this issue, and I am no where... I'm currently installing CS4 on a XP machine that I have that is pretty robust, and am going to try encoding on that, just to see if I get a different result.
    Any suggestions at all would be MOST appreciated!
    Thanks!

    I'm opening up an old thread, because it seems reasonably relevant to my problem.
    If I'm using database users as my workflow users, can I send them e-mail notifications? The view wf_user populates the e-mail column with contents of the column username from dba_users -- so clearly this column will never contain a valid e-mail address (unless there are varying versions of this view and I have the wrong one installed for my purposes).
    And can anyone point me to the relevant documentation on this. I've gone through the Admin Guide and the Developers Guide.
    Many thanks,

  • Calling an Oracle stored procedure using Toplink API - Please help

    Hi,
    We are evaluating Toplink as a possible data access layer in large service-oriented application. The ability to call db stored procedures from within business object layer is crucial for our architechture.
    I am trying to follow toplink application developer's guide examples on how to call stored procedures using toplink.
    I have the folling java code:
    call.setProcedureName("PR_ROMAN_TEST");
    call.addNamedArgument("IN_PARAM");
    call.addNamedOutputArgument("OUT_PARAM");
    ValueReadQuery query = new ValueReadQuery();
    query.setCall(call);
    query.addArgument("IN_PARAM");
    Vector params = new Vector();
    params.addElement(new Integer(5));
    Number result = (Number) session.executeQuery(query, params);
    This generates the following SQL statement:
    BEGIN PR_ROMAN_TEST(IN_PARAM=>5, OUT_PARAM=>?); END;
    An attempt to execute it causes a
    java.sql.SQLException: Invalid column index.
    As I understand it, this exception is thrown because of the "?" in place of the out-parameter value holder.
    The SQL statement that I would want toplink to generate and execute should look like:
    DECLARE result number; BEGIN PR_ROMAN_TEST(IN_PARAM=>5, OUT_PARAM=>result); END;
    , but how do I achieve it and how do I capture the return value, all using toplink api?
    Please help
    Thank you in advance,
    Roman

    Here are the sequence settings:
    PAR: D1/DV PAL Widescreen 16:9 (1.4587) (So 1050 X 576)
    25 frames per second
    Upper field first
    The source material is dragged into CS5 and interpreted at a PAR of 1.4587.
    With my main goal being to maintain smoothness of motion on Youtube -
    1. Is H.264 the best option? If no, what do you recommend?
    2. What are the specific export settings I should be following/playing around with?
    3. Are there any in-sequence settings I should use/avoid?
    I have been reading and watching tutorials and struggling with this for a week so any other recommendations or resources to learn about this are much appreciated. Please help!
    Thanks,
    V.

    Ann and Averdahl I appreciate your replies, thank you!
    Yes, it is definitely upper field first.
    To start the sequence I dragged the source file into “new item” so the sequence created should match the source file properties.
    When I do this the sequence settings are:
    720 X 576
    Vertical 4:3
    PAR D1/DV PAL (1.0940)
    However, when I do this the footage does not display as widescreen (I believe the camera records in anamorphic widescreen).
    To display it correctly I then right click on the source file and change it to interpret footage as D1/DV Pal Widescreen 16:9 (1.4587).
    When I drag this newly interpreted file into “new item” it displays widescreen correctly and the new sequence settings are:
    720 X 576
    Vertical 16:9
    PAR D1/DV PAL Widescreen (1.4587)
    1. Have I done anything wrong to this point?
    Thanks,
    V.

  • Testing an API Specification

    I have created a class library and I would ike to know if there are any specific ways to do this.

    junit offers embedded methods for unit tests.
    Otherwise for api usage write lots of code, run a profiler and see what happens.
    hope this helps
