Caching of tcUtilityFactory and/or utility classes?

I was wondering if there were any guidelines or best practices around caching of the utility factory object (tcUtilityFactory) or utility class objects such as tcUserOperationsIntf.
Is there any downside to caching these objects? Is it even worth caching them for performance and/or memory usage improvements?
Thanks!

The below link will help you caching at configuration level
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/doc.1111/e14308/tuningappcache.htm
to answer your question yes,caching is worth for performance point of view. Not sure how can be implement for factory classes at object level in code.

Re: [iPlanet-JATO] Re: Use Of models in utility classes - Pease don't forget about the regular expression potential

Namburi,
When you said you used the Reg Exp tool, did you use it only as
preconfigured by the iMT migrate application wizard?
Because the default configuration of the regular expression tool will only
target the files in your ND project directories. If you wish to target
classes outside of the normal directory scope, you have to either modify the
"Source Directory" property OR create another instance of the regular
expression tool. See the "Tool" menu in the iMT to create additional tool
instances which can each be configured to target different sets of files
using different sets of rules.
Usually, I utilize 3 different sets of rules files on a given migration:
spider2jato.xml
these are the generic conversion rules (but includes the optimized rules for
ViewBean and Model based code, i.e. these rules do not utilize the
RequestManager since it is not needed for code running inside the ViewBean
or Model classes)
I run these rules against all files.
See the file download section of this forum for periodic updates to these
rules.
nonProjectFileRules.xml
these include rules that add the necessary
RequestManager.getRequestContext(). etc prefixes to many of the common
calls.
I run these rules against user module and any other classes that do not are
not ModuleServlet, ContainerView, or Model classes.
appXRules.xml
these rules include application specific changes that I discover while
working on the project. A common thing here is changing import statements
(since the migration tool moves ND project code into different jato
packaging structure, you sometime need to adjust imports in non-project
classes that previously imported ND project specific packages)
So you see, you are not limited to one set of rules at all. Just be careful
to keep track of your backups (the regexp tool provides several options in
its Expert Properties related to back up strategies).

Great response. By the way, the Regular Expression Tool uses thePerl5 RE
syntax as implemented by Apache OROMatcher. If you're doing lotsof these
sorts of migration changes manually, you should definitely buy theO'Reilly
book "Mastering Regular Expressions" and generate some rules toautomate the
conversion. Although they are definitely confusing at first,regular
expressions are fairly easy to understand with some documentation,and are
superbly effective at tackling this kind of migration task.

Please bear in mind that this statement is not totally correct:
Since the migration tool does not do much of conversion for

utilities we have to do manually.Remember, the iMT is a SUITE of tools. There is the extractiontool, and
the translation tool, and the regular expression tool, and severalother
smaller tools (like the jar and compilation tools). It is correctto state
that the extraction and translation tools only significantlyconvert the
primary ND project objects (the pages, the data objects, and theproject
classes). The extraction and translation tools do minimumtranslation of the
User Module objects (i.e. they repackage the user module classes inthe new
jato module packages). It is correct that for all other utilityclasses
which are not formally part of the ND project, the extraction and
translation tools do not perform any migration.
However, the regular expression tool can "migrate" any arbitrary
file
(utility classes etc) to the degree that the regular expressionrules
correlate to the code present in the arbitrary file. So first andforemost,
if you have alot of spider code in your non-project classes youshould
consider using the regular expression tool and if warranted adding
additional rules to reduce the amount of manual adjustments thatneed to be
made. I can stress this enough. We can even help you write theregular
expression rules if you simply identify the code pattern you wish to
convert. Just because there is not already a regular expressionrule to
match your need does not mean it can't be written. We have notnearly
exhausted the possibilities.
For example if you say, we need to convert
CSpider.getDataObject("X");
To
RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(XModel.class);
Maybe we or somebody else in the list can help write that regularexpression if it has not already been written. For instance in thelast
updated spider2jato.xml file there is already aCSpider.getCommonPage("X")
rule:

<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getPage[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getPage[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-match>
<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[getViewBean($1ViewBean.class]]>
</mapping-rule-substitute>
</mapping-rule-replacement>
</mapping-rule>
Following this example a getDataObject to getModel would look
like this:
<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getDataObject[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getDataObject[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-match>
<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[getModel($1Model.class]]>
</mapping-rule-substitute>
</mapping-rule-replacement>
</mapping-rule>
In fact, one migration developer already wrote that rule andsubmitted it
for inclusion in the basic set. I will post another upgrade to thebasic
regular expression rule set, look for a "file uploaded" posting.Also,
please consider contributing any additional generic rules that youhave
written for inclusion in the basic set.
Please not, that in some cases (Utility classes in particular)
the rule
application may be more effective as TWO sequention rules ratherthan one
monolithic rule. Again using the example above, it will convert
CSpider.getDataObject("Foo");
To
getModel(FooModel.class);
Now that is the most effective conversion for that code if that
code is in
a page or data object class file. But if that code is in a Utilityclass you
really want:
>
RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(FooModel.class
So to go from
getModel(FooModel.class);
To
RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(FooModel.class
You would apply a second rule AND you would ONLY run this rule
against
your utility classes so that you would not otherwise affect yourViewBean
and Model classes which are completely fine with the simplegetModel call.
<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[getModel$]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>
<![CDATA[getModel\(]]>
</mapping-rule-match>
<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(]]>
</mapping-rule-substitute>
</mapping-rule-replacement>
</mapping-rule>
A similer rule can be applied to getSession and other CSpider APIcalls.
For instance here is the rule for converting getSession calls toleverage
the RequestManager.
<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[getSession\($\.]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>
<![CDATA[getSession\.]]>
</mapping-rule-match>
<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[RequestManager.getSession().]]>
</mapping-rule-substitute>
</mapping-rule-replacement>
</mapping-rule>

match your need does not mean it can't be written. We have notnearly
exhausted the possibilities.
For example if you say, we need to convert
CSpider.getDataObject("X");
To
RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(XModel.class);
Maybe we or somebody else in the list can help write that regularexpression if it has not already been written. For instance in thelast
updated spider2jato.xml file there is already aCSpider.getCommonPage("X")
rule:

<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getPage[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getPage[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-match>
<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[getViewBean($1ViewBean.class]]>
</mapping-rule-substitute>
</mapping-rule-replacement>
</mapping-rule>
Following this example a getDataObject to getModel would look
like this:
<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getDataObject[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getDataObject[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-match>
<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[getModel($1Model.class]]>
</mapping-rule-substitute>
</mapping-rule-replacement>
</mapping-rule>
In fact, one migration developer already wrote that rule andsubmitted it
for inclusion in the basic set. I will post another upgrade to thebasic
regular expression rule set, look for a "file uploaded" posting.Also,
please consider contributing any additional generic rules that youhave
written for inclusion in the basic set.
Please not, that in some cases (Utility classes in particular)
the rule
application may be more effective as TWO sequention rules ratherthan one
monolithic rule. Again using the example above, it will convert
CSpider.getDataObject("Foo");
To
getModel(FooModel.class);
Now that is the most effective conversion for that code if that
code is in
a page or data object class file. But if that code is in a Utilityclass you
really want:
>
RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(FooModel.class
So to go from
getModel(FooModel.class);
To
RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(FooModel.class
You would apply a second rule AND you would ONLY run this rule
against
your utility classes so that you would not otherwise affect yourViewBean
and Model classes which are completely fine with the simplegetModel call.
<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[getModel$]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>
<![CDATA[getModel\(]]>
</mapping-rule-match>
<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(]]>
</mapping-rule-substitute>
</mapping-rule-replacement>
</mapping-rule>
A similer rule can be applied to getSession and other CSpider APIcalls.
For instance here is the rule for converting getSession calls toleverage
the RequestManager.
<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[getSession\($\.]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>
<![CDATA[getSession\.]]>
</mapping-rule-match>
<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[RequestManager.getSession().]]>
</mapping-rule-substitute>
</mapping-rule-replacement>
</mapping-rule>

Subject: [iPlanet-JATO] Use Of models in utility classes
Hi All,
In the present ND project we have lots of utility classes.
These
classes in diffrent directory. Not part of nd pages.
In these classes we access the dataobjects and do themanipulations.
So we access dataobjects directly like
CSpider.getDataObject("do....");
and then execute it.
Since the migration tool does not do much of conversion forthese
utilities we have to do manually.
My question is Can we access the the models in the postmigration
sameway or do we need requestContext?
We have lots of utility classes which are DataObjectintensive. Can
someone suggest a better way to migrate this kind of code.

Hi Matt,
Sounds like some of the stuff we need to migrate has a lot in common with

I would be very keen to get hold of a copy of the 'tactic' document you

Thanks in advance,

Is there a Java utility class to help with data management in a desktop UI?

Is there a Java utility class to help with data management in a desktop UI?
I am writing a UI to configure a network device that will be connected to the serial port of the computer while it is being configured. There is no web server or database for my application. The UI has a large number of fields (50+) spread across 16 tabs. I will write the UI in Java FX. It should run inside the browser when launched, and issue commands to the network device through the serial port. A UI has several input fields spread across tabs and one single Submit button. If a field is edited, and the submit button clicked, it issues a command and sends the new datum to the device, retrieves current value and any errors. so if input field has bad data, it is indicated for example, the field has a red border.
Is there a standard design pattern or Java utility class to accomplish the frequently encountered, 'generic' parts of this scenario? lazy loading, submitting only what fields changed, displaying what fields have errors etc. (I dont want to reinvent the wheel if it is already there). Otherwise I can write such a class and share it back here if it is useful.
someone recommended JGoodies Bindings for Swing - will this work well and in FX?

Many thanks for the reply.

Why not Deprecate java.util.Date and java.util.Calendar

With the introduction of java.time, why did you not flag java.util.Date and java.util.Calendar. These classes have been a bane to every Java developer and should never be used again with the introduction of Java 1.8.

Adding the @Deprecated annotation would only just provide a warning about an old API and recommendation to the developer(s) to no longer use it. Doing so would not break any existing library out there; in fact quite a number of constructors and methods on the Date class have already been flagged deprecated.
The new java.time package is far superior to Date/Calendar.

I used to be able to download a lot of cd's, now I cannot download more than one or two cd's at a time. I am told that my 'cache' is full and I need to re-start iTunes to clear some of the 'cache' memory. What is the cache and how do I resolve this?

CD download problems:
I used to be able to download numerous cd's at a time but now I can only do one or two until I restart iTunes. I have been told that my 'cache' is full and will only empty a little a each restart. I did look at the properties and the 'cache' is showing full How do I correct or improve
this?

Final Cut is a separate, higher end video editor. The pro version of iMovie.
Give iPhoto a look at for creating the slideshow. It's easy to assemble the photos in an album in iPhoto, put them in the order you want and then make a slideshow of them. You can select from various themes and transitions between slides and add music from your iTunes library.
When you have the slidshow as you want use the Export button at the bottom of the iPhoto window and export with Size = Medium or Large.
Save the resulting Quicktime movie file in your Movies folder.
Next, open iDVD, choose your theme and drag the QT movie file into the menu window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Then follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
The reason I suggest iPhoto is that I find it much easier to use than iMovie (except for the older iMovie 6 HD version). Personal preferences showing here.

Software Update and Disk Utility no longer work (Leopard)

Hello. After upgrading yesterday from 10.4.11 to 10.5.0 then updating to 10.5.1 I find that repair / verify permissions no longer works (it just hangs after starting).
And the same with Software Update, it starts the check then just hangs. Grateful for any ideas!
Overall I am finding Leopard much slower in operation than Tiger. Peter

Create a new admin account with Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Accounts and see if the issue duplicates itself logging into that account. That will say if the issue systemwide, or just localized to the a bad user cache file. If the issue persists in the new user, you can try looking in the System -> Library and Library -> Cache, Applications Support, and ByHost folders for cache files relating to Software Update and Disk Utility. Once you find them, carefully extract them to comparable folders on your desktop you create (i.e. name one systemlibrarycache) so you know where you go them from, and restart your Mac. If the issues go away after two restarts then it is just one set of bad cache files. If the issues return after two restarts, you have something generating bad cache files which needs a more system wide repair tool.

Accessing utility classes from ebj

I have a session bean trying to access a utility class in the lib directory (same
directory as weblogic.jar). I have packaged it into a jar file and set the classpath
pointing to the file in the startWeblogic.cmd file. I compiled and depolyed the session
bean and it runs fine until it starts to access the class. I got NoClassFoundException.
I have tried to shut down and restart the server without any success. Anyone can
help me this this?
I know I can package the utility into the same jar as my ejb. But I don't want to
do it because it is going to be everywhere. What is the right way of doing it?
Thanks in advance.

Either you have a typo and the class is not in the classpath. You can prove
this by running
javap on the class using the same classpath as your startWebLogic script.
Or, as I suggested in the last response, it's not really standalone. The
jar probably has a
dependence on some classes in the ejb.jar.

Can I create a JTA EntityManagerFactory in a utility class in a .jar file?

I have utility classes in a .jar file inside of a .war file deployed in Glassfish 3.1. One of these utility classes, CredentialsUtil, needs to access a database. I can't inject an EntityManager into CredentialsUtil since it is not an EJB. (For security reasons I don't want to make CredentialsUtil an EJB. I want it to be a POJO.)
In CredentialsUtil I need an EntityManagerFactory that is connected to a datasource defined in Glassfish. Here is the line from CredentialsUtil.java and from the persistence.xml both of which will be in the util.jar file:
EntityManagerFactory emf = Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("Credpu");
<persistence-unit name="Credpu" transaction-type="JTA">
I can't use RESOURCE_LOCAL since any changes to the datasource configuration must be done in Glassfish rather than changing persistence.xml.
(The transaction context is not important in CredentialsUtil. It will be called by a WS-Security handler which may not have a transaction context.)
Can I put the persistence.xml and the CredentialsUtil class that creates the EntityManagerFactory from it inside of the util.jar file (which will be in a .war), or do I have to move the class and a copy of the persistence.xml file out to the .war file? (I'll have to leave persistence.xml in the .jar file too since there are some @Entity in the .jar file. I don't know why but there are @Entity pojos in the .jar file.)
I'd like to use the existing persistence.xml, but if I can't is there is a way to create an EntityManagerFactory (or EntityManager) that gets its datasource directly from Glassfish, ignoring persistence.xml?
Thanks.

Styles in Pages are saved in the documents (or templates). There is no easy method for adding a style to a built-in template (and it is strongly recommended that you do not tamper with them). You can open a built- in template, add your style and save it as a user template so that your new style will be standard in documents created from that template.

Using Async calls in a Util class

I have a Utility class that I want to put code in that I'm reusing over and over again. This includes Async.handleEvent calls. If I call an instance of the Util class from a [Test(async)] method, can I use the Async call in that other event?
When I tried this in my code, it said that it "Cannot add asynchronous functionality to methods defined by Test,Before or After that are not marked async" but my [Test] is marked as async. And when I was in the same class, I was able to have non-Test methods make Async calls.
Thanks for the help!
Mocked up Example (please note these are two separate files):
// Test.as
package
    import TimerUtil;
    public class Test
        [Test(async)]
        public function waitForTimer():void
            TimerUtil.newTimer();
// TimerUtil.as
package
    import flash.events.TimerEvent;
    import flash.utils.Timer;
    import org.flexunit.async.Async;
    public class TimerUtil
        private static var instance:TimerUtil;
        private var timer:Timer;
        private static const TIME_OUT:int = 1000;
        public static function newTimer() : void
            if (!instance) instance = new TimerUtil();
            instance.timer = new Timer(1000, 5);
            instance.timer.start();
            instance.waitForFifthTick();
        private function waitForFifthTick() : void
            Async.handleEvent(this, instance.timer, TimerEvent.TIMER, handleTimerTick, TIME_OUT);
        private function handleTimerTick ( evt:TimerEvent, eventObject:Object) : void
            if ( timer.currentCount == 5 )
                // We are at the Fifth click, move on.
            else
                Async.handleEvent(this, instance.timer, TimerEvent.TIMER, handleTimerTick, TIME_OUT);

I missed a comma. And a few "instance"s

Yes, you can put async calls in utility classes or wherever you want. That isn't the issue here though.
In your test you call TimerUtil.newTimer()
That code creates a timer and then returns. Then your test returns. At that moment, FlexUnit sees that your test has finished and that there are no outstanding registered asynchronous events so it declares the test a success. Then, a second later, your other method executes and tries to register an async call. FlexUnit has no idea what test this pertains to, or why this call is being made as it is no longer in the context of the original test, hence the message you are receiving that you can only using Async calls inside of a method marked with a Async... as, in FlexUnit's opion, the method that is executing this code no longer has anything to do with a test with an async param.
The best way to think about this is a chain that cannot be broken. As soon as a method finishes executing with, FlexUnit will declare it a success unless we are waiting on something else (an async event of some sort) That is what the Async syntax really does, it tells the framework not to declare this method a success just yet, and that there is something else we need to account for to make that decision.
So, right now, in your newTimer() you don't let the framework know that you will be waiting for an async event. Therefore, when that method and the test method is over, so is the test.

Need info on Date Utility Classes

Hi Experts,
Can someone please suggest me some re-usable date utility classes which I can re-use in my application(preferably date utility classes provided by basis so I dont need to bother about package ) ? What I want to do is pretty simple: Read current date/current month/Year and do basic date calculations.
Best Regards,
Viqar Ali.

Vijay,
I got a few classes(mostly BSP utility classes), but I could not use them due to package dependancy problems. Can somebody please suggest some date utility classes which I can use in my Web-Dynpro applications ?
