How to call methods from within run()

Seems like this must be a common question, but I cannot for the life of me, find the appropriate topic. So apologies ahead of time if this is a repeat.
I have code like the following:
public class MainClass implements Runnable {
public static void main(String args[]) {
Thread t = new Thread(new MainClass());
t.start();
public void run() {
if (condition)
doSomethingIntensive();
else
doSomethingElseIntensive();
System.out.println("I want this to print ONLY AFTER the method call finishes, but I'm printed before either 'Intensive' method call completes.");
private void doSomethingIntensive() {
System.out.println("I'm never printed because run() ends before execution gets here.");
return;
private void doSomethingElseIntensive() {
System.out.println("I'm never printed because run() ends before execution gets here.");
return;
}Question: how do you call methods from within run() and still have it be sequential execution? It seems that a method call within run() creates a new thread just for the method. BUT, this isn't true, because the Thread.currentThread().getName() names are the same instead run() and the "intensive" methods. So, it's not like I can pause one until the method completes because they're the same thread! (I've tried this.)
So, moral of the story, is there no breaking down a thread's execution into methods? Does all your thread code have to be within the run() method, even if it's 1000 lines? Seems like this wouldn't be the case, but can't get it to work otherwise.
Thanks all!!!

I (think I) understand the basics.. what I'm confused
about is whether the methods are synced on the class
type or a class instance?The short answer is; the instance for non-static methods, and the class for static methods, although it would be more accurate to say against the instance of the Class for static methods.
The locking associated with the "sychronized" keyword is all based around an entity called a "monitor". Whenever a thread wants to enter a synchronized method or block, if it doesn't already "own" the monitor, it will try to take it. If the monitor is owned by another thread, then the current thread will block until the other thread releases the monitor. Once the synchronized block is complete, the monitor is released by the thread that owns it.
So your question boils down to; where does this monitor come from? Every instance of every Object has a monitor associated with it, and any synchronized method or synchonized block is going to take the monitor associated with the instance. The following:
synchronized void myMethod() {...is equivalent to:
void myMethod() {
    synchronized(this) {
...Keep in mind, though, that every Class has an instance too. You can call "this.getClass()" to get that instance, or you can get the instance for a specific class, say String, with "String.class". Whenever you declare a static method as synchronized, or put a synchronized block inside a static method, the monitor taken will be the one associated with the instance of the class in which the method was declared. In other words this:
public class Foo {
    synchronized static void myMethod() {...is equivalent to:
public class Foo{
    static void myMethod() {
      synchronized(Foo.class) {...The problem here is that the instance of the Foo class is being locked. If we declare a subclass of Foo, and then declare a synchronized static method in the subclass, it will lock on the subclass and not on Foo. This is OK, but you have to be aware of it. If you try to declare a static resource of some sort inside Foo, it's best to make it private instead of protected, because subclasses can't really lock on the parent class (well, at least, not without doing something ugly like "synchronized(Foo.class)", which isn't terribly maintainable).
Doing something like "synchronized(this.getClass())" is a really bad idea. Each subclass is going to take a different monitor, so you can have as many threads in your synchronized block as you have subclasses, and I can't think of a time I'd want that.
There's also another, equivalent aproach you can take, if this makes more sense to you:
static final Object lock = new Object();
void myMethod() {
    synchronized(lock) {
      // Stuff in here is synchronized against the lock's monitor
}This will take the monitor of the instance referenced by "lock". Since lock is a static variable, only one thread at a time will be able to get into myMethod(), even if the threads are calling into different instances.

How to configure Outlook 2013 to call direct from within the application without using Lync 2013?

I have Outlook 2013 running on Windows 7 Pro 64-Bit with Lync 2013 (Office 365 Pro). We are using a 3rd party TAPI app from FortiVoice. WE would like to be able to place calls directly from
within Outlook either by selecting a telephone number within an email and/or via the PEOPLE (Contacts) area.
What guidelines should we use to enable this feature and not have Lync 2013 intercepting the process i.e. let OUTLOOK handle placing calls?
Thanks in advance for any feedback provided.

Hi,
There seems no solution for this issue so far.
Here is a fix for older versions of Outlook, maybe worth a try.

Problem calling servlet from within a jsp

I have a servlet which obtains images for a page
http://bychance.ca/servlet/ImageServlet?PhotoId=AJ-LA-4008
I use the servlet from within a jsp
<img src="servlet/ImageServlet?PhotoId=<%=rs.getObject("ID")%>" border="0">
for some reason it does not work, the images are never called. I have another servlet which is called the same way and it works fine
<img src="servlet/ImageServletLarge?PhotoId=<%=strPhotoId%>" border="0">
Thank you all for your time

this is my servlet code. Like I said it works fine in another servlet
rs.next();
byte[] bytearray = new byte[rs.getInt(1)];
int size=0;
InputStream sImage;
sImage = rs.getBinaryStream(2);
response.reset();
response.setContentType("image/jpeg");
while((size=sImage.read(bytearray))!= -1 )
response.getOutputStream().write(bytearray,0,size);
response.flushBuffer();
sImage.close();

Where to log after calling BSSV from within C BSFN?

I called a BSSV object from within a C BSFN. This BSSV object will return E1MessageList. I want to know where can I log these E1 Messages from within the C BSFN? Any documentation about this is greatly appreciated.
I'm using E900 and JDeveloper 11g.
Thanks

Hello,
Saw your query and don't know if this is still an issue for you ?
You are calling a BSSV from within a C BSFN meaning you are consuming from that BSSV an external web service.
The E1MessageList generated in the BSSV you can not return as such to the calling BSFN.
I would suggest you simply create a new logging BSFN suitable for your specific purposes with a DSTR reflecting the parameters of the E1MessageList object such as ErrorAlphaDescription, ErrorDataDictionaryItem, ErrorFileName, ErrorGlossaryText, ErrorLevel, ErrorSourceLineNumber, etc...
Just before the finishInternalMethod you can read through the E1MessageList array and parse out the data. For every element found you call your custom logging BSFN which in turn can then write this data to a file or whatever.
Hope this helps!

Help!How can I find the name of a calling procedure from within a procedure/function?

Is there anyway to find out the name of calling procedure(database) from within a database stored procedure/function? This is required for creating an auditing module.
Thanks,
Abraham
===========
email:[email protected]

You can use this query to get the procedure names that are calling your procedure.
SELECT name FROM all_Dependencies
WHERE upper(referenced_name) = 'YOUR_PROC_NAME'
In your procedure, you can get these values into a cursor and then use them one by one.
Hope this would help.

Is it possible to call msync from within an EVB Application?

Does anyone know how to run mSync from within an embedded visual basic application?
Some sample code or documentation would be particularly welcome.

The following is taken from the Windows CE documentation that ships with 9i Lite:
Table 3-16 ISyncOption Public Properties
username -> Name of the user.
password -> User password.
syncParam -> Synchronization preferences. See Section 3.7.2.4, "COM Interface SyncParam Settings" for more information.
transportType -> Type of transport to use. Only "HTTP" type is supported currently. The default value is HTTP.
transportParam Parameters of the transport. See Section 3.7.1.5, "Java Interface TransportParam Parameters" for more information.
syncParam documentation is (also taken from the same document):
The syncParam is a string that allows support parameters to be specified to the synchronization session. The string is constructed of name-and-value pairs, for example:
"name=value;name2=value2;name3=value3, ...;"
The names are not case sensitive, but the values are. The field names which can be used are listed in Table 3-17.
Table 3-17 COM Interface SyncParam Settings
"reset" -> N/A Clear all entries in the environment before applying any remaining settings.
"security" -> "SSL" "CAST5" Use the appropriate selection to choose either SSL or CAST5 stream encryption.
"pushonly" -> N/A Use this setting to upload changes from the client to the server only, download is not allowed.This is useful when data transfer is one way, client to server.
"noapps" -> N/A Do not download any new or updated applications. This is useful when synchronizing over a slow connection or on a slow network.
"syncDirection" -> "SendOnly" "ReceiveOnly" "SendOnly" is the same as "pushonly". "RecieveOnly" allows no changes to be posted to the server.
"noNewPubs" -> N/A This setting prevents any new publications created since the last synchronization from being sent, and only synchronizes data from the current publications.
"tableFlag [Publication.Item]" "enable" "disable" The "enable" setting allows [Publication.Item] to be synchronized, disable prevents synchronization.
"fullrefresh" -> N/A Forces a complete refresh.
"clientDBMode" -> "EMBEDDED" "CLIENT" If set to "EMBEDDED", access to the database is by conventional ODBC, if set to "CLIENT" access is by multi-client ODBC.
Example 1
The first example enables SSL security and disables application deployment for the current synchronization session:
"security=SSL;noapps;"

Hyperlink from within a Word Document to a specific page within a PDF document.

I was hoping that someone would be able to assist me. I would like to create a hyperlink (used as a citation) on my Word document that opens directly to a specified page within a PDF document (possible other word docs and so on, but less
often). How do I go about performing this? Another note, all the documents would reside within a SharePoint site.

I am not a Word guru, but I don't think you can run a macro from a hyperlink. But you can create an active X label that runs a macro when clicked. You can use the following macro to go to a specific page in a PDF file.
Sub OpenPDFPageView(DisplayPage As Integer)
'In order to use the macro you must enable the Acrobat library from VBA editor:
'Go to Tools -> References -> Adobe Acrobat xx.0 Type Library, where xx depends
'on your Acrobat Professional version (i.e. 9.0 or 10.0) you have installed to your PC.
Dim PDFApp As AcroApp
Dim PDFDoc As AcroAVDoc

PDFPath = "C:\Users\doudou\documents\test1.pdf"

How to call Oracle Form within Oracle Form?

Hi,
I have a requirement to call a customized Oracle Form from standard Oracle Form (Special Information screen) and vice versa.
Then need to display the person detail accordingly.
Is it possible to be done? Appreciate guidance on this item.
Thanks and Regards,
SC

Veerendra,
Sounds like you are using the Oracle E-business Suite (EBS). If that is the case, opening a form is different in the EBS than it is in a non-EBS Forms application. You have the register the Custom Form in the EBS for starts.
This question should be posted in the General EBS Discussion forum not here. Also, I recommend you take a look at the Oracle Applications Documentation and find the "Oracle Applications Developer's Guide".

Calling JNI from within a ejb

Hi,
I'm trying to call a native method from a EJBean class,using iPlanet App Server, after deployment, when i run, I'm getting the following error,
"com.netscape.server.eb.UncheckedException: java.lang.Error thrown by impl nextgensecurity.NgtnSecurityBean@1ade762, err = java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: validateinHSM "
But the same thing is working when tried with a simple java class,
can any one help regarding this ASAP,
Thanx in advance
Kiran

Hi Joe,
Thanks a lot for ur reply,
But the LD_LIBRARY PATH is set to the user that runs the App Server, Since it is throwing a UnsatisfiedLinkError, there must be a problem with the link only(i.e calling native method).
The flow of data is as follows
1 A method from ejb calls another java method in an other java class which is in the same jar file,passing the actual arguments.
2 That java method calls the Native methos residing in the same class file
3 The Native mentod calls a c function as usual
My ejb is working fine up to the Native Method call, at this point it is throwing an error
All my java files are in a package, and my .h file contains package name in the prototype of c function
If you get any ideas please mail me ASAP
ThanQ
Kiran

Calling stored procedure from within container TX

Hi
I am calling a stored procedure that resides locally (Oracle) from within a session
bean after updating a number of ejb's. The stored procedure works fine if it performs
a simple delete. However, the stored procedure is in turn calling another stored
procedure that may reside in a different db. In such a case the update to the
ejb's in not reflected at all. Is this possible to do this within one tx? BTW
there is a reason I'm not calling the remote SP directly.
Thanks

Hi,
I am not sure if I fully understand your question, but here is a list of points which you
should check:
- transaction boundaries
- transaction isolation level
- XA datasources and drivers
- are the changes from the SP commited properly to the database ?
- also note that WLS5.1 (if you are using it ?) supports 2 phase commit only with a
single datasource

Calling a java application from within another class

I have written a working java application that accepts command line parameters through public static void main(String[] args) {} method.
I'm using webMethods and I need to call myapplication from within a java class created in webMethods.
I know I have to extend my application class within the webMethods class but I do not understand how to pass the parameters.
What would the syntax look like?
Thanks in advance!

why do you want to call the second class by its main method ??
Why not have another static method with a meaningfull name and well defined parameters ?
main is used by the jvm as an entry point in your app. it is not really meant for two java applications to communicate with each other but main and the code is not really readable.
Have a look at his sample
double myBalance = Account.getBalance(myAccountId);
here Account is a class with a static method getBalance which return the balance of the account id you passed.
and now see this one, here Account has a main method which is implemented to call getBalance.
String[] args = new String[1];
args[0] = myAccountId;
Account.main(args);
the problem with the code above is
main doesn't return anything so calling it does do much good. two the code is highly unreadable because no one know what does the main do... unlike the sample before this one where the function name getBalance clearly told what is the function doing without any additional comments.
hope this helps.... let me know if you need any additional help.
regards,
Abhishek.

In Captivate 7, how can I call another action from within an action?

I have a conditional action called FakeSuccessRewind. Now I need to call another function called ShowGrayBalloons02 from within its Else statement, but I couldn't find something like "Execute Advanced Action." Can anybody share some tips here? Thanks!
Below are screenshots of my two actions:
1) FakeSuccessRewind (if/else). Here I need to call the 2nd action from the Else statement, underneath the statement Go to the next slide.
2) ShowGrayBalloons02. Note this function has five seperate runs when the variable is decrementing from 5-1.
Thanks a lot!
Melissa

You can't, you need to add the other action into the first one.

ORA-14551 Call to a proc that performs INSERT from within a FUNCTION

Anyone,
I have written a number of functions that serve to convert an old_value to a new_value. But there are some times when the conversion fails. I wish to log those exceptions into a table and move on. I undertand FUNCTIONS are not to insert data but that is why I created a PROC and want to be able to call it from within the FUNCTIONs.
Is there any way to get around the ORA-14551 error?
Here is what I have:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION MAXIMO.fcn_get_worktype
( worktype_IN IN varchar2,
    siteid_IN IN varchar2)
RETURN varchar2 IS
var_worktype varchar2(5);
BEGIN
     IF siteid_IN IN ('ML','OK','BE') THEN
        BEGIN
             SELECT NVL(NEW_WTYPE,NULL)
            INTO var_worktype
             FROM MAXIMO.MAX411_WBK_WORKTYPE$
             WHERE OLD_WTYPE = worktype_IN;
        EXCEPTION
            WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
                MAXIMO.SP_CONVERSION_EXCEPTION('WORKTYPE', 'WORKTYPE', worktype_IN, siteid_IN);
                var_worktype := 'XX';
                 RETURN var_worktype;
        END;
    END IF;
    RETURN var_worktype ;
END;And here is my PROC:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE MAXIMO.sp_conversion_exception (table_IN IN VARCHAR2, column_IN IN VARCHAR2, value_IN IN VARCHAR2, tab_ID IN VARCHAR2)

BEGIN
    INSERT INTO MAXIMO.MAX411_CONVERSION_EXCEPTIONS

        WHEN DUP_VAL_ON_INDEX
            THEN

You need a PRAGMA AUTONOMOUS_TRANSACTION in your exception procedure, eg:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE MAXIMO.sp_conversion_exception (table_IN IN VARCHAR2, column_IN IN VARCHAR2, value_IN IN VARCHAR2, tab_ID IN VARCHAR2)
IS
