Component to front

If you have some overlapping components on a JPanel is there an Object you can call to bring the one you want showing to the front much like :
frame.toFront();except with components on a JPanel.

Just to add. I am trying to add a component A on top of component B, but with the way the compiler works when I add component A it is displayed behind component B. (I am using a null Layout Manager) I want component A to be displayed on top of component B when I add it. I have a JLabel which I am trying to drag over a bunch of JTextFields, but right now the Label shows up behind all the JTextFields instead of on top when it is being dragged.

Method to bring component to front?

Hey all
I am looking for a method that can be used to bring a component to front in my applet. I have a few choice menus that arent showing up and i believe it is because labels are being drawn over them.
The choice menus do not show up at all normally, but they appear just fine if I
setVisible(false) to the labels.
It has always been my understanding that components will show up in the order they are added to the applet. So if the labels are added first, then the menu second - the menu should be on top. However my applet also requires a lot of setVisible(true/false) and I am not sure if that is affecting the layering also. Would setting a component as visible automatically bring it to front, or would it remain where it has been added?
SO, if there is a bring to front method kicking around that would definately solve my problem.
thanks for the help.

If possible could you post your compilable code that simulate your
problem or in short your SSCCE.

How we get the component at front or back in a Jpanel

Move Component To Front ?

Hey,
I have a panel, with some images on it, and I wanted to add a table on it, but the images always hide the table (it happens that the images are on top of the table, when I want the images to be sort of a background).
Is there any way to set the table to always be at the front, on the panel, without using layout managers?
Thanks ;)

From the docs for java.awt.Container:
"Components added to a container are tracked in a list. The order of the list will define the components' front-to-back stacking order within the container. If no index is specified when adding a component to a container, it will be added to the end of the list (and hence to the bottom of the stacking order). "
When you add() your table to your panel, you need to ensure that it is added to the beginning of the list, e.g.
myJPanel.add(myTable,0) ;or use java.awt.Container.setComponentZOrder().

Help bring components to front!

If I have multiple components positioned at the same location, how can I bring one component to front (so you can see it) without giving it the focus?

heres what i'm trying to do:
I have a JList and a JLabel. When the user clicks/drags on the JList, the JLabel will reshape to the location of the cursor.
Right now, the label reshapes correctly, but is BEHIND the JList so you can only see it once you drag well out of the JList. I dont want to hide the JList, but rather have the JLabel appear on top the the JList.

Bring JDialog to Front

Hello,
I would like to know, is there any way to bring JDialog Component to front of all applications before initializing parent frame? Like a splash screen before initializing main frame components? If possible reply with some sample code lines..
Thanks in advance..
Reji

I believe that this is quite OK for a splash window.
import javax.swing.*;
public class Example extends JFrame{
public Example() {
          super("Example of splash page.");
          new Splash(20000);
//for 20 seconds of splash
          buildGUI();
          doOtherThings();
     private void buildGUI(){
          JPanel pan = new JPanel();
          JLabel label = new JLabel("Label");
          pan.add(label);
          this.getContentPane().add(pan);
          pack();
          show();
     private void doOtherThings() {
     private class Splash extends java.lang.Thread {
          private JWindow win;
          public Splash (long millisecs) {
run();
public void run() {
               buildSplash();
               win = new JWindow();
               try{
               sleep(millisecs);//arrange how long to wait before dissappearing
               catch(InterruptedException ie){
                    System.out.println("Ooops");
                    System.exit(-1);
               this.win.setVisible(false);
}/ End of inner class
          private void buildSplash() {
               ;// Do things for the appearance of it.
               // "win" this and that.
               System.out.println("This is a new example.");
     public static void main (String args[]){
          new Example();
You just initialise a Thread and you can parameterise how long the splash window will be showing before the parent window will show up.
I hope this helped.

Problem with Auo Increment field in Database table

HI...
I have a table with Auto increment field.
I am using Sql Server 2000.
I have a Table Component on front end which is binded with that (auto increment) table.
When I call commitChanges() I receive following exception :
Exception Details: java.lang.RuntimeException
Number of conflicts while synchronizing: 1 SyncResolver.INSERT_ROW_CONFLICT row 2 [sunm][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Cannot insert explicit value for identity column in table 'Authorization_Book' when IDENTITY_INSERT is set to OFF.Anybody knows the solution...

The following excerpts are from http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/jfbrown?entry=using_creator_to_insert_into. Do they help?
What about IDENTITY or AUTOINCREMENT or other database-generated columns?
This is highly database dependent. Some databases require you to obtain the key through vendor-specific means. Others say "set the value to null". Some say to not include the column in the INSERT statement.
So how do I exclude my IDENTITY or other column from the INSERT statement?
Use the RowSet's advanced insertableColumns property. Create a boolean[] array with one value for each column in the result. Use true to include the column in the INSERT statement, otherwise use false. The RowSet's property sheet doesn't allow you to set this property (in Creator2-EA2), so set the property in your java code.

SNC using JCO API

I am trying to connect to a SAP Server (having SNC enabled) using JCO
API. I am using a simple java program. I mentioned the following
parameters
jco.client.snc_mode=1
jco.client.snc_partnername=p:CN=IDS, OU=IT, O=CSW, C=DE
jco.client.snc_qop=1
jco.client.snc_myname=p:CN=RFC, OU=IT, O=CSW, C=DE
jco.client.snc_lib=C:/usr/sap/UC6/SYS/exe/uc/NTAMD64/sapcrypto.dll
I have placed the sapcrypto.dll in the Path. I have generated the
Client PSE and Cred_V2 files too. I have placed them in the Path too.
I am using the "$X509CERT$" as user and sending the x509 certificate
information as password.
But I get the following error
(103) RFC_ERROR_LOGON_FAILURE: SNC required for this connection
When I look at the error files dev_w0 (in the work folder) I see the
following error
ERROR => iSignSncServerLogin: insecure transmission of X.509 client
certificate (SNC required) [sign.c 8638]
Any help is greatly appreciate as this is a mjor blocker for our release

1. obviously, the JCO connection (using RFC) is not SNC-protected; otherwise you'd not receive that error information
2. I'm not sure whether you are using the right approach: forwarding a X.509 client certificate via SNC-protected RFC connnection is only intended to work for a small number of trusted middleware components (such as the ITS Agate or a NWAS Java). It is assumed that this middleware component (or a component in front of it, such as a webserver in front of the ITS) is performing a proper SSL handshake in order to validate the X.509 client certificate.
3. Instead of jco.client.user = "$X509CERT$" and jco.client.passwd = ... you should use jco.client.x509cert = ...
Java-based applets running on a user's PC should act as SSL client and submit their https requests directly to the NWAS ABAP (which is the SSL server in that case). It does not make sense to use JCO and SNC to forward externally validated X.509 client certificates - not just because it's much more complex (and increasing the TCO) but also because it's not intended to be used in that way (it simply does not scale).
Regards, Wolfgang
PS: the error is most likely caused because of the missing SNCSYSACL entry (see trace, using note 495911)

Translator Widget broken

Has anyone else experienced a broken translator widget since the iTunes update? All or part of the GUI componants, both front and back show at the same time, and i cannot type in the text fields, or select more than english from the list on the bottom which stays as "undefined". How do i fix this without a archive and install? Is that the only way? Someone talk to me. The recent update 10.4.8 did not fix the issue as it said in the detailed info as "Translation widget improved performance". Thanks.

I also have the same problem. I want to translate from German to English, but the to-field says "undefined", and I can't type in anything, either. And it would be really nice to have it back!

I have several JTextPanes added to a JPanel. I just want the JTextPane that is currently focused shd be painted(visible) fully irrespective of the order in which it is added to the JPanel.

Thanks in Advance
anu

Hey,
Thank u.I solved that pbm.
But one more pbm araise coz of that i think.
Components caret & selected text are not visible.
is it coz of removing & then adding components to JPanel?
I've registered all listeners(Focus etc), when the components obj r created.
It was working before that. ie omitting 3 lines indicated by //new
anu
sample codes from JPanel
public void bringComponentToFront()
     if (focused == null)
     return;
     Vector tmpVector = new Vector();
     int compCount = getComponentCount();
     // bring component to front by inserting it first into the slide
     tmpVector.add((Component)focused);
     for(int i=0; i < compCount; i++) {
     Component tmpComp = getComponent(i);
     if (!tmpComp.equals(focused))
     tmpVector.add(tmpComp);
     removeAll();
     for(int i=0; i < compCount; i++)
     add((Component)(tmpVector.elementAt(i)));
     repaint();
//before focusing a new component,the current order of components r saved
public void saveOrder()
          int compCount = getComponentCount();
tmpVector1.clear();
          for(int i=0; i < compCount; i++)
          Component tmpComp=getComponent(i);
          tmpVector1.add(tmpComp);
//retriving the old order
public void retryOrder()
int compCount = getComponentCount();
removeAll();
          for(int i=0; i < tmpVector1.size(); i++)
          add((Component)(tmpVector1.elementAt(i)));
          repaint();
sample codes from JTextPane
//constructor
addFocusListener(new FocusListener)
     public void focusGained(FocusEvent e)
          parentSlide.saveOrder(); //new
          parentSlide.bringComponentToFront(); //new

Native EyeTV files ( MPEG2) to play in Front Row with MPEG 2 component

Will Front Row recognise and play native EyeTV files (MPEG 2, but with .eyetv suffix) with the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component bought and installed? Also will it playback as 16:9 ratio?
According to Elgato, us UK bods get a 4:3 signal with a sub carrier signal that can be forced to play as 16:9.... as you can see I have no idea what the real technical language is.
So will the component allow 16:9 playback?
Have looked into MediaCentral but it wont install on my intel imac at the mo... and I am oh so desperate to give apple more of my money

No, the QuickTime MPEG2 plugin doesn't support the MPEG2 transport streams that are what El Gato saves to disk.

Fields for creation of BP in cProjects front-end are read-only

Hi everyone,
I'm a beginner in SAP-Development/Customizing so I hope this question isn't too easy
I can't create a Business Partner using the cProjects front-end (Ressources > Staffing) because the necessary fields and buttons are read-only... (> web-Dynpro Component: DPR_ROL_STAFF; View-Info: VI_SEARCH_CREATE)
I'm using CPRXRPM 450_700 patch 0006
The field-control is standard-SAP (0SAP).
My user-account has all cProject-roles + SAP-ALL
I assume i can change the behaviour of these fields in the Field Control but I can't identify which is the corresponding Object Category to apply the changes.
- Is there a documentation which field belongs to which Object Category in Field Control?
- Or can somebody tell me a procedure to find it out on my own?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
generally it is recommended to use transaction BP or ALE distribution to get the business partner be created.
If you would like to create the BP in web UI directly, the user must have the Structural Authorization, see customizing path:
Collaboration Projects -> Resource Management -> Organizational Management.
It is very HR related topic, you may contact a HR consultant to know more details about it.
Kind regard,

SharePoint Foundation 2013 - Search Configuration Issue - 2 App Servers and 2 Front-End Servers

Hi,
We have a SharePoint Foundation 2013 with SP1 Environment.
In that, we have 2 Front-End Servers and 2 App Servers. In the Front-End Servers, the Search Service is stopped and is in Disabled state and in the 2 App Servers in One App Server, Search is Online and in another Search is Starting but goes to Stopped sooon
after.
Originally, we had only 1 App Server and we were running our Search Service and Search Service Application in that. Now since the index location became full and we were unable to increase the drive there, we added one more App Server and now the issue is
Search is not properly getting configured in either of these App servers. What we want to do is run Search only in the new App Server, because we have a lot of storage space for Index locations here, but in the older App Server, not run Search at all. We
tried keeping the Search Service disabled and ran the below PowerShell Scripts, but none of the ones are working. These scripts are creating the Search Service Application, but the error of "Admin Component is not Online", "Could not connect
to the machine hosting SharePoint 2013 admin component" is coming up.
