Container a = getContentPane(); - Problem

Hello Guys,
As you can use this method successfuly on for JFrame. Is there any possibility to use it on a JPanel?
Basically, I have a class which extends JPanel. I am trying to use this method to design the components very efficiently using .setBounds().
However, I couldn't make it work.
Any Suggestions?
Thanks.

Well,
I have a class which extends JPanel with loads of components. I have extended it in order to control the frames faster. I have 3 different tabs, so basically I create the class and then pass it into Tab.
The reason why I said efficiently, it is really hard to design the components using borderlayout, flowlayout etc.. So I've decided to keep the layout null, and use setBounds instead. However, to use this I also be using getContentPane().
I have tried this -> Container contentPane = getContentPane(); in a class which extends JFrama, it worked fine as JFrame is part of Container. I need to use this in a class which extends JPanel only, to design the components as I want.
Thanks.

Extending JPanel to contain a JRootPane - problems with scroll panes

I am trying to write a JPanel subclass that contains a JRootPane, similar to the way that JFrame contains a JRootPane. The reason that I am doing this is that I would like to be able to intercept mouse events using the JGlassPane facility, but adding the glasspane to the JFrame is problematic since it then intercepts mouse events over all components in the JFrame, including the menu bar. It seems simpler to me to have the JRootPane owned by a JPanel, to give me better control over intercepting events. I've got an implementation working with the JFrame case, but have had to handle many small "gotchas", and at least one more exists. I'm hoping to simplify things by moving away from this way of doing things.
I wrote a straightforward RootPanePanel class that extends JPanel and implements RootPaneContainer, delegating all of the add methods to the JRootPane's content pane. Here's the constructor for RootPanePanel:
public RootPanePanel (LayoutManager layout) {
        rootPane = new JRootPane ();
        rootPane.setOpaque(true);
        rootPane.getContentPane().setLayout(layout);
        super.add (rootPane);
}RootPanePanel also delegates calls like getContentPane/setContentPane to the JRootPane.
To test my implementation, I wrote a main method that looks like the following:
public static void main (String[] args) {
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable () {
    public void run () {
      try {
        JEditorPane editorPane = new JEditorPane ("http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/print_friendly.html?page=declaration_transcript_content.html&title=NARA%20%7C%20The%20Declaration%20of%20Independence%3A%20A%20Transcription");
        JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane (editorPane);
        JFrame frame = new JFrame ("Test RootPanePanel");
        RootPanePanel panel = new RootPanePanel ();
        panel.add(scrollPane);
        frame.add(panel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
        scrollPane.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(800, 600));
        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        frame.setSize (640, 480);
        frame.pack ();
        frame.setVisible(true);
      } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
});Note that I'm not actually using JEditorPane in my application, but it is the simplest component that displays the problem I'm encountering.
When this code runs, it is fine, as long as the JFrame is big enough to display the scrollbars for the JScrollPane. If the JFrame is made small enough, the scrollbars are not displayed.
If I instead add the JScrollPane to the JFrame directly, it behaves as you would expect.
Is this a problem of mixing heavyweight and lightweight components? It doesn't seem like it should be; in both cases the JScrollPane is handling the same client component, the JEditorPane.
Any suggestions/ideas are welcome!

Container TLF text problem!

Hello,
I want to copy this text paragraph from notepad (img1) and paste into a TLF container with 2 columns (img2), but it seems that something is wrong. Please look at the second picture and if anyone has any idea how to solve this problem?

I figured it out, eventually.

ADF Security to J2EE Container Managed Security Problems

Hi al!
I had ADF security enabled in my application. I've added roles and users to embedded OC4J Server Preferences..., configured authorization using pageDefs... (following the Introduction to ADF Security in JDeveloper 10.1.3.2 howto).
For the sake of friendlier user and roles management I decided to go to 2EE Container Managed Security (I want application manager in production environment to be able to manage users in only one place, not in DB table and extra for web app). I followed Frank Nimphius's Database Authentication and Authorization in J2EE Container Managed Security article.
Now I have some problems. I removed users and roles from embedded OC4J Server Preferences... (I believe this are used only for ADF security, am I right?). I can log to application with admin user account (app index page doesn't have any binds and even pageDef), but when trying to access admin pages I get 401 Unauthorized page.
What am I doing wrong, probably I've forgotten something? I'm a bit confused now with users and roles settings and ADF and container managed security.

Do I have to remove this adfAuthentication tags?
I know I've made things a bit complicated for me now and for anyone to help, but I hope I will get at least some pointers what to do now and maybe some explanation about roles in container managed security? Is it enaugh to have security constraints and roles defined in web.xml file or they have to be defined somewhere else also (beside the database)?
Thank you in advance!
Bye

Hi there!
I have another question about this. I've modified a bit DBRolePrincipal class to see what's going on. At the beginning of the equals(Object another) method I added this lines:
log("method equals start",0);
log("another type = " + another.getClass(), 0);
if (another instanceof Principal)
Principal mine = (Principal)another;
log("Principal mine.getName() = " + mine.getName(), 0);
The result is this output (after navigating to page that gives 401 forbidden):

Frank, if you haven't given up on this issue yet could you please try to explain this to me? Why doesn't admin_role principal never get compared in [equals[/i] method?
Thank you!

Custom Actionscript Container (Get Child Problems)

I've extended the Container class to create a custom
component. In this component, I take the children (can be anything:
panels, images, etc) and move them around to different positions on
the screen based on the mouse position. Everything is working
fine... except, I need to capture the names of each child in the
container as soon as it loads and add the names to an array (THIS
ARRAY MUST BE STATIC). The problem that I am having is that I
cannot seem to do it statically. That means that when I change the
index of a child. The change affects the order of the array because
the array is rebuilt every time. I don't want this. Any
thoughts?

You gotta specify your child table recon-field in the process definition mappings as a Key Field. Refer OOTB AD connector and check:
Process Definition -> AD User ->Reconciliation Field Mappings -> memberOf

GetContentPane() problem

Hi everyone,
I new in Swing package and for this reason, there is smth makes me confused about Swings's classes,
I can not keep the idea that why we always use getContentPane() method to add some component to the Frame container or set Layout ??
Thanks

Container (JPanel) refresh problem

Hello,
In fact i have a panel (mainPanel) with a button OK, a another panel which display a specific MyJTable and combo box.
In fact, when I clic OK Button, i want to charge my MyJTable with data depends on comboBox.
First, i display a empty white panel and when i clic Ok i want to display my MyJTable.
JPanel mainPanel = new JPanel();
JPanel emptyPanel = new JPanel();
JPanel combo = new JComboBox();
JButton okButton = new JButton();
MyJTable myJTable;
mainPanel.add(emptyPanel);
mainPanel.add(combo);
mainPanel.add(okButton);I have a refresh problem, i try mainPanel.remove(emptyPanel) and thus mainPanel.add(myJTable), the remove works but the add no :(
In ActionPerformed method when okButton:
myJTable = new myJTable(combo);
mainPanel.remove(emptyPanel);
mainPanel.add(myJTable);
mainPanel.repaint();Thanks for yu help!!

Hi,
have you tried playing with
mainPanel.revalidate();
mainPanel.revalidate();??
Might help

Overflow container Scroll bars problem

Trying to add scroll bar for group body in a fragment. We put Overflow container for the groupbody within the page fragment. But no scroll bars are appearing. Scroll bar comes only if it is in a view.

This question has been restated in this [url http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=57&thread=530550&tstart=0&trange=30]thread. Please reply there so we don't have multiple threads going on at the same time.

Excel containing pivot table - Problem when opening

Hi,
There is jsp that generates an excel with few pivot tables in it. In the open/save dialog, if I save the excel and open it, it displays fine but if it is opened up directly, it gives an error saying "Reference is invalid".
Note: The range for the pivot tables are specified using named ranges ( data is in different sheet from that of the pivot table ) ... but it works fine if saved and reopened.
just confused of this behaviour... any ideas would be greatly appreciated...
Regards...

This seems to be a bug with the Excel. This works fine with Netscape and also should work fine with other browsers. In IE, the temp file is created with a file name that ends with a square bracket at the end( eg. myExcel[1].xls ) and this is contrary to the file naming convention of ms-excel ( should not contain '[' or ']' ).
Only solution is, open the excel file as inline...
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "inline; filename = myExcel.xls");Please advice if my perception is wrong or is there any other work around for this? I have tried using all types of headers when sending the response but nothing helps.
To check this,
Create an excel file and try to save it with a file name that contains square brackets...
Regards...

JS ScriptUI container.children[name] problem

Has anyone any experience accessing controls by name?
The JS Tools reference mentions that a control should have been created using the creation property {name: } syntax, which I obey. Nonetheless, I cannot get the control afterwards.
I have to use this approach because I'm creating containers on the fly, assigning them names with variables, so the syntax container.children[index] is not a way to go for me.
Anyone of knowledge out there?
Regards

Yeah, one might hear it's a feature not a bug, but I pronounce it a 'bug'.
Group containers don't return children controls by their name. You have to use panels instead.
Filed a bug to Adobe, FWIW.

Try this.
if o_grid is initial.
create object <container>
exporting

perform fieldcatalog.
CALL METHOD o_grid->set_table_for_first_display

i_default = 'X'
it_toolbar_excluding = i_exclude
is_layout = wa_layout
CHANGING
it_fieldcatalog = i_fieldcat[]
it_outtab = i_final_act[].
( after that I think you need to call the method for selecting rows.
like what I did in my code is below:
create object event.
set handler event->handle_double_click for o_grid.
else.
call method o_grid->refresh_table_display. )
*Refreshing ALV Grid display
CALL METHOD o_grid->refresh_table_display
EXPORTING
i_soft_refresh = 'X'
EXCEPTIONS
finished = 1
OTHERS = 2.
IF sy-subrc 0.
--Exception handling
ENDIF.
endif.
In this code if your o_grid is intial then it will process all the coding before refresh method else if your o_grid is not intial it will refresh the table which is going to be displayed.
I hope this will work for you
Thanks

Minimise front panel of vi containing timed loop = problem

Is this expected behaviour...
Run the attached VI.
All it is supposed to do is beep every 10 cycles.
When you minimise it and try to restore the front panel though... it locks up for a random amount of time.
I don't think it is supposed to do that. (I'm running it on XP Pro.)
Originally I was chasing this problem in a data acquisition loop. The buffer would overflow and exit the app with an error when it was minimised.
It took all day to track it down to this.
Hmmm... I just tried to save it back to a version 8.0 vi and it doesn't seem to have the same error!

Timed Loop minimised.vi ‏85 KB
minimisetimedloop.png ‏7 KB

I'm using LabVIEW 8.5.1 on two PCs and it does it on both of them.
I just emailed the vi to a colleague and after a few minimise/maximises it locked up on him too.
I've just found that if I remove the left and right data nodes inside the timed loop the bug seems to go away.
Steps to repeat bug:
1. Minimise all windows (Windows+m)
2. Restore vi front panel and run it. (It should start beeping twice a second)
3. Minimise / Restore it rapidly by repeatedly clicking on the vi's Front Panel 'task bar button' (down the bottom).
After a while the beeping will stop when the front panel is minimised and it wont restore. Then after a while (with or without clicking on the task bar button) the front panel will restore and the missed periods will execute very quickly (as the timed loop does what it is configured to do).
I think because of the simplicity of the example vi the bug doesn't show up as often. When I ran it in the real application (too many vi's to post) it crashed every time. In the real application there isn't much going on in the timed loop, it is just used to queue items into a separate consumer loop. The problem is that when the bug occurs, ALL LABVIEW CODE stops executing, not just the code inside the timed loop. So another vi running in parallel (in a daemon) that retrieves messages from a device queue stops and the device buffer overflows.
Attached is a modified vi to demonstrate that code outside the timed loop stops executing too. The bug occurs here on three different PCs, the only common thing I can think of is LabVIEW 8.5.1.

Container updating problem

Hello everyone! I've been working on an applet, it's a login box and I have it designed to where you enter your login information hit enter than an actionPerformed is called which does:
contentPane.removeAll();
contentPane.setLayout(new GridLayout(0,1));
contentPane.add(postLoginBox);contentPane is 'Container contentPane = getContentPane();' which was initialized earlier to display the login boxes.
So I have it like this because I want there to be the login boxes then once a user hits enter and his login information sent I want it to then display a TextArea (postLoginBox). But the problem seems to be that once the user hits enter and the information is sent to the TextArea the TextArea never loads. All the components are removed but there is no textArea. I noticed in eclipse if I resize the applet by using the mouse it will load the textArea box.
Any ideas on how to "refresh" the contentPane?
Thanks!

Doing a contentPane.validate() should solve your problem.

JFrames and Java3D simple problem

Hi ive created a program using jframes in Java and im wanting to move it over to java 3d but im having problems. Ive litterally just looked at java 3d so my knowledge is limited. All i want is to set up my canvas so that i have a Jframe panel on the right and a 3d ball on the left. Here's my failed attempt......

}It Compiles but the 3d ball and the Jframe gui are in different windows but i want them in the same window but i duno how ?

Hi tesla66 I'm sorry if I didn't correct your code, but drop some new code trying to solve the problem. I've used the cube instead the sphere because it's easier to see is rotating but just change "new ColorCube(0.4f)" with " new Sphere( 0.4f )". I wrote even some coments tought they're helpful. Tell me if I solved the problem

GridBagLayout and Panel Border problem

I have 3 panels like
A
B
C
and the C panel has a Mouse Listener that on a mouseEntered creates a border around the same panel and on a mouseExited clears that border.
