Corrupted Class File - what exception to expect?

Hi all,
Does anyone know what type of exception to expect in case of a JVM trying to access a corrupted class file?
Lets say ftping a class file to a unix box in a text or something stupid like that.
Thanks

java.lang.ClassFormatError

  • $1.class files - what are they?

    This is probably a really dumb question, but here
    goes....
    Having written an applet, I used the deployment wizard to create
    a jar file, and moved this on to a web-server. When I open a
    HTML document which attempts to call the applet, I get a
    ClassNotFoundException, the class in question being my applet
    class name, but with a "$1" suffix on the name. I noticed that a
    file of this name has been created in my JDeveloper "myclasses"
    directory, and has also been deployed in the jar file. Does
    anyone know what this is for, and how to get round this
    problem? Any help would be much appreciated.

    They are the files with the inner classes of main class, i
    think..... if you have a "pp.java" with a inner class ( such a
    event listener or something like this), you obtain to files
    "pp.class" and "pp$1.class", hope this helps...

  • Corrupted QT file - what went wrong?

    I have a 10 bit Blackmagic MOV file, that all works on the Mac G-RAID array.
    It wascopiedto a PC external drive, and for some bizarre reason, QT Pro tells me it is not a valid video file.
    There were 5 copied at once (Not by me, so I have no idea what was done) and the other 4 files are all just fine & open in Premiere Pro & QT Pro.
    One will not though.
    What is the problem, can it be fixed - or do I need to copy it across again?
    Any thoughts gratefully accepted.

    What is the file format used on the external drive?
    Older formats have a file size limit (2 or 4 GB's) that may corrupt a larger QuickTime file.

  • Should deployed class files execute permission should be 755?

    im getting the following error
    Request URI:/OA_HTML/OA.jsp
    Exception:
    java.lang.ClassFormatError: adb/oracle/apps/xxtra/gtl/webui/XxtraGtlInquiryCO (Illegal constant pool type)

    Although there should be execute permissions on the class file, this issue is not because of file permission.
    There is a JDK bug (http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4165020) for applet classloader.
    For us (since we are not trying to load an applet codebase), this could also be due to corrupted class file.
    upload the file in binary mode , bounce server and retry.

    Edited by: Mubin_Attar on May 19, 2008 6:34 PMIt appears that you typed "java main" or something like that, which means you have a file named "main.class". This is telling you that you don't have such a file.

  • Every time I compress a file over 1.5 Gigs it ends up corrupt any idea what the cause is?

    Every time I compress a file over 1.5 Gigs it ends up corrupt any idea what the cause is?

    Compression depends on repetativeness of characters within the file.  If it can't map those, it won't compress.   Images and programs are much harder to compress for that reason, as they both are basically binary constructs.  Some image software compresses looking at common lines and points of the same color.   Audio files look for the same frequency. Most video formats are already compressed to some extent except full DV.
    And files with DRM get even more dicy, since you really can't bypass the DRM which itself is binary code, not to mention not allowed to be copied.   This forum can't discuss such issues due to the DMCA rules.  As long as it isn't copyright, what are you trying to compress?

  • What are "Name$1.class" files and how do I generate them in Eclipse

    I have the source code of a rather large java application and I want to set up an Eclipse project for it.
    After diffing the WEB-INF directory generated by Eclipse with the one generated by the original maven build script I noticed that there are several files of the form "Name$1.class" which do not exist in the Eclipse output.
    My questions are, what is the purpose of this $1 string in the class file name and how do I generate those in Eclipse?

    ok, but why are they generated in the Maven environment but not in the Eclipse environment?
    To be exact, Eclipse does create inner class files, however when diffing both output directories I have some extra inner class files generated by Maven that are not there in the Eclipse output.
    Maybe there are some java compiler settings for this?

  • What is the syntax for calling function from class file by jsp

    does anyone here knows what is the syntax of how to call a function from java class file by javascript code or any way to call it?
    and where should i put the calling function code? because the function is called depend on the user click.
    for example
    <%=pc.functionName(a,b)%>
    for the variable a and b, how can i get the value from html textbox and put it in a and b...
    urgent needed...
    thx

    Jsp's are executed before the Html forms are created and loaded. Dont try to use a java code function calling on a javascript click. You'll have to explicitly redirect it into a servlet where in you can call the function you want.
    Well! another way could be using AJAX. That seems to be powerfull enough and it might also serve your purpose.
    Hope this helps

  • What is the best way to protect .class files on server?

    I've been working on my website project for quite some time, years in fact. Now I'm at the point where I'm looking into signing up with a web host provider and testing the site live.
    I have some questions and concerns though. My site is made up of Java Servlets and JSP pages.
    My foremost concern is protecting my code. Many suggest obfuscating. If I understand the process correctly, it involves making the code harder to decompile. I also understand that obfuscating isn't a guarantee in protecting code. If someone really wants to use the code, they'll figure out a way to.
    So are there any other options available to protect my code?? I would like to consider as many options as possible.
    Once it is on the web host server, anyone can have access to it. Hope this doesn't sound like a stupid question - Microsoft Word comes with the option to password protect files from being opened, is there not by now some way to implement the same sort of feature with files uploaded to a server?
    Your input is appreciated.

You need to acquire a proper understanding of a web server and its configuration. Your problem can be solved via correct configuration of the server. Nothing to do with obfuscation.So your telling me that once I've uploaded all my .class files and everything else to my host provider, that the people running the server do not have access to it? I find this hard to believe....
    What exactly would I be looking to configure on the server??? Please explain.

  • Cannot run .class file.  What's wrong, please?

    Hi,
    I have installed J2SDK1.4.2_03 in D: drive in folder JavaApplications.
    Have appended the path: ;D:\JavaApplications\bin in System Variable.
    Written a simple program named WhatIsYourName.java and saved in D:\JavaPractices
    At D:\JavaPractices> compile the program using javac WhatIsYourName.java and it is OK
    At D:\JavaPractices> checked directory and the WhatIsYourName.class file is there.
    When typed: java WhatIsYourName
    Error message appears:
    Error: could not open C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2_03\lib\i386\jvm.cfg
    Reinstalled J2SDK1.4.2_03 in D: drive in folder JavaApplications again, same error.
    When I checked the C:\Program Files, there is a bin and lib folders residing in a 1.3.1_07 folder in the JRE folder. The JRE folder is found in a folder called JavaSoft. Is it because of this that the error occurred?
    Could not understand why?
    Please help.
    Thank you very much.
    Theophilus

    Hi ChuckBing,
    You are right. The older version is being found first. After removing the older version I can run the .class file.
    Need to ask you about checking the full path when invoking java which you suggested. At D:\JavaPractices directory am I supposed to type \JavaApplications\bin\java WhatIsYourName ? I don't quite get what you mean.
    Thank you very much.

    I dont want you to be on that list . Here goes my explanation..
    A class is well defined with members and functions
    An abstract class is not defined well as compared to a full fledged class (talking more generically)
    An interface is more abstract.
    I was asking the author who has posted this question to be like a class(very clear)
    and not either as an abstract class or an interface
    Hope i have made it clear..Not in the slightest. This has absolutely no bearing whatsoever on the question asked. Not to mention that classes are classes, and all equal in the eyes of the compiler, be they abstract, concrete or interfaces. It's difficult to see what your point is, to be honest, but I suspect it wouldn't be worth seeing anyway

  • DrClap, schapel, jschell whats better architecture jar files or class files

    What would be a better architecture for deployment. Jar files or class files. We were recently having a debate at work as to generate installation scripts that put jar files on the system where the app is being installed or to make the script generate class files at the desired location.
    It would be good to know as to what you ppl think and what are the pros and cons of both.
    Some claimed with class files it would be easier to put in patches later on and I kinda agree with that. However your thoughts would be appreciated.
    Come on DrClap, schapel, jschell, jsalonen....... I am a fan of yours already

    This, of course, is why topics shouldn't be addressed to individuals - they are likely to never see it. Today is the first time I have seen this, and that is due solely to a search that I was running.
    Why would you use one over the other?
    ----Distribution costs
    It takes more time to send a bunch of class files down the wire than a single jar file. However, it takes more time to send a jar than a single class file. So there is a delicate trade off in a web application where one is using java. If you send the jar every time it is modified the entire jar must be moved. Class files take less time, but all of them must be moved for a new person.
    So in this case if you have a fixed based of users (internal use), and a majority of the files do not change then class files are better. If the user base is transitory and large (external use) then a jar file is probably better.
    ----Usage:
    You can use reflection to dynamically add functionality to an application. If you use a jar file then the application must be restarted for the changes to take effect. If you use class files then the application does not have to be restarted. Obviously the second only works if you have some way to dynamically notify the application that new classes are available - like a database.
    This becomes very relevant if you do not want to restart the application and you do not have a distributed application base in place.
    Also the older classes, even if not used, are still loaded in the application unless it is restarted (presuming a class loader is not used.) Most of the time this does not make difference.
    Since in the above it is likely that there is not a large distribution problem, when the usage is a concern then the best strategy is as class files. They allow the most flexibility and there is unlikely to be any concern at all how it is packaged.
    -------Misc
    Speed. Someone suggested speed. Guessing I would say that the jar file is going to be faster. Once the Sun jvm gets the file it doesn't let go. And as pointed out opening files is rather costly. However, I doubt this is going to be a significant cost on any system. Startup costs, although sometimes annoying, are seldom significant in terms of application performance.
    Security. The is a certain level of security with a jar file. You have one jar file and distribute it to the help desk people. And one of them deletes it accidently. It is going to be a lot easier to figure that out than if they deleted one class file. Additionally it is probably easier to encrypt/decrypt a jar file (if you really must) than class files.
    Dynamic class loading. If you are storing classes in non-traditional places, like a database rather than files, then it is probably going to be easier if you do it as class files.
    Testing. It is easier to replace a class file in a testing environment to fix a bug than a jar file. Particularily if the make process for the jar file rebuilds everything.

  • I followed your help directions on "Corrupt extension files" under "Unable to install add-ons", foolishly deleting the files you told me to. Now firefox won't open. I tried reinstalling firefox but it still won't open. Now what do I do?

    I was trying to install the SEOQuake add on. After clicking install Firefox would hang up saying the script had timed out and asking if I want to stop it or continue. Didn't matter which option I chose nothing would happen. The only way to stop it was to close Firefox and restart. Tried restarting the computer. Still wouldn't install. Tried installing the Outwit add on and got the same error leading me to conclude it was a problem with Firefox, not the add on. I found this help page <http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Unable+to+install+add-ons?s=addons+won't+install&as=s> and did everything it told me to. Finally at the end I got to "Corrupt extension files". I foolishly deleted the files you told me to and now Firefox won't even start! I tried reinstalling Firefox and it still won't start. Tried restarting the computer. I have no idea how to get back to where I was let alone install the add ons I wanted to install. Please help. At this point I'd just be happy to be able to get Firefox working.

    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.<br />
    See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting&#58; Make a new profile]]
