DBMS_XMLSAVE.updatexml basic problem - bug?

I want to update a column that is also the key. i.e. \
update salary_tab set salary=15000 where salary=10000
how can I accomplish this using DBMS_XMLSAVE.UPDATEXML?
Trying to figure out for 6 hours no solution :( help!
Thanks in advance!

Hi Pavan,
Thanks for looking into it. However, this does not work - all the examples I found on the net dealt with different key and update columns. My case is when the key and update columns lists are overlapping.
Thus,
Key Column List = SALARY
Update Column List = SALARY
the problem is that I dont know how to specify the rowset xml now.
<ROWSET>
<ROW>
<SALARY>10000</SALARY>
<ROW>
</ROWSET>
how can I specify 2 nodes for salary - one to find which row to update and one to specify the new upated value.
Is this a missing functionality in DBMS_XMLSAVE??

Error while using dbms_xmlsave.UpdateXML and dbms_xmlsave.insertXML

The Record I am trying to insert/update has the following structure
<ROWSET>
<ROW>
<COL1>123</COL1>
</ROW>
</ROWSET>
Table structure is as below
COL1 INT [Primary constraint]
COL2 VARCHAR2(100) NOT NULL [but has default value of 'COL2_Default']
Now since the XML doesn't have the entry for COL2, I am explicitly setting the columns to be updated/inserted using dbms_xmlsave.setUpdateColumn.
I use the logic the following logic to insert/update the table
-- set the primary key column name. This forms the where clause for update statement
dbms_xmlsave.setkeycolumn(l_Context , 'COL1');
-- cXML have the XML structure mentioned above
l_rows := dbms_xmlsave.updateXML(l_Context, cXML);
IF l_rows <= 0 THEN -- which means no rows found for update
l_rows := dbms_xmlsave.insertXML(l_Context, cXML);
END IF;
Now when the excution of dbms_xmlsave.updateXML happens Java Runtime Error is thrown.
ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception: oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: 'java.sql.SQLException: Missing IN or OUT parameter at index:: 5' encountered during processing ROW element 0. All prior XML row changes were rolled back. in the XML document.
The version of oracle I am using is 9.2.0.6.0.
Please let me know if anyone has any idea on this error.

Found maybe an applicable reference...
On http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v4r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.support.was.doc/html/Java_2_Connectivity_(J2C)/1163246.html
it says:
* Application code is missing a setXXX method call somewhere.
* There might be a problem in the Oracle JDBC driver code.
If the latter is the problem than you should or try a different JDBC driver or (which is probably the best solution anyway) create an iTar with Oracle support via metalink.oracle.com

Why do we run into stupid basic problems with firefox?

I have jre1.6_u31 installed on a Windows 7 and the brilliant
firefox keep tell me that I've to install the jre_1.6_u29 missing plugin when I try to run an applet...a simple applet!! The plugin doesn't appear on add-ons manager then i use "check your plugins" and the stupid response is: "For your safety, Firefox has disabled your outdated version of Java. Please upgrade to the latest version."
Running an applet is basic! Why are u making new versions when older ones are better? I' m sick of running into this stupid problems with firefox! Everything works on ie, chrome and safari but not on Firefox!
I' m sick of trying to solve firefox basic problems!
We have a site that has one thousand ore more visits per day...and we only have troubles with firefox! What do I tell the costumers? I' m not going to give them solutions difficult and confusing as usually your solutions are! They are common people not developers as me...they just want the things to work! I gave up and the solution that I give to them now is to stop using firefox and uninstall it. And people ask I chrome is becoming the second most used browser...here is your answer...
I' m a developer and I've to develop I don't have the time patiente to trying solving basic firefox problems. If you don't know how to solve the problems then stop developing this and save us the headaches.

Have you updated Java lately? You say you have jre1.6_u31 installed, but "Java(TM) Platform SE 6 U31" is not showing in the Plugins submitted with your question (click "More system details" to the right of your original question post). To enable, Add-ons > Plugins, and enable the item.
If your OS is 64-bit and you have 32-bit browsers (Firefox) and 64-bit browsers installed, then you need to install both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Java.

JScrollPanel basic problem

Hi,
would be grateful if someone could help out with this basic problem:
I'm using a JTextArea that displays additional text added using the append() method in a java2 1.4 program, but I need it to automatically scroll down to show the latest line of text added whereas the panel by default requires the user to scroll down.
Thanks,
Allan.

try looking at setCaretPosition(int position).

Reporting some proxy problems/bugs

Is there a way to report problems/bugs in the proxy software without having support? I believe this can be done for Java, but what about the proxy?
In our environment we are using the proxy software (currently v4.0.5, but I haven't seen these items in the release notes of the newer versions of the software) in the reverse proxy mode and have encountered what I believe may be a couple of bugs.
Possibly related to a previous poster's "Content-length mismatch" error message, it seems that some app servers respond to an If-modified-since conditional GET request incorrectly by sending a Content-length header along with the "304 not modified response" (there should be no such header in a 304 response). When proxy caching is enabled and the GZip compression filter is used, one result I have seen is the "Content-length match" error message which happens when the incorrectly included Content-length header has a non-zero value. A different result occurs when the incorrectly included Content-length header has a value of zero - the proxy response body gets truncated (completely removed).
A second issue I have seen is with the reverse proxy's handling of a POST with a trailing CR/LF which some browsers (IE) send incorrectly (there should be no such trailing CR/LF in a POST request). The proxy seems to handle the trailing CR/LF for the request/response, however if HTTP1.1 keepalive is used and the POST is followed by a GET request on the same open connection from the browser then the access log entry for the GET request will be broken across two lines.
Hopefully someone from Oracle monitoring these forums will pass these on to the proxy dev team.

Yep, I realize Safari on Windows uses Windows Internet Options to get proxy server info BUT the Windows Internet Options don't provide a place to specify the proxy login information.
As a result, when the browser contacts the proxy it usually (or should) prompt the user for the login info. Safari did the first time and I told it to save the info. Then my login info changed and rather than prompt for it again, Safari sits there and doesn't load any pages.
IE7 uses the same proxy without problems because IE uses the domain login credentials to connect to the proxy server.
Google Chrome uses the Windows Internet Options for proxy support and it prompts me to login to the proxy each time I fire it up and access a website.
Mozilla Firefox 3.0.4 will prompt me for login information if the login info it has stored won't work for the proxy connection.
Opera 9.62 prompts me for the proxy login information each time I fire it up, just like Google Chrome.
Out of all of those browsers, Safari is the only one that can't use the proxy because I can't change the login information for the proxy connection.
Peace...

OWB 11.2.0.1 – Known Problems/bugs resolutions ?

OWB 11.2.0.1 – Known Problems/bugs resolutions ?
==========================================
We are using OWB 11gR2, Java(TM) Platform 1.5.0_17, Oracle IDE 11.2.0.1.0.
We are finding the strange behavior in OWB Design center. Here is the situation.
1) OWB Design Center>Databases>Defined Module> Mappings>MAP1>Mapping Editor>Expression Editor>
Output attributes>Expression Builder
Specify the expression and press OK.
Another Expression Builder opens up with blank window. We need to specify the expression again.
2) Same as above after opening expression Builder, if we go to another apps (eg. SQL Developer, MS Word) and come back expression Builder disappeared from the context.
We find only Expression Editor. Design Center Hangs. It is not responding to any KEYs. We need to kill the application via task manager and re-start.
Are these issues related to OWB client piece or OWB Client+Server piece?
We did not find any events reporting at DB alert Logs for such events. Do we need to set up some trace ON to record such events?
Are there any log files/tables record such events at OWB repository level to trace back?
Do we have OWB 11.2.0.1 known issues/bugs, resolutions list posted somewhere?
Thanks in helping.

We reviewed the release notes, where it says this patch will improve performance (Bug 7359939).
We find another note in metalink (provided by our DBA team) says
Poor Performance of Mapping Validation / Generation in: OWB 11.2.0.1 + Megapatch 10270220 and OWB 11.2.0.2 [ID 1303177.1]
Are we going to face a new problem after applying this patch?
Thanks in helping.

GreenSock Doubling Problem (Bug?)

I've run into an issue where if I set the visibility to an object that is being tweened to 1, GS creates a second instance of the object.
In the attached file, click the 'btn' and notice that a 2nd row of envelopes is created and they are not blitted like the original instance.
Bug or operator error?

Premiere Pro CS6 error - black flashes on frames - Basic 3D bug?

I am currently working on a lyric music video which incorporates video and still image backgrounds with lyrics superimposed over the top in time to the music. I'm adding the lyrics by creating images with the words in Photoshop and then animating them (scrolling, spins, wipes, etc) in Premiere. All was going well until I tried a recent render and noitced that some effects were showing flashes of black on screen during text movement (flips or twists seem to be the culprit). I figured it was a render error but after trying a few different output methods and not curing the problem I realised I was getting the issue on the timeline when scrubbing through frame by frame. I've attached some images to demonstrate the problem. If I open an earlier saved version of the project then effect is fine on render and on scrubbing through the timeline. Have my later saved project files got corrupted at some point? If it was a software or hardware issue I would have expected it to have been happening from the outset but this effect has been fine until now. Is it fixable or do I have to go back a few versions and redo my recent work?
Ok I've just realised while grabbing the attached images that the black frames appear to be occurring on the first frame of each new text still image - I don't know if that helps with identifying the problem?
Ok another update - it appears to be the Basic 3D video effect that is causing the problem - if I remove that and have the text just appear then the black flashes go. But as I said above it worked fine in earlier project versions so it can work and isn't an inherent fault so I really hope I can find a solution and not have to remove the effect.
Really hoping someone can solve this for me, it's only a hobby video not a job but I've put a lot of hours in and am nearly finished so would be pretty bummed if I can't resolve the problem.
Thanks :-)

An update - this is definitely looking like a bug!
Each of the words is a separate Photoshop image cropped to the size of the word and I have then used the Basic 3D effect to rotate each image in turn from -90 degrees to 0 degrees so it appears on screen. Yesterday I tried changing the settings for the first clip and the black square disappeared if I reduced the range to -63 degrees to 0 degrees.
Success! Or so i thought. I moved the the next image and changed the range to -63 degreees to 0 degrees but the black square remained. In face I had to reduce the start rotation down to -58 degrees before the black square disappeared from that image. This progression continued with each subsequent clip needing a futher reduction the starting rotation so by the time I got to the last image I the start rotation had to come down from -90 degrees to around -20 degrees.
Defintely a bug? (It works the same whether I was using negative or positive start angles btw).
I'll try using a different file format for the word images in case it's an issue with Photoshop image

Code alteration - Basic problem or XML-RPC?

I'm trying to alter the following client/server code to create an XML-RPC such that when the client offers an argument eg ?John? then the result of the method call returned to the client would be ?John*John? rather than the result of the equation currently shown.
I'm not sure if it's just my lack of knowledge or something in the basic data types in XML-RPC
Any help much appreciated.

cause of the error:
After some extensive research on the web, it is found that that you are using an UTF-8 encoded file with byte-order mark (BOM). Java doesn't handle BOMs on UTF-8 files properly, making the three header bytes appear as being part of the document. UTF-8 files with BOMs are commonly generated by tools such as Window's Notepad. This is a known bug in Java, but it still needs fixing after almost 8 years...
There are some hexadecimal character at the begining of the file, which is giving error"content not allowed in prolog". No solution is provided for this till now.
Example: suppose your file start with <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>. you will see this in a editor. But if you open this file with any hexadecimal editor you will find some junk character in the start of the file.that is causing the problem
solution:
1) convert your file into a string and then read the file from the forst character that in my case the first character will be "<".so the junk character will not be there in the string and then again convert it into a file.
2) some people are able to solve this problem by changing the "utf-8" to "utf-16". remember only in some case. some times this problem also exits in "utf-16" file.
3) some are able to solve this problem by changing the LANG to US.en.
4) If the first three bytes of the file have hexadecimal values EF BB BF then the file contains a BOM.so you can also handle by your own.
5)Download a hexadecimal editor and remove the BOM.
6) In case you are not able to think furthe then please to more research in internet may be you find some other solution to this problem. But These solution are some type of hack not exactly a solution.

A sample project with basic problems to solve. Lets make it as a tutorial!

The project is attached it's supposed to end up being a simple file manager, so you can browse the files and folders using the list component.
I've done some part which is the attached one. Now I meet some problems since it's my first project and I need some help so I can solve them. I will try to make this project available to everyone because I think in it's end it will really cover the basics you need to know to get started making more complex stuff.
So I zipped the php folder with just 1 file that currently has script for browsing the current directory. At this stage of the development I would only like to be able to make the files and folders that the php returns to be displayed correctly in the list, the files no icon and the folders with the folder.png icon. To have a nice padding so they look good in the list and have a nice hover.
Problems:
1) warning: unable to bind to property 'name' on class 'Array' (class is not an IEventDispatcher)
Note: that's the first problem you will see when you setup the project, change the php server urls and run it.
http://flexponential.com/2009/11/11/binding-warnings-when-using-object-in-a-list -dataprovider/ - this post has some info on the problem but the example is with static mxml data and I am not sure how to fix this when the data comes from the php.
2) what's the proper way to make some customizations on the data received, so to speak I need to check if the type of the file is "dir", that would mean it's a folder and should display the folder icon and if it's not not to display any image infront of the file. I am really not sure how to do that so any solutions are welcome.
3) What's the most convinient way to adjust the padding between each line in the list and padding for the icon and label inside the line.
I think solving these 3 problems will be a huge step forward to finish and have a complete structure which could help more people understand how things work.
Everyones help will be greatly appreciated

Problems / Bugs / Improvements we have found - Experienced users.

Hello there,
I work for an animation / film company and After Effects is an integral part of out production services. As much as we love the program, its not without its flaws. Here are some things we have found after using After Effects day in and day out...
Clone Stamp :
Please can you add a keyframe-able 'offset' feature to the clone stamp source region? It seems that there isn't a great way of doing this without expressions. We found a workaround which is to offset the centre point of the tracker before we do the track, then parent the clone source region to this point. Theres a lot of people online who think the cloner is completely broken for use in video, but the problem is that theres no easy way to parent the source region to a tracker...
Rendering :
Practically every day we turn up to work and find that a lot of renders weren't successful. This causes us lots and lots of unnecessary stress and problems. If there is any stability fixes that you can do then we would be highly appreciative. (Possibly just making it so that the ram is purged after each clip is rendered? - It seems to be a memory problem half the time even though this machine has 64GB of ram...). Renders also seem to be excruciatingly slow at times, even though were using an extremely powerful machine; is there nothing that can be done to accelerate renders and/or use more of the computers resources? We have found that sometimes if we pre-render a comp, it renders pretty instantaneously when in the render queue, whereas we have seen the same comp stuck doing barely anything in the render queue for hours..?
Additionally, can there be a way to change the render path/settings of multiple renders in one go? Unless were mistaken, it seems like each clip has to be manually set up and this is extremely painstaking when working with a lot of files! Also media encoder doesn't seem to render files accurately quite a lot of the time, not sure at all where the problem is but we have totally stopped using this way of rendering now as the renders rarely come out as expected.
Switching between comps:
PLEASE can you create a MASTER FX switch, which will turn off ALL the effects and motion blur in the entire project (not just the comp you are in)? This would be an amazing feature as we spend SO much time just waiting for heavy comps to open just so we can add them to the render queue... Possibly this could not effects the final render, but just allow you to quickly get into a comp? We know that caps lock stops any preview being loaded but there are many limitations to this approach.
Motion blur:
Sometimes we notice that if we have motion blur switched on inside of pre-comps, the blur is being calculated and applied multiple times, which looks horrible and takes forever to calculate... A master motion blur controller is long overdue in After Effects and programs such as Nuke have had this feature since day 1. We would love to see this feature and i'm sure there are many others who would too!
3D controls:
We would love to see better 3D controls for positioning layers etc - if there were improvements on the 3D manipulation tools (Rotate,translate,scale...) to resemble the look of a full 3D program, our lives would be much easier .
Mesh warp / Nulls:
It would be amazing to be able to parent points on the mesh warp to a null object, or at least give every mesh warp point a positional value. This would enable animators to create much improved 2D rigs for characters etc! At the moment the mesh warp isn't very robust and is difficult to get the desired control and effect.
Lens blur/Depth of field:
Can you please add an easier way to see what is in focus and whats not, when using a depth pass? There is a great feature in Nuke which allows u to see where the depth of field is taking place called 'focal plane setup', but it seems that after effects is a case of trial and error when dealing with this kind of task! Would also be amazing if you could simply click the area you want to be in focus (like in Nuke )
Duplicating comps and child comps:
PLEASE can you add an option to duplicate a comp as well as all the comps inside of it? If your dealing with complex projects it is horrific to have to go in and duplicate the comp then ALT drag the duplicate in so your not destroying other comps linked to that comp (hope that doesn't sound too confusing!). There are some scripts when claim to add this functionality but we've had no joy with any of these so far...
Multiple comps / new viewer problems
This is a big one for me and my colleagues. When there are two comp viewers on screen, please can you make the timeline switch to the corresponding comp when you click within the viewer window? Its a huge pain to have to switch between timelines when your doing this! Please can you also add the option to add real time updates in both comp viewers when you have two comp viewers on screen? It seems that only one updates in real time which can be pretty annoying...
I think thats everything for now, it would be amazing if you could rectify some of these problems as i know it would make a lot of people very happy!
Cheers!

Some of the issues you're describing already have fixes underway. Specifically rendering and switching between comps. The Adobe folks have said that the majority of the After Effects team is working on making AE behave differently (much more quickly) in interactivity and rendering. As I've heard it described, it sounds a lot like it'll answer both of those issues.
I believe I speak for all of us who use AE every day when I say, "We cannot wait! (Well, we can wait until the bugs are squashed...but you know what we mean!)" If you missed the initial public discussion on this: Happy New Year! ~ and a question… The overwhelming response to that question was FASTER! And the AE team listened. YAY!
Please have you (and everyone on your team who cares) file feature requests for the rest of these too. It would be great to be able to have the functionality of the True Comp Duplicator script a little more robustly and integrated into AE! And the DOF thing is a biggie too. Adobe - Feature Request/Bug Report Form
The folks on the AE team do listen to feature requests and the more they get for a certain feature, the higher priority it gets.
This is just a forum for users to help each other. Granted, the AE team is great about looking in too, but feature requests are the official way for them to track these things.
And, hey, EVERYONE ELSE reading this; file feature requests too! Adobe wants us to stay subscribed and happy, so let them know what we need/want.

Basic Problems with Attributes and Data Loading

Hi Specialists,
I have a basic understanding Problem. I will explain it with a simple Example. I have to load Employee-Data from a file. For each Employee we have
EmployeeNo
EmployeeName
EmployeeLanguage
My Modelling:
1 InfoObject Employee, with EmployeeNo as Key and EmployeeName as Text. For the EmployeeLanguage I create an additional InfoObject, in order to have an Attribute EmployeeLanguage at the InfoObject Employee. So far so good (I think).
What kind of DataSources have I to create?? It is necessary to load the possible Languages first?? If yes, what kind of DS I have to choose, for loading only "English", "German", "Dutch". Attribute? Text?
If not, the loading process is not possible, because one language exists more than one time in my flat file.
Hope you can help me to see it clear.
Thanks.
Denise

Hi Denise,
I don't think you have to load all possible languages first. This is only necessary if you also want to load texts for EmployeeLanguage (example language german with texts "german", "deutsch", ...).
Specify Employee as data target (in tab Master Data / Texts) and assign your InfoArea. There you will find your targets for texts and attributes, now create InfoSource for your file and assign update rules for both texts and attributes.
Best regards,
Björn

Blur Problems (bug report submitted)

I've submitted a bug report and will submit this again since its a better version of when I sent them before. The problem is this:
- Adobe Acrobat Professional shows blur in certain situations. In another situation, the same file opens correctly. The file below is self-explanatory, i.e.:
1. This is what you see when you do a fresh start, with no pre-existing Adobe processes running. Sometimes though the blur will show up even if its a fresh start.
2. Thats what you see when the file has been closed but Acrobat Professional is still running and open.
If anyone needs the original PDF, it can be downloaded at:
http://www.2shared.com/document/P927Y4Vm/scanned-doc-2.html
In area 1, you can see the glaring difference in visual quality. The blur makes it very hard and irritating to read the PDF. Notice how the blur alternates. Some areas are sharp while others are soft. Area 2 is how it should always look like (crisp).
If you cant see this image properly, it is uploaded at:
http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/4113/adobeacrobatproblurbug.jpg
Adobe Acrobat Professional version, latest: 9.3.4
System: Windows XP
BUG: Adobe Acrobat Professional shows blurry PDFs in certain situations.
===
STEPS TO RECREATE THE BUG:
Use Windows XP. I'm not sure if this shows up in Vista too. I'm sure it does.
1. Download the PDF from:
http://www.2shared.com/document/P927Y4Vm/scanned-doc-2.html
2. In the Windows Task Manager, make sure there are no pre-existing Adobe processes running such as:
AcrobatInfo.exe, Acrobat.exe, Acrotray.exe
3. Open the PDF file you got in #1. Set zoom to 100%.
4. Notice the visual quality. You will probably see blurry areas in the PDF. This matches Area 1 in this screen shot:
http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/4113/adobeacrobatproblurbug.jpg
5. Close the file by doing: File---> Close
Do not exit the program. Go to Task Manager and verify that Acrobat.exe is already running.
6. Open the file you got in #1, again. Zoom to 100% again.
7. Notice now that the PDF does not have any blurry areas. What you see should match Area 2 in the same screenshot:
http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/4113/adobeacrobatproblurbug.jpg

IWeb basic problems? Issue with galleries

Hi,
A while ago I posted a question about a photo gallery I was trying to display, which went something like:
"Hello,
Just finished putting together a website for my brother but having issues with the gallery. I have a portfolio page for his photos. When I'm in iweb the photo album covers scroll nicely between images and link straight to the photo gallery page. But when I put it online I click and nothing happens, as you can see here:
http://www.guycollier.com/guycollier/EdmundCollier_Theatre_Photography_My_Portfolio/Edmund_Collier_Theatre_Photography_MyPortfolio.html
Does anyone know why? This is driving me crazy. I have deleated and uploaded the sight several times from iWeb and also Filezilla and Cyberduck but have the same issues. Please help!
ps. also if anyone knows how to set the title of the page in the browser then that would be great too!"
I have finally got the time to get back to it and have been trying various options suggested by users, including deleating and rebuilding the gallery, but it still doesn't work either online or on a local hosting. It was suggested that I might have some basic iWeb problems. Any idea what these maybe and how they might be resolved?
Thanks
Guy

Thanks for the suggestion. I rebuilt it and without making any changes to the layout it seemed to work ok. However, when I have made some minor changes (putting a frame around the images, changing the layout slightly, removing the navigation menus) it no longer works. Any idea? Might I be deleting something by accident?

Possible Problem/Bug In GridBag Layout ????

+-------------+------------+The obvious thing to do is to
o make the gridwidths of
B, D, E = 2
A, C = 1
D and E should each share one unit of
B's 2 width.
Tried it in my code with my real UI and it didn't work, so then I tested it
out using a Gridbag tool where you can set parameters on the fly quickly and
surely enough it did not work there either.
The GridBagLayout is refusing to split B into 2 portions for the 2nd row
to use in an unalligned fashion. I either get

+--------+--------+--------+ depending on the order in which I add my panels to the layout.
even though my gridx, gridy and widths and heights are properly set for
obtaining the result I want.
Can someone confirm that this is a bug in the GridBagLayout or share the trick for
getting around this?

Thanks for the reply - I can set the weights however
I wish and I never see box D extending even one pixel
into the A-B boundary.This does what you say...
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class TestFrame extends JFrame {
public TestFrame() {
    JPanel panel = new JPanel(new GridBagLayout());
    GridBagConstraints gbc = new GridBagConstraints();
    gbc.gridx = 0;
    gbc.gridy = 0;
    gbc.fill = GridBagConstraints.BOTH;
    gbc.weighty = 0.5;
    panel.add(new JButton("A"), gbc);
    gbc.gridx = 1;
    gbc.gridwidth = 2;
    panel.add(new JButton("B"), gbc);
    gbc.gridx = 3;
    gbc.gridwidth = 1;
    panel.add(new JButton("C"), gbc);
    gbc.gridx = 0;
    gbc.gridy = 1;
    gbc.gridwidth = 2;
    gbc.weightx = 0.5;
    panel.add(new JButton("D"), gbc);
    gbc.gridx = 2;
    panel.add(new JButton("E"), gbc);
    getContentPane().add(panel);
    setSize(400, 300);
    setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
public static void main(String[] args) {
    TestFrame frame = new TestFrame();
    frame.setVisible(true);
}But i'm sure it's not a satisfactory layout because button A does not want to resize horizontally at all. But of course, a mix of grid layouts does the trick:
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class TestFrame extends JFrame {
public TestFrame() {
    JPanel panel = new JPanel(new GridLayout(2, 1));
    JPanel top = new JPanel(new GridLayout(1, 3));
    top.add(new JButton("A"));
    top.add(new JButton("B"));
    top.add(new JButton("C"));
    panel.add(top);
    JPanel buttom = new JPanel(new GridLayout(1, 2));
    buttom.add(new JButton("D"));
    buttom.add(new JButton("E"));
    panel.add(buttom);
    getContentPane().add(panel);
    setSize(400, 300);
    setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
public static void main(String[] args) {
    TestFrame frame = new TestFrame();
    frame.setVisible(true);
}
