Deploying no java applications using Java Web Start

Hi,
I am new to java web start. Is it possible to distribute non java applications using java web start. I have an APP which can run on a desktop in standalone mode. The app has jusy HTML and Java script files. Is it possible to package this app and deploying using java web start? I am assuming If it is possible, I can make updates to the packaged app in the web servers and the updates will be downloaded next time the app is used provided configurations are correct?
thx

The app has jusy HTML and Java script files. Is it possible
to package this app and deploying using java web start? Not really. Resources for JWS need to be zipped,
while this HTML/JS app. will (I guess) not work from
inside the depths of a Jar (or Zip) archive.
Note that you can organise for those files to be
downloaded and expanded onto a known place
on the user's disk, by using an 'installer' element,
but..
...I am assuming If it is possible, I can make updates to the
packaged app in the web servers and the updates ..installers are only called once, and do not 'update'.

  • How can i built a java application using java debug class on Log4J

    Hi,
    As java API support the MethodEntryEvent, using which I can get the automatic logging statements when the method is entered or exited as HelloExample.main(with argument type).
    Where HelloExample is the class name.
    Main is the method entered with its argument types.
    In some cases I have the o/p as
    -- VM Started --
    ====== main ======
    main -- HelloExample
    callerMethod -- HelloExample
    ====== main end ======
    -- The application exited --
    By using Log4J is there any possibility of getting these sort of o/p along with the loggers supported by Log4J. i mean to say can i built an java application which supports the MethodEntryEvent and MethodExitEvent from java API and also uses the Log4J debugging. I took an e.g. trace example, which (in J2SE 1.4.x or 5.x) will be found in $JAVA_HOME/demo/jpda/examples.jar and unpacking it by
    jar -xvf $JAVA_HOME/demo/jpda/examples.jar i found the com/sun/tools/example/trace/Trace.java and passed the class constructed with logger taken from Log4J. In this case the logging message is displayed on the console. As per the requirement i need to transfer the whole o/p to an output file along with Log4J logger statements. in this case i should not give any command in the cosule except compiling and executing the programme. the programm also should able to run without the main() as i need to integrate Log4J with an application and the code must me application server independent. i need the output as i got using MethodEnteryEvent (shown as above) in case of java application built using Log4J.
    Can any one help me in this regard. can any one give me some suggestion or any programme of this sort. All suggestions are welcomed.
    Thanks & Regards,

    hi,
    can someone help me how to implement logging for method entry parameters and
    method exit return value.
    can someone help me how to use log4j and integrate it to the method entry
    logging and method exit logging.
    Here what i need is without writing the log statements for the method entry and
    method exit i need to log it to the file
    along with other log4j debug statements i provide in the file.I should be able
    to configure whether to enable/disable the logging
    for method entry and method exit. In method entry i should be able to log the
    parameters the method take and in method exit
    i should be able to log te return value to the log file, before the method is
    returned to the callee.
    i hope i am clear
    Thanks in advance.

  • Disk Space "leaking" in Java Application Using java.io.RandomAccessFile

    I have noted this behaviour in both java version 1.2.1 and 1.3.1 on Solaris 5.8.
    I have a java application that is essentially "tailing" a very large log file.
    The program opens a RandomAccessFile in read-only mode and calls readLine on the file as long as the file is getting written to.
    If the file stops getting updated the program assumes the logfile has been moved/rotated/wrapped (by an external process) and the program the calls close and then reopens the file to allow the program to start reading from the new file and to allow the O/S to free up the system resources.
    It appears that the program is not actually closing the filehandle or releasing the disk space and eventually the disk fills up.
    When this happens the program is stopped and restarted and the disk space is freed up.
    We have run the pfiles command against the running process and have confirmed that the old filehandles are still open.
    I have attached what I think to be the relevant code lines below:
    RandomAccessFile filehandle = null;
    boolean reopen = true;
    boolean connected = true;
    while(connected)
    if (reopen)
    while(! new File(filename).exists())
         doSleep (filewaittime);
              filehandle = new RandomAccessFile(filename, "r");
    while (file_being_updated)
    // read from the file etc.
    filehandle.close();
    filehandle = null;
    reopen = true;
    The reopen flag is set to false in code not shown here.
    I have verified that the block of code that calls close() on the filehandle and sets it to null is being executed when the logfile is moved externally.

    Hmmmm. Sounds like a hint to me :)
    I am still experimenting but I will certainly try moving to the latest JDK and report a bug if I don't figure this out on my own.
    Thanks.

  • Deploy Forms 10g applications using Java Web Start (JNLP)

    I wonder if anybody can help me out to use WebStart for my Oracle Application . Currently our application is running using Jinitiator.recently i got to know that webstart is another method to run webforms as just as Client/Server ,am not able create an exact JNLP file and i could't see much posts related to this.
    Thanks & Regards
    Najeeb.M

    You can avoid extra windows simply by setting separateFrame=false in the formsweb.cfg. Another helpful tip, if your page does not contain any extra html, is to set the height and width as follows:
    HEIGHT=100%
    WIDTH=100%
    This will cause the applet container to use all available browser window space. It will also cause the applet container size to dynamically adjust if the browser window is resized. This tends to create a more professional look-and-feel.

  • Executing Jar Application using Java Programs

    Hello there,
    How can I run a java application using java programs.
    Desc:
    public class someapp {
       public static void main(String[] ext) {
           // How can I execute a jar application from here through java code
    }

    You could use java.lang.Runtime.exec(). Another way could be loading the main class of the jar file and invoking its main method dynamically.

    Hello John,
    Thanks for the link. We have performed the steps in this blog:
    1) Create DC Project "External Library" with name js/jars:
    - Add *.jars in folder Libraries.[Screenshot Libraries|http://img846.imageshack.us/img846/8395/jsjars.jpg]
    - Add archives (*.jar) to public part with name ExternalLib. Which option to choose?
    a- Provides an API for developing/compiling other DCs (Option chosen)
    b- Can be packaged into other build results (eg SDAs)
    - Development Component -> Build
    Step 1 is OK.
    2) Create "J2EE Server Component / Library" DC with name js/lib:
    - Add Used DC -> public part project ExternalLibrary -> "ExternalLib"
    - Specify both build time and run-time dependency here and strong.
    - Generated SDA file in <var>gen/default/deploy</var> How do we check that it contains <var>js.jar</var>?
    - folder gen/default/plublic/defLib/lib/java then you meet *.jars files again. is OK.
    - Development Component -> Deploy.
    - Go to Visual Administrator. We found the library js/lib, but has no associated *. jar. It is the problem.[Screenshot Visual Administrator|http://img542.imageshack.us/img542/5537/visualadminlib.jpg]
    3) Create "WebDynpro" DC with name pdf_jasper
    - Add used DC (defLib) to WebDynpro DC with option "Build time".
    - WebDynpro References -> Library references --> add <var>jslib
    - Deploy
    - Run error: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: net/sf/jasperreports/engine/JRDataSource

  • Is it possible to run a java application within a web browser?

    Hello everyone here! I have a question about running a java application within a web browser and I would appreciate it very much if anyone here can give me some answers.
    I have a standalone java application written with AWT. Basically this free application lets users to select spectral lines from a big file based on some criteria and plot those selected lines. Yes, it is a very simple application. Now I want to run this application within a web browser so that users don't need to download the application from the ftp site and thus don't need to install in their machine. Is it possible to run this application within browser? If yes, can we get the same plotting function as we run the application separately and where should I start out?
    Thanks in advance!

  • Can we run a java application using Runtime.exec()?

    Can we run a java application using Runtime.exec()?
    If yes what should i use "java" or "javaw", and which way?
    r.exec("java","xyz.class");

    The best way to run the java application would be to dynamiically load it within the same JVM. Look thru the class "ClassLoader" and the "Class", "Method" etc...clases.
    The problem with exec is that it starts another JVM and moreover you dont have the interface where you can throw the Output directly.(indirectly it can be done by openong InputStreams bala blah............). I found this convenient. I am attaching part of my code for easy refernce.

    Thanks

    Normal CORBA (as in Java IDL) is probably way too complicated for what you're trying to do, unless you're thinking of someday having the programs talk with non-Java programs.
    I'd start with Java RMI rather than RMI-IIOP since you can probably find more tutorials and docs on it (though the RMI-IIOP 1.4 docs here are really quite good). That way, you're writing everything in Java, at least.
    For remote object systems, all the advantaged of object oriented programming come into play, especially extensibility. What if you need to change the wire format to add more information in your socket system but need to maintain compatibility with older clients? What if you need to add security or handle multiple clients at once? What if you'd rather rely on existing serialization methods rather than code your own wire format for everything you want to send (making you write more code)? You can serialize any Java Serializable over Java RMI. That lets you send things without violating encapsulation. What if you want to talk to programs that aren't written in Java? What about automatic failure recovery if the server crashes? etc etc.
