Deprecated method in Environment class

Weblogic recommends the following method calls to open a secure connection to a
server, however the setSSLClientCertificateFromServer method has been removed
since 4.5. What is the replacement, and if there is none, what is the work around?
thanks,
Bob
Environment e = new Environment();
e.setProviderUrl("t3s://server2.weblogic.com:443");
e.setSSLClientCertificateFromServer();
e.setSSLServerName("server2.weblogic.com");
e.setSSLRootCAFingerprints("ac45e2d1ce492252acc27ee5c345ef26");
e.setInitialContextFactory("weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory");
Context ctx = new InitialContext(e.getProperties())

After changing deprecated methods in Thread Class

I have changed the deprecated methods suspend() and stop() with JDK1.2.2 methods wait() and thread = null respectively. I wanted to know the affects after changing when I actually run the application.

For one thing, "thread = null" won't stop the thread. In fact it will have no effect on the thread at all.

FInding the Replacements for deprecated methods

I am new to using the Java environment, having been mostly a VB/VB .NET and web developer...so please forgive me if this is a dumb question:
I inherited some java code that is an extension to a 3rd party app. It was originally written under JDK 1.2.2 (I think), and I am now trying to recompile under JDK 1.4.2, using the Borland JBuilder X IDE.
Everything seems to be OK, except that I get two warning messages about deprecated methods:
getFormComponent().setFormProperties()
getFormComponent().getAllFormProperties()
I probably should have checked more, but these names would appear to be standard java classes. What methods should I be using instead? And more importantly, how do I go about looking up the current methods?
Thanks in advance.

I was coming to that conclusion as well...unfortunately, the 3rd party SW vendor does not appear to have updated their supplied documentation - all of the code examples still use the deprecated methods, and their HTML help doesn't return anything when I search for the method names.
Looks like a call to their technical support line...
THANKS for the prompt reply.

Deprecated methods in 10.1.3

Many methods in 10.1.3 are marked as deprecated.
For example, class oracle.toplink.publicinterface.Descriptor is replaced by ClassDescriptor and RelationalDescriptor where getQueryManager() is deprecated with no replacement method.
Another example, in oracle.toplink.sessions.Session interface, method containsObjectInIdentityMap is deprecated and no replacement is specified.
I understand those deprecated methods will probably be removed in the future TopLink release. My question is: will TopLink provide the functions currently implemented in those methods, i.e. replacement methods?
Thanks.
Haiwei

Haiwei,
Yes the work done in 10.1.3 to add formal support for non-relational mapping (Object-XML and EIS/JCA) did require some refactoring of the descriptor class. In the end the previous Descriptor class was deprecated in place of a new ClassDescriptor hierarchy. This work is backwards compatible but some of the deprecated methods were not properly Java Doc'd with their new replacement.
getQueryManager() -> getDescriptorQueryManager() - New method on ClassDescriptor
All of the cache access methods have been refactored into a new IdentityMapAccessor class. This is available from any session using getIdentityMapAccessor().

Removing deprecated methods from legacy source?

What does one do about deprecated methods in legacy code?
As new versions of the compiler seem to keep supporting the deprecated methods (just offering warnings), there is no reason to invest the resources to update the source? I don't mean methods such as:
java.lang.Thread stop(),
I am thinking of methods such as:
java.awt.Window show();
Will there ever be tangible consequences to not stopping using deprecated methods? Will code with deprecated methods eventually break?
Edited by: dpxqb on May 7, 2010 9:50 PM

There's often an "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" mentality around deprecated methods and classes. Whether that's appropriate or not depends on the individual case. Any deprecated method/class may be removed in any future release, but you have to balance the risk of that happening against the cost of replacing it. Some methods/classes will probably never go away--like Vector, for instance. So there's not much benefit to doing a search/replace on a large codebase.
It depends on your analysis of the various risks and rewards in your particular situation.

How I make deprecated method in JB4

Hi, i make deprecated method like this:
* @deprecated
public String fillCharsToLimit(String value, int limit, char chr, boolean fromFirst) {
value = value.trim();
if (value == null || (value.length() == 0 && limit <= 0))
;//do st
(in project properties i enable Show deprecations)
I except that compiler say me warning.
Its ignore deprecation in my code, but when I use deprecated method from JDK all is OK, only my method no why?
Thanks DK

You don't get a deprecation warning if the deprecated class or method and the code that uses the deprecated class or method are compiled at the same time. See Bug 4216683 http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4216683.html for details.

Static methods in startup class

I have declared few static methods in startup class. What will happen
          once startup class is executed in cluster environment, will the access
          to those static methods be clustered and replicated across the
          clusters. How exactly the startup class behaves in clustered
          environment.
          I will appreciate an urgent response.
          Thanks,

          No.
          > How exactly the startup class behaves in clustered environment.
          It is run on each server that it is configured to run on. The method calls
          to the startup class will all be local unless you do some special work to
          force it to be otherwise.
          If you want to have something done once and only once in the cluster, or
          coordinate stuff like that, then either use a shared resource (such as the
          database) to coordinate it all, or use Coherence, which lets you share and
          coordinate access to data among all the servers in the app tier.

File handling deprecated method - which one?

I have this code, it should basically use the lines of text in a file and use them to construct nodes in a JTree. The compilation error is that the class uses a deprecated method - so does anybody know what method is the problem and what I should use?
private void createNodes(DefaultMutableTreeNode top)
   DefaultMutableTreeNode anode = null;
   File theFile = new File("categories.txt");
try
DataInputStream din1 = new DataInputStream(new FileInputStream(theFile));
    //while (din1.available() !=0)
    while (true)
       String topic = din1.readLine().trim();
       //set the string as a tree node
       anode = new DefaultMutableTreeNode(topic);
       top.add(anode);
     din1.close();//close the file handle
     catch (Exception e)
          System.err.println("File input error");
}//end of method

If you compile with deprecation it will tell you specifically.
I think it is:
javac -deprecation ...
The only method from below that I think it could be is readLine() in DataInputStream...
If you are reading text...try:
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(theFile));
String topic;
while ((topic=br.readLine())!=null)
    anode = new DefaultMutableTreeNode(topic);
    top.add(anode);
br.close();

DocCheck comments on deprecated methods

I am using the DocCheck utility to check the comments in my java packages, classes and methods. Methods that are deprecated have a @deprecated tag in the method comment, but DocCheck then complains about missing @params, etc. Is there any way that I can suppress the checking of deprecated methods?

was just giving the way old doccheck tool a try - found it to be really useful
and I ran into the problem mentioned here, I wished, doccheck wouldn't check deprecated methods ...
so, what has happened to

Anyone still using doccheck? Are there any other tools, I mean, maybe doccheck will fail on some javadoc features introduced with Java 5 or 6 or ... 11 ;-)
I like it! E.g., it gave me hints, to add @see in my getter and setter methods ... cool stuff!

Hi,
How often does this occur? Is this consitently reproducible with certain code? Is it always that code that has the problem? Can you generally reproduce this in a test environment?
For issues regarding 3rd party libraries that cannot be reproduced with a source code testcase, I'd generally recommend testing latest software versions if that's an option.
If the behaivor still occurs on current versions, it may be best to open a SR with support so we can get some tracing, and also a memory dump of the access violation to see if we can match it to known issues. You can get a memory dump via setting ODP tracing to level 8, or also via the use of adplus, debugdiag, etc.
Hope it helps, but realize it may not,

Returning a HashMap K, M from a method of a class typed M

So, this is what I have. I have a class parameterized for a bean type of a collection it receives, and in a method of the class, I need (would like) to return a HashMap typed as <K, M> as in:
public class MyClass<M> {
private Collection<M> beanList;
public HashMap<K, M> getMap( /* what do I do here */ );
}I tried to cheat from looking at the Collections.sort method, knowing it uses the List type in its return type as in:
public static <T extends Comparable<? super T>> void sort(List<T> list)So, I am trying:
public HashMap<K, M> getMap(Class<K> keyType)But, it is telling me I need to create class K.
So... how does the Collections.sort method get away with it and I can't????
I suppose I could write the method as:
public HashMap<Object, M> getMap()but became somewhat challenged by my first guess.
Any ideas... or just go with the HashMap with the untyped key?

ejp wrote:
provided K is inferable from the arguments.Or from the assignment context:
Set<String> empty = Collections.emptySet();
Otherwise you have to parameterise the class on <K, M>.You may also specifically provide K when you use the method if the context doesn't give the compiler enough information or if you want to override it.
Example:
Set<Object> singleton1 = Collections.singleton("Hello"); //error
Set<Object> singleton2 = Collections.<Object>singleton("Hello"); //fineEdited by: endasil on 14-May-2010 4:13 PM

Function Module to open a new session displaying a method of a class

Hello All,
I have a method A of class B.
Now, in my current session, I have a button. When the user clicks on this button, what I expect is that a new session be opened and in the new session method A of class B be displayed.
This is similar to the debugger, wherein, in the debugging mode, we can bring up the context menu in the Source Code (Edit Control) tool, and then select "Go To Source Code".
So basically, I am looking for a Function Module which does the same.
I came across Function Module CC_CALL_TRANSACTION_NEW_TASK, however, this will only create a new session.
I could specify the transaction as SE24, but it then opens a new session with this transaction. That is it.
My objective is to display the method of a class in a new session.
Is there any Function Module in this case?
Regards,
Mithun
Edited by: Mithun Kamath on Aug 9, 2011 5:35 PM

Hello Sandra,
Thank you very much. That was exactly what I was looking for.
However, instead of calling EDITOR_PROGRAM directly, what I instea did was the following:
1) Created a RFC enabled Function module.
2) Inside this function module, I wrote the following code:
SUBMIT tpda_editor_start AND RETURN
   WITH prgm = is_alert_det-program_name
   WITH incl = is_alert_det-include_name
   WITH dynp = space
   WITH line = is_alert_det-line_no.
The parameters above were similar to the one proposed by you.
Borrowed the above from the class CL_TPDA_SERVICES_TOOLS, method NAVIGATE_TO_SOURCE.
The above is basically called in the debugger, when we use the context menu in the editor tool and invoke the "Goto Source Code" functionality. This eventually calls the EDITOR_PROGRAM FM.
The reason why I did this is because when I was testing the FM, it did not allow me to specify the include as CL_TEST=====CM01. I do not know why, probably I was doing it wrong. But it gave me a message saying that the object does not exist in table TADIR.
Anyway, I did the above steps and it worked exactly as I wanted it to.
I would like to thank you again.
Best Regards,
Mithun
P.S. Forgot to add, I called the above RFC enabled FM as a new task.

"Open method of Workbooks class failed" when opening Excel file via Internet Explorer

(apologies, I posted this first to the general Office 2010 forum, but then realized this was probably a better spot to post)
We have an Excel COM add-in installed on users' PCs. This add-in responds to workbook open events by opening a particular XLA file (also deployed to the PC) to make certain features available. This process works flawlessly when Excel files are
opened locally - but when a user attempts to open an Excel file from an IE link, we get the following error: "Open method of Workbooks class failed". This is happening on the line that is trying to open the XLA file. This only happens
when launching an Excel link from IE - works fine in Chrome or Firefox.
I have found several posts on this topic, but no solutions:
1. This post (https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/office/en-US/73c96005-84af-4648-b103-32b677205be3/open-method-of-workbooks-class-failed)
is the closest to our problem. In this case, the "answer" was that the user may not have access to the 2nd workbook being opened. But in our case, we're opening an XLA that is on the local machine, and I've confirmed that it is not
corrupt and accessible (read & write, just in case!) to Everyone.
2. This (very old) post (http://www.pcreview.co.uk/forums/open-method-workbooks-fails-excel-hosted-ie-t965608.html)
seems similar, but is talking about opening Excel inside of IE. This is not what we're doing - the link is supposed to (and does) open Excel outside of IE. Interestingly, Excel.exe is being launched with the "-embedded" flag, even
though it isn't running in the IE window. When launching Excel by opening the file locally, Excel.exe is run with the "/dde" flag instead. Clearly the "-embedded" mode is what is causing the problem. I could change the
links on the web page to use some JavaScript to open Excel differently... unfortunately, the links are actually generated by SharePoint (the Excel files are in a SP repository), so this is not really an option.
3. This Microsoft KB article (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/268016) talks about problems opening an XLA directly from IE... but this is the case of a link pointing
directly to an XLA file, not opening a regular workbook that in turn opens an XLA, as is my case. In fact, this article specifically points out in the "More Information" section that "End users do not normally open XLAs; instead they open
an XLS that (if needed) loads one or more XLAs during startup." ==> precisely what I'm trying to do that is giving me the error!
I've replicated the situation with a very simple COM add-in (created in VS2010 using VB.Net) and a very simple XLA file (does nothing, just pops up a message in auto_open). For anyone wanting to try it out, here is the exact test case:
1. In Excel, create a simple XLA file containing only the following code, and save it in C:\TEMP\dummy.xla:
Sub Auto_Open()
MsgBox "Auto Open fired"
End Sub
2. In Visual Studio, create a new Excel 2010 Add-In. I created mine via Visual Basic, but I doubt the choice of language matters. Place the following code in ThisAddin.vb:
Public Class ThisAddIn
Private Sub ThisAddIn_Startup(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Startup
AddHandler Me.Application.WorkbookOpen, AddressOf Application_WorkbookOpen
End Sub
Private Sub ThisAddIn_Shutdown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Shutdown
End Sub
Sub Application_WorkbookOpen(ByVal workbook As Excel.Workbook)
On Error GoTo ErrHandler
If (Not workbook.Name.Contains("dummy.xla")) Then
MsgBox("Workbook open")
Application.Workbooks.Open("C:\temp\dummy.xla")
Application.Workbooks("dummy.xla").RunAutoMacros(Excel.XlRunAutoMacro.xlAutoOpen)
End If
Exit Sub
ErrHandler:
MsgBox(Err.Description)
End Sub
End Class
3. Build & publish this add-in and install it on the same machine as the XLA created in step 1.
4. Create and save an empty Excel workbook (I called mine WayneTest1.xlsx) - save it locally (on your desktop), and put a copy somewhere on your web server (I put mine directly in c:\inetpub).
5. Create an HTML file with a link to that workbook, saving it to the same web server location - here is mine:
<html>
<body>
<a href="WayneTest1.xlsx">Link to Excel file</a>
</body>
</html>
6. Double click the workbook on your desktop (from step 4) - opens fine, I get the "workbook open" message, following by the "Auto Open fired" message.
7. In Internet Explorer, navigate to the HTML file specified in step 5 and click on the link - when prompted, select "Open" - I get the "workbook open" message, following by the error message "Open method of Workbooks class failed".
Here are a few things I've ruled out / tried so far:
- Unchecked all the "Protected View" settings in Excel, made no difference
- Unchecked all the "File block settings" in Excel, made no difference
- Made sure dummy.xla was open for read & write to Everyone
- Made sure the web page was in Trusted sites and set the security level to Low for those sites in IE
- Tried making the local desktop file (step 6) readonly, made no difference (i.e. launching it locally still worked fine)
- Tried using Excel 2013 - made no difference
Any ideas / suggestions?

Hello Wayne,
Apologies for the delay.

How to call a static method in a class if I have just the object?

Hello. I have an abstract class A where I have a static method blah(). I have 2 classes that extend class A called B and C. In both classes I override method blah(). I have an array with objects of type B and C.
For every instance object of the array, I'm trying to call the static method in the corresponding class. For objects of type B I want to call blah() method in B class and for objects of type C I want to call blah() method in C class. I know it's possible to call a static method with the name of the object, too, but for some reason (?) it calls blah() method in class A if I try this.
So my question is: how do I code this? I guess I need to cast to the class name and then call the method with the class name, but I couldn't do it. I tried to use getClass() method to get the class name and it works, but I didn't know what to do from here...
So any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

As somebody already said, to get the behavior you
want, make the methods non-static.You all asked me why I need that method to be
static... I'm not surprised to hear this question
because I asked all my friends before posting here,
and all of them asked me this... It's because some
complicated reasons, I doubt it.
the application I'm writing is
quite big...Irrelevant.
Umm... So what you're saying is there is no way to do
this with that method being static? The behavior you describe cannot be obtained with only static methods in Java. You'd have to explicitly determine the class and then explicitly call the correct class' method.
