Endorsed

-Djava.endorsed.dirs=/export/home/system/endorsed
Why is useful this?
Could anyone explain what it means?

It's a hack - IIRC Sun needed somewhere to let users tuck their XML parser interfaces they wanted to use in lieu of the ones in 1.4, but the classloader wouldn't ever find your stuff since it defers to the system classloader - so Sun dreamed up this endorsed directory to be (sorta) "above" the system loaded class files (I doubt that made any sense). Bottom line, you put stuff in the endorsed directory, and your classloader will find that even if it redefines selected classes from the core API... Ah - I can't explain it well - check it at:

  • AADC Shown on .PQR report but Not within mailstream's endorsement line

    We are mailing 1st class letters, palletized mail that qualifies for Full Service discounts.  An interesting thing happened recently. on a job of 853 pieces, the PQR report listed 3 trays of 597 pieces that qualified for the auto 3-digit rate, 1 tray of 142 pcs that was listed under the AB column and 1 tray of 114 pieces at the single piece rate. 
    The 142 AB pieces are the ones in question.  This was listed as tray 4 with the following tray size and level "1-U  3DG".
    My question is if these pieces qualified for the AADC rate, why did the individual maiplieces contain the "AUTO 3-DIGIT" phrase in the endorsement line?   If they did NOT qualify for the AADC rate but qualified for the 3-Digit rate, why were they listed under the AB column?

  • Endorsing (Stamping) PDF Documents

    Can anyone assist with my question.
    Is there anyway to endorse a PDF document with a individual unique (colour) stamp. Stamp to include business name logo unique number and issue date.
    If so what product is best and how do you do it?
    Thanks again

    Hi Gabriel,
    Yes, this is possible using the Stamp tools in Acrobat Professional or Standard. Here is a Blog by Tim Huff that goes step by step how to create custom dynamic stamps in Acrobat-
    http://acrobat.timhuff.net/?p=24
    The unique number will require some extra work but this should get you started.

    java.endorsed dirs was trivial to find.
    [Google: java.endorsed.dirs|http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=java.endorsed.dirs]
    file.path appears to be non-standard, at least in 1.4.

  • Java "Endorsed" Mechanism not working?

    Hello,
    I came across a very strange issue earlier this week. I was getting a "NoSuchMethodError" from somewhere in my code. Googling the problem revealed that I was supposed to "endorse" some certain jar files (jaxb-api.jar and jaxws-api.jar). Here is where my problem started.
    I added the following option to java when running my code (my jar file(s) ):
    -Djava.endorsed.dirs="/path/endorsed"
    (For the record: YES, the jar files are in that directory. I've tried all sorts of different configurations in terms of this endorsed dirs option, the classpath, and copying/moving files around. I have thus far been unable to get it to work.)
    My code is run from C++ which looks at a conf file to see what options to pass java. This is a potential weakness (an extra "moving part"), but I'm pretty sure these options are concatenated correctly because when I put in the "-agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=y,address=1044" option, it correctly suspends execution until I attach a debugger. Clearly this is a pretty lazy test, but like I said it's passing the option. Unless java is peculiar about the order of these commandline options, I don't see a problem here.
    So, by this point I was pulling my hair out trying to figure this out. I am extremely averse to shoving these jars into the jre/lib/endorsed directory, but I finally tried that (I actually didn't think there was any difference, but it was a last-ditch effort). To my surprise, my code ran fine without the "NoSuchMethodError." So, for now we have this jar file in the "official" jre endorsed directory, but ideally I would be able to figure out this java.endorsed.dirs option so we didn't have to do that (it just seems so dirty - and global, which I especially don't like).
    Getting the full java command is a little trick, but I can provide that if necessary. From what I can see in the code it's being constructed as:
    java <JAVA_OPTIONS> -jar "<MY_JAR>" "<MY_MAIN_ARGS>"
    where:
    <JAVA_OPTIONS> comes from this conf file (which I was setting as '-Djava.endorsed.dirs="/path/endorsed" ')
    <MY_JAR> is the full path to my "main" jar file which obviously references a bunch of other jars, including these jaxws-api and jaxb-api jars.
    <MY_MAIN_ARGS> is the list of arguments passed into the main function which tells "<MY_JAR>" what to do.
    P.S.> I also noticed that if I shove these files into the jre/lib/endorsed directory and I still specify the -Djava.endorsed.dirs option, it acts as though the files are not endorsed ("NoSuchMethodError"). As soon as I take the option out, it starts working (no error). I don't know if this is relevant information besides the fact that it seems the -Djava.endorsed.dirs option is actually being passed, even though it's not doing what I expect (as in, it's affecting the execution in some way so it must be making a difference in the call somehow).
    So, what gives? Why does -Djava.endorsed.dirs not work?

    Hi Gayatri,
    There are a lot of reasons as to why the java stack could be down. Try bouncing the J2EE stack again. ( restart), and see if it works
    All the best!

  • Endorsed directory

    Hello,
    I recently downloaded the Java Web Services Developer Pack and I'm trying to use the XML parsers (SAX and DOM) with jdk 1.4.2. I've copied the contents of the "jaxp-1.2.2/jaxp/endorsed" directory from the web services install directory to the "<JAVA_HOME>/jre/lib/endorsed" directory.
    I'm trying to compile a simple DOM example and get the error:
    package org.w3c does not exist
    Do I need to include the jar files in "<JAVA_HOME>/jre/lib/endorsed" in my CLASSPATH?
    thanks!

    Do I need to include the jar files in "<JAVA_HOME>/jre/lib/endorsed"
    in my CLASSPATH?Yes. Since the DOM classes are not in the java.lang package, they need to be in the classpath when you compile and run your app. Of course, for compiling, it doesn't matter whether your classpath points to the jars in jaxp-1.2.2/jaxp/endorsed or <JAVA_HOME>/jre/lib/endorsed.
    Cheers,
    Mike

    Hi, My OS X is Leopard v10.5.8, w/Safari v5.0.6. I am considering downloading ClickToFlash 2.9.2 for general security reasons. I’m assuming this a good fit, being that Apple endorses this extension on their site. Does this mean i can download it w/out having to worry about any conflicts?,.. that its coming from a safe source, etc? Does it have any downsides? Is it easy to install?, ..or uninstall if i dont like it?
       ALSO~ I’m assuming i dont need ClickToPlugin, because when on internet i always have “Enable Plugins” ~ DISABLED.
        Thanks for any advice,...  Jean in NJ

    I dont really understand~  When i open my Flash Player pane, click on Advanced tab, the heading "Updates" reads~ "Not updating may leave this computer vulnerable to security threats." The reason for my concern is that Adobe no longer offers FP updates for my OS [10.5.8],not even archived. So my original question probably should have read~ When visiting a web site does Flash automatically load onto safari.  If so, can using Click to Flash;... and NOT clicking to flash, prevent Flash from loading, and possibly carrying  a "security threat" [virus?], into Safari or my Mac?  Not trying to beat a dead horse,..just trying to understand what makes him run,   Thanks

  • An interesting pro photographer endorsement

    Apple's startpage regularly profiles professionals using Apple/Mac technology to run their business. Today's pro profile was a digital photogapher (Kevin Foley) who works with celebrities, and does a serious daily volume of shooting (23GB/day). Here's the link:
    http://www.apple.com/pro/photo/foley/
    Interestingly enough, there is not one mention of Aperture in the article, and in fact, he endorses iView. A quote from the article:
    “I use iView Media Pro for archive management, because it lets me search stuff that’s stored on DVDs,” he says. “I just run all my DVDs through the program and it creates a preview image. When I do a search, iView Media Pro is similar to Spotlight in that it will search all of the DVDs. The nice thing is that it keeps all the meta data so you can search for things similar to the way Spotlight searches for an image — by client or factor such as ‘swimsuit shots in ’97.’"
    I thought this was truly ironic timing and an interesting endorsement of a competitive product to highlight in the wake of the Aperture release. Its probably just coincidence, but for those users out there who have been discussing issues with archiving and management in Aperture, read the article. I think it gives a decent recommendation for iView.
    Brad

    Interestingly enough, there is not one mention of
    Aperture in the article, and in fact, he endorses
    iView.
    Actually, that article sort of makes sense.
    " 'I use iView Media Pro for archive management, because it lets me search stuff that’s stored on DVDs,' he says."
    Aperture can't do that. Aperture only works with online volumes. If that's his need, he needs to use what he's using.
    There are acres and acres of functionality that are not in common between Aperture and iView Media Pro. This is not to bash Aperture, but to point out that they are in many ways complementary. Just as Aperture does some things that iView Media Pro can't do or can't do as well, it's the same going the other way. It's perfectly reasonable to use Aperture as the working browser and iView as the archival retriever.
    Of course, the probable reason Aperture isn't mentioned is because he wasn't a beta tester and hasn't had time to work the final 1.0 version into his workflow.

  • IMB Mailpiece and Tray serial numbers on endorsement line?

    Hello,
    To make work less painful for our Operations when switching to USPS Full Service Option, we are considering making the IMB mailpiece and Tray serial numbers visible to the line operator in human readable format.  We hope to achieve this by putting these numbers (output from Presort) in the first few characters of the Optional Endorsement Line (OEL).
    -  Is this a good approach?  If so, would it be possible to configure Presort to pre-fix the stated serial numbers into the OEL?  We hope to avoid any custom code development for this.
    -  If it is not a good approach, what alternatives should we consider?  (I read about an optional 'Mailer's Keyline' on the USPS web-site.  (http://pe.usps.com/cpim/ftp/manuals/qsg300/q708.pdf)  Can this be used?  If so, is some Presort configuration possible to generate the desired human-readable serial numbers in one of the Presort outputs?
    Your thoughts and suggestions would be most appreciated.
    Vishak

    Vishak,
    I have been told by our postal reps that we cannot place additional information in the optional endorsement line.  The only thing we have used on the same line as the OEL is the ACS participation code - I have provided an example below.  Not all jobs will have ACS information though.  However, I have encountered conflicting information from different postal sources in the past.
    #BYNXXX  *******AUTO* 5-DIGIT 78612
    I agree with Kendra.  I believe your best bet is to use the container, package and pallet codes.  We use them on every mailing.  These codes will allow your line workers to sort the mail pieces at the end of the line with ease and efficiency.  I have listed an example of what and where they look like.  "C" for container or tray, "P" for package and "S" for skid or pallet.

  • Jwsdp 1.1 and endorsed mechanism

    Am using j2sdk 1.4.1_01. As the jwsdp tutorial suggested, in order to use the new jaxp classes, I placed the jars in a new \\jre\lib\endorsed directory in the j2sdk and also set the endorsed directories system variable to point to them. When running the xml example from the jwsdp-1.1\docs\tutorial\doc\JAXPSAX6.html file, I'm still getting the crimson parser and not the xerces parser that the tutorial says should be operating. Can anyone tell me why? Or what I must do to get the right parser? I tried running the command on the command line (Windows 2000) and in an UltraEdit DOS command but I get the same results with both - no Xerces parser.
    Thanks.
    Madeleine

    Just to say this works if you put the jars in the classpath. Is this the only way?

  • Endorsed Standards Overriding Mechanism

    Hi all,
    is the 'Endorsed Standards Overriding Mechanism' supported in JNLP files? I couldn't get any information from the JNLP Specs or in this forum.
    There must be a way to do this; since I expect others having problems with the standard xml parser / xslt processor bundled with the JRE, too.
    I just want to use a specific version of eg. Xalan and Xerces in my webstart application. And normally you use the 'Endorsed Standards Overriding Mechanism' to accomplish this. However, with Webstart I couldn't get it to work.
    Daniel

    I don't think you can do this through the JNLP in a reasonable way. We had the same problem and we ended up using creating the Xerces parser in a somewhat hard-coded manner. See http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=38&thread=231995

  • Government endorsed security traffic over VSANs?

    Greetings,
    Does anyone know if any governments endorse different levels of "security" when using Cisco VSANs? I am talking about simple levels of security such as unclassified and perhaps some form of restricted/commercial in confidential material. Nothing like secret or above. I asked this type of question in 2005 so perhaps something has changed since then.
    Cheers
    Stephen

    While ATT was the one who made the news this time, it has been long reported that most of the major providers (google, Facebook, AOL, etc.)  have been monitoring data trafic on their networks, and providing back door access to government agencies for years. (If one recalls, kinda the point Edward Snoden made with his secret government messages release.) At least, they seem to be backing off, as the public becomes more aware or their privacy invasions.

  • Alternative to endorsing jar files?

    Hi
    I want to use the xerces api jar file rather than the sun xml api files. It seems I have to endorse the jar files by putting it in the lib\endorsed directory. But that is going to globally have an affect. I just want only my portal application to get this jar overriden. Anything I can do with the classloading to get this working? Please help. Thanks a lot!

    My point wasn't that I wanted to troubleshoot what I had (though I appreciate the offer). I've actually sorted through a few of the issues already. My overall question is if there is a better alternative. The labview implementation doesn't handle errors well at all. For example, it failed to detect that it couldn't find that value in the file (which was written there by the write function, not by hand so I'm reasonably sure it is properly formatted). I'm more interested to see if this is the major option for config values or if people use an alternative (i.e. xml).
