Float Exception

Hi,
I am developing a game in Java. If I use float variables in my program, it gives float exception while building the application in Ktoolbar in J2ME. Can I use float variables in java program while developing games. If not what is the solution for that?
Need Help Immediately
thanks in advance,
sampath

Just from quickly glancing at the Mobile Information Device Profile (v2.0) API documentation, there doesn't seem to be any support for floating-point numbers. Just byte, char, short, int, and long. If you want to look for yourself, just go to the MIDP v2.0 API docs and look at all of the classes listed under the java.lang package and you won't see either of the Float or Double classes that come with other versions of Java like the Standard Edition.
Looks like you'll just have to stick to integers and longs.

Conversion Vector of Floats to float[]: exception?

Java Developers,
I am able to convert my String vector to a
String[] but just can't get the Vector with Floats to be converted to a float[] array. I have looked into google and java.sun.com Forums but still cant seem to find the answer. I would really appreciate your help!
This is how I am making the conversion from Vector(String) to String[]:
legendLabelsArray = new String[columnHeads.size()];
int k=0;
Iterator e = columnHeads.iterator();
while(e.hasNext()){
System.out.println("inside the enumerator");
legendLabelsArray[k] = e.next().toString();
System.out.println("Array elements at " + k + " are " + legendLabelsArray[k]);
System.out.println(k++);
How can I make something similar to work with a Vector with Floats to float[] instead of Strings?
Thanks,
Musaddiq
[email protected]

Assuming Vector v with Float elements:
float[] a = new float[v.size()];
int n = 0;
for (Iterator i = v.iterator(); i.hasNext(); )
a[n++] = ((Float) i.next()).floatValue();

ICal Invites to Outlook Users 5 Hours Off

Hi,
Have found a few posts on this, with even fewer answers. When I send iCal event invites to attendees who are on Win XP Outlook v 2003 sp2, the event is off by 5 hours. My 9 am appointments show up as 4 in the morning.
Have tried resetting all time zone settings. Got some satisfaction setting time zone to floating (except now the invite is from 9 am - 9am). Have all Apple OS patches applied.
Will trashing prefs fix this?? AND If I trash my iCal prefs will I loose all my appointments???
I know this is likely a fight between Apple and slacker programmers at MS, but for the sake of the users, can't someone just make a fix??
Oh yea, suggestions to fix are greatly appreciated.
thanx,
jeff

Jeff,
Oddly enough, I de-selected the option in the iCal preferences to Turn on Time Zone Support, and I was able to view events obtained from Outlook users in the correct timeframe. Not sure why this was the case, but any event sent to me as a calendar event from Outlook would always show up as GMT time zone, which is not where I'm located.
This doesn't completely answer your question, as you were sending events out to Outlook users, but it might be worth trying?

Graphics Display in Report

Hi,
I put a graphics display in a report. I always got 'Floating exception r25desm (core dumped)'. I am using Reports 2.5 and Graphics 2.5 on Unix. What is the problem?

What error did you get? Please give the original error code and message to help us diagnose the problem.
In order to run OGD, you definitely need Oracle Graphics installed on the same oracle home as reports.

How to convert flat to deep structure ?

hi all, i hava a problem. this is my code:
TYPES: BEGIN OF mytype,
f1(14) TYPE C,
f2(24) TYPE C,
f3(9) TYPE C,
f4(6) TYPE C,
f5(4) TYPE N,
f6(5) TYPE N,
Myfield (8) TYPE F,
END OF mytype.
DATA: mylocaltable TYPE TABLE OF mytype WITH HEADER LINE.
read data from CSV file and put it to mylocaltable, it works fine ))), but next:
DATA: OUTPUT TYPE TABLE OF DEEP_STRUCTURE_TYPE WITH HEADER LINE.
DATA: deepstructure LIKE LINE OF OUTPUT-message_type-line.
LOOP AT mylocaltable.
MOVE-CORRESPONDING mylocaltable to deepstructure.
APPEND deepstructure TO OUTPUT-message_type-line.
ENDLOOP.
TRY.
CREATE OBJECT PROXY.
CALL METHOD PROXY->Message_Out
EXPORTING
OUTPUT = OUTPUT.
COMMIT WORK.
ENDTRY.
there is a error message on line "Myfield (8) TYPE F,":
"Myfield" must be a character like data object (data type C, N, D, T or STRING) .
in the DEEP structure OUTPUT the field "Myfield" has XSD:DOUBLE type (in XI).
Please help me to solve this problem. Thanks.
P.S. the data for "Myfield" can be like "12345678,12345678" - i mean it's float and has max length - 16.

Hi, thanks for reply, but i've solved this problem by other way:
1.
i've changed
Myfield (8) TYPE F, to Myfield (16) TYPE С,
2.
then i've changed
LOOP AT mylocaltable.
MOVE-CORRESPONDING mylocaltable to deepstructure.
APPEND deepstructure TO OUTPUT-message_type-line.
ENDLOOP.
to
DATA: Float type F.
LOOP AT mylocaltable.
deepstructure-f1 = mylocaltable-f1.
deepstructure-f2 = mylocaltable-f2.
deepstructure-f3 = mylocaltable-f3.
deepstructure-f4 = mylocaltable-f4.
deepstructure-f5 = mylocaltable-f5.
deepstructure-f6 = mylocaltable-f6.

Problem with automount

You probably already realized this, but the /etc/auto_master has an invalid entry:
/home siroe:/ldap/& -nobrowse
That line should be in your /etc/auto_home file and the following should be in /etc/auto_master:
/home /etc/auto_home
Also, check that siroe:/ldap is a valid directory and shared out in /etc/dfs/dfstab. See the manpages for dfstab and share.

Float overlow Exception!

Hi all,
To quote JLS in verbatim ..."Java floating-point
operators produce no exceptions (�11). An operation
that overflows produces a signed infinity, an
operation that underflows produces a signed zero, and
an operation that has no mathematically definite
result produces NaN."
But I am facing a problem here. The highest value
that can be held by a Double variable is
1.79769313486231570e+308. Any operation resulting in
an overflow of this variable should produce 'infinity'
accodring to the JLS but I am getting a
"EXCEPTION_FLT_OVERFLOW". Does this have something to
do with the OS or the processor?
Here's a simple test program:
public class FloatingPointInexactRulesTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// An example of overflow:
double d = 1.79769313486231570e+308;
System.out.print("overflow produces infinity: ");
System.out.println(d + "*1.1==" + d*1.1);
The program's output should have been:
overflow produces infinity: 1.0e+308*1.1==Infinity
but I get a EXCEPTION_FLT_OVERFLOW! Since the JVM cant
violate the semantics of the JLS I think the problem
lies somewhere else(either the OS or the processor). I
am using WIndows2000 as the OS and Intel PIV as the
processor.
Please help me...

Thanks a lot.

Yeah switching to Linux is a good idea. The firsttime I tried that,
GRUB crashed and I screwed everything else tryingto copy the
bootloader. Before this I had problems accessingthe file system on
Windows via LAN, Samba server is not really theeasiest to use.
Before that I had display problems with wierdmessages like sync out
of range, Init respawning too fast so disabling.......I guess this is just
the tip of an iceberg when it comes to problemswith Linux. It is
sometimes really frustrating.Really? The only problems I recognise are the
automatic chip set
detection for the graphics card. I always let it boot
in 'mode 3', figure
out the exact chip set present in the computer and
only then switch
to 'mode 5' ...Yeah I had all these problems with RH Linux within a span of 2 months.
I solved most of them though(Google is my best friend ;). The problem with the display was coz of horizontal and vertical sync values.
btw, Samba has a nice webbrowser interface; I simply
follow the docs
step by step (I know next to nothing about Samba) and
I'm in business
after typing in all the required stuff ...I had problems with Samba bcoz of the firewall settings and the firewall interface was not comin on properly on the display.
And now there are viruses for Linux too!Never do anything online when logged in as root and
keep your FS
permissions sensible.Yeah. I dont log in to root untill it is really really needed.
An offtopic question (hope no one minds) Is there any book for Linux which is on the same lines of "The Design of the Unix Operating System" by Maurice.J.Bach?. If yes, then pls pls lemme know. I am a big Fan of "The Design of the Unix Operating System".
kind regards,
JosThanks and regards.

Help! Exception when trying to use Float

Hi. I'm about to lose my mind trying to fix this exception:
SubsampleAverage - Parameter value's class (java.lang.Float) is not an instance of the parameter class (java.lang.Double) for parameter "scaleX".It's being thrown by this code,
public BufferedImage resizeImage(InputStream inputStream)
    BufferedImage resizedImage = null;
    try {
      SeekableStream stream = SeekableStream.wrapInputStream(inputStream, true);
      RenderedOp newImage = JAI.create("stream",stream);
      ((OpImage)newImage.getRendering()).setTileCache(null);
      float scale = targetWidth / newImage.getWidth();
      ParameterBlock pb = new ParameterBlock();
      pb.addSource(newImage);
      pb.add(scale);
      pb.add(scale);
      RenderingHints qualityHints =
        new RenderingHints(RenderingHints.KEY_RENDERING, RenderingHints.VALUE_RENDER_QUALITY);
      resizedImage = (JAI.create("SubsampleAverage",pb,qualityHints)).getAsBufferedImage();
    catch (Exception e)
      this.error = e.getMessage();
    return resizedImage;
}

I suspect scale should be a double then.

JAVA Float to int exception

Hi
I am facing a serious problem after migrating application from oracle 9i to oracle 10g.
Application was earlier connected with oracle 9i as database after migration to 10g .
I am facing a problem of float to int exception.
In database,in table where a column's datatype is defined as number() is treated in java as float but
*number(p)[p any integer]* is treated as integer in java.
Earlier when application was on Oracle 9i i never faced this problem but in oracle 10g it is present.
Can some one help me in this issue.
What should i do so that data type number() is also treated as integer in java

You could change your code, or change at table level.
This is not a trivial task, though:
SQL> create table t(x number)
Table created.
SQL> insert into t values (1)
1 row created.
SQL> commit
Commit complete.
SQL> alter table t modify x number(10)
alter table t modify x number(10)
Error at line 8
ORA-01440: column to be modified must be empty to decrease precision or scaleYou need something like:
SQL> alter table t add y number (10)
Table altered.
SQL> update t set y = x, x=null
1 row updated.
SQL> commit
Commit complete.
SQL> alter table t drop column x
Table altered.
SQL> alter table t rename column y to x
Table altered.
SQL> select * from t
X
1
1 row selected.Regards

Null pointer Exception with Float.parseFloat

I need to assign a float value from a database to a variable recurrently throughout a while loop. but i am getting a null pointer exception error:
while ( rs.next() )
     out.println("<TR>");
          float corr = Float.parseFloat((String) request.getParameter("echo"));
          out.println("<center><TD><b><font color = #990000>" + rs.getString("race_number") + "</b></TD>");
          out.println("<center><TD><b><font color = #990000>" + rs.getString("sail_number") + "</b></TD>");
          out.println("<center><TD><b><font color = #990000>" + rs.getString("finish_time_elapsed") + "</b></TD>");
          out.println("<center><TD><b><font color = #990000>" + rs.getString("echo") + "</b></TD>");
          out.println("</TR>");
I've also tried:
float corr = Float.parseFloat( String request.getParameter("echo"));
float corr = 0;
corr Float.parseFloat((String) request.getParameter("echo"));
corr = echo;
corr = request.getParameter("echo");
corr = rs.getString("echo");
corr = Float.parseFloat(request.getParameter("echo"));
temp = rs.getFloat("Problem_Description");
Any ideas Please!!!

Null pointer exception means that the value you are trying to turn into a Float is null. Probably request.getParameter("echo") returns null.
Is "echo" a request parameter, or a field you want to get from the database?
request.getParameter() has nothing to do with a database query.
That is your http request coming from the form submission. It won't change.
If "echo" is meant to be a request parameter, then make sure the parameter is actually present.
If its a database field (stored as a number) then
float corr = rs.getFloat("echo");
should do the trick.
Can the value be null in the database?
Cheers,

PMON: terminating instance due to error 822
Instance terminated by PMON, pid = 4037==============================================> Any idea on what needs to be done to fix this error.
I remember that i had the very same issue with the
Oracle 9i R2 Developers release.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.You mentioned the 9ir2 release. Do you still have any reference to the 9ir2 software in your environment ? With a little luck you have, and in that case it not so hard to find a solution ...

Floating point exception under Open Suse while normal run under SunSolaris

Dear All,
I have a strage problem and I cannot get a solution. I have a fortran code that uses the blas lapack libraries. I have compiled the code under Solaris OS using sunstudio12 running on a multicpu ultrasparc III machine. Then I have run the program and I have obtained the results. The same code, the I have compiled under an intel pentium x86 machine running opensuse and sunstudio12 for linux for the x86 platform. On the linux I have used the -xarch=sse2. After compiling I have tried to run it and the program start running but after some time it stops saying Floating point exception. Then I have compiled with the -g and -C option and then run it with dbx having the catch fpe activated. When stopping I got the following message:
FVr_bestmem( 31) = 2.59647E+01

I thinking that maybe it is a problem of the CPU type I do not know.
Could you please give me a hint about what is the problem and how to solve it ?
Any hint is very much appreciated.
Thank you very much
With kind regards

Dear Paul,
The story is a bit longer.
First I have compiled and run the program under windows 2000 using the digital fortran on an intel machine. This was the platform that I work when developing. When compiling using the debug mode there was no problem the program run but slowly. Then when compiling using the optimization options the program crashed giving a fortran run time error. So far I Have always linked agains the LAPACK BLAS comipled altogether with the code.
The I have tried to the same under mandriva 2008 having the sunstudio12 compiler on the same intel PC.
I did compiled again everything using the LAPACK AND BLAS fortran files. When running the dbx with the catch FPE the program crashed and the error was in the ilaenv calling the ieeeck routine.
Then I tried the same linking against the sunperf library and I got the output shown in the first post.
Secondly I have installed opensuse on the macbook and tried the same with both ways either linking against the sun library or building everything using the LAPACK-blas source. The the same error was produced as presented in the first post.
Thirdly I moved all the code on a sun microsystem machien with sun ultrasparc III cpus. Then compiled and linked against the sun perf library and the program is running.
Maybe this will shed more light

SolMan 3.1 sapinst throwing floating point exception

I am new to SAP CRM. I am trying to install SolMan 3.1
on Linux/Oracle. I have checked the kernel build of Redhat EL 3.0 and the glibc and seems to be fine on the machine. I also have EP installed on the same box so
the os dependencies should be good to go. While running INSTALL program for SolMan 3.1 installation I get Floating point Exception. Is there anything I am missing ? Is there any SolMan specific kernel to be
patched?
thanks

Export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL
Let me know if the problem is solved.

the sapinst don't can start setup and present the error "floating point exceprion"
please help me!
thanks

Dear dongyang xu,
what is your patchlevel of rhel3? Please make sure, that you run the latest Quarterly Update of RHEL3 which is QU9 if I remember correctly.
Please make also sure, that you are using the latest available sapinst for R/3 4.7 Enterprise.You can download it from <a href="http://service.sap.com/patches">http://service.sap.com/patches</a>.
Additionally, what version of java have you installed? What's the output of:
'java -version' and
'echo $JAVA_HOME'
Thanks
