An Odd Interaction Between Ant, JUnit, and IntelliJ

I must be losing my mind. Things that I used to know in my sleep are failing me these days.
I'm running JUnit 3.8.1 and Ant 1.6 in IntelliJ 4.5 on Windoze XP and Sun's JDK 1.4.2. (Enough acronyms?)
I've got an Ant build.xml that I've flogged on a bunch of projects at my last employer. It's nice and generic and shaken down nicely. It has a compile step that's followed by a dependent <junit> task, which runs all the JUnit TestCases I've accumulated, generates XML reports, deploys the app, and then generates javadocs. I've used it many times on the command line and in Eclipse 3.0.
My latest employer has sprung for IntelliJ 4.5, which I like VERY much. After learning Eclipse it's been no problem to figure out what IntelliJ is doing for me.
My problems start when I try to use my lovely build.xml in IntelliJ. It compiles all my code fine, but when it tries to run the JUnit task it always comes back with ClassNotFoundException when it tries to load the TestCase. That means CLASSPATH, right? I'm setting CLASSPATH in the build.xml. I can look at the properties that JUnit says it has when it runs the test, and I can see the full path to the TestCase in the java.class.path property. I've used the <echo> task to print out the converted CLASSPATH before running JUnit, and I can see the TestCase in the CLASSPATH then, too.
If I open a command shell and run the junit.textui.TestRunner by hand, adding the appropriate JARs using the -classpath option, everything is perfect.
What the heck am I doing wrong? Anybody else running JUnit in IntelliJ via Ant?

Conversion between local time and UTC: Anomaly at Daylight saving time edge

Hi all,
I want to convert back and forth between local time including all peculiarities like DST etc. This is the core of my code:
    Date d=new Date(toEpoch());
    Calendar cal=Calendar.getInstance(tz);
    cal.setTime(d);
    int offs=(cal.get( Calendar.ZONE_OFFSET )+cal.get( Calendar.DST_OFFSET ));
    System.out.println("zone_offset: "+cal.get( Calendar.ZONE_OFFSET )+", dst_offset: "+cal.get( Calendar.DST_OFFSET )+", offset: "+offs);
    Calendar cal2=Calendar.getInstance(TimeZone.getTimeZone("Etc/UTC"));
    System.out.println(cal2.getTimeZone().getID());
    cal2.setTime(d);
    cal2.add(Calendar.MILLISECOND,-offs);
    d=cal2.getTime();Looks (and, actually, is) rather complicated. I take two different calendar objects to be absolutely sure that no accidental DST conversion hits me on the UTC side.
The general case works as expected:
Date (fourteen digits, 'x'=Exit): 20050909190000
Entered date: Fr, 9.9.2005, 19:00
zone_offset: 3600000, dst_offset: 3600000, offset: 7200000
Etc/UTC
Date in UTC: Fr, 9.9.2005, 17:00I live in timezone Europe/Berlin, so during DST we have GMT+2. Let's see what's happening on christmas (non-DST):
Date (fourteen digits, 'x'=Exit): 20051224180000
Entered date: Sa, 24.12.2005, 18:00
zone_offset: 3600000, dst_offset: 0, offset: 3600000
Etc/UTC
Date in UTC: Sa, 24.12.2005, 17:00As expected!
Now, we enter the dark zone of DST: Each year DST is turned on and off and it seems as if this leads to problems in both cases. Let's start with the next event of this case: At Oct., 30th, 2005, DST is turned off between 2:00 and 3:00 at night. So, we have once 2:30 with DST and (one hour later) 2:30 again without DST. Java, however, garbles things completely (I'm leaving the unneeded lines of my debug output out now):
Entered date: So, 30.10.2005, 01:59
zone_offset: 3600000, dst_offset: 3600000, offset: 7200000
Date in UTC: Sa, 29.10.2005, 23:59
Entered date: So, 30.10.2005, 02:00
zone_offset: 3600000, dst_offset: 0, offset: 3600000
Date in UTC: So, 30.10.2005, 02:00
Entered date: So, 30.10.2005, 02:30
zone_offset: 3600000, dst_offset: 0, offset: 3600000
Date in UTC: So, 30.10.2005, 02:30
Entered date: So, 30.10.2005, 02:59
zone_offset: 3600000, dst_offset: 0, offset: 3600000
Date in UTC: So, 30.10.2005, 02:59
Entered date: So, 30.10.2005, 03:00
zone_offset: 3600000, dst_offset: 0, offset: 3600000
Date in UTC: So, 30.10.2005, 02:00So, directly before the DST change, offset is computed correctly. From 3:00 onward, also. But in between, Calendar does neither take an offset of two hours (what would be somehow correct) nor one hour (also somehow correct). Even though it predicts to take the one-hour zone offset into consideration, "GMT" time is actually the same as local time.
Things become even wireder at the other edge of the DST time range: This year, DST began on March, 27th, 2005: Let's see what is happening:
Entered date: So, 27.3.2005, 01:59
zone_offset: 3600000, dst_offset: 0, offset: 3600000
Date in UTC: So, 27.3.2005, 00:59
Entered date: So, 27.3.2005, 02:00
zone_offset: 3600000, dst_offset: 3600000, offset: 7200000
Date in UTC: So, 27.3.2005, 00:00
Entered date: So, 27.3.2005, 02:30
zone_offset: 3600000, dst_offset: 3600000, offset: 7200000
Date in UTC: So, 27.3.2005, 00:30
Entered date: So, 27.3.2005, 02:59
zone_offset: 3600000, dst_offset: 3600000, offset: 7200000
Date in UTC: So, 27.3.2005, 00:59
Entered date: So, 27.3.2005, 03:00
zone_offset: 3600000, dst_offset: 3600000, offset: 7200000
Date in UTC: So, 27.3.2005, 00:00
Entered date: So, 27.3.2005, 04:59
zone_offset: 3600000, dst_offset: 3600000, offset: 7200000
Date in UTC: So, 27.3.2005, 01:59
Entered date: So, 27.3.2005, 05:00
zone_offset: 3600000, dst_offset: 3600000, offset: 7200000
Date in UTC: So, 27.3.2005, 03:00While at 1:59, everything is ok, 2:00 is handled as within DST. That's ok, as the hour between 2:00 and 3:00 did not exist in that night in our local time zone, but at 3:00 the system totally screws up things as it suddenly subtracts three hours (while pretending to use two hours). This goes on until 5:00 in the morning when time is shown correctly again.
Can anyone help me? What am I doing wrong? How do I actually convert correctly between a DST-aware local time zone and GMT/UTC?
Best regards,
Dirk

Well, I would not say I did "just about everything" wrong. Actually, Calendar is not GMT-only as it has time zone information and converts its internal time according to that information if I use the getTime() function (what I do).
In my applications, I handle dates in my own data structures. My EDate object (which is part of the QJCC library hosted on SourceForge) stores years, months, days, minutes, hours, and seconds seperately. Using this class, I managed to get an actually working time zone conversion this way:
public void toUTC(TimeZone tz) {
    Calendar cal=Calendar.getInstance(tz);
    cal.clear();
    cal.set(year,month-1,day,hour,minute,second);
    int offs=(cal.get( Calendar.ZONE_OFFSET )+cal.get( Calendar.DST_OFFSET ));
    //System.out.println("zone offset: "+cal.get( Calendar.ZONE_OFFSET )+", DST offset: "+cal.get( Calendar.DST_OFFSET ));
    second-=(offs/1000);
    normalize();
normalize() does something similar to the lenient stuff in Calendar.
I will now write the method for the other direction. The most interesting item will be the answer to the question:
"Tell me the correct DST_OFFSET in TimeZone X when I have the actual point of time given in UTC."
Perhaps someone can give me a hint?!?

I'm using apple's bluetooth keyboard and I need an easy way to switch between the text and numbers fields instead of tapping on the screen

I'm using apple's bluetooth keyboard and I need an easy way to switch between the text and numbers fields instead of tapping on the screen

While not in edit mode:
- if start typing numbers, then it enters number mode.
- if start typing text, then it enters text mode.
Using the arrow keys exits edit mode. So this should work for you:
1 Type text into a cell, which enters text mode.
2 Press Return to move to the next cell.
3 Press right arrow key to exit edit mode.
4 Press left arrow key to get back to the cell.
5 Type a number, which enters number mode.
Another method that requires more planning ahead of time is to format the cells as text or number before starting the data entry. Then when you navigate to a cell while in edit mode, you will be in the appropriate mode (without having to exit edit mode).
This all works fine for me. Hopefullly it does for you also.

The difference of the IEEE802.1x Auth between Cisco Routers and Catalyst switches

Hello
I am investigating the difference of the IEEE802.1x Auth between Routers and Switches.
Basically dot1x auth is availlable on Catalyst Switches. however if I want to check to
PortBased Multi-Auth , MAC address Auth and any certification Auth with this feature,
Is it possible to integrate into Cisco Router such as Cisco 891F ?
In my opinion Cisco891F is also available to use basic IEEE802.1x but if it compares with Catalyst switches such as Cat3560X
I think there might be any unsupported feature on Cisco 891F.
I appreciate any information. thank you very much in advance.

Many time in interviews asked comaprison between cisco routers and switches that i was answerless bcoz i dont have much knowledge about that.Can anyone provide me the compariosin sheet of the same.how are the cisco devices differ with each other how much Bandwidth each routres support and Etc...
Ummmm ... The most common question I get is "what is the difference between a router and a switch".
However, if you get a question like this, then my impression to this line of questioning are:
1. The candidate they are looking for has in-depth knowledge of routers and switches. And I mean IN-DEPTH!;
2. They are not looking for a candidate. They just want to stroke their ego. There is not alot of people who can give you the "names and numbers" of routers and switches at a snap of a finger. And if you do happen to know the answer, then and there, then expect a tougher follow-up question.

Switching between page layout and word processing

I can't seem to switch between page layout and word processing view. I've read all the posts on this and still can't figure out why I can't just type a document into Pages. The only option I have in page layout view is to type into text boxes, which is not what I want. I just want to type a letter for crying out loud.
Before I get all the rants about reading User Guides, etc. *I have*. I've also searched on here and in-app help and just don't understand the fuzzy/non-existant answers. Obviously, I'm a newbie, so please don't jump all over me for this. If it was Word - I could do this in NO time. I just find it incredibly frustrating that inputting a normal document should be so difficult.
Is "Pages" *not* a word processing program? Is it just a cut and paste application? Sorry for the tone - I mean no disrespect - it's just that I've been fooling around with this for DAYS and I just don't have time to spare anymore. I really need to get this done.
Can somebody give me a straightforward answer on how to just type a normal document into pages without using text boxes?
Thanks and I apologize for not being mac-savvy. It took some of us a lot longer to see the light =)

Here is a script doing the conversion task for you.
Open a Page Layout document
run this script:
--{code}
set p2t to (path to temporary items from user domain) as text
set path_2_doc to p2t & (do shell script "date +_%Y%m%d_%H%M%S.doc")
tell application "Pages"
save document 1 in path_2_doc
open file path_2_doc
end tell
--{code}
that's all folks.

Internationalization issue : convert date/time to GMT/UTC

We have our webservices running in websphere /oracle.There is this requirement to internationalize the application ...like
a) language .....
d)Internatiolization of time :
For this requirment I am planning to do the following.Service request with date will be converted to GMT before it is stored in database and the response back will be converted from GMT back to the time zone of the requester and have the application server/database server configured to UTC time.Is this a good strategy or is there a better one.
Thanks

Are you starting with a java.util.Date or perhaps a java.sql.Timestamp?
Then you do NOT convert them. You display them. You use SimpleDateFormat for that. You do not concern yourself at all with timezones exception in terms of creating a SimpleDateFormat. And that is ONLY an issue if you are creating the string (display value) on a server. If you are doing that you will need the client to provide you with a timezone. There is no magic way to get that from the client. If a client app is doing the display the the client is running in a client VM and that VM will already have a display format that might be suitable.
Conversely if you are receiving a timestamp value as a text value (say read it from a file) then you must convert that into a java.util.Date. You do that via SimpleDateFormat. The specifics of how you do that depends on the form of the text value.

Duet makes noise after switching between finder audio and Logic

Hi
My Duet makes noise after switching between "finder audio" and "Logic", In other words i would play a mp3 in the finder and when returning to Logic all my audio sounds like the "lo-fi" RTAS free plug digidesign gives away now.
This is happening on a White *iMac 24"*
Model Name: iMac
Model Identifier: iMac6,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.33 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 4 MB
Memory: 2 GB
Bus Speed: 667 MHz
Boot ROM Version: IM61.0093.B07
SMC Version (system): 1.10f3
MacOsx 10,5,7

Does this happen every single time? The same thing happens to me every once in a while. I just close Logic and Maestro and unplug the Duet. Then, in this order, plug in the Duet, wait for it to click, load Maestro, load Logic. Works every time.
Edit: It does only seem to happen when I switch from Logic and the audio output from the Duet to internal and then come back quickly. I don't think it's an issue with the Duet hardware itself.

Delaying when switching between apple mail and safari

just on mavericks.
it more or less looks and feel ok but...
when I switch between apple mail and safari, everything "freezes" for some seconds (up to 30).
anyone similar experiences?
what could be the cause of that?
its really disturbing.

I am a little puzzled by the libraries and switching between the libraries. My personal computer has the majority of the movies and content that would be transfered to the appletv. I chose to only select a minimal amount of content (of movies and tv shows, music via playlists) so there would be space left that would hold photos. Also, i just want to send over only what I want to view (manual synch) If I switch to my Kids library, it streams all the content well (movies & tv shows)(which is fine and streams well) If I switch back to my library, it shows every movie, every tv show, hundreds of music playlist that I did not choose to see. (stream mode) The only fix is to reboot the computer, and all is well. anyone experience this issue?

MacBook Pro won't automatically switch between internal speakers and display audio

I have a MacBook Pro that connects to a LED Cinema display. It used to automatically switch between internal speakers and display audio when plugged in to the display but won't anymore. I have to manually change it in System Preferences --> Sound. Does anyone know how to make it do that again?
thanks,
Ben

I just want to add, I have the same problem, and just want to help raise awareness of it.
1st, the problem only started recently (have been using the Thunderbolt display since it was released), I did not have this problem, and noticed it beginning only in the last month. (since January)
2nd, My particular setup, includes a hard drive attached to the firewire port on the back of the Thunderbolt Display (so, I am wondering if anyone else experienced this problem with a firewire drive being connected).
     My full setup:
          Macbook Air (2011)
         Thunderbolt display
          Western Digital drive (attached to firewire of display)
3rd, If I go into settings, what I will see is the "Display Audio" is selected (but no sound coming out),
If I then select "Internal Speakers," a buffered "history" of all the sounds I did not hear is then played (pretty funny actually) - for example, if I sent mail, adjusted the volume, and started playing a song.... it immediately plays all those sounds when selecting "Internal Speakers"
4th, If i then select "Display Audio" - it does nothing
5th, what I have to do, to resolve this is: eject all my hard drives, disconnect the thunderbolt cable, then reconnect the thunderbolt cable, and everything works as normal.

Add a simple switch to PDF Reader to change between MY-VIEW and ORIGINAL-VIEW

I would like to open pdf file with my same default viewing preference *every single time* that I open a PDF file, regardless of what the original document creator set as the default view. It would be nice to have a SIMPLE switch between MY-VIEW and ORIGINAL-VIEW. It's very frustrating to have to keep switching my view preferences every time I open a new file with a different default.

Thank you Bernd, but that is only part of the solution. For example, I do set the Page Layout to 1-page-continuous. MOST of the time it keeps this setting, but some documents either override that setting, or perhaps it reverts back to a default (maybe with version upgrades?). The other part is that I always want the menu-bar and toolbar to show up. Some documents hide these when they open. I realize that I can hit [F8] and/or [F9] to toggle these, but there are additional settings. I also want to always have the selection tools available, etc. Bottom Line: I just want a collection of settings that I can call up with a single, simple shortcut or button, so I don't have to perform multiple steps just to get the tool back to my standard configuration whenever something changes it.

Using a KVM switch between the Mini and a PC

I've just bought a Mini to try out the whole Mac experience.
I'm having trouble getting a KVM switch to work with the Mac.
I have a Tripp Lite B034-002-R KVM switch to share between the Mini and my WinXP PC. The switch changes over to the other computer when you press NUM LOCK twice within 2 seconds. This is working in the PC (i.e. switching from the PC to the Mac is fine) but is not working in the Mac (i.e. the switch doesn't change from the Mac to the PC).
I have a MS "Natural Keyboard Pro" USB keyboard.
Is the NUM LOCK key somehow disabled or something on the Mac? I'm hoping there's some knob I can turn to get this working.
Thanks for your help,
Tom

I bought an IOGEAR GCS632U KVM switch to move between my Mini and Windows XP Pro PC. The keyboard is an Apple Pro. The switch was perfect for several days, then every attempt at invoking the hot key mode would fail; resetting the switch would not correct the problem. IOGEAR Support had me try another keyboard, which is the current standard Apple wired keyboard (the $30 one); it had the same problem as the Pro keyboard. Also we tried other things, but all failed. Sent the KVM switch to IOGEAR and they sent me a new one. After two days using the new switch, the keyboard malfunctioned; this time it was the backward delete key that failed. Same problem using other Apple keyboard. IOGEAR Support, after going through the same previous routine in which nothing succeeded in correcting the problem, tells me to return the switch and they will send me another. Based on my experience, apparently the GCS632U model has an incompatibility problem with (some?) Apple keyboards. This is confirmed by two posts on other discussion groups sites. Also, IOGEAR Support would almost admit that to be the case. They suggested that I use a generic keyboard, but I refuse to buy one just to use that KVM switch. IOGEAR should post the potential problem on their website as a warning.
Does anyone out there know from experience that a particular IOGEAR model does work with an Apple keyboard? IOGEAR Support says that they will send me a different model if I pay the difference. Or can anyone give me the brand name and model number of any KVM switch known to be compatible with Apple keyboards (particularly one that costs less thatn $75)? A ConnectPro 2-port USB KVM switch will work, according to another discussion group post. Any advice or information will be much appreciated.

Iphone switching between pod cast and Ipod shuffle

Hello, I have an IPhone 3 G and while I am running at my gym it keeps switching between my IPod and my podcast player. I have checked my internet connections and it is fine. I know I am not hitting the shuffle buttoon because I turn the sceen saver off, after I have selected the Pod Cast music that I like. Is it the head phones or the IPhone?

One thing that might help out.
The button on the headphones does not have the ability to shuffle media files.
One click to pause or play. two clicks to advance to the next track.
Here is a link to the iphone user guide that might help out.
Check out page 63 for shuffle and repeat features.

CS6/CC - switching between source monitor and timeline disaster

Now what is this?
It all works fine until you try DV Output.
In DV Output mode every time you switch between source monitor and the timeline it goes to some scary ritual:
1. output disabled on external monitor
2. some crazy flickering happens
3. ok, now updated picture on external monitor finally appears
Same happens when switching back to timeline.
Also when scrubbing through timeline video and audio is late for a few centuries on DV device/external monitor/speaker.
Why Adobe screwed firewire environment editing? I'm thinking about changing my job. Editing with Premiere is killing me lately. I'm thinking about starting to work with bees or strawberries, or something else less frustrating.
And Premiere CS 5.5 was the best editing software ever released. It has no similar problems. Why CS6 and CC are retarded?

I'm just asking for properly working feature which is alredy implemented and worked fine in earlier versions.
Adobe, can this be fixed, please?
