How can my java application get its own PID?
My java application runs under AIX?
The application needs to get its own PID.
There is a possibility to get it by
Runtime.exec("ps -ef | grep <user.name>");
But is there any other alternate possibility?
Any idea would be great appreciated
kind regardsHello! I found several ways for this in a blog from someone called Igor Minar on
http://net3x.blogspot.com/2007/03/how-java-application-can-discover-its.html
He found several ways:
* Use Java management and monitoring API
ManagementFactory.getRuntimeMXBean().getName();returns something like
1826@localhost
where 1826 is the PID of the JVM process, i.e. my application's process. But this hack is JVM dependent and may not work on JVM's other than Sun's
* Use a shell script to put a property in place that is set to the PID:
exec java -Dpid=$$ -jar myapp.jar* Java Native Interface - cumbersome and platform dependent solution
* Use procfs (Linux solution: read /proc/self, nifty nifty, posted in the comments of the resp. post!)
int pid = Integer.parseInt( ( new File("/proc/self")).getCanonicalFile().getName() );* From another comment: Reflection will work (on Unix): The Process class has a field called pid which can be queried:
static int getPID(Process process) throws IllegalAccessException, IllegalArgumentException,
NoSuchFieldException, SecurityException
Field field = process.getClass().getDeclaredField("pid");
field.setAccessible(true);
return field.getInt(process);
}But this solution looks a bit of a kludge to me. I think the /proc/self solution is best - it definitely rox my sox!
Hope this helps! -
I am unable to share photos from the Iphoto program because I don't know the password for the SMTP account. How can I either retrieve or change that password? Or is it one I already should know?
Have you set the general preferences in iPhoto to email using iPhoto? Then change it to email using "Mail". This way iPhoto will use your regular Mail account.

How can my java application fill out an online form
Hi,
I am trying to create a Java application that will connect to a URL, fill out the form and submit it.
How would I go about doing this?
Thanks in advance,
ChanieI'm doing something exceedingly similar, but I'm not sure how to get it to work, to be honest. Basically, I'm trying to download information from a site that requires a username and password. The html of the site is as follows, as well as my code. Any help would be appreciated!
<form method="post" action="/cards/FALLON19790309A.php">
<p>Username: <input type="text" name="username" size="16" maxlength="16" value=></p>
<p>Password: <input type="password" name="password" size="16" maxlength="16"></p>
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="muffinklezmer">
<input type="hidden" name="nocache" value="1046986423">
<input type="submit" value="Log in"></form>
My code right now looks like this:
URL playerCard = new URL("http://www.webpage.com");
URLConnection pcConnection= playerCard.openConnection();
pcConnection.setRequestProperty("username","ABCDE");
pcConnection.setRequestProperty("password","12345");
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(
pcConnection.getInputStream()));
pcConnection.connect();
String inputLine = in.readLine();
while (inputLine != null)
System.out.println(inputLine);
inputLine = in.readLine();

How to run java application in Unix Box
Hi,
Would anybody show me how to run my server application in unix box?
Thank you very much.
HungYour application should have a main class. Suppose it's called MyMain.class. I'll assume it's in the anonymous package. So you cd to the directory containing the class, and type java MyMainIf it's not in the default package, or is a jar file, say so.

***How to use Java to change user password in *mdw file?
Hi,
Is it possible to use java to change user's password in the MS Access workgroup file(*mdw)? I have been searching for this topic for a long time, but no discoveries yet. Anyone has any idea?
Sincerely,
nonameisnameThere is probably a windows API call that does it.
Once you find it, you wrap it in C code and then use JNI to call it from Java. -

my ipad2 is asking old id password, when i go to forget password link for that id then I am not getting any mail to reset the same. Please help how can i remove or change the old id.
You cannot remove or change the old ID. This is Find My iPhone Activation Lock. You need to recover the credentials for the Apple ID originally used to activate the iPad.
Check your spam and junk folders. -
I have verified my new email address as my Apple ID but my IOS devices keep asking me to sign in to my previous email/Apple ID but have no access to it. How can I stop or change this?
To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted. If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

how can I reset my iPad YouTube password? I can't sign into youtube on iPad. It says Username or password is wrong although both are correct when I log into YouTube account via Google. I also tried my husbands youtube login and password and the same outcome. Now I cant log into YouTube via the iPad account. I can log into Youtube via Google however my subscriptions and favorites are all gone. Can I reset the YouTube account located on the iPad? I cant seem to reset the password or delete the app and re-add. I dont want to reset the iPad since I have alot of videos and pictures on it.
Do you have Google 2 stage authentication turned on?
If so, you wont't be able to use your normal google password, but will have to instead generate an "application specific" password for the iPad YouTube app in the google security settings section. -
How can I connect to a UNIX server to execute a command?
How can I connect to a UNIX server and execute a command using PowerShell? My shell script is sitting on one server, while the UNIX box is on another.
also, I don't like the idea of hardcoding a username/password within the script file in order to do so.
-Nothing to see. Move along.You will need a library to handle SSH connections.
I'm using SSH.NET, you can find info on it here : http://www.powershelladmin.com/wiki/SSH_from_PowerShell_using_the_SSH.NET_library
It has a bit of a learning curve but the web site has some fairly good tutorials. -
How can I find out what my password on the computer is? I had to change it due to my teenagers helping themselves, and now every time there is a system update, I have to have the password, which I cannot remember or find. It then wants it every time I log in and pops up Key Chain Access as well. Very annoying. I do not have the disc to reload it and fear I would loose everything on my computer as there is also trouble with the back up system. Too many issues and not enough solutions. Many thanks in advance!
I do not have the disc to reload
Why not? You need your system dvds to troubleshoot & to reset/change passwords in view of your current OS listed in your profile.
You can get replacement System Install & Restore CD/DVDs from Apple's Customer Support - in the US, (800) 767-2775 - for a nominal S&H fee. You'll need to have the model and/or serial number of your Mac available.
If you're not in the US, you may need to go through the regional Apple Store that serves your location to find the contact number. Here's a list of links to all of those - http://store.apple.com/Catalog/US/Images/intlstoreroutingpage.html Another resource: International Support Phone #s.

I have to have the password, which I cannot remember or find.
When selecting passwords, make sure it's one that you will NEVER forget AND no one else can figure out.
Old school--- > Print it out & keep in a safe place. A place that ONLY you know about AND never forget.
New school---> Get a password manager utility. Highly recommend 1Password which is shareware. Do a Google search for free password managers. -
How can I find my user name password as I only remember my administrator password?I don't want to lose things or content.
If you have only one account, then your admin password is your user password. If you use another account that is not an admin account, then log into your admin account from which you can change the password on your user account.

How can I get the iCloud/iTunes password for my (now) deceased Father-in-Law's iMac? I have a list of his passwords, but nothing works! I know his email, but that account has been cancelled for security purposes, so we can't just request a new one. I tried his security questions to no avail.
ThanksSince that password is tied to his Apple ID, you will need to contact Apple; as far as I know, it will be a somewhat lengthy procedure and you will need to furnish necessary paperwork (including a death certificate as far as I know). Best to either stop at an Apple store or call them to find out exactly what it is you need to do.
