How to get the location of the caret?

Hello
I want to get the location of the caret. Not the offset of the document.
I have tried the Caret.getMagicCaretPosition(), but I think it gives me a point in viewport.
How can I get the absoult location of the caret(the location on screen ,not in viewport)?
Thank you very much.
Best wishes

Thankyou ,You reply seems to help me ,but I am still confused that this method returns void ,how can I get the result of the point on screen?
When I want the caret location (the caret belongs to a JTextPane) on screen, I invoke :
SwingUtilities.convertPointToScreen(textPane.getCaret().getMagicCaretPositon(),textPane);
but how can I get the result of the convertion?
Thank you!

How to get the caret inside a custom editor?

I was reading through old posts the other day and noticed this by Rob Camick in this thread Re: Problem in cell selection in JTable Java Swing :
camickr wrote:
All KeyEvents are passed to the editor for the cell and the editor is psuedo invoked. That is, the caret is not placed on the text field used as the editor, but the character typed is added to the editor.This set me thinking about a known issue in my app which I had shelved for a "rainy day": how to get the caret into the cell editor component. I thought I'd get it out and look at it. I tried the following, in my custom cell editor:
public Component getTableCellEditorComponent(JTable table, Object value, boolean isSelected,
                                             int row, int column)
    JTextField ec = (JTextField) editorComponent;
    ec.setText((String) value);
    if ("".equals(ec.getText()))
      ec.setCaretPosition(0);
    else
      ec.selectAll();
    return editorComponent;
}But it has no effect whatsoever, the user still can't type something in and then press the backspace key to useful effect. Has anyone out there solved this problem? (And why, oh why, is the caret not put into the cell editor by default, if it's a component that has a caret?)

Replying to my own post, in case what I ended up with is of some help to others. The desired behaviour was that anything the cell contained from the previous edit would be replaced by what the user types in the current edit, i.e.:
user starts edit, types 234, stops editing, cell displays 234...user single-clicks on cell, types 567, stops editing, cell displays 567
My code is as follows:
    public Component getTableCellEditorComponent(JTable table, Object value,
                                                 boolean isSelected, int row,
                                                 int column)
      final JTextField ec = (JTextField) editorComponent;
      ec.setText((String) value);
      // selectAll, so that whatever the user types replaces what we just put there
      ec.selectAll();
      SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable()
        public void run()
          // make the component take the keyboard focus, so the backspace key works
          ec.requestFocus();
          SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable()
            public void run()
              // at this point the user has typed something into the cell and we
              // want the caret to be AFTER that character, so that the next one
              // comes in on the RHS
              ec.setCaretPosition(ec.getText().length());
      return editorComponent;
    }

How to get the caret position of component embedded in JTextPane?

Hi great java developers ;-)
I want to get the caret position of component which is embedded in StyledDocument / JTextPane.
How has it to be done?
Thank you very much!!!

The Document doesn't know which textPane it belongs to. (It could even be shared by mulitple textPanes).
You get the caret position of a any text component by using:
textComponent.getCaretPosition();

How to get the current caret position of a field

I would like to mimic a feature known from some UI parts in Eclipse (especially launch configurations) - inserting a predefined variable. It allows to modify the value of a text field by inserting a special value to the position of the caret.
I'm struggling with how to get the caret position in Sapphire since the model does not propagate such UI-specific info. Is there a way how to implement this which does not involve creating a special field implementation?
Thanks in advance.

Sorry for the delay in responding. Currently, there is no API available to implement what you are describing. We should add a TextSelectionService similar to the existing ListSelectionService.

Hi Eduardo Cordeiro,
Sorry in reaching you late...I was out on a trip...
You need to put the javascript in your Flex application html wrapper file ...in which your Flex application SWF is embedded.
Write the Javascript function in your html file as below :
function getBrowserLanguage()
var browserLanguage = navigator.browserLanguage;
return browserLanguage;
//In your mxml File you can access the JavaScript function in your MXML as below:
var browserLang:String = ExternalInterface.call('getBrowserType');

My iPhone getting stolen,how I get the actual location my iPhone way using the apps find my iPhone?

My iPhone getting stolen,how I get the actual location the full address to find my iPhone way using the apps find my iPhone?

If you set up the Find My iPhone service prior to your iPhone going missing - the app is for tracking a device from another iOS device - then there is a chance that can be tracked, though it depends on a number of factors (the iPhone is turned on, connected to either the 3G or a WiFi network, or has not had the Find My iPhone service disabled or the iPhone been completely restored). Log into icloud.com and go to the Find My iPhone section. If you did not set up Find My iPhone, check with your cell carrier. Some carriers offer their own tracking service, though you usually have to pay for it.
If your carrier does not offer such a service and you did not set up Find My iPhone, then there is no way to track the unit. Contact the police and change any passwords for any online accounts you may have used from your iPhone (the iTunes Store, for instance).

How to get the UserTransaction object in stateless session bean

Hi, I am using jboss server and jdk5 version and using EJB.
My Application flow :

I tried to get the UserTransaction object in my Action. Its my code.
InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
UserTransaction uTrans = (UserTransaction) ctx.lookup("java:comp/UserTransaction");
After used uTrans.begin(),uTrans.commit() and uTrans. rollback () also.
Its working fine .
But, I used the the same code inside in my session bean its not working.
Stateless Session Manager Bean code :
public class SampleManagerBean implements SessionBean {
public void ejbCreate() throws CreateException { }
public void ejbRemove() { }
public void ejbActivate() {   }

Its throws the error ie: javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: UserTransaction not bound
How to get the UserTransaction object in my session bean. Kindly give solution the above errors.
- Thendral

first of all, you could just use sessionContext.getUserTransaction(). however, that would only work if your bean is using bean-managed transactions. the default is container-managed transaction, in which case you cannot get a UserTransaction object. if you want to manage transactions, you need to add the TransactionManagementType.BEAN annotation to your ejb.

but i am able to retrive Sun\AppServer\domains\domain1 upto this .i am unable to retrive Sun\AppServer\domains\domain1\applications\j2ee-apps.

How to get the absolute path of logicalhost server domain on Windows?

My logicalhost server domain behaves strangely. I am reading a file from collaboration definiton, that is located in the logicalhost/is/domains/domain1/config folder. I thought, that this folder is used as an application root folder so I can read files like ./file from there. And it worked.
But then I've installed the domain as a Windows service, restarted the PC. When the domain1 gets started, I get exceptions saying that the file can't be found. Then I restart the domain (in domainmgr.bat) and it works again.
I am pretty sure that using the absolute path will solve this issue, so my first question is: How to get the absolute path of logicalhost server domain on Windows?
And my second question is: Why does this happen?

The default folder for a Windows Service is the system32 folder contrary to the instance root folder when starting it as a normal process.
That's the why, haven't tried the how, but you should be able to get the value by calling System.getProperty("com.sun.aas.instanceRoot").
Hope this helps

How to get the UDDI Key to publish a service provider system in SR?

Hi,
I am following instruction in appendix 1 & 2 of the white paper at https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/1079b1af-dcb7-2b10-9ebb-eafcaa3cbbea?overridelayout=true
trying to publish a service provider system into the service registry. One thing not clear to me is how to get the uddikey as needed in step 6 in appendix 1.
My service registry is in a PI 7.1 SP4 system. I followed the instruction in appendix 2 but there is no uddi key displayed in the General tab. Please help.
Regards,
Jiannan
Paragraph extracted from the whitepaper:
There may be cases in which the NWA logical settings do not match the Services Repository
settings when Visual Composer is trying to locate the enterprise services. Such cases can occur
when there is no SLD ID definition of the physical system in the Services Repository.
Currently, Visual Composer cannot search for services on a physical system with an empty SLD ID
(which is not a valid one).
To obtain this capability, the following steps should be performed to generate the necessary data
for each system with a non-valid SLD ID, so that Visual Composer can search for services over it.
1.Log on to http://<serverName>:<serverPort>/WSNavigator.
2.Select the Services Registry radio button.
3.In the Find field, enter sr and choose Go.
4.Select the ServicesRegistrySi line and choose Next.
5.Under the Operation Name, search for the publishPhysicalSystems operation, select it and choose Next.
6.Fill the service information parameters with the following (see Appendix 2 for details on how to get this information) :
6.1.Click the + icon in the physical system[].
6.2.Deselect the Classifications checkbox.
6.3.Click the + icon in the classificationReferenceGroups[].
6.4.Click the + icon in the classificationReferences[].
6.5.Deselect the classificationSystemKey checkbox.
6.6.Deselect the uddiKey checkbox and enter the value <localUddiKey>.
6.7.Deselect the value checkbox and enter the value <localSystemHostName>.
6.8.Deselect the host checkbox and enter the value <localHostName>.
6.9.Deselect the physicalSystemKey checkbox.
6.10.Deselect the logical key checkbox and enter the value <System name>.<SystemHome>.<host name>.
6.11.Deselect the systemName checkbox and enter the value <system name>.
6.12.Deselect the type checkbox and enter the value 2.

Hi Jiannan,
No worries, you can go to UDDI client from the main page of PI i.e. http://<serverName>:<serverPort>/
And you use the search function for the TModel for your Physical System. Search parameters can use the % wildcard.
Hit the search and you find the UDDI Key for the Physical System.
Cheers.

How to get the current page URL

HI All
I am working in oracle apps 4.0
I have one page called history in that i have one page item called Application url. My application id is 122 but its a copy of application 106
How to get the current page url for the page item.
Any steps should be help ful
Thanks & Regards
Srikkanth.M

I'm not 100% clear on what the requirement is from the description, however it does sound like you are making things unnecessarily complicated.
If you want permanent/ID-independent links then use application and page aliases.
so here we used to display the url like this: <tt>{noformat}http://81.131.254.171:8080/apex/f?p=122{noformat}</tt>
Do you mean that the URL is displayed like that? If so that doesn't seem particularly helpful. How is anyone supposed to know what it is?
There are many ways to provide links in APEX—including lists and nav bars.
Where the link is to another resource located on the same server (such as another page in the same app, or a different app in the workspace), relative addressing can be used, making it unecessary to include scheme, domain and port information in the URL. For example, if the page to be linked to has a page alias <tt>ABOUT</tt> in an application with alias <tt>UNITY</tt>, and the apps share an authentication scheme/cookie to permit shared sessions, then the link URL is simply
f?p=UNITY:ABOUT:&APP_SESSION.

How to get the pull path name from a file upload window

Hello everyone!
I have encountered the following problem with the following JSP code:
<form method="post" action="filename.jsp">
Upload JAVA program:
<input type=file size=20 name="fname" accept="java">
<input type=submit value="go">
</form>
<%
String s = "";
if (request.getParameter("fname") != null)
s = request.getParameter("fname")
%>
The value of s is alway the filename. However I want to get the full path in addition to the filename, so that I can read the file. Does anyone know how to get the pull name of the file?
thanks a lot in advance,

Dear Sir,
thanks a lot for your reply. Please let me explain what I intended to do: I want to upload a file from the local machine and then read the content of the file. Therefore I need to the fullpath of the filename like /var/local/file.java instead of file.java. The latter is what I got.
The problem I have with your code is that the function like "request.getServerScheme()" is not recognized. Maybe is it because I didn't install servelet package? I only installed javax package btw. Also my application runns on Tomcat server if this could give you some information. The error message I had is as follows:

How to get the local file system path of an image that loaded into the image component in cq5?

Hi,
I'm having hard time uploading image from filesystem where as drag and drop works.
I'm not getting a path of image selected from filesystem.
here is my code..
private String populateImage() throws Exception {
                    if (currentNode != null && currentNode.isNode()) {
                                   Node ImageNode = JcrResourceUtil.createPath(currentNode, "image",
                                                                      null, "nt:unstructured", true);
                                   imageUrl = ImageNode.hasProperty("fileReference") ? ImageNode.getProperty("fileReference").getValue().getString() : "";
       imageUrl = imageUrl.trim();
        log.info("MANAGE PROFILE BEAN IMAGE URL INSIDE IF IS: " + imageUrl);
                    } else {
                                        imageUrl = properties.get("fileReference", "");
                                        imageUrl = imageUrl.trim();
                                        log.info("MANAGE PROFILE BEAN IMAGE URL INSIDE ELSE IS: " + imageUrl);
                    return imageUrl;
So if I drag and drop..
ImageNode.hasProperty("fileReference") is returning a valid path
but if I upload an image it is returning Null.
So how to get the path? any suggestions around would be appreciated...

When you say path you mean you want the path to print out in your HTML? Is that accurate? If so you generally need to constructe that path based on the path to the current component. So if you component is located at /content/mysite/en/about/mypage/jcr:content/parsys/image then the path to the image would generally be something like /content/mysite/en/about/mypage/jcr:content/parsys/image.img.jpg/1283829292873.jpg. The .img. selector triggers the servlet associated with the foundation parbase - /libs/foundation/components/parbase/img.GET.java. The reason you reference it this way is that there is no filesystem path to the image - it is stored in the repository not on the file system, and it requires a servlet or script to ge the binary from the repository and steam it.
Normally the way you'd construct this is to use the out of the box Image class - so look at /libs/foundation/components/image/image.jsp. Now this example assumes that your component where you loaded the image extends /libs/foundation/components/parbase. If it doesn't then you either have to change your sling:superResourceType to /libs/foundation/components/parbase or some other component that does exten /libs/foundation/components/parbase.
