How to localize strings in java

Hi,I am a beginner.In my sample application,there is a query which gets executed when i click on a button and generates the result set from a database.I am passing a parameter when i click on button.But this is not working with any other locale.How to pass the locale specific string as the parameter and get the resultset.Kindly suggest if there is any encoding to convert strings.
Can any body plz help me out...It's very urgent.......
Thanks in advance

In my application,I am passing string as parameter.For example if i want an item called "Street Address " which is in "address" table in the database.I pass "Street Address" as paarmeter.I want to make this work on japanese locale also.I want an encoding scheme to get japanese string from this english and vice-versa.I think now i am clear.Please suggest me some way.
Thanks

How can i encrypt an ddecrypt a string using java

hai,
can anybody know how to encrypt and decrypt a string using java..
please if anybody help me with a small example and with code
thanks
ravi chandra

hi,
of course there are better ways to crypt your code, but the following 2 functions do their job....
as far as i know java has an own api for crypting stuff.
private String GetEncryptedString(String aCryptedString)
String result = "";
String str = aCryptedString;
int[] asciiArray = new int[str.length()];
for(int i = 0; i < asciiArray.length; i++)
asciiArray[i] = (int)str.charAt(i);
char tempChar = (char)(asciiArray[i]+3);
result = result+tempChar;
return result;
private String GetDecryptedString(String aString)
String result = "";
String str = aString;
int[] asciiArray = new int[str.length()];
for(int i = 0; i < asciiArray.length; i++)
asciiArray[i] = (int)str.charAt(i);
char tempChar = (char)(asciiArray[i]-3);
result = result+tempChar;
return result;

How to search for upper/lower case using string using JAVA!!!?

-I am trying to write a program that will examine each letter in the string and count how many time the upper-case letter 'E' appears, and how many times the lower-case letter 'e' appears.
-I also have to use a JOptionPane.showMessageDialog() to tell the user how many upper and lower case e's were in the string.
-This will be repeated until the user types the word "Stop".
please help if you can
what i have so far:
[code]
public class Project0 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String[] uppercase = {'E'};
String[] lowercase = {'e'};

   // with text input
   inputWord = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Please enter a sentence");
   if ( inputWord.equals("stop") )

    isOrIsNot = "Number of lower case e's: ";
   if (wordIsThere(inputword, uppercase))
     isOrIsNot = "number of upper case e's: ";
   // Output to a JOptionPane window whether the word is on the list or not

How to convert number to string in java

hi how can i convert number to string in java
something like
public void Discription(Number ownerName){
String.valueOf(ownerName);Edited by: adf009 on 2013/04/08 7:14 PM

Yet another way of doing it is: ownerName.toString().
If you are working in and IDE such as Netbeans or Eclipse, type a period after the object name. Wait a second or so. Eclipse/Netbeans Intellisense will show you a list of functions that object provides that you can choose from. toString() is one of them.

How do I compress a string with java.util.zip - not a file ?

How do I compress a string with java.util.zip?
Is possible to compress something else except a file?

Of course, compression works on bytes, not some higher level constructs like Strings or files.
You can use the ZipOutputStream or DeflaterOutputStream for compression.
And the javadoc for Deflater even has a code example of compressing a String.

How to convert localization strings returned from RIDC calls?

I'm using the RIDC API to extract some data from UCM, but I'm running into issues where some values returned from service calls are the actual localization strings ("wwDocTypeDesc_Application" for example), not their translated values.
Is there a service or method I can use to translate the strings? Something that evaluates IdocScript perhaps?

Hey Mike,
Please refer the following link.
http://www.corecontentonly.com/index.php/2008/09/16/executing-idocscript-from-java-page-merger/
looks like customization is the way forward from here. Just create a custom service, call your default ucm service from withing and before you pass on results fetch the required variable and send back.
I know this is something that should have been taken care be them.
cheers,

How to get string value from xml in JSF??

In JSF How to get string value from xml, .ini and properties file. I want to get string value from xml or text to JSF

Just use the appropriate API's for that. There are enough API's out which can read/parse/write XML, ini and properties files. E.g. JAXP or DOM4J for xml files, INI4J for ini files and Sun's own java.util.Properties for propertiesfiles.
JSF supports properties files as message bundle and resource bundle so that you can use them for error messages and/or localization.

Sending Hebrew Strings From Java to ABAP

Hello everybody,
I'm trying to send a string from WebDynpo Java code to a SAP transaction on the R3 system.
When I'm sending a string in English it arrives correctly
When I'm sending a string in Hebrew it arrives as a sequence of question marks.
Does anyone knows what kind of conversions do I need to do so I'll be able to send Hebrew strings?
Thanks in advance, Adi.

Hi,
When u say that you are sending a hebrew string did you localized ur string usig ResourceBundle class from your Webdynpro,check it first.
Refer SAP OSS notes for how to send String other than English to R/3 system and detailed configuration required.
Refer this for help on Localization,
Internationalization is used for adapting already existing Webdynpros application
Without changing the source code so that they can be used in several multi lingual languages.
Here we keep text strings separately from the application source code in a particular format(keys & values) so they can be processed in the standard translation mechanism.
Here frequently used texts such as labels or titles are stored as java dictionary simple types objects.
To do internationalization, copy the automatically generated *.xlf files and save them under the new name in the same directory.
For eg :- file convention like <old filename>_<language key>.xlf. Ex:- For German use the language key de.
For a particular user the locale is specified by the User management engine.
If not the locale is handled by the browser setting(HTTP Headers)
If not the default locale specified by the application will be returned.
If not default locale of the Virtual Machine(VM) is returned
This locale is passed to java.lang.ResourceBundle in the J2EE engine.
This will load the physically existing resource bundle either from any one of the following :-
Resource bundle of WD(if exists) or resource bundle of VM (if exists) or
Resource Bundle of without language suffix(always exists) given by the developer.
I will post if anything strikes me.
Hope it helps.

How do i run a java program an another directory?

How do I run a java program that's in a different directory?
I have been doing this in the command line:
java "C:\Document and Settings\freeOn\Desktop\Java\Test\test"
and I get
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
C:\Document and Settings\freeOn\Desktop\Java\Test\test
I just thought there might be a quick way to do this and not
have to cd to the following dir evertime i want to run an app in
console.
The test.java file is this:
import java.io.*;
public class test {
public static void main(String args[]) {
System.out.println("Testing.....");

Ok I looked in the java help and found the classpath, this makes it alittle easier.
java -cp C:\DOCUME~1\freeOn\Desktop\Java\Test\ test
At least i can run this in the run dialog which makes it easier thanks for you help kota balaji

How do u get a Java method to call itself? Not working here.

How do u get a Java method to call itself? Not working here. I am using the "this" keyword. Thanks.
Below, I would like to call checkIt method in itself.
Ex.
public class ABC {
public String checkIt(String abc){
if....
checkIt(abc);
}

Assuming you are getting stack overflows (likely if you're unfamiliar with recursive calls), you need to put some sort of check condition inside the method so it doesn't call itself endlessly (AKA "infinite recursion").

Convert String to java UTC date then to sql date

Hi,
I am trying to convert string (MM/dd/yyyy format) to UTC date time and store in the database.
This is what I did:
String dateAsString = "10/01/2007";
SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");
formatter.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));
formatter.setLenient(false);
java.util.date dateValue = formatter.parse(dateAsString, new ParsePosition(0));
dateValue will be Sun Sep 30 20:00:00 EDT 2007 in UTC.
Now I need to store this date and time to MS SQL database.
I used the following code:
java.sql.Date sqlDateValue = new java.sql.Date(parsedToDate.getTime());
But this code give only the date, not time 2007-09-30
Can anybody tell me how I can change this java date to sql date (or datetime?) so that I can get both date and time.
Thanks,
semaj

Selection of Localizable.strings and .strings file naming?

Hi Apple Developer Folks,
In the process of embedding Internalization for strings in my project, I referred to the "InternationalMountains" sample code project.
In that project there are three languages supported, English, French and Chinese.
What I do not understand is why all three Localizable.strings files have been checked in Localization section of the File Inspector.
This is the case for the other two such files, as well.
(See the full sized image at http://www.drake.org/images/AllThreeBoxes.jpg )
Also, I have one other question: "What is the suggested mechanism for controlling the NAMING of the Localizable.strings files?"
If I wanted to name the files something like "StandardApp.strings" or "ProApp.strings" - where and how would that be accomplished?
As it is, if the files are not named "Localizable.strings" - the NSLocalizedString(key, comment); calls do not work as intended.
Thanks very much!

I'm guessing that most use the default naming of the localization strings files, which are packaged with related localized files in the appropriate resource folder - your screenshot is just showing that there are three localizations for that name.
You can use any name you want when creating a strings file - Foundation's NSLocalizedString just uses the default Localizable.string file name by calling NSBundle's localizedStringForKey:value:table: method with a nil value for the table. You can use other names by calling that method or by using Foundation's NSLocalizedStringFromTable, passing the desired table name (the file to use).

How to export string in CDATA with the jaxb xml writer?

How to export string in CDATA with the jaxb xml writer?
It read CDATA no problem but it is lost on write.

Found it:
### THIS WORKS WITH SUN JAXB REFERENCE IMPLEMENTATION. ###
(Not tested with any other)
In the xsd, you must create a type for your string-like element.
Then associate a data type converter class to this new type, which will produce CDATA tags.
Then you must set a custom characterEscapeHandler to avoid the default xml escaping in order to preserve the previously produced CDATA tag.
Good luck.
-----type converter-----
