How to redefine (expand) array at runtime?
If I have an array
MyArray = new Object[100];
how can I redefine MyArray -- AT RUNTIME -- to hold 200 Objects instead of 100?
Is that even possible in Java?
Thanks,
Matthew
I think you're right -- but I should be more specific in my example:
MyTable = new Object[100][NUM_FIELDS];
Where "100" is the number of records in the database.
What if I need to add a record to the database?
Now ArrayList might be a good solution, but how would I declare one in my case? The left-most index is the one I'm trying to make "dynamic" via ArrayList, whereas the right-most index is always the same number.
Any code samples, or pointers to a good explanation?
I found the Doc page for ArrayList:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/ArrayList.html
but it doesn't give any examples and doesn't mention multi-dimensional arrays.

How can I allocate memory at runtime?
Hi,
I have declared a an array of objects like.
private SampeObject [] channelAccounts = null;
How can I allocate the memory at runtime(dynamically) ? I tried with
channelAccounts = new SObject(); But its giving runtime null pointer exception.
Can anyone tell me how can I allocate the memory.
Thanks,
Chinnionlinepublic class ArrayAlloExample
public void buildArray()
// Determine how many you want
int howMany = 12 ;
// Declare the array to be the size its supposed to be
SampleObject[] sObjList = new SampleObject[howMany] ;
// Spin through the array and load it with new objects
for(int i=0; i<howMany; i++)
sObjList[i] = new SampleObject() ;
class SampleObject
private String stuff ;
public SampleObject()
super() ;
doStuff() ;
public void doStuff()
stuff = "Put some really spiffy stuff here" ;
}This is an example of how to load an array of objects. That said, there are MUCH better ways of dealing with collections of things than with arrays.
Arrays are handy when you know how many of something you're going to have. If you don't, then I'd reccomend an ArrayList or something similar.
Hope this helps,

How to Search and Array for multiple occurrences of a value
Hi,
I am trying to search an array of doubles for a number and report the index location(s) of a number. I.e. -allow for repetition. Search and report all index[i] where the number is contained in the array. For example I have
double[] myInputArray = new double[5];
double[] myInputArray = { 1, 2, 3, 3, 5 }I know how to search through the array ONCE and return the first occurrence of a number:
public double GetIndexOf(double Number) {
for (int i=0; i<myInputArray.length; i++) {
if (myInputArray[i] == Number){
return(i);
return(-1);
}How do I expand this code to report multiple index[i] locations if the number reoccurs in the array like the number 3 does in my example array above?The way the Java libraries do this type of operation (String.indexOf(), etc) is to specify the starting index along with what you want to find.
Changing your example slightly (notice how I fixed your naming and more importantly, your return type):
public int indexOf(double num) {
return indexOf(num, 0);
public int indexOf(double num, int fromIndex) {
for (int i=fromIndex; i<myInputArray.length; i++) {
if (myInputArray[i] == num){
return(i);
return(-1);
//usage to get all indices:
for ( int index = -1; (index = indexOf(num, index+1)) != -1; ) {
System.out.println(index);
}Note that due to how floating point numbers work, you may find doing this on doubles (or any other operation that uses == with double arguments) to give you unexpected results. -
How to update the ItemRenderer at runtime..?
Hi....
am facing a hectic problem with ITemRenderes..
My requirement is like i need to insert a Label and Image in
each item of Horizontal List.
For this i created a ArrayCollection with Lable and
ImagePath. And assigning array as a Dataprovider to HorizontalList.
and am attaching itemrenderer to it (which hold the lable and
image).
code:
var data:ArrayCollection=new ArrayCollection({label:'A',
path:'a.jpg'}, {label:'B', path:'b.jpg'}{label:'C', path:'c.jpg'});
var hList:HorizontalList=new HorizontalList();
hList.dataProvider=data;
hList.itemRenderer=new ClassFactory(rendererObj);
rendererObj holds the Lable Component and Image Componnet..
Now the porblem is am trying to change the horizontal list at
runtime. Like i want to change the lable of selected item in
Horizontal list. Am able to update the arraycollection values. But
its not getting effected in ItemRenderer.
How to update the itemerenderer at runtime...?
Thanks in Advance...

See how that works..you press the button and the itemrenderer
gets drawn into the horiz. list with the values from the
arraycollection.
I didnt implement the picture, but you get the idea on how to
get
the values into the hlist..
hope this helps... -
Does anyone have an explanation of how, from the hardware perspective, collections manage to just keep expanding if required after they have been instantiated? I am wondering because with normal arrays or memalloc memory is allocated or reserved a fixed amout of physical memory size when declared and cannot be increased.
Chrisgeorgemc wrote:
They just do. No, I'm not being flippant, that's all you need to knowI disagree. I think it's worth knowing how collections can expand, though it's not that important to know how these particular implementations do it.
@OP: When you download the JDK, there's a file src.zip that contains the source code for the core APIs. Look in there to see how java.util.ArrayList and java.util.LinkedList work. -
How can I create a Forms9i Runtime for client distribution
Currently we have an application developed in Forms 5.0.6.8.0 our Database has been upgraded to 9i DB. The application is working fine with this combination but we want to upgrade Forms in order to get Oracle Support. We just get the Developer Suite 9i package and we're trying to test our application with this software.
How can I create the client runtime for Forms 9i?
My application will work with Win 95 and 98?
Thanks.Oracle9i Forms is web-only. Forms 6i is the last release of Forms to have client/server and character mode.
You can test Forms from the Builder by installing iDS. To deploy Forms using iAS follow the documentation. It's all there in the deployment guide.
iAS and Forms doco can be found on OTN.

Perhaps Safari isn't quite what you require, too much work involved all the time making it easier to see
Take a look at my customized Firefox:
it always opens to the same size window (or full screen if you like)
it always zooms all web pages 160% (or whateve you like)
it always has large type on the menu bar area. (to whatever you like)
it's very highly customizable, (or use the plain default settings)
has more add-ons than anyone (a real plus when you need it)
has more themes and personas than anyone (make it YOUR browser)
Easier surfing option for hard of seeing users
Safari is about the absolute worst browser since Internet Explorer, it's because Apple has already got your money so there isn't any incentive for them to make a better browser. -
In MONTH, (PC) iCal only clearly lists 2 items a day. The 3rd item is "faded" and bottom portion cut off, w/ a "more" triangle in the lower-right corner. How can I expand (vertically) so the 3rd line posts clearly, and ONLY shows "more" if 4+ events?
Better yet... as there's a lot of "wasted" space w/ too large Month title and empty space surrounding the Month title above and too much space surrounding the month/year slider bar below, how can I minimize these to allow me more usable / valuable calendar "contents" so I don't need to waste so much time clicking "more" just to see the bottom of the truncated third event and find out there are no 4+ events posted that date? i.e. more "user-friendly" presentation?
Thx!

I have recently purchased a hybred 750GbHDD as an upgrade for my MAC Book Pro (Intell Version) I have a boot camp partition to the original 500GB HDD. How can I expand both partitions to fit the new drive?
I have tried bootcamp and have had no luck due to the fact that boot camp doesn't see the additional HDD space of 250Gb. What am I not doing?Ouch, well there is a problem.
This is the stack of partitions on your old drive
EFI (hidden)
Lion (50GB say)
Bootcamp (50GB say)
Lion Recovery Partiton (hidden)
This is the same stack on your new drive imaged from the old one.
EFI (hidden)
Lion (50GB say)
Bootcamp (50GB say)
Lion Recovery Partiton (hidden)
Emtpy Space (100GB say)
This is what you want
EFI (hidden)
Lion (100GB say)
Bootcamp (100GB say)
Lion Recovery Partiton (hidden)
EFI has to be at the top of the drive and Lion Recovery has to be at the bottom of the drive.
And you only have four partitions.
You can't move the Lion Recovery Partition or Bootcamp partiton, however you can expand the Lion Partition into empty space below it. (but can't delete or move the Lion Recovery partition)
Your Duplicator duplicated perfectly, too perfectly Likely would work with same sized drives/partitions.
This is what your going to need to do.
You need to move the Bootcamp partition to a blank external drive using WinClone and disconnect. This is so you have two backups of it. (one on your old 500GB drive)
You will need a drive enclousre or IDE/SATA to USB adapter cable for the older 500GB drive and option key boot from it. (some enclosures can't be booted from so check first Other World Computing is good place to ask)
Download the free Carbon Copy Cloner, grab any new files off the new 750GB internal drive to the old 500GB your booted from.
Open Apple's Disk Utility and Erase with Zero option the entire internal 750GB drive and let it rip, this will map off as many bad sectors and improve reliability.
Now use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone the 500GB Lion + Lion Recovery Partitions to the internal 750GB, it will "fix" things and place Lion Recovery at the bottom of the drive where it belongs, give all the extra space to OS X Lion.
Next your going to have to follow WinClones instructions to restore your Bootcamp, likely you will have to recreate the Bootcamp partition first (in Bootcamp) to the size you want and then clone. Likely Winclone may "fix" Windows to recognize it's in a new larger partition now. I don't know you'll have to check as I haven't used it.
When Bootcamp creates the partition it will place it near the bottom next to the Lion Recovery Partition.
As you know you will have to re-validate Windows with Lord Redmond or it expires as you changed the hardware. -

How to create an array with Generic type?
Hi,
I need to create a typed array T[] from an object array Object[]. This is due to legacy code integration with older collections.
The method signature is simple:public static <T> T[] toTypedArray(Object[] objects)I tried using multiple implementations and go over them in the debugger. None of them create a typed collection as far as I can tell. The type is always Object[].
A simple implementation is just to cast the array and return, however this is not so safe.
What is interesting is that if I create ArrayList<String>, the debugger shows the type of the array in the list as String[].
If I create ArrayList<T>, the class contains Object[] and not T[].
I also triedT[] array = (T[]) Array.newInstance(T[].class.getComponentType(), objects.length);And a few other combinations. All work at runtime, create multiple compilation warnings, and none actually creates T[] array at runtime.
Maybe I am missing something, but Array.newInstace(...) is supposed to create a typed array, and I cannot see any clean way to pass Class<T> into it.T[].class.getComponentType()Returns something based on object and not on T, and T.class is not possible.
So is there anything really wrong here, or should I simply cast the array and live with the warnings?
Any help appreciated!Ok. May be you could keep information about generic type in the your class:
public class Util {
public static <T> T[] toTypedArray(Class<T> cls, Object[] objects){
int size = objects.length;
T[] t = (T[]) java.lang.reflect.Array.newInstance(cls, size);
System.arraycopy(objects, 0, t, 0, size);
return t;
public class Sample<T> {
Class<T> cls;
T[] array;
public Sample(Class<T> cls) {
this.cls = cls;
public void setArray(Object[] objects){
array = Util.toTypedArray(cls, objects);
public T[] getArray(){
return array;
public static void main(String[] args) {
Object[] objects = new Object[] { new LinkedList(), new ArrayList()};
Sample<List> myClass = new Sample<List>(List.class);
myClass.setArray(objects);
for(List elem: myClass.getArray()){
System.out.println(elem.getClass().getName());

How to map an array to fixed fields using Biztalk mapper

In addiction I have to evaluate every single value because when I found some conditions (like if value=0000 output should be NULL).
What would be the best way to do it? I'm thinking to develop a custom functoid but I'm not sure it would be the best way, probably it could be done even using XSLT inline transforms, can you point me in the best direction?
Thank youHi,
You cannot directly map an array output to any single field in BizTalk mapper.
Couple of options :
1) create
the Xslt or inline C# code
Refer:
http://seroter.wordpress.com/2008/10/07/splitting-delimited-values-in-biztalk-maps/
2) Shankycheil has
provided a solution to similar requirement in the below link, u can also refer that.

Rachit
Thank you, I already seen both posts, but I'm not sure they are what I need or I can't understand well how to use them.
Speaking about the first solution, as I told before, in the example I should have an array already formed and delimited by a char (something like "obj1attr1-obj1attr2-ob2attr1-obj2attr2". In this situation probably this example could be a good
point to start from, but how to transform my complex input object in a similar formatted string?
About the second I don't understand well what is the working solution that they have adopted. Is the 4 steps solution suggested by Shankycheil? If yes, how can I loop between all array elements and extract all their values?
