How to write daemons (more explicit)

I have to make a java program to backup and restore encrypted files over a network.
The daemon should :
1 . The daemon has to be able to send messages to all other comps in the network that a user on some machine wants to backup or restore a file.
2. It also needs to be able to find all the files backed up of others as well as my own files on my PC.
3. I will maintain files placed on each PC using hash tables for efficient searching.When this is done the daemon will figure out from a heap of free disk space how many comps are to be involved.I then use a TCPserver or TCPclient class to open connections to them and send or receive encrypted files.
4. Daemon will send messages across the network if any system change(disk space +/-) occurs.The problem is the DAEMON- I have never written a daemon before;I dunno even the libraries u have to import.Could anyone help me out ?Can anyone give me some documentation and links on the same?
Yeah,one more thing how will that daemon calculate free disk space on my computer -any methods would be appeciated -This willl determine what computers to select for back up.
Please help me out
Thanks in advance.

public class Hello {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello world");
java Hello & The above program will run as a deamon. You don't need to fork to run as a daemon. If you want Java's equivalent of fork/exec, the closest thing (though not an exact match) is Runtime.exec. Read the API docs for details on how to use it.
Why are you so reluctant to ask your instructor for clarification?

  • Can anyone share with me how you  write Javadoc?

    Can anyone share with me how their companies write Javadoc?
    Are your developers solely responsible for it? Do your technical writers own it or review it? How do you make sure it's good?
    Right now, my software developers are mostly responsible for writing all the API info and it's of poor quality and really lacking details. I don't mean spelling/grammar-type problems. My developers just don't seem to "get" what information to include, no matter how many guidelines or checklists I give them.
    A very simple example is:
    * Gets the status
    public java.lang.Integer getStatus() {...}With no indication of what status values may be returned and what the values might mean.
    How do you ensure that what you write is actually useful? Please help!
    I'm aware of the method Sun recommends, but I want to know what others do.
    Thank you

    Hi,
    Well, concerning the question what a good API documentation should be. Just imagine, you are a programmer and you want to use that API. You need to know how it works. There can be only three ways to find it:
    (1) The API documentation
    (2) Probing experiments. Even a good documentation may not describe everything. Sometimes, the only way to understand certain things you particularly need may be guessing something, writing a code basing on it and see how it works. Then, guessing something again, more precisely now, and so on. Even a very good documented API (for instance, javax.swing) may require that sort of approach to be able to use it eventually.
    (3) At last, when source codes are available, one may look at them and try to understand precisely, what a particular method actually does.
    I think the better the API documentation the less one may need to endeavor those two last steps. There is actually a limit about it. Without any proper explanation at all, one may never be able to use a particular API, neither after probing it nor after looking at source codes (that is not to say the sources may be simple unavailable at all).
    Concerning how to write the API documentation, that's mostly the question of managing your team. I think, basically, the original source of the ultimate information about everything implemented in the projects are those very programmers (developers) and, probably, some software architects. But those guys normally are not especially eager to write any documentation (especially developers). That your example just demonstrates it. It seems, your programmers just wrote that "Gets the status" for you to make them leave in rest after that. In addition, the programmers normally have such a sort of work and activity that does not match particularly well with the writing literature and doing their main job simultaneously. You should not enforce them to do that!
    To write a good documentation, you will need to engage a technical writer. That's normally a guy with some programming background. However, writing some literature is actually what he does the best. (Sometimes, such people do something else about written word beyond the technical writing.) The job of that guy would be to write the documentation. This will take from him (or her) two basic things:
    (1) The ability to understand the whole software system (that's where his programming background will be needed!);
    (2) To communicate with the programmers who have developed the stuff and to obtain from them all the necessary information they know. That may require some personal (verbal) communication with them, because asking them to write everything again will only result in the same "Gets the status" explanations. However, to be successful in this, the technical writer needs to have some explicit management approval behind him. Otherwise, some of the guys will avoid speaking to him at all (saying they lack the time). So, the management should assign them the necessary priority for such communications.
    Particularly big projects may even need to have the whole team of technical writers.
    Anyway, writing docs is a hard work. But it is extremely important! The good documentation may both increase your sales and eliminate lots of expense on further support of your customers.

Any tutorial or howto?A pointer: be explicit and specific when writing Javadocs. If your method never returns null, make sure you say so. If it can't accept null as a parameter, be sure to say what the consequence will be if it happens (but it's OK to say the result is undefined!). A well-written method Javadoc will make users of any API you make a lot more happy, rather than keeping them guessing or making them inspect your source code.
    It's expected that while the implementation of a method will change, its pre and post-conditions will not. Therefore, having a good method-level Javadoc is critical to both the people counting on your code and the people maintaining your code.

  • How can I burn more than 1 movie to a DVD when there is room on the disc for it. Premiere wants to overwrite once 1 movie is burned to the disc

    How can I burn more than 1 movie onto a DVD? Once 1 movie is burned successfully to the disc, I try to burn another movie and Premiere wants to overwrite the first movie. One movie is 1.2 GB, second is 2.3; so there is room on a 4.7 GB DVD-RW.

    susang
    What you report is what it is.
    Each burn to of Timeline content to DVD-VIDEO format on DVD disc results in the disc containing one OpenDVD Folder and one VIDEO_TS Folder.
    Only one VIDEO_TS Folder can be put on a DVD-VIDEO disc even when Premiere Elements is not involved. I have seen that written about online, and I have
    never found a way to overcome what seems to be basic behavior description of DVD-VIDEO..
    Premiere Elements will allow you to write to a disc with content already on it, but only after you give the OK for erasing the disc content before going ahead
    with the burn to.
    If you have several movies, one possibility is to build a Timeline with the movies, use stop markers, and setup disc menus according so that the viewer
    can selectively watch the movies. More on that later if wanted.
    Any questions or need clarification, please ask.
    Thank you.

    How can I create more than one main window in a page of SAP SCRIPT? If anybody helps me I will be obliged.
    Regards,
    Subhasish

    Hi Ganguly,
    It is possible to have more than one main window in a same page.
    You create a main window and simply you copy and past it in the same page.. it will create first main window name as MAIN and other main windows as MAIN01,MAIN02.... up to MAIN99.
    Contets flow from MAIN , MAIN01, MAIN02.......................MAIN99. contents after filling the current window it flows to next window(by default, you skip as well with some keyword not sure could be NEW-WINDOW)
    you want print the main window data twice? or you want to create two main window in the same page ?
    1. give two copies in the no of copies in the output type screen ( Which pop up is coming after excute the program ).
    2. create two page with the same script form.
    3. you can write the coding inside the program to print twice the same page.
    Hope this information use full to you..

  • How to write this assignment in oom way(long)

    i try to write a new class, but i am not very sure if there is only one new class, I shall write a Movie class or a Ticket class?
    this is my Movie class, if I also want to write a new Ticket class. and still i don't know how to write
    because the Ticket class uses some of the attributes of the Movie class such as start time, Movie.name, as in this situation the relation
    between Ticket and Movie is still aggregation, or become a generalization?
    and how to represent that a Movie can have many Tickets? I shall write a buy-ticket method inside the Ticket class or Movie class.
    (are there any thing not right with this movie class? thanks)

    ============================
    this is the question
    A small ABC cinema has just purchased a computer for its new automated reservations system. You have been asked to program the new system. You are to write a Java application to assign seats on each movie show on the day (capacity: 20 seats for 1 movie).
    Your program should display the following alternatives: ��Please type 1 for couple seat section�� and ��Please type 2 for normal seat section��. If the user types 1, your program should assign one seat in the couple seat section (seats 1 �C 10). If the person types 2, your program should assign a seat in the normal seat (seats 11 �C 20). Your program should also prompt for the movie time and movie name.
    Your program should then display:
    I.     The person��s seat number
    II.     Whether it is a couple seat or normal seat of the cinema
    III.     Time, date, movie name
    Your program should never assign a seat that has already been assigned. When the normal seat section is full, your program should ask the person if it is acceptable to be placed in the couple seat section (and vice versa). If yes, make the appropriate seat assignment. If no, print the message ��Next show is in 3 hours time.��
    (it is just a small test on my OOM learning, I know it is not necessary to make it so complex.)

    Break down your problem into discrete chunks. The more you practice this, the more your initial thoughts will resemble the eventual objects that you will create.
    Let's take address a few of your issues:
    What has the start time? Is it the ticket or the movie? (Hint: Would someone ever print you out a ticket with a different start time than the movie's?)
    If ticket and movie share some attributes, then you can either use inheritance or composition/delegation. In this instance, what makes more sense to you? Is a ticket a movie or vice versa? Or is a ticket simply related to a movie?
    If a given object can contain several instances of another object, you will want to use either an array or a collection, probably List in this instance.
    Why is there no Theater object? A movie may play at multiple theaters. Each theater has a capacity (in terms of total seats and number already booked). This does not really have anything to do with the movie. It is the Theater that you are booking. It may also have which movies are showing at which time.
    Your notion of 'couple' booking seems strange. Why not have a concept like 'consecutive seats required'? That way, your design is more flexible and you can still accomodate couples.That should get you started. Best of luck.

    Hi,
    For 4.7 version if you are using tables, there are two options for protection against line break: 
    - You can protect a line type against page break.
    - You can protect several table lines against page break for output in the main area.
    Protection against page break for line types 
    - Double-click on your table node and choose the Table tab page. 
    - Switch to the detail view by choosing the Details pushbutton. 
    - Set the Protection against page break checkbox in the table for the relevant line type.  Table lines that use this line type are output on one page. 
    Protection against page break for several table lines 
    - Expand the main area of your table node in the navigation tree. 
    - Insert a file node for the table lines to be protected in the main area. 
    - If you have already created table lines in the main area, you can put the lines that you want to protect again page break under the file using Drag&Drop. Otherwise, create the table lines as subnodes of the file. 
    - Choose the Output Options tab page of the file node and set the Page Protection option.   All table lines that are in the file with the Page Protection option set are output on one page. 
    In 4.6, Alternatively in a paragraph format use the Page protection attribute to determine whether or not to display a paragraph completely on one page. Mark it if you want to avoid that a paragraph is split up by a page break. If on the current page (only in the main window) there is not enough space left for the paragraph, the entire paragraph appears on the next page.

    Since you don't know the basic of swing read the tutorial, it is for your own good because it is useless if we provide you with a code you don't even understand and how it works.

  • SRM Smartform - How to write custom logic to get data

    Hi Experts,
    I am new to SRM 7.0 now. I want to know where the code logic can be written to print the custom smart form?
    I have already create custom smarts form ZBBP_PO, and implement the BADI  BBP_OUTPUT_CHANGE_SF to pass the custom form name.
    But i don't know where to write the code for fetching the source data. In ECC, we can write the code in a separate report program. How it does in SRM now? It is said some class and method will print the form. How to find it? and how to add custom logic.?
    Or the logic of fetching source data should be embeded in the smart form? I don't like to write much more codes directly in smart form.
    Thanks!

    Yeah, I know it. but I don't want to write code logic into the Smartforms. in ECC, i always write the code in a separated program which will pass the data to smartform and call function module to print it.
    i just want to know whether i can write the code in somewhere else in SRM, not in smartform.
