J2EE BluePrints: correct location for common Java source files

I have a set of Java source files that are common between multiple J2EE applications.
Within the J2EE package hierarchy, what is the correct location for these files?
Also, is there a typical package name that common Java source files are grouped under?

HI,
There is no standard place. In the blueprints project conventons
http://java.sun.com/blueprints/code/projectconventions.html it has a place called components/ which would contain shared components like EJBs and other components that could be shared across applications. the package naming would be reflected in that, like com.sun.blueprints.application1. and com.sun.blueprints.application2. and com.sun.blueprints.common.*
Generally you could put a directory at the same level as the apps (not inside an app's directory structure) and maybe called common/ or shared/ . This common code could be built separtely and into a binary library or jar that you just include in the other applicatons, in the same way you would include some external library jar that you got somewhere and keep in your workspace and your apps use. The packaging of common code is similiar to the packaging of different applications and shared components.

Access Java Proposals for a java source code programmatically

Hi,
Problem
Programmatically get java proposals for a java source code (not byte code) via eclipse bundle
Description
I am developing one eclipse osgi bundle to correct java source code automatically. I am running osgi bundle inside eclipse itself [Version: Mars Release (4.5.0)]. I am able to get java project object and a class object inside it which I want to correct. Every time I try to collect java code proposals as I put one test file which can be corrected (like duplicate imports), I receive below error:
Java code line
JavaCorrectionProcessor.collectCorrections(context, new IProblemLocation[] { problem }, proposals);

Correction instructions for Netweaver JAVA

Hello.
Can someone tell me how you implement correction instructions for Netweaver JAVA modules, here portal-apps (mss) ?
Or at least put me on the right track ?
I have a note that needs to be implemented which contains JAVA (JSP) source code, which alternatively can be implemented via SP.
Can this be done via NW Developer Studio without NWDI ?
I have not found any info regarding this, any help is appreaciated.
Best Regards Gerhard Andreassen.

Please, tool for automatic java source conversion?

Hi,
Apart from Sun's jilkit, do you know a software a software that could take the
first java source below as input and automatically produce:
1) a converted java source file similar to the second file below;
2) resource files (e.g. mess.properties, mess_es_MX.properties, mess_fr_CA.properties) .
We know that Sun's jilkit does this but we tried it and it is buggy and
Sun no more supports it.
// INPUT FILE
import java.util.*;
public class Test
public static void main(String args[])
System.out.println("Hello world!");
System.out.println("You must Walk from " + args[0] + " to " + args[1] + "Km");
// OUTPUT FILE, we want this done automatically
import java.util.*;
public class Test
public static ResourceBundle resourceBundle = ResourceBundle.getBundle("messages");
public static void main(String args[])
System.out.println(resourceBundle.getString("Hello world!"));
System.out.println(
java.text.MessageFormat.format(
resourceBundle.getString("Walk from {0} to {1}Km"),
new String[]{"" + args[0], "" + args[1]}
}

The javadoc tool has no such capability. I believe some IDEs have
this, but don't know which ones. You could also look at these places:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/javadoc/faq/#docletsfromthirdparties
http://doclet.com
If you find a good tool, you might mention it here for others.

Getting all the members (variables, methods AND method bodies) of a java source file

For a project I want to programmatically get access to the members of java source file (member variables, methods etc) as well as to the source code of those members. My question is what is the best method for this? So far I have found the following methods:
Use AST's provided by the Java Source API and Java Tree API, as discussed in the following posts:
http://today.java.net/pub/a/today/2008/04/10/source-code-analysis-using-java-6-compiler-apis.html
http://weblogs.java.net/blog/timboudreau/archive/2008/02/see_java_code_t.html
http://netbeans.dzone.com/announcements/new-class-visualization-module
This has the disadvantage that the classes actually have to be compilable. When I look at the Netbeans Navigator view however, it provides me with a nicely formatted UI list, regardless of the "compilable" state of the class.
Thus I started looking at how to do this... The answer appears to be through the use of tools such as JavaCC: https://javacc.dev.java.net/
ANTLR: http://www.antlr.org/
which are lexers and parsers of source code. However, since the Navigator panel already does this, couldn't I use part of this code to get me the list of variables and methods in a source file? Does the Navigator API help in this regard?
Another route seems to be through tools such as
BeautyJ: http://beautyj.berlios.de/
which run on top of JavaCC if I am correct, and which has the ability to provide a clean view on your java code (or an XML view). However, BeautyJ does not seem to be too actively developed, and is only j2se1.4 compatible.
I hope someone can shed a light on the best way to go about what I want to achieve. Somebody already doing this?
(I crossposted on the Netbeans forums too, hope this is OK...)

I'm currently developing a LaTeX editor(MDI) and I do the same thing, but I don't know what exactly do you need.

How can I share a *.java source file across multiple projects in NetBeans?

I'm sure this simple and a pretty common operation but how can I share a *.java source file across multiple projects in NetBeans? Right now I keep cut, coping and pasting the same source file between multiple projects to re-use the same code. But I could I make this source file a library file or something like that so that I could access it from any project. I assume this would be a generic operation but I mentioned NetBeans for clarity. Thanks.

If anyone wants to be specific about NetBeans I welcome that too.

Create a class library.
Write your code, compile it to .class files, put those class files in a .jar file and include the jar file in the classpath whenever you want to compile a project against it.

Forte compile error java source files must have a .java suffix

Hello Guru's,
I am using Forte for Java release 2.0 build 1160, and Java SDK 1.3.1.
When I try to compile a project in Forte I get the following error :
"fastjavac: java source files must have a .java suffix C:\Program"
I have looked at the source files and they do hav .java suffix!
If this is not the correct form can someone point me in the right direction. If this is a correct forum then help is very much appreciated.
Cheers...Harki

Hi,
Try to compile like this:

More than one class in single java source file?

Is there a way to define more than one class in single java source file?
I get a duplicate class definition error for each extra class, but I am sure there is a way to handle this in JDeveloper.
Anyone knows how ?

Please post the question in jdeveloper forum at

Parser converting java source file

I want to build a parser, which reads a java source and adds stubs at the start and end of a method, which might be for a public/protected/private method.
This public/protected/private keyowrd , and source file will be passed as command line arguments to the parser.
The generated output java source file should be similar to input source file with stubs.
For example , we have a java source file( A.java) file as specified below
class A{
     public m1(int m1_a, int m1_b){ }
     protected m2(int m2_x, int m2_y){ }
     private m3(int m3_p, int m3_q) { }
parser public A.java;
after parsing it should generate output source file as A.JAVA as specified below
class A{
     public m1(int m1_a, int m1_b)
{ System.out.println(" start of "A:m1"" + time: +"parameters:" +" a="+a ," b="+b)
     System.out.println(" End of "A:m1"" + time: +"parameters:" +" a="+a ," b="+b)
     protected m2(int m2_x, int m2_y){ }
     private m3(int m3_p, int m3_q) { }
Are there any tools , example programs , tips on the above problem .
Anticipating help at the earliest

HI dcminter,
I am not talking about performance tuning,
I need to build a program ( tool) which add System.out.println() statements as specified above for specific methods ( which might be public/private/protected ) which will be passed to the parser along with the java source text file.
This program(tool)should only convert from one java source text file (A.java) to another java source text (A.JAVA) file , by adding the extra System.out.println() statements.
Please help in this regard about any sample or tool or tips in solving.
Awaiting for ur reply

Translate java source file

Dear Friends,
Does anybody know how to translate java sources file and get all the info from it.
Like i want to write a parser and want to extract its details and store in datastructures.
Any similar examples present or any suggessions please inform.
Thanks in advance.

there is a tool called javacc which generates parsing code. You can also google for "javacc grammar repository" to find a java grammer you can pick up and start using

Encoding of java source files

I've sucesfully compiled java source files (*.java files) over a lot of different encodings (ANSI, Unicode, UTF8, etc). My IDE (Eclipse) has Cp1252 as default on WIndows OS.
There is an 'official' encoding for source files ?

Short answer is Unicode -but that's not enough.
From Java Language Specification:
"Except for comments (�3.7), identifiers, and the contents of character and string literals (�3.10.4, �3.10.5), all input elements (�3.5) in a program are formed only from ASCII characters (or Unicode escapes (�3.3) which result in ASCII characters). ASCII (ANSI X3.4) is the American Standard Code for Information Interchange. The first 128 characters of the Unicode character encoding are the ASCII characters."
There's more that applies, I'll not quote it, read chapter 3 of JLS for details.

Do we have to separate java source files and class files after compiled..

Hi,
I really confussed with this:
I have compiled java source files into a package and tried to use but the classes can not be found. Should I separate class and source files after compiled with packages names. I hope you understand what i mean.
Thank you
So Jag

You can choose to separate the source files or not. It sounds like your problem has to do with Classpath and packages.
If the file c:\base\compute\engine\mysourcefile.java starts with the statement "package engine;" then the fully qualified name of the class is is engine.mysourcefile. If the file c:\base\compute\client\mysourcefile.java starts with the statement "package client;" then its fully qualified name is client.mysourcefile.
In your source files, whenever you refer to a class from another class, the compiler needs the fully qualified class name. You can either import the class or use the fully qualified name. In order for the compiler to find the class, the c:\base\compute directory must be in the Classpath (assuming the package definitions from above).
Finally, to launch an application given the above, the command would be "java client.mysourcefile" assuming the main method is in client.mysourcefile.

How to debug byteCode? Can cap file convert to java source file?

Are there tools can debug byteCode?
Are there tools can convert cap file to java source file?
Are there tools can convert jca file to java soure file?

I think it's little bit difficult to give you a correct answer. Frankly speaking, cap file debugging is possible if you have sufficient devices and knowledge to do that. Converting cap file to java source code is also possible only if the cap file has descriptor component in it. Names of variables, functions will not be completely restored because cap file doesn't have the names in it. But I am not sure that there is a publicly opened tool to do that. JCVM chapter 6 may show you the way even it's not the direct one.

Parsing java source files - identifying method signature
