Jar tool hangs

Hello,
I cannot extract a jar file's contents.
The jar tool just hangs.
Is my jar file corrupted?
Thanks.

Note: It will also hang if you don't use the command arguments correctly.

Does the Jar Tool work on Windows XP Pro?

Hi, I have a Windows XP Pro machine and I installed jdk1.3. But I can't seem to get the jar tool to work. The directory bin has all java compiler, jar tool, javadoc, and other tools. When I go to the command prompt to try to use the jar tool, it just says "the name is not specificed as an internal or external command, operable program, or batch file. Does anyone know why I can't run the jar tool in MS-DOS?

Hi, yeah autoexec.bat is not used anymore. XP has to set the environment variable in system properties just like Windows 2000. Is something in the classpath variable I have to set to use the jar tool?
Currently my classpath has:
.;c:\jdk1.3\corejava
It's just the current directory and the corejava library from my book. Do I have to add c:\jdk1.3\bin to it? Since javac, jar.exe are located in that folder or am I wrong?
Thanks for your help.

Jar tool and distributing with jre

I want to be able to use the jar tool in software I'm supplying. I don't want my clients to have to install a java sdk just to use this - the jre is as much as I can ask them to install.
Firstly, is it technically possible to supply the jar.exe file to work with just the jre, or are there too many dependancies on sdk components?
Secondly, would I be violating Suns agreement by doing this?
thanks.
Steve

Do you want your clients to actually use the JAR tool themselves, or is your software just calling the JAR tool to run it?
You can do everything that the JAR tool does from a Java program with the classes in the package java.util.jar, so it's quite easy to write a Java program that handles JAR files, without needing jar.exe.
If you want to know if you're violating Sun's license agreements....: you'll have to read those license agreements very carefully.

When trying to export to Excel the tool hangs for 10-15 min. (1.5.1.54.40)

When trying to export a result set after a query the tool hangs for 10-15 minutes. This is regardless of the export fileformat; xls, html etc. It seems like the problem is related to the complexity of the query: Low-cost query=export OK, High-cost query=Export Not OK (even though the number of returned records is low)
Exporting to any fileformat from a tables data-tab is OK, the problem occurs only in combination with a query that has been ran in a Worksheet.
Will be greatful for any hint!
SQL Developer: 1.5.1.54.40
Java: 1.5.0_06

Hi,
If you are using SQL Dev 1.5.1, you can include the column header by using
CTRL + Shift + C (instead of CTRL + C), and paste it to Excel.
I got this info from other forum, sorry I couldn't find which one.
Don't use the Edit - Copy Path menu, even it uses the same shortcut.

Jar tool

From where can I get the Jar Archive Tool without downloading the jdk. Is it possible
to download this independently or not. If so, please provide the URL from where I can
get it.
Thanks
Vinod

Hi Vinod
If you are using Windows for development then winzip can be used to generate jar files. The basic file format of a jar file & a zip file are the same. So, you can zip the file and rename it as a .jar file.
Good Luck!

Text Tool Hangs System

PS CS5 Extended
Mac OS 10.5.latest
Mac Pro
Frequently when I click on the text tool, the spinning beach ball fires up and the entire system hangs. Can not force quit, change applications, nothing. It persists until I shut down with the power switch. What the heck? I know there is an issue when you have an enormous number of fonts installed, but there are only about 250 on the system. That's not large by any means. Other systems in the studio have similar numbers, and have no issues.

If the whole system hangs, you're looking at an OS problem.
It could be caused by corrupt fonts (all it takes is one), or some other system issue (bad files, bad RAM, bad disk, etc.).
Also, Apple has fixed a lot (but not yet all) of their font bugs in MacOS 10.6.5.

Need help with the "jar" tool

could i be having trouble with the CLASSPATH variable if the command line tool "java" works, but "jar" and "javac" don't work?
what do i need to do to make sure these tools work? (besides trying them, as I have sufficiently done that)

What exactly doesn't work? If javac and jar are not found, it could be that you downloaded the runtime environment only, and not the full development kit.
Is javac.exe present in ../yourJavaDirectory/bin/

Power Tools hanging

I downloaded and purchased Power Tools for my BlackBerry Z10 primarily for the Message Filter service.
I configured a number of filters to remove spam which seem to work, however it periodically hangs requiring it to be stopped using the device monitor and restarting.
it gets regular updates from the makers of it is up to date, I was just wondering if anyone else was using this app and they were experiencing the same hangs. If so, if they had any cures for this.
Thanks

Well I got a response very quickly, but it was only to check that I had not installed toolbar wallpaper, which I hadn't.
I noticed that the company ToySoft also have a free product Power Bot which restarts Power Tools if it crashes. I've installed it to see if it cures my problems, so far it seems to be cleaning up email as intended without having to do it manually or restart. I don't know if it's buggy or that the OS causes it to crash periodically (possible since other programs suffer the same hangs or crashes) . As Power Bot is also a headless app I guess this may also crash!
Cheers

Quick select tool hangs and will not work

All of a sudden the quick select tool will not work/hangs up has a mind of its own and wanders/ after installing an upgrade to Nik software Color Efex Pro 4. I put that in the trash as I could not find a way to unistall. Probably still part of it in other areas?
Still did not work. Then I uninstalled PS 5.5 extended. Reinstalled to find it the same as before. All preference etc the same and a blank cach document show up in Bridge, did this before too. It is like I never uninstalled it.
What gives. How do I get a clean copy of PS?

You're welcome.

…do you know how to find the installer on a Mac so I can uninstall some of the Nik software…
There is no such thing as a system wide uninstaller on a Mac. Only a few select applications, like some of Adobe's, install an application-specific Uninstaller, e.g. in the Utilities folder of your root level ./Applications folder. I have no idea if Nik provides such an uninstaller or not.

Create a jar file using the jar tool

Hello all,
can somebody help me with this situation:
I use the following comand
jar cfm Seti.jar manifest.mf SetiSeti.jar is the name of the file I want to create and Seti is the name of the folder where I have the class files, the manifest file and the Seti.java. The manifest file is also out of this folder (exactly the folder were I use the command on the command line).
After creating the jar... I try to run it but it gives an error message: "can't find the main class..."
The content of the manifest file is:
"Manifest-Version: 1.0
Main-Class: Seti
I'd never created a jar file before and have already read all the usefull information here and at sun... I'm very preoccupied with this..
Can you help?
Thanks

How do I do this?
"And you have to name that package as well when you name the main class in the manifest. "
But, as I have told the name of the package is SetiNo, you just told us that the name of your class is Set. You never told us about the name of the package.
Simples question possible: Does your class look something like this:
package Seti;
// maybe there are some import statements here, maybe not
public class Seti {
// maybe there's something here, maybe not
public static void main(String[] args) {
// anything
}If so, then the fully qualified name of your class is "Seti.Seti" and you need to write that into the Main-Class attribute. (*)
If there is no package-Statement, then the fully qualified name of your class is simply "Seti" and the Main-Class attribute is correct, but your classes are in the wrong place.
Edit:
(*) Please note that package names should generally be all-lowercase, so it should be "seti" instead of "Seti". This helps distinguish it from the simple names of classes, so it's easy to see what you are talking about at a glance: "seti" would be the package, "Seti" the class name.

Exporting using JAR tool

Hi,
I've created a Java Project in Eclipse, wich makes use of several external classes in the classpath. When viewing in the applet viewer, it works without trouble.
But now I want to export it and test it from (a simple) html site. It gives a "ClassNotFoundException" by every included class, probably because the classpath is not included when exporting from eclipse.
So I thought, no problem. I'll export it using the jar command in java. This is the command I use (when having the DOS cursor in the folder where the .class files and packages are stored) :
jar cfm my_unsigned.jar manifest.txt applet downloadManager extra uploadManager
<html>
<head><title>Videobank</title></head>
<body>
<applet archive="my_signed.jar" width="300" height="200" code="applet.Uploader.class">
</applet>
</body>
</html>manifest.txt is off couse my manifest, applet downloadManager extra and uploadManager are the folders where the classes are in. "Jar"-ing and signing (after I jarred the files, i sign them, and call the signed file my_signed.jar) doesn't give any troubles, but when I try to run this one, it al ready gives a "ClassNotFoundException" because the Uploader class is not found (the one I'm trying to open using the applet tag.)
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Post the content of the manifest file AND the whole error message please.
Take a look at the Java tutorial jar lesson here and especially the entry point setting here .

Hide classes while using jar tool.

I have a set of API classes which I need to ship using jar.
But even if I use jar utility to archive the classes, one can easily extract and decompile the classes.
Is there any way this can be avoided?
Regards

Not really. You can use an obfuscator to make the code harder to decompile in a way that's easy to read. I'm told some obfuscators can generate class file code that breaks decompilers, but the code could still be disassembled or the next version of decompilers will be able to defeat it.
By the way, this is an issue with any language.

Measuring Tool hangs with Not Responding on a Windows 7

Is anyone else experiencing a problem with the Area Measuring Tool in 11.0.09 where there are consistent and multiple instances where the file will lock up with Not Responding for a full minute or two? Yes, the file is large. It is 100 mb in size; however, I can recreate the same problem on a much smaller pdf; but of course the recovery time is about a second or less and, therefore, less noticeable.
The specs of the workstation is as follows:
* Fully Patched Windows 7
* Ram 8 GB
* Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3340M CPU @ 2.70GHz
* Drive: 320.5 GB free out of 444.3 GB
To correct the issue, I downgraded to 11.0.06 without issues.

Had same issue with Firefox 8.0 in Windows 7 Home Premium-64 bit.
I disabled the VLC Multimedia Plug-in & problem was solved.
Click Tools (in Firefox)>>Add ons>>Plugins. Then find "VLC Multimedia Plug-in version...." and click "Disable".
In earlier versions of Firefox the culprit proved to be the "Realplayer Browser Record Plugin".

TP tool hangs during installation of PI_BASIS Patch 6

Hello everyone,
I'm facing the problem that I can't get the PI_BASIS Patch (SAPKIPYJ76) installed (on MySAP ERP 2005 on SLES 9). It still does not go on in the phase 'IMPORT_PROPER'. In SM50 the process is in status "On Hold", reason "RFC". There is no error in the regarding logs, and the CPU utilization is near to 0% when no other user is logged in. I have searched through Sapnet and this forum, but couldn't get a hint to solve the problem.
I would be very glad when anybody could help me.
Regards,
Christian

Hi Mike (and everyone else),
i could reproduce the error. When the installation hangs in phase DDIC_ACTIVATION, I can cancel the following work process in SM66:
Work process no.                         6
           Type                          BTC

           Status                        stopped
           Reason for waiting            CPIC
           Restart                       Yes
           Terminations                  1
Waiting for semaphore
When i now cancel the BGD process in SM50, too, the installation will continue normally.
Have you any idea what the reason is?
Best regards,
Christian

Elements 12 Editor tools hang with Mac OS 10.10.1

Quick Selection Tool and Spot Healing tool stop functioning after repeated use.

Now that OS X 10.10 Yosemite is available as a free upgrade from the Mac App Store link lapak303 , you’re probably wondering how well your Adobe software and other Mac apps will run on it. Below is a summary of various reports I’ve read on Adobe.com and around the web. I’ll continue to update this article as I find out more. The good news is that upgrading to Yosemite seems to cause fewer compatibility challenges than some earlier OS X upgrades did.
Yosemite and current versions of Adobe software
Adobe FAQs: Adobe has published a tech note, Mac OS X Yosemite (10.10) compatibility FAQs. It contains links to additional information, so be sure to expand each of the FAQ questions there. On that page Adobe says “The latest versions of all Adobe CC products are compatible” and that no updates are required to run Adobe CC products on OS X 10.10 Yosemite.
The Adobe FAQ says “In our testing we have found no other significant issues with running Creative Cloud products with OS X Yosemite,” but with every OS X release things have turned up link lapak303. I add them to this article as I come across them.
Lightroom 5: The Maps module may not work properly in Yosemite. Maps may load slowly, or fail to load completely. According to an Adobe statement at Photoshop.com (Lightroom: Issue with Map module in OS X 10.10 (Yosemite)), the problem is apparently related to an Apple change in Yosemite that interferes with retrieving map data from Google Maps, and Adobe is working with Apple to fix this.
InDesign: InDesign generally seems to run fine on Yosemite, but some users have seen a crash in Open/Save/Export dialog boxes. While speculation in that linked forum discussion suspects a Finder plug-in installed by Dropbox, it could be related to the Default Folder utility (see below). [Update: Dropbox has notified customers that OS X 10.10 has a crashing bug that affects Dropbox integration with Open/Save dialog boxes. They say Apple fixed this bug in the OS X 10.10.1 update.]
After Effects: The After Effects team has also published a blog post about Yosemite compatibility, After Effects good to go with Mac OSX v10.10 (Yosemite). In it they say that they tested After Effects CS6 through After Effects CC, and while those versions mostly run fine, a few minor issues are listed at the end of the article including a long first-time startup for Adobe Media Encoder.
Plug-ins: If you rely on any non-Adobe plug-ins, make sure those plug-ins are compatible with Yosemite. A plug-in that is not compatible with Yosemite may prevent its host Adobe app from starting up.
Default Folder: While this very useful utility is not by Adobe it modifies the Open/Save dialog boxes, and the release notes for version 4.6.11 say “Fixed a problem that could cause Carbon applications to crash on some machines running Yosemite. This included Adobe Creative Cloud and Microsoft Office applications, among others.” If you use Default Folder, run the updater from Default Folder preferences or download the latest version from the St. Clair Software web site.
Upgrading to Yosemite with older Adobe software or from earlier versions of OS X
If you’re upgrading from OS X 10.9 Mavericks or OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion you probably won’t run into problems. But if you’re making a bigger jump from an earlier version of OS X, or from Adobe software earlier than CS6, you may find issues that affect your migration. In many cases you can clear up problems by reinstalling the Adobe software.
Note that CS2 applications, including Photoshop, were written for Macs with PowerPC CPUs link lapak303. OS X 10.10 Yosemite only runs Intel CPU-compatible software, so Yosemite will not allow CS2 to run or install. Adobe CS3–CS5 applications may run but Adobe did not test them extensively on Yosemite.
Photoshop: The Photoshop team has published their own blog post about the OS X upgrade, Photoshop & Mac OSX 10.10 (Yosemite). In it they say that they tested Photoshop CS6 through Photoshop CC and found no issues. However, the comments section of that post contains a lively discussion of issues some users are running into. For example, it has been discovered that the Yosemite installer might corrupt an existing Photoshop CS5 installation; if this happens reinstall Photoshop CS5 and then it should work.
In Photoshop CS6 in OS X 10.8 through 10.10, if you are having problems with keyboard shortcuts or brushespoker online, including lags when painting, and especially with a Wacom tablet connected, you may need to install the “white window workaround” plug-in and try updating your Wacom driver. Adobe is reportedly working with Apple and Wacom on the problem.
Although Photoshop CS3, CS4, and CS5 were not extensively tested on Yosemite by Adobe, I upgraded a test Mac to Yosemite with those versions of Photoshop already installed and have been able to run them. License activation and deactivation work fine. However, I have not had time to try printing or serious editing with them.
Photoshop CS3 is the oldest version that works in OS X Yosemite.
Update from reports in the comments, also reported at the official Photoshop Feedback site: Photoshop CS5 will crash if you try to create a custom paper size in the Print dialog box. A workaround is to create the custom paper size in any other program in Yosemite, and then go back to Photoshop CS5 and choose the custom paper size.
Photoshop Elements 11 or 12 may slow down or become unresponsive in Yosemite. In the tech note Photoshop Elements stops responding after Mac OS update to Yosemite, Adobe says this is a problem related to the trackpad and can be worked around by using a mouse. Apparently this is not a problem in the current version, Photoshop Elements 13.
Illustrator: There are some reports that the Type menu font previews in Illustrator may not appear in Yosemite. The reported workaround is to go into the Accessibility pane of System Preferences and select Reduce Transparency. It wasn’t clear which versions of Illustrator are affected.
An application won’t start: Two possible reasons for pre-CC versions to not launch in Yosemite are Java not being available, and having non-Adobe plug-ins that aren’t compatible with Yosemite. See the topics Java requirement below and Plug-ins above.
Java requirement: When launching some older Adobe software for the first time in OS X, OS X may say that a Java runtime needs to be installed. If a button is provided, click it; if not download the Java installer from the Java for OS X 2014-001 page at Apple Support and install that. Note: Sometimes when you visit that Java for OS X link, you get a blank page. I don’t know why that happens, but that link seems to work again after you first load the apple.com/support page. If that doesn’t work, try this direct download link: Java for OS X 2014-001 download
Some users have reported that the Adobe launch issue is not fixed until you reboot a second time after the Java installation. Also, some report that earlier versions such as CS3 are not working with the latest version of Java (currently Java 8), but it does work if they install Java 6, which is provided by Apple in the link above.
While it’s understandable why some avoid installing Java due to its security issues, OS X won’t let some Adobe applications launch without it. In the case of Photoshop, Adobe says Photoshop doesn’t need Java at all, but OS X puts up the message anyway.
OS X Gatekeeper may prevent older Adobe software from starting: Gatekeeper is an Apple security feature (added in Mountain Lion) that helps protect you from running malicious applications. If you run Adobe software released before Gatekeeper, you should know what to do if Gatekeeper prevents Adobe software from starting. Adobe covers that in this tech note: Error “has not been signed by a recognized distributor” | Launch Adobe applications | Mac OS. The short answer is to bypass the error by right-clicking the application icon, then choose Open from the context menu.
Adobe software released after Gatekeeper was introduced properly conforms to Gatekeeper requirements, so no adjustments are needed for them.
Intel compatibility required: If your Adobe software is earlier than CS5, to run under Yosemite at all it must support Intel processors. After Apple switched to Intel-based Macs site lapak303, Apple started phasing out support for running software based on the older PowerPC processors. Starting with Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, Mac OS X no longer runs PowerPC-based software. You’ll have to check compatibility for each of the Adobe applications you want to run; for example, Photoshop CS3 was the first version of Photoshop that ran on Intel-based Macs. But even if your software older than CS5 runs on Yosemite, it may still have other issues because OS X has changed a lot since then.
Upgrading from Mac OS X 10.6 or earlier: You may also want to read my blog post “Mac OS X 10.7 Lion: Will Adobe apps and other software work?”, so that you can also be up to date on the more dramatic changes that were introduced in Lion, such as the end of OS X support for PowerPC-based software.
General compatibility and other info
To learn about OS X software compatibility of Mac software in general site lapak303, one resource is the Roaring Apps database. It lists OS X software and its reported compatibility with the last few versions of OS X, and it’s crowdsourced from user reports which are said to vary in reliability. As always, for any software that you cannot afford to be without, you should do two things: Check that company’s support website to verify compatibility, and also set up a test installation of Yosemite on a separate volume (like a spare hard drive or even a large enough USB flash drive) to run tests with your own files, peripherals, and workflows.
Wondering what Yosemite is all about? For the most in-depth Yosemite review you’ll probably find anywhere, read John Siracusa’s review at Ars Technica. As with every major release of OS X, Siracusa not only reviews the visible features that Apple promotes, but goes under the surface to explain changes to some of the underlying technologies in OS X and how they affect your Mac experience.
TRIM support for third-party SSDs: If you replaced your Mac’s original internal drive with a solid state drive (SSD), depending on the brand it may be a good idea to enable a feature called TRIM for better long-term performance. However, due to changes Apple made in Yosemite to increase the security of OS X, you can’t enable TRIM in Yosemite without compromising certain aspects of OS X security. For the details, see Trim Enabler and Yosemite by Cindori Software, creator of the Trim Enabler utility.
10-bit video displays: For many years, Photoshop users and other graphics professionals have wanted proper support for 10-bits-per-channel video displays on Macs. (This isn’t about the file format, but the data path to the video monitor.) While 10-bit-capable displays, graphics cards, cables, and software (such as Photoshop) have been ready for some time, Apple has not provided the necessary APIs to complete the chain. As far as I know, there is nothing in Yosemite or even the new Retina iMac to indicate that this has changed.
