I urgently need help in finishing my java inventory project for school. Can anyone help me usin files and streams to get the program to save data and help me get the menu to work pls THANKS> Heres the source code below:
// TextForm.java
// A simple label/field form panel
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class TextForm extends JPanel {
private JTextField[] fields;
// Create a form with the specified labels, tooltips, and sizes.
public TextForm(String[] labels,
int[] widths, String[] tips) {
super(new BorderLayout());

add(labelPanel, BorderLayout.WEST);
add(fieldPanel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
fields = new JTextField[labels.length];
for (int i=0; i < labels.length; i+=1) {
fields[i] = new JTextField();
if (i < tips.length) fields.setToolTipText(tips[i]);
if (i < widths.length) fields[i].setColumns(widths[i]);
JLabel lab = new JLabel(labels[i], JLabel.RIGHT);
lab.setLabelFor(fields[i]);
labelPanel.add(lab);

  • Help need on System setup for java programming

    HELP BADLY NEEDED!
    I recently installed java (jdk version8 152mb) on my HP630 win7 because i want to learn java. But when practising, after using notepad to code samples like "Hello Word" and saving it with .java format, it still cannot run on my pc.
    Pls i think i need a complete and comprehensible guide on how to install and prepare my win7 laptop for java programming.
    Thanks in anticipation

    Hello,
       one suggestion is to ensure your system's environment PATH has the Java installation path included, so that it knows where to look to run Java.
     (See attached pix).
    1st) Find out where Java was installed to on your system: For example, on my Win7 PC, Java was installed to 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Java' directory.
          However, my path to the actual binaries is 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin'; this is the value I added to my system PATH.
    2nd) Check what your System's PATH has: You can do this by looking at the Environment Variables under System Properties:
       1) Search for Control Panel, then go to System & Security, then to System, then to 'Advanced System settings'.
       2) Click on 'Environment Variables...'
       3) Under the 'System variables' pane, use the scroll bar to find 'Path', and click on 'Edit...'.
       4) Here is where you add your Java path (as noted above): Note that I appended my java path to the existing Path text, taking care to separate the previous path with a semi-colon (';').
         For example, this was my existing 'Path': "C:\Program Files\CollabNet\"...and now it looks like this 'C:\Program Files\CollabNet\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin'.
       5) Click OK, OK, OK out of all those dialogs.
       Now..restart your JVM or attempt to run your Java program!.
     Good luck.

  • Need help with Inventory System

    I am trying to throw together a semi-elegant inventory
    viewing system for a web site I am creating. The current website is
    going to be scrapped and remade relatively soon, so I really just
    want a quick and dirty solution. As such, I have been using some
    spry with xml datasets. I happened upon an article
    here
    that clued me in to a particularly interesting method of presenting
    the data, so I am attempting a similar design, along with code from
    spry samples (lots of cut-n-paste unfortunately, which is probably
    a major reason why I have so many problems). Anyway, here is the
    relevant info:
    Right now I have folders for each category, with an xml file
    for each size category. I arranged it this way, because I was
    originally going to use straight html files for each size category
    and in each folder, obviously not very practical. I played around
    with the idea of putting all sizes into one file and letting some
    spry+xml magic sort it out, but since I can't even get this to work
    I haven't really tried it. If you experts would clue me in as to
    which version might be more efficient or if you have any other
    ideas please feel free to put me in my place.
    Before I go any further, my main problem is the third line of
    the first piece of code, I'm having trouble getting the dsStock xml
    to load properly. The original example I cited above was using
    Coldfusion, but I guesstimated that it wouldn't be a problem to
    just load some straight xml files. Before I go any further I would
    at least like to know if what I am attempting is possible.
    Code to load in data for menus, category selection, and
    actual inventory etc........
    quote:
    var dsCategories = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("diamond.xml",
    "diamonds/diamond");
    var dsSize = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("size.xml",
    "sizes/size");
    var dsStock = new
    Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("{dsCategories::@id}/{dsSize::name}.xml",
    "inventory/product");
    diamond.xml

    Here is the actual code in the site (this seems to work out
    alright). I haven't rewritten the actual inventory portion yet,
    since I can't really get it to load properly. If I can get the xml
    I know that I can get it on the page.
    quote:
    <ul spry:region="dsCategories"
    spry:repeatchildren="dsCategories">
    <li class="product" spry:selectgroup="1"
    spry:select="selected" spry:hover="hover"
    spry:setrow="dsCategories">{dsCategories::name}</li>
    </ul>
    <ul spry:region="dsSize" spry:repeatchildren="dsSize">
    <li class="product" spry:selectgroupd="2"
    spry:select="selected" spry:hover="hover"
    spry:setrow="dsSize">{dsSize::name}</li>
    </ul>
    Sorry for the long post, but thanks for taking the time to
    give it a read and see if you can help me out. I will be eternally
    grateful.

    Hi StevenMig,
    I'm not seeing anything obvious. Have you tried loading your
    XML files directly to see if there are errors in the XML? Is your
    server serving up XML files with a Content-Type of text/xml or
    application/xml?
    If you post a sample page, perhaps me or someone else on the
    forum can take a look?

  • Java help needed(PLEASE)

    I have a Question for all you gifted people:
    I am designing a sort of quiz which takes questions and three possible answers from a database(which also holds the real answer).It prints these on the dos screen and I then have a System.in statement which allows the user to enter his or her answer (eg A,B,C or 1,2,3). I need a way of adding up the score at the end!!I was thinking of storing there answers in an array and compairing there answer to my correct answer in the database and if it is the same add 1 and if it not the same add 0???
    How would i write the System.in answers into an array and add them up???
    These are my thoughts on how to do this i would love to hear yours!! And also a help with writing the code for the above system of scoreing would be GREATLY appriciated!!
    thanks everyone,
    james.

    As mathuoa pointed out, since you already display the 3 possible answers to the user, get them into an array and display them on the screen. Then, as the user enters an answer, compare them with the three answers and if it is correct, update the score variable as such. If you want the history of answers that the user has given, then u will have to use a Vector/List/some such collection object to hold the user's answers.
    java.util.Vector answers = new java.util.Vector();
    answers.add(usersAnswer1);
    answers.add(usersAnswer2);
    Then, to get the entries,
    for(Enumeration e = answers.elements(); e.hasMoreElements();)
    System.out.println(e.nextElement());
    //Do something with the answer.
    This is one possible way of getting the answers from the user!

  • Help needed with system recovery Satellite L300-149

    Hi
    We have a Satellite L300-149.
    Was running really slowly so wanted to reset it to factory settings.
    Did the 'press F12 when starting, put disk in' etc etc BUT have a horrible feeling that I put a disk in that actually belonged to a different Toshiba we used to use a U300.
    The 'give away' was that the user manual for the U300 is now on the desktop on the Satellite :-/
    I hoped that this wouldn't be a major problem BUT the F8 key has now disappeared making it impossible to connect to the internet.
    I looked online and read that the L300 sometimes doesn't come with a disk as the info is kept on a separate part of the hard drive so hoped I could reset it back to factory settings again but when I click F2 on start up and go to the option to restore it, noting happens.
    Can anyone please help??????

    Hi
    Forget the HDD recovery now
    You have recovered the system using another disk and this has deleted the HDD recovery image files. So this option is NOT possible!
    You are right the L300 and all other notebooks are not delivered with Recovery disks.
    The recovery disk has to be created using the preinstalled software called Recovery Disk Creator. But this is also NOT possible because you removed the preinstalled system and the files which are needed for such recovery disk are not available anymore!
    But if everything work properly except of the WLan FN + F8 key, then I would recommend to install only the Wlan driver. I think the key does not work because the right WLan driver is not installed.
    I think the Satellite L300-149 supports the Wlan Realtek RTL8187B chip.
    So install the right Wlan driver which you can find here:

    Interesting! Even though Runtime.exec() works with a single String, ProcessBuilder fails with this approach! You have to split the argument string. This certainly looks like a bug! Some while ago I looked at the source for Runtime.exec() to look at the differences between Runtime.exec() and ProcessBuilder and found that behind the scenes Runtime.exec() uses ProcessBuilder.
    More research is required.

  • New to Java:   Help Needed

    Hi,
    I am writing a utility to monitor all the objects created by my application. I want to be able to get not only values of class variables(for which the reflection package seems pretty useful), but also instance variables.
    For example.
    public class myClass {
    //Constructor
    public myClass(int i) {
    // another class instantiates this one
    myClass mc = new myClass(10);
    myClass mc1 = new myClass(20);
    I need to keep track of the the handles mc and mc1 and the
    other initializations they do based on the value passed at runtime.
    Is there a way to to this. Or even better, is there someplace in Java which stores all the objects instantiated and their handles?
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thnx
    cvsan

    How do I access private and proteced variables. By default only the public variables are accessible via the reflect class as in the example below.
    Class c = rc.getClass();
    String s = c.getName();
    System.out.println(s);
    try { abcField = c.getField("abc");
    where abc is a public instance variable. If abc is a private instance variable, the above example fails.
    Is there any way to override the data hiding feature of Java?
    Thanks
    cvsan

  • *Basic* Java help needed...

    I feel like a complete novice for posting this kinda stuff, but i figured somebody would take 5 minutes and help me out. My final in my programming class depends on 2 programs, one of which is giving me some actual trouble.
    What I have to do is create a java applet that allows a user to input their weight, select a planet, and then have their weight converted to what their weight would be on the selected planet. However, if the ouput is higher than 60 pounds, I need a picture of the michelin man to appear and the theme from star wars to play. If it is below 60, A multicolored asterisk should be displayed with applause.
    I will post what code I have already made. Please note: ITS VERY VERY BASIC. I may have overcomplicated some things, and there is always more than one way to do something (in my experience). Also, I kinda just converted a temperature conversion applet, so there may be some extra stuff I don't need.
    Please help.

    I am guessing that you are wondering where to go from here. If so http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/1.5.0/demos/applets/Animator/Animator.java may prove helpful.
    Also I would recommend using arrays of planet names and weight multipliers. It could make your code a lot less cumbersome.

  • Help needed Inventory 0IC_C03

    Hi guys,
    I am presently working on an inventory project.
    I have activated the busines content for the whole process flow i.e the cube 0IC_C03 and its respective datasources and infosources.
    Now I want to understand the logic thst is being used in the start and update routines.Is there any doc that gives the logic for these routines.
    For example a KF 0ISSVALSCRP which exists in the cube 0IC_C03 is mapped from its infosource using the rulename Issue Qty: Scrap - Purch.Val. from Matl Doc. on Posting Date.
    The routine used is 'Perform routine_0030'.
    which is
    IF ( COMM_STRUCTURE-movetype EQ '551'   "GI scrapping
      OR   COMM_STRUCTURE-movetype EQ '552'   "GI scrapping
      OR   COMM_STRUCTURE-movetype EQ '553'   "GI scrapping QI

  • Set Pasword in any folder through java (HELP NEEDED)

    hi i want know it is possibel in java i m set password in any folder of my windows if it is so reply me soon .
    i m waiting for reply

    In java only - no.
    If there is a command line tool that does it then you can use Runtime.exec() with an OS specific command. Presumably you are talking about windows so you might look in the appropriate resource kit. That is probably the most likely location for a command. But it could be somewhere else too.
    If you can't find a command then you would have to use JNI.

  • Beginning Java help needed.

    I'm trying to write a program that would display the elapsed time after double clicking in seconds. For instance, first click will start the timer, but it will not display the elapse time after the second click. Here is my code.
    public class ClickTimer extends WindowController {
    private double startingTime;
    private Text message;
    public ClickTimer () {startController (700,500);
    public void begin() {
    message = new Text( "Double click twice to display time elapse." ,50, 50
    ,canvas );
    public void onMousePress(Location point) {
    startingTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
    if (point.getclickCount() == 2) {float elapsedTimeSec = elapsedTimeMillis/1000F;
    }}

    For instance, first click will start the timer, but it will not display the elapse time after the second click.Since there's no code there that would display elapsed time, that isn't surprising.
    Your onMousePress method always sets the startTime value (no matter what click it is), which is probably not what you want.
    Text? Location? WindowController? What library are you using? You should say up front.
