Java Novice Question (don't shoot me)

Hello,
I wanted to ask a very novice question, that I can't seem to find an answer to.
I have Eclipse IDE for Java, and I also have Visual Studio (C#). In Visual Studio, you can create a application project, drag and drop a button, then double click the button tod be taken to the code behind the button, that's where you insert your code on what you want the button to do once you click it.
Is there something similiar to that in Java (I know there must be), where you can drag and drop textboxes, buttons, etc., and then double click those items to code?
Any light that ANYONE can shed on this would be highly appreciated!
Thanks!

Okay, thank you for the patience! I will download the "kitchen sink" version, and by that I assume you mean the biggest Netbeans file :)Yeap.
Regarding "building a website"...by that I mean...I want to build a simple website, which incorporates (MySQL which I already installed, installed the ConnectorJ, etc.), a front end (JSP would be nice, which i'm learning), and ofcourse the backend Java coding.Right. Thats not what I got from your first message. I thought your were simply after create a rich client (I.e. Java Swing). Creating a web site is a more advanced topic. I don't know of any GUI editors for it, but then I don't do it (I half expect someone to post IntelliJ IDEA now). But we are just talking HTML and lots of HTML editors exist.
I don't care how easy the website, as long as I can learn (on a basic level). You are going to have to look up tutorials on Java EE.Personally I don't think this is a "new to java" topic.
(Scary, covers all of JEE) [The Java EE 5 Tutorial|http://java.sun.com/javaee/5/docs/tutorial/doc/]
Re: "Right tool for right job"...are you suggesting that I have Eclipse for coding Java, and NetBeans for more GUI apps and developement?The UI for rich clients I do in NetBeans. Everything else I do in Eclipse. But this is just me, and I'm luck enough to be able to dictate tool chains.

Stupid Java Development Question (JDK? XCode?)

I'm brand new to OS X, so forgive my noobness. I'm still getting used to OS X.
I'm doing this little Java tutorial. It says I need to download an install the Java JDK. As I understand it, Java is already built into OS X and I need to use XCode to create and compile Java programs instead of the JDK....where the heck is XCode?
If anyone knows, I could really use some help. Just finished going through the basics of how to make simple programs in Java but I don't know what to do! Lol. I feel so dumb. I kind of want to call Apple, but I think I'd feel to stupid. I think I have to download XCode? That's what I'm doing now. I had to sign up with the ADC. It's a big file though, 915MB, and it's probably going to take around an hour. I hope someone can tell me if I'm doing the right thing or not before then. I'm guessing I just download this and use this to write Java? How then do I compile? The tutorial is telling me to go to the command prompt and do:
Code:
javac filename.java
to compile the class and then,
Code:
java classname
to execute.
I'm guessing that in OS X I'm going to use the terminal to accomplish this?
Any help would be appreciated. I feel really dumb right now. The tutorial only covers how to do this in Windows and Solaris.

Go to http://developer.apple.com/ and sign up for a free Apple Developer Connection account. Once you've logged in, go to Downloads and you'll be able to find the latest versions of Xcode and Java. When it comes to downloading Java, take care to choose the version which matches your hardware and version of OS X.

Yes - they're big files and you need to persevere with the downloads. Once you've got Xcode and Java installed, you can find some newby tutorials on my web page here:
http://www.cems.uwe.ac.uk/~lrlang/javasoundmusic/index.html
You'll find the links to tutorials near the bottom of the page.

I'm guessing that in OS X I'm going to use the
terminal to accomplish this?
Yes. This technique works for any Unix system (including OS X), and I used to teach my students to work this way, but I no longer recommend it. As you guessed, you have to type in these commands into the Utilities/Terminal program. However, to be effective you also need to know a number of other Unix commands like "cd" "ls", "pwd" and a few more which you can find in any introductory book on Unix. You also need to use a text editor (such as TextEdit) to create your Java source files and then save them to the hard disk. While this technique will work, you won't get the syntax highlighting and colouring that is offered by the Xcode editor.
Any help would be appreciated. I feel really dumb
right now. The tutorial only covers how to do this
in Windows and Solaris.
I think that if you follow my tutorials you will very quickly get up and running with Java development. I hope you enjoy working with Java as much as I do. You can always come back here if you need more help.

Flash/java remoting question

Hi,
i'm new to flash remoting and am finding using it with java
quite troublesome. I've also found using the FileReference class
troublesome if you use java. my question is can you somehow tie the
remoting functionality to the FileReference.upload method
fucntionality??
thanks in advance

I will use the program with photo detector to test
the response time of the LCD screenWhy Java?I second that. With a test like that, you want to reduce the experiment down to a single variable, in this case the lcd response time. Using a java program to feed the monitor input introduces a second variable, the response time of the program. The java program's timer may not be exact, the components may not be repainted completely quickly enough, etc. If this is just for your own amusement, maybe that doesn't matter, but if you want your results to have any reliability, you'll need a more accurate and controllable input source.

Simple Java Coding Question

I know this is a simple question, but I can't search for the answer to this because it involves syntax that Google and the like don't seem to search for..
I am trying to figure out some Java code that I have found. I would like to know what:
a[--i] and a[++j] mean.
My first thought was that they meant to look at the position in the array one less (or more) than i (j). But that doesn't seem to be the case. A is an array of Strings, if that matters...
Thanks for you help.

It mean increase/decrease the int i/j by 1. This is done before it gets you the value of a[]. for example if i=5 and you said a[--i] it is really a[4] and i is now equal to 4;

Simple Java EJB question.

When it comes to EJB v3 Remote and Local interfaces,
(With JBoss EJB Container Software in mind, for this question,)
-Does the Remote interface for the EJB include method signatures from the Bean class
-that are to be seen
-that are to be hidden?
-Does the Local interface for the EJB include method signatures from the Bean class
-that are to be seen
-that are to be hidden?
Which is which for
-EJB 2.1 ?
-EJB 3.x ?
- is EJB 3.x reverse compatible in that it allows use of the javax.ejb.* interfaces,
and would accept a EJB 2.1 approach, or does it force one to use Annotations
exclusively?

Simple Java Sound Question...

Can I draw waveforms while capturing data? If yes, how. If no, why.
Thanks. I need the answer ASAP, please help.

Hi nfactorial,
Can I draw waveforms while capturing data?If you would like to do that in Java you would need to know about how to use the Java language in general and especially about the Java Sound and Java2D APIs.
If yes, how.It would be too much to explain to answer such a general question. A general answer is, you need to use the Java Sound API to capture the data for which a waveform should be drawn. The Sound API delivers data as a stream of bytes typically encoded in pulse coded modulation (PCM) format. The data stream has digital samples each representing a level of sound pressure for a certain point in time. The stream of samples in the amplitude/time domain need to be transformed to a spectrum of samples in the amplitude/frequency domain, i.e. a number of PCM samples need to be mapped to the frequencies that should be displayed. This is done with the fast fourier transformation algorithm. Each set of amplitude/frequency values can then be displayed as a waveform by using some line drawing logic. The entire process would need to run constantly, i.e. as bytes are received from the sound data stream transformation and drawing is triggered.

Simple java pgm - question

Hallo,
to the following pgm I had question:
static void printPrimes (int max) (= wavy bracket;
boolean(should be angular brackets) sieve = new booolean (angular br max+1
angular br)
int i,j;
for (i=2; i = max;i++)sieve(angluarbr i angular br)= true
i= 2
while (i= <= max;) (=wavy bracket Out.println (i+ " "); // is prime
for (j=i; j <= j+i) sieve(angular br j angularb.) = false;
while (i <= maxAmpersandAmpersand !sieve (angular br angular br)I++;
) wavy br ) wavy br.
I hope this is still kind of readable.
Q's are:
after the first "for" there is a new i=2, which seems to staty at 2 all the time; the following while does not change this value ( the beginning for i++ does not change this) and so seems to print 2 at all times (??)
then the inner loop seems to count up all the doubbles of the new prime number and thrwoes it out as false at the end of it;
the i values (increased with i++ seemsto refere at all times to the unit numbers and only indirect to the un it values, which are written/ assigned to it (??)
I seem to wonder how the pgm can print out anythings else the 2's.
I would appreciate any help to that.

I hope this is still kind of readable.No, it's not. http://forum.java.sun.com/help.jspa?sec=formatting
Why are you omitting the braces and brackets? And why don't you type "program"? Aren't we worth the additional time it takes?
Q's are:
after the first "for" there is a new i=2, which
seems to staty at 2 all the time; the following
while does not change this value Why should it? You don't tell it to.
( the beginning for
i++ does not change this)It does. It just gets re-set to 2 after the for loop-
and so seems to print 2 at
all times (??)Yeah. What else?
then the inner loop seems to count up all the
doubbles of the new prime number and thrwoes it out
as false at the end of it; That part is definitely unreadable.

Importing Java Class Question

Hello,
Sorry for such a newbie question and such a long post, I did remember how to do this before but now I can't for the life of me remember. Anyhow, I have a simple question about importing custom-made java classes, from another directory in the windows operating system. I have the classpath set, and also I realize that because the two files below are in the same directory theres no need for an import statement as Java will look for the class in the same directory.
But I would like to know how the import statement is suppose to look to import a custom made java class from another directory, (assuming of course that I set the correct classpath)
here's the java class location:
c:\school\csc365\narcus.java
//narcus.java
import java.io.*;
class narcus implements Comparable
String firstName = "firstName";
String lastName = "lastName";
     public narcus()
     firstName = firstName;
     lastName = lastName;
     public narcus(String f)
     firstName = f;
     lastName = lastName;
     public narcus(String f, String l)
     firstName = f;
     lastName = l;
public String getFirst()
return "first..";
     public int compareTo(Object e)
     return 1;
Here's the location of the driver program thats suppose to use the narcus.java class
c:\school\csc365\test.java
//test.java
//import statement? maybe import "c:\\school\\csc365\\*"; ?
import java.io.*;
class test
public static void main(String[] args)
     narcus jim = new narcus();
     System.out.println("omg\n");
     System.out.println(jim.getFirst());
And also, here is my classpath:
PATH=c:\school\csc365\;c:\school\
The classpath also points to the jdk libraries and few other directories but I didn't write that above, as it probably isn't relevant.
I've tried the following import statements.
import "c:\\school\csc365\\narcus.java";
import "narcus.java";
import "c:\\school\\csc365\\*";
But I keep getting an error that says:
test.java:1 <identifier> expected
Any help is appreciated!

Hi Folks,
I am new to this forum, heard that interesting discussions always happens on this forum so immediately registered,don't want to miss any oppurtunity to participate in discussions.
I have pretty much basic question regarding compiling and exceuting files in different packages.I have the following directory structure
C:\Projects\WDPROEast\Development\CommonService\Code\Java from where java files stored in different packages as follows:
com\wdpro\commerce\common\crm\dae\nautilus\adapter directory has java files in com.wdpro.commerce.coomon.crm.dae.nautilus.adapter package.
com\wdpro\commerce\common\dae\exception has java files with package named com.wdpro.commerce.common.dae.exception.
com\wdpro\commerce\common\dls\exception has java files with corresponding package name.
com\wdpro\commerce\common\dto has java files under proper package name.
com\wdpro\commerce\common\exception has java files with appropriate package name.
com\wdpro\commerce\common\util has java files with package name. I am starting at Java Directory,want to compile and run file named a.java in com.wdpro.commerce.coomon.crm.dae.nautilus.adapter package with having all other java files on classpath as follows
so I issued command for compilation as follows C:\Projects\WDPROEast\Development\CommonService\Code\Java>javac com/wdpro/commerce/common/crm/dae/nautilus/ada

Java Programming Question

Hi,Everybody:
I have a question about Java programming. If I want to write a java class code called if.java like below, how should I do to make it pass the java compiler and make it work. I know the words "if" and "for" are reserved words. I just try to figure it out that is it possible??? Do I need to create my own java compiler or recompiler?
public class if
public if() { }
public static for test()
return new for();
public class for
public for() { System.out.println("for class constructor"); }
}

I don't think you can bypass the compiler's rejection of this. There is little point to naming the classes after keywords. Not sure if it's case sensitive though, so maybe "If" or "For"? Otherwise, try "if_" or "for_"

Java List question

Dear all,
My development tool is JDev. 10.1.3.
I've a session bean which the list contains several fields. The list defined like this:
List<cell> List1 = new ArrayList(); cell in a cell.java.
I created List2, List<cell> List2 = new ArrayList(); which the list contents are copied from List1.
On the jspx, List1 is on the left hand side, it rendered out as a table, user can select the row and click the button "Add item to List2". On the right hand side, List2 allows user input information. User can choose List1 item to List2 repeatly.
The question is, e.g. List1 and List2 contain A and B items initially. User inputted information in List2 for A item. And then, choose A item from List1 to List2 again. The new selected item carried the information that user input in List2 before.... I don't know why?
Then, I modified the List2 like this: List<dupcell> List2 = new ArrayList(); and hope the information will not be carried.
However, it doesn't work..
Can anyone help me? Please.
Thanks for any suggeston!
Regards.

Sorry, my English is not good...
my situation like this:
"List1" defined in a session bean, "shoppingCart.java", like this:
List<cell> List1 = new ArrayList();
In the cell.java code, like this:
public class cell {
private String id;
private String type;
private Number quantity;
private String remarks;
public cell() {}
public cell(Number id) {
this.Id = id;
/** defined getter and setter **/
In a JSF page1, user selected the id and id will be stored in the session bean. e.g. user selected id "A" and "B".
Then, user click a button and go to JSF page2.
This button call a function, the List1 copy to List2, like this:
public String copy_to_new(){
List2.addAll(Utils.getShoppingCart().getList1());
return "page2"; //go to JSF page2
Two lists were created.
List1 - user select item, move the item to List2.
List2 - user input the information: type, quantity and remarks. e.g. user inputted information for id "A": type = "small", quantity = 1, remarks = "urgent".
Now, user click id "A" from List1 to List2.
On List2, it shows:
Id Type Quantity Remarks
A small 1 urgent
B
A small 1 urgent <-- new selected row (I don't want this)
Question: How can I create a new row that it does not carry the previous information, like this:
Id Type Quantity Remarks
A small 1 urgent
B
A <-- new selected row
Thank you very much for any helps!!
Regards.
