Java reserved key words method

Is there any built in method in java that take a string as an argument and returns a boolean depending on whether the passed strig is a java reserved key word or not. for eg..if string such as "public", "class","int"..etc is passed to such a method then it returns true...I would appreciate if someone could help me out with this one..my email is [email protected]

not as far as i know. but it should not be a great prob to write this method on your own. a quick search brought me to that url:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/java/nutsandbolts/_keywords.html
so, now its really easy to write this method, isnt it?

  • Case conversion for SQL and PL/SQL reserved key words

    Hi!
    Do we have available in Developer automatic conversion of the reserved words to upper cases?
    For example in vim, it is possible to customize such way that after typing a reserved word : 'create' as am example and I type next a space it automatically converts it to upper case: 'CREATE'
    Thanks,
    Radu

    You can do it afterwards with Format (CTRL-F7), but that will rearrange everything in your worksheet.
    Also using code completion, the reserved words are always lower case. This is very disturbing, as I have to fix the case afterwards and lose more time than I initially won using the code completion.
    I recon the case should be converted automatically upon typing, using the settings from the formatter.
    In case development doesn't agree right away, I've added a feature request: http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=42626:39:1041303283166847::NO::P39_ID:10621
    Please go vote to add weight to see it implemented.

  • Doubt in the reserved key words

    hii all
    jut by mistake i found this unusual
    SET SERVEROUTPUT ON;
    DECLARE
    NUMBER VARCHAR2 (100) := 'Everything''s Fine!';--number used as a variable name
    BEGIN
    DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line (NUMBER);
    END;
    anonymous block completed
    Everything's Fine!
    if replace number with integer it will still not give me error can any 1 explain y is this happening

    Hi,
    It's best not to use keywords (such as NUMBER) as variable names (or column names, or any other identifier). Sometimes you can get away with it, but then you might make some minor change and that will start raising an error. (Sometimes the change can be upgrading to a new version.) It's a bad idea, even if you don;t get punished for it right now.

  • Use Enum to Switch on Strings where one string is a java reserved word.

    Hi,
    I'm having problems switching on a string using enums, when one of the strings is a java reserved word. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Or maybe even a suggestion that I should just be stringing together if-else if and doing string compares rather than a switch.
    I've been using the following method to switch on strings.
    public enum MyEnum
    foo, bar, novalue;
    public static MyEnum stringValue(String string)
    try { return valueOf(string); }
    catch (Exception e) { return novalue; }
    Then I can switch like
    switch(MyEnum.stringValue( someString )
    case foo:
    break;
    case bar:
    break;
    default:
    break;
    Now I have run into the problem where one of the strings I need to use is "int", which is a reserved word in java, so I have to modify.
    What is the best way to handle this?
    I could just not add it to the Enum and handle it at the switch like this...
    switch(MyEnum.stringValue( someString )
    case foo:
    break;
    case bar:
    break;
    default:
    if(someString.equals("int") {  ... }
    break;
    OR...
    I could change the Enum, and return intx, by checking if the string is "int". I could check before the valueOf, or during the exception, but I know it's not good practice to use Exceptions in the normal execution of your code... as it's not really an exception.
    public enum MyEnum
    foo, bar, intx, novalue;
    public static MyEnum stringValue(String string)
    if(string.equals("int") { return intx; }
    try { return valueOf(string); }
    catch (Exception e) { return novalue; }
    OR...
    public enum MyEnum
    foo, bar, intx, novalue;
    public static MyEnum stringValue(String string)
    try { return valueOf(string); }
    catch (Exception e) {
    if(string.equals("int") { return intx; }
    else return novalue;
    }

    My advice is still to not name the enum the same as the value of the string you want to test for. That page I linked to shows how to have enums with parameters. Then you could have an enum whose name is (say) JavaInt and whose string value is "int".
    But frankly if I wanted to map Strings to actions I would just use a Map<String, Action> instead of trying to force my code into an antique construction like switch.

  • How to Exclude Java Reserved Words Using StringTokenizer

    Hi, i'm trying to exclude identifiers and java reserved words using StringTokenizer from an input file outputting the remaining words alphabetically ordered with the line, on witch they occur, in front of the word.
    So far my code does all that, except exclude those words. I'm kind on a dead end... Any suggestions?
    The code:
    public class Interpreter{
        /* Uses a Binary Search Tree      */
        public static void main(String args[ ]) {
            String path = null;
            for (int j = 0; j < args.length; j++) {
                try {
                    // Step 1, read the input file
                    path   = args[j];
                    FileReader input = new FileReader(args[j]);
                    BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(input);
                    String line;
                    int count = 1;
                    String word;
                    // Step 2, create an empty Tree
                    BST tree = new BST();
                    while((line = br.readLine())!=null){
                        StringTokenizer str = new StringTokenizer(line);
                        while (str.hasMoreTokens()){
                            word = str.nextToken();
                            tree.insert(word,count);
                        count++;
                    // We're done, print out contents of Tree!
                    tree.print();
                    // Error Handling
                    //check for IO problem with bad file
                } catch (IOException e) {
                    System.out.println("There was a problem with the filename you entered.");
                    //check for no filename entered at command prompt
                } catch (ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException e) {
                    System.out.println("Please include a filename when running this program.");

    use split instead of tokenizer.
    public String[] splitString( String line, String delim )
        String[] tokens = null;
        if( line != null )
            tokens = line.split( delim );
        return tokens;
    }

  • Is it possible to add and view your key words when creating a web site from Lightroom 4?

    Is it possible to add and view your key words when creating a web site from Lightroom 4?

    Hi,
    I had the same problem with
    "java.lang.NullPointerException at com.sap.tc.webdynpro.clientimpl.html.uielib.standard.uradapter.ViewContainerUIElementAdapter.getContent(ViewContainerUIElementAdapter.java:98)"
    when I included ViewUsages dynamically in an action handler (outside wdDoInit()).
    The code below fixed that problem.
    This code creates a new OutboundPlug for the embedding view with the embedded view as target and fires the plug.
    <i>// Create OutboundPlug
    IWDOutboundPlugInfo outboundPlug = embedderViewInfo.createOutboundPlug();
    //Create navigation link
    rootViewUsage.createNavigationTarget(outboundPlug.getName(), interfaceViewUsage, "Default");
    // fire navigation link
    wdThis.wdGetAPI().firePlug(outboundPlug, Collections.EMPTY_MAP);

    I hope I could help you. Probably you don't need the information anymore, but perhaps anybody else has the same problem.

  • Return key word

    i know that when u write a mutator method ie getter that you specify the return type and u can specify the key word return.
    but am still confused about when you you sholud use it, i know that people say when u want to return a value , but that still doesn't explain it enough how do u know if u want to return a value..
    thanks

    i mean if a method had to perform a calculation and

  • About key word return

    Hi;
    Iam very confused about the use of the key word return. I understand its functionality when it returns some value.But what's the case when we use it in the following way:

    Also where will return leads to when we use only return in a method that has void return type.

  • Imovie 08 / key word box is missing

    hi, i am currently working for a professional football club in spain and i am using imovie to edit videos for the coaches. unfortunately on my mac the screen is difficult to see and so i have linked my mac book to a friends computer screen. i have then moved across the key words box onto his screen. the next time i went to use imovie 08 on my macbook without the external screen, the key word box was gone, and when i try to use the screen which i used previously, the key word box still isnt there. how can i get it back? this is becoming a very annoying problem for labelling the movie as i clip the videos for many different things. <such as
    winning possession, losing, shots, corners, throw ins, free kicks, attacks, defence, counter attcks, as well as different actions by each player.>
    therefor opening up the projects list, selecting the project i want, then dragging the clip and then reclosing the projects list to increase the viewer size is time consuming and also a little irritating when you have to do it hundreds of times for 1 match
    please help me find the key word box and save me hours of my life

    If the above methods don't work you can also try trashing your preference files by holding down the ctrl+alt+shift keys immediately after launching Photoshop.
    When asked if you want to delete your Photoshop settings file, say yes. This will reset Photoshop to its factory defaults.

  • Key words not attaching

    I have recently exported my LR catalogue and images to a new computer.  No problems there.  BUT, my key words have not attached themselves to the images.  If I click on an image in a folder no keywords appear in the key word box, but, if I select all the images in the folder then all the key words for that folder appear in the key words box with asterisks beside each key word.  Now I do know that if I then selectively go through the folder I can retype and reattach each key word to its proper photo, BUT, I have over 100,000 images and this method may take half a lifetime.  I'm not going to live that long!!! Help please.

    Randy, when you open the Keyword Manager, are your keywords shown there?
    From the Window menu:
    Window > Keyword Manager  ⌘K
    That will tell you, if your photos have the keywords you assigned. Are all keywords listed, that should be there?
    Are the albums that are missing smart albums, based on keywords?
    Then try to recreate them using the command "File > New Smart Album" and select a rule "Keyword is ...."

  • Local disk reservation keys

    Does anyone know if SC stores reservation keys differently on scsi hba vs. ide hba's??
    -hedo

    SCSI keys are always stored in the same way and in the same place regardless of disk type as far as I know. However, from the title of the post (and I assume it's in relation to your other post) I would say that local disks should not be reserved. This leads me to suspect that you are doing something more unusual.
    Could you explain your configuration? Are you trying to use iSCSI for example?
    Thanks,

  • Java.lang.exception: word is too big

    Hi everybody!
    I have a problem need your help. At present I have a server-client application, server running on Linux enviroment, client running on Window enviroment. After a period of time, there is a exception thrown to console: java.lang.Exception: word is too big, try to use less letter ..... And at that time, no more client can connect to client, however clients which connected to server from before still run as normal. Please help to fix this. Thank you very much

    I can not upload the source code here because it's so big. Before I have never ever met this error. Nearly I have a new server linux machine, and I run my program on this machine, as a result I have had this problem. I say I can catch this exception means I try to trace it by in catch and throw but nothing can be catched. And "word is too big, try to use less letters..." is not mine. I saw it in console. At first, I don't know why client can not connect to server, so I try to find out it in console mode and as you know I find out this exception. If anybody have ever met this error. Please explain it to me and help me to resolve it. Thanks
