Java.text.MessageFormat -- How to pre-pend '0'

Hi,
I need to create a 10 digit number and I'm using MessageFormat.
My numbers range from
008-4146075
to
008-4146107.
So essentially, only the last 3 digits need to be changed.
HOWEVER, I'm having trouble trying to figure out how to pre-pend the '0' when less than 100.
I have a loop that goes through these statements:
           String result;
           Object[] values = new Object[1];
           values[0] = new Long(075); //"075" is my initial number
           result = MessageFormat.format("{0,date,'008-4146'###}", values);
           System.out.println(result);// "008-4146*75*" is printed out
when I actually want "008-4146*075*"
Thanks in advance. Any help would be appreciated!

OK--- I'm dumb.
Sorry!
I just need to put everthing else besides the initial "008-".
So it would be '008-'#######....
But thanks DrLaszloJamf!But what if instead of 4146075 for your number, you have 0146075? Then you'd have the same problem.
Just try 0 instead of #, will ya?

Java.util.Formatter vs. java.text.MessageFormat

Hi,
Which formatter is faster java.text.MessageFormat or java.util.Formatter?
At the moment I format all my strings with java.text.MessageFormat, however I want to speed-up the formatting of the strings that I log, so I though of using java.util.Formatter instead.
Is there a benchmark that compares between those formatters?

Why do you day those 2 doesn't do the same thing? They format messages using parameters the user passes.A 747 and a dump truck both do the same thing: move people and cargo from one place to another. But people have been known to express strong preferences for one or the other, depending on their circumstances. They usually have pretty good reasons for their choices.
No I didn't used a profiler. It just an hunch.Never trust hunches, especially when it comes to performance questions. You'll end up making a fool of yourself every time.

Please help with java.text.MessageFormat...

Hi all
I'm reasonably new to java and have been struggling with this one for a while. I wonder if anyone can help?
The following code...
Object[] testArgs = {new Long(1273), "MyDisk"};
MessageFormat form = new MessageFormat(
"The disk \"{1}\" contains {0} file(s).");
System.out.println(form.format(testArgs));
...gives the following output...
The disk "MyDisk" contains 1,273 file(s).
I simply want to get rid of the comma, so that the output becomes...
The disk "MyDisk" contains 1273 file(s).
Any ideas? Many thanks for reading my thread and for any help you may be able to offer!
Kind Regards
Jon

contains {0,number,#} file(s).

Printing in java - text positioning

Hi there, I need some pointers in the right direction please.
I need to print a page out to fill in a pre-printed sheet. The data to go onto the sheet is purely numbers, but the pre-printed sheet is not in a table format (the boxes where the data goes are in seemingly random positions.)
I am currently completing the task by laying out a panel in the way I want it and using the printComponent method, but this obviously isnt the best way to do it as all I need to print out is text.
How is the best way to go about this? Is it possible to define the position of each line of text?
Cheers. :)

Well, getting the text from your JTextField should be rather easy: myJTextField.getText().
To print it, you'll have to create an Graphics object and draw the text using the drawString method on a Graphics objects: myGraphics.drawString(myText, x, y). You will need to set the right font on the graphics before that (using the setFont() method).
You can then use this Graphics object to print.
See the java tutorial on printing for more info about printing: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/2d/printing/overview.html

URGENT: Entering Chinese into Java Text Area

Hi,
This might be an FAQ question but some of the info I've gotten over the web so far is conflicting.
How do I allow a user to enter Chinese text into a Java Text Area (using an english keyboard)?
All my users have:
English Windows 2000 with a multilanguage pack. I cannot change this.
But, I can specify any downloads (IMEs, etc.) and I can choose whichever version of Java I desire.
Please let me know what is the simplist way to enable Chinese data entry in this environment. Let me know if I need to create my own input type :( or I can use MS Global IME) or if there are other third party chinese input types (even if they are not free).
Thank you and have a nice day.
Best Regards,
Carlos

Thanks for the note. The news was depressing - but things are much clearer now :) I would like one more clarification, though -
On the MS site, I quote
Any user who needs to input East Asian text across the language platforms of Windows Me, Windows 98, Windows 95, or Windows NT 4.0 could use Global IME.
"Note: On Windows 2000, the Global IMEs work in any application since that OS has full-featured East Asian input support built in. On Windows Millennium, Windows 98, Windows 95, and Windows NT 4.0, the Global IMEs work only in supporting applications."
When they say they say "full-featured East Asian input support built-in" does that exclude Java? If it would work, would it work with Swing or only AWT?
Any thoughts? Thanks again for your not, I would greatly appreciate it if you could help me with this clarification.
Best Regards,
Carlos

Java text parsing

Hi all!
I'm a Java beginner and how I have to parse a text file of the form:
attribute1 1|2|443|554|56
attribute2 someString
attribute3 someOtherString
...and so on...
I have to change the value of one of the attributes.
Could you tell me how to overwrite this attribute.
Thanx,
Pesho

There are some very powerful String tools, which you might want to look at. The first is the Scanner Class http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/Scanner.html , which helps you to tokenize your Strings. It also helps you with regular expressions, which you should look up in the Java tutorial and here: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/regex/package-frame.html
A simpler version which is easier to handle is the StringTokenizer Class:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/StringTokenizer.html
About changing the file: you just can't change a few bits of your file. You have to read the whole file into some data structure, change the data structure and save it back to disk.

Java.text.SimpleDateFormat with zones

Hi,
I have a log file which has a date format as below:
20091224060656.000000+060
Wondering if java.text.SimpleDateFormat would be able to parse it properly.I was seeing this API and it didnot have any exact syntax for parsing this kind of date format.
Please let me know.

Hi,
Thank you for the response.The problem is this is one our client's log file which we are trying to parse using the java.text.SimpleDateFormat from our own java application.
Hence not sure about +060. I guess the part after the . represent the zone , please correct me.But +060 not sure what this means and I dont think java.text.SimpleDateFormat has a way to parse this.
Please let me know your comments.Uhm, you need to "tell" SimpleDateFormat what the format is, if you don't know how to interpret the format, how are you going to be able to configure SimpleDateFormat. Contact your "client" and make sure you understand the format, then look at the API docs for SimpleDateFormat and hammer out a pattern string for that format. (But I would assume that the "part after the dot" is second fragments (smaller than milliseconds but larger than nanoseconds, about half-way between, what the name for that is, I'm not sure), and that the part with the "plus" is the timezone, probably +060 is the same as +0600.) IOW, you will probably have to "preprocess" the string removing the last three digits before the "plus" and adding a 0 to the end, but that is only a guess.

Java.text

Where on the web can I find a short tutorial as to how to use java.text package?

The best place to start would be looking at the Javadoc.
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/java/text/package-summary.html
After you click on a class, most of them have examples right at the beginning of the documentation.
If that doesn't help search the forum for a specific class. I haven't seen anywhere that does examples of just the java.text package.
Hope this helps!

Best Java Text Editor

Which is the best java text editor? I am using Forte for Java but was told JBuilder is better.
Also does anyone know how to change the view in the Forte program. Ive got seperate windows everywhere.

I am not using Forte, so I can't answer your second question. As for the first, search the forum, please. That has been asked and answered frequently. The are quite a few tools out there that people like to use and every single one has it's advantages and drawbacks. I would never say that one tool is the best there is, but that I like it the most. An editor that one person finds useful and is comfortable with, is often disliked by someone else... I myself do not like JBuilder, for example. I'd say, try out a few and decide whatyou like the most.

How to pre-configure wireless locations

Does anyone know how to pre-configure wireless locations that can them be pushed to several computers via ARD?
We are taking admin rights away from most users, which means they cannot create a wireless location. I need to find a way to have a file or files that are preconfigured with the locations we need (on lab and off site) so they can connect to our private wireless network on lab, and then just plain old dhcp off site. I've tried modifying the preferences.plist and networkinterfaces.plist, but it puts MY computer information throughout, and that is not acceptable.
I UNIX command or script would be better.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi.
2 things -
1. use T3StartupDef interface for startup classes
(http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs61/javadocs/weblogic/common/T3StartupDef.html).
2. check out the example code in
examples\i18n\logging\startup\UserSMessagesStartupImpl.java. This is a
startup class that uses T3StartupDef and binds to the JNDI tree.
Hope this helps,
Michael

Suppose I need to lookup in message bean an admin email

so in JNDI it is bound to say [email protected]
Of course I want to configure it somehow so it is dynamic enough
in some config file
One way to do it is some tech support servlet that will rebind it
and init binding thru startup class reading it from customconfig.xml.
1. Is there a better way to do it???
config.xml it seems does not allow FULL access to JNDI tree and sois console
2. Is there a JNDI console for WL?
3. Is there an example of startup class?

How to pre-load Coherence Caches used within an OEP Application

Hi OEP/Coherence guys,
I'm currently developing an OEP application that was consuming database inputs in CQL queries.
I've replaced database direct access by Coherence caches access. My Coherence Local caches use a cache loader to fetch rows (by key) when there is a cache miss. This is working well, and the caches get filled in during the execution of my OEP application.
The problem is that if CQL queries are made on some attributes (not the key) of not-yet-cached data, the load method of my cache loader is not invoked and there is no result to my CQL query.
I'm wondering how to pre-load my data in Coherence Caches, from the database, when the OEP application starts to avoid such kind of problems...
Thx for any advice.
Renato

Hi.
Could you please describe the way to "set-up a cache-loader to load data into your cache when the OEP application starts" ?
I have a cache-loader configured with my cache. My cache-loader implements the "com.tangosol.net.cache.CacheLoader" interface.
This interface only defines 2 methods:
load(java.lang.Object oKey) ==> Return the value associated with the specified key, or null if the key does not have an associated value in the underlying store.
loadAll(java.util.Collection colKeys) ==> Return the values associated with each the specified keys in the passed collection.
None of these methods allows me to pre-load my data (and BTW it looks like "loadAll" is never called by OEP)
Thx
