JDBC Driver (HELP NEEDED URGENTLY)

Hi, I'm a student who has a project to be done on java.
I would like to use access or some other db tt is plafform independence.
However, I do not know of such a dbms system. Can someone help me by telling me with access can be used on other plafform or there is a better dbms out there?
Also , is there any way the client can just do installation without using jdbc to odbc bridge as the installion of the application should be easy and do not require the client to do install addition stuff or trouble themselve over the installtion of the software. Your help is greatly needed Thank you.

I assume you meant "db that is platform independent."
Try http://postgresql.org or http://mysql.org. Both
are free, open source and well supported. And nearly
anything is 'better' than Access. Not sure about the
second part of your query.Message:
Thanks for the tip man. The second problem i have is that i m trying to create a program that run on stand alone PC . It must be able to access a database. However, using the odbc bridge means that it is not plafform indepence while is one of the aim i have for the program. Is it possible to find a driver that dont need to the odbc and can run on standalone PC without a server between there?
thanks you for all your help!!!

  • "com.mysql.jdbc.PacketTooBigException": Help needed urgently

    hi,
    I am using mm.mysql j/connector ver 3.0.6 and MYSQL server version 4.0.
    Max_allowed packet= 8MB at the server side
    I am getting PacketTooBigException when i am trying to update a particular column.
    What should i do.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!

    the driver uses a 64 k max packet size by default. it is supposed to change this as neccessary upon connection but perhaps that is failing?
    below is the 3.0.7 connection code that i have slightly modified for you so that it prints out the connection properties after they have been initialized so that you can see what they are.
    try it out and i hope you find this helpful.

  • Some J2ME midlets doubts!! help needed urgently!!!

    Hi,
    I am currently working in a company where it does wireless technology like WAP and I am assigned a task of creating a screensaver midlet. I have some doubts on the midlets.
    1) How do i use a midlet suites? From what I heard from my colleagues & friends, a servlet is needed for midlets to interact with one another. is it true?
    2) How do I get the startin midlet to take note the phone is idling so that the screen saver midlet can be called?
    Help needed urgently... if there is any source codes for me to refer to would be better... Thanks...
    Leonard

    indicates that MIDlet suites are isolated (on purpose) from each other, so you can't write over another one's address space.
    Also, I believe (at least on cell phones) that you have to specifically enter the Java Apps mode; unless you do the app won't execute. If you are in Java apps mode and a call comes in, the cell's OS puts the Java app currently executing on "Pause" mode and switches back to phone mode.
    Not sure if you will be able to have a Java app do that automatically.
    BTW why do you need a screensaver on an LCD display? Is it really intended to show an advertisement?
    Download and real all the docs you can from Sun, once you get over the generic Java deficiencies MIDlet's aren't that hard.

  • Help needed urgently on a problem..plzzz

    hi..this is a linear congruential generator. I have to implement it and i need the execution time for the program.
    for your understanding i'm providing an example below.
    Xn=(( a* xn-1 )+b) mod m
    If X0=7 ; a = 7 ; b =7 ; m=10
    Then
    X0 = 7
    X1 =((7 * 7) + 7))mod 10 = 6
    X2 = ((6*7)+7))mod 10 = 9
    X3 = ((9*7)+7) mod 10 = 0
    X4 = ((0*7)+7) mod 10 = 7
    Now since the cycle is being repeated i.e 7 appears again�so the period is 4 coz there are 4 diff nos. i.e 7,6,9,0�..
    help required urgently....your help will be appreciated...thankyou..

    Hi,
    I wrote the code so that it catches any cycle (not only the "big" one).
    Otherwise it will enter infinite loop...
    The time complexity is O(N*logN): it can do at most N iterations (here N is your 'm'), and in each iteration there can be O(log N) comparisons (since I maintain TreeSet).
    Interesting issue: is it possible to supply such (x0, a, b, m) tuple such that all possible values from 0 to m-1 will be output? I think no :)
    Here is the program:
    package recurr;
    import java.util.TreeSet;
    import java.util.Comparator;
    public class Recurrences {
         private static long x0, a, b, m;
         private static TreeSet theSet;
         public static void main(String[] args)
              long l0, l1, l2, l3;
              try {
                   x0 = Long.parseLong(args[0]);
                   a = Long.parseLong(args[1]);
                   b = Long.parseLong(args[2]);
                   m = Long.parseLong(args[3]);
              } catch(NumberFormatException nfe) {
                   nfe.printStackTrace();
              System.out.println("X[0]: " + x0 + "\n");
              long curr = x0;
              boolean cut = false;
              int i;
              // initialize the set
              theSet = new TreeSet(new LongComparator());
              // we can get at most m distinct values (from 0 to m-1) through recurrences
              for(i=1; i <= m; ++i) {
                   // iterate until we find duplicate
                   theSet.add(new Long(curr));
                   curr = recurrence(curr);
                   if(theSet.contains(new Long(curr))) {
                        cut = true;
                        break;
                   System.out.println("X[" + i + "]: " + curr + "\n");
              if(cut) {
                   System.out.println("Cycle found: the next will come " + curr + "\n");
              } else {
                   System.out.println("No cycle found!");
              System.out.println("----------------------------------");

  • Help needed Urgently- Rebate based on collected amount

    Dear all,
    I come across scenario while discussiion with client that they require rebate with collection. Details of the requirement are given below:
    1. SAP rebates run on billed values & set the accrual in rebate agreement on the rate what we have specified in the rebate agreement. Requirement is that, If i have billed on 1000$ & my accrual value is 100$ with the rate of 10%. If i collected 800$ instead of 1000$, then i need to pay the accrual on the basis of 800$ not on the basis of 1000$. It means i have to adjust accrual amount on the basis of 800$. Conclusion is that i have to pay not 100$ accrual instead less then 100$ on the basis of 800$ which i collected.
    2. In month 1 have billed on 5000$, my accrual amount is 500$ with rate of 10%. In the 2nd month i have to bill 1000$ and i have given an discount of 500$, it means my billed value is 500$ and my accrual amount is 50$@10%. In month 3 again i billed 500$ and my accrual amount is 50$@10%.
    Requirement is that, when i am going to pay the accrual to client, i should pay correct accrual for which he is entitled for. Means i should pay 100$ accrual not 600$ because i have already given an discount of 500$. Discount which i have given already of 500$ should need to be offest with the first month accrual of 500$. So remaning accrual is 100$.
    Great if somebody can help me out for the solutioning of the above requirements.

    Thanks Ivano,
    Somebody has started the conversation.
    Let me put my questions again.
    This requirement is nothing to do with Payment procedure in the agreement type.
    1. In any month if i billed 1000$, so my account receivable would be 1000$. My rebate for that month is 100$ at the rate of 10%. During customer receipt if i collected against my invoice 900$ instead of 1000$, my accrual needs to be corrected 90$ instead of 100$.
    I know this can not be fullfilled by standard SAP, by any thoughts on this welcomed.
    2. I know Rebate can be settled partially or full settlement by payment method( by cheque, bank transfer, or by credit memo) we have configure in rebate agreement type. But here requirement is totally different.
    Here, i need to pay the Rebate as a Discount instead of by cheque or by credit memo. While doing the partial or full settlement system will take into account collected accrual up to that day & apply as a discount to the final bill.
    Scenario is like that sometimes customer asked to give us the discount on bill for whatever they accrued so far.
    This is again cannot solved by standard SAP, but any thought by any body welcome. We have already thought that we need to enhance the solution.
    Solution needed urgently.

  • Unable to allocate 27160 bytes.........Help needed urgently

    hi
    in my production database in getting this error..
    ORA-04031: unable to allocate 27160 bytes of shared memory ("shared
    pool","unknown object","sga heap(1,0)","session param values")
    help needed urgently

    If you have a program that does not use bind variables you can get this error.
    In such cases you do not want to increase the size of the shared pool, but reduce it, and flush regularly. This is a bug in the application and should be fixed to use bind variables.
    Another possible workaround is setting cursor_sharing = force, but this can cause other problems, so should only be used as a last resort. If the apps connections can be distinguished by user account or machine, then a log on trigger could be set cursor_sharing just for that application, to limit the damage until the vendor can fix it.

  • Help needed urgent using jdbc

    Hi,
    How to check the existance of the table in the database using JDBC?
    Thanks in advance

    Depends on what DB vendor you are using. For example if your using oracle you could check for a match in "select * from ALL_TABLES".
    Another way is to do a query on that table and catch a SQLException.
    Exception thrown = no table.
    No exception = table exists.

  • Help needed urgently to get the values from the jsp page.

    hi,
    I am badly stuck into this problem.Please help me and find a solution.
    I am using ms-access and jsp.
    my database structure is as given below:
    m_emp_no | from_date | to_date | approver| status |
    1002 | 22/9/2008 | 23/9/2008|1003 |pending
    1004 | 29/9/2008 | 30/9/2008|1003 |pending
    2044 | 15/9/2008 | 16/9/2008|3076 |pending
    now this is exactly a leave apply scenario where a page is displayed and the user has to fill in the details to apply leave.then the approver has to approve that leaves so even, he should get the details in his account.
    for example here 1003 has to approve leaves for 1002 & 1004.i am able to fetch data from database for the particular approver here is the coding:
    <html>

    this will display both the rows but when i try to retrieve the values into update.jsp using the code given below it gives me only one value which is the first 1002.
    {code}approved=(String)request.getParameter("approved");
    id=(String)request.getParameter("id");{code}
    but i need both the values to be inserted into the update.jsp only then the approver will be able to approve the leaves individually with respect to the m_emp_no.
    please help me out.

  • Java Progrramming HELP, Needed Urgently, T hanks

    hey guys,
    I have this lab I need to be done tomorrow, its been weeks lol of thinking and figuring things out can someone make it work ? Pleaseeeee !
    I feel like going out and yelling for help lol I have been trying to figure this out for weeks now.
    I am pasting my Lab and My Codes I did so far, And Please I really need this done today at any rate, all help would be kindly appreciated.
    A Java program is required that will produce a number of reports based on the data from the Product file. This file contains the product name, cost, quantity and UPC. The file name must be input. Valid data from the file will be loaded into an array.
    A menu will provide the following options: (Note there are changes from previous assignment.)
    1     Display of all valid product information including extended price and GST including totals sorted by name.
    2     Display of all invalid records sorted by name.
    3     Search and display a certain product by name.
    4     Sort by UPC and use a binary search and display a certain product by UPC. (valid records)
    9 Exit.
    Processing requirements:
    Input the data from a file and load the records into an object array. Use this object array to produce the above reports.
    Code a class definition exactly as given in the following UML.
    (For specific students: you may code the UPC as an integer but if not numeric throw an exception that is handled in main. Document your choice in your submission).
    Product
    ? Name : String
    ? UPC : String
    ? Cost : Real
    ? Quantity : Integer
    + Product (Name : String, UPC : String, Cost : Real, Quantity : Integer)
    + Calculate Extended Cost() : Real
    + Calculate GST(): Real
    Input Record:
    Product name: String
    UPC: String
    Cost: real
    Quantity: integer
    Output Reports
    1. Display of all product information including extended cost and GST including totals of these 3 fields.
    Following is a sample of the output required:
    ************************ Product Cost REPORT ****************************
    Product                    Cost Quantity Extended Cost     GST     Total Cost
    Diamond Necklace 12345678901x 54,321.99 188 10,212,534.12 510,626.71 10,723,160.83
    Tissues 98989898989x 1.99 2 3.98      0.20     4.18
    TOTALS                         10,212,538.10 510,626.91 10,723,165.01
    2. Display of all invalid records and the count.
    Following is a sample of the output required:
    Invalid UPC Records = 1
    Count Record
    1          Tiara Diamond, 12345678901x, 36020.00, 2
    3. Search and display a certain product by name. Display appropriate message if not found.
    Following is a sample of the output required:
    Enter product name: CrownJewels
    CrownJewels 99999999991x     100,000.00 1 100,000.00 5,000.00 $105,000.00
    6. Display the product information sorted by name
    Following is a sample of the output required:
    ************************ Product Cost REPORT ****************************
    Product                    Cost Quantity Extended Cost     GST     Total Cost
    CrownJewels 99999999991x 100,000.00 1 100,000.00 5,000.00 $105,000.00

    TOTALS          (complete these values)           xxx           xxx      xxx
    Java coding requirements for this assignment
    Main methods required
    1.     Load array with all records. Display exception messages only for records that have invalid data in any of the fields. Return array of valid records and logical size.
    2.     Validate the UPC. Display each report when requested from the menu.
    3.     Justify the data in the columns. Right justify numeric fields; left justify the alpha fields.
    4.     A method for each report required in the menu.
    Class methods
    5.     Use the object method for the extended cost.
    6.     Use the object method for the GST.
    You may use additional methods in the main program but do not add any methods in the class definition.
    Use DecimalFormat for rounding.
    Create an array to hold the objects. Assume that we only need to process a file of a maximum of 500 records but the file may be larger than 500 records.
    A Universal Product Code consists of 12 digits. The first digit (from the left) is the UPC type. The next five digits are the Manufacturer code. The next five digits are the product code which is assigned by the manufacturer. The final digit is the check digit. A person can determine the check digit of a Universal Product Code by doing the following:
    Step 1: Sum all of the digits in the odd positions together.
    0+4+0+1+5+9 = 19
    Step 2: Multiply the sum from Step 1 by 3.
    3 * 19 = 57
    Step 3: Sum all of the digits in the even positions together.
    6+2+0+1+8 = 17
    Step 4: Sum together the results from Step 2 and Step 3.
    17 + 57 = 74
    Step 5: Subtract the sum from the next highest multiple of 10.
    80 - 74 = 6 [check digit]
    TEST DATA:
    Step 1: Create 5 or MORE additional records that will test all conditions. Include these in your documentation. Identify what field is tested in your test data. (Example: error in each field of the record, rounding up, rounding down, valid UPC, invalid UPC, formatting of report, file too large
    Step 2: Use the file attached.

    Take care,

    1) It's your problem that you waited until the last minute before you went for help...not ours. We'll give your problem the same attention as anyone elses...therefore your problem isn't any more urgent than any other problem here.
    2) I don't intend on doing your entire assignment. Nor do I intend on reading all of it. If you need help with a specific requirement, then post the information/code relevant to that requirement. I don't know how to help you when you bury the problem inside a 9 mile long essay.
    3) Post code in tags so it's formatted and readable. (there's a *code* button up above that makes the tags for you).

    By "exponential number, do you mean one in scientific notation (eg. -1.55743e21) or what?
    What do your files look like?
    What problem are you encountering? Is an exception being thrown? If so, give us the exact message (copy/paste). Is the results simply not what was expected? If so, give us the input, the expected results and the actual results for us to compare and consider.

  • HELP NEEDED URGENTLY BY LAME BRAINED IDIOT!!

    I have just purchased second hand my Imac G5 running OS X 10.3.5.
    I have (stupidly?) erased (sent to waste bin) ALL previously installed data/files from the internal main drive.
    Now when i start the machine and attempt to reinstall the original OS disks or do anything I get a major Kernal Panics message.
    Message starts unable to find Powerbook 8,1 driver.
    Followed by half a screen of text I do not understand.
    Message ends with "panic: we are hanging here ..."
    A message behind this text reads to restart your system, if not turned off the internal fan does an impression of a Harrier Jump Jet taking off!...makes such a loud noise like it's gonna blow up!!!
    I've never used a Mac before do not know the terminology for these systems,don't even really know how to navigate around the screen menus etc.
    I have 3 original disks that read Mac OS install disk 1 & Mac OS install disk 2 also iMac G5 additional software & apple hardware test.
    I cannot get past paic screen to load these disks.
    *It's gonna take a very special person that can translate and make this strategically shaved monkey understand how I can fix this problem.*
    *Whoever helps to get me up and running will surely be rewarded in Heaven!!!*
    Regards
    Rufus Pimpenstein III.

    Rufus, from one "strategically shaved monkey" to another - welcome to the discussions!
    Those kernel panics are probably due to a number of problems, but since you bought your iMac second hand, I would suggest that you do an "erase and install" of the OS and appplications as shown here.
    The fans are kicking in because the fan control software cannot be loaded and it is going to the full-bore setting to protect the machine.
    If that is what you tried already, then a few other suggestions from Dr. Smoke about resolving those kernel panics.
    Make sure that you unplug all USB and FireWire devices - except the keyboard and mouse of course - while doing any further troubleshooting. You want to narrow it down as much as possible.
    Be sure to post back here for more help if needed. There are plenty more shaved apes and other simians that can help you here - LOL!
