JOptionPane and Threads

I have a Class called Execute which runs as a thread. If this fails, then I want to show a JOptionPane from the main thread saying it failed (this works), but also I want to create a JOptionPane within the run() method of Execute stating the reason for the failure.
I can not put a JOptionPane directly inside the run method 'cos it doesn't get rendered correctly, so I run this in it own thread. Only trouble is that now I have two modal dialog boxes appearing simultaneously; what I want is to have them appear consecutively. I have tried to join the thread that creates the pop-up but then it does not get rendered. Any ideas? I have posted an extract of the code below for testing
public class Execute implements Runnable {
     File success = new File ("/ukirtdata/orac_data/deferred/.success");
     File failure = new File ("/ukirtdata/orac_data/deferred/.failure");
     success.delete();
     failure.delete();
     try {
         success.createNewFile();
         failure.createNewFile();
     catch (IOException ioe) {
         logger.error("Unable to create success/fail file", ioe);
         return;
     SpItem itemToExecute;
     if (!isDeferred) {
         itemToExecute = ProgramTree.selectedItem;
         logger.info("Executing observation from Program List");
     else {
         itemToExecute = DeferredProgramList.currentItem;
         logger.info("Executing observation from deferred list");
     SpItem inst = (SpItem) SpTreeMan.findInstrument(itemToExecute);
     if (inst == null) {
         logger.error("No instrument found");
         success.delete();
         return;
     String tname = QtTools.translate(itemToExecute, inst.type().getReadable());
     // Catch null sequence names - probably means translation
     // failed:
     if (tname == null) {
         //new ErrorBox ("Translation failed. Please report this!");
         logger.error("Translation failed. Please report this!");
         new PopUp ("Translation Error",
                 "An error occurred during translation",
                 JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE).start();
         success.delete();
         return;
     else{
         logger.info("Trans OK");
         logger.debug("Translated file is "+tname);
            failure.delete()
            return;
    public class PopUp extends Thread implements Serializable{
     String _message;
     String _title;
        int    _errLevel;
     public PopUp (String title, String message, int errorLevel) {
         _message=message;
         _title = title;
         _errLevel=errorLevel;
     public void run() {
         JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,
                           _message,
                           _title,
                           _errLevel);

Comeon,
Someone must have some idea. I have tried making popup extend JOptionPane and implement Runnable, added a window listener which sets a boolean popDisplayed on windowOpen and windowClose, but this gets me nowhere (I have a Thread.sleep in the code as well)

Implementing sockets and threads in a jframe gui program

Hi, I am trying to find a solution to a problem I am having designing my instant messenger application.
I am creating listening sockets and threads for each client logged into the system. i want to know if there is a way to listen to other clients request from the main gui and then if another client tries to establish a connection with me for example, a thread is created for that client and then my chat gui opens automatically has soon has the other client sends his or hers first text message to me.
I am relatively new at socket programming has I am currently studying along this area. I know how to create threads and sockets but I am having trouble finding out a solution to my problem. Here is the code that I have done so far for the listening method from my main gui, and the thread class of what I have done so far.
listening socket:
     private void listeningSocket()
            ServerSocket serverSocket = null;
            boolean listening = true;
            try
                //listen in port 4444;
                serverSocket = new ServerSocket(4444);
            catch(IOException x)
                JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "cannot listen to port 4444", null, JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
            while(listening)
                client_thread w;
                try
                   w = new client_thread(serverSocket.accept(), jTextArea1);
                   Thread t = new Thread(w);
                   t.start();
                catch(IOException x)
                     JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "error, cannot start new thread", null, JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
        }thread class:

               textArea.append(messege);
        catch (IOException e)
            //error messege
            JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, error, null, JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
}

Seems like all you need to do is create a new dialog for each socket that is established. Your current design looks like it will attempt to use the same textarea for all the sockets.
I would say in your thread class do the following:
MyConversationDialog dialog = new MyConversationDialog();
while(true)
               //read messege sent by user
               messege = in.readLine();
                //display messege in textfield
               out.println(messege);
               dialog.setVisible (true);
               dialog.addMessage (message);
            }

I have a problem in this that i want to paas a form in a case that when user pres n then it must go to a form but error arises and not working good and threading is not responding

Hi
Jalil Cracker,
>>when user pres n then it must go to a form but error arises and not working good and threading is not respondin
Could you post the error information? And which line caused this error？
If you want to show Form1, you can use form.show() method
Form1 frm = new Form1();
frm.Show();
In addition, Cosmos is an acronym for C# Open Source Managed Operating System. This is not Microsoft product.If the issue is related to Cosmos, it would be out of our support. Thanks for your understanding. And you need raise an issue at Cosmos site.

JOptionPane and JDialog.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE broken?

Hi there
I've created a JDialog from a JOptionPane and I don't want the user to simply dispose of the dialog by clicking on the close button but they are still able and I'm sure that my code is correct. Is it my code that is wrong or is it a java bug? Oh I'm running on 1.3 BTW
JFrame f = new JFrame();
f.setSize(500, 500);
f.setVisible(true);
JOptionPane optionPane = new JOptionPane("Hello there", JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE, JOptionPane.OK_CANCEL_OPTION);
JDialog d = optionPane.createDialog(f, "Testing");
d.setDefaultCloseOperation(JDialog.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE);
d.setVisible(true);I know that I can just set up a JDialog directly and use the setDefaultCloseOperation(JDialog.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE) and it seems to work properly but I would like to see it work for JOptionPane!
Thanks in advance

Sorry but this doesn't make it work either. I've looked at the code for createDialog in JOptionPane and it actually adds a WindowListener to the dialog in there as well as a propertyListener. On closing the option pane it calls a method in windowClosing of the windowListener which in turn fires a property change event which then tells the dialog to dispose itself so the addition of another windowAdapter to override the windowClosing method will not help :-(
I've managed to get round it by doing something similar to
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
final JDialog dialog = new JDialog(frame, "Testing", true);
JButton button = new JButton("OK");
button.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
dialog.dispose();
JOptionPane optionPane = new JOptionPane(button, JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE, JOptionPane.OK_CANCEL_OPTION);
dialog.setContentPane(optionPane);
dialog.setDefaultCloseOperation(JDialog.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE);
dialog.pack();
dialog.setVisible(true);

Weblogic Enterprise 5.1 and threads

I know when building servers based on WLE 4.2 in was a big no-no to link in threading libraries like pthread and thread. Is this still the case in Weblogic Enterprise 5.1?

According to the product information, WLE 5.1 does not support Oracle 8.1.6, it
only goes up to
Oracle 8.1.5. But in general, I thought that with oracle there are 2 sets of
libraries, one for threads and
one for non-threaded support. You need to use the correct one, in the case of
WLE, that would be the
non-threaded one.

Hi Mary,

We are using WLE 5.0.1 ( and some 5.1) with Oracle 8.1.6 on
Solaris and found that we had to link using -lthread in order to use
Oracle (not the case in 8.1.5)
We don't actually attempt to try any threading in our apps and
have not had any problems yet but if it's the case that there
are known problems using threads we'd love to hear about
them :-)
As an aside, is Oracle 8.1.6 cleared for use by WLE ?

No matter how WLE 5.1 C++ is used, it cannot be compiled with threadedlibraries, so that restriction remains.
A WLE C++ server can act as a client and call a WLE Java Server. Doingthis does not require the WLE C++ server to be compiled with threaded
libraries.

Help on assignment, don't understand JOptionPane and showInputDialog

Hi, I am currently studying java and have problems doing my assignment. here is the assignment question. What I am looking for is pointers and hints to start on my assignment. I am not looking for the source code, rather the way to actually understand it and start writting my code
I believe this assignment wanted me to create a class Object called Zeller with the methods in it and a ZellerTester to test the Object?
I read up on the JOptionPane and the showInputDialog, but don't really quite understand it.
Do i need a constructor for the Object Zeller?
Does my assignment require me to put the showInputDialog as a method in the Zeller class? Or put it in the ZellerTester?
The isLeapYear is a method in the Object Zeller?
Here is the assignment question
Examine the method
showInputDialog() and study its function. Note the return type of this method.
Write a program on the following requirements:
1. Use the JOptionPane facility to ask the user for three positive integers,
representing the day, month and year of a date.
2. Use the Zeller�s congruence formula to find the day of the week.
3. Should include a method boolean isLeapYear(int year)
that will return true if year is a leap year, and false otherwise.
The method should check for leap years as follow:
return true if the year is divisible by 400.
return true if the year is divisible by 4 but not by 100
return false for the remaining values
Thank you.

I can't seems to return the method back to the main
Not sure where has gone wrong...
here is my code
import javax.swing.*;
public class ZellerTester
    public static void main(String[]args)
    int day = 28;
    int month = 2;
    int year = 2007;
    int z;
    boolean isLeapYear;
    String[] displayName = {"Sun", "Mon", "Tue", "Wed", "Thu", "Fri", "Sat"};
    if(month==1 || month==2) {
        if (isLeapYear = false)
            day = day-1;
          else
            day = day-2;
    if(month<3)
        month = month + 12;
    z = (1 + day + (month * 2) + (3 * (month + 1) / 5) +
         year + year / 4 + year / 400 - year/ 100) % 7;
    System.out.println("The day is " +displayName[z]);
public boolean isLeapYear(int year)
       if (year%400 == 0)
           return true;
       else if((year%4 == 0) && (year%100 != 0))
            return true;
       else
             return false;

Documents and threads to start with Crystal reports with BI

Hi,
I am a BI consultant and searching for documents and threads to gain knowledge on Crystal reports .Could any one pls send me the pointers for the same...
Kindly do the needful
Points are assured.
Thanks
James

You are in the right place for Crystal Reports and you may also want to look in the BI Forums.
A good place to start is the Help file for Crystal Reports Designer and download our sample reports. They don't use B1 as the data source but it will help to see how to use CR.
You need to specify specific questions and "how to's". Books have been written on how to use Crystal reports which is beyond the scope of this forum on one post.
Thank you

MS 6.0 and Threads

What is the official status of Measurement Studio 6.0 and Thread access? Right now all my DAQ stuff works great from Visual C++ 6.0 worker threads but my NiButton stuff doesn't. Is this expected? Do I still need to Post Messages to my NiButton controls in order to access them from within worker threads?

No, the User Interface controls should now support access from other threads. If you are seeing a problem, post the code or contact our tech support through http://www.ni.com/ask and we will see if we can give you an explanation.

User and thread feeds - wrong links in feed icon - Admins please check

It seems (at least for me) that the user- and thread-specific feeds are broken. There are feed icons on user (for example: [https://forums.sdn.sap.com/profile.jspa?userID=3472354]) and thread (for example: [How to hide the columns in EVDRE]) pages. The tooltip for these icons indicate that it is a feed for the specific user or thread, but it actually just redirects to the main feed page where I can subscribe to individual forums.
Am I doing something wrong here?
Thanks!

No, that is incorrect. It is an issue with the SDN web page, not with the feeds or a feed reader. Try clicking on the little orange RSS icon at the bottom of this page. The page it redirects to is not an RSS feed - it is a web page that lists RSS feeds.
For a long long time I thought that this was what was meant to happen. But I was really confused about why I couldn't find the feeds for threads or users, but the threads and users seemed to think that they had their own feeds. So I asked (a year ago).
Then, more recently, I realized that the link at the bottom of the page was incorrect and if I re-jiggered it a little bit I could get to the actual RSS feed of the thread. Please take another look. Hopefully we can get this fixed!
Thanks,
Ethan

Understanding asynchronous BPEL processes and threading

Hi everybody,
I have a question regarding asynchronous BPEL processes and threading.
I have an asynchronous BPEL process which delivers a message (picked up from a JMS topic) to a repository (via for instance an ICAN server). This transaction must be time-sensitive, i.e. first-in is first-out.
If I have several threads running concurrently I have no guarantee that the messages are delivered in the same order that they where generated. It seems that the suggested way around this problem is to use single-threading.
So here's the part that I do not understand:
An asynchronous request does not wait for a response. If I use single-threading then what happens to that single-thread if for some reason (for instance the ICAN server is not responding) the BPEL instance is dehydrated? Is the thread still allocated for waiting for the first response or does it go back and pick up the next thing on the topic? If the next thing on the topic is picked up then how can I be sure that the messages are delivered in the correct order? If the thread is still allocated to the single instance then does that not kindda go against the whole concept of an asynchronous process?
I hope some one can explain this to me.
Thank you in advance.
Kind regards,
Mathias
PS. This question is an attempt of a different angle on another forum thread: Asynchronuos BPEL - how to get the order of messages right?

Hi again,
A quick follow up question:
Is there any way to have several BPEL processes running on the same server with different settings for how many threads to use?
It seems that the only way to set number of threads used by BPEL is to use the configuration in the BPEL console? This is an domain setting - which means that all processes deployed to the server is effected the same way?
I am asking because I am facing a scenario where I need one BPEL process to read from a AQ queue (well actually a topic) with a single thread and another BPEL process - deployed to the same BPEL server - to read from the same AQ queue with multiple threads.
Does anyone have any idea of how to do this? Can it be done?
Any suggestions, hints or reference to any documentation would be very much appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Aagaard

Process and Thread

I am new to the servlet and JSP technology.It is said that "Servlets and CGI differ mainly in Process and Thread.CGI used processes and Servlet technology uses Threads".I would like to know what exacly is the meaning of a process and a thread.How do we say that a process uses higher resources and hence a higher resource and memory overhead.
What do we exactly mean by thread and how r they using less resources?When we say Thread t=new Thread(); what exactly is happening inside?

A thread runs with in the context of the JVM process.
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/threads/definition.html
A process is the running of an executable. A cgi can be a C .exe file or a perl script run under perl.exe.
The thread is faster because the jvm process has been loaded into memory and initialized. For each cgi call the operating system has to load the code into memeory and intialize all the variables and resources.

Process and threads

Dear community
Very kindly pleasant about information that is fiber in thread process and threads it interface between user and application ?
is this answer on user ask in application run ?
About any advises who concerns this matter , please .

Hello RB_1.

Parallel function call and thread issue

Sorry to post one issue here which is related to code. i was debugging a code which was wrote long time back by one developer. the issue is two function is called parallel using thread and one function set a variable true at end and another function just
looping until the variable is set to true. the variable value is not getting set to true. here i am posting a code snippet and just tell me what is mistake in the code for which variable is not getting set to true by first function.
when user click button then two function is invoked
private void UPDATE_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
SavedFirst();
AddCheckThread();
public void SavedFirst()
IsOpen = true;
System.Threading.Thread loadT = new System.Threading.Thread(new System.Threading.ThreadStart(SaveAll));
loadT.Start();
IsOpen = false;
private void AddCheckThread()
if (!ALLFlag)
loadingThread = new System.Threading.Thread(new System.Threading.ThreadStart(addCheck));
loadingThread.Priority = System.Threading.ThreadPriority.Lowest;
loadingThread.Start();
private void SaveAll()
if (this.InvokeRequired)
this.Invoke(new MethodInvoker(delegate
ALLFlag = false;
if (!ALLFlag)
loadingThread = new System.Threading.Thread(new System.Threading.ThreadStart(AddProducts));
loadingThread.Priority = System.Threading.ThreadPriority.Lowest;
loadingThread.Start();
return;
private void AddProducts()
if (this.InvokeRequired)
this.Invoke(new MethodInvoker(delegate
ALLFlag = false;
if (System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(this, "Would you like to add the details into the Database?", "Add?", System.Windows.Forms.MessageBoxButtons.YesNo) == System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Yes)
if (comboOUR.SelectedItem == null || comboCountry.SelectedItem == null || comboSelleble.SelectedItem == null || txtOereff.Text == "" || txtUKPrice.Text == "" || txtUSPrice.Text == "" || txtSUrCharge.Text == "" || txtOURUS.Text == "" || txtOURUK.Text == "")
FormValidation();
else
Gather_Data();
bool isInserted = false;
if (System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(this, "Would you like to add the details into \"Detailed-Product\" Too?", "Add?", System.Windows.Forms.MessageBoxButtons.YesNo) == System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Yes)
isInserted = bbaProduct.BBASaveProduct();
if (isInserted == true)
isInserted = false;
isInserted = bbaProduct.InsertInProductTable(BBAProduct.DetailProductID);
if (isInserted == true)
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(this, "Product Successfully Added ", "Add");
else
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(this, "Error Occurred !! Not Added Into the Database ", "Add");
else
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(this, "Error Occurred !! Not Added Into the Database ", "Add");
else
isInserted = bbaProduct.InsertInProductTable(0);
if (isInserted == true)
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(this, "Successfully Inserted Into the database", "Add");
else
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(this, "Error Occurred !! Not Added Into the Database", "Add");
else
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(this, "Process Cancelled By The User", "Add");
ALLFlag = true;
return;
#region Add Check
private void addCheck()
if (this.InvokeRequired)
this.Invoke(new MethodInvoker(delegate
this.Opacity = 0.8;
axShockwaveFlash1.Visible = true;
axShockwaveFlash1.Play();
while (!ALLFlag)
int x = 0;
axShockwaveFlash1.Visible = false;
axShockwaveFlash1.Visible = false;
axShockwaveFlash1.StopPlay();
this.Opacity = 1;
ALLFlag = false;
loadingThread.Abort();
return;
help me to locate where is the mistake for which ALLFlag value is not getting set to true. thanks

Your reliance on a field value across threads isn't going to work reliably. In a multi-core/multi-threaded world the memory model allows for reading data out of order for optimization reasons. Additionally the CPU can and will cache recently
used data in memory that isn't shared across processors. This can get you into trouble as you will not be reading the same value across processors.
The only correct way to ensure that multiple threads access the same data correctly is to use sync objects that are designed for that such as a Semaphore or Mutex. Sync objects allow you to safely share data across threads.
Overall your code appears to be trying to update the UI using a thread but since it is calling Invoke each time you are basically spawning a thread that then blocks waiting for the UI thread. You could pretty much eliminate your issues by getting rid
of the threading calls altogether along with any sort of state management variables that were arbitrarily created (ALLflags) and simply use BeginInvoke. You didn't post who was calling your higher level save methods but if it is a UI element then BeginInvoke
and InvokeRequired are completely redundant as is all the threading.
You can cleanly update this code to eliminate all the extra variables and threading and simply use the newer async/await functionality to help resolve the issues your code is having. But you still have problems with the invoked code. In one of
the methods you are looping while waiting for a variable to be set. But since you invoked it then it is occurring on the UI thread. Because it is on the UI thread and that can only do 1 thing at a time, if ALLflag is false your code will deadlock.
The only other code that would set it to true cannot run because it is also invoked on the UI thread and only one of them can run at any one time. Basically each of your threads are going to try to run on the same thread and only 1 of them will be able
to. Until the first thread method finishes the second one will never run.
If you need Boolean flags then consider using a ManualResetEvent instead. It is thread safe, works across threads and doesn't have any of the problems of a Boolean field when talking about threading. But you still have a deadlock between your invoked
code that nothing will solve except rewriting your code.

Find sequence and thread number of Oracle 10g Database

Hallo!I am a newbie Oracle DBA studying for OCP.I am trying various methods of performing flashback of the database.
Out of these options there is one that uses the sequence and thread numbers of the database as below
RMAN> FLASHBACK DATABASE
2> TO SEQUENCE=223 THREAD=1;
How can I find out current sequence and thread numbers of the db to enable me implement such a flashback strategy?
Thanks.

Current sequence# is the one with status = CURRENT
SELECT group#, thread#, sequence#, status FROM v$log;Lukasz
