Need an overall brief view of developing a J2EE/Swing application

Hello there
I am curious to know how does a J2EE, JFC/Swing application work? I mean the front-end is coded in Swing. The backend is, say Oracle. How is the information sent to the database and retrievd back?? I know it is not so easy to explain about that here and there might be several ways as well. But if anyone could suggest me a place wherein I can get a fair idea, that would be great. Say, for example, there is a bank bank website and online transactions have to take place.... Or a purchase made at Amazon. I just want to know the various Java APIs involved in the process.
Thak you so much. It would be of great help

Hi,
As you have said, at client end is a Swing GUI. The user requests usually goes either via specialized high level library, like java.sql/javax.sql for ODBC databases acces, java.rmi/CORBA for invoking some code on server, or goes directly through low level sockets (java.net) if speciall communication protocol is required.
The exact way informations goes depends on backend implementation and protocol it uses. In most generic case, when both sides are specialized applications written in java the RMI will be propably easiest and most powerfull method.
Ofcourse you are aware, that everything above can be done totally without java using good old CGI or PHP scripts as actually amazon.com does. If you are going to build web based front-end I strongly recommend to do it without java at user side - old CGI approach is in my opinion fastest and most user friendly way to do it (ie. think about poor creature which is using their cell-phone with www browser to see page full of java applets)

Launching Adobe Viewer from a Swing application

How do I launch Adobe Viewer (or Reader) from my Swing application. I have a help menu item that needs to open the viewer with the PDF help manual. Since the application is cross-platform, do I need different versions of Adobe with my install package? Thanks for any help.

Thanks. I tried the adobe bean and it seems to work fine until I select the "Print" icon. It crashes the Viewer and my application as well. I get the following:
Any suggestions?

Do I need to create a view for this?

Hi Ihave got 2 tables emp and project
In emp tabe:
emp_no
family name
given name
In porgect table:
emp_no
status(assigned,unassigned)
start_date
end_date
emp_no Family_name given_name
1 Smith John
In project table same employee can have many assigement eg
emp_no status start_date end_date
1 assigned 01-may-08 01-july-08
1 assigned 01-sep-08 01-july-09
1 unassigned 01-july-09 01-oct-09
In the form:
there are 2 querable fields "project ends between field1(date) and field2(date)" which is used to
retrive records which have end date between field1 and field2.
The following fields are needed to get from database:
emp.family_name emp.given_name project.start_date project.end_date No.of time assigned
Requirements:
1. project.start_date and project.end_date must be the latest project_end_date for the same emp
so in the above sample date
2. No. of time assigned is a count of total of number records which have status='assign'
So for the given sample data the record expected after query would be(field1=01-jun-08 field2=02-july-09)
emp.family_name emp.given_name project.start_date project.end_date No.of time assigned
Smith John 01-sep-08 01-july-09 2
What is the best approach to get:
1 The lastest project(latest end_date) for the emp
2. get No.of time assigned.
Do I need to create a view for this? If yes, any sample sql code this this?
Thanks for your help

Hi W1zard,
Thanks for your reply. Could you clarify the following points for me:
1.) you could create a master block basing on your emp table and a detail block basing on your project table with the relation over emp_no. set the default_where clause of your detail block programmatically using
set_block_property('project', default_where, 'status = ''assigned'' and <your_date_criteria>');
Q1: where I pit this code? in pre-query trigger in detail block?
2.) Of course you could create a view to join both of your tables if you don't want to use master detail blocks; Also do the join over emp_no
create or replace force view v_emp as
select emp.family_name, emp.given_name, project.start_date, project.end_date
from emp, project
where emp.emp_no = project.emp_no
Q2 As I mentioned before, there are multipal entries for the same emp in project table and we only need the maching record from project table which has latest end_date. So I think I need something like
max(project.end_date) somewhere in create view to make sure only one record for one employee.
Also is there possible to include the no. of assigned field(select count(*) from project where status='assigned' and emp=emp_no) into the view as well?
Q3 All the fields mentioned above are diaplay-only. So Can I create a control block which has all the fields from emp and project. Then populate them with my sql. The question is
where I put this customerised sql so when user click excute query. My sql will run and display one the form?
REally appreciated your help!

Help needed in writing custom views for rendering new HTML tags

Hi
I am in the process of making a sort of HTML editor using the JEditorKit and all,now i need to write a view which will display bi-directional text(text in reverse order),well i am not being able to get to the test at all,i don't know how to get to the text in the element being supplied to my ViewFactory.
Anyone who knows anything about what i am talking here please help me,i am open to any suggestion,anything,i am in a real mess here,please help

Hi,
You dont need any coding to set the changed value back to the context attribute.
Since you have mapped the context attribute in the DisplayView and EditView to a context attribute of component controller. So after viewing the name in your DisplayView when you navigate to EditView onActionChange,you can change the value.When you cahnge the value and submit the new value that is entered is update across the component controller and DisplayView context.
To see this create a action onActionSubmit in EditView and navigate to the DisplayView, you will see the updated value.
In webdynpro framework when the value of a context attribute is changed, then the value gets updated across all views to which the context attribute is mapped.

We need to access a view on a 32 bit Oracle 9i - Release 9.2.0.8.0 databas

Hi
I don't know if this is the correct forum:
We need to access a view on a 32 bit Oracle 9i - Release 9.2.0.8.0 database running on Windows 2003 Server, from a MS SQL 2008 R2 64 bit system running on Windows Server 2008 64 bit.
The DBA for one of the vendors involved has concluded that it is not possible to link from 64 bit MS SQL to a 32 bit Oracle install.
If it is possible, can you advice what we need to do. Thank you.

Wrong forum.
Only solution I can think to actually get to the view.
1. SQL Server, in TSQL, alllows access to ODBC driver
2. Use a ODBC driver that can access Oracle (which probably means any SQL driver that will install.)

Hi,
the main thing is that I need format with payment information structured in single column, like this:
//separator//
value1
value2
value3
//separator//
value1
value2

I work for Ford and need to download SVG viewer 3.0 ....

but on the page that im redirected to, there is no download at all. I cant find one anywhere as the page from Ford suggests in their instructions. I have done this before and have never had this problem. I had a hard drive crash and installed a new one, now i cant view EVTM's that i need.

A separate SVG viewer should no longer be necessary as most web browsers will already support the format. Have you tried opening the document in question in your web browser?

Do I need to extend QM view in Material Master

Hi,
We never use QM module in our company however, we have a mini project which is ONLY to use QM module's quality notification to perform complains and problem resolution of company product.
Hence, under above scenario do we need to extend QM view in material master in order to use Quality Notification?
Regards,
Tuff

No. You don't need to extend QM view if you want to use QM notification only. However, you would need to maintain respective master data and that again depends on the process you follow.

Could u please give me brief view over Loggers

hai,
please give me brief view about the follwoing things
1.Loggers
2.Appenders
3.Pattern Layouts
and more Question 1. How u can control the programme.
2.wt is the use Logger insted System.out.println
please help ..
thanks regards

Hi ,
Basically Loggers, Appenders and Layouts are components of the Log4J package which developers can use to log desired outputs.
Log4J provides a very robust logging facility as compared to System.out.println() statements.
Log4J is implemented by the class org.apache.log4j.
Logger :
The Logger component is used to create a logger object. The logger object basically segregates the logs into five different categories depending upon the priority. These are DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR and FATAL in ascending order of priority. The Root logger is at the top of the hierarchy and has a default priority of DEBUG.
Only those messages which have a priority greater than or equal to the priority of the root logger, will be logged.
Appenders:
An appender is the destination to which logs are written/recorded. The Logger object sends output to the appropriate Appender. There are a number of appenders like...ConsoleAppender, FileAppender, JDBCAppender, SocketAppender etc. U can use the one u like according to ur application requirements.
Layouts:
Layouts as the name suggests, are different layouts for the Appenders. U can use a SimpleLayout, HTMLLayout etc. to format the output that u receive in the Appender.
Hope this gets u started.
Keep me posted.
Cheers !!

I need to test the Multiprovider in Development

I need to test the Multiprovider in Development and prove to the management to move it to testing server.
Please tell me how to test and prove this Multiprovider?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Les,
What exactly do you need to prove? Have you created the multiprovider over some base cubes and need to show that the report results are correct? In that case you can have identical queries on the base cubes and the multiprovider and run each to match the results...

What end users need in order to view WebHelp?

We are in the process of releasing
WebHelp. A question came up: What end users need in order to view WebHelp?
Any advice?
Thank you,
lisa

Hi Lisa
Basically they need a web browser and access to the WebHelp. Preferably Internet Explorer or Firefox and whatever the browser, recent versions of each. And if you have any Flash content in your help (such as Captivate movies) the browser needs a recent version of the Flash Plug In or Helper object.
I believe Google Chrome is not a supported browser and you might see issues with other browsers than IE or FF.
Cheers... Rick

Need a fast image viewer with slideshow and autorotating

Hello everyone,
I'm currently recycling an old computer as a digital photo frame. It runs LXDE.
This computer is also used as a server on which we store our photographs.
I need a fast picture viewer, with the following features:
- fast processing
- good rendering
- image autorotation based on EXIF data
- random slideshow with recursive browsing
- GUI is preferred, or I need to find a way to add entries in PCManFM's right-click menu (any guidance is welcome)
- ability to play video would be nice but is not mandatory
I've tried many image viewers available in repos and AUR. So far only 2 of them are suitable in terms of speed: feh and qiv. But they are CLI-based (no big deal if I find a way to customize PCManFM file associations), and they do not support image autorotating based on EXIF (support has recently been implemented in qiv, but Arch's package is outdated).
Please tell me if you know about a program that'd fit my needs.
TIA.

Offtopic, but did you know feh has a right click menu? Rotation is in this menu.
Oh yes, I do know the right click. but I guess I never looked hard enough for the rotation as I do it very infrequently. Thanks for the tip.
How would I set feh, so that when I double click a image file, feh would start up and show that image? If I can get that (and I haven't tried that yet), I guess I can get rid of mirage then.
That's not an feh config, that's a config for whatever file manager you are using. I'm not sure of the options you'd need to pass feh because I always run it on the command line.
