Need help with AS 2 Tween class
Hi,
I'm using the tween class just fine, but I want my tween to
move on a curve.
I can't seem to figure out how to achievve this.
I get the math to do this sort of thing, and I think I could
manage it with
AS3, but the project requires the use of AS2. I'm having
issues
transitioning what I know to what I need.
Can anyone help??
Thanks,
KB
you can use the tween class to update an object property and,
if you have a parametric equation for your curve, you can use your
tween's onMotionChanged event to update your object's _x and _y
properties.

what am i doing worng

bckck5sorry for the noobish stuff
anyways here is the code that is supposed to add the 2 expressions
public static Quadratic sum(Quadratic q1, Quadratic q2)
int qsumA, qsumB, qsumC;
qsumA = q1.getA() + q2.getA();
qsumB = q1.getB() + q2.getB();

I''ve just started out with Java and I need help with my latest program.
The program looks someting like this:
public class MultiServer {
public static void main(Straing[] args) {
ServerGUI GUI = new ServerGUI();
public class ServerGUI extends JFrame implements ActionListener {
private TextArea textArea;
public ServerGUI() {
//setting up the JFrame and stuff like that

public addGUI() {
//setting up the JFrame and stuff like that
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) {
if(button == printButton) {
textArea.append("THIS DOES NOT WORK!");
} The problem is as follows: I want to be able to write text in the textArea in class ServerGUI from the class addGUI, but I can't. I hope you understand what I mean.
How is this fixed? Please help me!public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) {

Need Help With File Matching Records
I need help with my file matching program.
Here is how it suppose to work: FileMatch class should contain methods to read oldmast.txt and trans.txt. When a match occurs (i.e., records with the same account number appear in both the master file and the transaction file), add the dollar amount in the transaction record to the current balance in the master record, and write the "newmast.txt" record. (Assume that purchases are indicated by positive amounts in the transaction file and payments by negative amounts.)
When there is a master record for a particular account, but no corresponding transaction record, merely write the master record to "newmast.txt". When there is a transaction record, but no corresponding master record, print to a log file the message "Unmatched transaction record for account number ..." (fill in the account number from the transaction record). The log file should be a text file named "log.txt".
Here is my following program code:

I am not sure what is wrong with my code above to make my results different from the correct results.
Much help is appreciated. Please help.From the output, it looks like one problem is just formatting -- apparently you're including a newline in log entries and not using tabs for the newmast output file.
As to why the numbers are off -- just from glancing over it, it appears that the problem is when you add multiple transaction values. Since account.combine() is so simple, I suspect that you're either adding creating transaction objects incorrectly or not creating them when you should be.
Create test input data that isolates a single case of this (e.g., just the Mary Smith case), and then running your program in a debugger or adding debugging code to the add/combine method, so you can see what's happening in detail.
Also I'd recommend reconsidering your design. It's a red flag if a class has a name with "Create" in it. Classes represent bundles of independant state and transformations on that state, not things to do. -

<h1>For Students</h1>
<p>The University of Massachusetts Amherst is leading a Commonwealth Alliance for Information Technology Education (CAITE) to design and carry out comprehensive programs that address under representation in information technology (IT) education and the workforce. CAITE will focus on women and minorities in groups that are underrepresented in the Massachusetts innovation economy; that is, economically, academically, and socially disadvantaged residents.</p>
<p>The project will pilot a series of outreach programs supported by educational pathways in three regions (one rural, one suburban, and one urban). The project will include work with high school teachers, staff, and counselors. CAITE will identify best practices and disseminate, deploy, extend and institutionalize these best practices statewide and nationally.</p>
<p>Community colleges are the centerpiece of CAITE because of the central role they play in reaching out to underserved populations and in serving as a gateway to careers and further higher education.</p>
<p>This project will build a broad alliance built on its leadership in and partnership with the Commonwealth Information Technology Initiative (CITI), the Boston Area Advanced Technological Education Center (BATEC), regional Louis Stokes Alliances and NSF EGEP programs, and other partnerships and initiatives focused on information technology education and STEM pipeline issues</p>

I need help with Creating Key Pairs
Hello,
I need help with Creating Key Pairs, I generate key pais with aba provider, but the keys generated are not base 64.
the class is :
import java.io.*;
import java.math.BigInteger;
import java.security.*;
import java.security.spec.*;
import java.security.interfaces.*;
import javax.crypto.*;
import javax.crypto.spec.*;
import au.net.aba.crypto.provider.ABAProvider;
class CreateKeyPairs {
private static KeyPair keyPair;
private static KeyPairGenerator pairGenerator;

private static PublicKey publicKey;
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
if (args.length != 2) {
System.out.println("Usage: java CreateKeyParis public_key_file_name privete_key_file_name");
return;
createKeys();
saveKey(args[0],publicKey);
saveKey(args[1],privateKey);
private static void createKeys() throws Exception {
Security.addProvider(new ABAProvider());
pairGenerator = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance("RSA","ABA");
pairGenerator.initialize(1024, new SecureRandom());
keyPair = pairGenerator.generateKeyPair();
privateKey = keyPair.getPrivate();
publicKey = keyPair.getPublic();
private synchronized static void saveKey(String filename,PrivateKey key) throws Exception {
ObjectOutputStream out= new ObjectOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(filename));
out.writeObject(key);
out.close();

How i can generated the key pairs in base 64 or binary????
Thanxs for help me

South America.I don't use ABA but BouncyCastle
this could help you :
try
java.security.Security.addProvider(new org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider());
java.security.KeyPairGenerator kg = java.security.KeyPairGenerator.getInstance("RSA","BC");
java.security.KeyPair kp = kg.generateKeyPair();
java.security.Key pub = kp.getPublic();
java.security.Key pri = kp.getPrivate();
System.out.println("pub: " + pub);
System.out.println("pri: " + pri);
byte[] pub_e = pub.getEncoded();
byte[] pri_e = pri.getEncoded();
java.io.PrintWriter o;
java.io.DataInputStream i;
java.io.File f;
o = new java.io.PrintWriter(new java.io.FileOutputStream("d:/pub64"));
o.println(new sun.misc.BASE64Encoder().encode(pub_e));
o.close();
o = new java.io.PrintWriter(new java.io.FileOutputStream("d:/pri64"));
o.println(new sun.misc.BASE64Encoder().encode(pri_e));
o.close();

StringBuffer keyBase64 = new StringBuffer();
String line = br.readLine ();
while(line != null)
keyBase64.append (line);
line = br.readLine ();

I need Help with a website I've created
I need help with a website I've created (www.jonathanhazelwood.com/lighthouse) I created the folowing site with dreamweaver at my current resolution 1366 by 768. Looks great on my screen resolution but if it is viewed on other resolutions the menu moves and some of the text above and below. How can I keep all content centered and working like it does on 1366 by 768 on all resolutions. The htm to my site is below I started off with a blank template through dreamweaver CS5.

<p> Special Message from Perry Stone </p>
<h2> Was Jesus Born on December 25?</h2>

<p>Last year, in response to the growing number of Christians who celebrate Hanukkah but hate Christmas, I wrote an article for this website titled “Hanukkah or Christmas?” I explained why I think Jesus was either conceived or birthed on December 25.</p>

</html>Look at all the apdiv's you have. Those are absolutely positioned layers. I'm assuming by your post that you are very new to Dreamweaver and HTML and CSS. I would highly recommend not using absolutely positioned layers until you have a better grasp on HTML and CSS.
Looking at your code I would suggest that you consider using one of Dreamweaver's built in, or downloadable templates as a starting point and work from there.

I need help with a VB Application
I need help with building an application and I am on a tight deadline. Below I have included the specifics for what I need the application to do as well as the code that I have completed so far. I am having trouble getting the data input into
the text fields to save to a .txt file. Also, I need validation to ensure that the values entered into the text fields coincide with the field type. I am new to VB so please be gentle. Any help would be appreciated. Thanx
•I need to use the OpenFileDialog and SaveFileDialog in my application.
•Also, I need to use a structure.
1. The application needs to prompt the user to enter the file name on Form_Load.
2. Also, the app needs to use the AppendText method to write the Employee Data to the text file. My project should allow me to write multiple Employee Data to the same text file. The data should be written to the text file in the following format (comma
delimited)
FirstName, MiddleName, LastName, EmployeeNumber, Department, Telephone, Extension, Email
3. The Department dropdown menu DropDownStyle property should be set so that the user cannot enter inputs that are not in the menu.

Need help with calculator project for an assignment...
Hi all, I please need help with my calculator project that I have to do for an assignment.
Here is the project's specifications that I need to do"
"""Create a console calculator applicaion that:
* Takes one command line argument: your name and surname. When the
program starts, display the date and time with a welcome message for the
user.
* Display all the available options to the user. Your calculator must include
the arithmetic operations as well as at least five scientific operations of the
Math class.
-Your program must also have the ability to round a number and
truncate it.
-When you multiply by 2, you should not use the '*' operator to perform the
operation.
-Your program must also be able to reverse the sign of a number.
* Include sufficient error checking in your program to ensure that the user
only enters valid input. Make use of the String; Character, and other
wrapper classes to help you.
* Your program must be able to do conversions between decimal, octal and
hex numbers.
* Make use of a menu. You should give the user the option to end the
program when entering a certain option.
* When the program exits, display a message for the user, stating the
current time, and calculate and display how long the user used your
program.
* Make use of helper classes where possible.
* Use the SDK to run your program."""
When the program starts, it asks the user for his/her name and surname. I got the program to ask the user again and again for his/her name and surname
when he/she doesn't insert anything or just press 'enter', but if the user enters a number for the name and surname part, the program continues.
Now my question is this: How can I restrict the user to only enter 'letters' (and spaces of course) but allow NO numbers for his/her surname??

Your help will be much appreciated.

What you could do is checking the input string for numbers. If it contains numbers, just reprompt for the Name.
AND you might want to ask yourself why the heck a calculator needs to know the users Name. -
Need help with almost completed plugin engine project
Hi all,
For a while now I have been working on a plugin engine. After a few iterations, the engine is similar to the Eclipse engine, in that plugins use extension points and extensions to allow contributions. Unlike the eclipse engine I have added the ability for plugins to fire events through the engine and other plugins can add listeners, all through the plugin.xml manifest. Dependencies are mostly handled automatically at plugin load time (when extensions get resolved to extension points, and listeners get resolved to events). For the case where a plugin needs to use classes from another plugin, dependencies are also allowed to be declared. Like the eclipse engine, activation of plugins occurs the first time a class is used within the plugin's classpath, OR a plugin can be activated after it is loaded.
What I need help with is testing, working on examples to provide with the engine project, and feedback/suggestions before we release the M1 build. I am asking for those that are interested in this type of work to volunteer to help where applicable and possible. I want to provide a solid plugin engine to the java community, one that is easy to use, works well, and is pretty effecient in terms of resource usage and performance.
Of particular interest to me right at the moment is dealing with multiple versions. As I see it, the engine will be used within an application and as such plugins would be distributed with a specific application version. The plugin version itself is more of a notification as to what version a plugin is, although I imagine it will help when updating at runtime as well.
Just a few other details of the engine. It handles (or will soon) dynamic load, unload and reload of plugins at runtime. Plugins can be distributed in an archive file format, we call .par (Plugin ARchive), with additional plugin filename extensions configurable at runtime. The plugins can be developed and deployed in an expanded directory format as they are in Eclipse as well, or in the archive format. In the archive format they do not need to be unzipped when deployed, and they can contain embeded jar/zip libraries. The engine handles finding and creating classes directly out of the .par file at runtime.
Multiple locations to find plugins are configurable before the engine starts, and even after it starts more could be added to allow additional locations to find plugins. URLs are supported, and soon the HTTP protocol will be supported so that plugins can be downloaded and installed at runtime.
The project can be found at www.sourceforge.net/projects/genpluginengine. If you would like to get involved and help out, please sign up on the dev mail list and send an email to introduce yourself to the rest of the members on the list.
I'll also add that I am working on a Swing UI Framework built entirely from plugins. It provides a ready-to-launce UI application that developers can simply add their plugins to, extending various extension points of the framework to have menu items, toolbar buttons, status bar access, help and preferences dialog additions, file i/o choosers, tons of open-source components ready to use (or extend to add on to), and like Eclipse, hopefully... draggable window frames that can be dropped on any other frame to form a tabbed frame of windows. Some of this is a ways off, some is getting there now. Presently you can add menu items that do allow plugin activation when first clicked, so plugins can be loaded but not activated until needed. The Preference dialog works but is not completed, and a plugin that adds a plugin control panel to view all loaded plugins, activate them, load/unload/reload, view extension points, extensions, dependencies, etc is partially completed. The point is, to allow a ready to run UI framework in Swing with an easy path for developers to quickly build applications with. If you are interested in this, when you join the mail list and introduce yourself, indicate that you are interested in this as well, as we need help with plugin development for it and would appreciate more help here too.
Look forward to some replies.Might I suggest setting up a project at a known project-site? I've seen your progress and questions posted here from time to time, but one of the drawbacks is that you have to fill each post with the entirity of your vision to explain what you're doing. That's a lot of text to read - and most folks will skip right over it.
On the other hand, a well-crafted, good-looking project web-site, with appropriate links and docs and vision statements, diagrams, etc. will have more likelyhood of attracting volunteers. java.net and sourceforge.net are likely spots to set up shop. In addition, you get CVS and bug-tracking systems, which can be quite valuable in such a large-scale project where there are lots of pieces. -

hi,
i need help with my program here. this one should works as:

}the only problem now is about how it should display the right info about the person whenever i click its name on the list.. something about file reading or something, i just cant figure it out.
and also about how to make it scroll once it exceeds the list.. i cant make it work, maybe something about wrong declaration..
thanks in advance..
Edited by: syder on Mar 14, 2008 2:26 AMLike said before, do one thing at a time. At startup, something like:
//put all the content in a list
ArrayList<String> lines = new ArrayList<String>();
while(String line=rand.readLine()!=null) {
lines.add(line);
}If you follow the good advice to create a class to encapsulate the entries, you could populate a list of such entries like this:
static final int ENTRY_SIZE = 3;//you have 3 fields now, better to have a constant if that changes
ArrayList<Entry> entries = new ArrayList<Entry>();
for(int i=0; i<lines.size(); i+=ENTRY_SIZE) {
Entry entry = new Entry(lines.get(i), lines.get(i+1), lines.get(i+2);
entries.add(newEntry);
}You could also do both of the above in one run, but I think you will understand better what's happening if you do one thing at a time.
If you don't want to put the entries in an encapsulating class, you can still access this without looping:
int listStartIdx = <desired_entry_index>*ENTRY_SIZE;
String att1 = lines.get(listStartIdx).substring(1);
String att2 = lines.get(listStartIdx+1).substring(1);
String att3 = lines.get(listStartIdx+2).substring(1); -
Need help with how to reset bios and admin password to reformat hard drive in 8440p elitebook.......
need help with how to reset bios and admin password to reformat hard drive in 8440p elitebook? removal of cmos, resetting laptop, using cccleaner, windows password recovery and hiren's was noneffective, any help is appreciated. thanks
Hi,
As your notebook is a business class machine, security is more stringent - the password is stored in non-volatile memory and there are no 'backdoor' passwords. Your best option would be to contact HP regarding this.

I'd like to request that the Pages developers bring back the "blur" frame that was in the older version of Pages. The blur frame (partnered with the alpha tool) was super versatile for making layouts, and now it's gone... Using Pages 5.1 now.
