OCA Java Programmer & OCP Java Prgrammer

Hi,
I saw in Oracle site that is is mandatory to get OCA(Associate) Java Programmer before the OCP(Professionnal) Java Prgrammer. but one of my friends is going to pass the OCP Java Prgrammer exam directly without going through the OCA.
Please i want to know if there is a possibility to get the OCP directly, for example for SE6 or SE7.
regards.

You friend can certainly take the exam *1Z0-804 Java SE 7 Programmer II* without having first taken *1Z0-803 Java SE 7 Programmer I*
He will find at that point that Oracle won't give him a certification until he goes back and passes the 1Z0-803 exam. There is a difference between passing an exam and becoming certified. To pass an exam, you schedule it at Pearson-VUE and answer enough questions correctly. Pearson will be happy to allow you to take any exam that you are willing to pay for.
To gain a certification, you have to complete all of the guidelines laid out on the Oracle Education website.

1 java test = OCP?

I am just wondering what Oracle was thinking when they decided that taking 1 java test should get an OCP credential.
When I got my first OCP, as Oracle8i DBA, I had to pass 5 tests. DBAs now have to pass 3 tests and take a course.
If someone wants to certify as a Linux Administrator, they can take 2 tests, and that's only for the OCA.
But if anyone takes the Java Programmer test, that's OCP? I passed the Java Programmer test several years ago (for Java 2), but I would never describe myself as a good java programmer; I only knew some basics.
It seems like there's some inequity here, that makes the OCP and OCM levels easily obtainable for some (java programmers), and more challenging for others (DBAs).

I am currently fairly busy, and the java certs are not my scene, and I haven't reseached sun info on this, but I am concerned, perhaps unnecessarily, about the integration of Sun Java Certs. under the Oracle wing.

Is it necessary to have an scjp certification to be a java programmer

i just want to know one thing from some professionals on the forum that is it very necessary to have an SCJP Certification if i want to apply in some big companies as a java programmer since i wont be having any other certifications that i have done java .
please tell me if it would be good for me if i do an SCJP course

In that case you should already know the answer to your stated question...

Can't hurt, probably won't help either.
please tell me if it would be good for me if i do an

Formal training never hurts.

Taking control back while calling stored procedure using java programme

I have stored procedure to load data. This procedure is invoked by java program.
The stored procedure take around 10 to 15 minutes to do complete loading of database. I want to write stored procedure when it starts loading of database at the same return the control to calling java programme so that java program can do other operation i.e. java program can not wait for control back from stored procedure.
In short stored procedure runs in background and return control back to java program when stored procedure is invoked. Is it possible then How we can achieve this.

U can acheive this using Java Threads. Create a thread submit this loading job. Once you submit the thread, you will get the control back to do other stuff.

How can I solve it? Please help! Thank you!
2nd question:
I have installed JDK1.4 Final version recently. However, after I have uninstalled it, it still appear in the Add/Remove Programme list in the control panel. I have tried to install another version of JDK, see if it would replace the JDK1.4,
but it failed. Why is it so? Now when I go to some websites designed by javascript, the Internet Explorer suddenly closed by itself. How can I solve the problem? Please help! Thank you!

Runtime rt=Runtime.getRuntime();
String command="grep \"hello\" -r /usr/MyDir ";
Process rtProc=rt.exec(command);

String line =null;
while((line=br.readLine()) != null)
System.out.println(br.readLine());
br.close();
catch(Exception e)
System.err.println("Error in command "+e);
it finds "hello" pattern only in BSearch.class file although if i fire this command on LINUX prompt it
shows all the files in /usr/MyDir which contain "hello" pattern.
java programme output :
Binary file /usr/MyDir/BSearch.class matches.
linux command output :
/usr/MyDir/one.txt: hello sdfs
Binary file /usr/MyDir/BSearch.class matches.
/usr/MyDir/two.txt: kjsdf hello sdfsdf
will anybody help me solve this problem.

What are the key points of a job nterview as a java programmer ?

Hi,
I would like to know what to expect from a job interview as an entry level java programmer ?
Do you have recommendations ?
Thank you in advance,
Grazia

Primarily, be honest. That is true only if you are going to be
be interviewed by technical people. RH people don't
care for honesty or how good you are. More than once
I was asked in an interview:
"Are you an Expert in java? You would say from 0%
0% to 100% how much do you know java?"
My usual answer is: "No. I have still a lot to
to learn, java is a vast subject and its is very
unlikely someone know it all, I have a good grasp of
the sintax and of OO design but I would say I know
just 5% to 10%". Then they make a "face" pass a
crappy test that only deals with the simplest of the
java concepts(usually it is clear the person who
designed the test does not even grasp the basic), the
last one took me 8min to answer and I leave knowing
that one more time I did not got the job.
As it is I never go any job if the RH is the
he responsible for the hiring, I only get the job
when I talk directly with technical people.
May the code be with you.'RH'? You mean 'HR'?

How to create trigger through Java programm?

I write a Java programm to create a trigger(through JDBC connection). After I run the programm, a trigger was created in Oracle 10g.But the trigger is invalid. After Compiling the trigger , a error "PLS-00103 " occured .But if I excute the SQL in SQL developer,the trigger was created successfully.
If there is some special considerations should be taken when using programm to create trigger?
My Java programm fragment as follows:
     public void createTrigger() throws SQLException{
          Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
          stmt.executeUpdate(getCreateTriggerSql());
Edited by: jerry on 2010-6-29 下午6:42

Yes the special consideration is you shouldn't perform DDL on the fly, as it has all kinds of unwanted side effects like implicit commits.
If I would start a company, and I discover one of my developers is writing this kind of program, I would fire him, on the spot.

How to become a good java programmer

Hi guys

Thanks1) Get a good java book and read it from start to finish. Understand and then use every technique demonstrated in the book before moving onto the next.
2) Develop good programming practices in general. Use resources like Code Complete and software engineering books to improve the quality of your code and development practices. This is a typical programmer's bookshelf:
[http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/images/my-programming-bookshelf-small.jpg|http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/images/my-programming-bookshelf-small.jpg]
3) Learn new things, always. Start witing things in J2EE. Start writing things in Swing. Even pick up a new language. Different perspectives help you see things in different ways and let you think in new directions.
4) Pay attention to detail. Strive to write the very best code you can every time. Think constantly about how you can do it better.
5) Solicit feedback from peers, coworkers, and quality online communities. Ask them how you can do it better. Post code examples and trust your gut if you suspect that something could be done a better way.
6) Accept that it won't happen overnight. The road to being a "good" programmer is a long one.

How to run a jms-class as a stand-alone java-Programm???

Hi,
I have another little question concerning jms. The jms programs I have written so far had to be executed
as application clients using the appclient-tool. I asked myself, if it is possible to run a class
that uses jms like a normal java-Programm with the java-command.
Unfortunately, an exception is thrown then, because there is no initial context for the JNDI
lookup. Is there a work around to this problem??
THANKS.

can you write more concretely where I can find the solution to this problem??

Can we run java programms on Windows XP?

Hi experts..
I installed JDK on Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition..but i am unable to run java programmes.
can i run java programmes on Windows XP?? if so how??
i will be very thankful..if any one solve this problem..

Yes, you can. There's a bunch of things you need to do (mostly setting the path environment variable). You should look at the documentation that came with the JDK, and check out the many forum responses to problems in setting up the JDK on Win 2K and Win XP.

VB Programmer needs java help

I am a VB programmer and have started to learn Java a little bit. I need this program to be written anytime by Monday, but it must be written in java because they plan to use it on multiple platforms. Our java programmer quit and I don't know enough to write it in java. The program is to figure payroll. The user will input their name and remove the check in the hourly check box if they are salaried. If the employee is hourly, then any hours worked over 40 are time and a half. If they are salaried, they must choose what company level they are. I have included the three salary levels below. The program then needs to print to the screen in the bottom text box their yearly salary computed for a 40 hour work week. Can anyone help me and write the program? Whoever will do this for me, I will award 34 duke dollars. That is all I have.
Thank you so much for your help,
Kori
