Please kill or alter a thread

In the Forms forum, there is a thread that has been running on since August, 2001:
WebForms And Open MS Word Document EXAMPLE
Every day or so, somebody replies to it saying "Please send me a copy". It was started by someone named Martin, who offered to send people copies of his work showing how to open a Word document from WebForms.
He has disappeared from the Oracle Forums over 4 years ago, but people keep asking for a copy. There are now over 500 replies, and it is annoying to see it continue to pop up.
I have tried posting a notice telling everyone he is gone, but they do not see it since my post is near the end, and all they see is the first page.
Can the thread be deleted?
Thank you.

Well... the document apparently exists -- it is from a book by Jonathan Ingram.
I collected the email addresses from the first page and sent an email asking if anyone still had the document. I received one response and document, but it was a Word file, not a PDF, so I am not absolutely sure it is the same.
The document contains a link to the table of contents that lists a url that is unreachable, followed by: /BOOKS/High.Performance.Oracle.Database.Automation
A Google search turns up a book by that title, and Google has a cached view of the Table of contents. The book is:
High Performance Oracle Database Automation
Author: Jonathan Ingram
ISBN: 1576101525
1997
And looking a little more in Google, I found the html version of the PL/SQL Coding Standards, which is Appendix D of the book.
http://docs.online.bg/DB/Oracle_8_Automation/appendix-d.html
which is apparently stored in "Online Books Archive - Bulgaria Online".
It looks like I can buy the book on-line for $5 (USD).
So... JKestely, what do you suggest?

How to kill parent and child thread in sequnece

Hello freinds,
I have one class FirstClass which creates one thread Pserver and Pserver creates three threads then how to kill parent Pserver and child threads.........

define a method that requests that the parent thread terminate itself, and within the code called when the thread is shutting itself down, have it do something similar to its child threads: call methods that request they shutdown themselves.
One common way to do this is to interrupt the thread.

How to "kill" AWT Event Queue thread without using System.exit()?

When I run my program and the first GUI window is displayed a new thread is created - "AWT-Event Queue". When my program finishes, this thread stays alive and I think it causes some problems I have experienced lately.
Is there any possibility to "kill" this thread without using System.exit() (I can't use it for some specific reasons)

All threads are kept alive by the JVM session. When you use System.exit(int) you kill the current session, thus killing all threads. I'm not sure, though...
What you could do, to make sure all threads die, is to make ever thread you start member of a thread group. When you want to exit you app, you kill all the threads in the thread group before exit.
A small example:
//Should be declared somewhere
static ThreadGroup threadGroup = new ThreadGroup("My ThreadGroup");
class MyClass extends Thread {
super(threadGroup, "MyThread");
Thread thread = new Thread(threadGroup, "MySecondThread");
void exit() {
//Deprecated, seek alternative
threadGroup.stop();
System.exit(0);
}

Please confirm that stubs are thread-safe

Can someone please confirm that if one is to invoke the same remote method from more than one thread in a client application that one does not need to get multiple remote stubs for the same RMI server object. As long as the implementation of the remote method is thread safe, everything okay, correct?
In otherwords, are remote stubs them selves thread safe? I always assumed they were.
Thanks in advance

Stubs are threadsafe. The reason is that a second concurrent invocation via the same stub will use a new TCP connection. I took this up with Sun once and the response was along the lines 'if it doesn't say it isn't thread-safe, it's thread-safe'.
It's the method implementation at the server that isn't thread-safe, unless you make it so.

Sharing & permisson Custom access (please don't post other threads)

I keep getting "The folder “” can’t be opened because you don’t have permission to see its contents" I recently moved from leopard to snow leopard.

}QUESTION: how do i prevent this error, and therefore enable those threads in that run method to run? thanks.

Well I don't really want to get into the design of your solution but there are a lot of errors in the code you've posted. I presume the code you posted isn't the code you're running as there are declarations missing and it won't compile. But the fundamental answer to your question is that to avoid the error you initially described you need to make sure your reading and writing threads are fully initialised before your frame thread starts running.

Audio output problems... PLEASE KILL ME?

I have an Edirol FA-66 (which I love) and I decided it was time to move beyond the 'ol "line out" computer speakers for audio, and mastering w/ headphones.
In other words, go "legit".
But I also didn't want to have to plug, and unplug my headphones and the monitors from that same jack on the front of the FA-66, so I went shopping for some monitors that have "digital-in" and utilize the Edirol's digital-outs (plus I wanted to utilize the digital sound quality). So I plunked for the Edirol M-15 micromonitors. And they're pretty darn decent, especially for the price.
Obviously, the headphone jack is "output 1-2". So I had to crate an aggregate output using output 5-6 for the digital out to the speakers.
And it worked! Sort of.
In Logic, obviously, I can just switch to output 1-2 to hear things through my FA-66 headphone hack, and then back to 5-6 to hear through my speakers. Not ideal, especially when dealing w/ several tracks, but at least I can choose.
But I can't hear any OTHER computer stuff through my headphones w/ this configuration, not iTunes, nada!
And when I change the output in sysprefs, or using PTH Volume to, say, "internal speaker" I get SOME audio out of that, like iTunes and web, and then the rest of my audio (alerts, etc) out of my monitors via 5-6.
And I can NEVER control my monitor volume via the system volume controls.
ARGH!!
This is super frustrating. I'd love to have more "on the fly" control over where my sound is coming out of.
HELP!?
e

And, yes. I was aware of that set-up you described (aside from not having to switch the front jack) However, more importantly, I was merely trying to utilize the digital-out on the FA-66, as opposed to the 1/4"-1/8" adaptor method.
I think your way of thinking about that is right, but practically speaking that's still not how most people are doing it. The digital output on the back of the interface is really designed to go to a DAT or some other kind of digital piece of equipment, and not to monitors. Since sound has to be converted back to to an analogue signal before coming out of the speakers, it's really just a matter of whether you're asking the interface to do that conversion, or the speakers. If one has much better built components it might make a bit of a difference, but in this case I don't think it will.
If you did try to do it the way I described, I think you'll find that the signal sounds pretty much the same. And you won't have to hassle with configuring your inputs for itunes and your headphones and all that.
There are some interfaces, like the M-Audio Firewire 410, that come with little control panel software that control the Ins and Outs of the device. In that case, you can tell the device to send any signal that is coming from 1-2 of Logic or iTunes to the digital output, or to any output you want. And you can also assign the headphones out to correspond to whatever output you want. I don't think the FA66 has this, but if it does you may be able to assign 1-2 to the digital output. IF it doesn't have this option, and you are really determined to use a digital signal from the interface into your monitors but want an easy work flow, you should look into getting an interface where all of the outputs are configurable in this way. But if I were you'd I'd send the monitors through out 1-2 and be done with it!
Many small interfaces, like the Apogee Duet (which is by far the best two in, two out, portable interface on the market), don't have any digital outs at all. It just has 1/4 inch headphones out, and 1/4 inch left and right monitor outs. It sounds fantastic and many professionals, myself included, use it. So you don't need to have a digital signal from your interface to your monitors to get the very best sound.
Good Luck!

Sun, please kill the Java pirate - Decompiler

I respect the "Java Decompiler" creator, what was the motive he/she created this tool? I used this tool before to decompile a full blown Java program, amazed me much and "happy" too I can learn how the software creator created such an amazed program. In other side, sad about that his/her program being "naked and raped by a pirate"!!. How to fight against Java Decompiler? Does Sun doing something on protecting the intelligent asset of other people?

Does Sun doing something on protecting the intelligent
asset of other people?This is an age old question that is not only true in Java, but all languages. Don't ask Sun, they haven't any liabiity in it, nor should they. As in all cases, if you don't want anyone looking at your code, don't publish it. If you have something you are going to sell, then you have a choice to make: how difficult do you want to make your code to read when decompiled (notice it is WHEN and not if). If it bothers you, then forget all the good object oriented design you've had and take some real effort in leaning to make you code unreadable, then put it through and obfuscator, at least then when it is decompiled it will still be hard to read.
Is there a way to make sure no one can ever steal your code? Sure, don't connect your computer to the internet, don't publish, and don't let anyone ever see the source or your ideas, but then they could steal your computer and your source would be on it. So the answer to the eternal question is: "NO! There isn't any way to be sure no one can ever see your source." That could be why when you have a new product, even the large companies figure they only have a 6 month lead window at best. Your competition is going to get your product the first chance they get and decompile it (or tear it appart if it's hardware), look at it, and make a product to compete with it. They may not use your code directly, but they will use your ideas and find out how to do anything that you have developed that is "new".
I will give you a classic example here that I personally know of: When IBM came out with the AT, Tandy (Radio Shack) got one, took it into the lab, and cloned it and called it a model 3000. Yes, they did a true cloning right down to the ROMS (they still said IBM in them). The day Tandy, Radio Shack, release their "Model 3000", IBM had lawyers sitting on the front steps of Tandy HQ. Since the ROMs even said IBM in them, it was not a contest.
Can you protect your code: NO! Just remember not everyone in the world is interested in stealing your code. Most will just buy it and use it. Those that really want to steal it, will do so, in one form or another. You may slow them down a bit, but any one that really wants to is going to see it in some type of source--no matter what language you use and strategy you use to stop them.

Kill Event thread or abort/restart main VI

I am looking for a method of killing off an event thread once it is in the middle of executing. A description of my problem is below (I am using labview 8.2).
My main VI is reading my DAQ and constantly updating the main control panel with the data and logging the data at operator defined rates.
The user can then select different functions for the system to execute using an enumeration and a Boolean control.
When the user selects the Boolean control (run button) an event is triggered, the ENUM is read, and various sub-vi's execute to complete the function (none of the sub-vis have visible control panels all of them use some of the data from the main vi's controls/indicators passed by reference).
The user also has a stop button. If pressed another event is generated. I would like to kill the run event in this case, at any point in its execution (long delays in some of the sub-vi's). Then I can set the system back to default and continue on selecting another function in the enumeration and run button press.
I would also considering aborting the main vi and then restarting it as long as the front panel remains open.

I appreciate the reply. I agree that the event cannot be killed, I have tried several "tricks". The code does go into the stop event while the run event/sub vi is executing.
I had the ref to the stop button wired into the sub-vi's already. Some of these vi's are fairly in depth, do you have a recommendation to continuously read its state without getting into every loop etc that is in the sub-vi? I was trying not to monitor this buttons state at every point in the sub-vi's block diagrams.
Thanks
