Print double with java.util.Formatter

Hi,
I have this code:
   double num = 5.123; 
   StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(); 
   Formatter formatter = new Formatter(sb);           
   formatter.format("%.1f",num); 
   System.out.println(formatter.toString());  the output is *5{color:#ff0000},{color}1* , but i want *5{color:#ff0000}.{color}1*
why a {color:#ff0000}*,*{color} ???
tks

I think that you have a locale problem. The Formatter thinks that your locale is one where comma is used as the decimal point (i.e., Spain). try changing your locale to another location.

  • Help with java.util.Random

    Problem:
    I wanna generate random number in interval <0;1> with two "decimal number precision" (i dont know, how to expres it exactly in English.. So, here is Patern: "*X.XX*" (For ex. it might be numbers like 0.24 , 1.00 , 0.05, 0.54) ).
    I have tried to work with java.util.Random class, but i dont understood it at all, because i'm not good in Math-English terms.
    So, how can I do it? I offer duke stars for any solve. Thanks.

    First of all, read this link to understand why all floating point numbers (float, double) can't be rounded to two places of decimals.
    [What Every Computer Scientist Should Know About Floating-Point Arithmetic|http://docs.sun.com/source/806-3568/ncg_goldberg.html]
    Consider changing your program to use integer numbers in the range of [0..100] instead. You can generate a random number in this range byRandom random = new Random();
    int randomInt = random.nextInt(101);If your problem can't be solved with this approach, you may need to tell us exactly how you plan to further process the random number.

  • Java.util.Formatter vs. java.text.MessageFormat

    Hi,
    Which formatter is faster java.text.MessageFormat or java.util.Formatter?
    At the moment I format all my strings with java.text.MessageFormat, however I want to speed-up the formatting of the strings that I log, so I though of using java.util.Formatter instead.
    Is there a benchmark that compares between those formatters?

    Why do you day those 2 doesn't do the same thing? They format messages using parameters the user passes.A 747 and a dump truck both do the same thing: move people and cargo from one place to another. But people have been known to express strong preferences for one or the other, depending on their circumstances. They usually have pretty good reasons for their choices.
    No I didn't used a profiler. It just an hunch.Never trust hunches, especially when it comes to performance questions. You'll end up making a fool of yourself every time.

  • Where is java.util.Formatter?

    Java 1.5 supposedly introduced java.util.Formatter, which gives us a printf().
    Running 'java -version' from the Terminal gives the following:
    +java version "1.5.0_16"+
    +Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_16-b06-284)+
    +Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_16-133, mixed mode, sharing)+
    When Xcode compiles this:
    import java.util.Formatter;
    System.out.printf("%s lives!\n", "Foo");
    It gives a "cannot find symbol" error for the printf line.
    Anybody know why?
    Thanks,
    Chap
    Mac OS X 10.5.6
    Xcode 3.1.2
    <rhetorical>And who ever thought that "cannot find symbol" was a sufficient error message?</rhetorical>

    Hi
    When you use Xcode, you need to modify the Ant XML file to tell it to use Java 1.5. By default, it reverts to some hideously obsolete early version of Java.
    The file to modify is called build.xml and you need to edit the source and target version, thus:
    <javac deprecation="on" srcdir="${src}" destdir="${bin}"
    source="1.5" target="1.5"
    includeAntRuntime="no"
    classpathref="lib.path" debug="${compile.debug}">
    </javac>
    The "cannot find symbol" message is distinctly unhelpful. If you select Build > Build Results from the menu, then a new window opens. On the middle line of this window there's a row of icons, with a tick, a yellow triangle, some rows of lines, and a black triangle. If you click on the third icon (the rows of lines) then the messages from the compiler are revealed. These are much more helpful.

    Where did you get this java.util.Formatter from? If you check the official 1.4.2 API for Java, that class does not exisit! However, java.util.logging.Formatter, does exisit...

    handlers= java.util.logging.FileHandler, java.util.logging.ConsoleHandlerBut I have another problem:
    jdev ignore the parameters of the FileHandler method .
    And it creates a general log file with anothers log files created each time I call the method logp.
    So I play with these parameters
    fh = new FileHandler(logFileName,true);
    fh = new FileHandler(logFileName,0,1,true);
    fh = new FileHandler(logFileName,10000000,1,true);without succes.
    I want only one log file, how to do that?

  • How do I compress a string with  java.util.zip - not a file ?

    How do I compress a string with java.util.zip?
    Is possible to compress something else except a file?

    Of course, compression works on bytes, not some higher level constructs like Strings or files.
    You can use the ZipOutputStream or DeflaterOutputStream for compression.
    And the javadoc for Deflater even has a code example of compressing a String.

  • Help with java.util.logging SocketHandler - Simple TCP Server

    I have a simple TCP serverString clientSentence;
                 ServerSocket welcomeSocket = new ServerSocket(5050);
                 while(true) {
                    Socket connectionSocket = welcomeSocket.accept();
                    BufferedReader inFromClient = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(connectionSocket.getInputStream()));
                    while ((clientSentence = inFromClient.readLine()) != null) {
                         System.out.println("Received: " + clientSentence);
                 }And I have a java.util.logging logger using a SocketHandler. I'm just calling logger.log("my message"); I get the expected result to System.out: "my message". But when I go on to call again logger.log("my next message") I get both messages in queue: "my message" and "my next message" on the next line. So, I get from these two calls to logger.log() the following result in System.out
    my message
    my message
    my next message...whereas I expected
    my message
    my next messageWhy is "my message" being saved even after being passed through the TCP connection to the server? I tried handler.flush() but that doesn't help. Pretty sure the problem isn't at the server end because when I create two loggers with their own SocketHandlers the server doesn't double up on their messages. (In other words, if I let one logger say simply "my message" and the second logger say "my next message" I get the expected output. It's like each logger needs to be flushed after sending to the server.
    Any advice appreciated.

    Yes, I was just rereading your post and it's apparent that you were suspecting the client code. Your posting only the server led me to believe that you were focusing on that and I kind of skipped over the last part.
    So to answer your question, yes, the server code looks okay. And you were suspecting the client anyway, so problem solved.

    I've created my own dictionary with dateToSQL() method overridden.
    Now it works fine. But it's a kind of strange. Oracle is used often and my

    Patric,
    Thank you for response.
    We're using Oracle 8.1.7 via OCI driver from Oracle 9.2.
    I've already tried 2.4.0 and it works fine there but I've found another
    problem there
    preventing me from using it. See my post in solarmetric.kodo.betanewsgroup.

    That's odd -- what version of Oracle are you using?
    Moving to Kodo JDO 2.4.0
    (http://www.solarmetric.com/Software/beta/2.4.0) will almost certainly
    get rid of this problem, as we use exclusively prepared statements in
    it, and therefore pass dates etc. to JDBC as parameters.
    But, to get things working with your Oracle database and Kodo JDO 2.3,
    you could create your own extension of OracleDictionary and override the
    dateToSQL() method to generate the appropriate TO_DATE() syntax. See our
    documentation for more details on creating custom database dictionaries.

  • Who use sql-mapping with java.util.regex?

    Hi everyone:
    I use the IBatis SQL-Mapping and I think it is very good.Now I want to add the search function to my BBS forum.I also want to display the content high light like jive.I mean that if I want to find the string "ibatis",then the search result "ibatis" will be high light displayed.
    So I must use the java.util.regex in jsdk1.4.But the problem is that what I get is a List if I use sql-mapping.For example:
              String resource="conf/XML/sql/lyo-sql-map.xml";
              Reader reader=Resources.getResourceAsReader(resource);
              sqlmap=XmlSqlMapBuilder.buildSqlMap(reader);
              List articlelist=sqlmap.executeQueryForList("selectSiteArticle","%"+icontent+"%");
    The result I get is a List and I have no time to use regex.
    I don't know whether I could do this:
    Iterate the List,use the regex and later place all the object back to the List.
    It's right?
    How to use regex with sql-mapping?Thks

    Any idea? :(

    The problem is because you have bound the inputText to a java.util.Date object, instead of a String. You must use Strings with inputText. However, JSF has provided a way for you to convert objects into a String. It just needs to know how to do that. Luckily for you, there is a converter already available to convert a Date object into a String. Converters will also take input Strings and convert them into an object.
    So, in your case, use the convertDateTime tag. Like this:
    <h:inputText id="dbirth" value=#{dataBean.dbrith}">
         <f:convertDateTime type="date" pattern="MMM dd, yyyy" />
    </h:outputText>Try it. You may change the pattern to whichever valid one you like.

    if (file != null)
    file = null ;
    The fos is closed before bos so the last buffer is not
    saved.
    zos.close() is enough.

  • Multi currency support with java.util.Locale

    My project has a requirement to support multiple currencies as our first internationalization feature. However, I've come across something with the Locale class that doesn't really make sense to me, and I'm wondering if anyone else has any best practices or insight.
    Why can't you create a Locale knowing only the ISO 3166 code? For multi-currency support, it doesn't make sense that I should need to provide a language in order to obtain a Locale, which is needed to generate the proper NumberFormat (and in 1.4 the java.util.Currency) class.
    Is there an instance where the language one speaks is directly correlated to the currency that they use?
    Actually, it doesn't make much sense that you can create a Locale only from a language either, since if my user a Hispanic-American, the language would be Spanish but the country (and therefore currency) would be US.
    It seems to me that if the Locale class can default a country code based on the language, it should also be able to default a language based on the country.
    Given these limitations, is there a recommended best practice about obtaining a Locale without a pre-determined language?

    Hi,
    this was a bit of a bugbear for a long time. Currency kind of wound up inexorably linked to Locale for a long time because the way a currency was formatted depended on the textual layout of the language as well as the country, and as date formatting was an issue too, it was easier for them to implement it the way they did.
    It's been an RFE for a long time, and I believe the beta releases of Merlin carry a currency API that is separate from a Locale. The link to the RFE is below. Hopefully Merlin Beta will allow you to achieve what you want - it seems to be pretty stable from what I've seen of it, and Sun do have a good record when it comes to releasing stable betas, so I wouldn't panic too much about the fact you're developing on a "pre-release candidate" JDK.

    Hope that helps!

  • Printing HTML with Java Printing Service(JDK1.4 beta)

    Hi there!
    I'm currently checking out the new Java Printing Service (JPS) in the new JDK1.4 beta. This looks like a very promising printing API, with amongst others printer discovery and support for MIME types - but I have some problems with printing HTML displayed in a JEditorPane.
    I'm developing an application that should let the user edit a (HTML)document displayed in a JEditorPane and the print this document to a printer. I have understood that this should be peace-of-cake using the JPS which has pre-defined HTML DocFlavor amongst others, in fact here is what Eric Armstrong says on Javaworld (http://www.javaworld.com/javaone01/j1-01-coolapis.html):
    "With JPS, data formats are specified using MIME types, for example: image/jpeg, text/plain, and text/html. Even better, the API includes a formatting engine that understands HTML, and an engine that, given a document that implements the Printable or Pageable interface, generates PostScript. The HTML formatting engine looks particularly valuable given the prevalence of XML data storage. You only need to set up an XSLT (eXtensible Stylesheet Language Transformation) stylesheet, use it to convert the XML data to HTML, and send the result to the printer."
    After one week of reasearch I have not been able to do what Armstrong describes; print a String that contains text of MIME type text/html.
    I have checked the supported MIMI types of the Print Service returned by PrintServiceLookup.lookupDefaultPrintService(). This is the result:
    DocFlavor flavor = DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.GIF;
    PrintRequestAttributeSet aset = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
    aset.add(MediaSizeName.ISO_A4);
    aset.add(new Copies(2));
    PrintService[] service = PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(flavor,aset);
    if (service.length > 0) {
    System.out.println("Selected printer " + service[0].getName());
    DocFlavor[] flavors = service[0].getSupportedDocFlavors();
    for (int i = 0;i<flavors.length;i++) {
    System.out.println("Flavor "+i+": "+flavors.toString());
    Selected printer \\MUNIN-SERVER\HP LaserJet 2100 Series PCL 6
    Flavor 0: image/gif; class="[B"
    Flavor 1: image/gif; class="java.io.InputStream"
    Flavor 2: image/gif; class="java.net.URL"
    Flavor 3: image/jpeg; class="[B"
    Flavor 4: image/jpeg; class="java.io.InputStream"
    Flavor 5: image/jpeg; class="java.net.URL"
    Flavor 6: image/png; class="[B"
    Flavor 7: image/png; class="java.io.InputStream"
    Flavor 8: image/png; class="java.net.URL"
    Flavor 9: application/x-java-jvm-local-objectref; class="java.awt.print.Pageable"
    Flavor 10: application/x-java-jvm-local-objectref; class="java.awt.print.Printable"
    As you can see there is no support for text/html here.
    If anyone has a clue to what I'm missing here or any other (elegant, simple) way to print the contents of a JEditorPane, please speak up!

    Since you have 'printable' as one of your flavors, try this using a JTextPane (assuming you can dump your HTML into a JTextPane, which shouldn't be a big problem)...
    1. Have your JTextPane implement Printable
    ie. something like this:
    public class FormattedDocument extends JTextPane implements Printable 2. Read your HTML into the associated doc in the text pane.
    3. Implement the printable interface, since you have it as one of your available flavors (I'd imagine everybody has printable in their available flavors). Something like this:
    public int print(Graphics g, PageFormat pf, int pageIndex) {
            Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;
            g2.translate((int)pf.getImageableX(), (int)pf.getImageableY());
            g2.setClip(0, 0, (int)pf.getImageableWidth(), (int)pf.getImageableHeight()); 
            if (pageIndex == 0)
                setupPrintView(pf);
            if (!pv.paintPage(g2, pageIndex))
                return NO_SUCH_PAGE;
            return PAGE_EXISTS;
        }Here's my setupPrintView function, which is executed once on page 0 (which still needs some polishing in case I want to start from page 5). It sets up a 'print view' class based on the root view of the document. PrintView class follows...
    public void setupPrintView(PageFormat pf) {
    View root = this.getUI().getRootView(this);
            pv = new PrintView(this.getStyledDocument().getDefaultRootElement(), root,
                               (int)pf.getImageableWidth(), (int)pf.getImageableHeight());Note of obvious: 'pv' is of type PrintView.
    Here's my PrintView class that paints your text pane line by line, a page at a time, until there is no more.
    class PrintView extends BoxView
        public PrintView(Element elem, View root, int w, int h) {
            super(elem, Y_AXIS);
            setParent(root);
            setSize(w, h);
            layout(w, h);
        public boolean paintPage(Graphics2D g2, int pageIndex) {
            int viewIndex = getTopOfViewIndex(pageIndex);
            if (viewIndex == -1) return false;
            int maxY = getHeight();
            Rectangle rc = new Rectangle();
            int fillCounter = 0;
            int Ytotal = 0;
            for (int k = viewIndex; k < getViewCount(); k++) {
                rc.x = 0;
                rc.y = Ytotal;
                rc.width = getSpan(X_AXIS, k);
                rc.height = getSpan(Y_AXIS, k);
                if (Ytotal + getSpan(Y_AXIS, k) > maxY) break;
                paintChild(g2, rc, k);
                Ytotal += getSpan(Y_AXIS, k);
            return true;
    // find top of page for a given page number
        private int getTopOfViewIndex(int pageNumber) {
            int pageHeight = getHeight() * pageNumber;
            for (int k = 0; k < getViewCount(); k++)
                if (getOffset(Y_AXIS, k) >= pageHeight) return k;
            return -1;
    }That's my 2 cents. Any questions?

  • Regular expressions with java.util.regex

    Hello Guys,
    I wrote last time this
    * Uses split to break up a string of input separated by
    * commas and/or whitespace.
    * See: http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/releases/1.4regex/
    * Change: I have slightly modified the source
    import java.util.regex.*;
    public class Splitter {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    // Create a pattern to match breaks
    Pattern p = Pattern.compile("[<>\\s]+");
    // Split input with the pattern
    String[] result =
    p.split("<element attributname1 = \"attributwert1\" attributname2 = \"attributwert2\">");
    for (int i=0; i<result.length; i++)
    if (result.equals(""))
    System.out.println("EMPTY");
    else
    System.out.println(result[i]);
    int res = result.length - 1;
    System.out.println("\nStringlaenge: " + res);
    I wonder, why I got an empty element in reult[0]. Have anyone an idea?
    We'll come together next time
