Question about Sun's Processors

Hello everyone!. Mi name is Gus, and I'm writing from Argentina. I am currently studing Information Technology at the University of Buenos Aires, and I'm doing a research on processors, so I would need a list of all the processors that were manufactured by Sun and their characteristics. Could anyone give me a hint on where I could find this info?
Thank you very much!

A question about WLAN and processor speed

Hi there! i'm looking at replacing my "old" Nokia E5-00. I'm thinking of the newer Nokia E6 or the Samsung Galaxy Pro B7510 Android QWERTY phone.
My stupid question is will a faster processor be of any help when it comes to opening/closing/downloading of apps?
WIll a faster HSDPA and HSUPA capability mean that if if you want to make your phone as a wifi hotspot (via an app or via a built-in feature) is it an advantage?*
* like comparing the 3 phones i mentioned.
I just want to ask about your take on this one .
Please help....

A faster processor surely helps in a faster and quicker operations and multi-tasking but it depends upon the OS it runs. Android and Symbian are entirely different in application handling. Symbian doesn't need a high spec processor like Android devices. HSDPA and UPA are more iclined towards your operator, if your network service provider supports HSDPA&UPA and your phone too support it works well for Wi-fi tethering.

Question about Sun Java Calendar Server 7

You downloadable forum, at [http://www.sun.com/software/products/calendar_srvr/get_it.jsp|http://www.sun.com/software/products/calendar_srvr/get_it.jsp],
leaves one with two questions.
-What databases are needed/supported by this MessageBoard System for backend storage?
-What are the licensing details? May the MessageBoard/Communications Suite 7
be installed and used in a commercial environment, free?
-May Sun Java Calendar Server 7 be downloaded without the Communications suite?
-Can it be run off an Apache Tomcat Server with J2SE,J2EE codebases?

Although... at the top of this forum it says
This is a forum for new Java developers to get acquainted with the technologies and tools associated with the Java Platform.It doesn't actually say anything about programming, not there nor in what follows. So it isn't surprising that the OP thought this was a suitable forum to ask about that server, which looks as if it might be a "tool associated with the Java platform".

Some general questions about Sun Java Communications Suite

Hello Everybody,
We are a small group of individuals (2 Java developers and 1 Linux expert and Web Application developer), located in Germany.
We are fully new to �Solaris� and Sun Java Communications Suite and know, that it�s a highly professional software system for large scale deployment. However we plan to install (64 Bit version) and manage it in a small network environment, consisting of a Server (4 GB RAM, RAID 5, AMD Dual CPU) based on Solaris 10 (X86) and *20* clients based on Win XP, Solaris and Linux.
It�s a network of a non-profit organization, providing social services to local society.
At clients we will use the Communications Express and the needed services are: Calander, Mail and Address book. (no need of Outlook Connector, Instant Messaging, Document Management, etc.)
Our long-term aim is - after learning of professional architecting, deployment and management of Communications Suite - to provide integration and development services to organizations (schools and small / medium sized Business) and public in cooperation with ISP or infrastructure-providers like Sun Microsystems.
Now, our main questions are:
*1.-* Is the Server phy. recourse enough to deliver the mentioned services of Communication Suite to 20 clients without problems?
*2.-* Isn�t Communications Suite oversized for such small network mentioned above or better, if we use another collaboration software system like Opengroupeware (http://opengroupware.org/) ? Opengroupeware is developed using non-java lang and therefore doesn�t match our strategy.
*3.-* Does the Communications Suite download-pack includes all necessary components of Sun Java ES (Directory Server, Access Manager, etc.) or these components are to be downloaded separately?
*4.-* What is the difference between the Sun Java System Messaging Server and the Sun Java System Message Queue?
We appropriate very much your answers and any further useful information regarding our project.
Thanks
Asghar

1> I believe your hardware can support 20 users (you might need to tune the Web Server heap size) - I had a Sparc 2x450mhz w/ 2GB of ram supporting 50+ users quite comfortably - with roughly half using POP and the other half IMAP/webmail. Ideally though, for best performance you would want to break up the main servers (LDAP, WEB, and MS) between hosts) - probably not necessary for 20 users. Having all on one machine simplifies things too (but also makes it a single-point-of-failure). Your disk obviously is important, the faster the better - that it's redundant is also nice - larger deployments might use much fancier storage systems to provide speed and redundancy, and use an the App Server instead of the Web Server as a container for Comms Express.
2> I don't think it's "oversized" - might you mean overkill? In this case I don't think overkill is a bad thing. Why not have very capable software, even if you don't really need it -is how I see things.
3> I believe you get all you need in the download. Though I've never tried the 64bit version (which I am guessing is only really necessary for larger deployments where you want to obtain maximized performance for heavier loads). I recommend following the single host evaluation document to get the hang of the install.
4> I'm not sure - though the Messaging install I believe requires the MQueue stuff, I think it's sort of an API for messaging, also available separately, but used by JES Messaging system?
Good Luck,

Some Questions about Sun Java Studio Creator IDE

I am quiet new to the IDE, but I experienced some
behaviours I do not actually understand.
I hope I can get some help here.
Sun Java Studio Creator Update 9
Each time I change the font size and type using the
"Advanced" option of the IDE the font I changed correctly.
But after closing and restarting the IDE the fonts are set
back to the default undoing my changes.
Is there a way to use code completion for the jsf tags within jsps ?
I know that there are code clips for adding jsf components to the jsp,
but (coming from eclipse ide) I'd appreciate a feature like the code completion for the jsf components. If there is a way by configuring, how can that be acchieved ?
Trying to add a "taglib declaration" to the jsp e.g. "<%@taglib uri="..." prefix="..." I get the warning that the tags of the xml must be welformed.
How can I add those taglib declarations correctly ?
Using the "File System View" after each change made e.g. to a jsp the
tree collapses and I have to navigate to the tree again to find my resources.
Is this common behaviour or to be configured ?
Thx for any support.

Hi,
1. The changes made to the font size and type are indeed getting reset in Creator update 9. However this behaviour is not seen in the latest version of Creator which is Creator 2 EA 2. The final version of this will be available very soon and we encourage you to try the new release which has lot more features and lot of bug fixes. For more details please visit:
http://developers.sun.com/prodtech/javatools/jscreator/ea/jsc2/
The following thread will explain about the tags and how they should be well formed:
http://swforum.sun.com/jive/thread.jspa?forumID=123&threadID=47615
The behaviour of the File System View was encountered in Creator update 9 as you have mentioned. Once again this behaviour was not see in the latest version Creator 2 EA 2.
So we recommend you to try out the latest version.
We appreciate your valuable feedback and thank you for the same.
Cheers

Hi all,
I have a Sun Sparc T5220 server with solaris 10 attached to another sun solaris server through its SER port. I can manage the T5220 server by the command "tip" from the other server. There is not any display device attached to the T5220. I would like to know if there is any way i can manage the T5220 server through GUI? is VNC possible?
Thank you!

TrackControl, Change Track, and others questions about AvTransmit

Hi there,
I've got multiples questions about JMF and AvTransmit, hope you will help
For a small student project, i'm developing a streaming server using JMF, i have used the AvTransmit example.
Streaming, etc... everything work fine, i stream music over web
But i need help with "playlist" :
// Get the tracks from the processor
TrackControl[] tracks = processor.getTrackControls();
First Question :
The Processor use a MediaLocator to get one track, is there a way to indicate multiples tracks, such as a directory containing multiples audio file ?
At this time, i can only set 1 file in the MediaLocator.
I'm using a simple class as Playlist (a File[]), and, when i want to change song, i stop the thread, change the MediaLocator with another file, and restart the thread.
It works on a Lan, but on Internet, Player (I use VLC for my test) lost the connection, i need to restart VLC to get audio again.
Second Question
Is there a more "elegant" way to change tracks ?
Last Question
I have think about building my own object Playlist... gasp...
I've look at the javadoc... but i'm a bit lost... does my class have to implement TrackControl ? what are the object inside etc...
If someone knows information about this...
That's all ;)
Thanks !
Tommy, french student (sorry for the english)

First Question :
The Processor use a MediaLocator to get one track, is there a way to indicate multiples tracks, such as a directory containing multiples audio file ?
At this time, i can only set 1 file in the MediaLocator.No. The processor uses a MediaLocator to get one file. Files (can) contain multiple tracks.
You can, in fact, combine the tracks of multiple files together, but, there's no need to do that with your application. AVTransmit2 sends each track as a separate RTP stream, so you'd just be sticking them together just to pull them apart again.
In general, you want to keep your architecture as one processor per file, one RTP stream per track.
Second Question
Is there a more "elegant" way to change tracks ?Yes. It's what I refer to as a jukebox DataSource. I discuss it / explain the concept on this previous thread.
[http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=28&threadID=5400318]
What you're essentially doing when you change the MediaLocator is starting over from scratch. You end up with a whole new DataSource, whole new Processor, whole new RTP session. On the LAN, this isn't an issue because it looks like you paused the RTP session (because the IP/PORTs don't change).
Over the internet, though, when you stop sending and restart, you're very likely going to get a new public NAT port. And so when your stream gets to the client, it's going to look like it's from a different person than the original.
The solution is to use the jukebox datasource to change the media without restarting the Processor or the RTP streams. That'll ensure that your stream won't move between files from the perspective of the client...
Last Question
I have think about building my own object Playlist... gasp...
I've look at the javadoc... but i'm a bit lost... does my class have to implement TrackControl ? what are the object inside etc...
If someone knows information about this...Ummmm, your "Playlist" object should just be a Jukebox datasource, so follow the link and figure out how that's supposed to work. If you have questions about it, just ask 'em here (rather than on the older thread)...

I have a Macbook Pro june 2011... I have 8GB ram but I only have 256mb VRAM... I've read some other questions about this and I realized... Why do I not have 560mb of VRAM since I have 8GB of RAM? Is there any way to get more VRAM to play games on steam?

I have a Macbook Pro june 2011... I have 8GB ram but I only have 256mb VRAM...
I've read some other questions about this and I realized... Why do I not have 560mb of VRAM since I have 8GB of RAM?
Is there any way to get more VRAM to play games on steam?
I've learned by reading other topics that I can't upgrade my graphics card on my Macbook Pro because it's soldered into the motherboard or somthing like that, but please tell me if there is any way to get more video ram by chaning some setting or upgrading something else. I'd also like to know why I only have 256MB of VRAM when I have 8GB of RAM, since I have 8GB of RAM I thought I was supposed to have 560mb of VRAM...
So the two questions are...
Is there any way to upgrade my VRAM, so that I can play games on steam?
Why do I only have 256MB VRAM when I have 8GB total RAM?
Other Info:
I have a quad core i7 Processor.
My graphcics card is the AMD Radeon HD 6490M.
I am also trying to play games on my BOOTCAMPed side of my mac, or my Windows 7 Professional side.
THANK YOU SO MUCH IF YOU CAN REPLY,
Dylan

The only two items that a user can change on a MBP are the RAM and HDD (Retinas not included). You have what the unit came with and the only way you will be able to change that is to purchase a MBP with superior graphics
If you are very much into gaming, the I suggest A PC. They are far superior for that type of application to a MBP.
Ciao.

Question about Video Cards on Laptops

Hi everyone, and sorry if I post this in the wrong area. I own a few computers, some are consider ancient and others are somewhat old but can run Windows XP just fine. I have a question about the computers in the stores today.
I am looking to invest in a new laptop, possibly a desktop in the near future depending on my budget. The question I have about video cards today is that, I enjoy a good MMO game now and then, I don't expect to play heavy intensive games, just maybe some more advance games. I notice that for one game that I want to play, it requires a video card to have (Shadow Rendering, Vertex and Pixle Shaders). Do the computers today have those as standard for thier video card? Or do I have to invest in a little bit more expensive laptop/desktop. I am willing to invest money for some more RAM, if I need to improve its preformance. The reason I ask is because I have a 4 year old Laptop with a broken keyboard, and I was thinking about just replacing the laptop with a newer one. it has some pretty good specs and runs everything fine, but it can not play certain games because of those missing video requirements. (Current laptop incase someone is curious: 1.5Ghz Celeron M, 1GB memory 64MB video (Shared) ) Thanks to anyone who has the answer to this question. (P.S sorry if everything is scrunched together. for some reason the formatting is wierd on Opera web browser

Graphics cards have all those standard today... or at least they should unless you get a really cheap Graphics card. The kind of graphics card and processor and other specs of the computer you want to get should depend on what you want to do with it. It also depends on the kind of games you want to play. If you're playing FPS [first person shooter] then you need a really good graphics card and processor. If you're playing something like Diablo 2 or something that's on the lower end of graphics then you just need decent specs. Graphics cards, I suggest something with aGeForce Nividia card... as of today, they are in the 9 series for high-end cards I believe. For processors... get something like Intel Core 2 Duo T9500 or T9600 or the Core 2 Quatros or Extremes. Extremes are intended for hardcore gaming and would be more expensive. For RAM you should have at least 2GB... you can always upgrade that later.
For laptops my suggestions are:
$3k+ get a customized alienware
$2-3 get a customized dell xps, or macbook pro [although if you're gaming i would suggest you dual boot with windows xp or vista]
$1-2k get a cheaper customized dell, or sony vaio
under $1k... well I don't know what to say... you can't really get a nice gaming computer for under that price.
I personally DO NOT like HP computers at all because they are so quirky and have so many problems and break down easily.

A question about design of Java Application on java card.

Hi every one,
I have a question about design of Java applet on java card,
There is an application on my card that it is not java card, it include a DF and some EF under DF, I would like to know if I want to have this application on java card ,how can I design DF and EF on java card ,I mean is there any relation between DF,EF with applet and file? for example can I say DF is same as applet and EF is same as file?
I'll appreciate for any help .
yours sincerely,
orchid

hi
you can write a java class for DF.
an instance of DF class have some EF objects.
for example,
samples/com/sun/javacard/samples/JavaPurse/CyclicFile.java
implements ISO 7816 CyclicFile ( EF )

Question about size of ints in Xcode

Hello. I have a a few quick questions about declaring and defining variables and about their size and so forth. The book I'm reading at the moment, "Learn C on the Mac", says the following in reference to the difference between declaring and defining a variable:
A variable declaration is any statement that specifies a variables name and type. The line *int myInt;* certainly does that. A variable definition is a declaration that causes memory to be allocated for the variable. Since the previous statement does cause memory to be allocated for myInt, it does qualify as a definition.
I always thought a definition of a variable was a statement that assigned a value to a variable. If a basic declaration like "int myInt;" does allocate memory for the variable and therefore is a definition, can anyone give me an example of a declaration that does not allocate memory for the variable and therefore is not a definition?
The book goes on, a page or so late, to say this:
Since myInt was declared to be of type int, and since Xcode is currently set to use 4-byte ints, 4 bytes of memory were reserved for myInt. Since we haven't placed a value in those 4 bytes yet, they could contain any value at all. Some compilers place a value of 0 in a newly allocated variable, but others do not. The key is not to depend on a variable being preset to some specific value. If you want a variable to contain a specific value, assign the value to the variable yourself.
First, I know that an int can be different sizes (either 4 bytes or 8 bytes, I think), but what does this depend on? I thought it depended on the compiler, but the above quote makes it sound like it depends on the IDE, Xcode. Which is it?
Second, it said that Xcode is currently set to use 4-byte ints. Does this mean that there is a setting that the user can change to make ints a different size (like 8 bytes), or does it mean that the creators of Xcode currently have it set to use 4-byte ints?
Third, for the part about some compilers giving a newly allocated variable a value of 0, does this apply to Xcode or any of its compilers? I assume not, but I wanted to check.
Thanks for all the help, and have a great weekend!

I always like to think of a "declaration" to be something that makes no changes to the actual code, but just provides visibility so that compilation and/or linking will succeed. The "definition" allocates space.
You can declare a function to establish it in the namespace for the compiler to find but the linker needs an actual definition somewhere to link against. With a variable, you could also declare a variable as "extern int myvar;". The actual definition "int myvar;" would be somewhere else.
According to that book, both "extern int myvar;" and "int myvar;" are declarations, but only the latter is a definition. That is a valid way to look at it. Both statements 'delcare' something to the compiler, but on the second one 'define's some actual data.
First, I know that an int can be different sizes (either 4 bytes or 8 bytes, I think), but what does this depend on? I thought it depended on the compiler, but the above quote makes it sound like it depends on the IDE, Xcode. Which is it?
An "int" is supposed to be a processor's "native" size and the most efficient data type to use. A compiler may or may not be able to change that, depending on the target and the compiler. If a compiler supports that option and Xcode supports that compiler and that option, then Xcode can control it, via the compiler.
Second, it said that Xcode is currently set to use 4-byte ints. Does this mean that there is a setting that the user can change to make ints a different size (like 8 bytes), or does it mean that the creators of Xcode currently have it set to use 4-byte ints?
I think that "setting" is just not specifying any option to explicitly set the size. You can use "-m32" or "-m64" to control this, but I wouldn't recommend it. Let Xcode handle those low-level details.
Third, for the part about some compilers giving a newly allocated variable a value of 0, does this apply to Xcode or any of its compilers? I assume not, but I wanted to check.
I don't know for sure. Why would you ask? Are you thinking of including 45 lines of macro declarations 3 levels deep to initialize values based on whether or not a particular compiler/target supports automatic initialization? Xcode current supports GCC 3.3, GCC 4.0, GCC 4.2, LLVM GCC, CLang, and Intel's compiler for building PPC, i386, and x86_64 code in both debug and release, with a large number of optimization options. It doesn't matter what compiler you use or what it's behavior is - initialize your variables in C.

Hi, I have quick question about use of USEBEAN tag in SP2. When I specify a scope of SESSION for the java bean, it does not keep the values that I set for variable in the bean persistent.Thanks,Sonny

Make sure that your bean is implementing the serializable interface and that
you are accessing the bean from the session with the same name.
