Replace grouped window task icon from java coffee cup with customised icon

I have an application that a child JFrame instance can be triggered from the main JFrame instance. In that case, these JFrames are collapsed under one group icon on my task bar in windows, which is the java coffee cup icon with tooltip of Java(TM) Platform. When i expand the list, each individual JFrame still has the right personised icon. Can anyone suggest how do I customised the group icon to be my own icon and have personised tooltip? Thanks in advance.

  • How can I remove or replace the " Java coffee cup " icon ???

    I'd like to ask everybody some questions about the " Java coffee cup " icon
    doesn't JToolbar be able to pull out of Frame?
    but the JToolbar which was pulled out would have a little Java coffee cup icon
    just like JOptionPane,JDailog or JFrame.
    Is there any solution to remove this icon??
    equally....
    How can I remove or replace the little Java coffee cup icon of the title in
    JDialog or JOptionPane??
    Taking JFrame for instance, if I use "this.setIconImage(xxxxxxx);" then I can
    change the little Java coffee cup icon.
    but it seemed invalid to use it in JDialog.
    How can I solve it in JToorbar,JDailog and JOptionPane ???
    my e-mail : [email protected]

    this seems to be to most asked question at least in this forum.... only topped by the question about 'how to make an exe out of java apps' in the Java Programming Forum.
    Sorry, but is there anybody who has noticed those useful textboxes where it says 'Search'? I mean before there were computers one had to go to a library, ask somebody or perform extensive research until answers were found. Or one had to buy books only to find out the the other book he though about buying would have been better.
    Nowadays, simply type somthing like 'coffe cup' into a place where it is possible to do so and click into a region where it says 'Search' somewhere. Not even necessary to go to a froum like this and swamp it with the one trillionth version of this question, almost any search box might bring an answer (let it be right or not..).
    Although I have to admit that this instance is the most prosaic and least understandable one I have seen for long...
    Again sorry but I had to say that.

  • Calling windows dll's from Java

  • App will not download to iPad when purchased from App Store - stuck with Cloud icon

    Device : iPad Air 32gb wi-fi model (not cellular data)
    OS version : 7.1.1 (up to date)
    Location : UK
    Problem : App will not download to iPad when purchased from App Store - stuck with Cloud icon
    Last night I tried to download an app over wi-fi onto my iPad Air, but the app did not install.
    I have plenty of space (the app is 24.1mb, I have 3.4gb free space) and there are no restrictions whatsoever on my iPad - no blocks on App store purchases, no age-related restrictions, no country restrictions etc.
    Normally from the App Store page you would tap the price (in this case the app was free), enter your iTunes password, and the app would download.
    Also a new icon appears on the home screen and a circle shows the progress of the download.
    However this did not happen.
    Instead I have the Cloud icon (the one that shows when you have bought an app but it is not currently installed on your device) and a message that says "You've already purchased this, so it will be downloaded now at no additional cost".
    If I press OK I am then prompted to enter my iTunes password, the Cloud symbol briefly changes to a circle (and I mean for a split-second, like the blink of an eye) and then the Cloud symbol appears again.
    The app does not download - in fact it does not even *attempt* to download.
    I have tried this >20 times now and it always occurs excatly like this.
    After Googling this problem (which seems common) and reading over a dozen threads on this forum plus Apple's own official support pages, this is what I've tried:
    I can re-download other apps that I have previously purchased on this iPad, with no problems.
    I purchased another app on my iPhone 5 and was then able to download onto my iPad with no problems.
    I have reset my iPad >5 times - both by pressing/holding the home/power buttons, and also a full switch off and restart.
    I have logged out of my iTunes account on the iPad, and logged back in.
    The wi-fi is Virgin Media fibre optic broadband with a verified speed of 20 meg (confirmed by Speedtest) plus an 802.11-n Belkin router and my iPad will happily load web pages, stream videos on YouTube, download other apps etc.
    I have reset/rebooted my internet connection
    In an attempt to eliminate by broadband connection from the possible causes, I have switched off my router, linked my iPad to the hotspot feature on my iPhone and tried to download the app over cellular data, but still cannot download the app.
    I have tried on 2 other wi-fi networks but still cannot download this one app.
    My iTunes account has a cerdit balance from an iTunes card, but the app was free anyway
    Nothing I try will download the app in question.
    The app is iPad only, so I cannot install on my iPhone to try and kick-start the process.
    I guess I could install the app on my computer and then sync the iPad, but that's *working around* the problem - it's not *fixing* the problem.
    (Since getting the iPad I use almost never use my computer. And anyway what if I did not have a computer? Didn't iOS go "PC-free" with version 5?)
    I would like to call Apple but my 90-day telephone support has expired (the iPad is around 6 months old) and I don't want to buy Apple Care for this one problem.
    I can't make it to an Apple Store to speak to a Genius.
    Bearing in mind the list of things I've already tried, what do I do next?
    Thanks in advance for any support.

    Hi there.
    Thank you very much for your quick reply, it's really appreciated.
    No need to apologize, I actually found the phrase "If your iPad ever craps the bed" amusing under the circumstances
    I checked the list of installed apps like you suggested (Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Show all apps) but this problem app is not in the list. I have also swiped down on the home screen to search for it, but again it does not show.
    While it has not let me download the app (and I just tried it again) it has helped me to eliminate a few things from the list of what to try, and I can definitely conclude that it has not downloaded.
    I guess I need to fire up my PC and download it / sync my iPad.
    Thanks again for your help

  • Closing a running windows XP program from java

    Hello,
    Im currently making a program in java under sdk 1.4.0_01 and i want to be able to close a program which is already running in windows(Emule).
    Is this possible?
    I know how to run it using: Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec ("mulePath");
    ...but i dont know how to close it unless ive already run it from java.
    Any help appreciated!

  • Setting windows environment variables from Java program

    Is there any way to set environment variables from Java program in Windows? Any help is appreciated.
    Here is my situation:
    I need to decrypt an encrypted Oracle user password in a batch file which will be used while running a sql script with sqlplus. I was planning to have bat file which will call a Java program decrypt the password and set it as an env variable in windows which will be available while calling sqlplus.
    thanks

    Runtime.exec has a lot of overloadings. Two of them
    allows you to specify the environment variables.
    exec
    public Process exec(String[] cmdarray,
    String[] envp,
    File dir)
    throws IOExceptionExecutes the specified command and
    arguments in a separate process with the specified
    environment and working directory.
    cmdarray - array containing the command to call and
    its arguments.
    envp - array of strings, each element of which has
    environment variable settings in format name=value.
    dir - the working directory of the subprocess, or null
    if the subprocess should inherit the working directory
    of the current process.
    I had this sample program:
    public class SetVarExample {
    public static void main (String[] args) throws Exception {
         String[] cmd_env= new String[] {"password="+"ABCD","Path=C:\\Sun\\AppServer\\jdk\\bin"};
         String cmd = "cmd /c SET ";
         Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd,cmd_env);
    System.out.println( "Finish ...." );
    I tried it in a command prompt. But looks like when the program exits, it's a whole new process and so it does not retain the env variables set in the java program.
    Any suggestions? Am I doing it worng?
    thanks

  • Call from Java Plsql Procedure with VArray as Out Parameter

    Hi,
    I have a Java web application(Tomcat server) that call a plsql procedure with Varray as OUT parameter.

  • Java coffee cup but no action

    Hi there
    When I go to web sites that require Java I get a picture of a coffee cup and some arrows going around it but nothing happens....there is no download.
    Any advice on how to get past this?
    Many thanks
    Colin, on Fathers Day, from Sydney.

    Ok. I've been living with this problem for a couple of months and decided to fix it tonight.
    It took about an hour and a half in my case (lots of pref files!).
    I found the following MacFixit tutorials concerning this subject:
    http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20060123081353849
    http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20060123081353849
    The second link covers the method that worked for me: Create a New User Account.
    I moved my user library folder to the desktop and logged out. This created a new user library folder. I then moved my folders back one by one and logged out, After logging back in I would open Safari to the following link which lets you test if java is working.:
    http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml
    I narrowed the folders down to the Preferences Folder.
    I then moved the prefs back by group ( files starting with the letter A to E, and so on....) and logged out and then logged back and tried the java test site.
    You may wish to start with the com.apple. files.
    My problem was the file called "com.apple.LaunchServices.plist".
    It's great to have java working with Safari. Firefox is nice but I prefer Safari with it's .Mac syncronization and keychain support.
    Good luck!

  • How to close a windows in uix from java

    What is the best way to exit a uix application gracefully?
    I have a uix page with a logon and a close option. Right now the close button triggers an event to call a java method to do a system.exit() which exits the application but leaves the browser window open with a no page to display message.
    I would like to close the browser window first and then exit the application.
    Thanks, Steve

    It can't be done from the server. The only way to programatically close a window is with client-side Javascript.

  • In Firefox4, can I lose the folder icons from the Bookmarks Bar while keeping icons everywhere else (because the folder icons are superfluous and extend the horizontal list of bookmark folders beyond the width of the window)?

    I've just installed Firefox4 for Mac (OS 10.6.7) and can no longer see all my bookmark folders at once across the top -- because the folder icons make the Bookmarks Bar too wide. Yet, I like the icons on the other bars, so I don't want to turn them off globally. Is there a way to just lose the folder icons -- which don't appear to serve a purpose anyway?

    Small correction to original post. Machine is an iMac 2.4ghz Intel Core 2 Duo. (I was at home when I made the first post.) But the bookmarks menu behavior still exists today and FF 5 is essentially unusable.
    System details next to the post are not for machine with the bug in question.
    Found a copy of FF4 to use until a solution is found. Turned off automatic updates to preserve this version.

  • How to go to finder from blank grey screen with apple icon and spinning gear

    My Mac desktop won't start up,  it showed blank grey screen with an apple icon and spinning gear for ages. Due my computer is vintage so I would need to backup my user files before I could re-install OS X via NetBoot. My question is how can I access to the finder to back up my user folder from the grey screen.  Thanks

    Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
    To restart an unresponsive computer, press and hold the power button for a few seconds until the power shuts off, then release, wait a few more seconds, and press it again briefly.
    Step 1
    The first step in dealing with a startup failure is to secure the data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since the last backup, you can skip this step.
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to start. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
    a. Start up from the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.” The article refers to starting up from a DVD, but the procedure in Recovery mode is the same. You don't need a DVD if you're running OS X 10.7 or later.
    b. If Step 1a fails because of disk errors, and no other Mac is available, then you may be able to salvage some of your files by copying them in the Finder. If you already have an external drive with OS X installed, start up from it. Otherwise, if you have Internet access, follow the instructions on this page to prepare the external drive and install OS X on it. You'll use the Recovery installer, rather than downloading it from the App Store.
    c. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, start the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    d. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
    Step 2
    If the startup process stops at a blank gray screen with no Apple logo or spinning "daisy wheel," then the startup volume may be full. If you had previously seen warnings of low disk space, this is almost certainly the case. You might be able to start up in safe mode even though you can't start up normally. Otherwise, start up from an external drive, or else use the technique in Step 1b, 1c, or 1d to mount the internal drive and delete some files. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation.
    Step 3
    Sometimes a startup failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
    Step 4
    If you use a wireless keyboard, trackpad, or mouse, replace or recharge the batteries. The battery level shown in the Bluetooth menu item may not be accurate.
    Step 5
    If there's a built-in optical drive, a disc may be stuck in it. Follow these instructions to eject it.
    Step 6
    Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to start up, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can start up now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
    Step 7
    If you've started from an external storage device, make sure that the internal startup volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
    Start up in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know the login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    When you start up in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, the startup volume is corrupt and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to Step 11. If you ever have another problem with the drive, replace it immediately.
    If you can start and log in in safe mode, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
    If the startup process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
    Step 8
    Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see Step 1.) Select the startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
    This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then restart as usual.
    Step 9
    If the startup device is an aftermarket SSD, it may need a firmware update and/or a forced "garbage collection." Instructions for doing this with a Crucial-branded SSD were posted here. Some of those instructions may apply to other brands of SSD, but you should check with the vendor's tech support.  
    Step 10
    Reinstall the OS. If the Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    Step 11
    Do as in Step 9, but this time erase the startup volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically restart into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer the data from a Time Machine or other backup.
    Step 12
    This step applies only to models that have a logic-board ("PRAM") battery: all Mac Pro's and some others (not current models.) Both desktop and portable Macs used to have such a battery. The logic-board battery, if there is one, is separate from the main battery of a portable. A dead logic-board battery can cause a startup failure. Typically the failure will be preceded by loss of the settings for the startup disk and system clock. See the user manual for replacement instructions. You may have to take the machine to a service provider to have the battery replaced.
    Step 13
    If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.

  • How can I import/restore bookmarks to firefox from another computer/browser with bookmark icons included?

    When you import bookmarks from Firefox or another browser into Firefox in a separate computer the bookmarks get imported fine, however their icons get disappeared. You have to click on every single bookmark in order to load its corresponding icon!
    Note: The Google Chrome does not have this issue. The bookmark and their icons get imported to Chrome without further clicking on the imported bookmarks.

    You would have to copy the places.sqlite file or possibly import an HTML backup (bookmarks.html) to get the favicons.
    A JSON backup doesn't include the favicons, so in that case you need to visit each bookmarked site.
