Retrieving specific information from a website

Ok, here's my problem. I want to display the current weather conditions on my site. Just the text for now, dont need pictures or anything. But i have absolutely no idea how i would retrieve the webpage and then take only the part i need (the weather) and display that.
I figure regular expressions are needed, but any hints or if anyone has done it would help alot.

Regex might work, but it would depend on what format the page you're grabbing from takes, what changes frequently, what doesn't. You'd have to learn regex (http://www.regular-expressions.info/) and then apply that to the specific format of the string that you get when you grab the page.
Regex is probably not a very well-suited solution though.
A better solution might be to see if you can download a Java HTML parser. I'd assume there are some out there at sourceforge, apache, midprod, etc.
A better solution still would be to find a service that gives the data you want without all the frou-frou web page stuff that gets added for human consumption. It might be in XML format (in which case you could use jdom or something to extract the pieces you want) or it might be whatever. The main point being that it would be intended for use by software, not people. Google is your friend here.

    Don,
    Ok but if I was to model a real restaurant, I would then have a head chef
    that can then delegate to other chefs. This head chef would have the
    additional task of coordinating the completion of subservient chefs. This
    does not and would not mean that the head chef is stuck (or partitioned) in
    one part of the kitchen. Further a head chef would most likely also be a
    chef so that he would be running around the kitchen using and interacting
    with different objects to get his part of the recipe completed. Then once
    all chefs have completed their part of the recipe the head chef could return
    the meal.
    I would also point out that it does not make sense to me to be talking about
    the chef and its ability to scale. I would look that the resource limited
    devices that must be used to prepare meals to see scalability. In this case
    the grill, the stove and the microwave. Scalability of the restaurant is a
    function of the amount of resource limited devices versus the number of
    process (i.e. chefs) that need to use those devices concurrently and the
    amount of time they require access to those devices. By talking about chefs
    as if they are the scalability limiting factor seems to bring us back to the
    notion that the chef is a manager object that is shared. And again I come
    back to the question, why?
    You may now think that in a real restaurant, there are only so many chefs so
    why not make it a shared service? Well in a real restaurant there are only
    so many of any object, but this is not a consideration in our restaurant
    model. In our "virtual" restaurant hiring a chef is as easy as:
    Chef = new;
    And of course chefs are of zero mass so there can be a whole lot in the
    kitchen. Now assuming the Grill, Stove and Microwave map to physical
    objects in our computing environment, then that is the limiting factor and
    are therefore partitioned. Whenever communication has to go through a
    single source, then scalability breaks down. I fear that too many people
    make shared objects and create communication bottlenecks where they simply
    don't exist. The only place your scalability bottlenecks should exist is in
    the actual resource limited objects of your computing environment. Simply
    said, if something isn't a resource limited object, then why is it shared?
    If anyone is not clear how to architect an application independently of the
    business model, then I would suggest looking at various framework products
    and reading some technical architecture white papers to get a different, and
    possibly enlightening, point of view.

    Mark,
    First, I completely agree about the naming. I purposely used rather
    euphamistic names for these "managers", since I see many convoluted names
    for common things in various applications. But that is a topic for another
    thread...
    Simply because there is a "manager" of some type, does not imply that it is
    chained to a particular duty. However, let's look at a real life case. In
    a large restaurant, you would rarely see a chef chopping carrots or serving
    dishes to customers. Those are the responsibilities of the sous-chef and
    the waiter. So, we see that the chef does not really follow the food
    around. Why not? Because it simply doesn't scale. When scalability isn't
    a problem, (the restaurant isn't that popular, for example) the chef has
    some lattitude to accept more responsibility, and might even get involved
    with purchasing, etc.
    In the real world, the more scalable something has to be, the narrower the
    responsibilities are for each of the participating members.

    Don,
    One thing that always baffles me is when should an Object get the moniker
    "Manager." This practice seems to tell me a couple of things about these
    objects. In general when someone makes reference to a "Manager" objectthat
    it is probably a service object and probably contains no or very little
    attribution. The question is why? If I am developing an object model why
    am I thinking about such implementation issues.
    Surely if you are trying to model cooking an egg I would not see
    "SustenancePreparationManager" in your model. Using a more common term I
    would still be alarmed to see "CookManager" in your model. What does the
    CookManager manage? Does it manage other cooks or eggs. Maybe it shouldbe
    called an EggManager, but that doesn't make sense. How about just Cook.
    There that seems like the real world. And this brings me to a problem in
    the analogy. Conjuring up managers in a model can sometimes make you missa
    container. For example, I would say that if we wanted to model the real
    world, then eggs is a specialization of ingredient that is contained by
    recipe that can be given to a cook to be prepared.
    I may have many cooks (objects) that can prepare recipes and my application
    architecture not the object model needs to deal with how to best let those
    cooks utilize the grill, stove and microwave that sits on different
    partitions on my server. My cooks can move around and when they do they
    take their ability to know how to cook with them. In the real world Iwould
    expect a cook to use the right appliance to prepare the recipe based on its
    contents. I would not chain every cook to its appliance and them make me
    responsible for giving the right cook the right recipe. This is what
    managers can cause. They cause the consumer of cooks to know which cookcan
    prepare what recipes based on where they are chained. This then makes me
    know something about cooking. And if I don't know anything about cooking I
    can only image what my egg would look like if I accidentally gave therecipe
    to the cook stationed at the microwave.
    Ok Ok, I have seen many architectures use facades to hide the fact that I
    like to chain my cooks to their appliance. But what is that. I have gone
    to restaurants and I don't know what a cook facade is. If I ask themanager
    to present the cook facade manager employee I would probably be met by the
    bouncer employee.
    So what is the answer? Well for a start keep the application architecture
    out of the model. The model should stand alone in describing the
    interactions required to satisfy use cases. Second find an architecture
    that describes a more responsibility driven design and how that design and
    can map your business object behavior to a physical implementation with
    appliances and cooking rules. And lastly, don't be so quick to chain your
    cooks to their appliances. Give them some control over where they cook
    their recipes, after all that is what they do.

    Suppose for a moment you think about the Vehicle classes' persistence as

    you might have to implement security, or locking for concurrent access,
    or caching of vehicle objects to improve performance, and of course you
    want to calculate the vehicle tax and probably do other things with
    Vehicles too.
    You can put the persistence aspect of Vehicles into a
    PersistenceObjectManager, but then the others need somewhere too. If
    you use a bunch of Managers (one for security, one for locking...) then
    each class's behavior is scattered across these various Manager classes,
    each of which has to know about many classes. Or if you use one Manager
    class, it's going to know still more, plus you are forced to implement
    all the behavior in (or at least via) that manager's partition.
    An alternative would be to keep all the Vehicle classes' behavior
    encapsulated together, so a client always makes requests to a Vehicle,
    and the Vehicle delegates the implementation of requests to a chain of
    handler objects that hang off the vehicle object (a handler for
    security, another for persistence, and so on).
    One of the nice things about this is, the handlers can be responsible
    for going to another partition (if necessary), e.g. to perform
    persistence operations, or for more business-specific operations like
    tax calculations. And because the handlers are smart, you don't have to
    put a lot of code into service objects, the SOs can stay pretty simple.
    This isn't an approach you'll see in Express, so I hope of it's of some
    interest.

    Don,
    You are absolutely correct. But this is where I honestly think you are
    missing the point. While the mail program sends the mail, my mail message
    has an interface (i.e. send button) which can delegate that to the mail
    program. This makes it nice and simple for me the consumer of the mail
    program. It also means I can think of mailing by focusing on the interface
    (i.e. the button). It would suck if every time I wanted to mail something I
    had to identify the correct pop server to send it to (i.e the MailManager).
    Mailing something is the collaboration of the setup information of the mail
    program and my mail message. If I were to model this my mail object would
    indeed have a send method that could delegate to the correct mail servers.
    This is just simplicity of interface and it is a good practice in UI
    development just as it is in business model development. A simpler
    interface, I think we can all agree, provides for a better and quicker
    understanding.

  • Polymorphism - retrieving type information from thedatabase

     

    Daniel,
    Yes I have always thought, that modeling the real world can lead to objects
    that are unnecessary or overly complex relationships that do exist in the
    real world but may not have to in a computing environment. Many times,
    business models could be greatly simplified if the modelers factored out
    interfaces from objects so that these interfaces could be applied based on
    need of behavior without having to always construct class hierarchies in a
    particular behavioral structure. Or they could benefit greatly by applying
    design patterns to enhance delegation. But the problem with both of these
    pieces of advice is that they assume the modeler is well versed and
    understands how to apply these concepts. Many application developments I
    come across are being done by a group of people that have never used an OO
    tool before. With an audience such as this, how are they supposed to get
    started?
    Usually they will look and analyze the real-world. This will give them a
    starting point in which to conduct dialog for building an object model. I
    think I do know how these advanced strategies I described above are applied,
    yet I always ask a customer to explain the real-world example of something
    before I attempt at understanding their model and make any attempts at
    advising changes. This assures that I and they have a better physical
    understanding of an interaction before we attempt to describe an abstract
    model of the same interaction.
    As far as sharing of business objects, it is quite routine for a company to
    have one group of IT application developers create a subsystem with business
    objects that must be SHARED by another group of IT application developers.
    The different subsystems have points of interconnect. These points can be
    at the architectural level or business object level. So I don't think this
    situation is as rare as you state. Further, I can see that the marketplace
    is pushing more for run-time object sharing and collaboration so that this
    will be the norm and not the exception.
    I agree on the importance of custom routing for performance. I think it is
    complex enough that I would stop short of telling people to spend time
    building such a scheme. I would hate to see an application miss delivery
    because the developers got too entangled in technical problems like custom
    routing. But I do happen to know of a Framework product that has this as
    one of its features. :)
    I agree 100% with you the complexity of Forte is the marrying of object and
    distributed technologies. I don't agree that frameworks cannot provide the
    answer. I look at a framework as more than just a technical solution. We
    use our framework to help divide the responsibilities between Business
    Analyst, GUI Architect, Back-end Architect, GUI Developers and Back-End
    developers. At many customers, some people play all of these roles. At
    some customers, a developer may play just the GUI Developer role until he
    can come up to speed on how to build simple views that are used to build
    more complex windows. In this way, a large problem can be broken down into
    a set of much smaller problems to help the architects manage work load and
    education of the team. Without a framework that supports this sort of
    approach, the architects of the application would have to delay development
    until boundaries could be put in place. This can be very time consuming and
    cause application rewrites if the boundaries were guessed wrong. In the
    Forte marketplace today, there are products to help people set up those
    architectural boundaries. It simply is more cost effective to buy one of
    these solutions then it is to have your team spend time on this and add risk
    to your project. In other words, architecture for a Forte development can
    be bought much more cheaply than it can be created.

    Mark,
    The battle question was only a little provocation : it seems that Forte
    people and yours don't have exactly the same point of view about the way
    that distribution should be made.
    The problem I see on modeling the real world is that the hypothesis
    seems to
    be wrong : the world will never be as static as the modeling in my point
    of
    view. The fact is that when you try to model real world you will add
    many
    concepts you don't really need for the application. Those concepts may
    change
    with time. In my own experience I have seen that if you don't have a
    real
    concrete objective, it is very easy to imagine many things which won't
    be
    usefull when the real aim will come. That's why I think that in a
    pragmatic
    point of view it is better (in a cost view that's right) to focus on a
    good
    modeling of the system you have to build. For instance, in an exotic
    currencies options system, you can imagine modeling for the Front a
    system
    without the product concepts, but only rules, because it is the real
    world.
    But when you come to the Back Office, you realize that all is managed
    through
    product concept. Then you come back to the Front modeling and break a
    lot
    of work. In the real world, the product concept does not exist, that's
    right.
    But it is a way to manage operations.
    We all speak about Business Objects (and rules) share and re-use. I
    imagine
    that it is only applicable on some specific domains where the concepts
    are
    already shared as Insurance, Banking or Risk management on shares. This
    is
    because we have common rules for all companies : some financial markets
    are
    organized with public rules and constraints for instance. So the
    difference
    between companies is only on the service and not really in the business
    foundations. But, in most cases, the differences between competitors are
    on their business, their know how.
    I have some difficulties to imagine companies with specific know how
    sharing
    it with competitors! So I imagine that shared business objects will be
    very poor.
    The problem may be that Business components will be provided by editors
    like
    Microsoft or may be Forte (with Express evolutions may be). But, the
    business of their clients is not in the job of those providers : they
    may
    have a wrong view of the business of their customers, because they don't
    have their know how.
    On routage capabilities of manager, I agree on the technical point of
    view.
    This should be inherited from a service definition from Forte or a
    technical
    component. But, I have seen (on financial markets) that you also need
    business
    routage for scalability and performance. This is unfortunatly not in
    Forte and
    may be not really in technical frameworks on the market. Just an example
    You have a financial market which is managed on several physical sites
    (let's
    take 2 sites). When everything is ok, you have one instance of a service
    on each
    site, first one managing some kind of instances (futures for instance)
    and the
    second one managing other kinds of instances (options for instance). But
    when the
    first site falls, you need (at run-time and if possible without stopping
    the market)
    to reconfigure the second service to manage all the instances (futures
    and options).
    So this is linked to business really. That's right, I base the
    reflection on a very
    specific (and experienced) case where the cost of the IT system is very
    low compared
    to the money exchanged on the system : you can imagine very specific
    solutions.
    The main problem I see today is that people have real difficulties to
    integrate
    object and distribution concepts and that Forte is to hard for Cobol or
    Visual
    Basic developpers. So those kinds of product should be more encapsulated
    and
    packaged on a push button way. The solution of making frameworks may be
    very
    short term solution, because of the cost and limitations about coverage
    of the
    clients specific objectives. Those problems come from Client/server
    architectures
    and needs, in my opinion, and NOT specifically from Forte or other
    competitors.

    I hope not. For SCAFFOLDS works only because of Forte and when I make

    is a battle between us, I certainly don't understand why,because we are on
    the same team with the same goal.
    I have always found customer have a different role than you have pointed
    out. While I agree with the objectives, I have found most clients do
    actually try to model the real world. They do it because it is an easy
    starting point. They also do it because most OO books on the subject of
    modeling point people in that direction. So they do indeedplay the role of
    God with the business object model. But I have found thesesame customers
    unwilling to play the role of God with the architecture. Theyare either
    new to Forte and distributed object systems or they feelcomfortable with
    the architecture to be documented and supported beyond thetenure of a set
    of consultants that could come in and build such a system. In this case
    they buy a pre-defined and built architecture.
    I also agree that a Forte Service Object in and of itself can be
    problematic. But I depart where you say a manager can dothings like custom
    routing. This is exactly why I think Forte can be too difficult for too
    many people. Any custom routing scheme is not to be takenlightly in its
    impact of the overall performance and makeup of a running system. The
    manager pattern does not describe a run-time environment withthe checks and
    balances needed to make sure a custom router can perform. I have talked
    with you Daniel and have complete faith in your ability todevelop such a
    system. I would be very concerned in having just anyone try toimplement
    custom routing in manager objects without a run-time environment that
    simplifies and protects the participants from the mountain of technical
    problems that would follow.

  • How to retrieve CRL information from a client computer

    Is possible to retrieve CRL information from a client computer and how?
    Thanks.

    CRL's do not normally live on workstations... normally these are hosted on servers. If you want to see what server are in the local revocation list then look at the certificates mmc snap-in and look at the revoked certificate list. If you want to test
    a CRL for a certificate then export the certificate and run "Certutil -url"

  • Conflict Resolver Sync Error - Unable to retrieve conflict information from the sync server

    So I have been using iTunes with my iPhone 3GS and now my iPhone 4 to sync with my Outlook for many years now  and it has been flawless.
    I recently bought a new iPad and started syncing it as well.
    Now as of late, after every 2 or 3 syncs, I get an error from iTunes displaying the Conflict Resolver and it says there are 42 sync conflicts.
    When I try use the Review Now button it shows up and the issues are between my iPhone and Outlook and are only related to contacts.
    As soon as I try to choose which record to resolve, the window immediately disappears without giving me a chance to finish and I get another dialog window with the error:
    Unable to retrieve conflict information from the sync server.
    Please try again the next time the conflict resolver window is presented.
    When I try to sync again it seems to be fine.  But then after I sync my iPad and theny iPhone again it shows up and it still won't let me resolve the conflicts.
    I have tried the following:
    1) Rest Sync History on all devices
    2) I have had iTunes replace all the contacts on the iPad from iTunes
    3) I have changed the conflict resolver to only notify when 50% of the data will be changed
    I have had no such luck.
    If I add a contact to Outlook or to my iPhone and then sync it seems to be syncing the new addtions correctly.  However, I cannot get this issue with this 42 conflicts resolved for some reason.  This has been going on for a month now.

    Here is the solution. 
    Rationale: You want to be able to have the dates on your items (notes, contacts) on your iphone to be the same as on outlook.  This will eliminate any sync conflicts.  You will also notice that if you modify something on the iphone and sync, you will lose the modification you made.
    Steps:
    1) In outlook, export the data (contacts, notes) to a CSV file
    2) Delete you notes/contacts in outlook
    3) Sync your iphone and select replace information on this iPhone (in iTunes)
    4) Now your contacts and notes will be empty on both your iPhone and Outlook
    5) Now import your contacts and notes from the CSV files back into outlook.  What this does is put the current date and time on every individual item
    6) Sync your iPhone to iTunes normally
    7) everything will work correctly now with no sync issues and no conflicts.

  • RE: Polymorphism - retrieving type information from thedatabase

    I would disagree with your statement that either the object or data model
    must be wrong. The problem is more fundamental-trying to store objects in a
    relational database. The object and relational paradigms can be made to
    work together, but usually only by compromising tenets of one or the other
    (or both). Now granted, there are many ways of making them work
    together-and some are definitely better than others.

    This issue has already passed this mailing list a couple of
    times in the past. To put it in more general terms, you have
    different classes which you store in the same DB table.
    This is always tricky. Nine out of ten times, this means
    either your Object model or your DataBase model is wrong.

    This issue has already passed this mailing list a couple of

    different classes which you store in the same DB table.
    This is always tricky. Nine out of ten times, this means
    either your Object model or your DataBase model is wrong.
    If you can differentiate between different classes, this
    means you're dealing with different entities, which should
    be stored in different tables. What if one class has an
    attribute the other one doesn't. This would mean you have
    to add a column to the database which is filled it the row
    represends one class and is NULL if the row represends
    another class. This is not good database practice!
    Differentiating between different classes by means of
    a "type" attribute is the classic procedural approach.
    The OO approach would be to create subclasses. How-
    ever, a relational database doesn't support subclasses.
    The best way, would be to have a different table for
    each subclass. If this gives you problems with norma-
    lizing your database, you can create a table with all
    the attributes generic to vehicle, and a table for each
    subclass with only the attributes relevant to this sub-
    class and a foreign key relation to the main table. If all
    of this is not feasable, you're left with the need to find
    some mechanism to identify what kind of class a cer-
    tain row represends and then instantiate this class. The
    tree solutions you suggested all work. It doesn't really
    matter which one you chose, they're all equally dirty.
    Hope this helps,
    Pascal.

    Subject: Polymorphism - retrieving type information from the
    database
    Suppose I have a class structure containing one base class with
    several specialisations. Say, "Vehicle", with specialisations of
    "Car", "Van" and "Truck". All vehicles are persisted in the database,
    in a rolled-up table, and I want a generic retrieval mechanism, which
    fetches a vehicle based on the license plate number. (It will probably
    be a service object, which I will call a Persistent Object Manager).
    I wish to retrieve ALL vehicles, and calculate the road tax for each.
    However, cars, vans and trucks are all subject to different tax rules,
    and require a different method to calculate their road tax. To put it
    another way, there is a polymorphic method 'CalculateRoadTax' on the
    "Vehicle" class.
    Q: As each vehicle is extracted from the database, how does the rest
    of the Forte application know what type of vehicle it is?
    I am sure that others must have solved this problem before, but it is
    new to us. We have come up with the following solutions:
    (1)  Add a "sub-type" column to the "Vehicle" table. Use the type
    information to instantiate a Forte object of the correct type
    (2)  Maintain a completely separate table linking the vehicle licence
    plate to its sub-type.
    (3)  Deduce the type of the object from the pattern of null columns in
    the row.
    I think (1) is the best solution, but I'm interested to know what the
    experts say!
    Incidentally, if Express can help or hinder in this situation, I would
    be interested in that as well.

    Hello.  I just upgraded to Lion OS X 10.7.3.  I was previously running 10.5.7 which included the ENTOURAGE application.  how do I retrieve needed information from this application that no longer runs on this new system?

    The file you'll be looking for that has most of what you're looking for - messages, address book, etc. is the Entourage Database.  The verison of Microsoft Office I run (on Lion) is Office 2008.  By default the Entourage Database for this verison is at user/Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office 2008 Identities/Main Identity/Database.  That folder (Main Identitty) also has your rules, signatures, and such.  You'll have to recover this file from whatever backup you have.  If you have a different version of Entourage, the file location will be a little diffferent.
    Good luck

  • Cannot access conflicts unable to retrieve contact information from the sync server.

    ITunes error message Cannot access conflicts unable to retrieve contact information from the sync server.

    I got this advice from Gator5000e on Apple Supposrt Communities:
    I use Windows 7 so the path to find this file
    might be different under a different OS.
    Close iTunes. Search on the words "conflicts.synconflicts".
    I renamed it  to conflictsold.synconflicts the .synconflicts is the extension so you can't
    rename that.
    Then restarted Windows. As a test I made changes to a note in NOTES on each device. Then connected them one at a time to my computer which has iTunes 10 and Runs Windows 7, it worked !

  • Retrieving specific information (email addresses) from Active Directory in text/Excel file

    Hello, out there. I'm just beginning to learn PowerShell finally, I'm very interested in learning cooler and better things.
    I wanted to know if retrieving information from Active Directory based on a text or spreadsheet file was possible.
    An example: I have a list of Windows Usernames from an Excel file, and I need to pull what email addresses they have from AD. They're a part of different OUs either. Rather than manually look up each individual account I'm researching a way to grab this
    info.
    I would very much appreciate a push in the right direction.
    Thank you!
    LiQuiD_FuSioN

    Hi,
    Sure, that's definitely possible. You can use the Active Directory cmdlets to retrieve this information. Here's an example of reading input from a text file (just usernames in the text file):
    Get-Content .\userList.txt | ForEach {
    Get-ADUser -Identity $_ -Properties EmailAddress
    You can also read input from a CSV file quite easily. This example assumes a header of Username:
    Import-Csv .\userList.csv | ForEach {
    Get-ADUser -Identity $_.Username -Properties EmailAddress
    Finally, here's a link to the Get-ADUser syntax:

    Hi all,

    EJB's.
    I'm trying something like:
    EJBPermission perm = new EJBPermission("some action");
    AccessController.checkPermission(perm);
    Is that at all possible in J2EE security architecture? Is there a Weblogic
