SCJP exam related question

Does the exam expect you to know all the subclasses of EXCEPTION and RUNTIMEEXCEPTION or is ir more likely to just test your knowledge on which have to be dealt with in order to compile?
I am not fimiliar with all the subclasses and this is why I ask. A question that states a mthod throws CannotUndoException may catch me offgaurd.
Another question is....
If you have a method and declare it to throw a runtime exception. Does that mean that if you call on that method that you must deal with it? IOW does it become a checked excption or will Runtime Exception never be checked by the compiler?

This question (apart from the totally undescriptive title) has no relation whatsoever with the SCJP exam.
But then, neither does the majority of what's posted in that forum...Well, it seems to me the OP is asking about what to expect from the SCJP.
Do you mean that nothing is to be expected from the SCJP so to ask about that is an unrelated question?

  • Code evaluation on the SCJP exam

    I've been studying for the SCJP exam, and I'm just about ready to take the practice exam. Just for fun, I've been tinkering around with some of the free practice exams online. For sure, some seem better than others. But messing with them has made me wonder about two things:
    1. Approximately what percentage of the real exam is code evaluation (i.e. here's the code > does it compile > does it throw a runtime error > what is the output )?
    2. On all of the practice exams, you conceivably could copy the code into a text editor, compile it and execute it to determine the output. Surely on the real exam, they have guarded against this by painting the code into an applet or something to prevent copying/pasting, right? Or do they just figure that the time penalty of copying/pasting will weed out those who don't know their stuff?
    Thanks for your answers.
    Best,

    impossible to say. The questions are selected at random from a pool of all available questions (though I suspect there's a mechanism in there to guarantee some sort of reasonable mix between the exam topics).
    In theory they could all be of the same type, or none.

    The exam computer is designed such that you can't switch applications.
    You have the text of the question, the space to select your answer, and some buttons (next, previous, ready, etc.).
    You have nothing at your disposal apart from your brain, a pen or pencil, and a few sheets of blank paper (and the pen and paper are provided to you and have to be turned in when you leave, it's your responsibility to provide the brain).

  • I want to check all functions of PCI 6534.I have read the user manual..I have some memory related questions.​Please help me for that.

    I want to check all functions of PCI 6534.I have read the user manual..I have some memory related questions.Please help me for that.
    1.)If i am using the continuous output mode.and the size of generated data is less than 32 MB.If i want to preload the memory,what should i do?I want that first of all i load all my data to onboard memory & then i want to make start the transfer between 6534 & peripheral.Is it possible?As per me it should be.Plz tell me how should i do this?I think that in normal procedure the transfer between 6534-peripheral & outputting data from pc buffer to onboard memory works parallely.But i don't want this.Is it poss
    ible?
    (2).Similarly in finite input operation(pattern I/O) is it possible to preload the memory and then i read it?Because i think that the PC memory will be loaded automatically when 6534 acquires the data and then when we use DIO read vi the pc buffer data will be transferred to application buffer.If this is true,i do not want this.Is it possible?
    (3) One more question is there if i am using normal operation onboard memory will be used bydefault right?Now if i want to use DMA and if i have data of 512 bytes to acquire.How will it work and how should i do it?Please tell me the sequence of operations.As per my knowledge in normal DMA operation we have 32 Bytes FIFO is there so after acquisition of 32 bytes only i can read it.How it will known to me that 32 bytes acquisition is complete?Next,If i want to acquire each byte separately using DMA interrupts what should i do?Provide me the name of sourse from which i can get details about onboard memory & DMA process of 6534 specifically
    (4).In 6534 pattern Input mode,if i want to but only 10 bits of data.and i don't want to waste any data line what should i do?

    Hi Vishal,
    I'll try to answer your questions as best I can.
    1) It is definitely possible to preload data to the 32MB memory (per group) and start the acquisition after you have preloaded the memory. There are example programs on ni.com/support under Example Code for pattern generation and the 6534 that demonstrate which functions to use for this. Also, if your PC memory buffer is less than 32MB, it will automatically be loaded to the card. If you are in continuous mode however, you can choose to loop using the on-board memory or you can constantly be reading the PC memory buffer as you update it with your application environment.
    2) Yes, your data will automatically be loaded into the card's onboard memory. It will however be transferred as quickly as possible to the DMA FIFO on the card and then transferred to the PC memory buffer through DMA. It is not going to wait until the whole onboard memory is filled before it transfers. It will transfer throughout the acquisition process.
    3) Vishal, searching the example programs will give you many of the details of programming this type of application. I don't know you application software so I can't give you the exact functions but it is easiest to look at the examples on the net (or the shipping examples with your software). Now if you are acquiring 512 bytes of data, you will start to fill your onboard memory and at the same time, data will be sent to the DMA FIFO. When the FIFO is ready to send data to the PC memory buffer, it will (the exact algorithm is dependent on many things regarding how large the DMA packet is etc.).
    4) If I understand you correctly, you want to know if you waste the other 6 bits if you only need to acquire on 10 lines. The answer to this is Yes. Although you are only acquiring 10 bits, it is acquired as a complete word (16bits) and packed and sent using DMA. You application software (NI-DAQ driver) will filter out the last 6 bits of non-data.
    Hope that answers your questions. Once again, the example code on the NI site is a great place to start this type of project. Have a good day.

  • Two related questions:  ColdFusion 10/Java applications and J2EE supported servers

    I have two related questions:
    1.  CF10 and integration with Java Web applications
    We have a couple of Java applications running on JRun and interfacing with CF9 applications.  The JRun clusters were created through the JRun Admin and, apart from lack of Axis 2.0 support, have served us well for years now.  And, as would be the case, the ColdFusion9/Java/Flash application is a critical public-facing application that the business uses for bidding on projects.
    It appears that with ColdFusion 10 on Tomcat, we will not be able to run those Java applications on a Tomcat-CF10 JVM cluster.  Is this correct?  IF so, what are our options? 
    2.  J2EE Application Servers supported by Adobe for CF10
    Which of these is correct?
    A.  This URL (http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion-enterprise/faq.html) states "ColdFusion 10 supports IBM® WebSphere, Oracle® WebLogic, Adobe JRun, Apache Tomcat, and JBoss."
    B.  This URL (http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/products/coldfusion/pdfs/cf1 0/coldfusion10-support-matrix.pdf) states:
    "J2EE application servers: WebLogic Server 10.3, 11.1, WebSphere Application Server 7, ND 7 JBoss 5.1, 6.0, 7.1.0"
    I *think* "A" above is wrong re. support for Adobe JRun.  It does not specify a version of Apache Tomcat unless it is simply referring to the custom version the comes with CF10.
    Option "B" above shows no support of Adobe JRun or 'standard' Apache Tomcat.
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Question 1 above was answered:  "No support for Java web applications under CF10's custom version of Tomcat"
    Question 2:  No answer yet:  Is Apache Tomcat (NOT Adobe's customized version) supported for CF10 J2EE deployment?  I do not see any installation instructions on how to install CF10 on Apache Tomcat 6 or 7.
    Is anybody using Apache Tomcat as their J2EE app servers and, again, NOT Adobe's customized/limited version? 
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Is that the actual wording?  Why can't they make these questions less
    ambiguous?   Just because you intend for the loops to run in parallel doesn't mean they actually do it.  BUT, the data will still be passed between the loops eventually, so technically, YES, a wire can be used.  Why didn't the question just say: "two loops that ARE running in parallel"?
    The wording actually seems to be pretty decent. Two loops cannot be running in parallel if there is a wire running between them. The situation you describe--where one loop stops, data is passed, then the other loop begins--does NOT describe two loops running in parallel, rather two loops running sequentially.
    When the question says "intends", it asks you to play the part of the designer of the code: if you want to have data passed between two loops, how would you design that? The answer is certainly not a wire.
    True, but the fact that we're even discussing the semantics proves that it's confusing.  I'm sure NI has a tough time coming up with multiple CLAD versions covering essentially the same questions but those questions should be testing for knowledge of LabVIEW, not English Language.  A test taker should be able to focus on the what a question is asking and not how it's being asked.

  • New price of scjp exam

    Hi All,
    I have pay for scjp exam.but today, the exam center call me and said new price of the exam is *$300* is it true. can any one tell me. plzzz help
    Thank you

    you have to remember that the price is calculated in local currency, and with changing exchange rates that can mean that the dollar price fluctuates (and with the rapidly sinking dollar, that at the moment means the dollar price will go up even if the local price stays the same).
    For example the price here is 250 Euro (inc taxes), and has been for years.
    But when that price was set the Euro was $1, now it's almost $1.50.
    So in dollars the price has gone up from $250 to (by now) about $370.

    I hate to say this, but I often see the same thing, and I've never been able to figure out exactly what triggers selectability vs. non-selectability, but I suspect some of it has to do with tranparency flattening in particular, and possibly text wrap in cases where that comes into play. ID optimizes the PDF it creates, I think, and that might cause text, or even images, to be broken into chunks in funny ways. It occurs to me that turning off optimzing for fast web view might help in this regard.
