Setting system properties for IDE JVM

I need to set system properties in order to turn tracing on for a JDBC driver being called by the IDE. Is there a way to do so?

Thanks for the reply, but I'm still not getting where I need to get. It appears that either the IDE runs a different copy of my jar file in some obscure location, or it runs with some sort of restricted permissions.
My driver does not seem to write to its trace file when running in the IDE. It works when I deploy things, but I need to trace the IDE since it does not appear to like something I'm doing.
I have put a line of code in the driver that writes to a file whenever an instance of the Driver Class is created, but that doesn't seem to get the job done, either. I even put this code in a static initializer. No go.
Any help greatly appreciated!

  • How do I set System properties within WL6.0?

    I am setting WL6.0 up to have a startup class, but this class needs to
    read system properties which have not yet been set. How do I set these
    up within weblogic? I was able to get the startup class set up, but it
    needs these system properties to continue.

    Correct on all points. The one advantage of doing this in java is that you can more easily do more
    complex things like accessing configuration information from a remote data store (like a database).

    These are not needed if you simply replace java ...lots of options... weblogic.Server with

    (I think that the ultimate goal is the ability to deploy(and redeploy!) components,
    without any mods to the particular vendor's startup scripts of anything of that nature).

    props.put("myProperty", "myValue");

    System.setProperties(props);
    weblogic.Server.main(args);
    Make sure you run this from E:\bea\wlserver6.0., as it tries to read config.xml
    config\[your-domain-name] from this
    directory.

  • Setting system properties: difference between "-D" and "System.setProperty"

    Hi.
    I have a program that relies on the jogl library to display graphics. Internally, jogl loads a native library from disk, with a System.loadLibrary() call. In turn, loadLibrary searches the paths in the system property "java.library.path" to find the jogl DLL/SO files. So, it is my responsibility to ensure that the "java.library.path" property is correctly set.
    There are two ways that I know of to set system properties: as an argument to the JRE via the "-D" option and from within an application with the System.setProperty method. However, I have noticed that only the former gives the desired behavior. That is, if I do:
    java -Djava.library.path=lib MyProgram{code}
    the code in jogl.jar is able to successfully find and load the native libraries in lib/, but if I do:
    {code:java}System.setProperty("java.library.path", "lib");{code}
    at the beginning of main in my program (before the classes requiring jogl are loaded), I end up with an UnsatisfiedLinkError.
    Why does this happen? Why do the 2 methods produce different results? Is specifying native library paths on the command line the only way to ensure that they are found?

  • How to set CORS properties for BLOB Storage using node?

    Hi - I just got started with Azure using a Node-based web site and mobile services.
    I am following various documentation in order to provide an API for users to upload images via a time-restricted SAS for the BLOB Storage.
    In order to upload my image, I need to set the CORS configuration for the BLOB Storage. Unfortunately this cannot be done via the management portal.
    I'm unclear as to how to accomplish this. I'm considering using the startup.js file in my mobile service to make a post request to the BLOB Storage REST API:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/hh452235.aspx
    Are there appropriate methods in the Node SDK to make this easier, especially the signing part?
    What is the recommended way for setting CORS properties for the BLOB Storage via Node?
    Thanks for your help
    Stefan

    Unfortunately Node SDK does not support CORS functionality yet. Your option would be to write code which consumes the REST API for setting CORS. Not sure if it helps but there's a free tool out there written by my company which you can use to set CORS
    on your storage account. More information about this tool can be found here:

  • Is contextInitialized() blocked from setting System properties?

    A certain 3rd party app we're using within a web app requires a specific System
    property be set. Since it's a local path, we'd like to shy away from hardcoding
    a -D into the startup script, and instead do it via a ServletContextListener and
    set the property within contextInitialized(). In WL7.0sp2, it seems to hit the
    line in our listener where it tries to set a System property, and nothing happens.
    It doesn't seem to throw an exception, write anything to the console, nothing.
    Is there a security setting that blocks contextInitialized() methods from setting
    System properties? Is it a WL thing, or maybe a servlet spec thing? It works
    if we use a dummy servlet set to pre-load, where we set the System property in
    the servlet's init() method, but that's a little tackier than doing it in one
    single context init listener.

    Turns out the context-param that I was trying to use as the value of the System
    property was null. When it sets a non-null value, it works. But apparently when
    the value of the System property is null, you get the weird behaviour described
    below: it's as if the tread just stops. I tried setting a breakpoint and stepping
    through, but it immediately went into weblogic security and threading classes
    and never returned. So now I'll have a new question about when context-params
    load during deployment, but I'll post that separately.

  • Set Global Properties for ADF components

    Hi everyOne....
    My question is the following .... let me know how I can set global properties for a component and not have to set the same property in each of them.
    Thanks
    Edmar

    Let me know if this answers your question:
    For Attributes : set the properties in EO or VO. [You can set all UI properties too]
    For labels: use Resource bundle
    For Layout Components to set the look and feel. CSS/Skinning would be the best.
    I guess this should cover most part of application.

  • Setting System properties and classpath at boot

    Hi all,
    I'm pretty new to weblogic and I'd need to set some system properties and classpath definitions for my servers at boot. Can I set them via the Administration console or just adding them to the startWeblogic/startManagedWeblogic using the standard -cp and -D flags ?
    I've found in the Console, there's the Server Boot properties. However adding them there didn't work. Correct me if I'm wrong, this option can be used ONLY when starting the servers from the Node Manager ?
    Thanks
    Frank

    Hi Frank,
    You are right!!!!
    But you can set them with in setDomainEnv file under java_option.
    Please set under
    Unix
    JAVA_OPTION = "${JAVA_OPTION} -DXXXXX"
    In Windows
    set JAVA_OPTION = %JAVA_OPTION% -DXXXXX
    Hope this will help you.

  • Acrobat pro: how set default properties for arrow and line tool seperately?

    I have a problem with the 'comment and markup' tools in Adobe Acrobat Pro.
    I would like to change the defaults of some of the tools, eg the arrow and the line tool.
    This can be achieved by right-clicking on something drawn using the tool in question and then selecting 'properties' - or by selecting the tool and then press ctrl+E, wich opens a 'Callout Tool Properties', and then change what you want there. The latter option keeps the changes as defaults - the former offers a box to tick in the 'properties' dialogue that opens - or, you can right-click on the object again after having changed the properties, and then select 'Make Current Properties Default'.
    My Problem is now, that, apparently, you cannot choose and save default properties freely and for each tool. I woul like to have the default properties for the line tool set as the following:
    -line color: yellow
    -line thickness: 8pt
    -opacity: 60%
    and fot the arrow tool as this:
    -line color: red
    -line thickness: 1pt
    -opacity: 100%
    This all works fine as long as the program is open. As soon as I exit and start it again opening another document /the same one again, the arrow tool changes to
    -line color: yellow
    -opacity: 60%
    only the line thickness remains at 1pt.
    If I change the properties of the line to the ones I want for the arrow, the arrow properties remain unaltered if I close Acrobat Pro.
    Why do these properties interfere? Why is it "line color/thickness" in both? Why, then, do only the opacity and the color interfere, but not the thickness - even if it's the latter two properties that are bot called "line xxx"? Why does Acrobat not save all properties for these two shapes seperately - even IF the two shapes are both of a line-like kind?
    Is there a way to get around this?

    Trobbel - This indeed is puzzling behavior. Clicking 'Make Current Properties Default' should preserve the default  appearance for each. I don't have a solution, but merely a couple of suggestions:
    1) Make sure you have installed any available upgrade for your version of Acrobat Professional.
    2) Consider using the line tool exclusively - you can add an arrowhead and make one tool perform both tasks.
    Hope this helps. /rmbrown

  • Setting system properties accessible from BPEL independent of ENV

    I am implementing a BPEL Process in which I am referring to a folder in my local server.Is there any way where I can set some sytem properties such way that the folder path could be dynamically accessed independent of the server/environment.
    Ex:-in dev environment I am referring to this location - 'aia/tmp/DCTM/Input'
    in devtest environment I want it to refer to this location- 'tmp/DCTM/Input'
    Can we have any generic settings for this requirement?
    Regards,
    Niva

    You can try using bpel preferences. You can change the values of these preferences @ runtime using the em console and the value changes dynamically without server restart.
    Ex:
    In composite.xml :
    <component name="sample">
    <implementation.bpel src="sample.bpel"/>
    <property name="bpel.preference.folderLoc">aia/tmp/DCTM/Input</property>
    <property name="bpel.preference.customProp">xyz</property>
    </component>
    and use ora:getPreference(folderLoc) to get it from within a BPEL process
    and to change the value from em :
    EM>Farm_soa_domain>weblogic domain>your_domain>soa_server1>right click menu>system Mbean browser>oracle.soa.config>server:soa_server1>SCAComposite>your project>SCAComposite.SCAComponent>processName>
    Click the properties attribute : you should see the folderLoc and customProp and be able to change those.
    Hope this helps.
