Single War file VS Separating WAR files suggestions

Hi There
We have big a debate whether to go with a single WAR file (JEE application) VS creating multiple WAR files.
Here is the back ground: This is an IVR application.
There are 4 types of callers Member, Provider, Dental, Vision. For each of them there is only JSP which will take care of all required Dialogues(Menus). At the end of the any call we collect MemberID regardless of the caller.
There are 4 separate phone linse for the above 4 types of callers. However any caller can call into any of the lines. For example according to business requirements, Provider can call into Memebr line and hence Member(app) should be able to handle the logic. In other words Memebr & Provider are tied together.
Arugents:
I : I say create one single JEE project and have separate JSPs for the above 4 catagories so that teh application can share lot of common modules such as Logging, some Libs, configuraiton files, some JSFs, Some JSPs(We have some common JSPs that needed to be shared by 4 types of callers).
Otherside argument: Each of the 4 call types should be created as a seperate WAR files so that change of one WAR does not affect the other.
Even though that seems to be right given the nature of the business requirements change in one definitely affects other hence regression testing is needed on all of them anyway. In that case what benefits are we trying to reap except the extra maintainence.
I would like some of your expert's opionions and thoughts on these approaches (Construction, vesioning, Maintenance perspective). I appreciate your inputs.

This issue comes up repeatably. It's a real bug.
          I believe this problem was fixed in a 5.1 service pack, but I'm trying to
          find out the exact disposition of the issue. Noone seems to be complaining
          about this under 6.x, so a fix seems to have been made, the only question is
          whether or not it got back-ported to a 5.1 service pack.

Hi,
This is right provided you have installed the webserver & app server
on the same machine and the port number for the web server is 80 by
default.

How to find my own property file in a war in soloaris

Hi, there;
I have a question whcih bothers me quite long. I packaged a property file in a
war file and use console to uploaded. I can access to the servlet through browser
and the servlet reference another class which looks like
try {
InputStream is = getClass().getResourceAsStream "/data_ctrmw.properties");
error +="InputStream property file 1nd try: "+is;
if(is==null){
is = getClass().getResourceAsStream("data_ctrmw.properties");
System.err.println("data_ctrmw.properties found! ");
error +=" InputStream property file 2nd try: "+is;
Same code works on windows wls6.1, but not on soloris machine.
One other question:
How can I write out to a log file? I am unable to write out to a log file.
Thanks a lot

Sorry;
Yesterday, I finally found that my web.xml had an error. I didn't define .properties
as MIME extension type. I change property file type to .txt and put in MIME type.
It works!
Thanks

Thanks for your good suggestion. However, it seems still not working,
I also tried
getResourceAsStream("/") trying to find from app context root. By the
way, in
this function, the arg is
String path, right now, I am just add the param-name element in web.xml
for a
specific servlet. But actuall, I want the properties to be exposed to
the application.
Also, I tried context-param element in web.xml, it even can't be uploaded
to jrun
or weblogic.
I guess, it might be possible to warp it in an .ear file and put these
in sth
like application.xml
Any suggestion?

Programmatically Modifying a File in Deployed war

I am new to OAS, so excuse me if this is a stupid question.
We are deploying a custom application that provides access to 3rd party software. To that end, we include the 3rd party JAR file in our WAR file.
This 3rd party software requires a certain file be available in the CLASSPATH. Hence, we have this file in the WEB-INF\classes directory. This file contains configuration parameters that the 3rd party software uses.
However, we also have a requirement that our end users need to be able to modify these parameters to cause the 3rd party software to operate differently. So, what I'd like to do is build a UI for our users that allows them to modify the parameters that are stored in this file and then updates the file which is inside the war (in WEB-INF\classes).
Is it possible to do this in OAS? Does OAS provide any API that can be called from a class inside the war file to update another file in that same war file?
It is not permissible for us to store this configuration file anywhere else, like on a file server. Our end client forbids this. So that is why I am seeking to update the file inside the war.
Thanks.

Let us call the file in your problem "the configuration file". If I understand correctly, the crux of the problem is to get hold of the configuration file programmatically after the deployment of the containing war file. You can then provide some mechanism for your client to manipulate it.
An HttpServlet can be employed to do that. Suppose the web application has an index.html at the top level of the war file. Suppose that after the war has been deployed, that index.html can be accessed by, as usual, http://host:port/myServeletContext/index.html. Then you can get the location of the configuration file by
String fileLocation = "WEB-INF" + File.separator + "classes" + File.separator + "configurationFile";
File indexFile = new File(getServletContext().getRealPath("/index.html"));
File webRoot = indexFile.getParentFile();
File configFile = new File(webRoot, fileLocation);This is a common trick to get the path to a file in WEB-INF directory. Hope this helps.

How to get the URI of a file in a WAR

Hi all,
I have a deployed WAR.
One of its files need to get the URI of another file in this war.
In exploded format, application.getRealPath(thefilename) would do the
trick. But it failed if the application is deployed in WAR archive.
What's the workaround ?
Note that I need the full path of the file since I need to read its
content and parse it as XML using DOMParser that requires the full URI ..
Any help appreciated ..
mona

I have a piece of code that does this that looks like this:
InputStream inStream =
<ServletClassName>.class.getResourceAsStream("/foo.xml");
InputStreamReader inReader = new InputStreamReader(inStream);
And 'foo.xml' is put in the classpath either by placing it in a .jar file in
the WEB-INF/lib directory or by placing it in a .jar file that is deployed
with the webapp .war file in an .ear file and then referenced by the
'Class-Path:' manifest directive in the META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file of the
webapp.war file. Both ways work. I would think you could put 'foo.xml' in the
WEB-INF/classes directory and that work work, too. But, I haven't tried that.

ClassNotFoundException trying to load classes in a .war file inside an .ear file

Hi. I've deployed an EJB2 enterprise app as an ear file on WebLogic 6
          without errors. The ear file contains web app and ejb components in war and
          jar files. The web component is set to be the default web app in the
          config.xml file. Everything deploys without error messages.
          My problem is that I get ClassNotFoundExceptions when I try to invoke a
          servlet (via its servlet-mapping) or do Class.forName() on any class file in
          the war file.
          I see in '.wl_temp_do_not_delete' that the ear file has been decomposed into
          the ejb jar and web war files. The war file is not 'exploded' into a
          directory structure, however (as the console.war is). Is this an error
          (should the class packages in the war file be 'exploded'?)
          I don't see a tag in the web.xml, config.xml, or application.xml that tells
          the server to explode the war file--is there one?
          Note that if I manually copy the exploded class folders into the
          '_tmp_war_myserver_myserver_<<webappname>>' directory (and not, curiously,
          into a WEB-INF/classes subdirectory of that directory), the servlets and
          other classes load correctly. Also, jsps and html files load just fine
          without exploding the war file.
          Note also that the server complains about not being able to find the
          classes, even though it reports that the decomposed war file is in the
          classpath. Is there a problem loading class files from a .war file (because
          the namespace is different, with root classes located in WEB-INF/classes
          rather than the .war file's root?)
          Also, in the application.xml file, what is the meaning of the
          <context-root></context-root> element? What should its value be? What if
          you leave it blank?
          Thanks for any help,
          Reid


Is there a way to add jar libraries to the Oracle JVM CLASSPATH? Is this the same as the system's CLASSPATH env. variable?
Thank you!

You can place your file in /WEB-INF and use
          ServletContext.getResourceAsStream("WEB-INF/...") to read it, or,
          if it is in the classpath (classes ir lib), you can use
          Class.getResourceAsStream().

Read a file in the war

We have packaged our application into a war file. The classes in the war can read some property files which are put in the weblogic server directory. How to open and read the files if we move those property files into the war file? Where can we find some example source codes for it?thanks.


Unless you have a very good reason to use disk files, you
          can package your properties files with the web app and use
          Class.getResourceAsStream() or ServletContext.getResourceAsStream()
          (if you put these into WEB-INF for example).

Jaas.conf file conflicts between WARs.....

We have several different apps running in a TomCat container and each one contains its own jaas.conf file in its WAR file. Is there anyway for these apps to all find their own jaas.conf file? As far as I can tell, there is no way to do this.
Right now, each app sets a system property like this:
String jaas_conf = getServlet().getServletContext()
.getRealPath("/WEB-INF/jaas.conf");
System.getProperties().setProperty(
"java.security.auth.login.config",jaas_conf);
The problem here is that only the most recently loaded app can ever find its jaas.conf file.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks!
Tim

Right now, each app sets a system property like this:
String jaas_conf = getServlet().getServletContext()
.getRealPath("/WEB-INF/jaas.conf");
System.getProperties().setProperty(
"java.security.auth.login.config",jaas_conf);
Don't know exactly about jaas, but can you make a copy of the System propreties, or make a new property and fill it with your info and then use that as a parameter for your jaas instance?

Single JVM, two nodes, separate override files configuration?

This question might have surfaced before in the forums but even after going through several posts I couldn't get a decent understanding on how this works. Here is my question...
I wanna bring up two coherence nodes in a single JVM, both independent and unrelated to each other. These two nodes have different cache-config xml files, and also override files. My question is how do I configure these nodes such that they work with two separate override files. I don't wanna use -Dtangosol.coherence.override because my doing this, this system property applies to both the nodes so I can't keep the override xml files separate.
So, what is best way to accomplish this such a way that the nodes don't collide with each other by using a common override files?
I hope I am clear.
Thank you.

Hi,
Both the solution I posted and Jon's solution rely on a ClassLoader to isolate the Coherence nodes within the JVM. We do not use this in Production but we do use it as part of our build process and run over 18,000 test cases with a single JVM cluster, so in that respect it works well. I think if you used it in Production you would need to have done a lot of testing to make sure that there are no very subtle issues that might come back to bite you later.
The reason doing what you want is difficult is because Coherence uses a number of singletons at runtime - for example the Cluster instance, and without using a class loader it is difficult to have more than one of these. Coherence also uses a lot of System properties to override configuration values so these may need to be isolated too.
Finally using a class loader would make if difficult for your application code to interact with the two isolated nodes inside the single JVM.
It might be better if you told us why you think you need to run two nodes in a single JVM - what requirement are you trying to meet? There might be a much more sensible solution to your requirements. As NJ has suggested using Extend might be one solution but without knowing more about what you want to do I couldn't say for sure.
If you don't know what Extend is then read the documentation - The Client Guide covers Extend http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24290_01/coh.371/e22839/toc.htm and the rest of the documentation is here http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24290_01/index.htm

Kevin is suggesting that you store the projects you create while working through his book in a folder called RoboHelpProjects. It is not where you have to store every project you ever create.That is for the purposes of his book.
RoboHelp initially defaults to My RoboHelp Projects but it's up to you whether you do. Generally on the forums we advise against that as it is part of your profile and can result in excessively long path names in a few cases. Generally where authors create file names that are so long they almost serve as the content.
Projects always have a root folder, call them Project 1 and Project 2 for this purpose. You can have those folders directly off your C drive (or other local partition) or within in a parent folder as above.
Now to what you can and cannot do. You can delete a whole project by selecting Project 1 or Project 2 in Windows Explorer. Obviously if you delete the parent folder you will delete all your projects within.
What you must not do is delete individual files within a project using Windows Explorer, for that you use RoboHelp's Project Manager. The exception is if you go to Tools > Reports there is a report Unused Files. Files listed there will have to be deleted using Windows Explorer for the very good reason they do not appear in Project Manager and, therefore, cannot be deleted that way.
If you think about it, it is similar to Word. There is no option to delete a document there other than using File > Open and right clicking. Not very intuitive.

In PS 9, can I backup to disc and keep the pix separated by file name?

In the past, my backups to disc just result in a mass of pictures that are not separated by file name and haven't retained their numerical designation.
It would be much more useful if this could be done.
Is there a way of doing this in PS 9?

Then you might want to post in the appropriate Forum.

[Forum FAQ] How do I export each group data to separated Excel files in Reporting Services?

Introduction
There is a scenario that a report grouped by one field for some reasons, then the users want to export each group data to separated Excel files. By default, we can directly export only one file at a time on report server. Is there a way that we can split
the report based on the group, then export each report to Excel file?
Solution
To achieve this requirement, we can add a parameter with the group values to filter the report based on the group, then create a data-driven subscription for the report which get File name and parameter from the group values.
In the report, create a parameter named Name which use the Name field as Available Values (supposing the group grouped on Name field).
Add a filter as below in the corresponding tablix:
Expression: [Name]
Operator: =
Value: [@Name]
Deploy the report. Then create a data-driven subscription with Windows File Share delivery extension for the report in Report Manager.
During the data-driven subscription, in the step 3, specify a query that returns the Name field with the values as the group in the report.
In the step 4 (Specify delivery extension settings for Report Server FileShare), below “File name”option, select “Get the value from the database”, then select Name field.
Below ‘Render Format’ option, select Excel as the static value.
In the step 5, we can configure parameter Name “Get the value from the database”, then select Name field.
Then specify the subscription execute only one time.

Is this a supported scenario, or does it use unsupported features?

in a supported way?
