Trouble with Ford class

I created this abstract class ...
public abstract class v8Engine {
  public String start;
  public boolean getInspectionResults;
}... Then I extended it like this ...
public class FordWindsorV8  extends v8Engine {
  private static int rebuildCount;
  private static final boolean passInspection = false;
  private static final String aquireLocation = "junkyard";
  public String start() {
    return("useless");
  public void reBuild() {
    rebuildCount++;
  public boolean getInspectionResults() {
    return(passInspection);
  public String aquireEngineResults() {
    return(aquireLocation);
  public int getRebuildCount() {
    return( rebuildCount );
  }... Finally I tried to run it after compiling it all, with this class:
public class runV8Engine {
    FordWindsorV8 fv8 = new FordWindsorV8();
    System.out.println("Where was engine obtained? ... "+fv8.aquireEngineResults());
    fv8.reBuild();
    System.out.println("Start results: "+fv8.start());
    System.out.println("Pass MV inspection? ... "+fv8.getInspectionResults());
    fv8.reBuild();
    System.out.println("Start results: "+fv8.start());
    fv8.reBuild();
    System.out.println("Start results: "+fv8.start());
    fv8.reBuild();
    System.out.println("Engine was rebuilt how many times? ... "+fv8.getRebuildCount());
    System.out.println("Start results: "+fv8.start());
    System.out.println("Pass MV inspection? ... "+fv8.getInspectionResults());
}... But all it does is basically nothing. Why?

Like this ;-)
public class runV8Engine {
public static void main(String[] argv) {
FordWindsorV8 fv8 = new FordWindsorV8();
System.out.println("Where was engine obtained? ... "+fv8.aquireEngineResults());
fv8.reBuild();
System.out.println("Start results: "+fv8.start());
System.out.println("Pass MV inspection? ... "+fv8.getInspectionResults());
fv8.reBuild();
System.out.println("Start results: "+fv8.start());
fv8.reBuild();
System.out.println("Start results: "+fv8.start());
fv8.reBuild();
System.out.println("Engine was rebuilt how many times? ... "+fv8.getRebuildCount());
System.out.println("Start results: "+fv8.start());
System.out.println("Pass MV inspection? ... "+fv8.getInspectionResults());

  • Trouble with interface class

    Hi there,
    for a school project we're building a helicopter which can be controlled via the computer. We're going to connect some wires to the remote control of the helicopter and the wires we also connect to a LabJack (a digital/analog converter). Via java we can give signals to this labjack and control so the helicopter. Only one thing: I've downloaded the library for labjack for java. You can see this labrary, it called LabJackJava: http://www.teravation.com/downloads/LabJackJava.zip
    In it is a few classes and one of them is called LabJack (this is in fact a interface). In the interface there is a method called: void setAO(int channel, float value) throws LabJackException;
    This method I'm going to need to set the voltage on the wires. For compiling I use the program BlueJ (which is a object-orientated compiler). But because the the class LabJack is a interface, I cannot call the method setAO(). How can I solve this?? I also had some trouble with the System.loadLibrary("ljackj"); in the class LabJackDriver. I copied the file ljackj.dll into the folder system32 (windows) and it still doesn't work... Is this dll essential for the working of the class LabJack??? How can I solve this???
    Please help me!!
    Thanks!
    Héctor van den Boorn

    This is a forum for the Java programming language, not for every program and library ever written in Java. The LabJack site has a support area and forum, which should be the right place to seek a solution.
    That said, the documentation indicates that you obtain a LabJack reference from the appropriate method of LabJackFactory. The reference returned will be that of a platform dependent concrete class that implements the interface.

  • Having trouble with First Class mail

    I'm trying to use my email at school (Benito Juarez Community Academy) and also set up Gradespeed but having trouble with both.
    In composing mail, the screen will only accept a line or so and no more. I can mail that but message is incomplete. Also, can't get into Gradespeed. All I get is a multicolored pinwheel that is a security check but never stops spinning.

  • Trouble with UML class diagram...

    i understand tha in a UML class diagram: + thing : int would translate to java like this: public int thing;but what would + thing(int,int) translate into?

    + thing : intmeans that 'thing' is a public instance variable with type int.
    + thing(int, int) : intmeans that 'thing()' is a public instance method that takes 2 int arguments and returns an int.

  • Trouble with PointAttributes class

  • Trouble with compiling class that contains "import com.sun.xacml.*;"

    I think the package com.sun.xacml is included in j2sdk 1.4.2 (the one that I have)
    but every time I try to compile a class that importes this package classes, the compiler dosen't recognize the package.
    It's a problem of updating the CLASSPATH?
    Thanks in advance

    I don't think this would be part of any standard java distribution.
    But I found a couple of jars (versions) available for download at

  • Trouble with inner class

    Hi,
    your code isn't complete and misses the jlogonOptionPane definition. If you use
    package adf.sample.view;
    import java.beans.PropertyChangeEvent;
    import java.beans.PropertyChangeListener;
    import javax.swing.JFrame;
    import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
    public class MyClass extends JFrame{
    private int mvariable = 2;
    MyClass(){
    function1();
    private void function1(){
    JOptionPane jlogonOptionPane = new JOptionPane();
    jlogonOptionPane.addPropertyChangeListener(new PropertyChangeListener() {
    public void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent e) {
    // here, i wan to use Variable
    }// fuction1
    }// myclass
    set the curser after
    // here, i wan to use Variable
    - hold the ctrl key and press the blank key
    - type mv and you will se mvariable

  • Bluetooth 4.66 configuration issues(troubles with device class)

    Good time of a day. On every reboot my bluetooth adapter's class switched to 0x4a0100, and this makes receiving files impossible.
    But, when i run 'hciconfig hci0 class 0x5a0100' it succesfully works. In /etc/bluetooth/main.conf i've changed class to this value, but bluez ignores it(but only first three numbers 4a0, the last changes according to config file). So - am i doing it wrong, or maybe just issue of adapter?
    Tech.details:
    adapter:  ASUSTek Computer, Inc. BT-253 Bluetooth Adapter(Manufacturer - Broadcom)
    bluez: 4.66-1
    kernel: 2.6.34-2
    main.conf:

    Well the setps which you have mentions i feel its perfectly right. Let me also try this things at my end. I think this should work.

  • Do you have trouble with iPod Classic and Ford's SYNC?

    Anyone have trouble with Ford SYNC recognizing iPod Classic? When I first bought my Lincoln my iPod Classic worked perfectly--just like it should with Ford SYNC. But a few months ago, when I plug in the iPod using a USB cable I get the message on Ford Sync that says, "incompatible device". At first I thought it was a ford problem so I began testing using a 2010 Buick and a 2010 Lincoln Navigator. My iPod classic doesn't work in either. However, a iPod nano works perfectly in either car. Also if I put some of my music on a flash drive it works fine in the Lincoln. So, I'm convinced that the problem is some type of update that occurred to my iPod or to iTunes.
    I have tried several iPod Classics and several USB cables so it is definitely aiPod Classic software problem. By the way, my iPod Classics work fine by themselves--just not through Ford's SYNC.
    I'm pretty lost as to possible solutions.
    Thanks,

    I have done some experimenting and testing with my old Classic iPod that uses operating system 3.1.1. I don't think this operating system has changed. However, later generation iPods such as nano, shuffle that use a different operating system seem to work absolutely perfectly in my 2010 Lincoln Navigator, especially the ones without a hard drive (i.e. flash drive). My conclusion is that the Ford SYNC updates have somehow not been backward compatible with the older operating system. I know this can be attributed to Apple for part of the problem but I suspect that Ford somehow did not do enough testing with the older iPod operating systems. Turns out there are probably 7 or more operating systems on iPods and while you would assume that "backward compatibility" is a no-brainer, that seems not to be the case with second party vendors such as Ford SYNC. Personally, I have given up trying to solve this problem and have gone to flash drive and a "line in" option. My old Classic iPod works exceptionally well, plus I have a spare so I can probably use these thing till "H freezes over". Being a older retired American these things may actually last a life time!

    Searching on the web, most results I found lead to this page, where it is said that the problem is due to badly tuned overcurrent protection, and advocated that unplugging and switching off the computer for a little while gets things back into normal. This does not really work for me; the problem seems to occur more randomly, unfortunately with high probability (my camera is available after less than one boot out of ten).
    I tried to ensure that the ehci-hcd module is loaded at boot with the ignore-oc option (with a file in /etc/module-load.d/), to no avail.
    I also wrote a script which alternatively removes and reloads the ehci-pci driver until my device is found in lsusb. It is sometimes helpful, but usually not. And even when my device is found that way, it can only be used for a while before disappearing again.
    Anyway, such a hack is unacceptable... So, my questions are:
    is it indeed related to overcurrent protection ?
    is there anything else I can try ?
    should I file somewhere an other of the numerous bug reports about "unable to enumerate USB device" already existing ?
    If of any importance, I am running linux 3.15.7, because at the time I installed my system, I couldn't get the hybrid graphic card Intel/AMD working under 3.16.

  • A trouble with "LIKE" in a select statement

    Hi!
    I'm having trouble with "LIKE" in a select statement...
    With Access I can make the following and everything works well:
    SELECT name, birthday
    FROM client
    WHERE birthday LIKE '*/02/*';
    but if try to do it in my application (it uses Access), it doesn't work - I just can't understand that!!!
    In my application the "month" is always the currently month taken from the "System". Look what I'm doing...
    String query1 = "SELECT name, birthday " +
              "FROM client " +
              "WHERE birthday " +
              "LIKE '*/" +
              pMonth +
              "/*' " +
              "ORDER BY birthday ASC ";
    ResultSet rs = statement1.executeQuery(consulta1);
    boolean moreRecords = rs.next();
    The variable "moreRecords" is always "false", the query returns nothing although the table "client" has records that attend the query.
    Please, anyone can help me?! It's a little bit urgent.
    Thanks,
    Katia.

    Hi Katia,
    I'll bet the problem lies with the characters you're using to escape the LIKE clause. You're using the ones that Access likes to see, but that's not necessarily what's built into the JDBC-ODBC driver class.
    You can find out what the correct escape wildcard characters are from the java.sql.DatabaseMetaData.getSearchStringEscape() method. It'll tell you what to use in the LIKE clause.
    I'm not 100% sure about your code. It doesn't use query1 anywhere. I'd do this:
    String query = "SELECT name, birthday FROM client WHERE birthday LIKE ? ORDER BY birthday ASC";
    PreparedStatement statement = connection.createStatement(query);
    String escape = connection.getMetaData().getSearchStringEscape();
    String test = escape + '/' + pMonth + '/' + escape;
    statement.setString(1, test);
    ResultSet rs = statement.executeQuery();
    while (rs.hasNext())
    // load your data into a data structure to pass back.
    rs.close();
    statement.close();Let me know if that works. - MOD

  • The trouble with 'expression' -- how to edit that

    I just walked to the corner bodega ( even though its korean sooo bodega is misleading ).. to get some beer...
    ITS BEER THIRTY -- yipee !
    and on way back down the block where I live ( which is suburban ) some boy kid on a bike was riding and playing with a girl kid ( probably was his slightly older sister - these kids probably around 12 years old ) in front of a rental property with some spanish americans hanging out in their cemented yard on hammocks near bar b q...with their own kids...(they have planted another hopeful "veg garden" around the perimeter of their so called yard...tomato plants etc )...so anyway, the picture here is a "neighborhood" of sorts with a somewhat lower middle class family atmosphere in a fairly lower class area on the verge of becoming middle class ( with God's help ).
    And anyway, I passed by the boy kid on the bike and smiled at him cause he seemed to be a decent kid having fun with his friend ( they were sorta laughing about something and having fun before I showed up as the big "adult" and looked at me ). His smile back was like sunshine and true and he immediately recognized he could keep having fun with his friend and I wasn't a "threat" , but instead some sorta "neighbor".  She did the same more or less ( I think she had some devious design re: the game they were playing ... like " OK, you think you're so great on that bike, try to CHASE me ! " or something like that....kid stuff... and fun thank God.  This neighborhood has it's share of bad things going on in the streets at times.  And that leads to my focus on " The trouble with expression".
    A lot of people, like me for example, can't express themselves well in some ways. I didn't say , " Hi there kids !  What's new ? " when I met them on the way back from the bodega.  I didn't stop and ask what the heck they were laughing about.  Nor did I speak to the spanish people adjacent to the kids ...in their "yard" ...with the bar b q and hammock and obvious friday afternoon socializing they were into....
    We in nyc area are typically a mixed bag of races... I'm white, kids were african amer ( black but more like brownish if you ask me ), spanish people like mexicans IMO... who cares.  This is suburbia so you can imagine how more mixed it is in the city.
    Anyway, the reason I don't express myself so well in situations like that ( spontaneously on the street ) is cause I used to stutter real bad as a kid.. couldnt talk... so I clamed up. All my life I've been fighting that disability ( and other "challenges" re: learning, reading , writing, asthma , etc ) in terms of the "repercusions".  Kids like me make fun of me cause I stutter...I can't fight back verbally and lash out physically... become a "maniac".  Get kicked out of city schools etc...  Trouble maker.  Can't express myself, fight back with words....when kids are mean to me. After a while they dont matter much as if they are mean I just keep quiet and keep mouth shut and start "thinking" instead... how to keep on top of this person and not let things get crazy... meet the challenge.
    Turns out I'm not stupid and at some point my being " quiet" becomes a positive thing.. peers start asking my advice.. I'm suddenly a " deep thinker" in their eyes.  I go from being disabled ( stupid ) to being " a deep thinker" about the age of puberty... when nobody knows what they are doing anymore.
    I start thinking about expressing myself some other way than talking.. like maybe draw pictures... paint stuff, do things to have fun with people that doesnt put me in the " limelight".. where I have to talk etc.  More success follows this tendency to socialize and express myself... and I discover that chics like the strong silent type.
    ( I have been into gymnastics thru my fathers infactuation with it since age 2 -- which I think eventually ( inadvertantly ) " cured me " of many of my learning disabilities etc --  (talk to an OT about this and modern child development stuff to know what I mean here )
    Meanwhile I am very fond of dogs as my family has dogs one after the other and I am one of their best friends. I find I can communicate with dogs better than I can communicate with people sometimes.  This seems to be a problem in some cases with some people, but for me it never got crazy... where I " loved dogs " more than I " love people ".  I have never loved any dog more than any person and shudder when I think of those who do.  Those people who do have more problems than I ever had to deal with.
    And now, after all these years ( I am now 60 ), working on movies and tv stuff etc as a crew person with some college fine art schooling ( eventual photo major ) to get me started, I got into this " editing " stuff... A program I can actually " use " on my mousey computer introduces me to a more " final product " than I ever had access to before.
    BUT I don't shoot motion pic stuff, cant afford that - and never could before basically, and now I think about the triple threats and future of movies and tv as a business... as well as the tools ( in this case the editing programs in conjunction with the cameras ( arri, panavision etc ) ) and the desire to express something ...
    This has to be ( if you want an audience ) ... " tell a story ".  You could just put a camera on a rocket ( strap it to the rocket ) and shoot the takeoff etc and show that.. but you need a V.O. saying " well, I just shot off a rocket and this is what it looked like"...to bring the experience to the audience... or else IMO there is no story.
    Which leads to what's going on now in the world of reality tv, episodic tv , some big movies, etc.  Telling a story is more than showing you stuff that you just wouldnt have seen if you hadn't been there yourself. Telling a story is more like saying something that bridges the gap between your own experience of life and its challenges ( of being part of your neighborhood and making sense of your own childhood and being an adult now maybe ).. and what others also have gone through to get to the same conclusions....
    This is the object of " expression" IMO, whether you can talk about it, draw pictures about it, or make music about it...
    And the editing program is a tool to help do that.. it is not the end all or purpose of life or the " personal crusade" in the long run.
    It's one reason scary snakes often shock people out of their desire for comfort and predictable living... makes you think about that one serpent in the garden of eden you create for yourself .... and IMO who cares what editing program you use to write that and shoot it ??

    Steve Grisetti, the MOD of the Premiere Elements forum and co-founder of a video/photo/editing Web site, Muvipix, did a nice article, "Don't just make a movie - tell a story." His audience was more consumer video editors, than the folk that we see around here, but his points were well-made, and were embraced by many in the Muvipix community.
    I think that too many, forget that concept - and I am talking Hollywood and NYC here. It's almost as if, when the story breaks down, they instinctively know to throw in a car chase, or big explosion.
    I know that I cite it too often around The Lounge, but that was what I enjoyed most about the LOR trilogy. It told a story. Now, though I had some exposure to the story, when much younger, I have to admit that I never read Tolkien, though almost everyone, that I knew, was busy with every book. Still, I only knew some of the high points, and not much more. However, almost immediately, I was drawn into the story, and only wished that I did not have to wait so long between episodes. The FX were cool, and I am a technoid sort, but it was the story that hooked me. I had read several articles on the FX production, so WAS looking for some of that, but what I wanted was the story. This is one that I will buy the BD "Director's Cut" of, and do a marathon. I have seen each segment, maybe three times, but never back to back to back. I still need to fill in a few blanks, and an entire day of viewing should do that - no phone, no visitors, nothing but LOR.
    As far as human communications, I can talk, even more than I write here, but only concerning things that I care about. I am horrible at "small talk," and would rather addrss an auditorium of 10,000, on something that matters to me, than talk about the weather to a single person at a fund raiser. Not that long ago, I was seated next to a potential donor at a charity dinner. I was rather dreading it, and when she mentioned that she did not drink (what, no wine?), I was worried. At some point, early in the evening, the subject turned to politics. Now, I usually am very quiet on my feelings, as they are not exaclty politically correct, and worry about hurting feelings, or making a scene. I fielded a question on Senatorial candidates, and just decided to answer from my heart. Her eyes lit up, and I did not notice that the event had ended. Her husband was standing, as was my wife, and we were talking politics, talk-radio, FoxNews, Senator John Kyl, Will Rogers and much more. I found that we were kindred spirits. Finally, our spouses pulled us apart, and we departed. We continued that conversation at 2 - 3 more events during "the season." One day, my wife informed me that she had just given $10M to the foundation - the largest single gift ever. At least she wasn't a screaming liberal, as I would surely have really messed up the deal... However, had it all been small talk, I would have found a reason to excuse myself and hide in the bar for a few hours.
    Also, the way that our society has developed, I will smile, nod, and say "hello" to strangers on the street, but always leave it at that. I am sure that many walk past and think "he wasn't all that friendly." They are probably right, but at least I was pleasant to them and did not rob them! Heck, I will usually tell telemarketers, "No, but thank you for your generous offer on that time-share... "

  • Trouble with "body" images lining up at the top

    Hi, I am having troubles with the #body style in my web page. I have inserted a table into the #body area and the the body editable region will not line up on the top with the sideBar editable region when I add text and apply my css to it. Can you look at the code and let me know what I am doing wrong? Thanks!

    You have your image in the 'body editable region' wrapped in <p></p> tags (paragraph tags). <p> tags have padding and margin set on them by default.
    <p><img src="/images/aboutus2.jpg" width="675" height="300" /></p>
    You can either just remove the <p></p> tags or you can zero out the padding and margin:
    p {
    padding: 0;
    margin: 0;
    Unfortuanately the above will target every paragraph on your page which might not be desirable so I would just remove the <p> tags as it is not necessary to wrap an image in them.
    If you do want to keep the <p> tags then use some inline css to specifically remove the padding and margin on that particular one:
    <p style="padding: 0; margin: 0;"><img src="/images/aboutus2.jpg" width="675" height="300" /></p>
