Thank youA servlet is an example of a plugin, a class which is pulled in and run by a larger system.
Context information relates to the context in which the plugin is run. In the case of a servlet it's information concerning the web application of which the servlet is a part.

  • GetResponseCode() returns -1,what does it mean

    Hi ,
    The HttpURLConnection class's getResponseCode() method returns -1.
    getResponseMessage() returns null.i m accessing my servlet through a proxy.i know only about 1xx to 5xx codes.i dont know what does it mean by -1.But at server side the request is properly sent and processed and i m getting 200 and ok after processing at serverside. the object is sent to client also. but it is not received by the client.
    Null object is returned.I think proxy is the culprit.If anyone can help me what -1 means,it will be really greatfull to diagnoise my issue in detail and solve my problem soon.
    Your help will be greatfull.
    Thanks
    prakash

    As it says perfectly clearly, right there in the API documentation for the method:
    "Returns -1 if no code can be discerned from the response (i.e., the response is not valid HTTP)."

  • What does this mean ---- load-on-startup 1 /load-on-startup

    Hi All,
    Anybody please tell me what does this mean:
    <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
    Thanks in advance
    amitindia

    From the dtd :
    The load-on-startup element indicates that this servlet should be
    loaded (instantiated and have its init() called) on the startup
    of the web application. The optional contents of
    these element must be an integer indicating the order in which
    the servlet should be loaded. If the value is a negative integer,
    or the element is not present, the container is free to load the
    servlet whenever it chooses. If the value is a positive integer
    or 0, the container must load and initialize the servlet as the
    application is deployed. The container must guarantee that
    servlets marked with lower integers are loaded before servlets
    marked with higher integers. The container may choose the order
    of loading of servlets with the same load-on-start-up value.

  • What does synchronisation mean? What data is being synchronised?

    On my 80GB IpoD classic I replace music several times. After successful transfer of imported CDs from the mediathek onto the Ipod I finally clean up the mediathek; that means:
    Mediathek and IpoD can never be synchron because of a clompletely different contents. (I manually administer my IpoD)
    Synchron to me means: 2 or more different parts do exactly the same thing.
    my question:
    What does synchronsation mean in this context? What info has to be synchronized between Ipod and mediathek?
    Thanks for answering

    You are correct that the common meaning of synchronise is to make two things the same. iTunes uses this term slightly loosely but if you set your device to sync with selections from your iTunes library, e.g, certain playlists, podcasts, TV shows etc. then changes in those part of your library can be automatically reflected on the device. For iTunes syncronisation is one way - from iTunes to the device - although it can also transfer purchased items from the device back to iTunes. When automatically syncing it can also update play counts & last played dates both from iTunes to the device and from the device to iTunes.
    If you manually manage your iPod then it will still have data that needs to be copied to it or deleted at some point. Whenever data is being modified on the device it will display the "syncronising" screen.

  • HT201272 Some songs are greyed out while others are black. What does this mean and how can I change it? I'm tired of only 2 or 3 songs from an album repeating while the others disappear off the "Up next".

    Please help....I hate iTunes to begin with. Especially the latest they have come up with. Layout drives me crazy. And now....I find maybe a couple of songs in an album as "black" and the other titles are greyed out. What does this mean? I find it very frustrating as the black titles will repeat but the others seem to just disappear off the "play next" list. How can I fix this? And no...downloading from iCloud hasn't helped any.

    This sounds like you have some unchecked tracks. These are skipped during track to track playback. The track names are slightly greyed out in the album view. You can normally see the check boxes from the Songs view or you can change the status via the rght-click context menu.

  • What does "wheel" mean for custom access

    What does "wheel" mean when allowing custom access to a folder?

    wheel= admin
    In computing, the term wheel refers to a user account with a wheel bit, a system setting that provides additional special system privileges that empower a user to execute restricted commands that ordinary user accounts cannot access. The term is derived from the slang term big wheel, referring to a person with great power or influence. It was first used in this context with regard to the TENEX operating system, later distributed under the name TOPS-20 in the 1960s and early 1970s.
    The term was adopted by Unix users in the 1980s, due to the movement of operating system developers and users from TENEX/TOPS-20 to Unix. Modern Unix implementations generally include a security protocol that requires a user be a member of the wheel user privileges group in order to gain superuser access to a machine by using the su command.

  • What does SIGSEGV mean on ipad crash report

    What does SIGSEGV mean on ipad crash report

    Depends entirely on the context, but generally refers to a stack overflow issue.
    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.

    Hello,
    FYI -- "here", as in these forums (which are targeted at BB/RIM services rather than carrier services), would not be the best place to find out something specific for one carrier. With so many thousands of carriers with dozens of different plans each, it's pretty much impossible to keep track of the specifics. The generic information is this:
    http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/What_do_I_need_a_Data_Plan_for%3F
    But, there certainly can be variations on that given the different packages carriers put together. I do suggest you do as JSanders recommended -- contact your carrier and find out what you've signed up for.
    Good luck!
    Occam's Razor nearly always applies when troubleshooting technology issues!

    Why has my monitor suddenly begun to have a moiré pattern all over – it is even showing up on my icons on the dock? It appears to be very thin bright green vertical lines. I have a 2007 iMac which is running 10.6.8. What does this mean? I've attached some screen shots below.
    Also experiencing some funky issues with my wireless keyboard. With new batteries, it will just stop functioning. Certain keys intermittently won't work. Also the fans go on as soon as I turn the computer on - some times they stay on and sometimes they don't. Ever since upgrading the operating system - I've been having many issues with this iMac. Not happy. Any answers out there?

    Thanks for your reply LexSchellings, There is no disc in the drive and I went through the suggestions you put forward on the phone with Apple support without any luck. I can put a disc in but it pops straight back out again without registering on finder.
    The idea of using an external drive was to enable me to avoid the cost and loss of productivity whilst machine in repair... if I have to take it in to get the old drive removed than I might as well have a new internal drive put in, although I do worry about the reliability of these apple drives given my experience with this one coupled with my limited online research ... on line forums seem to be full of people with the same problem (although perhaps searching such forums is bound to make it seem a common problem as users with perfectly working machines are less likely to post (?)) Your reply suggests that no external drive will work whilst the existing drive is in place.
    As a postscript: I do realise that this is a user forum ...my secondary question was asking if anyone knows how to put forward a case/complaint to Apple... I can't find a link on the support page that would enable me to do so and I was wondering if anyone on this user forum had any ideas/experience..
