What's the best way to ID machines that need Jave SE 6 Update 14?

I've just read the update release notes ( http://java.sun.com/javase/6/webnotes/6u14.html ) for the Java SE 6 Update 14 and I want to deploy it to our systems. I've never been real good at knowing just how to identify what version of Java a machine had. Because we're all Windows here, we usually look for products that are registered in Add / Remove Programs and that does the job for us. However, I'm not sure what the versioning should be for this update. Does anyone have the answer to this?

Yes, that looks like the best way to identify the verison. I just get confused about the various versions and how they may or may not be related. For example, in the release notes, they talk about the 6u14 baseline and they mention other related version numbers
Security Baseline
6u14 specifies the following security baselines for use with Java Plug-in technology: JRE Family Version Java SE
Security Baseline Java SE for Business
Security Baseline
5.0 1.5.0_18 1.5.0_18
1.4.2 1.4.2_19 1.4.2_20
I guess my question should have been worded, what "numbers" should I be searching for in Add/Remove Programs? 6.0, 5.0, 1.5.x or 1.4x?

  • What is the best way to be sure that there is no virus

    Hi guys,
    thanks for your responds,
    I believe my laptop has a virus or spyware. It is slow and take ages to comes up. Also during using internet exploring it is very slow in internet browsing.
    During use of msn chat voice sometime it freeze.
    What is the best way to be sure that there is no virus.
    I already have Norton 2007 with the latest update.
    thanks

    Hi
    > What is the best way to be sure that there is no virus?
    The best way is to use an Antivirus application and some Anti malware and Trojan applications.
    You use already the Norton Antivirus program. This is great. Be sure that this application is always up-to-date.
    Additional you could install Adaware. This is freeware tool and it scans your OS for malware.
    But the virus or malware is not always a reason for an OS freezing.
    Please check your processes which are running in the OS background. You can use additionally the application called CClean.
    It scans you OS for troubles and repair the registry.
    Maybe it helps

  • What is the best way to call SSH commands through Java technologies

    What is the best way to call SSH commands through Java technologies

    I don't think you can specify the password at the prompt using ssh. Plink has the -pw command option for passwords. What I did was except ssh to ask me and write the password programmatically through the outputStream I obtained from my Process object. I looked for "password: ", and then wrote the password with a trailing newline.
    Both plink and ssh will also ask if you trust the host if it is the first time you are connecting to it. So before just writing the password, check if the program wants verification from you: normally supplying "y" or "n". This should only have to happen the first time the client connects. It looks like thisPLINK:
    The server's host key is not cached in the registry. You
    have no guarantee that the server is the computer you
    think it is.
    The server's key fingerprint is:
    1024 f8:43:61:4c:a2:5b:77:be:5b:a7:bb:1f:f7:79:b3:b7
    If you trust this host, enter "y" to add the key to
    PuTTY's cache and carry on connecting.
    If you want to carry on connecting just once, without
    adding the key to the cache, enter "n".
    If you do not trust this host, press Return to abandon the
    connection.
    Store key in cache? (y/n)
    SSH:
    The authenticity of host '127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1)' can't be established.
    RSA key fingerprint is e1:02:13:c8:52:c2:23:41:9b:5b:58:2c:18:e6:59:af.
    Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?What I did was read character by character from the inputStream until I found things of interest ... like "password: ". You only need to search for this in your method which will launch the ssh or plink Process. Once you have verifyed yourself, you can just pass commands to the Process, which is an ssh connection.
    My suggestion is to read() each byte from the Process's inputStream and write it to stdout. Look and see what you need to be looking for so you can interactive with the program correctly. You can't use readLine here becuase when the ssh asks for the password it does not print a newline. I do know for sure, that ssh will simply print, "passowrd: ". Plink will print this as well if the -pw option is not supplied.

  • What is the best way to handle collections that contains different object

    Hi
    Suppose i have two class as below
    class Parent {
           private String name;
    class Child extends Parent {
          private int childAge;
    }I have a list that can contains both Child and Parent Object but in my jsp i want to display a childAge attribute ( preferrably not to use scriplet )
    what is the best way to achieve this?

    Having a collection containing different object types is already a bad start.
    How are parent and child related to each other? Shouldn't Child be a property of Parent?
    E.g.public class Parent {
        private Child child;
    }In any way, you could in theory just check Object#getClass()#getName(), but this is a nasty design.

  • What is the best way to deploy application that uses web services?

    Hi all,
    I'm having some problems figuring out the best way to deploy our app now that we've switched over to using web services.
    I'm fairly new to Java and web services. From what I understand, JNLP and WebStart are methods to deploy Java clients to users and not for creating war files and the like.
    Here's a little background:
    We have a large PowerBuilder/Oracle application. The db consists of over 500 tables and the client consists of several thousand PB components. A user creates "transactions" which contain a series of "sub-transactions" within. Most of the data is collected and stored locally in the client in a series of datastores. When the "finalize" happens, the records are validated and sent to the database.
    We are in the process of moving each of the subtransactions (currently in the PB client) into subPROCESSES on a java project. We are using the JAX-WS framework to develop the web services in Netbeans. These web services aren't much more than remote xml as the messaging technology. For writing data back to the database, we are using the Java Persistence API to function outside of an EJB container but will shortly be migrating to the Glassfish application server to use several of the EJB container frameworks including the EntityManager.
    We haven't attempted any type of deployment and are unsure of where to start. Any suggestions would be so helpful and appreciated!
    Thanks!

It is for launching rich client GUI based (AWT, Swing, SWT..) applications onto the end-user's desktop.
    There are some parts of JWS that might seem peripherally useful to the installation of a web-app., but it is really not a 'good fit'.

    after doing an apple update, my ipad will not respond, all i get is the itunes plug in.  I want to make sure to restore everthing that was on my ipad?

    The iTunes and plug icons are telling you that the iPad is in recovery mode. Connect the iPad to the computer you normally sync with and restore the iPad. You can use your most recent backup to restore your content. If you haven't backed up your iPad then your content is lost.

  • What's the best way to check whether a user is logged in or not?

    I have a question about basic session handling.
    I'm running Tomcat 5.0.30 and have a web application where users can register with a username and password, and then log into a "member site".
    What is the best way of making sure that a user actually has logged in or not?
    What I've done in previous applications I've made is that I've just put a simple variable into the users session after he has successfully entered his password (i.e. Boolean loggedIn=true). Then I just test if this flag is true to grant him access to the member site. Is that a smart way of doing it?
    Are there any libraries I can use which handles sessions for me in a secure way?
    All comments and suggestions are appreciated!

    Maintain a flag using session attributes it to one when the user is logs in set it to value.... and change set it zero or invalidate that session... when the user is logged out...
    use something like this while user had logged in
    session.setAttribute("flag",<unique_number>);
    for checking whether the user had logged in or not...
    if(Integer.parseInt(session.getAttribute("flag").toString())=!<unique_number>){
    out.println("The session had expired");
    out.close();
    }

  • What is the best way to organize a tree-like structure of constants?

    Hello everone!
    Need help with organizing my constants structrure.
    I have several tables, and each of them need a list of column names to define the fields returned after query, and also a corresponding list of hashmap keys because that columnnames are ugly. Hashmap is where I store the result of searching through the table. This question is not about JDBC because I search through tables via COM interface, no JDBC ResultSets and other stuff here.
    Finally, for each table I have two constant lists and I have a list of tables. What is the best way to store this?
    My first idea was to create a enum and store column data in it as String array attributes: String[] columnNames; etc.
    But in this case I cannot use each column and key separately.
    Another option is to create two separate enums for each table: columnNames enum and keys enum. That doesn't look great also.
    The third option is to create inner class for each table and store two enums in each of that classes.
    Also I can store all data in hashmaps, Strings etc.
    (1) Finally, from your experience, what is the best way to organize all that stuff?
    (2) I have heard that smart Java programmer should avoid using the enums by any means. Do you agree?
    (3) Generally what will you prefer when creating a constant which has two values: two final Integers or enum?
    Edited by: Dmitry_MSK on Jul 8, 2010 5:22 AM

    I'm not sure why you don't just invent a generic data structure (e.g., table name, list of column names and aliases of column names) such as:
    class QueryMetaData {
      private final String tableName;
      private final String[] columnNames;
      private final String[] columnAliases;
    }Read into the above structure from a properties file, database table, etc. You can store meta-data itself in places other than enum constants, particularly if would like to change the meta-data without requiring a new build of your application.
    That having been said, WRT to your specific questions:
    (1) Finally, from your experience, what is the best way to organize all that stuff?See above
    (2) I have heard that smart Java programmer should avoid using the enums by any means. Do you agree?Enums are better than simple constants using int or String or something similar. If there are known, discrete values unlikely to change frequently, I see no issues with an enum. They improve the readability of code, and there are enough syntactic sugar features in the language (switch statements come to mind) to make them appealing.

  • What is the best way to organize queue in R/3?

    Hi,
    I'm in a middle of a project, where I should implement queue in order to sync data between 2 systems - r/3 and legasy one. I have few user exits (or bussiness events), which could be rised concurently in time, and I need only 1 instance of the sync module to run at a time. Well, I know the technique to prevent a program from running in multiple processes, and I have an idea how to organize a queue (my idea is to use transparent table to track actions which should be sync-ed), but there allways are some 'bottlenecks' that should be considered in such an implementation.
    That's why it might be of great help if someone could share his/her knowledge on this topic or point me to the right paper/docu, if available.
    I just don't want to reinvent the wheel, if possible
    Many thanks in advance.

    I have a iMac Desktop and MacBook Pro laptop. I generate my work related files on both of these machines. After a few days or weeks, I have new files on some folders on either of the machines that is not on the other machine. What is the best way to keep the files in these machines synchronized?

    How did you transfer the files to the iMac.  If you exported the files out of the MB library using Kind = Current you should get the edited version.  Any other  option may not.
    If you want to keep the two libraries "synced"  any photos you want to move to the iMac should be added to an album, connect the two Mac with a LAN, Target Disk Mode,  Transferring files between two computers using FireWire, with WiFi. and use the paid version of  iPhoto Library Manager to copy that album from the MB library to iMac library.  It will also copy the original and edited versions, keywords, titles, etc.

    This is a common mistake and I highly advise against it.
    1: TimeMachine saves states of changes and thus requires more room on the TM drive than the boot drive it's backing up.
    2: Something happens to the TM drive, loss, theft, dropped, power surge, etc., you lose both backups.
    3: The storage drive might become a portable need, with it being on the TM drive, now your increasing the risk to the TM backup that something could happen to it along with the storage drive, due to increased movement.
