Why does the Java API use int instead of short or byte?

Why does the Java API use int if short or even byte would be sufficient?
Example: The DAY_OF_WEEK field in Calendar uses int.

One of the point is, on the benchmark tests on Java performance, int does far better than short and byte data types.

  • Why does the macbook pro use both types of storage?

    Why does the 13inch retina have both the 8gb hardrive and the flashdrive?

    Oops reading your question again, I see there is a misunderstanding:
    http://www.apple.com/macbook-pro/specs-retina/
    The 8GB is not hard drive memory.  It is chip memory just for multi-tasking purposes, and it can be custom configured to 16 GB of multi-tasking memory.  If you wanted to store applications or data files on it, you can create a RAM disk, but it actually would be copying the information off the SSD.  There is no "permanent" storage of data on the 8GB or 16GB of RAM.
    There is no platter hard drive anymore.
    The 128 GB is the SSD memory on the 13" model by default, and can be custom configured to 512GB of SSD memory.
    The odd thing is your SSD can do swap file storage for multitasking, but also doubles as your place to store actual data files.
    For awhile Apple mixed both platter and SSD.  Looks like that is no longer the case at least with the 13" Retina.
    SSD memory is comparable to hard drive memory in that it is more "permanent" storage after reboot.  Calling it permanent is a misnomer though, since hard drives and SSDs can both fail without any warning, and a backup is always recommended:

  • Why does the app store use so much bandwidth?

    My download is taking days and slowing down the connection for everyone else at home. With the download as slow as it is, it shouldn't have the effect it is. Is the app store similar to a bit torrent client? Is there file sharing happening? Does the download improve if the app is not free? I would hesitate to buy anything else using the app store? How long does it take to download something really big like Lion?

    It is not a bit torrent. The download usually depends on your ISP's service. My 10 mega service usually downloads things in a couple of minutes. Lion took a couple of hours because it is 7 GB or so.
    Something is wrong. I would check with the ISP.

  • Why does the move command move down instead of up?

    When I have an object selected and hit "Enter" it brings up the "Move" dialog box... why do positive vertical numbers move the item down and negative move it up?
    It was opposite before (going through Illustrator 3 through CS.) Is there a way to change it back?

    Tilde,
    They have reversed the Y axis. But you can unreverse it and get back to what you are used to.
    To change the ruler origin (and direction of the Y axis) in CS5 - CC(2014) to be the same as in CS4 and earlier, you may:
    A) Install and run the script in the OP of this thread,http://forums.adobe.com/thread/890507?tstart=30
    or
    B) Manually change the relevant preference settings as follows:
    0) Close down Illy (you can only change the preference file with Illy closed);
    1) Find and open the AIPrefs (Win speak) or Adobe Illustrator Prefs (Mac speak) file withe a text editor like Notepad or TextEdit; the preference file is a (hidden) file in the (hidden) folder Adobe Illustrator CS5 Settings
    2): Find and change the following two bits of code:
    /isRulerOriginTopLeft 1 >>> /isRulerOriginTopLeft 0 (change 1 to 0)
    /isRulerIn4thQuad 1 >>> /isRulerIn4thQuad 0 (change 1 to 0)
    This is a global change so you only have to do it once (just as you can undo it once).
    You may find the folder as described in <em><strong><a href="http://www.bugge.com/Family-and-friends/Illy/illy.html"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Move the folder</span></a></strong></em>.

  • Why does the Java script work on my RSS feed work for Internet explorer but not for Firefox?

    I have finished building the website for my Girlfriend and the only thing left is the RSS feed. It works just fine in IE 8 but in Fire Fox 9 when the widget is clicked a bookmark box pops up and asks if I want to save it as a bookmark. I am not a Java script programer so I am hoping for some help here!! Here is the script:
    <li id="rss"><a href="http://www.susangabrielle.com/1/feed" title="RSS" alt="rss"><img src="/files/theme/rss.png"></a></li>
    The sight is http://www.susangabrielle.com

    Presumably you fixed it, the RSS seems to work for me

  • Why does the email button attach xml instead of pdf?

    Sorry, it's probably a stupid question, but I can't figure it out! Thanks a million!

    Hi Diana. You can use the Button object (not a Submit button) and modify it to submit the PDF version of your document.
    After you've placed a button in your layout;
    1) click on the Object tab
    2) Select "Submit" as your Control Type
    when you've done this, a "Submit" tab will appear
    3) Click on the "Submit" tab
    4) Change the "Submit Format" to "PDF"
    5) Add the e-mail address in the "Submit to URL" field (as below);

  • If Oracle 9iFS doesn't support JWS why does the 9i documentation use JWS?

    Oracle 9iFS says to use Apache and that Oracle no longer
    supports JWS for that version. However, the developer
    documentation regarding the registering of servlets only shows
    how to register them using JWS. There is nothing about how to
    register the servlets (I am going through the content management
    sample application) using Apache. When I put the classes in the
    ifs custom_classes directory and then put the servlet in a zone
    under the Apache/Jserv directory (outside of ifs) how do I get
    the servlet to know where the rest of the classes in the package
    are? I'm also having the problem that only servlets that I
    write which are NOT part of a package will run from the Apache
    servlet zone. If there is a package identified in the class it
    won't run. Not even if I precede the name of the servlet with
    the name of the package. It won't even work if the servlet is
    the only class in the package.
    Has anyone done this on Apache?
    Thanks.

    Well in the meantime can you point us to documentation or
    examples of implementing servlets unser 9.0.1 as I have exactly
    the problems mentioned by Chris.
    BTW, Chris, I wouldn't apologise for the tone; trying to make
    any sense out of this documentation is frustrating. Come on
    Oracle, this should be better now, now in some unscheduled time
    in the future. The product is released; it is not beta..

  • Why does the Right-click - "t" delete a bookmark on the bookmark toolbar, when Right-click - "t" opens a new tab elsewhere. The bookmark toolbar use Right-click - "w" to open in a new tab. Please change this to "t" to...

    Why does the Right-click -> "t" delete a bookmark on the bookmark toolbar, when Right-click -> "t" opens a new tab elsewhere in Firefox. The bookmark toolbar use Right-click -> "w" to open in a new tab. Please change this to "t" to... I keep deleting all my bookmark because you don't make the commands consistent!

    If you have accidentally removed bookmarks then use "Organize > Undo" in the bookmarks manager (Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks) to get them back.<br />
    The Organize button is the first of the three buttons on the toolbar in the Library (Bookmarks Manager).<br />
    That only works if you haven't closed Firefox.

  • Why does the iTunes 10.4.1 update take me to Apple's download webpage instead of the usual Safari/Quicktime dialog box?

    Why does the iTunes 10.4.1 update take me to to Apple's download webpage (to download a full version of iTunes) instead of the usual Safari/Quicktime pop-up/dialog box where I usually perform the updates?

    iTunes 10.4 and Safari 5.1 contain more than 'just' the OSX Lion-release but stability and security improvements as well.
    For example, here is http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1070 what the Safari 5.1 contains.
    In here http://www.apple.com/macosx/uptodate/ I can't find an "end-date" for the download of the Lion installer.
    Nonetheless, personaly I would download the Lion installer and then copy it (from your Apllications folder) to a secure place (backup harddisk, external hardisk etc.).
    When your IT gives it a go you can then use te Lion installer from inside the Applications folder, but I would also say to make a bootable clone of your current OSX Snow Leopard before starting the Lion installation.

    Using Windows 7 and LR 5,  when I look at the Keyword List a certain keyword has 7 pictures but when I check the Library Filter with that keyword 350 pictures are shown which includes the 7 pictures that have the keyword.  Why does the Library Filter showing pictures that do not match the query

    Dan,
    Here's what's going on in the catalog you sent me, "Joel & Caitlin's Wedding".  There is the keyword "gwenn", which is explicitly assigned to 7 pics. But keyword "schwartz" has a number of synonyms, including "gwenn", and it is assigned to 25 pics.  There is no overlap between the two sets of pics. 
    I discovered these two occurrences by doing Metadata > Export Keywords, opening the exported file in an editor, and then searching for "gwenn".  I found two occurrences of "gwenn":
    gwenn
    schwartz
        {gwenn}
    From this, you can see that the keyword "schwartz" has 9 synonyms, of which "gwenn" is one.
    The filter criterion "Keywords Contain gwenn" will match the 7 pics that are explicitly assigned the keyword "gwenn", and it will also match the 25 pics assigned the keyword "schwartz", because that keyword has a synonym "gwenn".
    This illustrates the behavior I mentioned above: The criterion "Keywords contains x" will match against any of a pic's assigned keywords, any of those keywords' ancestor keywords, and any of the synonyms of the assigned keywords and their ancestors.
    So LR is operating correctly here, if not in a way that's easy to understand. 
    It appears that you are using the synonyms of "schwartz" to represent individual members of the Schwartz family.  A better way of representing family relationships is to have a parent keyword "Schwartz", with subkeywords for each family member, e.g. "Gwenn Schwartz", "Joe Schwartz", "Jane Schwartz", etc.  Repeating the family name in the subkeywords has a couple of advantages. LR usually only displays the "leaf" name of a keyword, so instead of showing you just "Joe", it will show you "Joe Schwartz", helpful when there are a number of different people whose first name is "Joe".  Also, if you ever export your pics to other software, it may not understand the LR hierarchy and won't show the parent keywords, so again it's more informative to see a keyword named "Joe Schwartz" rather than "Joe".
