Mapping Java objects to Jackson JSON is pretty simple. But if you name a JSON field wrong, you'll get the "Unrecognized field ... (Class ...), not marked as ignorable" error. The rule for mapping a Java bean attribute name to a JSON field name is: lower all leading capital letters until the first lower case letter . For example, this Java class: package com.example; public class Person { ... maps to this JSON string: { "firstName": "Jane", "lastName": "... Test code: package com.example; import java.net.URL; ...

Here are some ways to run a main method using Maven: Use the exec plugin: mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="com.example.App" or, with arguments: mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="com.example.App" -... Attach it to a build phase with the build element: <build> <plugins> <plugin> ... If you want to run main from Maven, it's probably just some test code. You are better off just to write a test case, or call the main method from a test class: package com.example; import junit.framework...

This is a series of notes on building custom JSF 2.0 facelet taglibs, ordered from the simplest to the less simple. Hopefully it can help you to get started on how to build custom taglibs for JSF. A simple JSF facelets taglib example The simplest taglib I can think of. Using EL expression with a custom tag Make tag attributes dynamic. Mixing custom tag with facelet ui taglibs Discover things you might run into when you get into more details. Which EL context to use? Using the wrong EL context can lead to subtle bugs. JSF facelet taglib backed by a UI component A UIComponent can be a tag handler, without being TagHandler . Using tag handler, UI component and renderer with a JSF facelet...

My problem is simple: in my XML data, a timestamp is provided as a long integer (number of milliseconds since the "the epoch"). When I do XSLT, I want to display it as a readable string, such as "Mon Nov 01 18:08:48 CDT 2010". After hours of struggle, I found: It's not so easy to get the job done with JDK 1.6 There are tons of garbage on the web in this space (suggestions, code snippets that simply don't work) Simple Xalan extension functions was the only resource that's somewhat informative. Even there some of the examples don't work. Below is a list of what worked and what didn't. This works: <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="h... This does not (providing long value to Date constructor): <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="h......

Step 1: Repackage a web app as EAR A Java EE application is a multimodule Maven project. At the very least you'll need to package a WAR and an EAR. To get started, I'll simply re-package the simple webapp as an EAR. Create a directory named javaee-app Copy the webapp from here to javaee-app . Rename struts1app to webapp . Create pom.xml under javaee-app : <project> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>... Create a directory named ear under javaee-app . Create pom.xml under ear : <project> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>... Modify pom.xml in the webapp directory so that it looks like this: <project> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> ... Build with " mvn package " in the javaee-app directory. You can see that ear-1.0.ear is successfully generated in javaee-app/ear/target . Maven successfully resolves dependencies between the sub-projects....

I built a very basic JSF application and deployed to Tomcat 7.0.22, but it failed with this error: Caused by: java.lang.ClassFormatError: Absent Code... That looks weird and I wasn't able to find a sensible explanation! So I copied the jsf-api-2.1.jar , which was downloaded from the java.net Maven repository by Maven, into a temp folder. And tested it with this simple program: public class ClassFormatErrorTest { public ... I also copied servlet-api.jar from Tomcat's lib folder to the temp folder. Sure enough it failed with the same error: C:\tmp>java -cp .;jsf-api-2.1.jar;servlet-api.jar ... But when I replaced the javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet class with one I compiled from source, the error disappears! Conclusions: The jar file jsf-api-2.1.jar from java.net Maven repository is good for compilation only (cannot be used...

The Android unit test framework is based on JUnit 3 , not JUnit 4. Test cases have to extend junit.framework.TestCase or a subclass (such as android.test.InstrumentationTestCase ). Tests are identified by public methods whose name starts with test , not methods annotated with @Test (as in JUnit 4). An Android test suite is packaged as an APK, just like the application being tested. To create a test package, first you need to identify the application package it is testing. Google suggests to put the test package source in a directory named tests/ alongside the src/ directory of the main application. At runtime, Android instrumentation loads both the test package and the application under test into the same process. Therefore, the tests can invoke methods on...
