This is a simple JSP custom tags library with tag body. Just like the JSF counterpart , it splits a string and repeats the body for each word, i.e., with this markup:
<%@ taglib uri="http://custom.tag.com/demo" prefix...
output:
<html>
<body>
<p>Hello Tigger!</p>

In the simple taglib example , I used a tag handler class to implement a taglib. This is an example to implement a taglib with a UI component. The purpose is to use a custom tag to split a string and print each part in a separate paragraph, i.e., print
<p>john</p> <p>steve</p> <p>mike</p> with custom tag <my:foreach> : <my:foreach var="who" value="john steve mike"> ... These are the files: pom.xml <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"... src/main/java/com/example/UIForeash.java : package com.example; import java.io.IOExcep... src/main/resources/META-INF/faces-config.xml : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <faces-c... src/main/resources/META-INF/foreach.taglib.xml : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <facelet...

Demo code for CSV parsing with Apache Commons CSV parser .
Java code:
import java.io.*;
import org.apache.commons.csv...
Test with a simple CSV file:
psmith01,CLASS2B,Peter Smith 1,YEAR2,1,N,ADVANCED,...
Result:
Line 1 has 11 values:
|psmith01|
|CLASS2B|...
The parser worked correctly.
Test with a more complicated CSV file:
"psmith01 abc", "CLASS2B " , " Peter...
Result:
Line 1 has 4 values:
|psmith01 abc|
|CLASS...
The third line is invalid input, but throwing a Java IOException is a bit grave. Also, the parser is not able to escape a backslash.
Add a new line in item two:
"One", "Two
", "Three"
Result:
Line 2 has 3 values:
|One|
|Two
|
|...

This is the task: your client wants to know how the web application is used. That is pretty easy. A plethora of commercial tools or any of the free log analysis tools such as analog and AWStats would fit the bill. But here's the catch: they want to know not only what pages are visited by how many people and when, but also who logged in and did what. Your application is using form based authentication and therefore, everyone is anonymous in the web access log. What to do? This is a servlet filter that generates a web access log with authenticated user info that can be fed to log analysis tools such as analog and AWStats . Filter code (the output format is Apache...

I tried to find a GZIP compression servlet filter to compress a large log file that we send down to the browser. Most of the implementations I found were overly complicated and many buggy. This is a simple implementation that worked for me. The filter:
package filter.demo; import java.io.*; i... Config web.xml : <filter> <filter-name>gzipFilter</filte... The ugly anonymous inner class could have been avoided if the servlet API did not insist on ServletResponse.getOutputStream returning the bogus ServletOutputStream class (instead of the plain OutputStream ). Additional Note: In an earlier version of this filter, the gzip headers were added in doFilter , like this: // This is NOT good! if (supportsGzip) { ... It turned out that the ServletResponse methods sendError bypasses the gzip...

This example decompresses a gzip compressed file with java.util.zip.GZIPInputStream . The input is assumed to be Base64 encoded after being gzipped (such would be the case when binary data is transmitted within an XML file).
You don't need the Base64InputStream if the data is not Base64 encoded.

This XML signature validator comes from the Apache XML Security project. It validates the signature according to the core validation processing rules .
It does not verify that the key used to generate the signature is a trusted key. You can override the KeySelector class to make sure that the signing key is from a trusted store.
