In this example I'll add a parameter to a facelets template. The example contains three tabs, each tab points to a different page. The tab control is shared among all pages, therefore, it is put in the template.
Starting from the simple facelet example , make these additions:
Create a new template WEB-INF/templates/tabs.xhtml :
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Stric...
Add a page for the about tab ( about.xhtml ):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ui:comp...
Add a page for the news tab ( news.xhtml ):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ui:comp...
Add a page for the partner tab ( partner.xhtml ):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Build and re-deploy the application. Launch the browser and load page http://localhost:8080/facelet-demo/about.jsf .

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...

Parsing a CVS file seemed to be a sore spot for software development. It's not simple enough that you can roll your own code in a couple of hours, and yet not deemed big enough for a full-fledged project. As a result, there are multiple libraries, each one with its own quirks. This is a summary of some simple tests I've done with five CSV parsers. Apache commons CSV parser : Does not escape backslash. The backslash is treated as literal if not proceeding a double quote, but then there's no way to have a backslash as the last character before the ending quote (even though it's a rare scenario). IOException thrown for unmatched quotes SuperCSV parser Can't handle escapes inside quotes Throws Exception for...

The parser: Escaped quote and backslash correctly Ignored spaces before the quotation mark - sometimes (see below) Counted spaces after the right quotation mark till the comma as content, including the right quotation mark (bug).

The String.format() method provides versatile formatting capabilities. This tutorial tries to present these capabilities in a accessible manner. The format string A format string can contain zero, one, or more format specifiers . The general form of a format specifier is:

The only required characters in the format specifier is the percent sign % and the conversion character. A simple example: public static void simpleFormat() { System.out...
