Some peculiarities about Java PrintWriter: PrintWriter never throws any exceptions. From JavaDoc : Methods in this class never throw I/O exceptions, although some of its constructors may. The client may inquire as to whether any errors have occurred by invoking checkError(). When error occurs, you'll never know anything more than that it occured, because checkError returns boolean. When a character is out of the range of the character encoding of the PrintWriter, it prints a question mark (?). But this is not an error. Test code: import java.io.*; public class TestPrintWri...

It seems that the JDBC standard way to create a BLOB is to call Connection.createBlob . However, this does not work for PostgreSQL (as of version 9.0-801 jdbc4): Exception in thread "main" org.postgresql.util.PSQ... The workaround is to call a PostgreSQL function to create the Blob, then use JDBC to update it: Connection conn = jdbcTemplate.getDataSource().get...

cURL is a command line tool for transferring files with URL syntax. The main purpose and use for cURL is to automate unattended file transfers or sequences of operations. It's really easy to see HTTP headers with curl: C:\>curl --head http://www.google.com HTTP/1.0 ... or, headers and page together (dump headers to stdout): $ curl --dump-header - http://www.google.com HTTP/...

This example demonstrates the general steps in creating a custom Java class loader. Normally a class loader would consult its parent class loader when asked to load a class. If it's not loaded by the parent class loader, then the class loader would try to load the class on its own. This class loader tries to load the requested class on its own first, and delegates to the parent only when a java.lang.SecurityException is thrown (which happens when it tries to load core Java classes such as java.lang.String ). The classes are loaded from CLASSPATH through the getResourceAsStream call. It's important to note that when a class is loaded with a certain class loader, all classes referenced from that class are also loaded through the...

Java introduced annotations since JDK1.5. Annotations are used to decorate code and can be applied to declarations of classes, fields, methods, and other program elements. They are not part of the code per se, but frequently used to apply external logic to the code being annotated. An "Annotation Type" must accompany each type of annotation. For example, the following code will fail compilation: public class TestAnnotation { @deprecated ... Changing @deprecated to @Deprecated with an upper case D will fix the problem, since @Deprecated is a built in annotation type. There are three built in annotation types: @Deprecated , @Override , and @SuppressWarnings . This is an example of a user defined annotation (the file must be named Test.java ): import java.lang.annotation.*; /** * In......
