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....

This is an example that uses dynamic proxies to trace method calls (in logging) and print out elapsed times for them. Because dynamic proxies can only be generated for interfaces, the service classes must be implemented with interface-implementation pairs. Create services A and B.

Dynamic proxy can be used to eliminate the need to stub out unused interface methods. This is an example for a simple SAX content handler for XML parsing. The org.xml.sax.ContentHandler interface requires 11 methods be implemented but we only need three: import java.io.IOException; import java.util.Ar... With a dynamic proxy, we don't need the empty blocks for the unused methods: import java.io.IOException; import java.util.Ar... Equivalently (with anonymous inner class): import java.io.IOException; import java.util.Ar... demo.xml : <breakfast-menu> <food> <name>Belgian W...

When a bean is deployed into the JBoss Microcontainer, it goes through these states: NOT_INSTALLED - the deployment descriptor containing the bean has been parsed along with any annotations on the bean itself. DESCRIBED - any dependencies created by AOP have been added to the bean and custom annotations have been processed. INSTANTIATED - an instance of the bean has been created. CONFIGURED - properties have been injected into the bean along with any references to other beans. CREATE - the create method, if defined on the bean, has been called. START - the start method, if defined on the bean, has been called. INSTALLED - any custom install actions that were defined in the deployment descriptor have been executed and the bean is ready...

It happened on Windows XP with JBoss 5.1.0.GA. This is the stack trace: 2010-07-30 16:39:52,177 ERROR [org.jboss.kernel.pl... According to " (SOLVED) JBAS-7674 solution for JBoss 5.1?? (Windows lock on jnp-service.url) ", the problem seemed to be solved for JBoss 6. In the meanwhile for JBoss 5, disabling Windows Indexing Service seemed to solve the problem. Quote from aforementioned link: It seemed that a file was being locked for some reason, and that file was obviously necessary for JBoss to start. Some further investigation (ok, I admit, I just tried to delete all of JBoss with the faith that it would fail on the locked file), it turns out that file was some file called jnp-service.url in the data directory of the default server. After downloading...

Technically, file upload cannot be handled by Ajax, because XMLHttpRequest (XHR) does not handle file inputs. All techniques not using Flash rely on an invisible iframe as the upload form submit target. JavaScript then grabs the response content from the iframe and present it, giving the same illusion as Ajax. webtoolkit AIM The technique by webtoolkit is very simple. It involves 3 simple steps: include the AIM script, implement the start/finish JavaScript functions, and add an onsubmit handler to the normal file upload form. The hooked up form looks like: <head> <script type="text/javascript" src="webt... The AIM script is also quite simple: /** * * AJAX IFRAME METHOD (AIM) * http... The above code only supports HTML responses. In order to support JSON responses, the above...

It's easiest to use the archetype plugin to start a new Maven project. I'll use struts 1 as example since it's not in the built-in archetypes for archetype:generate .

This is directly from the book Dive into Python : If the name of a Python function, class method, or attribute starts with (but doesn't end with) two underscores, it's private; everything else is public. In Python, all special methods (like __setitem__) and built-in attributes (like __doc__) follow a standard naming convention: they both start with and end with two underscores. Don't name your own methods and attributes this way; it will only confuse you (and others) later. Python has no concept of protected class methods (accessible only in their own class and descendant classes). Class methods are either private (accessible only in their own class) or public (accessible from anywhere). If you try to call a private method, Python will raise a slightly misleading...

I had this problem when deploying a J2EE application into Oracle app server. It worked fine with an OC4J container configured in the default group. But it failed to start with an OC4J container I created. Here's a sample stack trace of the initialization exception: 07/08/14 13:32:46.34 10.1.3.3.0 Started 07/08/1... The problem was, the struts ActionServlet loads commons logging LogFactory, the log factory somehow knows that it needs log4j, but it can't load log4j since it's loaded by a different class loader. The solution for Oracle is to omit commons logging from the list of inherited libraries. Add this to META-INF/orion-application.xml solves the problem: <imported-shared-libraries> <remove-inhe... Actually, this is a quite common problem with commons-logging. If you search the web, you'll find that people have...
