If you set your environment correctly, just starting a new command prompt will do the trick. The environment setting changes aren't propagated to currently running applications, and that includes currently running command prompts.

first step is coming up with your own idea. ANYTHING you didn't come up with yourself won't be new.

Of course the very people who don't use code tags are almost certainly those people who won't read announcements either...

not urgent. And no help for multiposters.

not urgent.

The base class knows nothing about the existence of child classes, and should never even want to know. If you think you have such a requirement, you have a fundamentally flawed design. But most likely all you need are some virtual functions, which would make the whole thing happen implicitly, …

determinate? Slip of the tongue there? :) A system like you describe would take hundreds if not thousands of hours to build for a team of several people if done right. Of course that would be a professional application rather than the highly simplified versions most homework assignments require, which …

Under the terms of your contract cracking that phone is a breach of contract, opening you to lawsuits. Anyone offering to do so for free or fee is engaged in what's effectively criminal activity, of course they're going to scam you, they're criminals. After your contract has run out, the …

what a total crapload of FUD you're spouting here. 1) OpenSolaris is still free, it's an open source project out of (direct) control of Sun/Oracle (though they are the main maintainers of course). 2) Java isn't slow at all. Only idiot kids still think so who read too many 15 …

we're not going to do your work for you. What have you done already, and what specifically do you have problems with? It's your project, so you'd better start learning about what you're supposed to do.

[QUOTE=1manik;1194162]And do you know some solution? If yes, than you write me it please.[/QUOTE] no, we're not going to do your work for you. Read the rules, kid. Anyway, your own writings seem pretty random so just keep sitting behind that keyboard and hammer away at it.

Java sounds good too. It's no resource hog, if you know how to use it (just like C++ is a resource hog if you don't know how to use it).

The program will eventually crash with an OutOfMemoryError. Should be a good enough end :)

php is useless, it's in invitation to spaghetti code. Effectively such code is impossible to maintain, we call it write-only code. it's bad enough that people use it to create websites, don't make things worse by trying to push it into the application programming domain where it doesn't belong.

still good advice (even if op probably never will read it, maybe someone else will).

most likely. No doubt you're comitting the ultimate sin of storing everything in global (maybe even static) members of your servlet class, something that should rarely if ever be done with servlets.

something else to keep in mind is never to take any advice from someone calling themselves a professional yet can't be bothered to check the timestamp on a question and tries to give an answer >3 years after it's already been answered.

Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and some others are all needed to create paper from which boarding tickets are made.

no. But when you go to that JSP you immediately create a new session :)

There is no secret. Just years and years of hands on experience and a willingness to spend very long hours studying and practicing your skills.

you can impress by doing it yourself, which will be a breath of fresh air from all the kids who just look up some ready made code on the internet and turn it in as their own. So no instant messenger, CPU scheduling simulation, airline reservation system, etc. etc.

Don't think I'll be installing Visual Studio 2010. I don't use C++ or C# extensively enough to make the upgrade from VS 2008 Pro an economical one. And as I don't do development targetted specifically at Windows 7 there's no technical reason for the investment either.

The instructions almost write it for you... ALL you need to do is translate them into Java code. If you can't do even that you should go back to the very first lesson you got and restart from there.

Been there, done that, now generating pay slips for some 20.000 people. But not going to do your homework for you, do your own. Lazy schoolkids like you have no place getting passing grades and fouling up the job market.

Create a hidden form field, and on clicking the button run a bit of Javascript that first sets a value to that field depending on which button it is, then submits the form.

Without knowing how that answer was arrived at it is as worthless as the other sentences. In fact it's far less useful than the advice to try different distributions and pick the one that works best for you. Are they telling you to use ubuntu or fedora based on personal …

how does asking nicely affect one's chances of getting an answer to one's questions? how does doing one's own homework affect one's chances of actually learning something? don't bother to answer here, we know the answer. But thinking over the answers would teach you a lot.

sounds like a career in management or marketing is in order. That's where all people who don't have a clue what they want end up.

have your class Photo implement Comparable in some way. Read the JDK documentation (and especially the API documentation for the Comparable interface) on how to do that, as well as the Java tutorial and your instructional material your teachers told you to buy.

Week 0: come up with a different product name. The name "Tetris" is trademarked worldwide and the owners are extremely agressive in enforcing that trademark, taking anyone using it without permission to court even if there's no commercial interest.

indeed it doesn't. There is no such concept as an "empty array" of primitives. Every element of an array is always initialised to something. In case of object types, that's null. In case of primitive types, that's 0 (zero).

in addition to that, I don't see the urgency.
