impossible to say without knowing more context.

and make sure your database resources are ALWAYS returned by closing them in the finally block of the method in which you created them!

Haven't used Matlab since 1995. Back then you couldn't do much of anything to create a custom user interface, pretty much all you could do was set the background and line colour for graphs.

i dont know anything about this.

so go out and learn something about it rather than wait for people to do your work for you...
I'm pretty sure that a quick adventure with your favourite search engine would yield a wealth of information.

I've done many. They cost my boss(es) a lot of money to have me make them.
I'm not going to give them away for free (if I even was allowed to under my contract with them).

Wow, so many problems with a single post.

1) you're trying to use the wrong technology
2) you're asking for others to do your homework for you
3) you're presuming you're more important than anyone else and that the entire world is just waiting for you to make your wishes known before rushing to comply with your commands
4) you don't even bother to write normal words and sentences

Why not try out the link I posted in my 4th post... ?

gimme ze codez asap pronto plz, iz very extremely urgent!!!!!

That's probably the reason...

he's already told you to create your PDF files differently...

see the JBoss documentation. It's quite explicit on what you should do.

You don't. You rather learn to use the XML parser properly and explicitly read only those elements from the tree that you actually need.

and NEVER scream for attention by claiming your problem requires help before all others, which is what you (implicitly or explicitly) do by claiming it's "urgent" or "gimme ze codez asap plz pronto".

and ditch that dinosaur called VC6. You can read up on programming and the protocols you need while VC 2005 Express and the Win32 Platform SDK are downloading and installing.

and it can't hurt to upgrade the drivers for the wireless cards in the PC.

they give you solid food in your cell?

But don't overdo it.
Comments should tell you WHAT the code does, not HOW it does it.

yah, lifespan is measured in operational cycles rather than time.

Several hundred burn operations combined with thousands or tens of thousands of read cycles should be the minimum (though for older drives the reliability is lower, especially for burn cycles).

Can't recall them from the top of my head, it's been a few years since I read it.

But overall it left a taste of teaching bad practices.

yeah hey guys i heard the funniest thing today, i was speaking to an american in battlefield 2 (game) and he asked where i was from and i said the UK and he replied, what state is that in! :)

I can fully understand that.
My father was in New York once having diner with the governor (he was there to sign a contract that would generate several thousand jobs in the man's state).
Things progressed nicely until the governor asked where my father came from. He answered he's from the Netherlands, on which the governor responde (obviously proud of his international geography) "Oh, the capital of Copenhagen!".

In my experience an excellent analytical mind and an ability to go without sleep on a diet of just a heavily cafeinated drink are far more important than the actual curiculum you were taught when you are serious about getting a job in software development.

The vast majority of the people I work(ed) with (including myself) don't have an IT related degree at all.
Many are biologists, mathematicians, and physicists. One was a program manager at a radio station.

So far I'm hosting everything myself. At work we do the same (in fact we are a webhost for several customers).
Works well, total control over everything.

And of course no pesky flashing adbanners destroying the look of your site.

no, unless the image URI exists on another server (especially one that doesn't use SSL) from the one the html is coming from.
A broken image means no data is transmitted, so no potential security risk either.

At least that's the logical reasoning, you'd have to try it to see if it's what really happens :)

given his attitude (blaming his inability to learn something on his teacher automatically in his very first sentence is always a good indicator) I don't think he'll have gotten much out of that course.

popup windows work only in a graphical user interface, not in a text based interface (unless you're using a library mimmicking a graphical user interface in full screen text mode, what people did 15 years ago).

What I don't know is if his Pascal version has any networking libraries, which he'd need to do his http (I presume, he doesn't seem to have advanced enough knowledge to know about the existence of other transfer protocols) over tcp call.
I seriously doubt dev-Pascal has that though, being as old, non-standard compliant, and incomplete as it is.

I took a C++course and me and my friends wasnt good at c++ , we didnt get any benifits from that course beacuse of our bad teacher !!!

IOW, you were caught cheating or your teacher didn't make it easy enough for you to pass without doing anything.

if you can cant help OR if you can help please send me the code to my email please to be sure that i will get it . please send it to me at :

No, we're not going to help lazy brats like you.

IF ANY BODY WOULD DO THIS FAVOUR TO ME I WILL BE more than THANKFUL really i need your help

You won't, none of the lazy brats like you ever are. They think they're getting what they're entitled, that the entire world is there only to please them and do everything they want at their whim.

There isn't any solution. JME is limited in scope and indeed contains only a subset of JSE.

Your best bet is to use another way to create the charts and send them to the client as graphics.
An excellent library is JFreeChart, which can be used to create any charts you want (you will have to feed it the right information of course).

Throw the monitor out the window

Never (yet) done that, but I've thrown a keyboard against the wall.
Advantage is that it prevents incorrect user input.

IPX is an ancient network protocol created by Novell for their Netware network system.
It's true legacy now, not unlike TokenRing networks.

There are some IPX over TCP tunelling drivers out there that can let you set up an IPX stack so old software needing it thinks it's talking IPX when in fact it's talking TCP, but I've no experience in using them.

sounds like a DHCP lease expiring on the LAN.

they're silently moving towards raising the age to 21 here it seems.
Special "probationary" licenses are now issued to people under 21, which get automatically cancelled after 3 traffic violations...

scored 73% first try, about half the errors I'd placed the state just a few pixels off the mark...
Second try 85%, same thing (and there I got all those midwestern states first, having to place them in the middle of nowhere with pixelperfect precision).

and I've never had US geography beyond New Amsterdam and Washington :)

don't know if it applies to you, but reading back a few months on the Toshiba support forums revealed that a driver upgrade for the laptop WLAN drivers (from Intel) should fix the disconnect problems.
Also use the Intel PROSet software instead of the Toshiba or Windows stuff to make the connection.

Did the upgrade and am currently testing to see what happens. It looks more stable already, all WLAN icons in the taskbar show connection and it's been up for longer than before without problems.

yes, my bad. I rarely use that type, mostly we use longs where I work.

same thing here. Toshiba laptop with a Belkin router.

Create an ANT task in the buildscript associated with the project and execute that.

char is a primitive, you can't store primitives in Collections.
Make it Set<Char> instead, and autoboxing will ensure your chars are converted into Chars and back again.

TIJ I personally would NOT recommend. IMO it's poorly written and teaches some bad practices.

Best get some excellent books instead.
Head First Java is probably the best book to learn Java from as a total beginner.
Or (as you already have programming experience, making most beginners' books and tutorials too basic), buy Sun's SL-275 course.
Available as classroom training, web based, or CD-ROM, it's excellent value for money.

where do you change orderNum in order to ever leave the recursion?

xslt and css.

what Vinoth also doesn't seem to understand is that without servlets there would not be JSP.
JSP are compiled into servlets, they ARE special servlets with a different syntax.

And unless you use them as intended only for display purposes, you get incredibly messy spaghetti code (I should know, that's how I started in the days when servlets and JSPs both were fresh out of Sun, back in the late 1990s, and everyone put reams of Java code into JSPs).

you don't need anything you don't have on your LAN connection, but you may need to open some ports on your firewall (especially the port on which Tomcat is serving content over http, usually port 8080 with Tomcat though using port 80 is nicer as it's the standard for http).

Domain names you'll need to buy, there are many companies selling them over the net for not a lot of money per year.
Make sure your ISP allows you to do this though, some (many?) will kick you off the network if you host a server over your home connection.
Others will allow it if you upgrade to a corporate account.
Some also sell (or help you to buy) domain names and hosting services.

also make sure your ISP actually allows you to host a server on your connection.
Many apparently do not (mine does, if they didn't they'd be looking rather silly as they provide me with server to server mail delivery among other things).

Do make sure you have everything properly secured though. Leaky server software (especially poorly configured databases and poorly shielded database access) are a major source of intrusions.

Instead of Tomcat I'd advise an industrial strength application server (though Tomcat isn't bad, there's a lot better) like Sun Java System Application Server 8 (or GlassFish, its successor) which are free for download from Sun.

At work we're running several dozen servers on JBoss, also very nice.

I've been terrified of injection needles since I was about 6 years old.
I needed a lot of blood tests at that time (I was rather sickly as a child), and at several occasions the lab tech made mistakes causing severe pain (jabbing in the needle and digging around for a vein rather than finding a vein and then jabbing in the needle).

It's getting slightly better now, but until a few years ago I couldn't even look at someone getting an injection on television without fainting.

APL and CDDL are good licenses.
But yes, Creative Commons is better for documents like you are making. And as it's a cluster of different license modules, you can tune it to your liking.

in most European countries you can't drive a car until you're 18, in some you can start lessons at 17 but can't take the exam until you're 18.

noone uses lisp except some university departments, it's a non-language if you want to have any serious work in the industry.

If lotsofsloths' compiler supports <iostream> then it supports <string> or needs to be thrown away. ;)

if it doesn't support either of them it needs to be thrown away...

Wow. Is that a one-time fee or do you have to renew every so many years?

I got a 90%. I had no idea when highways were most slippery...

That's the cost for driving lessons in Europe, give or take (depending on how many lessons and exams you need of course).

Over here (in most countries) you MUST hire a qualified driving instructor, anyone else is by law prohibited from giving lessons on public roads (like with flying lessons, where only a qualified instructor is allowed to hand the controls to someone without a license).

License renewal in this country is required every 10 years but is purely administrative, costing about €90.
For people over 70 or so and people with certain medical conditions (like diabetes) a medical certificate is required to be allowed to renew their license and the renewal may be given for a shorter than usual period (say 5 years).

I scored 85% on that test, not bad for someone who has to guess at US roadsigns more often than not.
They're quite different from European ones, and some of the rules are contradictory to ours.
For example our rules for high beam lights require them to be used as little as possible and then only where legally allowed and safe (which is stricter than the US rule apparently).
You could get fined for running them unnecessarilly (with the definition of that being up to the officer writing the ticket).

fronthand and backhand are terms in some sport maybe, certainly not in the world of computing.

IF you can do what you want to and hotdeploy just a jar, the documentation for your version of websphere will tell you how to do it.
BUT it is highly unlikely you can do that.

It's also not generally recommended to use hotdeploy at all. Too many things can go wrong.
Better have a clustered environment and restart the servers one at a time so the cluster will always be available (well, almost, sometimes you might create something that requires the entire cluster to go down for a restart, but that's not that common).

tell your boss you lied on your job interview and you don't actually have the skills he thinks you have.
He'll do what is best for the company, which will probably be to kick you out of the building with maybe a lawsuit to recover damages from you.

That's what you deserve, certainly not to have others do your work for you so you can make your boss think you actually know what you're supposed to be doing.

start reading the assignment. It tels you where to start AND what to do...

The installation instructions included with Tomcat are operating system independent (as it Tomcat itself).
If you don't know how to use Linux, maybe you should spend some time learning that before you attempt running server software on it...
