Just use NumberFormat and supply a base of 2 for the output format :)

and there's the crux, Val.
Is content on a harddisk made up of objects or thoughts...

Had this person had a stack of prints of child porn in his suitcase (which are routinely searched) it would have been objects and noone would object to it being used as evidence against him.
But now that it's on his computer harddisk it's suddenly thoughts and can't be used.

I must say I'm of two minds here. IF they have the right to open your suitcase and look through it without a warrant they should have the same right with harddisks.
BUT I don't think they should have the right to open my suitcase without suspicion that there's something illegal in there and are able to get a warrant using the same rules needed to get a warrant to search my home.

You should NOT connect to anything from a JSP. Do that in a servlet (or rather a business logic class called from a servlet) which the JSP form points to.
The servlet can then forward the request to some JSP after it's handled it for displaying the results.

jwenting 1,905 duckman Team Colleague

it's not urgent.

Maybe the company should hire a decent Windows system/network administrator who knows how to force a homepage on browsers and prevent users from changing it.
They could finance that using the money they save by firing you for incompetence.

jwenting 1,905 duckman Team Colleague

don't crosspost, wannabe criminal.

jwenting 1,905 duckman Team Colleague

don't crosspost. You were thoroughly scalded for trying to write a browser hijacker elsewhere.

Maybe as an example of what not to do?
Or for the IT version of the freaky horror show?

I've never heard of Rumba, but I assume it's some sort of terminal emulator?

Under Unix, append the command line with a "&" to force the process into the background. That will allow you to close the terminal without the command terminating.
Or, better yet, use the "screen" command to create a logical terminal that's not linked to any specific physical terminal (which your terminal window is) and start the process in there. You can then use "screen" with other parameters to reconnect to it and monitor or interact with the process.

See an AIX manual for more details.

Contact Toshiba, their nearest service center, or your dealer.
Either one should be able to provide you with service.

If it's like what I had with my 4970 about 8 years ago it will need major repairs.

jwenting,

do you by any chance like chocolate?

Now whatever gave you that idea?

I'm a proud chocoholic indeed, but I've got it under control. I'm down to about a pound a week :)

I wonder what the trademark owners would think about it...

jwenting 1,905 duckman Team Colleague

no, we're not going to help you write a browser hijacker. What you're trying to do is unethical at least, and quite likely illegal.

jwenting 1,905 duckman Team Colleague

So you created something you have no clue as to how to deploy?
Tough luck kid...

You're going to need at the very least the latest version of IIS installed, quite like a database engine as well, and maybe more.

As that's unlikely to be available, you loose.

jwenting 1,905 duckman Team Colleague

Not at all, you just need to stop wanting to do screenscraping like that :)
Why should we help you create spyware?

jwenting 1,905 duckman Team Colleague

1) don't do business logic (which includes database access) from JSPs
2) don't use the JDBC-ODBC bridge driver
3) close ALL database related resources after you're done with them, but at worst at the end of handling a single http request
4) do so inside a finally block so you are assured they are indeed closed
5) introduce some proper exception handling
6) we don't care that you have only 3 days left, start earlier next time
7) use the correct JSP version for your web application version (you do have a web.xml I hope? If not you just lost more points on your assignment)

That should be enough to keep you occupied for a few days.

jwenting 1,905 duckman Team Colleague

That's far too easy, unless maybe you include the hardware and its control functionality for building security (entry/exit registration), reporting functionality, etc. etc.
And of course full capabilities for assigning project/activity and access codes to people on an individual or group basis.

not quite MM, I had long discussions about that when I was a student of physics with my professors.
We came to the conclusion that while c is disallowed speeds over c are not (at least in theory).
While some formulae will have to be expanded outside the realm of real numbers, that causes no theoretical problems.
Given the nature of nature it's even quite possible that what we now know of physics is flawed, and matter and energy start behaving quite differently as speeds approach c from what we've observed so far on the subatomic particle scale, and might even behave quite differently at speeds in excess of c, voiding our known formulae which are all callibrated for speeds that are a mere fraction of a percent of c.
It just makes things VERY weird at speeds in excess of c, but that's to be expected :)

Ender, I've no idea how to achieve that skip. We're talking about pure theory here, it may be practically or even theoretically impossible for anything in one realm to reach the other but that does not mean the other realm does not exist.

It LOOKS similar in screenshots, but has for example built-in support for building Spring applications (including crosslinking between the configuration files and sourcecode, code generators, etc.), Ruby, I think Groovy (not that I use that), vastly improved EJB3 support, etc.

I don't at the moment need that so I haven't upgraded. When I do have the need, the upgrade will be there :)

Actually, there's nothing in Newtonian or Einsteinian physics that prevents one from travelling faster than light.
The only thing that's prohibited is travelling at exactly the speed of light itself.
So if one were to find a way to accellerate from subluminal velocities to superluminal velocities (and of course decellerate again to subluminal velocities) without ever travelling at the speed of light itself one would be able to reach just about any speed one wants to.
In fact, accelleration at superluminal speeds may well cost no energy at all, while decelleration gets more expensive the nearer to the speed of light one comes while slowing down.

The only jars that are required to use JFreeChart are jfreechart-xxxx.jar and jcommon-yyyy.jar
Do make sure you use the correct version of JCommon for the version of JFreeChart you install (it will be included).

BTW, what the heck are you doing using Eclipse if you don't even know how to set a classpath to use 3rd party libraries?

yep, they released 6.0 some time ago. I believe the betas of 6.1 are already available in fact :)

Got it installed on one machine to check it out, but haven't gotten around to using it yet.

And don't go sending people private messages about it either. Especially PMs that are so utterly vague that it's impossible to know what you're trying to do...

Or rather, indeed just don't send any at all.

It's too lazy to do its own thinking, what makes you think it's not too lazy to do its own research.

there are things in the sky that are at some stage unidentified, these are UFOs.
Once they are identified (as they invariably are) they're UFOs no longer.
So yes, there are UFOs but no, they're not extraterrestrial spaceships.
And yes, there's likely life on other planets but no, they're not going to come here to snoop around.

Seeing as the kid is talking about C, why should it know about classes and objects?
It doesn't seem interested in learning to program itself anyway, only in tricking people into giving it a complete solution it can turn in as the solution to its homework assignment so it doesn't get a failing grade.
