Setting log levels within classes in a jar file

gatsrao1975 — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 01:21:03 -0500

Hi
I am currently building an application which will provide a Log4j admin module, primarily allows me to retrieve all the class files inside this ear file and lets me modify the various log4j levels- debug,info, error inside the
modue, the Enterprise archive file consists of an EJB jar and a web module.

On installing the ear on my local websphere app server, the web application explodes within the installed apps server, so retreiving the path where the
classes are stored and the retreiving the class files are relatively easy.

JTextArea automatic line break

micha — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 05:17:10 -0500

Hello everybody,
I have to implement a JTextArea with a fixed rowlength of 50 characters.
After the 50th character a line break ("\n") should automatically be inserted.
I tried to fix my problem using the method insertString(int offs, String str, AttributeSet attribute) of the DefaultStyledDocument.
See code example!
The problem occurs if the user pastes more than 50 characters into the textarea.
Anybody an idea to fix my problem?

Has anyone already struggled with this issue ? I'm opened to suggestions and/or solutions. Thanks.

Method chaining question
VonQ — Mon, 04 May 2009 19:02:16 -0400
In this example:
object.method1().method2().method3();
   
What gets evaluated first? Does method 2 use what method 1 returned first for its calculation, or does method 3 return what method 2 returns for its calculation and then evaluate the first method based on what that returned?
If the question is not clear I will clarify.
Thanks, Von

Interface CookieStore
public interface CookieStore
A CookieStore object represents a storage for cookie. Can store and retrieve cookies.
CookieManager will call CookieStore.add to save cookies for every incoming HTTP response, and call CookieStore.get to retrieve cookie for every outgoing HTTP request. A CookieStore is responsible for removing HttpCookie instances which have expired. 
Think about it how many times have you tried to eat a cookie and never

Prefix and Postfix operator question
VonQ — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 20:37:19 -0400
There doesn't seem to be any difference in the output when I change the prefix to the postfix operator for the following code:
public class inc

{

public static void main(String[]args)throws Exception

{

for(int val=1; val< 11; val++) //when I change it to ++val the output is the 
                               //same

{

System.out.println(val);

}


}

}

Why use one or the other if there is no difference in output?
Thank you from Von, a struggling Java student

Instantiating object in main method
VonQ — Mon, 23 Mar 2009 17:10:13 -0400
This is a really, really dumb question but I'm trying to wrap my mind around why all my beginner java books use the main method to instantiate objects of a different class than the one it is being instantiated in, such as the one below. I've tested it and know it works but why don't I ever see it in the books? Is there a drawback to creating a new object of the same object that you are in?
Thanks, Von and sorry if this is a crazy question!!!!!!
