Hi friends:
My assignment don't mention conversion tool at all, in fact I couldn't find any "conversion" or
"convert" string in my assigment instruction.
Is that means I needn't implement conversion?(I am luck? )? Is there anyone else meeted such condition ?
Regards.

No, don't worry. Not everyone has to provide this conversion tool.
In the assignment I downloaded a few months ago, no conversion tool needed.
In fact, I think this was a req in a former version of the assignment. And maybe also in the new BETA ?
But for this, people that have been here longer than me could answer you ...

AFAIK, the conversion tool was removed from the assignment quite a while ago, a year and a half or two years. Those who need to implement it must have taken a very long time
Or has Sun re-introduced it?
In any case, just stick to what your own instructions say.

Sun hasn't reintroduced it (yet). In the 1.4 Beta you had to create your own data file from scratch, actually you had to create everything from scratch. No classes were provided. In the Instructions it had an interface that your Data class you create had to implement, but that was all. It gave you the layout of the db.db file to create and that's all.
Lots of fun that was.
Good to see you back Peter, we missed you.
