Great! what I need is just a referential thing, so probably I don't need to care about the overloads.
Thanks a lot Ernest

Hi all!
I have some sort of AOP adviser class (a cross-cutting concern). So it is thought to transparently get calls from many different objects.
Now, I don't know weather it is possible or not, but once this object get's the call, I would like to create or to have an instance of the calling class (the object), and a reference of the calling method (java.lang.reflect.Method).

I dream of something like:



Is that humanely possible?
Best regards and thanks in advance

thread management (including yields, etc) will only work inside of one application (AFAIK java threads have nothing to do with OS threads)



Actually I mischose my wording (Sorry ). What I meant to say was that a thread.yield() won't yield the CPU execution of another application.

Thanks a lot to everyone, you guys are cool

Actually Mike's idea about the Stream size and speed (sleeping) constraints looks like a good option, I'm definitely trying it.
Now, I'm not completely sure about this, but thread management (including yields, etc) will only work inside of one application (AFAIK java threads have nothing to do with OS threads). So, this probably won't solve my problem
Many thanks guys, I'm very grateful

Hi Ranchers,
I have a question, and don't know how silly can it be. The thing is that I'm required to write an application that basically moves files from one disc volume to another. In this system, there is already a file server application running.
The hard part comes when I'm asked to regulate the IO throttle of it. Basically what I need to achieve is that this "file move" application does not consume much IO compared to the other live & highly-stressed file server application.

I've thought about simply using thread mechanisms, but I'm not sure that could help.
Any suggestions?

As always, many thanks

Hey ranchers, how are you?
I wanted to know if the salary band between 50.000� and 60.000� a year is ok for a Architect/Developer in Germany. I mean, I have been working for small-mid projects in java and .net for 5 years, designing architectures, developing UMLs, mentoring a small team, and coding. The job I've been offered is supposedly about writing JSPs + EJBs.
Is that ok?

Thanks a lot!
Marx

P.D. I hope I'm not breaking the guidelines with this post!

Thanks a lot Gosia, you're very kind.
My plan is to be there by February, I'm trying to find some freelance work before so I can seriously take time to learn german while earning some money.
I'll let you know when I'm there.
Thanks again.

Thanks a lot! Those are good tips...
Anyway, I've never been to Munich nor Karlsruhe, I've heard Munich not a bad place to live at all, only that it's a bit more expensive than the rest of Germany. I've also heard that there's like a million software firmas in there. My problem is that my German is still in diepers (Actually, I'm preparing to spend at least three months running on savings while my German gets a little better, so that's why I wanted to be in a inexpensive city).
What's your view on Koeln? (I love it too!)
Best regards, and thanks again!

Yes, I've heard... Thanks
I hope that not all of the jobs are in Munich.

Hi ranchers!
Can someone tell me how good (or bad) is the job market in Berlin DE?
I am an electronics engineer with 5-year experience in Web + business JSP, Swing, ASP.NET, C# projects, and I am SCJA, SCJP, SCWCD, and part 1 of the SCEA. My German is still poor (that's one of the reasons why I want to move to Germany), but my English is acceptable, and I also speak some French and native Spanish.
What do you think? Can I find a job in Berlin? Which are the chances?
Berlin is one of Germany's cheapest cities but it's not my only German option.

Thanks a lot

thanks for your comments Dan,

Guys, can someone shed some extra lights over this?
Hi ranchers!
Can someone take a look at this? I have my doubts about it...
Does this mean that it's not an architect's role to determine which technology is to be used? Have someone passed part II undcer this philosophy?
Best regards

I'm thinking about something different.
My thoughts:

Segment
A segment is a line in the itinerary that represents a flight item, along with its seat number. I mean, not the full list of available flights (Flight class), just a mapping between the itinerary and its items (segments). Each segment is then related to one flight, beacuse each segment are the flight details for an entry in the Itinerary (Although a flight might be related to many segments, one per seat in the plane).

Flight
Flight classes are the available list of flights, it's origins, destinations, flight number and timing. Each flight is related to an equipment, though an equipment is related to many flights (another potential incoherence of the BDM and/or my interpretation).
Equipment & Seats
Equipment are planes and seat are its seats. That's obvious, but the point is that both of these elements won't change unless the company buys new planes.

This is my interpretation. For example, if a customer bought a Pto. Rico -> New York route, and it has a connection in Miami it would be separated in two itinerary items (segments). The delicate thing is that under this approach, the flight number could not be the PK of a potential flight table, the key should be composed of the flight number along with its origin and destination.

Is this ok? or is it wild?
