Hi @timothy sam,
<quote>if he could give me something that I can do in Ruby that
I cannot do in Java, then I would go learn Ruby
</quote>
<quote>"If it doesn't exist, make it!"</quote>make it!
Here "the something-ruby":
We want to write a function that generates accumulators--
a function that takes a number n, and returns a function
that takes another number i and returns n incremented by i.
(That's incremented by, not plus. An accumulator has to accumulate.)
p.s. number => java-jargon: the function must be "generic"

viel spass(hoffentlich kannst du dieses Problem knacken:-))
ser
help?
ruby:
def foo (n) lambda {|i| n += i } end WOOOOO!!!
please, post your java funtion!!!
java-hint:
Ken Anderson says that the following code is about as close as you
can get in Java:
public interface Inttoint { public int call(int i); }
public static Inttoint foo(final int n) {
return new Inttoint() {
int s = n;
public int call(int i) {
s = s + i;
return s; }};
}
This falls short of the spec because it only works for integers.

Hi Alec,
you are right.
the pages 643 and 635 of HFjS + ErrataBook instanceOf totalWrong ==> true
Book + errata are a big desaster.
the resin tutorial (resin-3.0.149) about security is very nice. Try it(It's free)
You can find the tutorial about security in Tomcat under:

Now that makes me wonder if a jsp comment is allowed.. like

any comments?

Hi,
scripletless means:
no declaration, expresion or scriplet
but <%-- this is a comment --%>
This is a comment.
O.k?

Hi David,

That's what I suspected, and I've searched the Internet and found that it's true. HttpSessionActivationListener should NOT be configured in the DD.

But seriously, how can the authors of HFSJ make such an obvious mistake? In this case, the errata should contain a lot more because all the stuff mentioned in 2 or 3 pages in the book about HttpSessionActivationListener are wrong! For example, it mentioned that HttpSessionActivationListener can be implemented by an attribute classes as well as other classes. It should just be attribute classes, right?

Hi,
read the specification. No problem

Hi H. Bates,
(bartender and AUTHOR)
(wer schereibt wirklich ein Buch or are there a lot of ghostwriters overthere?)
conceptual question,
the facts(this is your book):
HFSJ page 296:
quote---------296
...
API Implicit Object
JspWriter out
HTTpServletRequest request
HttpservletResponse response
...
...
quote--------296

page 339 mock exam

quote--------339
In sequence what are the java types of the following JSP implicit objects:
application, out, request, response, session
answer:
java.servlet.ServletContext
java.servlet.jsp.JspWriter
java.servlet.ServletRequest
java.servlet.ServletResponse
java.servlet.http.HttpSession
quote--------339
IS PAGE 296 RIGHT OR PAGE 339?
Do you know, what are you writing about?
==>jsp-2_0-frspec.pdf(Table JSP.1-6 Implicit Objects Available in JSP Pages):
==>...
==> request protocol dependent subtype of:
javax.servlet.servletRequest
e.g:
javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest
==> response protocol dependent subtype of:
javax.servlet.servleResponse
e.g:
javax.servlet.http.HttpServleResponse
==> ...

I think, your ghostwriters have no idea about JSP Specification Version 2.0

- It will look for a attribute with the name 'integer', and it will find the value of this attribute as 3. But till now this expression has not looked into requestScope. Its just the EL which is being processed. Now, it will look for the 4th element in the requestscope and it will not find anything as there are only 3 elements (0,1,2). So, it will return 0.


But it we do this -
requestScope["integer"] or requestScope['integer'] return 3

It will look for a map value with the key 'integer' and it will find the second key in the map and return the value 3.

Hi Kapil,
your explanation is fine!!

thanks,
sergio

Hi Shiva,

I perfectly agree with Narendra, as "Scriptless" bars the usage of two things

1. scriptlets <% %> and
2. scriptlet expressions <%= %>

Thanks and Regards,
Rufus

und what is about this <%! String Hi_you_declaration!!! %>
compile or not compile??

Reading about jboss portal some people speaks about PORTLETS, can you gimme a short clear example of what a portlet is?

Hi,
try this tutorial:

The single biggest enemy of reliability and
perhaps of software quality in general is complexity.

So, what is it that someone could do to convince the decision-maker to pick JBoss over other App servers?

Hi,
there are a lot of wonderful open-source projects(JBoss, Hibernate, Spring), and their support is not NULL.
The big shots think: no one is fired because she(or he) go to Bed
with IBM (Web logic JRun etcetera). Open-source??? no idea!!!
It is a schizophrenia, the big shots "do it" costly, but what
count is to "do it" cheap and right.
About JBoss-support: the reaction-time of JBoss breaks
the general relativity theory!!!

Wondering what is the quickest way to write the deployment descriptors for deployment of apps on JBoss? Is there an IDE that makes the process easy?

Hi Saurabh,

Yes there is an IDE: Eclipse 3.1 + lomboz plugin (lomboz-I20050526.zip,
lomboz-eclipse-emf-gef-jem-I20050526.zip, lomboz-emf-gef-jem-I20050526.zip)
It features:

+Building Web applications with HTML pages, servlets, JavaServer Page (JSP) files.
...
+Generation of Web and EJB containers using wizards.
+Generation of EJB test clients using wizards.
+++J2EE Web application archives (EAR), web modules (WAR) files and
Ejb archive (Jar) file deployment support.
+++Integrated EJB 1.1 and 2.0 (Session, Entity and Message Driven Beans)
development with XDoclet.
+Enabling end-to-end local and remote testing of application servers.
+Ability to support almost any Java application server by extendable
server definitions.
+Ability to debug live server-side code (JSP & EJBs) using the
integrated Java debugger.
+Increasing productivity by using wizards and code generators
+Generate Web Services clients form WSDL files (using Apache Axis)

It is just me? or is there anyone out there on this small planet who share my views.

HI Siri,
What is your problem?
you bought a Book with one error pro three/2 pages!!!
what do you want??
(I think: you don't like f*** errors)
cheers
P.S.
Quote: Note to parents and puritans ...that the starts with f,

Hi Nick,
or SCWCD Exam study Kit, second edition by Deshmukh/Malavia/Scarpino considered HARMFUL!!!
after Dijkstra(paraphrased):
The use of Deshmukh/Malavia/Scarpino (SCWCD 081, second edition), cripples the mind;
its reading should, therefore, be regarded as criminal offense.
And think about: Nothing is expensive as making mistakes(by
example reading a bad book. dito.)
