Re: Allow applet access to printer - once and for all

True, which is why there is a security policy file, which prevents access as the default. However, you can get around it by adding that line to the file. I was wondering if there was an easier way to change it, rather than editing that policy file by hand.

Not that I am aware of; and remember it would still require every user of your applet to change their own system.

> The applet is signed, however, it's print method is being called directly from javascript and so I think there may be a bit of security tightening going on there causing the problem.

You are correct. Wrap the call in a doPriviliged() method and it should work (in a trusted applet) without further intervention.

Messing with policy files is not something I would recommend even for development purposes.

We tried this fix and it seems to be causing further problems. Our implementation is:

try {
    final Doc doc = new SimpleDoc (docBytes, javax.print.DocFlavor.BYTE_ARRAY.AUTOSENSE, null);
            AccessController.doPrivileged(new PrivilegedExceptionAction() {
                public Object run() throws PrintException {
            DocPrintJob printerJob = selectedPrinter.getPrintService().createPrintJob();;
            PrintRequestAttributeSet aset = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
            printerJob.print(doc, aset);
            result.setStatus("SUCCESS");
            return null;
                }
            });
    }
    catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        result.setStatus("FAILED");
    }

We're using the doPrivileged call with PrivilegedExceptionAction so that we can report the failure to the server to be reported. The problem is we are now seeing in the production logs that a small percentage of the print jobs fail with PrivilegedActionException, which we never saw before. We have not been able to reproduce this in our test environments, so in fact we don't really know whether the previous versions were failing or not - maybe we're just seeing the exceptions in the logs now, but they were always there.

this is an echo server..i would like to know how could i make sure that multiple instances of this server is not running elsewhere on the network??? please help..

You probably want to use print/println[^] to get the right results.

for(Record r : yourArrayList)
{
printf("Name:%s\tAddress:%s\tBalance:%d\n",r.name,r.address,r.balance);
}

Note:i suppose that balance is integer so i used the "%d" format.

My apologies, but printf() is part of PrintWriter and may be accessed through System.out.

with the normal try/catch mechanismus. This exception should only get thrown if you allocate real hughe memory blocks ( maybe > 1 GB). If that fails your program isnt dead enough... Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

The same way you catch any exception is the short answer. However, if you have an OutOfMemory condition then chances are that nothing (including catching the exception) will be possible any longer. In many cases your entire system will stop working for a while at least. Further details can be found here[^].

Out Of Memory is an Error, not an Exception. You need to catch either Error or Throwable for this, catching Exception won't work.

Well he asked how to catch it; the answer is in a catch() statement. I did not specify catch(Exception) in my answer, but left it to the questioner to check the details.

Custom Design Surface (Hosting a Designer) possible

Hi
I am comparing possibilities for creating custom design surfaces (forms designer) for a course at university.
Example in C# WinForms: Have a Great DesignTime Experience with a Powerful DesignSurface (Extended) Class[^]

Is something like that possible in Java as well (i think so Wink | ;)

).
Do you know any examples/tutorials/references where I can find some information about it?

If you know any examples besides Java and C# WinForms I would appreciate it if you'll let me know.

Thank you

Try a Google search, there are hundreds of Java tutorials on the web. The Java Tutorials[^] home page has a number to get you started.

Maybe you've misunderstood my intention of my question.

I am not looking for java programming tutorials or building simple Guis.
I am more looking for creating my own "Gui Builder" and if there a references, guidelines or tutorial for this case.

I've found GEF (Graphical Editing Framework) (http://www.eclipse.org/gef/overview.html[^]), I think this could help

You might also want to take a look at NetBean's Gui designer (Matisse). It is open source and you can download the source code from the NetBeans site to see how it works or to extend it and add in your own features if you want.
