Yes, I had not considered jars (see below), but that's because it's not obvious which class in the jar has the main method.
Normally when I think of jars I have ![Beer | [beer]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif) in mind.

No.
When you build an 'executable jar' that is the case. And there are generally other constraints that one must deal with when creating that specialized jar.
Most jars are not of that type but can certainly have a main method. Actually they can have many main methods since each class can have one.

I think Willie's answer was quite correct in the context of this question.

Re-reading several times I still don't see that.

Well since you confirm it in the first sentence of your response I cannot understand what it is that you don't see.

Because 'jar' does not equal 'executable jar'
No more than 'programming language' equals 'java'.
In each the second is is a subset of the first.
In each there are many more cases of the first than the second.
In each there are many specific details that impact the second.

I said "within the context of this question" where it is fairly obvious we (i.e. everyone except you) are talking about executables.

The JRE requires a method with the signature:
public static void main(String [] args)
It must be public, or else it can't be accessed.
It must be static as it is called before anything has been instantiated.

If you are using Java 1.5 or later you can also use the signature:
<br />
public static void main(String... args)<br />
There is a difference between the two, although not really significant for a main method. The following works with the vararg signature, not with the array signature:
<br />
MyClass.main("A", "B");<br />
This will not compile if you are using the main(String[] args) form. But how often do you do this with a main method anyway?

This is far too much code for anyone to read through. Explain what you are trying to do, what fails, and where it goes wrong.

I'll give you some general tips to start with:
0. The client needs to run on two threads, one to receive messages and one to send. Normally the main thread will be the sending thread and also the UI.
1. I would separate the communication from the processing into two classes. Have another class in the server, something like ClientSession that deals with any logic. This would have the name of the client session and a reference to the main chat server.
2. As with the connection, the server should be separated into UI and logic. By having these separated it will eb clearer to see what is what. A simple call-back from the server will update the UI.
3. Check your names, you have so many different styles it becomes confusing. Do not use underscores. All variables should use camel case likeThis and classes should be pascal case ThisWay.

if(ddirection > 8.00)
{
direction = Direction.DOWN;
}
if(ddirection < 0.00)
{
direction = Direction.UP;
}
if(direction == Direction.UP)
{
ddirection = ddirection + 0.05;
}
else
{
ddirection = ddirection + 0.05;
}
I am trying to make the double ddirection go up and down between 8.0 and 0.0
The above code does not work. What else can i do?
Direction is an enum, containing UP and DOWN. direction is a variable of type Direction.

How does it not work, is ddirection a local variable or a class one. If it is a local one what is the initial value.
That being said why are you doing the same thing in the direction == Direction.UP if block as in the else block.

I am not sure quite what your values may be for this variable, but if you want it to lie only within the range 0.0 to 8.0, then what is wrong with:
if(ddirection > 8.00)
{
ddirection = 8.00;
}
else if(ddirection < 0.00)
{
ddirection = 0.00;
}

fix it.
1. there is a blatant mistake, actually a very small one (about the size of half a character) with big consequences. And you should have gathered it by observing the actual behavior (or simply by reading the code, which is what you made us do).
2. once the big error is fixed, there still is a little extra flaw: you have organized it such that you first need to get outside the valid range in order to change directions. That isn't very good, you should predict you're going to leave the range and then prevent that.

half a character 
@ Member
Rename that Double-Value, your variables are quite similar, which makes it harder than needed to read the code.
Easy to read == Easy to maintain.
(EDIT: did I really make a "=="  )

I think that you want ddirection to oscillate between two values every time this code is executed so,
(initialize ddirection at 0.0
{
ddirection = 8.0 - ddirection;
direction = (ddirection == 0.0) ? direction.DOWN : direction.UP;
}

could any one can explain about ontology ?
|
|
|
|
|
|
but there were soo many definitions at soo many situations...
so i want to be clear what s ontology in information science...
its definition says conceptualization of a specific domaim...
what does that really mean... ?????

|

Sorry, I don't know, you will need to research it. This is a Java technical forum, and your question is some way outside of the subject.
