You know that Element is a subinterface of the Node interface, right?
And you know that you can invoke Node#getNodeType(). And you can see
from the javadocs that you can compare the result of the invocation
to Node.ELEMENT_NODE, eh? Put it all together and it should become
obvious as to how you can then cast a Node of the appropriate type
to an Element. Then do with it what you will...

Yes I do.

Yes, I realized I could call that but did not know it could be usefull.

<quote>And you can see

No, I did not see this or know about it.  All I have been reviewing is
the javadoc class interfaces and papers.  I did originally try to
typecast,  my original code looked like :

<code>
Element El = (Element) (NodeListObj.item(i))
</code>

, but the execution barfed on it, so figured I they were not
compatible.

I am relatively new to java (have always been a C language guy), so
have picked up a thing or two, but am no where an expert on the
language, so what javadocs should I be looking for?  I have basically
always just viewed what I think of as the class interface.  Thanks for
the help!

Since you were so frank, permit me to share. Best place to start is
here:
<http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/plugin/dom/index.html>
Of course this assumes that you've already consumed and understood
the docs here:
<http://www.w3.org/DOM>
(Note the change from w3c.org to w3.org)

A quick check of my personal codebase finds constructs like the
following:

     NodeList nodeList = null;
     Node     node = null;
     Element  elem = null;
     ...

     nodeList = <rootelement>.getNodesByTagName( "someName" );
     ...

     for( int i = 0; i < nodeList.getLength(); i++ ) {
         node = nodeList.item( i );
         if( node.getNodeType() != Node.ELEMENT_NODE )
             throw( new IllegalArgumentException( ... ) );
         elem = (Element) node;
     }

IOW, not much different from other common Java code. You just use
the node type to determine whether the subsequent cast will be
acceptable.

If this still seems too "fuzzy" then feel free to drop me a line
off-ng and I can probably "scare" up (forgive the All Hallow's Eve
reference) some code for you.

Hello Everyone,

     Sorry this isn't exactly java but I was thinking about writing
this piece of software and I didn't know if there is allready one out
there. I want to write a program that compares two live images (from
webcam's perhaps) of the same object, but at slightly different angles
and have the software estimate the distance the object is from the
cameras.

Does anyone know of software allready out there that does this?

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Raymond Lee) 

I want to know if I use <logic:equal> tag, I need to take care all
different cases. Looks like there are no else tag in Struts.

For example, in JSP scriplets without Struts, I may do this:

<%
 if (returnValue.equals("0")
 { ...
 }
 else //means returnValue="1"
 { ...
 }
%>

But in Struts, I need to do this:
<logic:equal name= "returnValue " value= "0 " > 
... 
</logic:equal > 

<logic:equal name= "returnValue " value= "1 " > 
... 
</logic:equal > 

//etc...

In this case, that is fine. But if there are so many different cases,
it is tedious to specify all possiblitites in order to use
<logic:equal> tag.

Please discuss and advise. Thanks!!

Thanks for your reply
   Generally, i will put string into them. I believe hash table have
better retrievement performance, because it uses key to retrieve the
value. But i don't know how good is it, so if sun provide me some
official doc, i will very happy.

Yeah I knew that (posting as freddiemac), but I was hoping he would give 
some clarity to his thoughts.  Also, I was wondering if he knew enough 
about his server setup to know if URL rewriting was appropriate here.  I 
have very successfully appended info to urls routed internally, which 
his servlet could pick up.

Madhur --
I don't recognize the syntax -- is this a JSP page or something?  I only 
use servlets directly handling service requests, so my answer may not apply.
I always get an exception using sendRedirect() if I have executed the

but not without.  servlet contain 2.3 I think.  I thought it was funny, too.

So you will have three people browing your web page and you want to see 
what they are looking at?

You will have to develop your own communication language and send info 
back and forth like a hidden instant messaging service.  Your client 
visits your page and loads the applet, which in turn says to the server 
"Hey buddy I've got a live one.  Pop up in front of that bozo's 
solitaire game and annoy the hell out of him."

why?

Okay, thanks for the clarification about JAD files.

By the way, I have an answer on how to install my MIDlets on Palm PDAs like
my Tungsten E. I joined a Palm developer's group and asked there how to
install MIDlets with only a HotSync cable and found that it is not very
hard; you have to convert your JAD and JAR file combination into a PRC with
a tool that is free from Palm. This URL
<http://pluggedin.palmone.com/regac/pluggedin/auth/Java.jsp> contains a
download link to the WebSphere Micro Environment Toolkit. When unzipped, the
toolkit's main tool is jartoprc.exe and jartoprc_w.exe, the command line and
GUI versions respectively of the tool that converts a MIDlet into a PRC file
that can be sent to a Palm PDA via a standard HotSync. The whole process is
documented in a PDF called UserGuide-PalmOS5.pdf, found within the toolkit.
I have followed the instructions and successfully installed a HelloWorld
MIDlet on my Palm; it works fine.

Thanks for your help in getting me this far!!

as if you had a clue

If I did not care (more about the people with slow connections)
I probably would not have added this to my Java FAQ.

If i have a table in jsp, and the user can sort by different columns.
Should I code in Java, or let JavaScript to do that? No matter which
way, I still need to code, there are no API to do the sorting. Is that
true?

please advise. thanks!!

I considered supplying the answer Tony gave - 'ask the user'
(and, FWIW, I express it much as he did).

Too often devlopers forget the simple and obvious soulutions.

I think you should stop seeing it as a 'funny' answer and
give it serious consideration.  It is porobably more robust
than the solution I was looking at.

Don't forget that in this situation, the user is actively 
and knowledgeably (in the sense it is not a random pop-up
or spyware) using your software.  It seems entirely reasonable 
that your program will, once*, ask the user where their CD drive
is.  Once told, your program can write it to 'user.home' and use
that information subsequently.

In the event the CD drive identified in your file in user.home
disappears, ask the user again.

Ah, that explains that.

I'd seen that client before, thanks for the post.

You might start by consulting an FAQ.

It always pays to repeat the subject in the body as
a lot of people ignore the subject.

TOPIC: Alternative to change log4j logging level at runtime?

==========================================================================

== 1 of 1 ==

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Eclifeww) 

Hi all,

I am invesitaging the way to change the log4j logging level at
runtime, and you comments are highly appreciated.

I have tried to use the logger.setLevel api which works fine in a toy
program. The toy program opens a server socket and once it receives
the client input thro' socket, it changes the logging level. However,
I am not sure whether it will has problem in multi-thread environment.

The api call in Log4j of the setLevel is simple as follows.
  public void setLevel(Level level) {
    this.level = level;
  }

Will it be problem?, if two thread access the level instance variable
in log4j. One reading it and one updating it?

Moreover, is there any build-in mechanism in Log4j to reload the
log4j.properties at regular interval? Thus, the logging level is
reloaded accordingly.

Please englighten me.

Thanks in advance for your ideas and inputs.

Earth

You use \uxxxx where the xxxx is the hex value of the Unicode
characters.
