What's in it for me?

1998-12-11 Thread khiillan

Hi,

The following is a copy of the letter that caused me
to get involved in the most lucrative and easy to 
operate home-based business I could ever imagine.  
I never thought I'd be the one to talk about 
something like this, but this is simply the best mail 
order business I've ever seen.  With just a little bit 
of effort, you too can make money in the mail order 
business.  If you're asking yourself "What's in it for 
me?" just keep reading.



Hello!

My name is Anne Greenwood;  I'm a 30 year old 
wife, mother, and a part-time business consultant.  I 
generally delete all unsolicited "junk" email and use 
my account primarily for business.  I received what 
I assumed was the same email countless times and 
deleted it each time.

A few months ago I received it again and finally 
read it.  After reading it, I thought, "Okay, I guess 
I'll give it a try.  After all, it's a very small 
investment and has the potential to make some extra 
cash."  I promptly mailed in the cash and ordered all 
the reports that were offered.  

After receiving the reports via email, I paid a friend 
to send out some bulk email advertisements for me.  
I could not believe the results.  Within a few days, I 
began getting orders for reports.  The orders kept 
increasing until my mail box was overflowing with orders 
on a daily basis.  I could not believe the response I 
was getting.  It was so good that I continued to send 
out email advertisements.  The unbelievable part was 
that it was so easy.  I just kept collecting the orders 
for reports and spent about an hour each day sending 
them out via email.  What could be easier?

If I can do this, anyone can.  Please read the complete 
instructions below and you will see how easy and 
lucrative this can be.



This is a legal money making opportunity.  You are about 
to embark on the most profitable and unique program you 
may ever see.  To do this yourself, you are not required 
to come in contact with anyone, do any hard work or even 
leave your house (except to get your mail and deposit 
your money in the bank.).  This is your chance, so 
don't pass it up.

Here is how it works.  

Whenever you are involved in a mail order 
business, the first thing you need to have is 
something to sell.  We can give you that, problem 
solved.  Now all you need to do is send out email 
solicitations to as many people as you can 
advertising that you have information for sale.  In 
other words, in your email you must list a few 
informational reports that you will send to people 
via email.They have full approval to sell these 
reports themselves or they may just use them for 
their own purposes and the useful information they 
contain.  When you begin getting orders for reports, 
simply email them out.

Here are the reports that we have for sale:

1. How to Effectively Cut Your Grocery Bill by  
Half - Tips on preventing impulse buys and 
maximizing on sales and coupons.  $2.00

2. Do It Yourself Household Remedies - Do you 
know how to make your candles last twice as long, 
remove rust stains from fabric, or make your own 
Home Brew?  Order this report and you will!  $4.00

3. Money Saving Tips - Save money on insurance, 
loans, major appliances, prescription drugs and 
much more with this report.  $4.00

4. Sweepstake and Contest Secrets Revealed - Learn 
how to increase your chances of winning any contest 
with this informative report.  $2.00

5. Practical Guide to Government Jobs - Learn about 
the rules, forms and qualifications needed to get a 
government job.  $7.00

6. Craft and Sewing Secrets Revealed - Do you know 
how to stop clothes from catching on wood hangers, 
remove grease stains from silk, or a money make craft 
business you can start today?  You would if you owned 
this report.  $3.00

You can order all 6 reports for just $20.00.  That is
a 10% savings.  Remember that you can resell these 
valuable reports or just use them for the valuable 
information they provide.  

To order:

Send your Name, Complete Postal Address, and 
Email address to the address below along with your 
payment and list of which reports you are ordering.
Remember to write the full name of each report when 
you order.

Send orders to:

NoCharge
P.O. Box 35498
Fayetteville, NC  28303

Payment can be in the form of cash or money order.
You will receive your reports, via email, the same 
day that we receive your order.

Don't miss your opportunity to start your own mail 
order business.  Where else can you start such a 
lucrative business with only a $20 investment?  Can 
you afford to pass this by?

Hi,
I want to send e-mail from my java program.

for that i opend socket on 25 (SMTP) port, and sent mail
by executing HELP, MAIL FROM:, RCPT TO:, DATA.
This is working fine only in the internal network. But if
try send to hotamil/rocketmail they are not allowing to
bind on that port.
(   new Socket(domainName, 25);   )

Pls tell, how to send mail from my java program.

Re: Congratulations to Blackdown!

1998-12-11 Thread Pierre LATECOERE

For the Tools I would recommend:
JBuilder 2 or IBM Visual age.
They are the best for visual development and for DB access.

Visual J++ is to much Windows oriented and could be a problem for later porting to
Linux/Unix platforms.
Java Workshop is too rudimentary for large application development.
For the books, see Oreilly books, they are among the best
(http://java.oreilly.com/). You will find JDBC books as well as the last on
JFC/Java2.

Possible fix for JDK 1.1.7 JNI problems

1998-12-11 Thread Bernd Kreimeier


I have been reporting problems with JNI/Invocation
with JDK 1.1.7v1a+native for apps that use libdl.so,
a bug which has been confirmed by Blackdown.

By accident I discovered a quick patch on this problem
that seems to work fine on my Debian "slink" snapshot, 
so if you happen to be stuck with a similar problem, 
give it a try.


 #!/bin/sh
 # Preload JVM DLL, call app next.
 # The app in question is linked against libdl.so,
 #  but not linked against libjava.so. It does
 #  use dlopen("libJ.so"), and libJ.so is linked
 #  against libjava.so. libJ.so does invocation 
 #  of a JVM, app is not Java aware.
 # Without the preload, this fails 
 #  on every RH 5.x and Debian 2.x I tried so far.
 LD_PRELOAD="libjava.so" app


The funny thing is that I tried this rather by
accident. Rumor had it that the problem was due
to the order in which symbols are resolved, and
this makes sure that libjava.so gets resolved
first. See "man 8 ld.so":

 LD_PRELOAD
   A  whitespace-separated  list  of additional, user-
   specified, ELF shared libraries to be loaded before
   all  others.  This can be used to selectively over­
   ride functions in other shared libraries.

Who knows, maybe this works under other circumstances,
for other problems, too.

Re: How can I debug Java Program??

1998-12-11 Thread Ernst de Haan

Hi Han,

There are different approaches one can take on debugging a Java program:
1) Using System.out.println's at places you expect trouble.
2) Use a debugMode boolean property throuhout your program and a
(central?) logger. Make your object log info/warning/error messages to
the logger. Make the logger decide what to display to System.err (for
example), based on the debugMode condition.
3) Use a debugger provided by an IDE, like JBuilder or Symantec Visual
Cafe
4) Use the JDK Java debugger \:( (wouldn't do this if I were you)

You're not talking about _one_ .java file, are you? If so, I'd first
break it up in pieces that are not so hard to handle. Would probably
improve your design too.

JDK1.1.6 - Realizing GUI

1998-12-11 Thread George Karabotsos

Hello,

I am experiencing a problem under JDK1.1.6 (I am downloading 1.1.7 as I
am writing this e-mail).

The problem is as follows, I invoke my program and I my UI does not
appear.  If I add the option -v either in the java or jre command it
appears; if I unsetenv the DYN_JAVA variable then my UI appears again.

I was able to run this program with no problems when it was considerably
smaller and without the using JDBC(gnu MySql driver).

I as wondering whether anybody else has encountered the same problem?

Regards,

George

> IBM Visual age.

I really recomend VisualAge for Java 2.0. They have an awesome development environment
and we have had a petition asking for a Linux port. It was mentioned that IBM would
receive such petition and make some analisys, hence it MAY be possible to see a Linux
version in some time.  VAJava has many nice features such as versioning control,
incremental compiling, code managemente (you will have all versions of your code and
you won't have to bother about files, etc.), very nice debugger, etc. As you may see I
am an excited user of VAJava with which I have developed many applets so far. Of
course there is also the visual tool (I personally don't use it, but it is nice). The
VAJava nesgroup at IBM is also a great resource for dismissing your questions.
Finally, I had VAJava 1.0 and IBM sent VAJava 2.0 (full retail box) to every single
licensee free of charge... (Who else you remember has done that?).

I hope this helpJVc.

[I don't think there's a Mail API in Java 1.1,
but there may well be one in 1.2, so this
applies if you can't wait for 1.2 to be
shipped for Linux.]

The best way is probably to allow an external
program to be configured which will actually
send the mail.

Have a configuration string, initially set to:
``/usr/lib/sendmail -t''. Allow people to
reconfigure this easily.

To send mail, start this program and pipe the
mail message to it, including To:, Cc:, From:,
Subject: and all other headers as required.
Make sure there's a blank line between headers
and message, and finish the message by writing
a single ``.'' on a line on its own. You may
need to escape ``.'' characters which appear
as legitimate parts of the message at the
beginning of a line.

For portability to Windows, you will unfortunately
have to write a little program which replaces
sendmail. It just needs to accept the message
and connect to a *user-configurable* machine
and SMTP port. (Note that most mail can be
relayed locally - it does not need to be sent
directly to the final mail server).

PS: for the newbies who have never heard about TYA:
it's a JIT distributed in source code under GPL.
Just try it.

PPS: once again thanks to all feedback I've gotten.



BUG? Modal dialogs don't call subclass constructors!!!

1998-12-11 Thread Dimitris Vyzovitis

Hi everyone,
It appears there is a nasty bug in a modal dialog's construction
process.
If I subclass a modal dialog that appears in its constructor (ie the
constructor ends with the typical pack(); show(); setResizable( false );
),
the subclass constructor doesn't get called unless the dialog is
disposed.
This is an example:
Consider this base class constructor:

class Wizard extends DIalog
{

// 

public Wizard( java.awt.Frame parent, String title, boolean modal,
boolean resizable )
  throws java.awt.AWTException
 {
  super( parent, modal );

  setTitle( title );
  _createControls();


  addWindowListener( new java.awt.event.WindowAdapter()
 {
  public void windowClosing( java.awt.event.WindowEvent evt )
  {
   onCancel();
  }
 });

  pack();
  show();

  setResizable( resizable );
 }

//.
}
and let the subclass constructor be:

class NoiseWizard extends Wizard
{

// 
public NoiseWizard( Component master, NoiseBuilder builder ) throws
AWTException
 {
  super( components.applet.AppletUtilities.getTopLevelParent( master ),
  "Noise Builder Wizard", false, false );

  builder_ = builder;

  System.out.println( "NoiseWizard constructor finished..." );

 }

// .

}


What happens is that the message only appears after the dialog is
disposed
This DOESN'T happen in windows, jdk1.1.7a (still there ;-} )

It looks like a bug to me, what do you think?

(I know the workariund, have the sub-class handle the appearance, but
shouldn't it better if someone could fix this bug? )

Yes, and even tough the version 1.0 was just $99.99 everyone who
registered before October 31st has received (or is about to receive) the
version 2.0 free of charge. I got mine sent by courier mail... Now,

Re: VisualAge for Java 2.0

1998-12-11 Thread Christopher Hinds

I am using both VAJava 2.0 and Symantec Visual Cafe 3.0 for my
development
efforts. Both products a comparable interms of price for the base
product , around $99.

However I find the VAJava 2.0 to be a bit slow because if SmallTalk like
source
workspace and repository which manages both version control and dynamic
compile
in realtime. That is not to say that it is not a good product overall. I
think for OOP
software developer the SmallTalk approach excellent.

Bottom line is if you are used to text based IDEs like Visual Cafe( a
very good product also),
JBuilder( very Delphi like) , J++( not a good IDE at all!!!) , using
VAJava 2.0
will take some time to get used to.

Cheers
Chris

This behavior is correct. show() on a modal dialog will block until
the dialog is hidden by calling hide() or dispose().

By the way: This means that your setResiable(false) will have no
effect because it won't get executed until the dialog is hidden.

If show() doesn't block immediately on windows then it's a bug in
windows JDK.

I'll try to bring this on topic (sort of) for java-linux: sign the
petition for porting IBM Visual Age for Java to Linux. It's on Scott
Stanchfields' pages... can't raise it right now, maybe at
http://www.jguru.com/Partners/VAJ/tips/

Visual Age for Java is a totally great, awesome product. I really like
using it. It's the only "IDE" I've ever used that really seems to focus
on the object model and actually accelerates finding & fixing problems.

My opinion on Visual Cafe is that it's to unstable for real use. The
last Beta version of VAJava2 was as stable or more so than the release
of Cafe 2.5.

Killing Applets in browsers

1998-12-11 Thread Thor Erik Karlsen




This is a proplem that has been irritating me 
since the day I started developing applets(not that long ago). Is there a 
WORKING way an applet can destroy itself and tell the browser that its dead? I 
always have to start the browser again and reload the applet during development. 
Destroy() dont work. What im looking for is some code within the applet that 
solves the problem once for all.

JDBC-connection in Linux

1998-12-11 Thread Thor Erik Karlsen




Im developing a system that uses both servlets 
and applets. So far we have used NT4, IIS4 with JRun 2.2a, MS SQL Server 6.5 and 
Symantec dbAnywhere Server as the platform.
I have Red Hat 5.0 installed at home and now I 
want to use it as the platform, for testing purposes. What database should I 
use, is it free, and what JDBC-middleware do I use?

Java 1.2

1998-12-11 Thread Michael Privat

Hi,
I realise you probably get this question ten thousand times a day,
but is there a Java v1.2 porting project ? Is there any approximation
about when it would be available ?

Thanks a lot,

The upgrade from VAJava 1.0 into VAJava 2.0 costed $ 0 for whoever
registered before October 31st, 1998. How much did the upgrade for Visual
Cafe' Cost? I got my VAJava 2.0 by courier mail, didn't spend a penny and I
must say I am amazed by IBM's effort towards VAJava, as well as VAC++, etc.
Their newsgroup is awesome. Virtually any questions (even programming
oriented) are replied usually in less than 6h by someone at IBM as well as
lots of developers.

Yes, I am certainly impressed with the tool. It has been certainly the best
IDE I've ever seen. For that reason I got VAC++ 4 (beta, but I am looking
forward for the final release) to replace the lousy MSVC++ I had to use for
some projects which didn't fit Linux.

If IBM do release a VAJava for Linux I will get even more respect for IBM. I
have been impressed by most software from IBM (Speech recognition,
Development Tools, etc.).

This is quite off-topic tough and I will refrain from posting follow ups to
this matter.

JVc.

I downloaded it this URL. and it has JDBC driver also..
but I didn't try it. then I didn't know about How easy to install.. .

Hmm,
this was the suggested workaround for a KDE related glitch (a
modal non-resizable dialog doesn't appear under KDE, unless setResizable
is called after pack and show).
And the situation isn't quite as you describe, since the dialog that
appears (before the subclass constructor is actually executed) is not resizable.
Furthermore, how do you explain the fact that if I use the native threads,
the subclass constructor is called?
I am not  sure that you are correct in your suggestion.

If show() doesn't block immediately on windows then it's a bug in
windows JDK.
 
A bug in every possible jdk implementation under windows (netscape, sun,
microsoft)? Don't think so...
Just don't forget that windows implementations use native thraeds (and
it behaves as expected with linuxthreads as well)

I wrote a short program and tested it with 1.1.7, 1.2 (both with
green and native threads) on Solaris and with 1.1.7 (green threads
and native threads) and 1.2 native threads (not available yet) on Linux:
All show the same behavior -- the execution stops after show().

Where does the execution stop on windows? After the finishing the
execution of the topmost constructor?

Could you please send me your code, so I can take a closer look
at this?

Note that we are talking about modal dialogs but your posted example
creates a *non*-modal dialog:

Most unix-oriented GUIs, including Java, run on TOP of X-windows, just like
Java runs on top of MS Windows.
