 Hi all,

 I am new to Web-Programming and maybe my question is trivial. I want to

 Is this possible?
 I thought that it is only possible to run java code within a servlet.
 Maybe I havn't understood the architecture right. Could anybody explain me
 how the web-container would call / interact with python?
 I haven't found this topic in the documentation.

Re: Tomcat scalability setting - need help please

2010-04-09 Thread Xie Xiaodong
Hello,



Maybe you could just export those data into Excel files (any other format
will do), and provide a download link to those file. Those files could be
generated lazily, means generate the first time it is requested.

I'm just curious, how do people in your company deal with millions of rows
of data with their own eyes?

 Hi George,

 Trust me the people in my client's company would see that much of data. It
 is needed by the production.
 The next best way I can do is to send the resultset object directly to the
 JSP, but I would not go to that extent just yet. I am going to either build
 a new cache mechanism or use ehcache. The companies where I cater is data
 hungry company.

 Thanks

 Clearly instantiating millions of objects is not a strategy for
 scalability.

 You're going to have to re-structure your code to reduce the memory
 footprint of each session.

 Why is your result set returning a million rows? No human would want to see
 that much data.

 You need to restructure your queries and navigation design so that it
 doesn't do this.

  Hi George
 
  Your remark is almost correct. What I did is that I store the result
  of the resultset (which can go up to million lines of rows) in a batch
  of Java beans. Then I set the beans to the HTTP Request and pass them
  to the receiving JSP.
 
  But I do remember to return the connection to the pool. I also try to
  kill the statements, result sets, etc by setting them to null. But I
  realize that java might wait for the memory to be cleared by the
  garbage collector.
 
  This goes back to my second problem. If the user closes the browser,
  the request object form the servlet would lost its way to return the
  result. And this will hog the tomcat performance for a while.
 
  Any tips would greatly be appreciated.
 
  TIA

   When you run the query in your application how are you doing it, e.g.
   by
   calling a stored procedure, or by executing exactly the same SQL

  Most likely the application is storing result sets on the session.

Re: Access Log /Filter/?

2010-03-03 Thread Xie Xiaodong
Hello,


I think log.debug() method should first check current logging levels, or our
code will have those if() {} template everywhere.

I checked java.util.logging.Logger, and found this:

public void log(Level level, String msg, Object param1) {
if (level.intValue()  levelValue || levelValue == offValue) {
return;
}
LogRecord lr = new LogRecord(level, msg);
Object params[] = { param1 };
lr.setParameters(params);
doLog(lr);
}


Java 6 hotspot can determine that the StringBuffer synchronization isn't
actually used across threads in many cases, and thus it doesn't bother
synchronizing. Thus, the performance of the two classes becomes identical.

http://www.javalobby.org/java/forums/t88518.html

But it is more secure to not depend on specific jvm version, so it is more
appropriate to use StringBuilder when necessary.

 Note that this is not actually a part of the AccessLogValve, it's just

 Fair enough: most of the information you'd want to log is from HTTP
 requests (like the URI, for instance). The only things that are
 available for non-HTTP requests are:

 - - current date/time
 - - transaction time
 - - number of bytes read and sent
 - - local address
 - - remote address
 - - request attributes
 - - server name

 Actually, that's quite a bit, but I've never seen an HTTP log that
 doesn't log the URI :)

  long t2 = System.currentTimeMillis();
  long time = t2 - t1;
 
  This isn't your choice, it's in the original code, but why not just do:
 
  long elapsed = System.currentTimeMillis();
  ...
  elapsed = System.currentTimeMillis() - elapsed;
 
  ??
 
  Fewer items on the stack, etc.
 
 
  Except that then it is more difficult to debug.  Right?  It isn't as easy
 to
  inspect the value of
  the current time if you perform the subtraction without first assigning
 the
  current time to a
  variable.

 Fair enough, though debugging this timing code shouldn't really be
 required.

private Date getDate() {
  // Only create a new Date once per second, max.
  long systime = System.currentTimeMillis();
  AccessDateStruct struct = currentDateStruct.get();
  if ((systime - struct.currentDate.getTime())  1000) {
  struct.currentDate.setTime(systime);
  struct.currentDateString = null;
  }
  return struct.currentDate;
  }
 
  I don't understand why this is ThreadLocal, instead of just synchronized
  across the object. Maybe it's slightly faster to avoid the
  synchronization and just use ThreadLocals, but I'm not sure how many
  requests per second a single Thread is going to process, so I'm not
  convinced that caching this data is worth the complexity it requires in
  this class. I'd love to hear from a Tomcat dev about this.
 
 
  Tomcat can (hopefully) answer a larger number of requests per second
  every year on decently modern hardware.  Benchmark it both ways on
  a reasonably good/wide machine and you'll see why avoiding the sync
  is helpful.  I don't think it muddies the code very badly here.

 Okay. Certainly avoiding object creation is a good idea, and avoiding
 highly-contended synchronization is a good idea, too. I'd like to see a
 performance comparison between these strategies, though. Maybe I'll run
 one :)

  The %b portion of the Combined Log Format is documented to be the size
 of
  the object returned to the client, not including the response headers.
  http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/logs.html#common

 Right. Presumably, the Content-Length is synonymous with the above, but
 it might not be. Also, Content-Length is not always set, so you'll get a
 lot of - written in the log even when response bodies actually has
 content. In this implementation, %b is equivalent to
 %{Content-Length}o.

 Counting bytes isn't that big of a deal, either. I'll submit a patch at
 some point... maybe using a different pattern character.

Re: Access Log /Filter/?

2010-03-02 Thread Xie Xiaodong
Thank the comments. I should have rechecked this file before I sent it here.
:)

First, for the init() part: in the super class FilterBase, we have a init()
method which will do the initialization work you mentioned.

Second, you are absolutely right about the log.info(). I first wrote
like this for testing and forgot to get it back to debug level.

In modern jvm, it does not matter much between StringBuffer and
StringBuilder, jvm will change StringBuffer used in single
thread scenario into StringBuilder automaticlly. You could google this
information. There are some benchmark test about it.

I'll check the remaining part tomorrow morning. It is rather late now.

Wish you have a nice day.

Thanks for the comments.

 For the most part, you've just replaced the invoke() method with a
 doFilter() method and introduced init(), which calls start(). Then, you
 removed all the Lifecycle stuff.

 How will Filters be configured in TC7? If they will use the same

 filter
  init-param

 ...style of configuration, then you'll need to have your init() method
 fetch all the init-param values and set those values on the
 AccessLogFilter before calling start().

 I might just re-name start() to init() and make whatever changes are
 necessary.

  private static Log log = LogFactory.getLog(AccessLogFilter.class);

 Oh, the irony.

  public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response,
  FilterChain chain) throws IOException, ServletException {
 
  log.info(In AccessLogFilter doFilter. );

 Obviously, you can't have this log message at the INFO level. I'll
 assume that all logging currently in the code is for development
 purposes and will be removed for a final version.

   if (!isHttpServlet(request, response)) {
  chain.doFilter(request, response);
  return;
  }

 Why does the request have to be an HTTP request in order to have the
 access log run? I would flip the logic around to only do the logging if
 the request is an HTTP request, rather than having this mid-method return.

   HttpServletRequest httpRequest = ((HttpServletRequest) request);
 
  HttpServletResponse httpResponse = ((HttpServletResponse) response);

  // Pass this request on to the next filter in the filterChain
  long t1 = System.currentTimeMillis();
 
  chain.doFilter(request, response);
 
  long t2 = System.currentTimeMillis();
  long time = t2 - t1;

 This isn't your choice, it's in the original code, but why not just do:

 long elapsed = System.currentTimeMillis();
 ...
 elapsed = System.currentTimeMillis() - elapsed;

 ??

 Fewer items on the stack, etc.

  Date date = getDate();
  StringBuffer result = new StringBuffer();

 The original default size for the StringBuffer was 128 characters.
 Presumably, this was done to avoid the cost of re-sizing the
 StringBuffer whenever it grew too large. The default initial capacity of
 a StringBuffer is 16 characters, which is almost certainly too small for
 a reasonable access log entry. You should put the larger size back in.

 While you're at it, use StringBuilder instead to avoid the overhead of
 synchronization for an object in a single-threaded environment.

  public void log(String message) {

 Maybe re-write this method to avoid having to convert from
 StringBuffer/StringBuilder to String: why do the work if you don't have to?

  private static String lookup(String month) {
  int index;
  try {
  index = Integer.parseInt(month) - 1;

 Why not have a dummy month at index 0 and /not/ subtract? Come on...
 we're smarter than the Sun engineers, right? 0 = January? Stupid...

  private Date getDate() {
  // Only create a new Date once per second, max.
  long systime = System.currentTimeMillis();
  AccessDateStruct struct = currentDateStruct.get();
  if ((systime - struct.currentDate.getTime())  1000) {
  struct.currentDate.setTime(systime);
  struct.currentDateString = null;
  }
  return struct.currentDate;
  }

 I don't understand why this is ThreadLocal, instead of just synchronized
 across the object. Maybe it's slightly faster to avoid the
 synchronization and just use ThreadLocals, but I'm not sure how many
 requests per second a single Thread is going to process, so I'm not
 convinced that caching this data is worth the complexity it requires in
 this class. I'd love to hear from a Tomcat dev about this.

Hello, Christopher,


No, there is no AccessLogFilter in Tomcat 7 for now. I've got my version of
AccessLogFilter during Google Summer Code 2009, but has not yet submit it
for some reason. Please attach your version so we could discuss it and make
an AccessLogFilter in Tomcat 7.

 All,

 I just started to write a filter that did request timing logging, and I
 looked at AccessLogValve for inspiration for how to parse a log pattern
 and then spit it out for every request.

 I realized that AccessLogValve can actually do everything I want it to
 do, already: log request time plus some request attributes.

 However, I may have occasion to want to /skip/ some of the transaction
 timing: that is, say, insert it between existing filters. That's not
 possible (that I know of) for Valves, because they are always before
 Filters in the pipeline.

 I believe Tomcat 7 is discarding Valves in favor of using the Filter
 interface. Is there already in existence an AccessLogFilter?

 I checked svn and I can see that AccessLogValve is in the 'valves'
 package, and that there /is/ a 'filters' package but it only has a
 subset of 'valves' that we've all grown to love.

 Is this just a class that hasn't been updated for TC7, yet?

 If so, I'd be happy to do the conversion and submit my code for inclusion.

 Thanks,

Very nice work, Thank you for the sharing.

ch...@christopherschultz.net wrote:

 -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
 Hash: SHA1

 All,

 My company recently decided to alter our password complexity
 requirements for our webapp, and I got to implement the changes. What fun!

 We use a regular expression to enforce our password complexity, and it
 needed to be changed. Since we are starting to branch-out into
 populations that aren't necessarily using written English everywhere, I
 chose to change our naive [a-z]- and [A-Z]-type checking to a mroe
 enlightened \p{Ll} and \p{Lu}, respectively. (Readers' note: jakarta-oro
 does not support this notation, so you'll want to use Java's built-in
 regular expression support to do this).

 Anyhow, when making changes to things security-related, it pays to test
 /everything/, so I grabbed 4 other people from my group and had them
 each test 15 sample passwords against our 6 different forms that accept
 password-change entry. Everything went fine.

 Except when I then tried to login from our home page with the password
 1πππ (that's a '1' digit followed by 7 Greek Pi characters, in
 case your email reader can't render that), and I got a failure. I
 figured I must have fat-fingered something, so I tried again and all was
 well.

 My spidey-sense tingling, I logged-out and repeated the process: again,
 my first login attempt was unsuccessful, while the second was. Hmm. Upon
 closer inspection, our opening page is a static HTML file served by
 Apache httpd -- no Tomcat involvement. After a failed login, a page that
 looks exactly like the home page is sent to the user, but it's
 different: /and/ it's served by Tomcat.

 The difference was that the original request's response (for
 /index.html) had a Content-Type of text/html, while the failed login
 had a response Content-Type of text/html; charset=UTF-8.

 It's out old pal what's the default encoding, again? coming back to
 haunt me, and here I am telling people on this list that they just don't
 understand the history of the web and how to do things properly.
 Evidently, I wasn't doing them properly, either.

 All those complaints about the way that URL-encoded GET parameters can
 get messed up based upon Content-Type and encoding guesses, etc. and the
 solution is just to use POST is, well, only half the truth. Yes, POST
 gets you away from the browser's preference for what encoding to use
 before URL-encoding the bytes, but, with POST the Content-Type is
 application/x-www-form-urlencoded, which means there's no charset
 associated with it. :(

 So, what's to be done?

 Well, I immediately thought of two solutions:

 meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html; charset=UTF-8 /
 and
 form accept-charset=UTF-8

 Knowing that web browsers are notoriously inconsistent with one another
 regarding certain things, I was sure that I'd have a giant mess when it
 came to testing, and that I'd have to figure out how to trick each
 version of each browser into doing my bidding.

 First, I had to make sure that they all /failed/ in the same way (that
 is to say, that the login failed the way I expected it to fail), then I
 had to see what magical incantations would be necessary to actually get
 the login to succeed.

 I'm happy to report that, for /all/ of the following browsers, */both/*
 solutions worked!

 Mozilla Firefox 2.0
 Mozilla Firefox 3.0
 Mozilla Firefox 3.5
 Mozilla Firefox 3.6
 Opera 9.6
 Opera 10.10
 Apple Safari 3.2
 Apple Safari 4.0
 Google Chrome 4.0
 MSIE 6.0
 MSIE 7.0
 MSIE 8.0

 I'm inclined to use the form accept-charset=UTF-8 solution, because
 that does not involve lying to the browser about the encoding of the
 actual HTML document. Instead, I'd rather advertise that I will only
 accept UTF-8 encoding and leave it at that. Sadly, the client still
 doesn't tell me that the underlying encoding being used to urlencode the
 POST parameters is UTF-8, but at least they're doing what I want them to
 do, and they all agree on behavior!

 So, score 1 for standards, at least in this instance.

I think it just validates the xml file using the DTDs or xml-schemas

happen.

Re: Trouble parsing datetime strings

2009-05-11 Thread Xie Xiaodong
Hello,

Date formats are not synchronized. It is recommended to create separate
format instances for each thread. If multiple threads access a format
concurrently, it must be synchronized externally.
This is from the reference of JDK API.


2009/5/11 David kerber dcker...@verizon.net

 This is related to the performance issues discussed in the thread
 Performance with many small requests.

 When I reworked my servlet to synchronize only on pieces that needed to be
 synchronized, rather than on the entire request processing routine, I am now
 throwing an exception when parsing a string into a java.util.Date variable.
  It only happens occasionally, maybe once every few dozen to a hundred or so
 requests, and I can't figure out why it doesn't work all the time.

 Declared at the class level, I have:

   private static final SimpleDateFormatsdfFullDateTime = new
 SimpleDateFormat( -MM-dd HH:mm:ss );


 Then in the request processing method, I have

   dateTimeStr = dateStr +   + timeStr;
   try {
   dataDate = sdfFullDateTime.parse( dateTimeStr );
   } catch ( Exception e ) {
   writeLog( Unable to parse dataTime string: ', dateTimeStr + ':  +
 e );
   }


 (the try/catch is there only for debugging this issue), and in the log I'm
 seeing:

 2009-05-11 09:19:54: Unable to parse dateTime string: ':  '2009-05-11
 09:19:37': java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: '


 Which I don't understand at all; dateDate (java.util.Date), dateStr
 (String), timeStr (String) and dateTimeStr (String) are all declared in the
 processing method, NOT at the class level.

 Maybe I should move the declaration of the SimpleDateFormat into the
 processing method?  Or synchronize the date parse?


 I'm kind of lost here; any help appreciated!!

 Dave

Re: Performance with many small requests

2009-05-07 Thread Xie Xiaodong
Hello,

  IMHO, it would be better to use java concurrency package now than to use
the old synchronize mechanism. The old mechanism is to low level and error
prone. I think you could have a thread pool and some handler pattern to
handle the request from your customer.

 That would be my impression too. It is best to avoid making the

 David, do you have any reason for this? Beyond the counter, what other
 stuff do you synchronise? Also, it has generally been recommended to me to
 avoid hitting the disk in every request, since you may result with an I/O
 bottle neck, so if you can write the logs in batches you will have better
 performance. If you know that you are only going to have very few users at a
 time (say, less than 10), it may not be worth the time optimising this, but
 if you know that you are going to get at least several hundred, then this is
 something to watch out for.


 Thanks for the comments, Andre-John and Peter.  When I wrote that app, I
 didn't know as much as I do now, but I'm still not very knowledgeable
 about synchronized operations.

 The synchronized section doesn't do a whole lot, so it doesn't take long
 to process.  My question is, what kinds of operations need to be
 synchronized?  All I do is decrypt the data from the POST, send a small
 acknowledgement response back to the site, and write the line to the log
 file.  Does that sound like something that would need to be
 synchronized?  If not, pulling that out would be a really easy test to
 see if it helps my performance issue.


 I am no expert in this myself, but I know enough to help me out in most day
 to day scenarios. What you should be reading up on is concurrency in Java. A
 few useful resources:

  site: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/concurrency/
  book:
 http://www.amazon.com/Java-Concurrency-Practice-Brian-Goetz/dp/0321349601

 I actually bought the book myself and find it a handy reference.

 What I can say is that any time two threads are likely to access the same
 object, which has the potential to be modified by one of them, then you will
 need to synchronize access to the object. If the object is only going to be
 read during the life of the unit of work, then you will need not
 synchronize it. You shouldn't simply use the synchronize keyword as a
 magical solve all for threading issues and instead need to understand what
 the nature of the interactions are between the threads, if any. In certain
 cases it is actually better to duplicate the necessary resources, have each
 thread work on its copy and then synchronize the value at the end.

 In the case of your code, you should ask what are the shared objects that
 are going to modified by the threads. You should also look if it is even
 necessary for the objects to be shared. Also consider whether for the call
 cycle the objects you are going to modify are only available on the stack,
 as opposed to a class or instance member.

 To give you a real world analogy: consider a home that is being built and
 you have an electrician and a plumber:
  - is it better to have one wait until the other is finished (serial
 execution)?
  - is it possible for them to be working on different stuff and not be
 stepping on each other's feet? (parallel execution)
  - if you need them to work at the same time, what is the cost of
 coordinating each other so that
they do not interfere with the other? (synchronization issues)
 In many ways multi-threading is not much different, and you should be
 asking yourself the same type of questions.

Hi,
   Are there any conflict between your jar and those jars used by Tomcat?



2009/4/30 shiping.c...@csiro.au

 Hi,

 I am deploying an axis2 web service with Tomcat v6.0.

 The web service required a third-part jar file, say x.jar
 I can make the work service working with Axis2 standalone server by putting
 x.jar into [axis2_home]/lib.

 According to Tomcat documents and corresponding discussion, I put x.jar
 into [Tomcat 6.0_home]\webapps\axis2\WEB-INF\lib, as deploying with Tomcat
 6.However, it does NOT work!

 Then, I tried to put x.jar onto [Tomcat 6.0_home]\lib, although I
 understand it is not a good idea.
 It still does NOT work!

 At end, I add x.jar to the java classpath using the Tomcat 6 configure GUI
 (the small icon).
 It works this time!

 So I wonder if it is a bug of Tomcat 6, or I did something wrong.
 I suppose that it be a very common issue and have been heavily discussed.
 Why it is still there?

 I would be very grateful if I can get an answer. In addition, other users
 may also have experienced the same issue.
