I am
sorry I missed the earlier pieces of conversation. But is the hidden
reference to Jason Hunter or Simon Roberts? Their books are awesome,
though of course you maybe looking for more advanced texts.
best,
Amrinder
Thanks.
I have my professional tools now and the tool
vendors have the same mind set as myself.
Incidentally Mr. Kieple you kept saying you get
your database to do everything for you.
Do you know what Genericity means and who does it
?
Also if one picks up a book and the book authors
are complete amateurs
you know it is time to change your career.i.e.
JSP PRO.
Best Regards,
Zahid

Dear All, 1. When I logged on this list the very first time
I had just completed installing all the versionsof tomcat servlet engine & Apache
webserver. My reasons behind this was obviously to find
outany enhancements or fixes
which occurred since buying JSP PRO the book.That was the first time I had bought a book in my
IT career.I am used to using
commercial tools and professional formal training.I have spent some five years in development and
the only thing I knoware full
lifecycle projects. I have worked on :-Aircraft Fuel Management
Systems.Aircraft Engine
monitoring systems.Mult-million pound Customer Care & billing systems for the
telecom industry.My latest
stint was a two years in a software house where I
completedsome projects whilst
in charge of others but mostly trouble shooting. 2. I noticed that two people were asking each
other questions and answers on this line.Their question was I have just setup a webserver
and it doesn't work.The reply
was that one should rename the .asp to index.jsp. 3. Personally I have never heard of such a
pathetic description of a technical problemduring my career in IT. I also noticed that one
of the versions of tomcat had an aliasfor spoofing servlets. 4. Feeling a bit sorry I decide to show those people how to
describe a technical problem.I also left a clue that there is an
enhancement. 5. It has
also been confirmed that the account pretending to be a Pakistani was not
a Pakistanfurthermore I have
no idea what "you will find everything you want up there"
means. 6. Solaris 8 - My
intention of logging the solaris 8 issue on this line was to report that
my model of CDre-writer isn't
supported. The appropriate person contacted me and I reported the issue to
him,which he confirmed. I was
asked by one job interviewee if you had ever used Unix because it
appearedthat I do not know
how to install an operating system. Actually it may not have occurred to
anybody herebut there is
plenty of hardware not supported by some O/S. My CD DD R/W is one of
them.I know of another very
serious problem. 7. I
was informed that Oracle has CRM as a result of my postings about
Datablades on another job interview.I was informed that they have very high standards by the
employment agencies.Actually
you couldn't possibly have high standards because you don't know what
Datablades are.There is
another fundamental point you have overlooked about Databases and
Java. 8. A lady asked me
was it difficult to set up tomcat.No I was being polite to the people who were renaming everything
to index.html.It was just a
port listener & text parser to me with somelogic meeting specification.I don't personally write such tools but I know
how they work.Thanks for the
concern it was very nice of you. Best Regards,Zahid
