is there any obvious reason why the java compiler
cannot load jars from an NTFS filesystem under Linux (Debian) ?
I know for sure that the path I specify is correct and
I have read permit on that FS (not write though). I can

Hi wizards , I need to know how to generate random numbers between -n
and n with matlab , n is a integer .
Thanks in advance .

I'm pretty new to Java, so please don't yell at me if my question is
dumb.
Each public file should be in a separate file. I don't understand why
is it allowed for a file contain additional non-public (default)

is it possible to use a single logger, but log different level of
message into different file, such as info.txt, fatal.txt, error.txt?
thanks...

i'm a pratical question for you.
I've developed a jas application that reads a txt file and convert it
into an array of byte,fro putting it into a blob field of a db mysql.
With big file i go in heap size memory!

I'd like extraxt <br> before span.
example:
<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="text-decoration:
underline;">ff<br>ff</span></span>

A colleague of mine recently told me that he once wrote a web
application that made very heavy use of StringBuffer class (JVM version
1.3) in order to generate code (using Javacc) and experienced the
problem of running out of file handles.

i am working on java-jsp-ajax application and using MS-SQL database.
when i do any update operation using front screen(in html),it gets
updated in the database but it dosen't show those updates in the
front end.

As an old-tymey C and C++ programmer I find Java very nice for
implementing algorithms in, with its garbage collection and array
bounds checking. However, as said old-tymey programmer, I end up
wanting to challenge time and space by building a super optimized

I want to read a file from the current directory.
I did :
BufferedReader myFile = null;
myFile = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("myfile.txt"));

I need a code-sample for reading data from a text file
(including exceptions whether there is need to, and check end-of-file
communication).
(FileReader ?)

I just want to ask that is there any way to add button on the title
bar, with those three buttons on a right, i.e, Close, Maximize,
Minimize. Is there any way for it?

I am looking for an (efficient) implementation of an algorithm for
heirarchical tree comparison.
How does the Eclipse Difference Browser (for Java) work, and where can
I find its implementation?

per

there was an example of implementing enums prior to 5.0  (see below).
In 5.0 you have enum which is sweet for assigning arbitraty values but

                   I am trying to print a landscape paper using J2SE SDK
1.5.0_06 with the native print dialog(windows in my case). When i print in
portrait the printout is perfect but when print in landscape the printout
simpley does not rotate but just shifts downwards.
