They are complicated for the same reason that the dashboard of a fighter jet is more complicated than your car's dashboard: because you're controlling a lot more power and functionality. Deployment descriptors are complicated because they configure J2EE technology components and their containers. J2EE containers provide a high level of standard services (transactions, security, persistence, thread safety, etc.

The purpose of the JavaTM Pet Store Demo is to illustrate design patterns and advanced coding strategies that relate directly to the Java programming language and specifically to the JavaTM 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EETM). A genuinely ported application would have to implement the same design patterns and same coding strategies to really be comparable.

Yes. Sun has recently released the Java 2 Platform, Micro Edition (J2ME) Wireless Toolkit to support the development of client software running on cell phones, two-way pagers, and palmtops. The Java BluePrints program publishes guidelines for developing mobile applications using J2ME clients that connect to J2EE application servers. The Java Smart Ticket Demo illustrates those guidelines in the context of an electronic ticketing scenario.

The Java Pet Store Demo is designed to provide as much sample code as possible for the key aspects of the latest release of the J2EE platform. We deliberately added more code to create a flexible architecture that is fully object-oriented. We were trying to show off concepts and design patterns of Java Enterprise BluePrints, and hence there is more code. Our goal is to offer the developer community a well designed sample application.

The Java Pet Store Demo was not created to be a benchmark. The most important function of the Java Pet Store Demo is to educate. It was meant to illustrate design patterns and best practice guidelines for many important aspects of J2EE applications such as portability and maintainability: Portability gives the developer freedom of choice in selecting the optimal platform for their needs and in reducing the time and effort of migrating from one platform to another.

We don't use stored procedures since they will result in a non-portable application. Our design allows, however, for stored procedures to be added elegantly--all you need to do is to provide an alternate Data Access Object that plugs into the application architecture and makes stored procedure calls. These are essentially a performance optimization that are particular to a specific application and its deployment environment.

The annual J2EE Deployathon clearly demonstrates that the Java Pet Store Demo is extremely portable. Java Pet Store Demo 1.1.2 has successfully been deployed on 9 different J2EE platform/operating system combinations. The Java Pet Store Demo can run on any operating system that supports the J2EE platform. It is possible to run implementations of the J2EE platform on Windows 98 but the recommended systems are Solaris, Linux, Windows NT, or Windows 2000.

Yes, the version 1.3.1 of Java Pet Store Demo demonstrates this. Sun has recently released new Java API standards on web services that illustrate the means for extending the Java Pet Store Demo.

No. To some extent, this falls into performance optimization. We do provide strategies such as using a Stateless Session Bean EJB to hold onto reuseable resources and the ServiceLocator pattern. We don't really address caching of application data very much. We also have some strategies for extending the petstore app to do some caching which have been discussed on the J2EE BluePrints interest list.

Several configuration files in the directory etc/config/wbi/ control WBI Development Kit for Java's operation as well as details such as how WBI Development Kit for Java should work with firewall machines, such as Socks servers and other proxies.

Have you patched up yet? Most of the time, patches will fix the problem. Loki in particular has even made it very easy to patch their ports using the Loki Update (http://updates.lokigames.com/) tool.

Hopefully, NEVER! Every attempt has been made by the Cavalier Kennel Clubs to prevent Cavaliers from falling into the hands of puppy mills or anyone who would resell the dog. The Cavalier breeders adhere to the Code of Ethics which specifically excludes providing any puppies for resale. Responsible Cavalier breeders do their best to screen any prospective puppy buyer and often refuse to sell to a less than "ideal" home

No. Pure-bred Havanese can only be purchased from breeders. They are a rare breed and the total population in the U.S. is only around 4,000.

The Scriptura XBOS Server stores its configuration files, log files and cache in the home directory of the user account running the Scriptura XBOS Server. For example when running the Scriptura XBOS 3.0 Server Console under your own account on a Windows 2000/XP machine, you could find the log files in "C:Documents and SettingsMyAccountscriptura_xbos-3.0Serverlogs". When running the server as a Windows Service, the user home directory might be difficult to locate.

Just installing Webmin will not cause any config file changes to be made. When you start to use it, only the config files related to the changes that you make in Webmin will be modified. For example, using the Apache Webserver module would not effect your Sendmail configuration. If you are using SSL, make sure you connect to a URL like https://myhost:10000/ instead of http://myhost:10000. Without the https, your browser won't use SSL mode and thus will display this error.

Most users should not have to edit any configuration files manually. However, in some cases you might have to supply some information about akwardly placed include files/libraries or you might want to explicitly disable building some of the optional PDL modules. Check the files INSTALL and perldl.conf for details. If you had to manually edit perldl.conf and are happy with the results you can keep the file handy for future reference. Place it in ~/.perldl.

You need java on your PC and it must be enabled in your browser settings. The chances are that you will have java already especially if you are hooked on playing some of these catchy games that you download off the internet. Follow this link to see if you are already java enabled. If not, you can obtain java free of charge (get the JRE not JDK) from http://www.java.sun.com The camera needs a small java program to communicate with the camera.

Windows Server 2003 SP1 and Fedora 3.0 will be supported. All executables must be able to be called from the command line. Java is not installed on machines in the Face and Iris Test Lab. Windows Server 2003 SP1 and Fedora 3.0 will be supported. All executables must be able to be called from the command line. All supporting Matlab libraries must be included with your submission. Matlab is not installed on machines in the Face and Iris Test Lab.

Psi uses XML files called config.xml and (starting in version 0.11) options.xml. Its location depends upon your operating system.

Yes. This mini-game demo for Windows (6.39Mb) and this demo for Mac OSX (Universal Binary) (6.29Mb), called Attack of the Mutant Greys, shows the Game Framework in action but doesn't include any source code.

MaxDB has several configuration files. To locate the files use the information given in Which logfiles exist?.

Special Thanks to Daniel Rackerby for the feedback and contributions to the FAQ. Back to: Mac OS X-IP Setup

There are two places AfterStep configuration files could be. The global directory is usually /usr/local/share/afterstep/ (unless you installed from a binary package, or specified a different place). All configuration files should be here, and really shouldn't be edited. The preferred method for changing your configuration is copying the file you wish to change to ~/GNUstep/Library/AfterStep/, the personal configuration file directory.

The switch allows up to three startup-config files with options for selecting which startup-config file to use for: A fixed reboot policy using a specific startup-config file for a specific boot path (primary or secondary flash) While you can still use remote storage for startup-config files, you can now maintain multiple startup-config files on the switch and choose which version to use for a reboot policy or an individual reboot.

Latest Answer: saswata.purkayastha you are correct. We can can have one web.config file in each different directori...

After upgrading, FireWall-1 loses its state, so you must start the GUI and install the Security Policy.

bash_profile and ~/.bashrc are the two main config files for bash. At the top of .bash_profile the STWing.bash_profile is brought in first. These are the system settings and is updated by the Sysadmin staff, please do not remove it. Add all your changes after that line. note: some examples of these files are included in the Appendix Section A: Supplements. They are for reference, and are simply my way of setting things up. They should only be taken as a guide.

The output of pnpdump should give you the examples you need for your hardware. If you run it with the -c (--config) flag, it should even show how to configure your hardware in the output. The output of pnpdump is supposed to be used as the input to isapnp after editing.

The user's global configuration files of Chamo are stored in the ~/.cameleon2/ directory and are prefixed with "chamo.". The files are created if they don't exist. They are human readable with an OCaml-like syntax. There are also "local" configuration files, that is files stored in the directory where Chamo was launched. By now, we can find: chamo.sourceview.
