Building Calendar With Automated Employee Vacation Planner?
Apr 4, 2014
Every year, she has to plan when her employee's can go on vacation for the summer holidays - MANUALLY. It takes weeks to solve the puzzle, because she has several kinds of employee's hired, with different skills. And at all days there must be X amount of employees with skill1 at work, plus Y amount of employees with skill2 etc, and they also need special "off-days" in comparison to when they last worked and so on. It's quite the math puzzle.
I've worked a little with C#, and built a prototype of a Support System (Ticket based), so I got the basics down of programming, and I know Java and C# are quite alike, so I don't think making the switch will bother me that much.
The program should be easy to use for her, so it needs a visual calender that can be interacted with, and it should also be easy to see which employee is at work at that date and so on.
Will it be hard for me to build this kind of Calender, that allows the interaction I want?
Any open-sourced projects, or libraries that will make my task easier?
I plan on using NetBeans IDE for this project.

I have searched for totalPay is always 0 and the responses are not related to my problem (that I can tell).This is a class assignment and I have other questions besides why the method is not working.
Here are the instructions: Create class Employee which contains a String variable Employee Number, a String variable Employee Name, an integer Hours Worked, and a double Pay Rate. Create get and set methods for each variable. Provide method "totalPay" which calculates and returns the total pay by multiplying the hours worked by pay rate. Use figure 8.12 as an example of an object with get and set methods.
Unlike other examples of this type question online this one has Employee Number as a String variable. The book is How to Program Early Objects by Deitel 9th edition.We have instructions to do only what she has told us too. At this point it is objects and getter and setter methods. It is only the beginning of week 2.
ON THE LINES WHERE I HAVE QUESTIONS I AM COMMENTING IN ALL CAPS. NOT SHOUTING, JUST TRYING TO MAKE IT EASIER
package test11;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Test11 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
[code]..
Essentially I cannot figure out how to get the method getTotalPay to be called by the Scanner and do the math. I also have this random bracket problem that showed up about an hour ago.
The concept I don't get is that if I omit this.employeeNumber =id; etc. I error all over the place. If I change it to this.employeeeNumber = employee Number Netbeans tells me it is assigning itself to itself, which I know. When I try to use id instead of employeeNumber I get errors all over. If i remove "this" from it the same happens. why in public class employee I have to change to those values (id, name, etc) in the construct and set them again? I don't see where or how they can be used, so why do i have to do it?

I need to know how to automate a web browser (either Chrome, Firefox or Safari) to perform the following task.
Take a word from a .txt file housed on my hard drive,
1) put it into a search engine,
2) load the results,
3) click on/ open the first result,
4) open up an new tab and perform steps 1-3 again but with the next word from the .txt file. 4-5 second pauses are needed in between each step.
Additionally, I would like to automate the browser to close all the open tabs when a full stop is pulled from the .txt file.
I am using a macbook and 10.6.8 OS.

I am trying to make a pyramid from blocks . I know that for example to make a bigger block from small blocks you write something like :
for(int i = 10 ;i <=1 ; i--){
for (int j= 10 ;j <= 1 ; j--) {
< statement to create block where you use both i and j to define the location of each block>
}
}
but i cant seem go grasp how to make a pyramid , so far my best effort is :
int i =10 ;
while (i >=1 ) {
for( ; i>=1 ; i-- ){
< statement to create block > }
}
At the moment visually i don't get a pyramid but it might be because of other issues and not because of the while and then a for inside it approach .
My approach is correct and if now what would be the correct one to create a pyramid from smaller blocks ?

I'm assigned along with two others to make this program for a project.
We need to store data to the program by adding them such as user_id among the 5 criterias that are needed. Lets say I want a new user, I need the program to give me that option and then I would type in the user id and the program would store that data information
As far as I'm aware, boolean, screentokenizer and scanner is involved in the making of this program.

I'm having this where i'm trying to return a JPanel with tempPictures but only if they aren't already filled with "actual" pictures. However this causes problems because your never shore that the if statement will execute. I tried adding an else statement but i cant return null i must return a JPanel;
private JPanel buildTopShelf() {
if(myMediaHandler.mediaList.size() < 6) {
JPanel mediaPanel = new JPanel();
mediaPanel.setOpaque(false);
mediaPanel.setLayout(new GridLayout(1,6,22,0));

My multi threaded application processes and loads records into an ECM repository. For reconcliation purposes , I am trying to build an XML format report with the results of the processing per record, while processing is underway per thread. The method below is called from every thread wvery time its ready to append an element to the DOM with the status.
public void writeReportLine(Element rptLine) {
// Write output to report file
synchronized (XMLReportHandler.class) {
reportOutput.getDocumentElement().appendChild(rptLine);
}
}
After all processing completes, the below method is called only once by every thread to write to the File on the file system:
public void writeToReportFile() {
synchronized (XMLReportHandler.class) {
try{
//write the content into xml file
TransformerFactory transformerFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Transformer transformer = transformerFactory.newTransformer();
DOMSource source = new DOMSource(reportOutput);
[Code] ....
The problem is that when under load, the threads just seem to hang while the transformer.transform(source, result) call keeps getting executed until there is an interrupt of some sort. I was able to examine a section of what was appended and it was status for records that had finished processing very early in the process based on my application logs. Once an interrupt is recieved , it looks like the threads recover.

Basically I need to increase the hours of an employee at the given index. Index is the position of the employee in the array, and amount is how many hours you will be increasing by.
This is what I have so far,
public void increaseHours(int index, double amount){
for(Employee e: employees){
if(e instanceof HourlyEmployee){
HourlyEmployee he = (HourlyEmployee)e
he.increaseHours(amount);
}
}
}
}
I'm not sure how to use the index to do this correctly, all it's doing right now is adding hours to every hourly employee

i'm totally new to Java.I'm making a small text based RPG and this is what i've come up for now.
Java Code:
import java.util.Scanner;
class Main {
public static void main(String args[]){
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
Player playerObject = new Player();
[code]....
My thing is that i want the user to enter 'Caucasian' or another race in the console below and i want it to be saved in a variable or something else in the Player Class that i can later use it in texts or something else. My question is how can i do it?
I tried like 'int Mongoloid = 1; int Caucasian = 2;'
And the same with the others, and after that i tried to use them with the Switch Statement but it did not work.

I'm trying to build a binary tree using two arrays I'm given, one is inorder and the other is postorder and I have to construct the tree based on that. I understand the strategy I need to use- the last element of the postorder array tells me the root node, and wherever the value of that node occurs in the inorder array is where the tree is split. I can then apply this idea recursively to build the tree. For whatever reason though, I keep getting stack overflows.
Here's what I have so far:
public static class TreeNode {
char val;
TreeNode left;
TreeNode right;
TreeNode(char newVal) {
val = newVal;

I have this assignment to build an employee time clock. By using a menu you can enter an employee, enter punch in and out, and report.When I created the punch screen I wrote the in and out records to a file. Because there can be several employees punching in or out the file wrote each occurrence on different lines. Now I am attempting to write the report which you enter an employee Id and loop through the file to find the in and out date and then calculate the time (hours worked). I loaded the file into an Arraylist but now I cannot figure out how to loop through find the In and Out date - calculate the hours worked and then move on to the next day. here is the format of the file - employee id, place holder I or O, date, time, day. and sample
111221111i3/2/145:10 PMSunday
111221111o3/2/145:10 PMSunday

111221111o3/3/142:23 PMMonday
111441111i3/4/141:30 PMTuesday
[code]....
here is my code from the main screen.
public static void displayPunches()
throws FileNotFoundException, IOException, ParseException {
boolean isValid = false;
String choice = "y";
String emp = Validator.getLine(sc, "Enter I -Individual or A -All ");

I'm trying to build a program that would present the user (well...me) with a rather large list of various check boxes (and combo boxes, etc...but for sake of the question I'll limit it to check boxes) and the selections would not only need to be stored in some way so they could be reloaded, but also they would need to have the "data" used to build sentences.
For example, part of the form would have a checkbox list like:
Emotional Issues -
Emotion 1, Emotion 2...Emotion 40
Then, at the end of the form I would be able to save client, load client, or generate report. When doing the generate it would output something like:
"Client's first name reported having emotional disturbance in areas of 'Emotion 1', 'Emotion 4', and 'Emotion 12'."
There, of course, would be probably several hundred check boxes, combo boxes, etc. throughout this program building a rather complex "report" when it's all said and done. So where I am stumped in on the methodology or approach that would be best for getting, storing, retrieving, and outputting this information.

There is more code, but it's repetitive. Now, I keep getting an error. Array of bounds. I believe i get the error because the phone number. The phone number is on the next line..I created a different arraylist for phonenumber, but I dont know how to match it with the correct person, student, employee...etc.

The goal of this software is to provide a web interface which must be able to manage the Quagga routing daemon. For those who don't know Quagga, the only interface it provides the user is its built-in cli. My project must convert web events to commands and vice-versa. how I'm going to maintain quagga's configuration state synchronized with JSF's managed beans. The example below shows the commands one must run on quagga's cli in order to add a BGP neighbor:
neighbor 10.0.0.1 remote-as 65535
neighbor 10.0.0.1 description "Just a Test"
neighbor 10.0.0.1 next-hop-self
neighbor 10.0.0.1 soft-reconfiguration inbound
write memory
In order to represent this piece of information in my project, I was thinking about mapping this to a class:
public class BGPNeighbor {
private String ip_address;
private Integer asn;
private Boolean next_hop_self;
private Boolean inbound_soft_reconfiguration;
}
With this I would parse the information from Quagga's configuration and map this to classes in my software. I think it's a lot easier to do with database-based software, the problem with this project is that it's not completely database oriented. The information must be fetched from the network, parsed, converted to classes and then they would be available to JSF as managed beans. Any alteration to this classes must be converted to quagga cli commands which must be executed through the network again (telnet).

I'm making a program that displays information for "employee" objects of different types. This works with a hierarchy that goes Person→ Employee→ Fulltime/Adjunct, and a driver that tests the inheritance. The Person class is given and only supplies the name, the employee class manages the year hired and the ID, and the types of employee classes manage the salaries.
One object (called staff[2]) is supposed to first be printed with default information and then later updated via set methods. I figured out how to update the name, but I don't know how to update the rest of the information because the employee's name is managed in the Person class and the reset of the information is managed in the less-general classes, and the objects are all in an array of Person.
How do I call the set methods necessary to update more of staff[2]?Output (scroll to see the updating section)
The current year is 2012
Name: Flintstone, Fred
ID Num: BR-1
Year Hired: 2005
Years Of Service: 7
Salary: 65000.12
Fulltime Type Employee

My assignment was to create a simple form that demonstrates the use of the factory and singleton design patterns. "Use the Factory pattern to ensure that each form input consists of a text label and a textfield. Use the Singleton pattern for the submit button."
Here's what I have:
Form.java file
interface Form {
public void getFormField ();
}
Name.java file (I have a similar files just like this for Address.java, City.java, State.java, Zip.java and Phone.java)
import java.util.Scanner;
class Name implements Form

It compiles at the moment but I get a null pointer exception in the main method of the FormFactoryDemo file.
