How Registry Can Look Before Java Install - Keyword
Dec 2, 2014
I am attaching a document which shows the current state of my registry.What I want to know is if I can [safely] delete the JavaSoft folder with all lower subfolders, then re-install jdk1.6/0_31 which, I am told, is the current version being used here by developers.According to others on the development team (not my team), there COULD be something in the registry that is preventing both the installation of java jdk AND its uninstallation.Since I cannot seem to attach any kind of document.

I was having trouble running some Java programs (not my own) in Windows XP, and in the process I uninstalled and installed JRE versions 6, 7, and 8, one at a time, probably in the order 7, 8, 7, 6, 7. The program that had the original problem only worked in V6, but some other programs stopped working. I went back to V7, and those other programs still didn't work. The message was "the registry refers to a nonexistent java runtime environment installation". The only advice I could find with Web searches was to reinstall the JRE. Needless to say, that didn't work.
So I looked at the registry, and I found that there were still references to V8, which had been uninstalled. The first was
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTjarfileshellopencommand - (Default) = "C:Program FilesJavajre1.8.0_31binjavaw.exe" -jar "%1" %*
The folder re1.8.0_31 doesn't exist, so I changed it to jre7. That didn't work.
Then I found
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREJavaSoftJava Runtime Environment - CurrentVersion = 1.8
I changed this to 1.7, and deleted some following entries such as
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREJavaSoftJava Runtime Environment1.8 - JavaHome = C:Program FilesJavajre1.8.0_31
retaining entries such as
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREJavaSoftJava Runtime Environment1.7 - JavaHome = C:Program FilesJavajre7
That worked!
So, there is a bug in the installer(s): if you uninstall V8 and install V7, the 'CurrentVersion' isn't set correctly, with the result that the registry points to a non-existent folder. The V8 uninstallation should delete these entries, or the V7 installation should change them.

I am trying to install Java on my Debain based Linux OS and can`t seen to figure it out. I first typed "chmod +x jdk-8-nb-8-linux-i586.sh", than typed "./ jdk-8-nb-8-linux-i586.sh" to install it. It started to install, but than it gave my this message: (computer name has been changed)
bobsmith@bobsmiht-OptiPlex-GX620:~/Downloads$ ./jdk-8-nb-8-linux-i586.sh
Configuring the installer...
Searching for JVM on the system...
Preparing bundled JVM ...
./jdk-8-nb-8-linux-i586.sh: 1: eval: /tmp/.nbi-5045119.tmp/jre-7u4-linux-i586.bin: not found
Cannot prepare bundled JVM to run the installer.
Most probably the bundled JVM is not compatible with the current platform.
How do I fix this? My Linux computer is not connected to the internet, I don`t know if this is a problem or not.

I used Ubuntu 13.10 on a Chromebook and Java7 and Java8 both worked nicely. Not on Ubuntu14.04, however.
I can try
sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk
javac -version
java -version
… and it tells me 1.7.0_51 IcedTea etc. I haven't found an OpenJDK version of Java8, so I tried the usual technique of unzipping the Oracle download into /usr/java (which I have created and given “campbell” ownership of).
campbell@xxxxx:~$ /usr/java/jdk1.8.0_05/bin/java -version
bash: /usr/java/jdk1.8.0_05/bin/java: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error
campbell@xxxxx:~$ /usr/java/jdk1.7.0_55/bin/java -version
bash: /usr/java/jdk1.7.0_55/bin/java: No such file or directory
Same download in my home directory as I had last week. I repeated the download and got the same error. It is different from the error for Oracle Java7, which I haven't actually got installed at the moment.
I shall probably revert to Ubuntu13.10 for a bit.

We are using Kronos and when our staff trys to run reports -- they get three java prompts.The first one is asking if they would like to update java.The second one is do you want to run this application.The third one is allow access to the following application from this website
We are in a non persistent VDI environment so these prompts come up over and over and over.how to edit the Windows 7 image to disable all three of these prompts.Is there a way to install java from the command prompt with the parameters to disable these prompts from ocurring? if so i will uninstall and re-install with those prompts.

I'm trying to install java_ee_sdk-6u3-jdk7-windows-x64.exe on our new Windows Server 2012 machine but the installer starts and I then get a Setup box appear that says Error: The Java(TM) Virtual Machine has aborted. I've looked in the Event Viewer and there are no messages and I've tried to get the installer to create a log file (by passing the parameter -l <loglocation>) but it doesn't seem to get that far as no log is created.
The very first time I tried to run the JavaEE install on this machine, it installed everything ok but didn't create the windows service as .NET Framework 3.5 was missing. So I uninstalled JavaEE and added in the .NET Framework 3.5 and then my problems began. I have already installed these versions of Java and JavaEE successfully on a previous Windows Server 2012 machine which had the .NET Framework 3.5 on it.
The JRE installed already on the computer is jre-6u45-windows-x64.exe and I am logged in as an administrator. I've tried uninstalling the JRE and reinstalling and also doing a registry clean using CCleaner incase there are any old references to the JRE/JavaEE but it didn't work.

I'm learning Java and came across saving user preferences. As I was learning I also learned about object serialization and File input/output. I've heard that the windows registry can be a problem because it can quickly become a dumping ground for uninstalled programs. So my question is why should I use the Preferences API? and is it really good practice to program to the registry for saving information? I'd also like to be in good standing towards the programs I write so if it is common practice to write to the Registry how exactly would I manage the information that I dump into the Registry?

My program TestBind0 (code below) tries to find/create a registry and bind an object.
Find/create: it first tests if there is already a registry on that port; if not, then it tries to create one.
The program tries to find/create the registry on ports 40654, 50876, 30321, 33445, 1099, in this order, until it succeeds in both creating the registry and binding the object. Why does TestBind0 throw for each attempt
java.rmi.ConnectException: Connection refused to host: 192.168.1.64; nested exception is:
java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect

I'm trying to make my first servlet, however since I have only installed the Java SE, the javac compiler is complaining about missing packages (javax.servlet.http...)
I've realized now that I need javax.servlet jar or class files from Java EE, but after downloading java_ee_sdk-7u1.zip from Oracle here I'm not seeing any .sh or java_ee_sdk-7-jdk7-macosx-x64.sh installer (which I saw mentioned elsewhere). The oracle page only instructs to unzip the downloaded file, and searching for javax.servlet only reveals a few files which I'm not sure what to do with:
javax.servlet-api.jar,
javax.servlet.jsp.jar,
javax.servlet.jsp-api.jar,
javax.servlet.jsp.jstl.jar,
javax.servlet.jsp.jstl-api.jar,
javax.servlet.ServletContainerInitializer,
How do I go about installing the Java EE libraries I need? I am on a mac, and I'd like to do this without IDE, using the command prompt if necessary.

Why this doesn't work while A is a super type of B ?

Why java uses the keyword extends when setting the bound of a type parameter(Generic) to an interface. I think using the keyword implements is more intuitive.
public static <T extends Comparable<T>>
why use extends? and not implements.
int countGreaterThan(T[] anArray, T elem) {
int count = 0;
for (T e : anArray)
if (e.compareTo(elem) > 0)
++count;
return count;
}
I know if I want to set multiple bounds I will use extends keyword, and I will concatenate the bounds using & operator.
Is this a design decision to always use extends keyword to set bounds?

I've come across something that i'm not overall sure about regarding the static keyword in Java.I'm making a vertical scrolling game where the player simply shoots enemies and they shoot back as they fall, dropping items if they die such as power ups and coins. I have an enemy called Bat and this is the bullet creation code in the update method:
if(oldPlayerY + 220 > posY && getBulletDelay > 0.90f){
batBullets.add(new Bullet(posX + 10, posY - 10));
getBulletDelay = 0;
}
The method is creating a new bullet object and it then adds that to the arraylist called batBullets, which is simple enough. I then need to access this arraylist in the main game update class so I can render those bullets on the screen, even if the bat dies. I was always taught that you use the static keyword when you need to access something from the class that doesn't require an object. Because of this, I have the following code.
for(Bullet bullet : Bat.batBullets){
bullet.setY(bullet.getY - 5); // Set the bullet to fall
renderMap.getSpriteBatch().draw(bullet.batBullet(), bullet.getX(), bullet.getY()); // render the bullets
}
This seems perfectly fine to me because I need to access the batBullet arraylist and it doesn't make sense to create a new bat object as I already have random spawning in place for them.

The super keyword when used explicitly in a subclass constructor must be the first statement but what about if i have a this(parameters) statements ? As the this one must also be the first statement... Does this means that i can have only one or the other ? What about when the super constructor is not explicit (aka implicit ) , can i use the this( parameters) in the same constructor ?

I've been trying for a while to get my exception output to print in a particular form to System.err.
What I'm looking for as output is
KeywordException: edu.cofc.csci221.KeywordException: **Keyword Not Found**
I'm getting
Keyword Exception: edu.cofc.csci221.KeywordException
at edu.cofc.csci221.CheckLine.checkForInvalidKeyword(CheckLine.java:101)
at edu.cofc.csci221.ReadLogFile.main(ReadLogFile.java:47)
The code:
line = scan.nextLine();
try { check.checkForInvalidSymbols(line); } catch (SymbolException sEx) { System.err.print("Symbol Exception: "); sEx.printStackTrace(); }
try { check.checkForInvalidKeyword(line); }catch (KeywordException kEx) { System.err.print("Keyword Exception: "); kEx.printStackTrace(); }
if(check.checkFirstKeyword(line) && line.split(" ")[0].equals(keywords[0])) { System.out.println(line); }
[Code] ....
I'm just unsure of where to go/what to do.
