Launch Windows Directly Into JAVA Based Password Entry System?
Apr 5, 2014
Is it possible to launch windows, specifically 8.1, directly into a java based program which would serve as the password entry screen? That is to say, instead of using the standard windows screen, could a java based alternative be used?
I have the source code used on jurassicsystems.com. I would absolutely kill to have a tweaked version of this system act as my password entry screen. It is literally something Ive wanted to have done for ages, and this emulation finally means it may be possible.
At our company we run a third-party Java-based GUI application on one of our Linux server machine, displaying the application to our local Windows work stations using the Cygwin X Server.We noticed a few problems with a new version of this application and was able to narrow it down to the following conditions:
1. Java Swing application running on a UNIX host; 2. Java used is 1.6 (problem not noticed when using Java 1.5) 3. Displaying to Cygwin X server (I've heard other windows-based X servers have the same issue, but I don't have access to any others at this time).
If we run the application natively on Windows, I'm told if the application runs on the Linux host and displays natively to that machine's display there are no problems (although I'm not able to verify this myself).The problems are:
1. Any new frame/dialog is opened in the geographic center of the dual displays, rather than in the middle of one or the other; 2. Any attempt to drag the window to a different location on the display seems to work, but as soon as you let go of the drag, the window snaps back to the original location. This only happens the first time you try to move each window. 3. Drop-down controls (JComboBox, for example) just close back up as soon as you click on them. If you click and drag the mouse to attempt to make a selection, no selection can be made.
Are these known problems using 1.6 on UNIX displaying to Windows-based X Servers?
The only real problem is number 3. I expect that if I put more work into the window placement, I should be able to get past number 1. Number 2 is just a minor annoyance.The following is a simple Java Swing application which when run in the correct environment will exhibit the problems.
I've made a login system with a username and a password. The password is visible and I wanna hide it, how do I do that? Here is my code (have used swing);
I have been recently been working on a library to handle loading and saving settings in a Java application using annotations. Here is how the library is used currently:
package main; import dhuk.settings.main.SettingsManager; import dhuk.settings.main.SettingsTarget; public class Main{ public final String keybinds = "keybinds.txt", settings = "settings.txt"; // Constant strings to be used as the file's paths SettingsManager sm = SettingsManager.instance; // Singleton used to manage all of the settings files.

Is it possible to get data directly from request object in service method of servlet than why it is not possible to write directly into response object through service method instead of this we have to take PrintWriter or ServletOutputStream class object....
My homework is asking me to write a program that prompts the user to enter a password and displays "valid password" if the rule is followed or "invalid password"
Sample enter a string for password: wewewx valid password
It's being graded on Design of my GUI Dialog box User friendliness Creativity
My current issues with the current code I have written is simply the password doesn't work unless it starts with 2 digits, the other order it displays as wrong. and I have no idea how to add a GUI.
I wanted to Start Java Programming on Eclipse.. I ran into this problem when trying to run Eclipse, having installed latest Version.. I tried Googling The issue but didnt Found out answers For the same.
Cannot reinstall java on this windows xp. Get an error -1 and install didn't complete. There are no java versions installed and apparently no java control panel either.
how do you get from launching some java code in eclipse to launching a java program from your desktop.Does one somehow wrap the code in C+ to make it a .exe? take for example Mine-Craft.Its build in Java however launches as a .exe.
This is the java code that I wrote for a password:
// java application that asks the user to enter a password import java.util.Scanner; //program uses class scanner public class password{ //main method used to execute java application public static void main(String args[]){ //create scanner to obtain input from command window
[Code] ....
here is the output of the code when I run it :
entered the passwordreason Try againPress any key to continue . . .
The code compiles without errors. The problem is when , I entered the actually password that I declared in my code, it doesn't output "You entered the correct password" but it instead outputs "Try again", which is supposed to be the output if you've entered the incorrect password. What did I do wrong?
I have 2 different apps, one of them is a java desktop app and the other one is a c# web app. which uses java applet in order to e-sign. The problem is desktop java app requires 1.5.0_14 and on the other hand web app. requires 1.7 and higher version of java.
I installed both java 1.5 and 1.7 versions on my PC. In order to run desktop java app., I go to C:Progra~2Javajre1.5.0_14in and run javacpl to disable 1.7 and enable 1.5. Then I make a shortcut to javaws 1.5.0_14 to my desktop and add the jnlp of this java app to the target of javaws shortcut. After those settings, the java desktop app. runs.
Now I need to also run the web app which requires 1.7 java. In order to run this app. properly Java 1.5 should be disabled, 1.7 enabled on the Java Control Panel settings. Problem is when you run this web app. the settings for 1.5.0_14 breaks down, I mean all of the java versions become enabled in javacpl under C:Progra~2Javajre1.5.0_14in directory. If I restart my PC, I need to reset the java versions. Is there a way to make this happen without a pain in the head?
By the way, I tried to use batch files etc. but not succeded.
How to read Password protected Excel file using java. Actually i read normal excel file(without password protection) successfully, using some standard codings with support POI jars. But i am unable to read password protected xls file.
Im running an eclipse application in my machine. I have two queries
1. I would like to know how to check the default heap size that the jvm is using to run the application.Im using a windows machine to run the java application. I tried to check the default heap size by the following way ControlPanel--->Programs--->JavaSetting--> JavaTab -->View Button ---> JavaRuntimeEnvironment settings window ---> Userstab --> Value under RuntimeParameters
But in my system, there is no runtime parameters defined. Is there a command that I can execute via command prompt to check the default heap size in my machine.
2. How to increase the heap size parameter and run the eclipse plugin application from command prompt. For eg: To increase the heap size and execute the jar file we use the below command java -Xms64m -jar MyApp.jar. I would like to know how to set heap parameters and execute my java application which is an exe file. I tried to execute use the below command, but the command prompt doesnot recognise the command
I have a problem with several java applications. When I start them Java wants to connect to the certificate authority, to check if the certificate is still valid and not on a blacklist.
The problem is: my whole internet is behind a password protected proxy. If I open my browser i get a windows with username and password. I enter it and internet in the browser works. But for Java it isn't working, because I see no point, where I can enter the password and username for the proxy. I can enter the proxy ip and port in the java settings, but not the password and username. So I get a error screen from java, telling me, that java could not connect. I can disable the check in the java settings, but I don't wont that.
Is there a way to tell java, that java uses my proxy with my password and username? I already googled this problem and found nothing except tutorials for connecting with proxy in the java code. But these applications are not from me, I can't change the code ...
I've added a small program that reads from a .txt file to the windows 8 startup folder using a .bat file ... The problem I have Is I've used relative paths for text files In the program and It doesn't work unless I change them to absolute paths.
The .bat file Is basically java -cp[absolute path to program directory] ReadAFileApp . Is there something (most likely yes!) I'm missing here ?
