Thread Rules
1. This is not a "do my homework for me" thread. If you have specific questions, ask, but don't post an assignment or homework problem and expect an exact solution.
2. No recruiting for your cockamamie projects (you won't replace facebook with 3 dudes you found on the internet and $20)
3. If you can't articulate why a language is bad, don't start slinging shit about it. Just remember that nothing is worse than making CSS IE6 compatible.
4. Use [code] tags to format code blocks.

Someone who is good with OOP would use an existing parser.


I am using an existing parser. But I need to parse the contents of the JSON and then map them to our database structure creating/updating records as necessary.


Every time I see stuff like this I always just want to post the image from the medium article showing java having the highest paid salaries. >_<

Which parsing library are you using? You parsing into json objects and then doing the data transformations yourself or using something like Gson and going straight to objects? You even in java?

Edit: I think you're in ruby, right?

Design patterns never made much sense to me until I started testing. Once you starting writing code for testability they make a ton of sense. If you are just trying to break things down because you "want to git gud" (yeah I know you're joking), then it's really hard to see where you really need to make your seams.


Yeah. Also, my original post was kind of a sitire (pointed at myself of course) about how you can sometimes go overboard and do simple stuff in most convoluted ways.


Understood , but I know how much everyone likes to make fun of us OOP fans too :D

I use DFAs very extensively in a project of mine. It's an algorithm for calculating how far from winning a hand in riichi mahjong is. The straightforward implementation of that algorithm is recursive with a ridiculous amount of branching out, really slow. Other implementations use huge lookup tables (in the order of gigabytes) or medium sized lookup tables coupled with a small amount of recursion. My implementation basically takes a multi layered lookup table approach and instead of actually using lookup tables, I convert those into highly compressed DFAs. I got it down to a few of megabytes and no recursion at all.

In short: DFAs can be very useful when compressing data of the "words in a language" type.

There are plenty of other resonable applications though.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Working in AI there are about a billion uses for DFAs and NFAs. Not only that, but they are but a few of many graph-based formalisms for decision-making, and if you generalize these to Markov Decision Processes, you open a giant world of state-of-the-art research that is applied in all kinds of current applications from Siri to self-driving cars.

*cough cough* compilers *cough cough*

In general there is Chomsky hierarchy, which you either already learned about or probably are going to learn about, which covers all of the classic compiler phases (and more). Your idea with regex for example was spot on. Regex is short for regular expressions, often used as a keyword for its function in programming languages, which is FSA in action. It is also an own category / set or subset in Chomsky’s hierarchy.
There are 4 sets in Chomsky’s hierarchy (3 if you only count languages / grammars), whereby each set is including the previous set. Regular-expressions (not a language yet, which is why you will read about the 3 models for description of language) -> context-free grammar -> context-sensitive grammar -> recursively enumerable.
Which means regular expressions are part of context-free grammar which is part of context-sensitive grammar…

Each of these sets get covered by an automata theory, and all but the last are usually featured in compiler theory:
Regular expressions - this gets covered by FSA (DFAs and NFAs) as stated, in compiler theory this is used by the lexer (which basically matches pattern, so again: spot on).
Context-free grammar - this gets covered by pushdown Automata and is used in compiler theory when building a parser.
Context-sensitive grammar - this gets covered by linear bounded automata and basically covers a programming languages as a whole and in execution.
Recursively enumerable - this gets covered by Turing machines, but doesn’t have to come up in compiler theory.

Guys, I need help...

Can you think of possible reasons why triggers would stop working in the db (postgres)?

I've checked, they're there. Functions are there. Definitions are in place. They just don't fire.

Checked locally with same schema, triggers are fired. On the server, not at all.

Figure it out? I'm sure you checked all the easy stuff, looks like triggers can stop firing if one returns null, was a new one introduced?

One was updated. Thankfully it wasn't in production yet so we could just drop and recreate the DB (it works fine now) because of lack of time to figure it out properly.

Hi guys, I need a little help here,

I'm learning JavaEE (EJBs at the moment). I'm following this tutorial:https://www.tutorialspoint.com/ejb/ejb_create_application.htm

The tutorial uses JBoss 5.0.1. I used Wildfly 10 instead.

I'm having an issue with the JNDI.properties part:

java.naming.factory.initial=org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory
java.naming.factory.url.pkgs=org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces
java.naming.provider.url=localhost


When I try to run I get this:

For some reason it is not able to find the org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory. I downloaded JFind to find it under wildfly installation but no luck. So I downloaded "jnp-client.jar" which contains org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory. Still, it can't find it. I added the path to the jnp-client.jar to the CLASSPATH, restarted wildfly and still it can't find it.

Any idea why this is happening?

That tutorial looks like it was written for java ee 5 or so and you are trying to use a container that is meant for use with java ee 7. Is there any particular reason you are trying to use that exact tutorial?

Which version of Netbeans / java are you using?

Using Java 1.8 / Netbeans 8.2

Edit: I'm using that tutorial because it is the one I find, and tutorialspoint has a lot of great tutorials for free. Except that most of them are outdated....

Are you learning wildfly for a reason either? I haven't done EE tutorials in a long while, but, usually the java docs themselves are pretty good. If you're using netbeans and trying to learn base EE then sticking with glassfish might be easier too.

I'll try doing your combo real quick with wildfly that tutorial / netbeans and let you know what I find but, if you're using those other containers for no reason other than that's what suggested .. sticking with the reference implementation stack (netbeans / glassfish and their associated) could be quicker.

Edit : Certainly not trying to deter your learning, or avoid your question. It's just there are a lot of quirky things with using different versions of all the of different implementations. Java EE is just a spec, and there are multiple companies that become certified. Trying to swap out parts of the reference implementation (oracle/glassfish .. the stuff that comes with netbeans) with redhat's stuff (jboss/wildfly) is certainly doable, but, requires more tinkering.

I've been doing EEish dev (more spring and other frameworks than pure EE) and have made it to architect / director level and it would still take me some time to make sure that using some of each works correctly.

I'm using wildfly as it is a more modern version of JBoss, the mentioned server in the tutorial. I just did not expect that things would be that off between Java 1.5 and 1.8. Also, as Netbeans is an IDE it should produce the same result, heck even if I replaced it by eclipse should be the same.

Do you have any more modern EJB tutorials? I'd like to be comfortable with basic JavaEE before moving to other frameworks like Spring and MVC.

I'm looking and trying to get that tutorial point thing to work. It's mostly true what you're saying about the IDEs except that netbeans is doing a whole lot of work that you may or may not even be aware of when it starts the application server. It may take a bit cause honestly I'm not all that familiar with remote jndi so I'll let you know in a bit if I can get this thing working and what tutorials I used. It looks like in netbeans they had some samples (under new -> project), I'm not sure if any of those would help.

Spring/MVC is kind of a different world than Java EE. IMO and others can disagree but they are two different approaches to solving the same problem. EE depends heavily on the container providing you with a lot of the tools/configuration where as spring usually configures most things in the application itself.

I personally find the spring route much easier, but, I've also been doing it. But that's really tangental to the point at hand ... alright , trying to get this thing working.

Alright, so I followed the first part of their tutorial almost exactly. Just picked glassfish as my application server. Didn't really detour too much from it. Built it, deployed it.

For the second part, I just did, new -> project, picked Enterprise Application Client.

And then I had to modify their file to this


package com.tutorialspoint.test;

import com.tutorialspoint.stateless.LibrarySessionBeanRemote;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.util.List;
import javax.naming.InitialContext;
import javax.naming.NamingException;


public class EJBTester {
BufferedReader brConsoleReader = null;
InitialContext ctx;
{
try {
ctx = new InitialContext();
} catch (NamingException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
brConsoleReader =
new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
}
public static void main(String[] args) {

EJBTester ejbTester = new EJBTester();

ejbTester.testStatelessEjb();
}
private void showGUI(){
System.out.println("**********************");
System.out.println("Welcome to Book Store");
System.out.println("**********************");
System.out.print("Options \n1. Add Book\n2. Exit \nEnter Choice: ");
}
private void testStatelessEjb(){
try {
int choice = 1;
LibrarySessionBeanRemote libraryBean =
(LibrarySessionBeanRemote)ctx.lookup("com.tutorialspoint.stateless.LibrarySessionBeanRemote");
while (choice != 2) {
String bookName;

It's a bit of a shortcut, but , when I clicked run in the main file , it deployed it to the same application server that the EJB module was running in. Therefore, we didn't need to do a remote InitialContext, we could just construct a new one. I also had to change how I looked up the remote bean, as it didn't store it as the other tutorial did.

I was then able to get their output and add books.

Not sure if I get it right... You made a enterprise application client and deployed to the server. Thus the client called the server from within the server? I'm still learning what is the InitialContext is so not sure what is the different between using here within the code or use it via jndi.properties. Sorry I'm still beginner
