ParameterizedTest with a name in Eclipse Testrunner

When you run a JUnit 4 ParameterizedTest with the eclipse testrunner, the graphical representation is rather dumb: for each test you have a node called [0], [1], etc. Is it possible give the tests [0], [1] etc. explicit names? Implementing a toString method for the tests does not seem to help. (This is a follow-up question to JUnit test...

Illegal Date strings in Java

How do I get a DateFormat of some sort to throw an exception if I try to parse an illegal date? If I parse a date like "99.99.9999" with a SimpleDateFormat with the pattern "dd.MM.yyyy", no exception is thrown, but this is clearly not a valid date. ...

Is Java incomplete?

Why do I always feel that Java never worried about growing its own API (the one that comes with it)? I've got several examples.. File upload. Servlet API does not handle it. Easy XML reading Connection pooling HttpClient support Good logging Encoders And so goes on... several lacks that we have to look for third party APIs and...

Pro/Con Continuous Integration Systems

Duplicate of: Continuous Integration Servers Hi, Recently i've looked into several CIS and read a lot of articles about them. I'm kinda impressed by Hudson, because it is so easy to set up. I like to start a discussion about several CIS like CC, Bamboo, Continuum etc. It would be nice if some experienced users could tell me about dif...

In Java Swing how do you get a Win32 window handle (hwnd) reference to a window?

In Java 1.4 you could use ((SunToolkit) Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit()).getNativeWindowHandleFromComponent() but that was removed. It looks like you have to use JNI to do this now. Do you have the JNI code and sample Java code to do this? I need this to call the Win32 GetWindowLong and SetWindowLong API calls, which can be done via the Ja...

Velocity editor plugin for Eclipse?

I've seen Veloedit, which seems to have good syntax highlighting but doesn't allow tab characters in the file being edited (wtf?) and also has no understanding of HTML. With a little bit of googling I've found Veloecipse, which claims to build upon Veloedit and also add HTML support - but doesn't seem to be compatible with Eclipse 3.4. ...

Is it necessary to unregister an MBean from the Platform MBean Server?

I've begun playing with MBeans for exposing some information about an app. Pretty much the totality of HOWTOs / Tutorials / Blog posts / Samples online teach you how to implement an MBean and register it with an MBean Server, but never mention (or only cursorily) unregistering the MBean from the server. I'm concerned about an MBean that...

Where can I find a good stand alone PNGImageEncoder ?

I've used a java screen recorder called Krut, it uses JPEGImageEncoder, the image quality isn't as good as I need, so I'm trying to change it to use a PNGImageEncoder, but where can I find a stand alone version with open source, so I don't have to get into a huge project trying to gather all the necessary support classes it needs to work...

Is there a CheckStyle rule to force if else keywords to be on the same line in an if/else ladder?

Based on this question it appears that the default template for CheckStyle will allow if else ladders to separate the if and else with a line break. Meaning I would like this code to be flagged as a violation: if (true) { System.out.println("20"); } else if (true) { System.out.println("30"); } Is there a Ch...

I'll also add some simple applications, either command-line or GUI, to handle common tasks using the library.

Class.getConstantPool()

If you decompile the java.lang.Class class in java from the rt.jar library you will notice there is a native method declaration: native ConstantPool getConstantPool(); I played a while ago with class decompilation using Sun's .class file specification and I was able to obtain the constant pool record from each .class file. But that wa...
