For C++, Java, or Python, what are some good game + free game engines that are easy to pick up? Any type of game engine is okay. I just want to get started somewhere by looking into different game engines and their capabilities. ...
I built a stand-alone Java application that has a bunch of dependencies (Apache Commons libs, etc) as well as a dependency on the Spring framework, which in turn has a bunch of dependencies. I built this in Eclipse, where it runs fine. Now I need to deploy it to production and so I'm trying to figure out the best way to package it with ...
Hi folks! I would like to fetch a SSL page in Java. The problem is, that I have to authenticate against a http proxy. So I want a simple way to fetch this page. I tried the Apache Commons httpclient, but it's too much overhead for my problem. I tried this piece of code, but it does not contain an authentication action: import java.io...
I have a problem in Java where I set up a dynamic proxy with a JMX interface, pass this on to another component which then makes calls to the proxy object. When I do this, the application leaks two threads for each call, threads which never seem to time out and keep building up until the application runs out of memory. The threads appe...
Learning just another language is not much work. However, getting familiar with all the supporting libraries is veeeery expensive and actually you cannot go too far without that. Would you consider a worthy career investment to learn java once you already are an accepted professional of .NET or you would rather invest the same amount of...
In C++ I can't use a method if I declare it after the calling method. Does this order matter in other languages like Java or C#? ...
I currently have a program that prints lines of text to the screen in various manners such as 'System.out.println()' statements and for loops the print all elements in an array to screen. I am now adding a GUI to this program. My problem is that I want to print everything that prints to eclipse's console to a textbox in my GUI instead. ...
Does anyone know of a class in Java that has a list of elements, so that the elements are sortable by any of the elements members? The idea is basically to have some database table-like implementation, where you can just add fields to sort by. To illustrate: SomeTable table = new SomeTable(); table.addField("name", String); table.addFie...
Ok, here's my situation: I have an Array of States, which may contain duplicates. To get rid of the duplicates, I can add them all to a Set. However when I create the Set, it wants the initial capacity and load factor to be defined, but what should they be set to? From googling, I have come up with: String[] allStates = getAllStates(...
My thread runs forever and calls ConcurrentLinkedQueue#poll() after a ConcurrentLinkedQueue#peek(). But under some conditions, the thread seems to hang. I know this is a bit vague but can people confirm for me that the methods poll() or peek() will NEVER block. Thanks. ...
I currently have a program that prints lines of text to the screen in various manners such as 'System.out.println()' statements and for loops the print all elements in an array to screen. I am now adding a GUI to this program in a seperate class. My problem is that I want to print everything that prints to eclipse's console to a textbox...
I recently used a Java Web Start application. I launched it from my web browser using an embedded jnlp link in the page I was viewing. The application was downloaded, launched and worked just fine. It had access to my local file-system and remembered my preferences between restarting it. What I want to know is why are Java Web Start ap...

I'm currently working on a simple game in Java with several different modes. I've extended a main Game class to put the main logic within the other classes. Despite this, the main game class is still pretty hefty. After taking a quick look at my code the majority of it was Getters and Setters (60%) compared to the rest that is truly nee...

I am involved in a project in which public API documentation is a clear deliverable. In order to ensure that the release meets this requirement, I'd like to ensure that the the release target in my Ant build file fails if documentation coverage is too low. As a minimum, each identifier with public or protected access should have approp...
Hi, I would like to run Atlassian Clover in a production environment (I don't have an issue with overhead ). Does anyone have experience with this, or can you direct me how to do it? My goal is to get clover reports based on real users actions. I'm using JBoss + JDK 1.5 ...
Hi, I am writing a small Java app (on Windows, hence the _on_vista appended to my name). I got 3 buttons, all of which will react to a click event, but do different things. Is the following code the accepted way or is there a cleaner way I do not know about? On one half, it works, on the other half, something doesn't seem right... Tha...
