I have two fields of an entity class which I don't want to be unique but to instead be used as composite fields for a key which must itself be unique. For example I have two fields (name and version) which can be the same for other records but together they must be unique. What is the best way to do that using Hibernate (with annotatio...
Hi,
I'm working with java.
I have a byte array (8 bits in each position of the array) and what I need to do is to put together 2 of the values of the array and get a value.
I'll try to explain myself better; I'm extracting audio data from a audio file. This data is stored in a byte array. Each audio sample has a size of 16 bits. If t...
I'm used to working with the excellent log4net, and I assumed log4j is a direct port or ancestor.
I'm looking for an equivalent to the useful Logger.DebugFormat() family of methods, and I can't find anything like it. Is there anything like that in log4j (or similar packages)?
If not, why not?

I always wondered why there exists no removeParameters() method in Servlet API.
What could be the motive behind this design?
Here is a scenario: I am posed with a challenge in a proprietary MVC framework that I am compelled to use. This framework uses a Controller Servlet that hosts an algorithm in it's post method:
doPost() {
//creat...
The Hibernate JavaDoc states that Session.update(Object o) would raise an exception if there's already a persistent instance of o, right?
If there is a persistent instance with the same identifier, an exception is thrown.
However, the following code doesn't throw anything when I run it. And I think it should!
Email email = new Email("...

I am using Matcher.appendReplacement() and it worked great until my replacement string had a $2 in it:
Note that backslashes ( \ ) and dollar
signs ($) in the replacement string
may cause the results to be different

literal replacement string. Dollar
signs may be treated as references to

Is there a way to determine which classes are loaded from which jars at runtime?
I'm sure we've all been in JAR hell before. I've run across this problem a lot troubleshooting ClassNotFoundExceptions and NoClassDefFoundErrors on projects. I'd like to avoid finding all instances of a class in jars and using process of elimination on the...
How does Hibernate compare to NHibernate?
I've heard the claim that "Hibernate is much worse than NHibernate, even to the point of not using it (and using JDBC over it)". Can anyone support or refute this?
Update - I am not trying to decide between them. Our DAL team decided to use NHibernate for our .Net side, but not use Hibernate on...

I've inherited an app that uses Spring. The original developers are not available. The Spring jar file is just "spring.jar", so there's no version# in the filename to help me. I'd like to download the Spring source corresponding to the jar file. The MANIFEST.MF file has "Spring-Version: 1.2" however that's not precise enough. I've looked...
When writing a JSP file, how can I get the current directory of this file at runtime
(to be able to iterate the directory and list its contents)?
Would some file I/O operations be restricted because of some security issues?
I would prefer a solution without accessing some implementation-specific
server variables / properties.
EDIT:

I am using Apache JCS in our application to cache commonly used data at application start-up. However, if some of the data in cache is not used till its idle time, I want to manually reload that value from database.
So, basically I want to over-ride the JCS events such that my java program is aware of
instants when a key is getting re...
So I've been programming in PHP and Python (and recently Ruby), and I was just wondering: should I just Java-based languages (or the Java implementations of languages) from now on, to take advantage of the immense collection of Java libraries? Would that really benefit me as much as I think it would, or am I crazy?
For example, let's sa...
After using the Django template language, I really miss being able to do things like this:
{% if condition %}

{% else %}

{% endif %}
When I am using JSP, I am stuck doing something like this:

<!-- snip -->
</logic:equal>

Typically we use WebLogic or JBoss to deploy our apps. I understand that when using open source solutions like Spring you can develop your app and run it on a simple servlet container like Jetty. So the question would be why even bother with an app server?
