<0> lunacy
<1> ah, but didn't you do that in ireland anyway? you did architect some of the statistics systems, as i understood it.
<0> but life is a learning experience
<1> it is
<0> I was statistician then data systems
<1> hm
<0> my work was joint for a good while, but I was only examined under one criteria at a time
<1> sounds like trying to do two jobs at a time, which can cause slowdowns and confusion by not being able to focus on one task/job.
<0> you got it
<1> haha, hi spielmann, bored or something?
<2> surfin =DD
<1> ha ;)
<0> more due to manager expectations than focus



<2> Clackwell, that "zooming" issue is killing me
<2> doing it with affinetransforms is working. but I plot f(x) = x and the curve gets fuzzy :S
<1> calchas: sorry about that. sounds like something i would have considered giving up on.
<1> spielmann: i haven't followed that problem. never done any graphics stuff.
<2> Clackwell, thanks anyway. hmm let's see if somebody here went through the same
<2> I'm coding a plotter that reads the X and Y coordinates of points from an array and plots them nicely in a Canvas. Now I'm trying to implement a "zoom in" function. I've tried writing my own rescaling methods, but it tended to crash. Now with AffineTransform the plot gets fuzzy. I'll post some screenshots
<1> calchas: i recently heard a feature on the radio about people working abroad for a few years and how at the end of it, when returning, expectations can differ a lot. not quite your case. i hope the migration back turns out smooth for you.
<0> I think return will be easy, I haven't become American yet :)
<0> with the family issues I pretty much have given up
<1> spielmann: not as fancy, possibly related though: http://javafaq.mine.nu/lookup?205
<0> I would have left the corp in May, but I'm tied to relo costs for a year
<0> staying and getting back is a better solution
<3> i seriously cannot find win32com.dll please can someone help me
<1> David13: that's unrealistic.
<1> calchas: why leave the company though?
<1> calchas: because of the burnout?
<3> ?
<4> David13 - Well, I found it in < 20 seconds with google
<0> was very burned out, not beig allowed to return to Ireland, brother was still in chemo, uncle getting worse all the time
<1> David13: people just don't have random files that you need on their computers. it is an unrealistic expectation. and it does not clarify the real problem anyway.
<2> Clackwell, hmmm thanks for the link. I was now thinking if I could do everything via the Image cl***...
<0> sooner or later the appropriate reply is a polite up yours, rather I'm writing to inform you I shall be terminating my contract on .... '
<2> this is my problem: http://cesc.zeug.us/plotok.png http://cesc.zeug.us/plotnotok.png
<3> its driving me mad ive looked everywhere on google and cant find it, they all mention it but it cannot be found!
<1> David13: use something that is supported and available?
<1> like rxtx?
<3> heh ive found it
<1> http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=%22index+of%22+win32com.dll&btnG=Search
<5> Hey is there a function within the double object that will allow me to make it have 2 floating points?
<6> uhhhh
<5> Double sorry
<0> hi joe
<0> got to run though :)
<7> looking for a method for determining the OS the JAVA server side code is running on so I can setup different paths for file creation...Devolpment is on a Windows box, Server is a Unix/Linux box
<8> why don't you just use relative paths?
<7> well, I could I was just currious if I could do it this way...
<7> I was mainly hoping to do this to keep my development work in on path instead of having multiple paths for everything...
<7> one
<6> why are you creating files on serverside?
<8> getting the OS name is done in different ways
<8> on different oS'
<7> creating XLS files for download
<6> why? Why not just stream them ot?
<7> because of the parser we're using doesn't stream...
<7> I don't have control on the parser we're using
<6> ewwwwww
<7> basically I create the file and then do a redirect to the file
<6> ...
<6> WHAT?!



<7> yea... I know...
<6> why not just redirect to a servlet that streams out the file you created
<1> hi thim with your rythm stick, joe
<6> or just stream it out after creation
<1> hit, rather
<7> :O
<6> and tell your managers that they're f'in idiots
<8> and if they don't like it then leave :)
<7> :P
<6> yeah, no reason to hang around total incompetence
<7> LOL
<8> i've recently applied my thinking to that theory myself
<8> works out well :)
<7> would make my life easier if I could just create these files in memory... :)
<7> instead of to disk...
<7> :)
<7> it's what I was given to use so I pretty much stuck with it...
<7> well guys, thanks anyways
<9> Hi, how do you implement the cl***ic "are you sure you want to close the program" ?
<9> I know I need an eventlistener, but which...
<7> ah ha....
<7> this ExcelParser we're using does have a stream option...
<7> using JXL
<7> the Cl*** somebody wrote just didn't implement it...
<7> I have it imlemented now...just that I get the binary data spilling into the web browser...would like to stream to a file...
<7> need to do a setContentType maybe...
<7> freakin right. :)
<10> Lorraine_: depends on the program and the way you exit it.
<10> Lorraine_: Basicly a mere yes/no window (if the program is graphical) would do. iirc there are standard JFrame implementations for that.
<10> Ah... No, a JDialog.
<9> yeah I got it
<9> looking for the yes/no thing without the extra "cancel"
<10> no.. I think its "3 chances" for me :P When looking at the API docs I think that what I meant was actually a JOptionPane. And yeah, perhaps without the cancel but I think it won't hurt.
<10> Lorraine_: think about this: many times you have yes/no options and a user might think "fsck, I didn't want this at all" and then a yes/no means reading to which you answer. "cancel" could then simply do the same as no and requires less effort on your user.
<9> I hadn't thought of that
<10> Lorraine_: just a thought ofcourse but its something I experienced a few times with some of mine. They accidently press a wrong key, notice the window as the result of their action, and simply wish to cancel no matter what.
<10> Hi mike2
<9> Yeah that's a good idea
<9> And how do you terminate the program when the user chooses ok?
<10> Lorraine_: Hmm, depends on the program ofcourse. I basicly use System.exit(); but in many cases also simply make this the last part of the program 8)
<9> System.exit(0) ?
<9> yeah
<11> exit does seem a little heavy-handed sometimes? Hi Lion-O how're things?
<10> Lorraine_: I'm not a die hard Java programmer (yet) but many of my programs are run / steered(?) in the main() routine so when that method ends so does the program.
<10> mike2: yo! Life is good for me, thanks. Finally a relaxed evening for a change so I get a chance to play some more with my servlet(/webapplication) and application server and enjoy a good cold beer :) And you ?
<11> Lion-O, still using melanie's laptop and wishing desperately I had my own machine again, quite happily settled into living in the UK now though. Enjoying a nice cold cider at the moment and just seeing how people are doing
<10> mike2: aah, sounds good. One hour behind me I think then (20:46 over there?). And yeah, your own box/keyboard/etc. will always be most comfortable.
<11> well, something other than a PIII 700 running windows would be good ;)
<10> hehehe
<11> Looking at getting one of the E6400 Core duos if I can afford it :) here's hoping
<10> The only thing I find lacking with the EE5 A.S. are manualpages. Its not a big issue since it has plenty of documentation, but still...
<11> yeah, searchable documentation is a godsend
<7> ok, stream is working well for transfering this excel file except that the file name that it gets is the name of the current page (ListDetailPost.do). Is there anyway to change the name that it's saving to...using HttpServletResponse and getoutputStream?
<11> the content disposition header if I remember correctly
<7> ah ha....thanks mike2
<7> yup, that did it. :)
