Checked Exceptions Vs Unchecked Exceptions in Java
A checked exception is any subclass of Exception (or Exception itself), excluding class RuntimeException and its subclasses.
Making an exception checked forces client programmers to deal with the possibility that the exception will be thrown. eg, IOException thrown by java.io.FileInputStream's read() method
Unchecked exceptions are RuntimeException and any of its subclasses. Class Error and its subclasses also are unchecked.
With an unchecked exception, however, the compiler doesn't force client programmers either to catch the exception or...

Coding of software components
All software components belong to a particular package VRC. The coding of the software components together with the VRC codes make every software component unique. Since some software components can be maintained by language and by package VRC, for example messages, they also need to be linked to a certain language to code them uniquely. The following software components are linked to a language:
forms
menus
reports
messages
questions
labels

Standard Software Coding in BAAN ERP
Each software component that is developed or customized with BAAN IV Tools must be coded according to the Baan standards. A standard coding system is laid down by Baan for each software component. This chapter describes the coding of all major software components and how they are made uniquely identifiable by means of the language and the package VRC to which they belong.
The coding system combined with the Baan software directory structure provides a consistent means to store and administrate the...
Unix commands used in BAAN ERP
UNIX Commands
Note: UNIX is case sensitive. Be sure to type the commands as they are listed. UNIX considers the capital and lower case versions of the same letter to be totally different. Be careful.
cd Changes the current working directory to the directory you indicate.
To move back to your home directory, type cd.
To move to a directory that is not a subdirectory off the current working directory, you can use a full pathname – one that begins with a slash. For example, to look around in...

32 or 64 bit version of internet explorer ????
The 64-bit versions of Windows 7 and Vista come with both 32- and 64-bit variations of Internet Explorer. But the operating systems default to using the 32-bit brower.
They do this for a good reason: backward compatibility. Plug-ins have to be rewritten to work with the x64 version, and a lot of plugins have yet to be rewritten. More 64-bit plugins are being released all the time, of course, so this problem isn't as severe as it used to be. For instance, you can now download and install 64-bit...
Google add WEBRTC to chrome in browser voice and video chat

Google has built the WebRTC technology into a test version of Chrome to let the browser run voice and video chat applications within the browser interface.Building industry-leading voice and video capabilities into the browser makes it easier for web...

Apple iphone application includes hidden tethering
An iPhone developer has acknowledged that a recent update to one of his apps includes the hidden ability to tether the smartphone to a laptop, circumventing carrier fees for the service.
By tethering a smartphone to a laptop, users can share the phone's cellular connection to the Internet with a notebook. Carriers typically levy additional fees for the service: AT&T, for example, charges customers an extra $20 per month for tethering an iPhone, although as part of the deal it also boosts...

Create and How to use your own Exceptions
Creating Your Own Exception Class
● Steps to follow
– Create a class that extends the RuntimeException or the
Exception class
– Customize the class
● Members and constructors may be added to the class
● Example:
class HateStringExp extends RuntimeException {
/* some code */
}
How To Use Your Own Exceptions

What is difference between throw and throws in Java?
One declares it, and the other one does it
Throw is used to actually throw the exception, whereas throws is declarative for the method. They are not interchangeable.
public void myMethod(int param) throws MyException
{
if (param < 10)
{
throw new MyException("Too low!);
}
//Blah, Blah, Blah...
}
The Throw clause can be used in any part of code where you feel a...
Throwing Exception
The throw Keyword
A program can explicitly throw an exception using the throw statement besides the implicit exception thrown
The general format of the throw statement is as follows:
throw ThrowableInstance
ThrowableInstance must be an object of type Throwable or a subclass of Throwable.
2 ways to obtain Throwable object:
Using a parameter into a catch clause
Creating one with a new operator.
try {
throw new NullPointerException("created");
}catch (NullPointerException e) {
throw e; //rethrow the Exception
}
The...
Handling the Unreachable Code Problem - Exception
The multiple catch blocks can generate unreachable code error i.e. if the first catch block contains the Exception class object then the subsequent catch blocks are never executed. This is known as Unreachable code problem.
Example:
try{
System.out.println(3/0); //here arithmetic exception has come
System.out.println(“Pls. print me.”);
}catch( Exception e){
System.out.println(“Exception 1.”);
}
catch(ArithmeticException e1){ //here unreachable code problem...
The Finally block- Exception
The finally block always executes when the try block exits. This ensures that the finally block is executed even if an unexpected exception occurs. But finally is useful for more than just exception handling — it allows the programmer to avoid having cleanup code accidentally bypassed by a return, continue, or break. Putting cleanup code in a finally block is always a good practice, even when no exceptions are anticipated.
Note: If the JVM exits while the try or catch code is being executed, then the finally block may not execute. Likewise, if...
