adredz, thanks for the compliment. As for the pop-up, I can't say for sure. I haven't used Ubuntu seriously for more than a year, and I've basically forgotten everything I knew. :(

Yeah, Kvonb deserves a lot of thanks. I've been "on vacation" with a new development job for 6 months or so, and it appears Kvonb is continuing to be as helpful as he was to me when I first got...

I couldn't agree with anything more.

Does anyone think this needs an update? I know the JRE update has changed, but the important steps still seem accurate.

I would install eclipse by extracting it. You can then move it wherever you want, and create menu items as needed. The thread I use for reference is here:...

This thread on installing Java has 20 thousand views - it's the one I use when I install Java(s).

MySQL has sweet online docs. You can't beat them for reference. http://dev.mysql.com/doc/

All previous versions are available at http://java.sun.com -> Java SE -> Previous Releases

You can create or receive (as in an async req) document fragments. Then loop through the nodes. It seems like a project that would require something like that would use a language with a better api...

The backports version usually trails at least an update, if not a full version, behind whatever SUN's current release is. I hate the package managers. The package just wraps SUN's .bin file - which...

The thread you used to adjust your path is somewhat out of date. My signature contains the tutorial that I (and a few thousand other people) use to install Java.

[EDIT] Consider this: let's say...

You're welcome, of course. I'm glad you figured it out.

Cheers!

Stellar. :) Happy to help, of course. Thanks for posting back.

I suggest learning C. It's a fairly small, tight language. In its basic form, it isn't ridiculously complicated. But it's more complicated than others, which will make your investment profitable when...

The fun part is, I know you'll be gone awhile before you get to post back. Because it works, you'll spend at least half the time between posts restarting your machine. :)

Here:


package com;

import java.io.*;

public class ShutDown {

What do you use such a program for? Why use Java to shut down your pc?

Yeah, I doubt you need the ";" termination, and maybe you've double-delineated. When I write inserts or queries from new languages, I usually start with "clean" statements. Try a single line, into a...

Nobody nodes. :)

Will you do me a favor and translate your code in the previous post into a prompt-like sql statement. Write it out without the variables? Are you supposed to have the terminating ';' ?

[EDIT] In...

Probably your CPAN configuration. We've all been through it. ;) As a simple test, you can try using sudo cpan, in case it's a permissions error. But, when that doesn't work, open cpan, type o conf,...

Wow. I had a similar problem using Perl (and the ODBC wrapper) and MySQL. MySQL uses the quote for time field delineation. However, from Perl, using the ODBC wrapper, it uses '#'. It took me days to...

I knew programming was for me when it became a platform for learning things I had detested before but found myself enjoying, like calculus, or hardware schematics.

I do it a little differently.


#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h> /* Includes for good measure : ) */


struct vehicle_struct {
char name[30];
