This particular file is used for commands which run when the normal user logs in. Common uses for .bash_profile are to set environment variables such as PATH, JAVA_HOME, to create aliases for shell commands, and to set the default permissions for newly created files. Set JAVA_HOME / PATH for single user Login to your account and open .bash_profile file $ cd $HOME $ vi ~/.bash_profile Set PATH and JAVA_HOME as follows:   PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:/usr/jdk1.6.0_30/bin JAVA_HOME=/usr/jdk1.6.0_30 Note: Don't delete the previous PATH, Just append the jdk path after : like "/usr/jdk1.6.0_30/bin" as above . export PATH export JAVA_...

The Calendar class’ date/time API is a nifty tool for accurately manipulating date and time values without too much stress or custom coding. It provides direct support for time based objects. This article gives a few examples how this API can be used. . The class java.util.Date was the first implementation which was used for manipulating dates. The class java.util.Calendar was added in Java 1.1 and provides simplified access to storing and manipulating dates. It is recommended to use Calendar if possible. In reality you have to convert frequently from Date to Calendar and vice versa, e.g. during database access you often get a java.sql.Date object. The following explains how to use Calendar and how to convert Dates into Calendar. It also offers a set of methods for converting and manipulating temporal information. In addition to retrieving the current date and time, the Calendar class also provides an API for date arithmetic. The API takes care of the numerous minor adjustments t...

I’ve been working with OSGi for quite awhile and have faced a problem "Workbench has not been createt yet" issues. I was getting this error, When i was trying to run OSGI plugin from Eclipse and I guess many of you must have face this problem. So i am writing a little bit about how to resolve this issue so others don’t repeat the same mistakes. From a good article on eclipsezone: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Workbench has not been created yet This usually comes when someone tries to run a Java application against an OSGi bundle with java -classpath .... . It really means that the workbench plug-in hasn't started yet, and so calls to getWorkbench() fail. This is essentially a race condition, and can be solved by either expressing an explicit dependency on that bundle or bumping up that bundle to a higher start level than the workbench. Generally not seen, but if it is, that's what's happening. Now to set the bundle to a higher start level than the work...
