Spring: No persistence exception translators...

2012-01-24T10:32:00.000-07:00

I have been migrating to JavaConfig for some projects. It is a nice alternative to the XML-based configuration of Spring framework applications.

While configuring an EntityManagerFactory I began receiving the following:

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: No persistence exception translators found in bean factory. Cannot perform exception translation.
 at org.springframework.dao.support.PersistenceExceptionTranslationInterceptor.detectPersistenceExceptionTranslators(PersistenceExceptionTranslationInterceptor.java:142)
 at org.springframework.dao.support.PersistenceExceptionTranslationInterceptor.(PersistenceExceptionTranslationInterceptor.java:79)
 at org.springframework.dao.annotation.PersistenceExceptionTranslationAdvisor.(PersistenceExceptionTranslationAdvisor.java:70)
 at org.springframework.dao.annotation.PersistenceExceptionTranslationPostProcessor.setBeanFactory(PersistenceExceptionTranslationPostProcessor.java:103)
 at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.invokeAwareMethods(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.java:1475)
 at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.initializeBean(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.java:1443)
 at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.doCreateBean(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.java:519)
 ... 36 more

It turns out that I needed to provide a bean of type JpaDialect:

    @Bean JpaDialect someJpaDialect() {
        return new HibernateJpaDialect();
    }

By providing this bean you are providing something called a PersistenceExceptionTranslator. Once added all was well and the exception went away.

Spring: Multiple Transaction Managers

2012-01-23T11:00:00.009-07:00

Multiple Transaction Managers is documented in Spring 3.1.0.

We have an application that uses several different data sources. (Think of a data source as a separate database instance or data representing a separate domain.) We access these data sources with different access mechanisms. In one scenario a data source may be accessed via a DataSource directly. In another scenario a data source may be accessed via a Hibernate Session Factory associated with the data source. And, in yet another scenario the data source might be accessed using a JPA EntityManager.

Each of these access mechanisms provide its own advantages (and disadvantages).

In Spring Framework a transaction manager (PlatformTransactionManager) may be associated with one of these to provide transaction management. When that happens the particular transaction manager used may be a bit unclear.

If your spring configuration uses a <tx:annotation-driven/> XML then your classes/methods annotated using @Transactional will be automatically associated with a transaction manager named "transactionManager" by convention. You can provide an optional attribute to the aforementioned XML to be more specific about your default transaction manager (e.g. <tx:annotation-driven transaction-manager="mySpecialTransactionManager" />).

Picture People + Apple a beautiful picture

2012-01-21T18:39:00.003-07:00

There is this business in town called "Picture People". They are a photography studio. Families go there to have family photos taken, printed and taken home.

This week Apple announced some spectacular new items:

iBooks 2
iBooks Author
iTunes U

Is this good news for a company like "Picture People"? Maybe, if they focus on how it might benefit them.

What if "Picture People" decided to embrace the technology? What if instead of just taking pictures of people, their children, their pets, etc., they decided to provide a more substantial service?

Picture this:

You schedule a consultation with a "Picture People" photo genius (my name, not theirs). When the alotted appointent comes you go into their facility (or perhaps you do some upfront data entry online via their website), you sit down and you provide information about yourself, your family, or some other object of interest. The photo genius aggregates the information, takes some photographs, takes some video, and then really goes to work.

The going to work part entails the authoring of an interactive iBook that is produced on your behalf by "Picture People", but you maintain the rights to its content. "Picture People" sends your book to the iBook bookstore. From there, you and/or others can download, for a fee (or for free), your interactive book.

Perhaps, at the same time, Picture People continues to offer prints of your photographs and maybe an option to order a hard-copy of your book.

This could represent serious revenue for a company like "Picture People".

Get the picture?

<beans>

Activating a profile:

-Dspring.profiles.active=development

The set of profiles for which this element may be
parsed. Multiple profiles can be separated by any
number of spaces, commas, or semi-colons (or
indeed any mixture of the three). If one or more of
the specified profiles are active at time of parsing, the
element will be parsed, and all of its elements
registered, elements followed, etc. If none
of the specified profiles are active at time of parsing,
then the entire element and its contents will be
ignored. Profiles are activated in one of two ways:
Programmatic:
ConfigurableEnvironment#setActiveProfiles(String...)
ConfigurableEnvironment#setDefaultProfiles(String...)
Properties (typically through -D system properties,
environment variables, or servlet context init params):
spring.profiles.active=p1,p2
spring.profiles.default=p1,p2

Multiple entity manager factories with spring-data

2011-11-05T11:14:00.002-07:00

Look HERE

The configuration below shows the usage of multiple EntityManagerFactory(s) in a spring configuration. Notice how an abstraction is used to layout the basic configuration parameters (abstractEntityManagerFactory), then the interesting one(s) may be overridden (see dataSource in entityManagerFactory-2):

Multiple Transaction Managers in Spring

2011-11-05T11:11:00.002-07:00

Look HERE

The document describes how to use more than one transaction manager as well as a technique to simplify by using custom annotations:


@Target({ElementType.METHOD, ElementType.TYPE})
  @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
  @Transactional("order")
  public @interface OrderTx {
  }
  
  @Target({ElementType.METHOD, ElementType.TYPE})
  @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
  @Transactional("account")
  public @interface AccountTx {
  }

and


public class TransactionalService {
  
    @OrderTx
    public void setSomething(String name) { ... }
  
    @AccountTx
    public void doSomething() { ... }
  }

Ubuntu - list installed packages and locations.

2011-11-05T10:35:00.003-07:00

From HERE

List installed packages:


$ dpkg --get-selections

Find relevant locations (directories) where package installed items. For instance, if you have installed the

tomcat6

package:


$ dpkg -L tomcat6

For example, on a machine, listing all installed packages shows the following:
(1469 installed packages)

How to kill rogue Tomcat session on Macosx?

How to kill rogue Tomcat session on Macosx?

If you have prematurely exited an Eclipse session but left a Tomcat instance running you may have trouble when you subsequently launch Tomcat from Eclipse. This is because Tomcat is already listening on port (let's say) 8080.

The following commands help to identify the process number and then kill it.

jkroub$ lsof -i TCP:8080
COMMAND   PID   USER   FD   TYPE             DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
java    63615 jkroub   49u  IPv6 0xffffff802ceea180      0t0  TCP *:http-alt (LISTEN)

eBay not filtering sales to foreign countries?

If your listing said that you don't accept international bids, but an international bidder won anyway, you can decline to ship the item. We recommend contacting the buyer and explaining the situation. If the buyer agrees, the easiest option is to cancel the transaction through our Resolution Center.

To block international buyers from bidding on your items:
Select the shipping locations you want to exclude from your listings. You may be asked to sign in before proceeding.
Set buyer requirements to Block buyers whose primary shipping address is in a location I don't ship to.
Your selections will be saved and used for all new listings. You can view and edit all your preferences in the Site Preferences page in My eBay.

Speaking to customer support. The person, Angela, is very nice.

But not too helpful.

It seems that even though eBay did not filter the sale to only include U.S. buyers the downsides are:

possible negative feedback
have to re-do the auction

---
So after 48 hours - transaction cancellation process begins. You do this by:

going to your "My eBay" link
click sold link
on right side there is a "More actions..." drop down.
select "Resolve a problem"
click the "I sold an item and want to cancel the transaction." radio button
click the "Continue" button

macosx Bluetooth: Not Available

2011-06-10T09:33:00.003-07:00

So I come in this morning to find that my bluetooth keyboard and bluetooth mouse were not responding. I looked up at the little bluetooth icon at the top of the screen - it had what appeared to be a little crack along its centerline. Clicking the bluetooth icon a little popup menu said that the Bluetooth: Not Available.

I found solution HERE.

In a nutshell look in the System Profiler under the Hardware -> USB section. Mine had no bluetooth device. So at first I restarted my macosx, but still same condition existed. I then powered down (shutdown - not restart) and re-powered the machine and the bluetooth was back.

May 13, 2011 Video Clip

From the video:

Blending vision computing with leg locomotion, University of Arizona robotics student Matt Bunting created a slider-like hexapod that caught the attention of tech companies such as Intel and HTL Laboratories, and led to Bunting being named ACE Award Student of the Year by EETimes, the leading electrical engineering industry magazine.

Bunting met with Intel Free Press in San Jose, after receiving his ACE Award to share his vision and challenges the led to the hexapod, which was replicated twice for Intel, and helped him get into theh direct PhD program at U of A, where he's currently collaborating on DARPA's Cheetah robot project.

YouTube could destroy your work...

2011-05-21T08:24:00.001-07:00

Let's say you have been busy making videos of all kinds. Educational, family, goofy, etc. Let's say you have uploaded, hmmm, something like 2500 videos over several years. Along comes a disgruntled artist (let's say for argument's sake Bruce Hornsby) who is unhappy that you have included one of his songs in a video and he reports you to the YouTube folks.

Well, it is possible that your investment of time, energy and money may be at risk. (see threatening notice below)

What are your options? YouTube is trying to protect itself. Artists that make these claims lose a fan of over 20 years. But what about the actual videos that have nothing to do with copyright violation? What options do you have? How can you pull all of your >2000 videos and archive them someplace until they are safe? That will be the subject of future posts.

Thank you to Chris at Guitar Center for a great talk on Garage Band.

Guitar Center - Broadway/Swan
Garage Band
Interfaces (usb or firewire) - get analog to digital
acts as a bridge (prefer firewire)
firewire has more track counts (32)
usb only goes to (8)
still no Thunderbolt (up to 10GB/sec) devices
Does input AND output (to studio monitors/speakers)
USB uses some bandwidth for power
less latency with firewire
microphone(s)
guitar's plug-in
M-Audio
- 4 preamps
Patch bays - way to add bunch of analog gear
every DAW needs source / dest identified
----
DAW
Transport - cd/player interface ui (fast fwd/ rewind)

modern music, made on computer recording first then move to analog (real instruments)
rhythm track then play back
---
electric guitarist - guitar + amp
cature in recording - want sound of his amp,
So they mic his amp
mic (is a transducer) - speaker is a transducer (take one form of energy and convert to another)
type of mic has impact on sound
mic -> preamp (boost signal) -> interface -> computer
mic types (3000 (U87 condenser mic), 2000, 400 - different prices)
jonas / myley cyrus - they fix in the E-Q (fix it later)
alan parsons dvd set on recording

pro-fire 610 (interface to mac)
NAME your audio tracks
signal flow of 5 on computer (vs. dozens in a big studio)
signal flow on console (mic - cable - eq - compression - gates - aux/sends)

Understand the signal flow
if problem, then check your signal flow

Microphone Types:
dynamic, condenser and ribbon
dynamic - solid for low price - diaphragm between magnets - when sound waves hit diaphragm - not as sensitive - great for something REALLY loud
Ribbon - like dynamic but uses a ribbon - don't require power from pre-amp, more sensitive and fragile.
Condenser
- requires a charge on interface, take phantom power (?)
- make sure your interface has "PHANTOM POWER", otherwise you'd need a separate box for just phantom power
on m-audio 48v phantom power switch
- more sensitive
- better suited for acoustic instruments / vocals
- toms ok

? mic a tin-can
-
tube microphone - used to record with mic upside down since the tube had heat that could damage the mic
- today they record with mic upside down
