A simple tool used for fast Exponentiation. Very useful if you are creating your own cryptograpgic methods.

Copy a file to a new location, optionally marking the file as a temporary file (to be deleted on application exit).

Note there are issues for temporary files - not all the parent directories that might be created are guaranteed to be deleted - only the immediate parent directory will be deleted on exit if created. Other higher-level directories will not be deleted, even if the file is marked as temporary.

A GroovyClassLoader demonstration. The given domain is a german water flow meter system; I think, you shouldn't be able to understand the domain, but you should be able to understand, how to load a Groovy class in Java via a GroovyClassLoader.

If you only want to compare yyyy-mm-dd you can use the java.sql.Date class, the valueOf method does the trick. It's perfectly safe as the sql Date class is a subclass of the Date class.

Check out the docs here for more detail.

This is a very convenient way to remove all doubles from a List in Java. The only prerequisite is that the elements in the list have proper equals and hashCode methods.

It work by using the constructor of a Set that takes a Collection as an argument.

I poured the snippet in a little program so can run it straight away.

A utility class that gets the MD5 hash of an input stream. Also includes a method for converting byte array to hex-formatted string.

Read a eight bytes in little endian order from the given InputStream and create a long out of them.

What is Dijkstra Algorithm? click on the link above and first understand what the algorithm is all about. in short it calculates the shortest path from A to F or vise versa. This code i can guarantee is the simplest and easiest code to understand. just search on google and try to compare this code and other dijkstra code and you will see what i am talking about. i spent alot of time myself and my instructor to guide me on the rite path.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dijkstra%27s_algorithm(Description)
to see how the algorithm really works go on this website it tells you step by step how to update the cost and which path to choose.
http://renaud.waldura.com/doc/java/dijkstra/
Please give some time to understand the algorithm first and then you can see my code. if you done understand the algorithm it is very useless. i know alot of people need Dijkstra algorithm in java for their HW assignment or Test. i am giving you the solution step by step. anyone who wants to understand please go to the url i have posted above and once you have understand then run the code and for those people who just want to copy so that they can get 90% in their test No Problem Here it is .
First open a notepad and name that file anything like data.txt or datas.txt and make sure the file looks something like this and in this format.
0 3 100 5 100 100 (100 represents infinity)
3 0 6 7 7 100
100 6 0 5 5 3
5 7 5 0 1 100
100 7 5 1 0 2
100 100 3 100 2 0
i name this file as a data.txt file. i have 6 nodes. and A is always the starting node which has the cost of 0 so by looking at the first line i
know that A to A have distance 0, A to B is 3, A to c is Infinity, A to D is 5, A to E is Infinity(means no edge connected with A), A to F is Infinity.
for second line(B to A is 3, and then vise versa) and for the 3rd line it starts for C and etc..
save the txt file by any name and then copy the code which i have posted and then to run type this:
javac routing.java
java routing data.txt
you will get the output. i will say this one more time understand how the algorithm works or ......................

To create a chatprogram in java we need 2 classes one for Client and one for Server from which the client will be able to connect and exchange text messages. to compile the code simply type these commands in command prompt window:-
1)ipconfig(memorize the Ip address)
2)javac client.java
3)javac server.java
4)java server 10.69.23.203 (You need to type your own ip address)
5) After this you need to open another command prompt window(Make sure the server command prompt window is also open). now type:
java client 10.69.23.203
Thats it.
if anyone have any problems please post a comment and i will answer all of your questions or if you are having trouble in compiling.
