RE: [OT] RE: development environment

2005-04-26 Thread Josh McDonald
At home:

P4 2.8HT, 1.25Gb, ~200gb in various drives, 1x17 LCD, 1x19 Trinitron @
1280x1024(colour palettes on the Sony), leaning required to watch the
Simpsons, close to beer supply in kitchen (small apartment). Nice view of
the Story Bridge. Lousy Dodo 1/2 meg ADSL :) Big mofo Sony stereo for mp3
goodness, and a tablet for photoshop.

At the office:

Celery (non D) 2.6, 512mb, 40gb, 17 Samsung LCD (12ms, but nice
nonetheless). Enough for work (and quake 3 on Fridays) but nothing to write
home about.

Various servers ranging from gutless old p2s, to the mighty Darwin (assloads
of ram, a couple of xeons, you can hear the fans spool up from the other
side of town)

IntelliJ, MySQL (lousy opensource zealots ;-)), CVS *shudder*

 I'm curious to what everyone's dev environment looks like.  

Dev: Athlon XP2200, 1Gbyte RAM, 80G hardware-mirrored HDDs*, Win2K
server, dual 1280x1024 TFTs.  Netbeans (when I have to), Ant, JUnit,
vim, CVSNT, putty.  Coffee machine next door - an important piece of
most developers' environments.

Test: 8-CPU Xeon 900, 2G RAM, 18G mirrored HDDs, Gentoo Linux, headless.
Ant, JUnit, vi, cvs, ssh.  In a secured machine room.  We're hacking
with a virtual file system and Tomcat internals, and we wanted a machine
where we could do some serious thread and load testing.  This came off
ebay for about $3k.

- Peter

* Yes, it's a workstation.  No, that's not an excuse for a developer to
have the HDD as a single point of failure :-).  These HDDs are
deliberately from different batches and different sources, so that it's
less likely they'll fail at close to the same time.

Defining DBCP resources in web.xml?

2005-04-26 Thread Josh McDonald
The heading says it all - can it be done? If so, how do I go about it? I'd
rather not have a dozen different references in the server.xml if I can
avoid it, tho it's looking like I'll have to :-(

 

Anyway, any pointers much appreciated.

Re: Database write delay?!?!?!?

2002-08-29 Thread Josh McDonald

Using jdbc-odbc-jet (don't bother telling me it wasn't my decision) -
would this be a problem? Does it even support transactions?

-Josh

And can you tell me, doctor, why I still can't get to sleep?
And why the Channel Seven chopper chills me to my feet?
And what's this rash that comes and goes, can you tell me what it means?
God help me, I was only nineteen.

 Um... ... ...

 What database are you using?

 Do you have autocommit() turned on in your jdbc connection?

 Subject: Database write delay?!?!?!?


 Hi,
 After banging my head against it all day, I've discovered that _somewhere_
 between my servlet code and the filesystem, writes to the database are
being
 cached. However, reads are not coming from the cache. I'm getting around
the
 problem at the moment with a simple window.setTimeout in JS instead of
 response.sendRedirect(), but this is inelegant and I'd like to lose it.

 Has anybody else come across this problem? Is it something I'm doing
wrong?
 Please tell me it's something I'm doing wrong :-)

 Baffled,
 -Josh
