Java Advance

1. A class with a given name can only be loaded once by a given classloader.

 

2. When the JVM is started, three class loaders are used:

    1.Bootstrap class loader - loads the core Java libraries(<JAVA_HOME>/lib directory). This class loader, which is part of the core JVM, is writtern in native code.

    2.Extensions class loader - loads the code in the extensions directories(<JAVA_HOME>/lib/ext or any other directory specified by the java.ext.dirs system property). It's implemented by the sun.misc.Launcher$ExtClassLoader class.

    3.System class loader - loads code found on java.class.path, which maps to the system CLASSPATH variable. This is implemented by the sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader class.

 

2. Thread

Thread.yield(); -- you are suggesting that otehr threads with the same priority might be run.

Thread.sleep(); -- throws InterruptedException

TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.sleep(100); /j2se5 or 6

Thread.currentThread();

thread1.join(); -- the main thread waits thread1 task finish. The call to join() may be aborted by calling interrupt() on the calling thread.

thread1.interrupt(); -- the main thread will go on process since the thread1 has been interruptted.

wait(),notify(),notifyAll() - should define in 'synchronized' method or block, otherwise, IllegalMonitorStateException will throw in runtime.

 

synchronized(x) { 

  x.notifyAll(); 

}

 

3.ArrayList vs. Vector

Collection

©ÀList     ----- sortable

©¦©ÀLinkedList

©¦©ÀArrayList  --- expand 50%, non-thread-safe

©¦©¸Vector  --- expand 100%, thread-safe

©¦¡¡©¸Stack

©¸Set     ------ no-sortable, no-duplicate

Map

©ÀHashtable

©ÀHashMap

©¸WeakHashMap  --- if the key object is not referenced by outside, then the entry will be GCed.

 

4.Reflection:

Class<String> clz = (Class<String>) Class.forName("java.lang.String");

System.out.println("getTypeParameters():");

for(TypeVariable tv :clz.getTypeParameters()) {

    System.out.println(tv);

}

System.out.println("getSuperClass():");

System.out.println(clz.getSuperclass().getCanonicalName());

 

System.out.println("clz.getModifiers():");

System.out.println(Modifier.toString(clz.getModifiers()));

 

 

System.out.println("getInterfaces():");

for(Class c : clz.getInterfaces()) {

    System.out.println(c.getCanonicalName());

}

 

5.Regex:

jpql.replaceFirst("^(?i)SELECT ((?!FROM).)* FROM", "SELECT COUNT(r.id) FROM");

 

6.Keystore:

    1. gen a keystore file:

        keytool -genkey -alias jetty -keyalg RSA -keystore my.keystore

 

7.Java Locale:

append -J-Duser.country=US to any java command.

or -J-Duser.language=en

 

to find all java system properties:

for(Map.Entry<Object, Object> s : System.getProperties().entrySet()) {

    System.out.println(s.getKey() + "=" + s.getValue());

}

 

e.g.: keytool -genkey -alias jetty -keyalg RSA -keystore .keystore -J-Duser.language=en

 

8. compile/run java in shell:

$javac com/asran/HelloWorld.java

$java com.asran.HelloWorld

 

9. join list as string with comma separated:

org.apache.commons.lang.StringUtils.join(list, ",");

 

10. -javaagent:***-agent.jar
