NoSuchMethodError when calling getDeclaredAnnotation() - java

I have a running application where once I clicked on a 'Edit' link of a table, I'm getting an error in the log of NoSuchMethodError and the control stays in the current page, not proceeding to the edit page.
Below piece of code has been hit while getting the error;
Field[] fields = entityObj.getClass().getDeclaredFields();
for(int i=0;i<fields.length;i++){
Field field =fields[i];
field.setAccessible(true);
if(field.getDeclaredAnnotation(EmbeddedId.class)!=null){
return true;
}
}
return false;
In the above code at the line,
if(field.getDeclaredAnnotation(EmbeddedId.class)!=null)
I'm getting the particular error.
Also mentioning the log as below;
Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: java.lang.reflect.Field.getDeclaredAnnotation(Ljava/lang/Class;)Ljava/lang/annotation/Annotation;

at com.sprint.neo.engine.controller.actions.TaskViewEditAction.edit(TaskViewEditAction.java:83)
The control should proceed to the edit jsp page as all the jsp are implemented correctly.
What I'm doubting about the error from the log is that, if any jar file is missing regarding Reflection api.
Please suggest me a solution to overcome this problem. Any valuable advise will be helpful. Thanks a lot.

You are using the method Field.getDeclaredAnnotation(Class). This method was introduced in Java 8. It is not available in Java 7 and earlier. You need to upgrade your JDK.
Field is a subclass of AccessibleObject and inherits the method from that class. See the Javadoc: It says “Since: 1.8” which is the version for Java 8 in the internal numbering scheme.

Why this particular code generates "ambiguous method call" error in Android Studio?

I use iText 5 in Android Studio to create a PDF document but I get an error:
I also tried
p.add((Phrase)c);
but I get same error :-(
How I can get rid of this error?
"ambiguous" error comes up when u already have a file/varibale etc with same name.
for example when you make a project using entity framework , entity framework make class and dbcontext files for u. but if u add a class with same name as entity framework had made for u then this error comes up. check ur project/programe correctly and fully again...
Hope its helpfull !!
and checkout this link for ur answer Android Studio - Ambiguous method call getClass()
thanks for reply - indeed I needed help regarding why 'ambiguous' appears in this context.
But now the problem is solved - this error does not appear anymore - but I don't know exactly why.
I did some Android Studio updates last week may this helped?
Thanks anyway!
In case when we use data binding, some java files are auto-generated
The problem was occured when a getter/setter has the same name with a function.
eg
var newData
fun getNewData()
in this case, in the generated java file, the variable's getter has the same name with the function => getNewData.
So simply you have to change variable name or fuction name

Java exception error during RJDBC::dbConnect: how to silently ignore?

I am trying to connect to a SAS-driven remote database from within R, using RJDBC. The first time I do a dbConnect, I get an error:
Error in .jcall(drv#jdrv, "Ljava/sql/Connection;", "connect", as.character(url)[1],
: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/sas/net/crypto/CryptoException
When I do the dbConnect a second time after the first call, it connects fine, and I get back an object of class JDBCConnection.
I looked in the sas.core.jar file (from the latest 94M2 SAS JDBC drivers), and can see CryptoException listed in there. However, I am also curious why it was trying to throw a CryptoException.
Question 1: How can I silently ignore the error on the first dbConnect call?
Question 2: Why was it trying to throw a CryptoException? What can I do to prevent this? (This may cancel question 1.)
This is the same question as shared on the SAS Support Communities page:
https://communities.sas.com/thread/80620
There you shared the code you are using
https://github.com/wthielen/wrds/blob/7edfbfe89ddc329618be72e591cc0bd50e294ea4/R/wrds.R#L47
In this code, the problem appears to be that you are trying to set the classpath before initializing the JVM. Using .jinit() before the call to .jaddClassPath should correct the issue. In the doc for .jinit and since you are developing a package, you may want to use .jpackage instead of .jinit
https://www.rforge.net/doc/packages/rJava/jpackage.html
I was having the same problems and tried the above solutions with no change.
The solution on my computer was modifying the .Renviron file which holds the classpath to the java drivers. Replacing "JDBC_Drivers" with "WRDS_Drivers" was all that was needed:
CLASSPATH="C:/Users/nicol/Documents/WRDS_Drivers/sas.core.jar;C:/Users/nicol/Documents/WRDS_Drivers/sas.intrnet.javatools.jar"

Variable not reachable without exception

I have a very weird problem, the classic of works on localhost and not in server.
I've tried to find a bigger problem and discovered that this code :
<div class="pageHeader"><h1>Products2 #{products.debug} </h1></div>
When :
#ManagedBean(name="products")
#SessionScoped
public class ProductsBean {
private String debug = "Debug : ";
public ProductsBean() {
debug = "Debug : ";
}
public String getDebug() {
return debug;
}
public void setDebug(String debug) {
this.debug = debug;
}
And the debug string has getters/setters,
Works perfectly in localhost but not on remote. In the remote server it doesn't echo the string at all, and no exception gets thrown and I have no idea how to start looking for the problem. The thing is that this problem gets repeated in other ways, for instance this page has a dataTable which appears empty, though it's not in localhost. when I tried file uploading in an whole different page I got exception of Target Unreachable, identifier resolved to null, which is not the problem in this case, but it seems to be related somehow I guess
Any help? I'm running on Oracle Linux Server with Oracle GlassFish
The problem is here.
Target Unreachable, identifier 'loadSimCards' resolved to null
I believe #loadSimCards resolved to null during processing.
The object is not getting created/prepopulated in your bean.
Check the code and verify if it is indeed getting populated.
You can post your Java code if you are still facing issues.
Also check beans.xml file and declaration in faces-config.xml
Reference - JEE CDI tip: Target Unreachable, identifier resolved to null
The first step in my mind would be to do a Right Click -> View Source in the browser and let us know what it shows. In the view source if the string "#{products.debug} is not getting printed, it means that the server is indeed evaluating the EL Expression, but at the time of rendering it is coming as an empty string.
Can you please provide the actual getters/setters.
Can you put loggers/SOPs in them and let us know whether they are being called and in what sequence.
Replace the pure EL Expression with a data-binding control like h:inputText and see what happens.
< h:inputText value="#{products.debug}" />
Probably unrelated, but do you have a < base /> tag declared in your page in the head section? Base tag href provides the location from which child resources are loaded. I have seen some abnormal behavior in the past while shifting servers, when the main page is loaded from from the remote while the child resources are loaded from the localhost itself on your developer box, because one forgets to change the base tag reference.

Why the "The method getPreferenceOnScreen is depriciated" is shown?

I am developing a simple android app. I have set preferences through a method which is given below-
public void updateSummaries() {
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_SIP_DOMAIN).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_SIP_DOMAIN, DEFAULT_SIP_DOMAIN));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_SIP_PROXY).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_SIP_PROXY, DEFAULT_SIP_PROXY));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_SIP_PROXY_PORT).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_SIP_PROXY_PORT, DEFAULT_SIP_PROXY_PORT));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_STUN_UDP).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_STUN_UDP, DEFAULT_STUN_UDP));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_STUN_UDP_PORT).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_STUN_UDP_PORT, DEFAULT_STUN_UDP_PORT));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_STUN_TCP).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_STUN_TCP, DEFAULT_STUN_TCP));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_STUN_TCP_PORT).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_STUN_TCP_PORT, DEFAULT_STUN_TCP_PORT));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_TURN_UDP).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_TURN_UDP, DEFAULT_TURN_UDP));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_TURN_UDP_PORT).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_TURN_UDP_PORT, DEFAULT_TURN_UDP_PORT));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_TURN_TCP).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_TURN_TCP, DEFAULT_TURN_TCP));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_TURN_TCP_PORT).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_TURN_TCP_PORT, DEFAULT_TURN_TCP_PORT));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_TCP_MODE).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_TCP_MODE, DEFAULT_TCP_MODE));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_AFE_MODE).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_AFE_MODE, DEFAULT_AFE_MODE));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_BWM_MODE).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_BWM_MODE, DEFAULT_BWM_MODE));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_HTTP_PROXY).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_HTTP_PROXY, DEFAULT_HTTP_PROXY));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_HTTP_PROXY_PORT).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_HTTP_PROXY_PORT, DEFAULT_HTTP_PROXY_PORT));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_HTTP_DOMAIN).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_HTTP_DOMAIN, DEFAULT_HTTP_DOMAIN));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_TURN_USERNAME).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_TURN_USERNAME, DEFAULT_TURN_USERNAME));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_TURN_PASSWORD).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_TURN_PASSWORD, DEFAULT_TURN_PASSWORD));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_HTTP_PROXY_USERNAME).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_HTTP_PROXY_USERNAME, DEFAULT_HTTP_PROXY_USERNAME));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_HTTP_PROXY_PASSWORD).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_HTTP_PROXY_PASSWORD, DEFAULT_HTTP_PROXY_PASSWORD));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_TRANSPORT_MODE).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_TRANSPORT_MODE, DEFAULT_TRANSPORT_MODE));
getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(PREF_AUTO_ANSWER).setSummary(settings.getString(PREF_AUTO_ANSWER, DEFAULT_AUTO_ANSWER));
}
But here the warning message is shown and sometimes I don't get any preferences set on the setting page. Can anyone say me that what is the root cause of this problem?
Somebody deprecated that method using the #Deprecated annotation, because they believe it should no longer be used.
You should find where that method is declared and read the documentation under #deprecated if provided, or find whoever manages that method in your organization to find out what alternatives they are suggesting.
Edit: My apologies, didn't realize this is an Android snippet. See android - getPreferenceScreen question made by another user.
They are suggesting that you should use getPreferenceManager() instead.
Like so:
getPreferenceManager().findPreference("keep").setEnabled(true);

Spring, NotReadablePropertyException and Glassfish version

I am working on a web-application that uses Spring MVC.
It has been working fine on Glassfish 3.0.1, but when migrating to Glassfish 3.1, it started acting strange. Some pages are only partially showing, or showing nothing at all, and in the log, a lot of messages of this type:
[#|2012-08-30T11:50:17.582+0200|WARNING|glassfish3.1|javax.enterprise.system.container.web.com.sun.enterprise.web|_ThreadID=69;_ThreadName=Thread-1;|StandardWrapperValve[SpringServlet]: PWC1406: Servlet.service() for servlet SpringServlet threw exception

The error message isn't incorrect, because the property in question does not have a setter-method (gets its value through the constructor). But like I said, this has not been a problem when using Glassfish 3.0.1, only when using it on the new server with Glassfish 3.1.
Does anyone know if there is something in the Glassfish version that might cause this? Or is it some kind of configuration that is missing on the new server?
Some code:
Controller:
#ModelAttribute
public SomethingContainer retriveSomethingContainer(#PathVariable final long id {
return somethingContainerDao.retrieveSomethingContainer(id);
}
#InitBinder("somethingContainer")
public void initBinderForSomething(final WebDataBinder binder) {
binder.setAllowedFields(new String[] {
"something.title",
"something.description",
});
}
SomethingContainer:
#Embedded
private final Something something = new Something();
public Something getSomething() {
return something;
}
//no setter
public String getDescription() {
return something.getDescription();
}
Update:
Restarting Glassfish actually removes the problem - temporarily. I suspect that it might have something to do with the loading of the custom binders, we had some problems with out of memory errors, which I thought had something to do with it, but that has been fixed without fixing this problem.
Update 2:
On the 3.0.1 server, the one of the jvm arguments was -client. On the 3.1-server, it was -server. We changed it to -client, and this made the frequency of the error go down a lot, it was happening every other day with -server, took 2 weeks for it to happen with -client.
Update 3:
Some information about the servers (more can be added if requested..)
Server1 (the working one):
Windows Server 2003
Java jdk 6 build 35
Glassfish 3.0.1 build 22
-xmx 1024m
Server2 (the one with problems):
Windows Server 2008 64-bit
Java jdk 6 build 31
Glassfish 3.1 build 43
-xmx 1088m
-xms 1088m
We are using Spring version 3.1.0.
Update 4:
I recreated the error by renaming a field in a jsp to something that does not exist in the modelattribute.
But, more importantly, I noticed something: The fields where the system can't find the getters are often fields of superclasses of the ones that are referenced in the modelattribute. To continue my example, the SomthingContainer is really like this:
public class SuperSomethingContainer {
[...]
private Something something;
public Something getSomething() {
return something;
}
}
public class SomethingContainer extends SuperSomethingContainer {
[...]
}
The reference in the controller stays as is, so it's referencing a field that is in the superclass of the object in question.
Update 5:
I tried connecting to the production server with a debugger after the error occured. I put a breakpoint on the return statement of a controller-method returning the object with the error, and tried to see if I could access the field with problems at the time. And that I could, so the problem must lie within Spring MVC/the generated jsp-classes.
(Also, the field in error was of the type "someobject.something[0].somethingelse[0]", but when the somethingelse-list was empty, there was no error! To me, this implies that it somehow can't find the get-method of a list(?))
Update 6:
It seems that the problem has to do with the generation of Java-classes from the jsps. We have not used precompile jsps when deploying, so they are compiled when first used. The problem occurs the first time a page is visited, and the jsp compiled. I also noticed that once the problem has occured, jsps that are compiled after will all give errors. I've kept a few of the problem generated java files, and upon the next restart I will compare them to the working ones. Getting closer :)
Update 7:
Compared the compiled jsp java files that resulted in an error with ones that did not, and there was no difference. So that kinda leaves that out.
So, I now know that the Java object leaving the controller is fine (checked with debugger), and the java class generated from the jsp is fine. So it must be something in between, now I need to find out what...
Update 8:
Another round of debugging, and narrowed the problem down some more. It turns out that spring does some caching of the properties belonging to the various classes. In org.springframework.beans.BeanWrapperImpl, method getPropertyValue, there is the following:
private Object getPropertyValue(PropertyTokenHolder tokens) throws BeansException {
String propertyName = tokens.canonicalName;
String actualName = tokens.actualName;
PropertyDescriptor pd = getCachedIntrospectionResults().getPropertyDescriptor(actualName);
if (pd == null || pd.getReadMethod() == null) {
throw new NotReadablePropertyException(getRootClass(), this.nestedPath + propertyName);
}
The problem is that the cachedIntrospectionResults does not contain the property in question, it contains every other property of the class though. Will need to dig some more to try to find out why it is missing, if it's missing from the start or if it gets lost somewhere along the line.
Also, I've noticed that the missing properties are those that do not have setters, only getters. And, it seems to be context aware, as indicated by the stacktrace. So not finding a property when visiting one page does not mean that its not available when visiting another.
Update 9:
Another day, more debugging. Actually found some good stuff. The getCachedIntrospectionResults() call in the previous code block wounded up calling CachedIntrospectionResults#forClass(theClassInQuestion). This returned a CachedIntrospectionResults object, containing far from all of the properties expected (11 of 21). Going into the forClass-method, I found:
static CachedIntrospectionResults forClass(Class beanClass) throws BeansException {
CachedIntrospectionResults results;
Object value = classCache.get(beanClass);
if (value instanceof Reference) {
Reference ref = (Reference) value;
results = (CachedIntrospectionResults) ref.get();
}
else {
results = (CachedIntrospectionResults) value;
}
if (results == null) {
//build the CachedIntrospectionResults, store it in classCache and return it.
It turned out that the CachedIntrospectionResults returned was found by classCache.get(beanClass). So what was stored in the classCache was corrupted/did not contain all that it should. I put a breakpoint on the classCache.get(beanClass)-line, and tried running this through the debugger:
classCache.put(beanClass, null);
When allowing the method to finish, and rebuild the CachedIntrospectionResults, things started working again. So, what is being stored in the classCache is out of sync with what would and should be created if it was allowed to rebuild it. Whether this is due to something going wrong the first time it is built, or if the classCache is corrupted somewhere along the line I do not currently know.
I'm starting to suspect that this has something to do with classloaders, as I've previously experienced problems due to changes in the way the classloader works when updating Glassfish..
There may be more than one possible reason. I am not sure about the actual but I can give you the way to find out the problem
Step 1: on server 2 machine deploy application on Glassfish 3.0.1 build 22 , now if it works fine on the server 2 machine that it means there might be problem with the libraries of Glass fish, following can be reason for this problem
Any library that is missing in the Glassfish 3.1 build 43 that is in Glassfish 3.0.1 build 22. you can solve by copying all libraries from working Glassfish server to new server.
My be the libraries of Glassfish is conflicting with spring version. [Similliar kind of problem I have faced on tomcat and when i replaced my spring libraires from 3.0.1 to 3.0.3 it worked for me] , so replace your spring libraries with latest one.
Step 2: and if the result of step1 is that application is not running on server 2 machin on Glassfish 3.0.1 build 22 there may be following reason
if any libraries that you have pasted on java lib either not included in this server machine or having different versions.
Any folders that are set on classpath or using any environment variables on server 1, either does not exist on server 2 or don't have the jars or having jars with diff versions
I got a colleague of mine investigate the error, and he was able to recreate it in a unit test. This was done by invoking the method that builds CachedIntroSpectionResults for a class, while at the same time stressing the jvm by adding strings to the memory, with very low memory settings. This approach made it fail 20/30000 times.
As to the cause of it, I only got an oral explanation, so I don't have all the details, but it was something like this: Java has its own introspection-results, and these are wrapped by Spring. The problem is that the java-results utilize soft references, which make them prone to garbage collections. So, when Spring was building its wrappers around these soft references at the exact same time that the garbage collector ran, it actually cleared some of the basis of what Spring was using, leading to properties being "lost".
The solution seems to be upgrading from Spring 3.1.0.RELEASE to Spring 3.1.3.RELEASE. Here, there are some changes, and Spring no longer wraps soft references when determining the properties of a class (soft reference are used in rare, special cases, instead of all the time). After upgrading the version of Spring, the error has not been reproducable through the unit test, it remains to see if this is the case through in practice use.
Update: It's been a few weeks, an no sign of the error. So updating Spring version worked :)
I think I've actually found a candidate for the cause of this.
After getting the error on one of the test-servers after a very short duration and little use, we did some additional checks on the cause. It turned out that the test-server had just half the available memory, which turned us into looking at it a bit more thoroughly. It turned out that it hadn't used up all its memory, but when using JConsole to investigate the memory usage of the different part of the new generation space on the heap, it turned out that one of the surivior spaces was packed full. I'm guessing that this made parts of it overflow, leading to the overflowed parts to be GC-ed or unreachable by not being where it was supposed to.
We have yet to verify that this is in fact the problem in the production environment as well, but once the error turns up again we will check, and if it is the case we will change some memory settings to allow more space for survival areas of the new generation heap. (-XX:SurvivorRatio=6 or something like that).
So it seems that larger Spring MVC applications has a need for a large survivor space, specially in newer versions of Glassfish.
Indeed, there had been an issue with the new introduced ExtendedBeanInfo class in Spring 3.1.0, which had been fixed in Spring 3.1.1 - see (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-8347).
