Why does the glassfish server only load a bean after it has been restarted?

When the rtu.smallview.xhtml action event is triggered it requests info from the java bean, from the database select and hands it back to the xhtml.
The xhtml was not displaying the data from the database, so I added breakpoints in the java bean to figure out what was going wrong, but when the program loaded it never hit the breakpoint in the bean.
The server output is saying this when the program is loaded:
Info: WELD-000119: Not generating any bean definitions from Beans.RTU.RTU_SmallView_Bean because of underlying class loading error: Type pojo.rtu.RTU_unit not found. If this is unexpected, enable DEBUG logging to see the full error.
So I stopped the server, clean and built the project again, and when it runs for the first time it loads the bean, the information is retrieved and displayed. Though if I clean and build the project again, when it runs the second time it displays the same WELD-000119 error.
I copy and pasted just the code to make the RTU section run to a new project and the server doesn't ever throw this error, and it works every time the bean is requested and every time the server is started.
Edit 1:
When I restart NetBeans and Clean and Build the project after it starts it says this:
Note: C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\NetBeansProjects\OIUSA_1\src\java\Beans\RTU\RTU_SmallView_Bean.java uses unchecked or unsafe operations.

I am thinking it has something to do with the actual server, but I'm not sure where to start looking for this error. If you would like to see the actual code for the beans and what not, let me know and I'll edit the question with all the code. Thanks

Problem has been solved, the file RTU_Unit.java was in a folder called pojo.rtu. I deleted the folder, made it again with a new name pojo.rtus, refactored the file RTU_Unit.java for the new folder and the problem has gone away.

How to create GRPC client directly from protobuf without compiling it into java code

When working with gRPC, we need to generate the gRPC client and server interfaces from our .proto service definition via protocol buffer compiler (protoc) or using Gradle or Maven protoc build plugin.
Flow now: protobuf file -> java code -> gRPC client.
So, is there any way to skip this step?
How to create a generic gRPC client that can call the server directly from the protobuf file without compile into java code?
Or, is there a way to Generated Code at runtime?
Flow expect: protobuf file -> gRPC client.
I want to build a generic gRPC client system with the input are protobuf files along with description of method, package, message request ... without having to compile again for each protobuf.
Thank you very much.

Protobuf systems really need protoc to be run. However, the generated code could be skipped. Instead of passing something like --java_out and --grpc_java_out to protoc you can pass --descriptor_set_out=FILE which will parse the .proto file into a descriptor file. A descriptor file is a proto-encoded FileDescriptorSet. This is the same basic format as used with the reflection service.
Once you have a descriptor, you can load it a FileDescriptor at a time and create a DynamicMessage.
Then for the gRPC piece, you need to create a gRPC MethodDescriptor.
static MethodDescriptor from(
Descriptors.MethodDescriptor methodDesc
) {
return MethodDescriptor.<DynamicMessage, DynamicMessage>newBuilder()
// UNKNOWN is fine, but the "correct" value can be computed from
// methodDesc.toProto().getClientStreaming()/getServerStreaming()
.setType(getMethodTypeFromDesc(methodDesc))
.setFullMethodName(MethodDescriptor.generateFullMethodName(
serviceDesc.getFullName(), methodDesc.getName()))
.setRequestMarshaller(ProtoUtils.marshaller(
DynamicMessage.getDefaultInstance(methodDesc.getInputType())))
.setResponseMarshaller(ProtoUtils.marshaller(
DynamicMessage.getDefaultInstance(methodDesc.getOutputType())))
.build();
static MethodDescriptor.MethodType getMethodTypeFromDesc(
Descriptors.MethodDescriptor methodDesc
) {
if (!methodDesc.isServerStreaming()
&& !methodDesc.isClientStreaming()) {
return MethodDescriptor.MethodType.UNARY;
} else if (methodDesc.isServerStreaming()
&& !methodDesc.isClientStreaming()) {
return MethodDescriptor.MethodType.SERVER_STREAMING;
} else if (!methodDesc.isServerStreaming()) {
return MethodDescriptor.MethodType.CLIENT_STREAMING);
} else {
return MethodDescriptor.MethodType.BIDI_STREAMING);
}
}
At that point you have everything you need and can call Channel.newCall(method, CallOptions.DEFAULT) in gRPC. You're also free to use ClientCalls to use something more similar to the stub APIs.
So dynamic calls are definitely possible, and is used for things like grpcurl. But it also is not easy and so is generally only done when necessary.

I did it in Java, and the step is:
Call reflection service to get FileDescriptorProto list by method name
Get FileDescriptor of method from FileDescriptorProto list by package name, service name
Get MethodDescriptor from ServiceDescriptor which get from the FileDescriptor
Generate a MethodDescriptor<DynamicMessage, DynamicMessage> by MethodDescriptor
Build request DynamicMessage from content like JSON or others
Call method
Parse response content to JSON from DynamicMessage response
You can reference the full sample in project helloworlde/grpc-java-sample#reflection
And proto is:
syntax = "proto3";
package io.github.helloworlde.grpc;
option go_package = "api;grpc_gateway";
option java_package = "io.github.helloworlde.grpc";
option java_multiple_files = true;
option java_outer_classname = "HelloWorldGrpc";
service HelloService{
rpc SayHello(HelloMessage) returns (HelloResponse){
}
}
message HelloMessage {
string message = 2;
}
message HelloResponse {
string message = 1;
}
Start server for this proto by yourself, and the full code in Java just like:

There isn't much to prevent this technically. The two big hurdles are:
having a runtime-callable parser for reading the .proto, and
having a general purpose gRPC client available that takes things like the service method name as literals
Both are possible, but neither is trivial.
For 1, the crude way would be to shell/invoke protoc using the descriptor-set option to generate a schema binary, then deserialize that as a FileDescriptorSet (from descriptor.proto); this model gives you access to how protoc sees the file. Some platforms also have native parsers (essentially reimplementing protoc as a library in that platform), for example protobuf-net.Reflection does this in .NET-land
For 2, here's an implementation of that in C#. The approach should be fairly portable to Java, even if the details vary. You can look at a generated implementation to see how it works in any particular language.
(Sorry that the specific examples are C#/.NET, but that's where I live; the approaches should be portable, even if the specific code: not directly)

technically both are possible.
The codegen is simply generating a handful of classes; mainly protobuf messages, grpc method descriptors and stubs. You can implement it or check in the generated code to bypass the codegen. i am not sure what is the benefit of doing this tbh. Also, it will be very annoying if the proto is changed.
It is also possible to do it dynamically using byte codegen as long as you check-in some interfaces/abstract classes to represent those generated stub/method descriptors and protobuf messages. you have to make sure those non dynamic code is in sync with the proto definition though (most likely runtime check/exception).

java.lang.IllegalAccessError: tried to access method net.sourceforge.tess4j.Tesseract.<init>()V from class Tess4jTest.TestTess

I did a Java OCR project with Tesseract in the Mirth.When I run the jar file from the Mirth,I get this error.When I search it,I found that there is a init() method and also it is a protected void in Tesseract.java.I think that maybe it is the reason for that error.
What should I do?Thank you so much for your helps.

The error you got occurs when you try to create an object with a private constructor. (<init>() is the name of a constructor with no parameters)
Looking at the tess4j source I found a method with the following documentation:
#deprecated As of Release 2.0, use default constructor instead.
Looking at the source before 2.0 reveals the default constructor was private.
This means your problem is most likely that you are compiling against a version newer than 2.0, but your environment is running one older than 2.0.
Either update your environment or downgrade the library you build against to fix it.

I solved the error and have finished the project.I mention step by step
1.You have to use right jar files for tess4j.
2.Add java project all of in the tess4j-3.2.1.zip except tess4j-3.2.1.jar via Build Path.
3.Add tess4j-1.5.jar from this
4.Add tessdata folder,ghost4j-0.5.1.jar,jna-4.1.jar,tess4j.jar and jar file of your java project.

Java running in Oracle - the imported jars

I am trying to get a small java class to load into Oracle 11g so I can run it and call it from PL/SQL. I coded and compiled the class on my local machine in eclipse and it compiles fine. I packaged it up into a jar (with the other jar files it depends on in the jar). They I tried loading my jar into Oracle 11g. Everything loads in, unfortunately when it loads my custom java class, it stays invalid and when I try to compile it within Oracle it says it can't find references to the classes (the ones I had packaged in my jar with my class).
Is there some other sort of setting I need to configure?
Here is what my custom classes code looks like:
import com.flashline.registry.openapi.base.OpenAPIException;

}
catch(RemoteException e)

}
And all the *.jar files for the imports are inside my AssetExtractor.jar
The command I've been using to load the jar into oracle is:
loadjava -v -f -resolve -resolver "((* OER) (* PUBLIC))" -user oer/***** AssetExtractor.jar
Any ideas would be helpful!

So it appears that if I do the following it solves nearly all my problems:
Edit the Oracle users' .profile to SET and EXPORT the CLASSPATH, PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, ORACLE_HOME, JAVA_HOME with the correct paths
SQLPlus as sys as sysdba
EXEC dbms_java.grant_permission( 'OER', 'SYS:java.util.PropertyPermission', 'java.class.path', 'write' );
OS Commandline as oracle user:
loadjava –v –grant PUBLIC <jar> -user oer/****** for all jars
SQLPlus as OER user
DECLARE

v_path VARCHAR2(4000);

v_path := DBMS_JAVA.set_property('java.path', '/opt/oracle/102/jdk/bin');
END;
/
alter java source "AssetExtractor" compile;
show errors
The only outstanding issue is that for some reason it still can't locate/resolve some of the Oracle OER classes (which should all be in the client.rex*.jar, I opened and saw them there. If I can solve this part then I'm good to go.

JAX-WS = When Apache CXF is installed it "steals" default JDK JAX-WS implementation, how to solve?

I have a strange problem.
Using wsimport I generated als JAX-WS Code from a WSDL (in a dedicated eclipse java project). This works fine in JDK6 without any external dependencies (running in Eclipse)
I have second project where I once used Apache CXF. If I copy the Code described in 1.) into this project, suddenly not the JDK executes the JAX-WS stuff (files I generated), but rather Apache CXF.
How can I prevent Apache CXF "running" the JAX-WS stuff. (Problem is, CXF Fails to run the code...). I also completely do not understand how Apache CXF discovers these classes. I did not register them anywere?
Thank you very much!
Markus

Apache CXF (cxf-rt-frontend-jaxws-*.jar to be precise) registers itself as a JAX-WS provider in the JVM. Inside the aforementioned JAR there is a file named: /META-INF/services/javax.xml.ws.spi.Provider with the following contents:
org.apache.cxf.jaxws.spi.ProviderImpl
If you now look at javax.xml.ws.spi.FactoryFinder#find method you will discover that JDK searches the CLASSPATH for the presence of javax.xml.ws.spi.Provider file and falls back to default Sun implementation if not available. So you have two options to force fallback:
either remove cxf-rt-frontend-jaxws-*.jar from CLASSPATH
or override javax.xml.ws.spi.Provider file provided by CXF to point to fallback location
The second option is actually a bit easier. Simply create:
/src/main/resources/META-INF/services/javax.xml.ws.spi.Provider
file (assuming you are using Maven) with the following contents:
org.apache.cxf.jaxws.spi.ProviderImpl
That's it, tested with javax.xml.ws.Endpoint#publish.

For the default implementation put:
com.sun.xml.internal.ws.spi.ProviderImpl
inside /src/main/resources/META-INF/services/javax.xml.ws.spi.Provider

I tried the other and I just couldn't make it work at all, so to set CXF if it was not set to CXF, I just override the delegate inside the service.
try {
loc = this.getClass().getResource(wsdlResource);
QName qName = new QName( wsTargetNamespace, wsName );
service = new YourWS(loc, qName);
Field delegateField = Service.class.getDeclaredField("delegate"); //ALLOW CXF SPECIFIC SERVICE DELEGATE ONLY!
delegateField.setAccessible(true);
ServiceDelegate previousDelegate = (ServiceDelegate) delegateField.get(service);
if (!previousDelegate.getClass().getName().contains("cxf")) {
ServiceDelegate serviceDelegate = ((Provider) Class.forName("org.apache.cxf.jaxws.spi.ProviderImpl").newInstance())
.createServiceDelegate(loc, qName, service.getClass());
log.info("The " + getClass().getSimpleName() + " delegate is changed from " + "[" + previousDelegate + "] to [" +
serviceDelegate +
"]");
delegateField.set(service, serviceDelegate);
}
port = service.getYourWSSoap();

The standard finding mechanisms don't seem to work nicely in OSGi (*).
There are two ways I've gotten to work forcing the service to pick up the CXF implementation of javax.xml.ws.spi.Provider:
the approach of setting delegate by reflection given in EpicPandaForce's answer to this question (https://stackoverflow.com/a/31892305/109079)
calling the lower-level JaxWsProxyFactoryBean; this seems to avoid all calls to the javax.xml.ws.spi.FactoryFinder included with Java which is the root of the problem
Here is an example of the latter, for less intrepid coders who prefer not reflectively changing private fields:
JaxWsProxyFactoryBean factory = new JaxWsProxyFactoryBean();
factory.getClientFactoryBean().getServiceFactory().setWsdlURL(WinRmService.WSDL_LOCATION);
factory.setServiceName(WinRmService.SERVICE);
factory.setEndpointName(WinRmService.WinRmPort);
// factory.setFeatures(...); // if required
Service winrm = factory.create(WinRm.class);
Client client = ClientProxy.getClient(winrm);
A couple of notes:
Passing a URL as above, rather than the simpler factory.setWsdlURL(String) may be needed if the WSDL is a resource on the classpath (avoid unresolvable bundle://... URLs for classpath items)
You may need additional bundles for features (such as addressing)
(*) As for why the finding mechanisms don't work in most OSGi containers, check out this little bit of nasty in Oracle Java's FactoryFinder:
private static final String OSGI_SERVICE_LOADER_CLASS_NAME = "com.sun.org.glassfish.hk2.osgiresourcelocator.ServiceLoader";
private static boolean isOsgi() {
try {
Class.forName(OSGI_SERVICE_LOADER_CLASS_NAME);
return true;
} catch (ClassNotFoundException ignored) {
}
return false;
}
OSGi = Glassfish? Fishy indeed!

I had a similar problem. In my case I had to use org.apache.cxf.jaxws.spi.ProviderImpl for JAX-WS stuff (creating webservice endpoints etc.) and com.sun.xml.internal.ws.spi.ProviderImpl for publishing endpoints on com.sun.net.httpserver.HttpsServer.
I managed to solve this by creating my own provider which extends javax.xml.ws.spi.Provider and using it instead of the default one.
package provider;
import java.net.URL;
import java.util.List;
import javax.xml.namespace.QName;
import javax.xml.transform.Source;
import javax.xml.ws.Endpoint;
import javax.xml.ws.EndpointReference;
import javax.xml.ws.WebServiceFeature;
import javax.xml.ws.spi.Provider;
import javax.xml.ws.spi.ServiceDelegate;
import javax.xml.ws.wsaddressing.W3CEndpointReference;
import org.w3c.dom.Element;
public class MyProvider extends Provider
{
#SuppressWarnings({ "rawtypes", "unchecked" })
#Override
public ServiceDelegate createServiceDelegate(URL wsdlDocumentLocation, QName serviceName, Class serviceClass)
{
try {
return ((Provider) Class.forName("org.apache.cxf.jaxws.spi.ProviderImpl").newInstance()).createServiceDelegate(wsdlDocumentLocation, serviceName, serviceClass.getClass());
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
#Override
public Endpoint createEndpoint(String bindingId, Object implementor)
{
try {
return ((Provider) Class.forName("com.sun.xml.internal.ws.spi.ProviderImpl").newInstance()).createEndpoint(bindingId, implementor);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
#Override
public Endpoint createAndPublishEndpoint(String address, Object implementor)
{
try {
return ((Provider) Class.forName("com.sun.xml.internal.ws.spi.ProviderImpl").newInstance()).createAndPublishEndpoint(address, implementor);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
#Override
public EndpointReference readEndpointReference(Source eprInfoset)
{
try {
return ((Provider) Class.forName("org.apache.cxf.jaxws.spi.ProviderImpl").newInstance()).readEndpointReference(eprInfoset);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
#Override
public <T> T getPort(EndpointReference endpointReference, Class<T> serviceEndpointInterface, WebServiceFeature... features)
{
try {
return ((Provider) Class.forName("org.apache.cxf.jaxws.spi.ProviderImpl").newInstance()).getPort(endpointReference, serviceEndpointInterface, features);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
#Override
public W3CEndpointReference createW3CEndpointReference(String address, QName serviceName, QName portName, List<Element> metadata, String wsdlDocumentLocation, List<Element> referenceParameters)
{
try {
return ((Provider) Class.forName("org.apache.cxf.jaxws.spi.ProviderImpl").newInstance()).createW3CEndpointReference(address, serviceName, portName, metadata, wsdlDocumentLocation,
referenceParameters);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
}
Then simply create:
/src/main/resources/META-INF/services/javax.xml.ws.spi.Provider
file (assuming you are using Maven) with the following contents:
package.MyProvider
