java-box-sdk - Search Plugin - java

With Box, there is a search interface, where you type in your query and it gives you the top matching documents according to their content. I would like to change it with my own search algorithm; however, I do not know how to do it. Ideally, would like it to be a plug-in. Do I have to create my own application? I just want to change the searching module of the web interface, so I feel like building my own app is an overkill.

How to search for Windows dynamic link library that contains a windows api function

I'm using the JNA to interact with the Windows API.
I want to use the LogonUserW function in the WinBase.h header. In order to load it using the JNA's Native.load, I need to know the dynamic link library's name.
For example, CredReadW is in the WinCred.h header, and I found through examples that the function is provided by advapi32.dll, so I was able to load the function with:
// WinCrypt is my own interface. I'm not sure why it's WinCrypt instead of WinCred,
// but that's what I saw in other examples.
Native.load("Advapi32", WinCrypt.class);
Here's the example this is based on.
Do I really need to use DUMPBIN to inspect every dll in Windows to find it? I would've hoped that Microsoft offered a better way to find these.
Agh nvm the page itself has a table showing you the library. Just search for the string "Advapi32"

Can one open another application within a javaFX frame?

I am currently working on a desktop application in which one can generate a responsive website for documentation (java-doc like) by providing nothing more than a simple word document.
I currently have a prototype working in which I select for styles on certain paragraphs to determine its function and how it should be transformed to a correct HTML representation. I also found a way to dynamically link to certain section of the document. Everything is working however I would really like to combine the list of documents to generate, a preview of the to-be generated website and a text editor program in 1.
since this will be relying on word heavily I was wondering if Java FX provides a means to display an application such as word or openoffice within an internal frame. Much like how Java Fx's webview displays websites.
In an ideal situation it would look something like this:
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Alas, not possible in a plausible way.

Navigate to and learn all the web objects on a page using Java (without Selenium)

I work for a start-up, where we have a requirement to automatically navigate to a given web application and find out information about all the objects contained within a page (inclusive of any iframes inside). We are supposed to code this module in Java.
So, I used Selenium WebDriver and was successful. However, due to some reasons, we've been asked not to use Selenium, but rather Core Java to do this.
So here's my question. Let's say I want to open "http://www.google.co.in" on my Firefox browser, and I have to get the attribute values for the Search Textbox, Search button and I'm feeling Lucky button. I have to do this using Java. Where do I start?
I had an idea, which was to actually navigate to a page, read its HTML source and build an xpath query to find each element and get its attributes. But how do I accomplish this navigation using Java (or jQuery as well, if that's possible)?
It may sound as if I'm trying to build an automation tool from the scratch, but I'm just considering all possibilities.
Please help.
If you have loaded the HTML content of the page into a single string variable, you can use standard Java string mechanisms to find contents of the HTML page in your string.

Don't know why you want to do in Java instead of Selenium. Selenium will be the best tool for this job, you should convince your team instead.

How to render plain html in Play 2.0

I'm working on learning JSP and the Play framework, and I understand that it runs on Scala and renders views based on templates, but what if I just want to use plain HTML rather than scala templates?
The situation I'm in is that I'm designing the site to match a visual template, so I'm using Dreamweaver to build the html files. I really like Play framework though, so I'd like to continue using it. So, what are my options here?
I don't get. Play's views are not just nice html files, of course you can (or even should) use your favorite tools for design part, anyway you have to also learn how to include a dynamic parts in it.
Of course you can use DreamWeaver for that task as it has feature for editing source code. But I can ensure you from my own experience, that there are better tools for every-day work with Play's views than DW.
You can also use plain HTML in your /public folder however in this scenario you won't be able to make it dynamic, so it has no sense, as you can create the pages without any framework - just using static files created with DW.
In general words: you need to verify your needs, cause from your question I read: "I like Play framework, anyway I don't want to use it for its job..."
After-comments edit:
You don't have to make views dynamic. If you won't pass any arguments into the view and will put there pure HTML it will be 'relatively cheap' way for displaying static pages as well. Just you need to remeber to leave first line of the file empty. So you don't need to use File index = new File... instead just put your bare HTML code into ie: app/views/staticContact.scala.html and then use an action:
public static Result staticContact(){
return ok(views.html.staticContact.render());
}
On the quite other hand, last time I was wondering if it wasn't better to put HTML code of the static pages into the DB, in such case you could create an editing page, where you could change HTML without redeploying the application. All what you will need it was just fetching HTML from DB and displaying it in one generic view. For better performance you can use included Cache implementation.
GET / controllers.Assets.at(path="/public/html", file="index.html")
This is working for play 2.0.1 for /public/html/index.html file

Web UI for existing Java application

I am trying to build a search engine using java and the lucene API as part of a project. For the last step, we plan to build a web UI (a local host would do) for the same. Are there UI softwares/plugins for eclipse which will allow me to call the functions present in the java classes?
Essentially I would want to have a search box and a search key, pressing which will throw up the search results(which is computed from the java program). javascript cannot call java code I understand. So using that is eliminated?
Any suggestions on what to use will be greatly appreciated. I have pretty poor knowledge in front end design!
Cheers!

If all you have is a simple screen with a entry field and a button and you simply want to return an html table. I would go with a servlet and two jsps. Your servlet can call your search engine and then have the jsp format the data into the table. If you do not know web apis this is probably the easiest entry.
I think, If your using JAVA, that you should look into JSF.
It's a rather easy to maintain and work with library for just the uses you describe.
I recommend these tutorials to get you started: http://www.coreservlets.com/JSF-Tutorial/jsf2/#Tutorial-Intro
There are lots of options to achieve this.
you can create web-ui using jsp.
I have also created same type of project using Lucene, here i have used spring mvc.i have provided all the back-end process as REST api which any web-ui can use.
Please do not look into JSF; it is an overengineered pile for your task.
Sure you can call your java code from javascript, you can make it really simple with something like DWR.
However, for your project I would suggest GWT as then you only deal with Java and it will generate javascript, html and css for you.
For your project you dont really need an "enterprise" level framework like spring or a fullstack JavaEE, you could keep it real oldschool with only JSPs and html/javascript. However thats a bit too flaky for my taste, so go with GWT.
With GWT you basically set it up, define your module, entrance point (look at the hello world), and then you add a layout to your page like something to place the searchbox into and the resultbox to. Then you call your other Java code and classes from there like you normally would.
I would suggest you to use GWT in your application because GWT enables you to call java methods and it will also convert Javascript and css for your Java modules after GWT compile.
GWT reference :- http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/gettingstarted.html
If you're going to use GWT, you could aslo check Vaadin.
Creating a search UI is really simple, and the tutorial show a criteria /result table application taht could be adapted.
