Getting error on files.readAllLines - java

I am working in android. For reading the file content, I am using the method
List<String> lines = Files.readAllLines(wiki_path);
But whem I am using this method I am getting this error:
The method readAllLines(Path) is undefined for the type MediaStore.Files.
Why can the compiler not find the method?
Path wiki_path = Paths.get("C:/tutorial/wiki", "wiki.txt");
try {
List<String> lines = Files.readAllLines(wiki_path);
for (String line : lines) {
if(url.contains(line))
{
other.put(TAG_Title, name);
other.put(TAG_URL, url);
otherList.add(other);
break;
}
}
}

The method you're trying to use is a member of java.nio.file.Files - but that class (and indeed that package) doesn't exist on Android. Even if the Java 7 version existed, you're trying to use a method introduced in Java 8. The Files class you've imported is android.provider.MediaStore.Files which is an entirely different class.
Even if it compiled, the path you're providing looks ever so much like a Windows path, which wouldn't work on an Android device...

javassist - How can I replace a method body without extra startup flags on Java 17?

I'm trying to redefine a method at runtime using javassist, but I'm running into some issues on the last step, because of the weird requirements I have for this:
I can't require the user to add startup flags
My code will necessarily run after the class has already been defined/loaded
My code looks like this:
val cp = ClassPool.getDefault()
val clazz = cp.get("net.minecraft.world.item.ItemStack")
val method = clazz.getDeclaredMethod(
"a",
arrayOf(cp.get("net.minecraft.world.level.block.state.IBlockData"))
)
method.setBody(
"""
{
double destroySpeed = this.c().a(this, $1);
if (this.s()) {
return destroySpeed * this.t().k("DestroySpeedMultiplier");
} else {
return destroySpeed;
}
}
""".trimIndent()
)
clazz.toClass(Items::class.java)
(I'm dealing with obfuscated method references, hence the weird names)
However, calling .toClass() causes an error as there are then two duplicate classes on the class loader - and to my knowledge there's no way to unload a single class.
My next port of call to update the class was to use the attach API and an agent, but that requires a startup flag to be added (on Java 9+, I'm running J17), which I can't do given my requirements. I have the same problem trying to load an agent on startup.
I have tried patching the server's jar file itself by using .toBytecode(), but I didn't manage to write the new class file to the jar - this method sounds promising, so it's absolutely on the table to restart the server after patching the jar.
Is there any way I can get this to work with my requirements? Or is there any alternative I can use to change a method's behavior?

Ecplise Java JNI, java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError loading dll

I'm having a problem with loading printer dll. I have a dll file from the printer manufacturer (JniPrinterStatusLib.dll). I wrote code like printer manufacturer suggested. The code is:
package com.printer.test
public class JniPrinterStatus {
static{
System.loadLibrary("JniPrinterStatusLib");
}
public native int GetStatus(String printer);
}
package com.printer.test
public class TestSample {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int status;
String printer = "MY PRINTER";
JniPrinterStatus jps = new JniPrinterStatus();
System.out.println("PRINTER NAME = " + printer);
status = jps.GetStatus(printer);
if (status == -1) {
System.out.println("status = -1");
}
else if (status == 0) {
System.out.println("status = NORMAL");
}
else if ((status & 0x00000080) != 0) {
System.out.println("status = PRINTER_STATUS_OFFLINE");
}
else if ((status & 0x00400000) != 0) {
System.out.println("status = PRINTER_STATUS_DOOR_OPEN");
}
else if ((status & 0x00000010) != 0) {
System.out.println("status = PRINTER_STATUS_PAPER_OUT");
}
else if ((status & 0x00000800) != 0) {
System.out.println("status = PRINTER_STATUS_OUTPUT_BIN_FULL");
}
else if ((status & 0x00000040) != 0) {
System.out.println("status = PRINTER_STATUS_PAPER_PROBLEM");
}
}
}
I used Eclipse to run the code, i put the dll library in the folder project and the error is
PRINTER NAME = MY PRINTER
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: com.printer.test.JniPrinterStatus.GetStatus(Ljava/lang/String;)I
at com.printer.test.JniPrinterStatus.GetStatus(Native Method)
at com.printer.test.TestSample.main(TestSample.java:10)
If i move the source from the package "com.printer.test" to default package the code works and show:
PRINTER NAME = MY PRINTER
status = -1
I don't know how it's possible. If i compile and run the code from command prompt without package it works.
Where is the problem?
Thank you
From the javadoc for class UnsatisfiedLinkError...
Thrown if the Java Virtual Machine cannot find an appropriate
native-language definition of a method declared native.
That means that function Java_com_printer_test_JniPrinterStatus_GetStatus is not found.
Method loadLibrary in class java.lang.System usually searches the directories listed in the [System] property "java.library.path". For Windows machines, the value of this property is generally the value of the PATH environment variable.
So I suggest printing out the value of that property in your code to see whether it includes the directory containing your DLL. If it doesn't then you need to fix that, either by relocating the DLL or changing the PATH environment variable or launching your java program with the -Djava.library.path=... option. After that you need to check the signature of the native method. Dependency Walker is a tool I use at my work to accomplish this.
EDIT
Having re-read your question, I feel I did not accurately address your question, so let me add...
The default behaviour of Eclipse is to copy resource files, like DLLs, to the output folder. So if you put your DLL in folder src\com\printer\test, it will get copie to folder bin\com\printer\test. My guess is that the current, working directory, i.e. . is in your "java.library.path" which is why it works when your java code is in the default package.
Sorry, actually I wanted to write a comment, but as I'm still low on reputation, I have to try and guess an answer.
There should be no need to recompile the dll - it's just some native code to be invoked.
The java package of the class loading the dll should not make a difference, either.
You have to take care about your system architecture: A 64-bit dll file will fail in a 32-bit JRE and vice versa. Make sure, your JRE architecture matches the dll architecture.
Another thing to take into account is your working directory. Eclipse may use a working directory different from what you used when you ran you program from console.
Last but not least, please have a look at your java.library.path variable.

I covers all the details.
The expected package of the Java classes is hard-coded in the JNI library. In your case, it's the default package.
Let me expand on that. When one implements a native method in a JNI library, one has to create a public C function with a name in the following format:
Java_com_mypackage_MyClass_MyMethod
In other words, the JNI library can't provide methods for the classes in arbitrary packages - only for classes in packages that the JNI library authors had in mind.
In your case, it's the default one. The C function goes Java_JniPrinterStatus_GetStatus. If you call your class MyPrinterStatus, or place it into package com.foobar, the JNI run-time won't be able to associate the C function with the declared Java native method. That's just how JNI was designed.

Convert Kotlin Unit to Java Void

I am using RxBinding for Android widgets. I would like to do the following: Observable<java.lang.Void> obs = RxView.clicks(button);
But I get a compile time error saying that the expected type is kotlin.Unit. RxView.clicks(button) returns an Observable<Unit>but I don't think that Java has a Unit datatype.
How do I get an Observable<Void> in Java?
You can live with Observable<Unit> in Java. kotlin.Unit is a class file available for java programs as soon as kotlin-stdlib-<some version>.jar is in your class path, and it is there already because it is required by RxBinding.
If, however, some other part of your program requires Observable<Void>, it can be obtained with:
Observable<Unit> ou = RxView.clicks(button);
Observable<Void> ov = ou.as(unit->null);

System.loadLibrary() returns exception from static block

I have created a Java app which loads one Windows DLL from the static initialization block. The code snippet is given below:
// MyTestJava class starts
class MyTestJava
{
static
{
System.loadLibrary("MyLib");
}
} // MyTestJava class def ends here
I heard that for kinds of library initializations performed from static block, JVM should search in java.library.path. So I set library path for JVM as follows and put MyLib.dll under c:\Libs folder.
options[1].optionString = "-Djava.library.path=C:\\Libs";
Unfortunately I'm getting a pesky Unsatisfied Link Error in my Java app.
Not clear what options[1].optionString = "-Djava.library.path=C:\\Libs"; means. You should pass java.library.path as a java arg
java -Djava.library.path=C:\Libs MainClass
First call getEnv and check if "java.library.path" actually refers to your library.
Else
You can try giving absolute path of file by using
static
{
System.load("C:\\Libs");
}

how to get ExePath/MainClassPath/MainJarPath of java App at runtime?

The "Path of the running EXE" is well defined for Windows Applications written in C#, C++, VB, etc.
-
Java Applications on Windows are not "EXE-Applications" but a class-file or a jar-file is started rather than an EXE-file.
So for java Applications the term "ExePath" should be translated to "MainClassPath" or to "JarPath" resp.
-
In some cases a programmer needs to know the physical Path of the Application's jar or MainClass.
(e.g. when you develop a large project both in java and in c# with identical classes and identical methods)
-
thanks to other stackoverflow users this statement does the job:
String exePath = URLDecoder.decode(this.getClass().getProtectionDomain().getCodeSource().getLocation().getPath(), "UTF-8")
and now comes my question:
If I put the same code into any helper/utils jar-library then it will return the path of the helperlib.jar, it will NOT return the path of my MainClass/AppJar !
-
So the final getExePath() helper method should look something like:
return(URLDecoder.decode(Thread.currentThread().getStartingThread().getMainClass().getProtectionDomain().getCodeSource().getLocation().getPath(), "UTF-8"));
(if there only were methods like getStartingThread() and getMainClass() in java ...)
-
please, point me to the final solution, how can I implement these steps:
get the starting Thread
get the Main Class of the starting Thread
get the Path of the Main Class
if I get you right, just put the method with a parameter of the desired class into your helperlib-class ...
e.g.:
public static String getExePath(Object main) {
String path = "";
try {
path = URLDecoder.decode(main.getClass().getProtectionDomain().getCodeSource().getLocation().getPath(), "UTF-8");
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return path;
}
then you can call it e.g. from inside your main-jar with the parameter 'this' ...
System.out.println("AppPath:\n" + helperlib.getExePath(this));
... and you got the path of the class specified in you parameter
hope it helps and sorry for my bad english ... ;)
