    Advice on which type of DB to use

    um... how about this. mySQL/oracle etc are PROPER databses. access / filemaker etc are kids toys that shouldnt be used for anything than a high school attendance monitoring system. If access could do it, why do MS make (ok - sell) Foxpro? But then again, why use foxpro when you have mySQL??? -...

    Method name

    i havent looked at it to be honest. if you are trying to record every time a method is invoked, why not invoke the logging api from the class that is being invoked. therefore you always know the name. you could say: if (logging) myLogger(**log something**) obviously this is at a very high...

    Why use an interface?

    i appear to have been misinterpreted although i can understand how i gave this impression. i was trying to get across that the designers of java used interfaces in order to avoid the complexities of multiple inheritance. - dont bother with a quick fix. head in book all day breeds good results

    general data question

    Why use an interface?

    From the great Dick Baldwin (Hero of all those who did not buy a java text) "I will suggest that there is little if anything useful that can be done in Java without understanding and using interfaces." bromberg: have a look at: http://www.developer.com/tech/article.php/999971 (and the...

    String copying

    jfryer you are correct the reason i went into talking about objects, is that you can get away without understanding the underlying architecture for an example this simple, but later you will shoot yourself in the foot. As in my signature - you need to understand what you are doing. i thought...

    What is this database with a *.dat extension?

    it was probably just a program writing to a txt file. i did that for my A levels. look at the source of pay someone to solve it for you if youre lost <<< Why is everyone trying to get a quick fix???? If you bothered to LEARN the theory it would have worked the first time around!!!! Go to uni! >>>

    Advice on which type of DB to use

    um foreign keys. golden rule - the lower down you can handle the error - the better. it seperates your code, so not handling low level errors in UI code. you can just use triggers to handle anyway. Performance hit???? you think your code is going to be more efficient than formally tested...

    Popcorn databases begining to fly out of control?

    i assume you can link ASP to mySQL. the only reason you wouldnt be able to would be MS commercial reasons. you should be able to link to ANY ODBC source. You can install mySQL on any Windows Box. Win 95 even!

    new JRE causes banners.class to cease functioning

    you are probably relying on undocumented behavior in a class you are using. Sun will have seen this as a bug and removed it. Put simply, your program probably should never have worked anyway. Try rewriting it.
