Is an Accessor (getWhatever()) considered a method? I have to do a program with "only a standard main method" to read, parse, and print a person's full name.

Is there a way to put coding you'd use for an accessor inside a main method and get the same results

04:12 pm - publius_ovidius - JUnit blocks on Message Dialog

For a project where I'm browsing through database records I've added a message dialog for the user if there are no more records to browse. It looks something like this:

    protected void next()
    {
        if (movies.next()) {
            // set the text fields
        }
        else {
            JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(
                this,
                "There are no more records in the database",
                "Movie Project",
                JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE
            );
        }
        showMessage("Next called");
    }

I'm testing with JUnit and I want to show that calling next() when there are no more records merely fails to update the fields. However, when I make that final next() call, my JUnit tests block, presumably because it's waiting for me to click the "OK" button. Is there someway around this? Is there someway I can get the application to think that the "OK" button has been clicked?

09:07 pm - sevensoft - more eclipse fun

i'm getting this 'warning' from eclipse 3.1m2 (integration build):
Type safety: The method add(Object) belongs to the raw type Vector. References
to generic type Vector should be parameterized

// here is the declaration
Vector paddleMoveEventsCurrent = new Vector(10);

// here is the usage
synchronized(paddleMoveEventsCurrent) {
paddleMoveEventsCurrent.add(move);
}

interesting.
something new.

its this:
Vector paddleMoveEventsCurrent = new Vector(10);

its telling me that hey, that collection should have a generic type associated with it..

nifty..

wonder if it was also telling me of a different way to do it.
