Problem  How to convert Enum to List of String in Java 8?  Solution  Using the Java 8 Streams, its map and collect functions we can convert Enum to List of Strings  Code   import java.util.List; import java.util.stream.Collectors; import java.util.stream.Stream; public class EnumToStringList { public enum Alpha { A,B,C,D; }  public static void main(String[] args) { List<String> strings = Stream.of(Alpha.values()).map(                                               Alpha::name).collect( Collectors.toList()); } }

Introduction In this post, we will learn how to print Hibernate Query parameters using log4j. Requirments log4j-api-2.13.1.jar log4j-core-2.13.1.jar Step 1 Place the above two log4j jars inside the lib directory. For web applications, the lib directory is located inside the WEB-INF folder. Step 2 Create a file by the name of  log4j2.xml and place it inside your src folder. Step 3 Place the following XML code inside the  log4j2.xml file <configuration status="WARN"> <appenders> <console name="LogToConsole" target="SYSTEM_OUT"> <patternlayout pattern="%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%t] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%n"> </patternlayout></console> </appenders> <loggers> <logger additivity="false" level="debug" name="org.myapp"> <appenderref ref="LogToConsole"> ...

In the following post, we learned how to install Apache Maven on Windows 10 How to install Apache Maven on Windows? If your development PC is behind a proxy network, you will not be able to add Java dependencies through Maven. Luckily Maven provides us with proxy settings. Add your network proxy to Maven's proxy settings STEP 1:  Navigate to your maven's directory and open conf folder E:\apache-maven-3.6.2\conf STEP 2:  Open settings.xml in your favorite text editor STEP 3: Uncomment the proxy tag inside proxies tag and add the values according to your network's proxy settings. <proxy>       <active>true</active>       <protocol>http</protocol>       <username>proxyuser</username>       <password>proxypass</password>       <host>proxy.host.net</host>       <port>80</port>   ...

Apache Maven is a Java tool that helps in building and managing the Java project. It is based on the concept of Project Object Modle(POM). It helps the Java developers to manage the project's JAR files in a central repository and those JAR files can be shared across the project. Maven project has the following objectives makes the build process easy provides a uniform build system  and many more In this post, we will learn how to install the Apache Maven on Windows (10). STEP 1: Download and install Java Download Java from  https://www.java.com/en/download/ . and install it. STEP 2: Download Apache Maven Download Apache Maven from  https://maven.apache.org/download.cgi  and extract it on your local machine like I have unzipped it to  E:\apache-maven-3.6.2 STEP 3: Set the JAVA_HOME environmental variable Right Click This PC ->  Properties -> Advanced system settings -> Environmental Variables Open Environmental...

Introduction String is the most widely used class in any language. In this post, we will explore String in Java context. This post will help you to understand the String in-depth and to answer String related questions in a Job interview. 1. What is String? String is a final class in Java and not a primitive data type like int, float, etc. It is defined in java.lang package and therefore available by default. 2. How to create objects of String? There are two ways to create String a. String literals String str = "abc"; b. Using new operator String str = new String("abc"); 3. Where is String stored in memory? String literals are stored in the String constant pool. A string is called immutable or constant i.e. once created then it can not be changed. Whenever we create a String using double quotes (String literal), Java looks into the String constant pool if an object with the same value is present, it returns the reference to that object...

Introduction In this post, we will explore different ways to sort Java collections in a certain order. Java platform provides a  Collections framework that represents a group of objects. All the Java classes those implement the Collection interface have by default implemented the sort method i.e. Collections.sort(list/set/Array) Java classes like String, Date, Integer, Double, Float, Long, Integer etc implements the Comparable interface by default. Java provides us with the following two interfaces to compare and sort the custom objects Comparable Interface  public interface Comparable<T> { public int compareTo(T o); } Java 8 also provides the built in Comparator.comparing method that returns an instance of Comparable. Comparator Interface public interface Comparator<T> { int compare(T o1, T o2); } In this post we will use the following student class for practice. public class Student{ public String name; public Integer age; ...

Problem Recently we migrated Hibernate to the latest version i.e. 5.4.4. Multiple depreciation warnings appeared in our code i.e. The type Query<R> is deprecated The method setString(String, String) from the type Query is deprecated The method uniqueResult() from the type Query is deprecated The method setBoolean(String, boolean) from the type Query is deprecated The method setLong(String, long) from the type Query is deprecated Solution Existing Change To import org.hibernate.Query; import org.hibernate. query .Query; query . setLong ( "serviceId" , serviceId ) ; query . setParameter ( "serviceId" , serviceId ); query . setBoolean ( "isDelete" ,Boolean.

Introduction Selection sort is the simplest sorting algorithm in terms of implementation. Let's consider we have a list of elements i.e. {3, 9, 0, 5, 4 } a) Selection sort maintains two sublists, one sorted and initially empty and second unsorted sublist i.e. [ {}, {3, 9 , 0, 5 ,4 }] b) It searches for the minimum element (for ascending sort) OR for a maximum element( for descending sort) in the unsorted list in each step. Step 1 [ {0 }, {9,3,5,4}] Minimum element = 0 , swapped with 3 Step 2 Minimum element = 3 , swapped with 9 [{0,3) , {9,5,4} ] Step 3 Minimum element = 4 , swapped with 9 [{0,3,4} , {5,9}] Step 4 Minimum element = 5 , swapped with itself [{0,3,4,5}, {9}] Step 5 Minimum element = 9 , swapped with itself [{0,3,4,5,9}, {}] Worst Complexity: O(n*n) Best Complexity   : O(n * n) Imperative style implementation using Java 7 public class SelectionSortExample { private static int array[] = {3,9,0,5,4}; public static voi...

Introduction Bubble sort is the simplest sorting algorithm. It has the following steps a) Iterates through the list b) Compares the adjacent elements c) Swap the adjacent elements if they are in not in proper sorting order d) The list is traversed repeatedly unless the list is sorted Worst Complexity : O(n*n) Best Complexity    : O(n) Alternate name      : Sinking Sort Implementation using Simple Loops public class BubbleSortExample { private static int array[] = {0,5,2,6,3,1}; static int temp = 0; public static void main(String[] args) { bubbleSortAscending(); System.out.println("Ascending Sorted List"); for(int value : array) { System.out.print(value + " "); } bubbleSortDescending(); System.out.println("Descending Sorted List"); for(int value : array) { System.out.print(value + " "); } } private static void bubbleSortAscending() { for(int outer=0; outer<array.length; outer++) {...
