Bailey's at 9:00 a.m.

I was up until 3:00 a.m. last night as a friend was passing through town and stopped by to say hi. He (and his dad) didn't get to our place until 12:30, so I didn't get to visit long, but it was worth the lack of sleep. I got up at 7:00 and went to work feeling like a zombie - only to find out that there was a Bailey's party at 9:00! That's right - one of the ladies made some home-made Baileys and brought it in for everyone to enjoy. I have to say, it's the first time I've had spiked coffee at work!

We just got home from dinner at a friend's house and I am beat. I do have a couple questions and news items though.

  • Is it possible to configure Java to use a proxy server to connect to the Internet. The only way to connect to the Internet at work is to setup your browser to use an Automatic Configuration URL. This means that Struts can't validate to it's DTDs (unless I change to use a System DTD) and I can't use Maven to download jars.
  • Can Hibernate generate classes and it's mapping files from an existing database?
  • Konstantin Priblouda has published a demo of using Hibernate, XDoclet and JBoss. You will need a current version of XDoclet from CVS to run it.

Hi Matt, beware of the hangover ;-) Using a proxy with Java is possible. NetBeans and jEdit both do it in order to download extensions via internet through a firewall. The NetBeans implementation seems to be better one though. Since both of them are open-source projects, it should be possible to figure out how they do the trick. HTH Fokko

You can set a proxy host/port in the System properties. Either programatically: System.getProperties().put("proxyHost", "your proxy"); System.getProperties().put("proxyPort", "your port"); or as part of your startup: java -DproxyHost=somehost -DproxyPort=someport ... I think you can set these in a System properties file somewhere so you don't need to add them as command line options. Not sure about how/where tho. It doesn't seem to work with an "Automatic Configuration Script" like you can set in Internet Explorer tho.
