Uncompilable source code

Got this at the very end of the java file.

I have solved this one only by removing and reentering new line sign after class definition in that file.
Many other strange errors can be solved this way.

Eclipse Tomcat in more than 45 seconds

Do you have some web application that cannot be started in Eclipse's Tomcat in 45s, and you get that annoying time out message?

• Go to Windows > Preferences in Eclipse
• Search for Server
• Set Server timeout delay at you're own will

Here is the list of values in drop down:

Preference    TimeOut
Shorter       11s
Short         22s
Normal        45s
Long          90s
Longer        180s
Unlimited     unlimited

Debugging log4j itself

Problem: You cannot find out which log4j.properties file is used.

Try running VM with parameter
-Dlog4j.debug

You'll get info about log4j properties in console.

See: http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/manual.html

Window's hosts file

For Vista it is: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

Write in IP adress map it to some symbolic address of your choice. One IP can have many lines - so it can has many different symbolic adresses.

Or you can download HostsXpert from this page:
