JUnit issue with Eclipse and Maven

In this post I am trying to resolve one issue of JUnit with Eclipse and Maven. Sometimes while using JUnit with Eclipse and Maven we have to face certain issues. And one of them is whenever we try to run the independent test case it will run fine and will not give any type of error. But when we run to try to compile the whole project, the same test will not compile at all. This is an annoying issue if someone does not know about the functionality of how Eclipse works with JUnit and Maven.

Since there is such no exception seen in file, but project compilation fails due to same file it is very frustrated for developer to figure out the issue. I am facing this issue and found a solution by googling around many forums.
Problem: You have created a JUnit test case in the project and it is running fine, but fails to compile the whole project when try to build using Maven.
Solution: Check that the test case you have created exist in the src/test/java folder and not in src/main/java. Very funny isn't it. Actually Maven compiles the files under src/main/java to target/classes and src/test/java to target/test-classes.
So whenever you try to build the project it encounters the JUnit test class but it will not able to compile. So, put file in src/test/java folder and the project will run smoothly :)

Struts 2 Hello World Example

I had seen many new deveopers struggling against struts2 hello world example. So I decided to write a small example.

Getting height and width of image in Java

Yesterday I was working on something that requires manipulation of image for getting its properties. After searching over the internet I found a very intersting class on Java i.e ImageIO and BufferedImage class. These classes are good enough to manipulate images. there are many other claases also. But what I need i got it from these. I found many developers searching over internet for getting properties of image and there is no good small example for that. Thats why I thought why not creating a simple code to manipulate the image and help the developers. Here is the small code that helps to get the height and width of the image. Enjoy it!! import java.awt.image.BufferedImage; import java.io.File; import java.io.IOException; import javax.imageio.ImageIO; public class GetImage { public static void main(String[] args) { try { File f = new File("E:/Vinod/Docs/Pics/krishna_01.jpg"); BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(f); int height = image.getHeight(); in

Struts 2 Ajax drop down Example

Struts 2 has emerged as boon for developers. But the documentation available is very small. So I had decided to give a brief demonstration of the ajax used in struts 2.1.8.1 Libraries used: commons-beanutils-1.7.0.jar commons-fileupload-1.2.jar commons-logging-1.1.jar commons-logging-api-1.1.jar freemarker-2.3.8.jar struts2-core-2.1.8.1.jar struts2-dojo-plugin-2.1.8.1.jar xwork-core-2.1.6.jar In this example when u select from one drop down the other will populate accordingly. You can use it as it is or play with it. Enjoy !! index.jsp <%@ taglib prefix="s" uri="/struts-tags" %> <s:action name="ListingAction" executeResult="true"></s:action> listing.jsp <%@ taglib prefix="s" uri="/struts-tags"%> <%@ taglib prefix="sx" uri="/struts-dojo-tags"%> Listing detail.jsp <%@ taglib prefix="s" uri="/struts-tags"
