Valve and Filter:
"Valve" is Tomcat
specific notion, and they get applied at a higher level than anything in a specific webapp. Also, they work only in Tomcat.
"Filter" is a Servlet Specification notion and should work in any compliant servlet container. They get applied at a lower level than all of Tomcat's
Valves.
However, consider also the division between your application and the application
server. Think whether the feature you're planning is part of your application, or is it rather a generic feature of the application server, which could have uses in other applications as well. This would be the correct criteria to decide between Valve and Filter.
Order for filter: The order in which they are
defined matters. The container will execute the filters in the order
in which they are defined.
Use one single table "blank_fields" for both A and B. "blank_fields" has fields: 'ref_id', 'blank_field', 'type'. 'type' is used to identify which entity the record belongs to. Use 'type' + 'ref_id' to specify the collection of elements for one entity.
@Entity
@Table(name = "table_a")
public class A {
private Set<BlankField> blankFields = new HashSet<BlankField>();
@CollectionOfElements
@Fetch(FetchMode.SUBSELECT)
@Enumerated(EnumType.ORDINAL)
@JoinTable(name = "blank_fields", joinColumns = { @JoinColumn(name = "ref_id") })
@Cascade(value = org.hibernate.annotations.CascadeType.DELETE_ORPHAN)
@Column(name = "blank_field", nullable = false)
@SQLInsert(sql = "INSERT INTO blank_fields(ref_id, blank_field, type) VALUES(?,?,0)")
@Where(clause = "type=0")
public Set<BlankField> getBlankFields() { // BlankField is an enum
return blankFields;
}
@SuppressWarnings("unused")
private void setBlankFields(Set<BlankField> blankFields) {
this.blankFields = blankFields;
}
} // End B
@Entity
@Table(name = "table_b")
public class B {
private Set<BlankField> blankFields = new HashSet<BlankField>();
@CollectionOfElements
@Fetch(FetchMode.SUBSELECT)
@Enumerated(EnumType.ORDINAL)
@JoinTable(name = "blank_fields", joinColumns = { @JoinColumn(name = "ref_id") })
@Cascade(value = org.hibernate.annotations.CascadeType.DELETE_ORPHAN)
@Column(name = "blank_field", nullable = false)
@SQLInsert(sql = "INSERT INTO blank_fields(ref_id, blank_field, type) VALUES(?,?,1)") // used for insert
@Where(clause = "type=1") // used for query, if not @CollectionOfElements, such as @OneToMany, use @WhereJoinTable instead
public Set<BlankField> getBlankFields() {
return blankFields;
}
@SuppressWarnings("unused")
private void setBlankFields(Set<BlankField> blankFields) {
this.blankFields = blankFields;
}
}
当然还有其他的方式来实现上面的需求，上面采用的单表来记录不同实体的associations（这儿是CollectionOfElements，并且返回的是Set<Enum>，不是Set<Embeddable>)，然后用'type'来区分不同的实体，这样做的好处是：数据库冗余少，易于扩展，对于新的实体，只需加一个type值，而不需更改数据库表结构。另外一种采用单表的方式是为每个实体增加新的字段，如"blank_fields": 'a_id', 'b_id', 'blank_field', a_id reference table_a (id), b_id reference table_b (id). 这样在映射的时候更简单，
对于A，映射为
@JoinTable(name = "blank_fields", joinColumns = { @JoinColumn(name = "a_id") })
对于B，映射为
@JoinTable(name = "blank_fields", joinColumns = { @JoinColumn(name = "b_id") })
这样作的缺点是：带来了数据库冗余，对于blank_fields来讲，任一条记录，a_id和b_id中只有一个不为null。当多个实体共用这个表时，用上面的方法更合理，如果共用实体不多时，这种方法更方便。
The case to use One Hibernate Session Multiple Transactions:
each transaction would NOT affect others.
i.e., open multiple transactions on the same session, even though one transaction rolls back, other transactions can be committed. If one action fails, others should fail too, then we should use one transaction for all actions.
Note:
A rollback with a single Session will lead to that Session being cleared (through "Session.clear()").
So do lazy collections still work if the session is cleared? =>Not of any objects that you loaded up until the rollback. Only for new objects loaded afterwards.
We should load necessary objects to session for each transactional action to avoid LazyInitializationException, even if those objects are loaded before other forward transactional actions, since forward action may be rolled back and clear the session.
BTW, Hibernate Session.merge() is different with Session.update() by:
Item item2 = session.merge(item);
item2 == item; // false, item - DETACHED, item2 - PERSIST
session.update(item); // no return value, make item PERSIST
发生这种异常的case:
@Transactional
public void foo() {
try{
bar();
} catch (RuntimeException re) {
// caught but not throw further
}
}
@Transactional
public void bar() {
}
如果foo在调用bar的时候，bar抛出RuntimeException，Spring在bar return时将Transactional标记为Rollback only， 而foo捕获了bar的RuntimeException，所以Spring将会commit foo的事务，但是foo和bar使用的是同一事务，因此在commit foo事务时，将会抛出UnexpectedRollbackException。注意：如果foo和bar在同一class中，不会出现这种情况，因为：
Since this mechanism is based on proxies, only 'external' method calls coming in through the proxy will be intercepted. This means that 'self-invocation', i.e. a method within the target object calling some other method of the target object, won't lead to an actual transaction at runtime even if the invoked method is marked with @Transactional!
可以通过配置log4j来debug Spring事务获取情况：
To delve more into it I would turn up your log4j logging to debug and also look at what ExerciseModuleController is doing at line 91, e.g.: add a logger for org.springframework.transaction
这周被Quartz折腾了一番。
我们知道，Quartz采用JobDataMap实现向Job实例传送配置属性，正如Quartz官方文档说的那样：
How can I provide properties/configuration for a Job instance? The key is the JobDataMap, which is part of the JobDetail object.
The JobDataMap can be used to hold any number of (serializable) objects
which you wish to have made available to the job instance when it
executes.
JobDataMap map ＝ context.getJobDetail().getJobDataMap();
我们通过map向Job实例传送多个objects，其中有一个是个bean，一个是基本类型。对于scheduled triggers，我们要求bean对于所有的序列都不变，包括其属性，而基本类型可以在Job运行过程中改变，并影响下一个序列。实际情况是，对于下个序列，bean的属性被上次的修改了，而基本类型却维持第一次put到Map里面的值。正好和我们要求的相反。
受bean的影响，以为map里面包含的都是更新的对象，即每个序列里面的JobDetail是同一个对象，但是基本类型的结果否认了这一点。回头重新翻阅了下Quartz的文档：
Now, some additional notes about a job's state data (aka JobDataMap): A
Job instance can be defined as "stateful" or "non-stateful".
Non-stateful jobs only have their JobDataMap stored at the time they
are added to the scheduler. This means that any changes made to the
contents of the job data map during execution of the job will be lost,
and will not seen by the job the next time it executes.
Job有两个子接口：StatefulJob and InterruptableJob，我们继承的是InterruptableJob，或许Quartz应该有个InterruptableStatefulJob。另外StatefulJob不支持并发执行，和我们的需求不匹配，我们有自己的同步控制，Job必须可以并发运行。
然后查看了Quartz的相关源码：
// RAMJobStore.storeJob
public void storeJob(SchedulingContext ctxt, JobDetail newJob,
boolean replaceExisting) throws ObjectAlreadyExistsException {
JobWrapper jw = new JobWrapper((JobDetail)newJob.clone()); // clone a new one
.
jobsByFQN.put(jw.key, jw);
}
也就是说，store里面放的是初始JobDetail的克隆，在序列运行完时，只有StatefulJob才会更新store里面的JobDetail：
// RAMJobStore.triggeredJobComplete
public void triggeredJobComplete(SchedulingContext ctxt, Trigger trigger,
JobDetail jobDetail, int triggerInstCode) {
JobWrapper jw = (JobWrapper) jobsByFQN.get(jobKey);
if (jw != null) {
JobDetail jd = jw.jobDetail;
if (jd.isStateful()) {
JobDataMap newData = jobDetail.getJobDataMap();
if (newData != null) {
newData = (JobDataMap)newData.clone();
newData.clearDirtyFlag();
}
jd.setJobDataMap(newData); // set to new one
}
}
然后，每次序列运行时所用的JobDetail，是存放在Store里面的克隆。
// RAMJobStore.retrieveJob
public JobDetail retrieveJob(SchedulingContext ctxt, String jobName,
String groupName) {
JobWrapper jw = (JobWrapper) jobsByFQN.get(JobWrapper.getJobNameKey(
jobName, groupName));
return (jw != null) ? (JobDetail)jw.jobDetail.clone() : null; // clone a new
}
问题很清楚了，存放在Store里面的JobDetail是初始对象的克隆，然后每个序列所用的JobDetail， 是Store里面的克隆，只有Stateful job，Store里面的JobDetail才更新。
最有Quartz里面使用的clone():
// Shallow copy the jobDataMap. Note that this means that if a user
// modifies a value object in this map from the cloned Trigger
// they will also be modifying this Trigger.
if (jobDataMap != null) {
copy.jobDataMap = (JobDataMap)jobDataMap.clone();
}
所以对于前面所讲的，修改bean的属性，会影响所有clone的对象，因此，我们可以将基本类型封装到一个bean里面，map里面存放的是bean，然后通过修改bean的属性，来达到影响下一个序列的目的。

Web application design: the REST of the story
Key points:
- HTTP is a very general, scalable protocol. While most people only
think of HTTP as including the GET and POST methods used by typical
interactive browsers, HTTP actually defines several other methods that
can be used to manipulate resources in a properly designed application
(PUT and DELETE, for instance). The HTTP methods provide the verbs in a web interaction.
- Servers are completely stateless. Everything necessary to service a request is included by the client in the request.
- All application resources are described by unique URIs. Performing
a GET on a given URI returns a representation of that resource's state
(typically an HTML page, but possibly something else like XML). The
state of a resource is changed by performing a POST or PUT to the
resource URI. Thus, URIs name the nouns in a web interaction.
刚刚看CCTV实话实说，很有感触，义乌技术职业学院给人眼前一亮，尤其是他们副院长的一番言论。
技术职业学院非得要升本科，本科非要成清华，义乌职业技术学院副院长评价当前高校的现状，定位严重有问题，技术职业学院应该培养应用型人才，而清华就应该培养研究性人才，两种学校的定位不能一样，培养方式，评判标准都应该不同，而现在大多数高校的定位都一样，这是不对的。个人非常赞同这个观点，其实，这个观点也可以应用到我们这些刚开始工作的年轻人身上，消除浮躁，找准定位，然后沿着定位踏实做事，并且应该采取相应的评判标准，这个很重要。

Question:
We are planning to calculate the percentage of physical memory utilised as below:
System Page Size: 4Kbytes
Memory: 5343128K (1562428K) real, 13632356K (3504760K) virtual, 66088K free Page# 1/604
Now the formula goes as below:
(free memory / actual active real memory) * 100
(66088/1562428) * 100 = 4.22 %
Please let us know if its the correct formula .
Mainly we are interested in RAM percentage utilised
Reply 1:
Red Hat/Centos v 5 take spare ram and use it for a buffer cache.
100%
memory allocation is pretty meaningless because allocation is almost
always near 100%. The 2.6.x kernel permits rapid re-allocation of
buffer to other purposes eliminating a performance penalty that you see
on an OS like HP-UX
I'm not thrilled with your formula because
it includes swap(virtual memory). If you start digging too deep into
virtual memory, your system start paging processes from memory to disk
and back again and slows down badly.
The formula is however essentially correct.
Reply 2:
Here, a quick example from the machine under my desk:
Mem: 3849216k total, 3648280k used, 200936k free, 210960k buffers
Swap: 4194296k total, 64k used, 4194232k free, 2986460k cached
If
the value of 'Swap used' is up (i.e. hundreds of megabytes), then
you've got an issue, but as you can see, it's only 64k here.
Your formula for how much memory is used is something along the lines of this:
(Used - (Buffers + Cached) / Total) * 100 = Used-by-programs%
(Free + Buffers + Cached / Total) * 100 = Free%

昨天遇到个非常奇怪的bug：更新了一下后台的代码，结果每次点击页面都会导致servlet方法调用两次，从而页面报错（逻辑上不让调两次 ），我们的前台采用gwt，servlet engine采用tomcat，debug的时候，断点放在servlet所调用的method上，结果invoke两次，由此断定，前台代码的问题（有点武断哦
），然后负责前台的同事debugging前台的代码，噼里啪啦半天。。。，说是前台好像没有调两次（之所以用好像，是debugging时部分代码走两次，部分走一次），而我当时的想法是，后台怎么操作，也不至于让servlet调用两次吧，所以我个人就认定是前台逻辑导致重复rpc调用（gwt），但是这个bug在这两天才出现的，从svn的历史记录来看，前台代码在这两天基本没什么改变，同事只好从svn上一个version接一个version的check，最后确定出两个相邻的versions，前一个能用，后一个出bug，这时我隐约感觉到是后台的问题，但是还是想不明白，后台的逻辑怎么就能让前台重复调用，非常不解，没办法，在同事的建议下，在servlet的那个method上加上一条debug信息，做了两次试验，一次是完整的代码，一次是把method中调用后台的接口注释掉，结果从日志上看出，前一次试验debug信息打印了两次，后一次试验debug只打印了一次，此时，确定是后台逻辑影响了前台的调用（此时，觉得走弯路了，为什么不早点做这个试验，其实确定是前台还是后台的问题，只需要做这样一个简单的试验。。。）。接下来，我思考的就是到底是什么在作怪呢，对比svn上的两个版本，只有两处可能的改动，一处是将return改成throw exception, 一处是调用了Thread.currentThread.interrupt()，我一个感觉是后者，注掉这句后，一切OK，呵呵，庆幸没有先尝试前者，要不改动很大，。。。
刚刚看了gwt的源码，还没找到问题的根源，我的观点是，thread接收到interrupt信号时，会重复发送rpc调用，（呵呵，还没确定）。。。
最近心情不是很好，上周三，父亲的一次意外，给家里本来平静的生活带来了很大的波澜，我也第一次感受到来自于家庭的压力，由此带来的一系列问题，一直萦绕着我，责任，responsibility，是这几天我告诫自己最多的一个词，是啊，该到了承受家庭责任的时候了。
父亲的这次意外，揪住了全家人的心，我也更多的为两位老人思考了，这两天，老想起一句话：人只有经历的多了，才能成熟。我很喜欢类比，其实就跟我们做数学题一样，看的多了，做的多了，考试的时候才能迎刃而解，什么东西，或许只有自己亲身经历，才能体会其中的更多细节，才能激发更多的收获。
祝福父亲的身体早日康复，bless。。。
