Getting all the method and variable name from class object using reflection in java

  The java.lang.Class have some useful methods for getting information about class at run time. In this example I am going to get the all field name and variable name present in particular class using reflection.


import java.lang.reflect.Field;
import java.lang.reflect.Method;

class TestReflection {
      public int field1;
      public int field2;
     
      public void addField() {
            System.out.println("Addition of two fields: " + (field1 + field2));
      }
}

public class ReflectionDemo {

      public static void main(String[] args) {
            try{
                  TestReflection testReflection = new TestReflection();
                  Method methodNames[] = testReflection.getClass().getMethods();
                  Field fieldName[] = testReflection.getClass().getFields();
                  for(int i=0;i<methodNames.length;i++) {
                        System.out.println("Method Name: " + methodNames[i].toString());
                  }
                  System.out.println("*************************");
                  for(int i=0;i<fieldName.length;i++) {
                        System.out.println("Field Name: " + fieldName[i].toString());
                  }
            }
            catch(Exception e) {
                  e.printStackTrace();
            }
      }
}

 In this example I have created the two class for implementing reflection. The class TestReflection have two integer field field1,field2 and one method addField() for adding these two integer. In main class, I have created the one object for TestReflection class. After that I get the Class object of testReflection using getClass() method. Finally I get the all method names and field names using Class.getMethods() and Class.getFields().

Ext JS 4 – Creating web page using Ext.container.Viewport class and region propery

The Ext.container.Viewport is used for creating general web page and region property is used for splitting web page into different parts. Ext.container.Viewport is a specialized container represents the viewable area of the application (the browser area). It render itself to the document body, there is no need for providing renderTo property and it automatically sizes itself to size of the browser viewport. The viewport also re-size the child elements based on view area(based on browser width and height). The default layout of the viewport is border layout and we can customize this property according to our requirements. The viewport does not provide any scrolling. If necessary, the child elements(generally panels) within viewport needs to provide a scroll feature by using autoScroll property. See the below example for better understanding. This is Home.js file placed into app/view folder. Ext.define('MyApp.view.Home', { extend : 'Ext.container.Viewport&#

Simple Login Application Using Spring MVC and Hibernate – Part 1

 I hope developers working in web application development might hear about MVC architecture. Almost all technologies provide support for MVC based web application development, but the success is based on many factors like reusable of the code, maintenance of the code, future adaption of the code, etc..,  The success of the Spring MVC is “ Open for extension and closed for modification ” principle. Using Spring MVC the developers can easily develop MVC based web application. We don’t need any steep learning curve at the same time we need to know the basics of spring framework and MVC architecture. The Spring MVC consists of following important components. 1. Dispatcher servlet 2. Controller 3. View Resolver 4. Model Spring MVC - Overview  The overall architecture of Spring MVC is shown here.  1. When “Dispatcher Servlet” gets any request from client, it finds the corresponding mapped controller for the request and just dispatches the request to the corresponding contro
