     Java’s garbage collection system reclaims objects automatically occurring transparently, behind the scenes, without any programmer intervention. It works like this: when no references to an object exist, that object is assumed to be no longer needed, and the memory occupied by the object is released. This recycled memory can then be used for a subsequent allocation. Although it complete transparent to developer, understanding how GC works helps developer to improve efficiency of Java Program. It is also helpful to improve performance of the program. JDK provides many runtime options to analysis GC and analysis your program behavior. Here is the simple java program to understand GC behavior 1: public class GCTest { 2: public GCTest() { 3: } 4: 5: public static void main(String[] args) { 6: int count = 10000; 7: long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis(); 8: System.out.println(" Total Count = " + count...

This post is in sequel  RESTful WS using Jersey Part 1 - Hello World . It shows how to utilize parameterized urls as well as query string. Please refer Part 1 to know developing restful services from scratch. This post utilizes same example. Parameters can be passed as part of path as well as url query string. Jersey provides two annotations @PathParam   and @QueryParam for extracting parameters from path and query respectively. We have modified getText method to accept both kind of parameters as below 1. Complete resource class will be package demo.resorces; import javax.ws.rs.core.Context; import javax.ws.rs.core.UriInfo; import javax.ws.rs.PathParam; import javax.ws.rs.Consumes; import javax.ws.rs.PUT; import javax.ws.rs.Path; import javax.ws.rs.GET; import javax.ws.rs.Produces; import javax.ws.rs.QueryParam; /** * REST Web Service * * @author Yogesh */ @Path("hello/{UserName}") p...

Here is the simple tutorial for RESTful Web Service using jersey implementation for RESTful Web Services. Java EE 6 has introduced jersey API as implementation for JSR-311 as API for RESTful Web Services. For ease of development,deployment and testing i have used NetBean 6.8 which supports JEE 6. Jersey is an annotation based implementation. Here are the few important annotations used in this tutorial @path(“/path/”) - a relative URI path indicating where the Java class will be hosted @GET - a request method designator and corresponds to HTTP Get method @POST - a request method designator and corresponds to HTTP Post method @Produces("text/plain") - specify the MIME media types of representations a resource can produce @Consumes("text/plain") -specify the MIME media types of representations a resource can consume @PathParam("User_Name") - a type of parameter that you can extract for use in your resource class @QueryPar...

       OC4J container provide support for RESTful services. OC4J installation comes with web service assembling tool (wsa) which take an extra optional parameter to give REST support. This post explains step by step approach to implement and deply RESTful services to OC4J. 1. Interface Code package demo.service; import java.rmi.Remote; import java.rmi.RemoteException; public interface StringService extends Remote{     public String toUppercase(String str) throws RemoteException;     public String toLowerCase(String str)throws RemoteException; } 2. Implementation for Interface package demo.service; import java.rmi.Remote; import java.rmi.RemoteException; public class StringServiceImpl {     public StringServiceImpl() {     }     public String toUppercase(String str){   ...
