You need to read the instructions that come with the barcode reader. You will find that all barcode readers send the data in standard character format as if typed at the keyboard, so the only issue is how you control the reader itself, and that varies from model to model.

One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

How to validate our signature with our public key?

8-Dec-12 22:23

That depends on how the reader is connected to your system, and how it sends the information when it reads the barcode. As I said before, you need to read the documentation as we have no information on the device that you are using.

In the above BIG y is the public key and we must validate the signature with this public key(this signature will be different each time we sign).

Can any one please suggest Smile | :)

while signing the same data multiple times does signature vary?

11-Dec-12 19:51

Hey,

We found the solution i.e., we were trying to sign unencrypted file but we have to sign encrypted file.
Now we are able to validate our signature with our own public key. Blush | :O

I have a key pair(my own public key and private key).
I have signed my data with my private key. when i am trying to sign same data multiple times with private key, its generarting different signatures like

My Private Key :
// BIG p
FCA6 82CE 8E12 CABA 26EF CCF7 110E 526D B078 B05E DECB CD1E B4A2 08F3 AE16 17AE 01F3 5B91 A47E 6DF6 3413 C5E1 2ED0 899B CD13 2ACD 50D9 9151 BDC4 3EE7 3759 2E17.
// BIG q
962E DDCC 369C BA8E BB26 0EE6 B6A1 26D9 346E 38C5.
// BIG g

// BIG x
06CE 2BF2 3F33 FDCD 3F22 1301 4F56 1152 69F6 FA4D.

In the above it uses the
// BIG x
06CE 2BF2 3F33 FDCD 3F22 1301 4F56 1152 69F6 FA4D.

parameter as private key to sign.

Sign File when i have signed for the first time :

// Signature part R:

Sign File when i have signed for the second time :

Hey,

We found the solution. While signing same data multiple times with the same key will produce different signatures.

Hi All,

I'm getting different signature for same data while signing with the same key multiple times.

Can any one suggest whether it is right?

Thanks in advance.

What is right, what signing? Please provide sufficient information for people to understand what your problem is, maybe a short extract of the failing code would help.

I am coding in Java 6 on a computer with Windows XP.

PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices works fine and returns an array with all printers in my network I have installed.

PrintServiceLookup.lookupMultiDocPrintServices, however returns an empty array and I have seen a couple of other ppl (googled) not getting anything more.

Does anyone know if Java (6) for Windows XP is shipped with support for MultiDocPrintServices?

Hi folks,

I am new to Java and fairly new to programming in general. I have spent a couple of years in MS Access/VB.

In my quest to broaden my skill set I have started to play with Java. Honestly it seems to require a lot of code and classes to do the littlest thing.

My issue is this I have a mysql db with a customer table. I want by combobox to store the id and customer name but only display the customer name in the combobox.

When the user selects a customer I want the id to query the jtable and display the customer info.

I have this working except the part that stores id and name in the combobox.

If someone could provide an example it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I understand the example with animals and the idea of an index (i looked at this from one of your other posts) what I am having hard time grasping is that my index wont be 0-4 it could be a range of ids ie (100,1,201,2304, ect)

So how do I know when the they select pig that it corresponds to id 2304 in my customers list.

Thanks so much for all your help.

You omitted to mention this in your original post. Are you saying that your users select a customer by using some random number out of a list of hundreds? I would suggest a rethink of your design here. Of course, you could always provide some sort of cross reference between names and numbers; without knowing more about what you are actually trying to do it is difficult to suggest much more.

No the numbers are not random per say they are developed by mysql as they are autonumber/primarykey. So if we had two customers with same name they would have two differnt ids. I need to reference this id from the combobox to correctly populate the table.

So my table will look like this
id customername address city
1 customer1 123 this st atown
3 customer2 5 that st btown
4 customer 3 989 overhere st ctown
2 customer 4 9999 overthere st dtown
6 customer 5 234 thisstreet st e town

So when the user selects customer2 from the combobox it will in turn say customer2's id is 3.
3 will then be used to query the customer information and display this in the table.

I hope iam explaining this correctly... this was very common in ms access but all i had todo was hide the column with the id so it only displayed the customer name. When a new customer was selected it would take the hidden id column value to populate a table. It was extremely easy.

So how does a user find the entry for Smith J. if there is more than one of that name?

Chrisloys4-Dec-12 6:12

Well we would then look at the corresponding customer information to make sure we had the correct info. Sorry this really isnt a real life situation as we shouldnt have two customers with the same name.

Richard MacCutchan4-Dec-12 6:34

4-Dec-12 6:34

I think your question has more to do with your design and how you manage your customer lists, than with how to use a combo box.

So how would you design? Very odd this is like DB101. If you had a student table with five students named john smith you identify the difference by there id.

So are you saying that if I want to query a table based on the selection I have to have customer name referenced in other tables??? No that cant be right I look at referential db's most of the day they are linked on ids not names??

Someone out there must have run into this along the way.

Quite possibly, but I get the feeling this has very little to do with Java.

the java part is the jcombobox referencing the id of customer name selected.
If anyone could shed some light it would be most appreciated.

Thanks for all your responses.
