How to install JSVC on Linux WidenHome Log | WidenHome Log

In our team, we have a lot of Java standalone applications which should be run as daemon on Unix/Linux system, and we found JSVC is the best choice for us to wrap Java programs to daemons. This article records the steps on how to install JSVC executable on Linux, which is our stage/prod environment.

Download JSVC source package

First of all, we need to download JSVC source package from this URL:http://commons.apache.org/daemon/download_daemon.cgi, for example, I downloaded commons-daemon-1.0.5-src.tar.gz file. Or, download it via wget:

wget -c http://apache.etoak.com/commons/daemon/source/commons-daemon-1.0.5-src.tar.gz

Build JSVC executable
Unzip the source package and build JSVC executable.

chmod 755 commons-daemon-1.0.5-src.tar.gz tar zxvf commons-daemon-1.0.5-src.tar.gz cd commons-daemon-1.0.5-src/src/native/unix

Before building the JSVC executable, please make sure you have set JAVA_HOME variable correctly. And make sure you have “autoconf” and “make” installed, otherwise, install it by:

yum install autoconf yum install make

After that, we can configure and make the JSVC executable now.

sh support/buildconf.sh ./configure --with-java=/opt/apps/jdk make clean make

Eventually, move the “jsvc” to another folder and add that folder on PATH environment variable.

mv jsvc /opt/apps/commons-daemon vi ~/.bashrc

Add two lines in .bashrc:

PATH=/opt/apps/commons-daemon:$PATH export PATH

And then load the latest setting:

source ~/.bashrc

Now, we can use this command in script which will launch Java application as daemon.

Please make sure to add commons-daemon-x.jar into classpath, otherwise, we would see this error:

Cannot find daemon loader org/apache/commons/daemon/support/DaemonLoader Service exit with a return value of 1

For more information on how to use jsvc command, please refer tohttp://commons.apache.org/daemon/jsvc.html

Regression Testing

From  http://www.softwaretestinghelp.com/regression-testing-tools-and-methods/ The selective retesting of a  software  system that has been modified to ensure that any  bugs  have been fixed and that no other previously working functions have failed as a result of the reparations and that newly added features have not created problems with previous versions of the  software . Also referred to as  verification testing , regression testing is initiated after a  programmer  has attempted to fix a recognized problem or has added  source code  to a program that may have inadvertently introduced errors. It is a  quality  control measure to ensure that the newly modified code still complies with its specified requirements and that unmodified code has not been affected by the maintenance activity. What is Regression Software Testing? Regression means retesting the unchanged parts of the application. Test cases are re-execu...

ThreadPoolExecutor使用

From 洞玄的博客 http://dongxuan.iteye.com/blog/901689 jdk官方文档（javadoc）是学习的最好，最权威的参考。 文章分上中下。上篇中主要介绍ThreadPoolExecutor接受任务相关的两方面入参的意义和区别，池大小参数 corePoolSize和 maximumPoolSize，BlockingQueue选型（ SynchronousQueue， LinkedBlockingQueue， ArrayBlockingQueue ）；中篇中主要聊聊与 keepAliveTime这个参数相关的话题；下片中介绍一下一些比较少用的该类的API，及他的近亲： ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor 。 如果理解错误，请直接指出。 查看JDK帮助文档，可以发现该类比较简单，继承自AbstractExecutorService，而AbstractExecutorService实现了ExecutorService接口。 ThreadPoolExecutor的完整构造方法的签名是： ThreadPoolExecutor (int corePoolSize, int maximumPoolSize, long keepAliveTime, TimeUnit  unit, BlockingQueue < Runnable > workQueue, ThreadFactory  threadFactory, RejectedExecutionHandler  handler)   先记着，后面慢慢解释。 ===============================神奇分割线================================== 其实对于ThreadPoolExecutor的构造函数网上有N多的解释的，大多讲得都很好，不过我想先换个方式， 从Executors这个类入手 。因为他的几个构造工厂构造方法名字取得令人很容易了解有什么特点。但是其实Executors类的底层实现便是ThreadPoolExecutor！ ThreadPoolEx...

Spring MVC 3.2 Preview: Introducing Servlet 3, Async Support

Continuing the Spring 3.0 "simplification series" started by Keith and Chris , I would like to provide a quick overview of simplifications in scheduling and task execution enabled by Spring 3.0. I will be walking through a basic sample application that you can checkout from the spring-samples Subversion repository. It has been designed to be as simple as possible while showcasing both annotation-driven and XML-based approaches to scheduling tasks in Spring 3.0. Let's begin with the annotation-driven approach. You can run it directly via the main() method in AnnotationDemo. If you take a look, you'll see that it's nothing more than a bootstrap for a Spring ApplicationContext: public static void main(String[] args) {      new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext( "config.xml" , AnnotationDemo. class ); } The reason nothing else is necessary is that the ApplicationContext contains an "active" component, which we will...
