Hi, For those who might not be aware, rjb is a killer gem for using java classes inside your rails app (or any ruby code). Check it out at: http://rubyforge.org/projects/rjb/ I was able to successfully use it in one of my apps that required some code that is only available in java. And it''s much nicer than having to compile a java app, then shell out using backticks, get back the return

Greetings. I am trying to list all keys in a java.util.HashMap field. The Java code to do this looks like: # Collection c = hMap.values(); # # //obtain an Iterator for Collection # Iterator itr = c.iterator(); # # //iterate through HashMap values iterator # while(itr.hasNext()) System.out.println(itr.next()); So, I took a stab at the ruby version: # I have a java hashmap called fields

Hi all, In several of the transformations I'm working on I need to embed the logical equivalent of puts/printf/etc. calls inline with code. I am having some difficulties getting the transformation code right. As I understand it, I should be creating a ConstantArray based on the string (in this case I'm taking an instruction, 'disassembling' it to an ostringstream then turning

Right now, my organization is using a commercial service (OneCallNow.com), that gives telephone notifications to all numbers in a predefined list. Example: -Admin records a voice message -Service calls each number in the list, and plays the message back to them It's a pretty handy service, albeit a bit pricey. I've been wondering if Asterisk could do this for me? I don't really want

Can Rails be used for printing an order in a store application that has arrived? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Folks, I'm a bit puzzled by the fact that if I generate 100,000 standard normal variates using rnorm() and perform the Jarque-Bera on the resulting vector, I get p-values that vary drastically from run to run. Is this expected? Surely the p-val should be close to 1 for each test? Are 100,000 variates sufficient for this test? Or is it that rnorm() is not a robust random number generator?

Hi all, I''m asking this question from the standpoint of a developer with almost 10 years experience with Microsoft technologies, mostly doing server side component and database work.

I''m researching generating PDF files via RoR. I see there are packages available to do this. One such package is the PDF-Writer. The examples I saw for this package save the PDF to a file. Is there a way I can output the PDF on-the-fly to the browser rather than having a temporary PDF file? I just can''t have these files laying around since they contain sensitive
