Bug Busting with Banana Boy#2

Filed under: Contests, Tech — bananaboy @ 4:26 am

As the wide use of vista today became more and more popular, thousands of software and hardware out there facing wide variety of problems and bugs dealing with it which is considered programmers nightmare. I happen to be studying in the field of programing, so we are being taught programming in many different types of languages, levels, and compilers. Today’s bug deals with this software called BlueJ which is an environment developed by the University Kent as learning tool for object-orientation students.

Bug symptoms:

while having windows visa and Java Runtime Environment (JRV 5.0), BlueJ appear to not function normally when it come to project menu navigation where users would usually create or open projects. In a sum, project menu becomes unclickable due to the look-and-feel of Java failing to cope with windows vista (unless you have JRV 6.0 or newer versions)

Project menu

Solution:

You have to set the look-and-feel of BlueJ to “crossplatform”, don’t worry this is simple just follow these simple steps below:

1. Open the file “bluej.defs” by Notepad which is located in this directory “c:\BlueJ\lib\bluej.defs” .

2. Press and hold Ctrl and F and type “lookAndFeel”.

3. now just delete the “#”as highlighted in the image below and save your changes.

Codes

If you are considered why, by doing that you are erasing the sign “#” which make the code executable instead of being just a comment.

4. just to recheck run BlueJ and try to click on open a project and you shall see something like the image below:

Success

Now you are done!

Monkey confirmation!

Where is KingKong!?

Filed under: Blogging, Contests — kingkong @ 3:31 am


A man with a truckload of bananas stops for a pee. While he has his back turned a huge gorilla hand reaches down and picks up the truck, bananas and all.

Rocks go flying as the giant ape proceeds to ram the car into a hill, time and time again. All of a sudden the ape’s parent is there with a punitive swipe over the head, grunting out “Stop Playing. Go and eat your lunch.” Baby Kong defiantly continues to bash the truck into the hill. King Kong is not happy and smashes down his foot on the truck. King Kong picks up the car, cleans out the dirt and throws it back where it came from.

As the truck bounces on the ground the startled driver looks round. The text: “In a man’s world - you must be tough. Ford Ranger Opencab.”

Monkey 1 World of Arbitrary Coding Practices 0!

Filed under: Blogging, Contests, DIY, Rants — kingkong @ 5:28 am

YAY! For lack of a monkey sound that we could type to express, my relief that we got the site’s new theme up and running! It took me and KiwiPulse, quite awhile, to agree and decided on what was possible with the blogs theme, but we finally got it done! I really love the new header! We would love some user input on it, (please don’t ask about the six pack on the monkey’s butt, were as stumped as you are) we trying to give off that hardcore monkey feel with let us know if we pulled it off! KiwiPulse, is a new blog he discusses things such as web, fun stuff, and general stuff you don’t want to read but just end up reading anyway! I will be writing a full review sometime this weekend! Thanks to alllll of you who helped out with the feed burner full summary issues, the issue was due to the fact that when I started up my blog, I used RSS .92 instead of RSS 2.0 which allows full summary post, as supposed to previous versions of RSS! We will be writing to tutorials in order to help other people with this situation! We also have another up and coming series called Monkey Rage, so dig out all your bottled up angry and write a post about something you don’t like, and let out that rage. It just might get you featured! Its August now, we had a phenomenal first month blog world wise, not so much with the money, but here at the KingKongBlog we strive to build interrelationships now, and enjoy the heaps of cash later! Thanks again to MsDanielle and Enkay for all there help with the feed! Oh yeah, before we forget, we entered a blogging challenge over at OneMansGoal, so all the visits, links backs, and favs at technorati the better, if we actually do win something ( no prize as of yet) we will split it with all the commentators!
