This post explains how to programmatically get access to a printer configured as default printer in a machine. Java provides PrintServiceLookup class, which provides static methods through which we can get a reference to the printer. Each printer installed in a machine is represented by an instance of PrintService interface. The PrintService interface provides methods…… Continue reading Getting access to default printer

The below explains how to use it Main Class package IO; import java.io.PushbackReader; import java.io.StringReader; public class PushBackReaderDemo { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {…… Continue reading PushBackReader Demo
Creating dynamic proxy objects
This post explains how to create proxy objects using Java Proxy api. We need the below items to create a proxy. 1) proxy interfaces (list of interfaces the dynamic proxy class will implement). 2) dynamic proxy class is proxy class generated at runtime and implements the proxy interfaces. 3) proxy instance is an instance of…… Continue reading Creating dynamic proxy objects
Listening to unmarshalling events
By subclassing Unmarshaller.Listener abstract class, we can create listener class which will listen to unmarshling events. We can add our code if we want to perform some actions before and after unmarshalling. The Unmarshaller.Listener class has two methods which can be overridden. By default the methods doesn’t perform any actions. 1) public void beforeUnmarshal(Object target,…… Continue reading Listening to unmarshalling events
Listening to marshaling events
By subclassing Marshaller.Listener abstract class, we can create listener class which will listen to marshling events.

Programmatically generating schema for java classes
This post will explain how to generate schema files for java classes programmatically. The schema is generated by an instance of JAXBContext. In addition to JAXBContext we also need SchemaOutputResolver for this purpose. The SchemaOutputResolver class is an abstract class so we need to create a new class extending SchemaOutputResolver as shown below. package JAXB;…… Continue reading Programmatically generating schema for java classes
