java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/springframework/dao/DataAccessException

Problem: The problem is we are missing to add the Spring Transaction jar file to class path.

Solution: Add the spring-tx- x.x.RELEASE.jar to the class path. here x.x is spring current version you are using.

Case Insensitive Sorting Example in Oracle11g

Step1: Create Employee table 

create table employee(id int, name varchar(20));

Step2: Insert values to Employee table

insert into employee values(1,'Ranga');
insert into employee values(2,'rAnga Reddy');
insert into employee values(3,'Raja');
insert into employee values(4,'raJa Reddy');
insert into employee values(5,'raja');
insert into employee values(6,'Reddy');
insert into employee values(7,'ranga');

Step3: Select the Employee values with out sorting

select * from employee;

------------------------------------------- 

ID NAME
1 Ranga
2 rAnga Reddy
3 Raja
4 raJa Reddy
5 raja
6 Reddy
7 ranga

Step4: Select the Employee values with sorting 

select * from employee order by name;

------------------------------------------- 

ID NAME
3 Raja
1 Ranga
6 Reddy
2 rAnga Reddy
4 raJa Reddy
7 ranga
5 raja

Step5: Select the Employee values with case insensitive sorting 

select * from employee order by upper(name);

------------------------------------------- 

ID NAME
5 raja
3 Raja
4 raJa Reddy
7 ranga
1 Ranga
2 rAnga Reddy
6 Reddy

Java program to check if number is Armstrong or not.

/**
 * @file : ArmstrongExample.java
 * @description : 
 */

/**
    A number is called as ARMSTRONG number if,sum of cube of every digit present in the number is equal 
    to the number itself then that number is called as armstrong number.For example the 153 is a armstrong 
    number because 1^3 + 5^3 + 3^3 =153. 

Some of the Armstrong number are 0, 1, 153, 370, 371, 407

public class ArmstrongExample {
 public static void main(String[] args) {
  Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in); 
  System.out.println("Enter Number: ");

   sum = den * den * den + sum;
   num = num / 10;   
  } while(num != 0);
  
  if(number == sum) {
   return true;
  }
  return false;  
 }
} 

Output: 

Enter Number: 
141
141 not Armstrong

Enter Number: 
153
153 is Armstrong

Explanation:

Assume Number is 153

Step1: 

Initially

number = 153

sum = 0

after entering while loop

den = 153 % 10 = 3

sum = 3 * 3 * 3 + 0(sum) = 27

num = 153 / 10 = 15

next do while check the do while condition i.e num != 0 = 15 != 0 = true

Step2:

Now sum = 27

    num = 15

den = 15 % 10 = 5

sum = 5 * 5 * 5 + 27(sum) = 125 + 27 = 152

num = 15 / 10 = 1

next it will check condition i.e num != 0 = 1 != 0 = true

Step3:

Now sum = 152

    num = 1

 den = 1 % 10 = 1

 sum = 1 * 1 * 1 + 152(sum) = 1 + 152 = 153

 num = 1 / 10 = 0

next it will check do while condition i.e num != 0 = 0 != 0 = false

Now program exits the while loop...

then we are comparing the number == sum i.e 153 == 153

New Features in Spring Framework 4.0:

New Features in Spring Framework 4.0:

The Spring 4.0 is the latest major release of Spring framework which the support for Java 8, JEE 7, REST WebServices and HTML 5 supports.

• Removed Deprecated Packages and Methods - In Spring Framework 4.0 all deprecated packages, classes and methods have been removed.
• Java 8 support - Spring Framework 4.0 provides support for several Java 8 features such as expression of callbacks using lambdas, JSR 310 Date and Time API, and parameter name discovery.

• Java EE 7 support - Spring Framework 4.0 supports the Java EE 7 features such as Java Message Service (JMS) API 2.0, Java Transaction API (JTA) 1.2,Java Persistence API 2.1, Bean Validation 1.1, JCache 1.0 RC1 and Concurrency Utilities for Java EE 1.0.
• Groovy Bean Definition DSL - It is possible to define Spring beans using Groovy DSL, a concise dynamic language on the JVM.
• Core Container Improvements - There have been several general improvements to the core container:

• Auto-wiring based on generic types.
• @Description annotation has been added.
• @Conditional annotation is introduced that can conditionally filter the beans.
• @Ordered annotation and Ordered interface are supported for ordering the Beans.
• Now programmers can write custom annotations that expose specific attributes from the source annotation.
• The @Lazy annotation can now be used on injection points, as well as on @Bean definitions.
• CGLIB-based proxy classes no longer require a default constructor. Support is provided via the objenesis library which is repackaged inline and distributed as part of the Spring Framework. With this strategy, no constructor at all is being invoked for proxy instances anymore.
• General Web Improvements - The following general improvements have been made to Spring’s Web modules:
• We can use the new @RestController annotation with Spring MVC applications, removing the need to add @ResponseBody to each of your @RequestMapping methods.
• The AsyncRestTemplate class has been added, allowing non-blocking asynchronous support when developing REST clients.
• Spring now offers comprehensive timezone support when developing Spring MVC applications.
• WebSocket, SockJS, and STOMP Messaging
• A new spring-websocket module provides comprehensive support for WebSocket-based, two-way communication between client and server in web applications. It is compatible with JSR-356, the Java WebSocket API, and in addition provides SockJS-based fallback options (i.e. WebSocket emulation).
• A new spring-messaging module adds support for STOMP as the WebSocket subprotocol to use in applications along with an annotation programming model for routing and processing STOMP messages from WebSocket clients. As a result an @Controller can now contain both @RequestMapping and @MessageMapping methods for handling HTTP requests and messages from WebSocket-connected clients.
• Testing Improvements -
• Almost all annotations in the spring-test module (e.g., @ContextConfiguration, @WebAppConfiguration, @ContextHierarchy, @ActiveProfiles, etc.) can now be used as meta-annotations to create custom composed annotations and reduce configuration duplication across a test suite.
• Active bean definition profiles can now be resolved programmatically, simply by implementing a custom ActiveProfilesResolver and registering it via the resolver attribute of @ActiveProfiles.
