With most programming languages, you either compile or interpret a program so that
you can run it on your computer. The Java programming language is unusual in that a
program is both compiled and interpreted. With the compiler, first you translate a
program into an intermediate language called Java byte codes —the platform-
independent codes interpreted by the interpreter on the Java platform. The interpreter
parses and runs each Java byte code instruction on the computer. Compilation
happens just once; interpretation occurs each time the program is executed. The
following figure illustrates how this works.
You can think of Java byte codes as the machine code instructions for the Java
Virtual Machine (Java VM). Every Java interpreter, whether it’s a development tool or a Web
browser that can run applets, is an implementation of the Java VM. Java byte codes help
make “write once, run anywhere” possible. You can compile your program into byte codes on
any platform that has a Java compiler. The byte codes can then be run on any implementation
of the Java VM. That means that as long as a computer has a Java VM, the same program
written in the Java programming language can run on Windows 2000, a Solaris workstation,
or on an iMac.
The Java Platform
You’ve already been introduced to the Java VM. It’s the base for the Java platform and is
ported onto various hardware-based platforms.
The Java API is a large collection of ready-made software components that provide many
useful capabilities, such as graphical user interface (GUI) widgets. The Java API is grouped
into libraries of related classes and interfaces; these libraries are known as packages. The
next section, What Can Java Technology Do? Highlights what functionality some of the
packages in the Java API provide.
The following figure depicts a program that’s running on the Java platform. As the figure
shows, the Java API and the virtual machine insulate the program from the hardware.
Native code is code that after you compile it, the compiled code runs on a
specific hardware platform. As a platform-independent environment, the Java
platform can be a bit slower than native code. However, smart compilers, well-tuned
interpreters, and just-in-time byte code compilers can bring performance close to that
of native code without threatening portability.
What Can Java Technology Do?
The most common types of programs written in the Java programming language are
applets and applications. If you’ve surfed the Web, you’re probably already familiar
with applets. An applet is a program that adheres to certain conventions that allow it
to run within a Java-enabled browser.
However, the Java programming language is not just for writing cute, entertaining
applets for the Web. The general-purpose, high-level Java programming language is
also a powerful software platform. Using the generous API, you can write many types
of programs.
The essentials: Objects, strings, threads, numbers, input and output, data
structures, system properties, date and time, and so on.
Internationalization: Help for writing programs that can be localized for users
worldwide. Programs can automatically adapt to specific locales and be
displayed in the appropriate language.
Security: Both low level and high level, including electronic signatures, public
and private key management, access control, and certificates.
The Java platform also has APIs for 2D and 3D graphics, accessibility, servers,
collaboration, telephony, speech, animation, and more. The following figure depicts
what is included in the Java 2 SDK.
We can’t promise you fame, fortune, or even a job if you learn the Java
programming language. Still, it is likely to make your programs better and requires
less effort than other languages. We believe that Java technology will help you do the
following:
Get started quickly: Although the Java programming language is a powerful
object-oriented language, it’s easy to learn, especially for programmers
already familiar with C or C++.
Write better code: The Java programming language encourages good coding
practices, and its garbage collection helps you avoid memory leaks. Its object
orientation, its JavaBeans component architecture, and its wide-ranging, easily
extendible API let you reuse other people’s tested code and introduce fewer
bugs.
Avoid platform dependencies with 100% Pure Java: You can keep your
program portable by avoiding the use of libraries written in other languages.
The 100% Pure JavaTM Product Certification Program has a repository of
historical process manuals, white papers, brochures, and similar materials
online.
Write once, run anywhere: Because 100% Pure Java programs are compiled
into machine-independent byte codes, they run consistently on any Java
platform.
Distribute software more easily: You can upgrade applets easily from a
central server. Applets take advantage of the feature of allowing new classes
to be loaded “on the fly,” without recompiling the entire program.
ODBC
Through the ODBC Administrator in Control Panel, you can specify the particular
database that is associated with a data source that an ODBC application program is written to
use. Think of an ODBC data source as a door with a name on it. Each door will lead you to a
particular database. For example, the data source named Sales Figures might be a SQL Server
database, whereas the Accounts Payable data source could refer to an Access database. The
physical database referred to by a data source can reside anywhere on the LAN.
The ODBC system files are not installed on your system by Windows 95. Rather, they
are installed when you setup a separate database application, such as SQL Server Client or
Visual Basic 4.0. When the ODBC icon is installed in Control Panel, it uses a file called
ODBCINST.DLL. It is also possible to administer your ODBC data sources through a stand-
alone program called ODBCADM.EXE. There is a 16-bit and a 32-bit version of this
program and each maintains a separate list of ODBC data sources.
From a programming perspective, the beauty of ODBC is that the application can be
written to use the same set of function calls to interface with any data source, regardless of
the database vendor. The source code of the application doesn’t change whether it talks to
Oracle or SQL Server. We only mention these two as an example. There are ODBC drivers
available for several dozen popular database systems. Even
Excel spreadsheets and plain text files can be turned into data sources. The operating
system uses the Registry information written by ODBC Administrator to determine which
low-level ODBC drivers are needed to talk to the data source (such as the interface to Oracle
or SQL Server). The loading of the ODBC drivers is transparent to the ODBC application
program. In a client/server environment, the ODBC API even handles many of the network
issues for the application programmer.
The advantages of this scheme are so numerous that you are probably thinking there
must be some catch. The only disadvantage of ODBC is that it isn’t as efficient as talking
directly to the native database interface. ODBC has had many detractors make the charge that
it is too slow. Microsoft has always claimed that the critical factor in performance is the
quality of the driver software that is used. In our humble opinion, this is true. The availability
of good ODBC drivers has improved a great deal recently. And anyway, the criticism about
performance is somewhat analogous to those who said that compilers would never match the
speed of pure assembly language. Maybe not, but the compiler (or ODBC) gives you the
opportunity to write cleaner programs, which means you finish sooner. Meanwhile,
computers get faster every year.
JDBC
In an effort to set an independent database standard API for Java; Sun Microsystems
developed Java Database Connectivity, or JDBC. JDBC offers a generic SQL database access
mechanism that provides a consistent interface to a variety of RDBMSs. This consistent
interface is achieved through the use of “plug-in” database connectivity modules, or drivers.
If a database vendor wishes to have JDBC support, he or she must provide the driver for each
platform that the database and Java run on.
JDBC was announced in March of 1996. It was released for a 90 day public review
that ended June 8, 1996. Because of user input, the final JDBC v1.0 specification was
released soon after.
The remainder of this section will cover enough information about JDBC for you to know
what it is about and how to use it effectively. This is by no means a complete overview of
JDBC. That would fill an entire book.
JDBC Goals
Few software packages are designed without goals in mind. JDBC is one that, because
of its many goals, drove the development of the API. These goals, in conjunction with early
reviewer feedback, have finalized the JDBC class library into a solid framework for building
database applications in Java.
The goals that were set for JDBC are important. They will give you some insight as to
why certain classes and functionalities behave the way they do. The eight design goals for
JDBC are as follows:
The designers felt that their main goal was to define a SQL interface for Java.
Although not the lowest database interface level possible, it is at a low enough level for
higher-level tools and APIs to be created. Conversely, it is at a high enough level for
application programmers to use it confidently. Attaining this goal allows for future tool
vendors to “generate” JDBC code and to hide many of JDBC’s complexities from the end
user.
2. SQL Conformance
SQL syntax varies as you move from database vendor to database vendor. In an
effort to support a wide variety of vendors, JDBC will allow any query
statement to be passed through it to the underlying database driver. This allows the
connectivity module to handle non-standard functionality in a manner that is suitable for
its users.
Because of Java’s acceptance in the user community thus far, the designers feel that
they should not stray from the current design of the core Java system.
5. Keep it simple
This goal probably appears in all software design goal listings. JDBC is no exception.
Sun felt that the design of JDBC should be very simple, allowing for only one method of
completing a task per mechanism. Allowing duplicate functionality only serves to confuse
the users of the API.
Strong typing allows for more error checking to be done at compile time; also, less
error appear at runtime.
Because more often than not, the usual SQL calls used by the programmer are simple
SELECT’s, INSERT’s, DELETE’s and UPDATE’s, these queries should be simple to
perform with JDBC. However, more complex SQL statements should also be possible.
And for dynamically updating the cache table we go for MS Access database.

Java is also unusual in that each Java program is both compiled and interpreted.
With a compile you translate a Java program into an intermediate language called
Java byte codes the platform-independent code instruction is passed and run on the
computer.
Compilation happens just once; interpretation occurs each time the program is
executed. The figure illustrates how this works.
Compilers My Program
You can think of Java byte codes as the machine code instructions for the Java
Virtual Machine (Java VM). Every Java interpreter, whether it’s a Java
development tool or a Web browser that can run Java applets, is an implementation
of the Java VM. The Java VM can also be implemented in hardware.
Java byte codes help make “write once, run anywhere” possible. You can
compile your Java program into byte codes on my platform that has a Java compiler.
The byte codes can then be run any implementation of the Java VM. For example,
the same Java program can run Windows NT, Solaris, and Macintosh.
Networking
TCP/IP stack:
In order to use a service, you must be able to find it. The Internet uses an
address scheme for machines so that they can be located. The address is a 32 bit
integer which gives the IP address. This encodes a network ID and more addressing.
The network ID falls into various classes according to the size of the network
address.
Network address
Class A uses 8 bits for the network address with 24 bits left over for other
addressing. Class B uses 16 bit network addressing. Class C uses 24 bit network
addressing and class D uses all 32.
Subnet address
8 bits are finally used for host addresses within our subnet. This places a limit of
256 machines that can be on the subnet.
Total address
Port addresses
A service exists on a host, and is identified by its port. This is a 16 bit number.
To send a message to a server, you send it to the port for that service of the host that
it is running on. This is not location transparency! Certain of these ports are "well
known".
Sockets
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
Here "family" will be AF_INET for IP communications, protocol will be zero, and type
will depend on whether TCP or UDP is used. Two processes wishing to communicate
over a network create a socket each. These are similar to two ends of a pipe - but the
actual pipe does not yet exist.
JFree Chart
JFreeChart is a free 100% Java chart library that makes it easy for developers to display
professional quality charts in their applications. JFreeChart's extensive feature set
includes:
A flexible design that is easy to extend, and targets both server-side and client-side
applications;
Support for many output types, including Swing components, image files
(including PNG and JPEG), and vector graphics file formats (including PDF, EPS and
SVG);
1. Map Visualizations
Sourcing freely redistributable vector outlines for the countries of the world,
states/provinces in particular countries (USA in particular, but also other areas);
Implement a new (to JFreeChart) feature for interactive time series charts --- to
display a separate control that shows a small version of ALL the time series data, with a
sliding "view" rectangle that allows you to select the subset of the time series data to display
in the main chart.
3. Dashboards
4. Property Editors
The property editor mechanism in JFreeChart only handles a small subset of the
properties that can be set for charts. Extend (or reimplement) this mechanism to provide
greater end-user control over the appearance of the charts.
Sun Microsystems defines J2ME as "a highly optimized Java run-time environment
targeting a wide range of consumer products, including pagers, cellular phones, screen-
phones, digital set-top boxes and car navigation systems." Announced in June 1999 at the
JavaOne Developer Conference, J2ME brings the cross-platform functionality of the Java
language to smaller devices, allowing mobile wireless devices to share applications. With
J2ME, Sun has adapted the Java platform for consumer products that incorporate or are based
on small computing devices.
Introduction In this section, we will go over some considerations you need to keep in
mind when developing applications for smaller devices. We'll take a look at the way the
compiler is invoked when using J2SE to compile J2ME applications. Finally, we'll explore
packaging and deployment and the role preverification plays in this process.
3.Design considerations for small devices
Developing applications for small devices requires you to keep certain strategies in
mind during the design phase. It is best to strategically design an application for a small
device before you begin coding. Correcting the code because you failed to consider all of the
"gotchas" before developing the application can be a painful process. Here are some design
strategies to consider:
* Keep it simple. Remove unnecessary features, possibly making those features a separate,
secondary application.
Smaller is better. This consideration should be a "no brainer" for all developers. Smaller
applications use less memory on the device and require shorter installation times. Consider
packaging your Java applications as compressed Java Archive (jar) files.
* Minimize run-time memory use. To minimize the amount of memory used at run time, use
scalar types in place of object types. Also, do not depend on the garbage collector. You
should manage the memory efficiently yourself by setting object references to null when you
are finished with them. Another way to reduce run-time memory is to use lazy instantiation,
only allocating objects on an as-needed basis. Other ways of reducing overall and peak
memory use on small devices are to release resources quickly, reuse objects, and avoid
exceptions.
4.Configurations overview
The configuration defines the basic run-time environment as a set of core classes and
a specific JVM that run on specific types of devices. Currently, two configurations exist for
J2ME, though others may be defined in the future:
* Connected Limited Device Configuration (CLDC) is used specifically with the KVM for
16-bit or 32-bit devices with limited amounts of memory. This is the configuration (and the
virtual machine) used for developing small J2ME applications. Its size limitations make
CLDC more interesting and challenging (from a development point of view) than CDC.
CLDC is also the configuration that we will use for developing our drawing tool application.
An example of a small wireless device running small applications is a Palm hand-held
computer.
* Connected Device Configuration (CDC) is used with the C virtual machine (CVM) and is
used for 32-bit architectures requiring more than 2 MB of memory. An example of such a
device is a Net TV box.
5.J2ME profiles
As we mentioned earlier in this tutorial, a profile defines the type of device supported. The
Mobile Information Device Profile (MIDP), for example, defines classes for cellular phones.
It adds domain-specific classes to the J2ME configuration to define uses for similar devices.
Two profiles have been defined for J2ME and are built upon CLDC: KJava and MIDP. Both
KJava and MIDP are associated with CLDC and smaller devices. Profiles are built on top of
configurations. Because profiles are specific to the size of the device (amount of memory) on
which an application runs, certain profiles are associated with certain configurations.
A skeleton profile upon which you can create your own profile, the Foundation Profile, is
available for CDC.
Profile 1: KJava
KJava is Sun's proprietary profile and contains the KJava API. The KJava profile is built on
top of the CLDC configuration. The KJava virtual machine, KVM, accepts the same byte
codes and class file format as the classic J2SE virtual machine. KJava contains a Sun-specific
API that runs on the Palm OS. The KJava API has a great deal in common with the J2SE
Abstract Windowing Toolkit (AWT). However,
because it is not a standard J2ME package, its main package is com.sun.kjava. We'll learn
more about the KJava API later in this tutorial when we develop some sample applications.
Profile 2: MIDP
MIDP is geared toward mobile devices such as cellular phones and pagers. The MIDP, like
KJava, is built upon CLDC and provides a standard run-time environment that allows new
applications and services to be deployed dynamically on end user devices. MIDP is a
common, industry-standard profile for mobile devices that is not dependent on a specific
vendor. It is a complete and supported foundation for mobile application
development. MIDP contains the following packages, the first three of which are core CLDC
packages, plus three MIDP-specific packages.
* java.lang
* java.io
* java.util
* javax.microedition.io
* javax.microedition.lcdui
* javax.microedition.midlet
* javax.microedition.rms
Methods for preparing input validations and steps to follow when error occur.
OBJECTIVES
1.Input Design is the process of converting a user-oriented description of the input into
a computer-based system. This design is important to avoid errors in the data input process
and show the correct direction to the management for getting correct information from the
computerized system.
2. It is achieved by creating user-friendly screens for the data entry to handle large
volume of data. The goal of designing input is to make data entry easier and to be free from
errors. The data entry screen is designed in such a way that all the data manipulates can be
performed. It also provides record viewing facilities.
3.When the data is entered it will check for its validity. Data can be entered with the
help of screens. Appropriate messages are provided as when needed so that the user will not
be in maize of instant. Thus, the objective of input design is to create an input layout that is
easy to follow
1. Designing computer output should proceed in an organized, well thought out manner; the
right output must be developed while ensuring that each output element is designed so that
people will find the system can use easily and effectively. When analysis design computer
output, they should Identify the specific output that is needed to meet the requirements.
3.Create document, report, or other formats that contain information produced by the system.
The output form of an information system should accomplish one or more of the following
objectives.

Proposed System:
Agriculture is a key industry around the world that needs to feed a population of six
and a half billion or more despite limited resources and is an area where both developed and
emerging countries need to work together to preserve the global environment for the future.
Although most people can see the benefits of using a more precise approach to manage crops
with additional information, the tools provided by precision farming and other information
technologies have not yet moved into mainstream agricultural management. The farmer from
the different location they can add the all types of fresh vegetables, fruites etc. The increased
complexity of the systems inhibits easy adoption and makes calculations as to the financial
benefits uncertain. These issues can be resolved by improving the decision-making process
though better Management Information Systems, improved data interchange standards and
clear management methods.
Advantages:
The purposes to which agricultural information management system can be put are many and
varied.
