does inter service needs any change to be made
Is it possible to have a VPN connection to my work servers from home which would only enable me to access my files, and not putting all the rest of my traffic through the VPN? Otherwise I have to connect to VPN when I need to use it and then disconnect to play games or enjoy adult material 129.215.47.59 ( talk) 13:41, 20 June 2012 (UTC)
When using my digital camera, will I get a better depth of field (have more of the scene in focus), if I position the camera far away, and put it on maximum optical zoom (avoiding digital zoom, as always) ? If so, why isn't this always done ? Does the optical zoom introduce some other distortions ? StuRat ( talk) 18:31, 20 June 2012 (UTC)
It seems that each person recommends the web framework he's using or the web framework that uses the same programming language that he knows. So, which is secure by default, scalable, reliable, and so on. I know there's a list here, but I need more feedback to make up my mind. I suppose not all there are stable or maintained regularly or useful for general purposes. OsmanRF34 ( talk) 18:52, 20 June 2012 (UTC)
I just had a look at the article Java (programming language), and noticed this method in an example:
public void showDialog() {
/*
* "try" makes sure nothing goes wrong. If something does,
* the interpreter skips to "catch" to see what it should do.
*/
try {
/*
* The code below brings up a JOptionPane, which is a dialog box
* The String returned by the "showInputDialog()" method is converted into
* an integer, making the program treat it as a number instead of a word.
* After that, this method calls a second method, calculate() that will
* display either "Even" or "Odd."
*/
this.input = Integer.parseInt(JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Please enter a number."));
this.calculate();
} catch (final NumberFormatException e) {
/*
* Getting in the catch block means that there was a problem with the format of
* the number. Probably some letters were typed in instead of a number.
*/
System.err.println("ERROR: Invalid input. Please type in a numerical value.");
}
}
What does the final
in catch (final NumberFormatException e)
do? How is it different from catch (NumberFormatException e)
?

I use LibreOffice 3.5.4.2, Firefox 13.0.1 and Windows7.
I want to import a complete html table (about 5000 rows and 10 columns) from a web page into a LibreOffice Calc spreadsheet.
Some of the cells are empty.
I need the data to be divided into cells exactly the same way in Calc as they were in the html (preferably keeping the various fonts as well).
Is it possible?
