Simple tricks to enhance your java cui program

By
Today I will tell you how can you enhance your simple java CUI programs and applications with these small tricks and methods

How to clear the output screen through code


If you had ever make a vast java program then you might have been met with the problem on how to clear the output screen when a specific function is called or it is also needed in large menu driven programs .If you want the answer then you are on the Wright track.
In C++ it is easy to clear the screen by just invoking the function clrscr().However java does not provide any predefined function In order to do so yet this one line code can help you to clear the output screen .

System.out.print(“\f”);
I know you could not believe it but its true this one line can clear the output screen.
For your satisfaction see this video practical below.

My dprint and dpritln functions


To enhance your cui java program you could use these two user defined functions in your java program these functions can be used in place of of print() and println() of System class.

What’s special in them

These function provide a special typing effect to your cui program dprint() is similar to print() and dprintln() is similar to println().

dprint():-

        
public void dprint(String textToPrint, int timeToWait) 
           {
              int  i;
              for( i=0;i<textToPrint.length();i++)
                    {
                      System.out.print(textToPrint.charAt(i));
                       try
                          {
                            Thread.sleep(timeToWait);// stop the printing process for” timeToWait” mill seconds
                           }
                       catch (Exception e){}

                     }
           }



dprintln():-


                
                 public void dprintln(String textToPrint, int timeToWait)
                 {
                      int  i;
                     for( i=0;i<textToPrint.length();i++)
                         {
                           System.out.print(textToPrint.charAt(i));
                           try
                             {
                              Thread.sleep(timeToWait); // stop the printing process for” timeToWait” mill seconds
                              }
                           catch (Exception e){}
                         }
                           System.out.println();//changes the line
                  }



Here is a video practical which will show you what special effect it gives to the program.




 My halt function


If you have seen the previous video you would have found that there is a time gap between the demonstration between output using normal print and output using dprint() this gap is created  by my halt() it stops the program compilation for  a specific period let’s see how to code it.

public void halt(int timeToWait)  //timeToWait is taken in milliseconds
{
try
{
Thread.sleep(timeToWait); // stop the printing process for” timeToWait” mill seconds
}
catch (Exception e){}

}

Create a simple virus using java

By
What's my idea Before we start talking how we will create a simple flooder virus using java we must be clear about what is  the idea and how to implement it. So the idea is to create a program which will create  thousands of blank files in a drive you will don't believe but it could create file with  a speed of   1060+ files per second . How to implement it Now the problem is how we would do this?? So here is the answer .  First of all we will design a loop which will run  N  number of times where  N  is the number of files which we want to create. Then we will create a new File with the help of  createNewFile()  function of  java.io.File  class. The name of each file is the value of the variable which is used in the loop. Here is the sample virus program. /**  * **********This virus program is just for educational purpose   * author will not be responsible for any issues **************  *   * @author (Shashank

Hijack Clipboard using java

By
What is Clipboard? The clipboard is a special location in your computer's memory that temporarily stores data that has been cut or copied from a document. This data can then be pasted to a new location. The clipboard will typically hold its information until you cut or copy something else, or log out of the computer. For example, a user may copy information from a word processor and paste that information into an e-mail message. What is Clipboard Hijack? A clipboard hijacking is an exploit in which the attacker gains control of the victim'sclipboard and replaces its contents with their own data, such as a link to a malicious Web site.For more details see  here . Hacking clipboard using java. Our java code will repeatedly change clipboard text with the hackers text, may be a irritating line ,or a URL to your site. We will use the Toolkit class to get the system clipboard and then we will use the Clipboard class to change the content of clipboard.
