How to get current URL, parameters and Hash tag using jQuery and JavaScript? Example

While dealing with the current URL, many times you want to know what is the current URL path, What are the parameters, and what is the hashtag on the URL. The hashtag is pretty important if you are implementing a tab structure using HTML and JQuery. To avoid confusion, let's take an example of a URL: http://javarevisited.blogspot.com/2013/01/top-5-java-programming-books-best-good.html#ixzz2PGmDFlPd, in this example ixzz2PGmDFlPd, is a hashtag. Now, both JavaScript and JQuery provide a convenient way to retrieve the current URL in the form of window.location object. You can use various properties of the window.location JavaScript object like the window.location.href to get complete URL, window.location.pathname to get the current path, and window.location.hash to get a hashtag from current URL.

How to format/parse dates with LocalDateTime in Java 8 - Example Tutorial

One of the common tasks in a Java project is formatting or parsing data to String and vice-versa. Parsing date means you have a String that represents a date like "2017-08-3" and you want to convert it into an object which represents the date in Java, like java.util.Date in pre-Java 8 world and LocalDate or LocalDatetime in Java 8 world. Similarly, formatting a date means converting a date instance into a String, for example, you have a Date object or LocalDatetime object and you want a String in dd-MM-yyyy format. Java 8 API provides good support for formatting and parsing dates.

Difference between Period and Duration class in Java 8? [Example]

What is the difference between Period and Duration class in Java is one of the popular Java 8 interview questions and has been asked too many of my readers recently. If you were also wondering the difference between Period vs Duration and when to use Period over Duration and vice-versa then you have come to the right place. Java 8 has two classes to represent differences in time like Duration and Period. The main difference between Period and Duration is that they represent the difference in different units, A Duration is used to calculate time difference using time-based values (seconds, millisecond, or hours) but Period is used to measure the amount of time in date-based values like days, months and year.

What is Double Brace Initialization in Java? Example Initializing HashMap and List with values in Java

Double brace initialization is a Java idiom to initialize a Collection like a list, set, and map at the time of declaration. At times, you need a list of fixed elements e.g. supported products, supported currencies, or some other config, and on-the-spot initialization reduces the line of code and improves readability. Double brace initialization idiom becomes popular because there is no standard way to create and initialize Collection at the same time in Java. Unfortunately, unlike other JVM languages like Scala and Groovy, Java doesn't support collection literals yet.

Right way to Close InputStream and OutputStream in Java - Example

For some unknown reasons many Java programmers are not very comfortable with IO package. I don't know why, but I have found them much more comfortable with java.lang and java.util than java.io. One possible reason of this could be that, writing IO code require a bit of C++ like programming, which involves doing clean-up, releasing resources once done etc. Since Java made coding a lot easier by taking care of memory management, unknowingly it also introduced bad practice of not releasing resource after use like database connections, socket connection, files, directory, printers, scanners or any other scarce resource.

How to implement Command Design Pattern in Java with Example

Hello guys, it's been a long since I have shared a Java design pattern tutorial. I did share some courses to learn design patterns but haven't really talked about a particular design pattern in depth. So, today, we'll learn one of the important design pattern, which is often overlooked by Java developers. Yes, I am talking about the Command Pattern which can help you write flexible, loosely coupled code for implementing actions and events in your application. In simple words, the command design pattern is used to separate a request for action from the object which actually performs the action. This decoupling between Invoker and Receiver objects provides a uniform way to perform different types of actions. This decoupling is achieved using a Command object, which is usually an interface with methods like execute(). 

Can a Non Static Method Access a Static Variable/Method in Java?

"Can a non-static method access a static variable or call a static method" is one of the frequently asked questions on the static modifier in Java, the answer is, Yes, a non-static method can access a static variable or call a static method in Java. There is no problem with that because of static members i.e. both static variable and static methods belong to a class and can be called from anywhere, depending upon their access modifier. For example, if a static variable is private then it can only be accessed from the class itself, but you can access a public static variable from anywhere.
