The Power of Java Reflection: Changing the Behavior of Classes and Objects

Introduction Last week, I wrote an introduction about scraping web pages to collect metadata, and mentioned that it was impossible to scrape the New York Times website. The New York Times paywall blocks your attempts to collect basic metadata. But there is a way to solve this problem using New York Times API. Recently I started building a community website on the Yii platform, which I will publish in a future tutorial. I want to be able to easily add links that are relevant to the content on my site. While people can easily paste URLs into forms, providing title and source information is time-consuming. So in today's tutorial I'm going to extend the scraping code I recently wrote to leverage the New York Times API to collect headlines when adding a New York Times link. Remember, I'm involved

We can access the metadata of audio files using Mutagen and the eyeD3 module in Python. For video metadata we can use movies and the OpenCV library in Python. Metadata is data that provides information about other data, such as audio and video data. Metadata for audio and video files includes file format, file resolution, file size, duration, bitrate, etc. By accessing this metadata, we can manage media more efficiently and analyze the metadata to obtain some useful information. In this article, we will take a look at some of the libraries or modules provided by Python for accessing metadata of audio and video files. Access audio metadata Some libraries for accessing audio file metadata are - using mutagenesis

How to solve class loader conflicts in Java development Introduction: In Java development, class loader conflicts are a common problem. When different class loaders are used to load the same class or resource file, conflicts will occur, causing the program to fail to run properly. This article explains what a class loader conflict is and how to resolve it. 1. What is a class loader conflict? The class loading mechanism in Java adopts the parent delegation model. Each class loader has a parent class loader, and the final parent class loader is the startup class loader. when needed

Microsoft has announced the end of support date for Power BI Desktop on Windows 8.1. Recently, the tech giant’s premier data analytics platform also introduced TypeScript support and other new features. Today, a new Tabular Model Definition Language (TMDL) for Power BI was launched and is now available in public preview. TMDL is required due to the highly complex BIM files extracted from the huge semantic data model created using Power BI. Traditionally containing model metadata in Tabular Model Scripting Language (TMSL), this file is considered difficult to process further. Additionally, with multiple developers working on

Java reflection is a powerful tool that allows you to access the private fields and methods of a class, thereby revealing the inner workings of the software. This is useful in areas such as reverse engineering, software analysis and debugging. To use Java reflection, you first need to import the java.lang.reflect package. Then, you can use the Class.forName() method to obtain the Class object of a class. Once you have a Class object, you can use various methods to access the fields and methods of the class. For example, you can use the getDeclaredFields() method to get all fields of a class, including private fields. You can also use the getDeclaredMethods() method

A key feature of Pandas is the ability to handle metadata that can provide additional information about the data present in a DataFrame or Series. Pandas is a powerful and widely used library in Python for data manipulation and analysis. In this article, we will explore how to add metadata to a DataFrame or Series in Python using Pandas. What is metadata in Pandas? Metadata is information about the data in a DataFrame or Series. It can include the data type about the column, the unit of measurement, or any other important and relevant information to provide context about the data provided. You can use Pandas to

Obtaining method: 1. Create a sample object; 2. Obtain the value of the field through field.get(person), where person is the sample object and field is the Field object, representing a field; 3. Set the field through setAccessible(true) In the accessible state, even private fields can get their values; 4. Traverse the field array, get the name and corresponding value of each field, and print it out.

The principle of the Java reflection mechanism is that when a bytecode file is loaded into memory, the jvm will dissect the bytecode and create a Class object of the object. The jvm stores all the bytecode file information into the Class object. As long as After obtaining the Class object, you can use the object to set the properties or methods of the object, etc. The reflection mechanism is the function of knowing all the attributes and methods of any class in the running state. For any object, it can call any of its attributes and methods, dynamically obtain information, and dynamically call object methods.
