How can I get the IP address of someone I'm instant messaging, and does it actually identify them?

Find out the Country (Location) of the person you are chatting with.

wanna know friends ip adress

Go to Start-->Run-->type in CMD-->Type in netstat, and look at the list given......

If you know his ISP you will be able to tell which is his, and which isn't. Finding the IP is simple, just type in netstat -n. 

The hostname will be like 890atlanticbb.net:3030

so when you type in netstat -n, look for the number ending in 3030.

The IP would be 12.125.46.2:3030
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If it is a dial-up account, this will most likely change. If using Cable or DSL, although now always static, they do remain constant for some time. Do you have an emails from your friend?

View the message header information and read from the top down. It should be the last IP in the header.

To use CMD and netstat, you need to have some type of connection with your friend. Not always the case. Email would be a good and easy first step. If not, initiate an IM Chat with your friend. This will help the netstat info.

------------------------------------------------------------------

I sense that your trying some kinda nasty stuff, well all you need is access to their command prompt, so go to your friends house and distract your freinds attention, like ask him to get cookies or just plain water or ask your girlfriend to keep him engaged over the phone.In the meantime all you have to do is
Start>Run>cmd>
C:>ipconfig
I.P address.........................xxx..xxx...
chk for this.

Primitive Data Types

Primitive Data Types

The Java programming language is strongly-typed, which means that all variables must first be declared before they can be used. This involves stating the variable's type and name, as you've already seen:

int gear = 1; 

Doing so tells your program that a field named "gear" exists, holds numerical data, and has an initial value of "1". A variable's data type determines the values it may contain, plus the operations that may be performed on it. In addition to int, the Java programming language supports seven otherprimitive data types. A primitive type is predefined by the language and is named by a reserved keyword. Primitive values do not share state with other primitive values. The eight primitive data types supported by the Java programming language are:

• byte: The byte data type is an 8-bit signed two's complement integer. It has a minimum value of -128 and a maximum value of 127 (inclusive). The byte data type can be useful for saving memory in large arrays, where the memory savings actually matters. They can also be used in place ofint where their limits help to clarify your code; the fact that a variable's range is limited can serve as a form of documentation.

• short: The short data type is a 16-bit signed two's complement integer. It has a minimum value of -32,768 and a maximum value of 32,767 (inclusive). As with byte, the same guidelines apply: you can use a short to save memory in large arrays, in situations where the memory savings actually matters.

• int: The int data type is a 32-bit signed two's complement integer. It has a minimum value of -2,147,483,648 and a maximum value of 2,147,483,647 (inclusive). For integral values, this data type is generally the default choice unless there is a reason (like the above) to choose something else. This data type will most likely be large enough for the numbers your program will use, but if you need a wider range of values, uselong instead.

• long: The long data type is a 64-bit signed two's complement integer. It has a minimum value of -9,223,372,036,854,775,808 and a maximum value of 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 (inclusive). Use this data type when you need a range of values wider than those provided by int.

• float: The float data type is a single-precision 32-bit IEEE 754 floating point. Its range of values is beyond the scope of this discussion, but is specified in section 4.2.3 of the Java Language Specification. As with the recommendations for byte and short, use a float (instead ofdouble) if you need to save memory in large arrays of floating point numbers. This data type should never be used for precise values, such as currency. For that, you will need to use the java.math.BigDecimal class instead. Numbers and Strings covers BigDecimal and other useful classes provided by the Java platform.

• double: The double data type is a double-precision 64-bit IEEE 754 floating point. Its range of values is beyond the scope of this discussion, but is specified in section 4.2.3 of the Java Language Specification. For decimal values, this data type is generally the default choice. As mentioned above, this data type should never be used for precise values, such as currency.

• boolean: The boolean data type has only two possible values: true and false. Use this data type for simple flags that track true/false conditions. This data type represents one bit of information, but its "size" isn't something that's precisely defined.

• char: The char data type is a single 16-bit Unicode character. It has a minimum value of '\u0000' (or 0) and a maximum value of '\uffff'(or 65,535 inclusive).

In addition to the eight primitive data types listed above, the Java programming language also provides special support for character strings via thejava.lang.String class. Enclosing your character string within double quotes will automatically create a new String object; for example, String s = "this is a string";. String objects are immutable, which means that once created, their values cannot be changed. The String class is not technically a primitive data type, but considering the special support given to it by the language, you'll probably tend to think of it as such. You'll learn more about the String class in Simple Data Objects

MVC in JAVA

Model-View-Controller MVC

Brief Description

Several problems can arise when applications contain a mixture of data access code, business logic code, and presentation code. Such applications are difficult to maintain, because interdependencies between all of the components cause strong ripple effects whenever a change is made anywhere. High coupling makes classes difficult or impossible to reuse because they depend on so many other classes. Adding new data views often requires reimplementing or cutting and pasting business logic code, which then requires maintenance in multiple places. Data access code suffers from the same problem, being cut and pasted among business logic methods.

The Model-View-Controller design pattern solves these problems by decoupling data access, business logic, and data presentation and user interaction.
