GWT Hosted mode on 64bit linux

GWT for linux is build against 32bit architecture. It contains some SWT/GTK 32bit modules. So if you try to run it with 64bit java it failsException in thread “main” java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /opt/tools/sdk/gwt/gwt-linux-1.5.3/libswt-pi-gtk-3235….

You have two choices. Find 64bit SWT/GTK modules with same build version (3235 in this case) – good luck! or download 32bit JRE.

I chose second option and it took me 3 mins to resolve the problem.
Find proper JRE version on Oracle site I suggest bin file instead rpm. It unpacks jre to own dir. Move that directory to some convenient location (it doesn’t matter where). Edit gwt.properties *and set java.executable* to java exec located in 32bit JRE.
Now run your GWT hosted mode and be unstoppable developer!

You may have some warnings from GTK, such as

/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/menuproxies/libappmenu.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
(GWT:351): Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to load type module: /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0
/menuproxies/libappmenu.so
**

But it has no consequences for me, so far…

Some sources say that you should set an environment var:

export LIBXCB_ALLOW_SLOPPY_LOCK=1

to block bugs in X display layer but I don’t know what does it mean :)

In this case I had to hadle with GWT version 1.5.3 (old corporate project)

Need to make a quick json fixes – JSONPath for rescue

From time to time I have a need to do some fixes in my json data. In a world of flat files I do this with grep/sed/awk tool chain. How to handle it for JSON? Searching for a solution I came across the JSONPath. It quite mature tool (from 2007) but I haven't hear about it so I decided to share my experience with others.

First of all you can try it without pain online: http://jsonpath.curiousconcept.com/. Full syntax is described at http://goessner.net/articles/JsonPath/



But also you can download python binding and run it from command line:
$ sudo apt-get install python-jsonpath-rw
$ sudo apt-get install python-setuptools
$ sudo easy_install -U jsonpath

After that you can use inside python or with simple cli wrapper:
#!/usr/bin/python
import sys, json, jsonpath

path = sys.argv[1]

result = jsonpath.jsonpath(json.load(sys.stdin), path)
print json.dumps(result, indent=2)

… you can use it in your shell e.g. for json:
{
"store": {
"book": [
      {
"category": "reference",
"author": "Nigel Rees",
"title": "Sayings of the Century",
"price": 8.95
      },
      {
"category": "fiction",
"author": "Evelyn Waugh",
"title": "Sword of Honour",
"price": 12.99
      },
      {
"category": "fiction",
"author": "Herman Melville",
"title": "Moby Dick",
"isbn": "0-553-21311-3",
"price": 8.99
      },
      {
"category": "fiction",
"author": "J. R. R. Tolkien",
"title": "The Lord of the Rings",
"isbn": "0-395-19395-8",
"price": 22.99
      }
    ],
"bicycle": {
"color": "red",
"price": 19.95
    }
  }
}

You can print only book nodes with price lower than 10 by:
$ jsonpath '$..book[?(@.price

Result:
[
  {
"category": "reference",
"price": 8.95,
"title": "Sayings of the Century",
"author": "Nigel Rees"
  },
  {
"category": "fiction",
"price": 8.99,
"title": "Moby Dick",
"isbn": "0-553-21311-3",
"author": "Herman Melville"
  }
]
