we need a programmer who is expert in java. I need a program which eliminates a couple of well known critical security flaws in how Java screens access embedded code and objects. OS & Hardware Platforms For platform-dependent issues and bugs in particular J2SE technologies, search this page for the platform name ("Windows", "Linux", or "Solaris"). Also see J2SE enhancements and changes. Solaris 2.6 Operating Environment Not Supported The Solaris 2.6 Operating Environment is not a supported platform for J2SE 1.4.1 or 1.4.2. One ramification of this is that support for Motif 1.2 in the J2SE 1.4.1 or 1.4.2 platform has been dropped. Linux Notes The following notes apply to use of this release on Linux platforms. Later updates of the Mozilla and Netscape browsers require a newer gcc 3.2 based Java Plugin. In the SDK, the gcc 3.2 plugin is supplied in the /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2/jre/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32 directory. In the JRE it is located in the /usr/java/j2re1.4.2/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32 directory. To discover if your web browser is gcc 3.2 based, run the following command when the browser is running. If no output is displayed, the browser is not gcc 3.2 based and the ns610 plugin needs to be used. If symbols starting with _ZN are displayed then your browser is gcc 3.2 based and needs the ns610-gcc32 plugin. Mozilla browser: ps -ef | grep mozilla-bin | awk '{print $10}' | xargs strings | grep _ZN | grep XPCOM Netscape browser 6.x and higher: ps -ef | grep netscape-bin | awk '{print $10}' | xargs strings | grep _ZN | grep XPCOM See Java Plugin instructions for more details Linux kernels for Itanium prior to 2.4.20 have serious virtual memory bugs. These early kernels are the standard kernels that come with RedHat for Itanium. Java applications running on these kernels, especially on multi-processor machines, will likely experience random segment faults and in general will be unreliable. Please verify that you have the 2.4.20 kernel or a later one installed by using the 'uname -a' command. You can obtain an updated kernel for RedHat Advanced Server from either HP or RedHat. BID INLY FOR THE INITIAL PART . IF YOU SUCCESSFULLY DO THIS I WILL CHOOSE YOU FOR WHOLE PROJECT. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows?
