Sphinx4 dictionary file not found

I am using Sphinx4 for custome home automatization software and I am stuck on using my custom dict file, for some reason it cant find the file even though I am sure I am using the correct path. This is my code :
package pccomone;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.InputStream;
import edu.cmu.sphinx.api.Configuration;
import edu.cmu.sphinx.api.LiveSpeechRecognizer;
import edu.cmu.sphinx.api.SpeechResult;
import edu.cmu.sphinx.api.StreamSpeechRecognizer;
public class Main {
private static final String BODICPATH = "PCCom/src/resource/bodict.dict";
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception{
Configuration configuration = new Configuration();
configuration.setAcousticModelPath("resource:/edu/cmu/sphinx/models/en-us/en-us");
configuration.setDictionaryPath(BODICPATH);
//configuration.setDictionaryPath("resource:/edu/cmu/sphinx/models/en-us/cmudict-en-us.dict"); use only for large commands!!!!!!!!!
configuration.setLanguageModelPath("resource:/edu/cmu/sphinx/models/en-us/en-us.lm.bin");
LiveSpeechRecognizer recognizer = new LiveSpeechRecognizer(configuration);
recognizer.startRecognition(true);
SpeechResult result;
while((result = recognizer.getResult()) != null){
String command = result.getHypothesis();
if(command.equalsIgnoreCase("stop")){
recognizer.stopRecognition();
System.exit(0);
}
System.out.println(command);
}
}
}
I didn't come far since I can't get it to use my custom dict file and the included dict file is way to large for the software to work fast and accurate.
This is the Error,

How can I solve this error in Processing using the unfoldingmaps

This is my code
import processing.core.PApplet;
import de.fhpotsdam.unfolding.UnfoldingMap;
import de.fhpotsdam.unfolding.utils.MapUtils;
public class SimpleMapApp extends PApplet {
UnfoldingMap map;
public void setup() {
size(750, 600,P2D);
map = new UnfoldingMap(this);
MapUtils.createDefaultEventDispatcher(this, map);
}
public void draw() {
map.draw();
}
}
When i run it throws exception:

Try changing your map provider.
map = new UnfoldingMap(this, new Google.GoogleMapProvider());

Java InputStream NullPointerException

I am trying to test some data mining algorithms from smile project (https://github.com/haifengl/smile). The testing process is simple (I have included into existing Eclipse project Maven repositories of Smile project), but with the following code I catch a NPE (Null pointer exception) with InputStream , the file is just heavy csv file necessary to be read (included in the same project folder)
package com.algorithms;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.text.ParseException;
import smile.data.AttributeDataset;
import smile.data.NominalAttribute;
import smile.data.parser.DelimitedTextParser;
public class DenclueTester {
public void doTestDenclue() throws IOException, ParseException
{
DelimitedTextParser parser = new DelimitedTextParser();
parser.setResponseIndex(new NominalAttribute("class"), 0);
InputStream in = this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("USCensus1990_data1.csv");
AttributeDataset data = parser.parse("US Census data", in);
double[][] x = data.toArray(new double[data.size()][]);
int[] y = data.toArray(new int[data.size()]);
}
public DenclueTester() {} //constructor
}
The following code is executed in main :
public class Dtest
{
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException, ParseException
{
DenclueTester dt = new DenclueTester();
dt.doTestDenclue();
}
}

Could anyone help me with that?

Solved issue by placing the csv file into /classes/package_name folder. Thanks

Calling Java's Desktop.open method from Javascript - access denied java.awt.AWTPermission showWindowWithoutWarningBanner

I have a web app that needs to be able open a file locally on a client machine, with the ability to save the file after editing. The web app generates a document on the server in a folder that is shared out via WebDAV & FTP and this folder is mounted on the client machine.
I cannot use a file:// type URI as it would not permit saving back to the server.
I intend trying to solve the problem with a small java applet embedded in the web app that handles this file opening, but I am having difficulties with permissions in Java. (Java isn't my field of expertise). Anyhow, I've narrowed the code down to the following:
localfile.html
<html>
<body>
<input id="input" value="Call from Javascript" type="button" onclick="callApplet('/Users/conor/1.txt')">
<script type='text/javascript'>
function callApplet(path) {
applet = document.getElementById('localfile');
applet.openFile(path);
}
</script>
<applet id="localfile" code="localfile.class" archive="localfile.jar" width="150" height="50"></applet>
</body>
</html>
localfile.java
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.lang.*;
import java.text.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.security.*;
public class localfile extends Applet {
public localfile() {
Panel p = new Panel();
p.add(new Button("Call from Java"));
add("North",p);
}
public void openFile(String path) {
System.out.println("File: " + path);
final File ffile = new File(path);
System.out.println("Got file.");
if (Desktop.isDesktopSupported()) {
System.out.println("Desktop is supported.");
final Desktop desktop = Desktop.getDesktop();
System.out.println("Got Desktop Handle.");
try {
desktop.open(ffile);
} catch(Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
System.out.println("File Opened.");
}
}
public boolean action(Event evt, Object arg) {
openFile("/Users/conor/1.txt");
return true;
}
}
I have compiled, created a jar file and signed it from the java source.
This produces a page with two buttons - a Java one (for testing) and a Javascript one. The Java button works fine as expected - and I can save the file etc. I want to pass the file path to the applet though so it is really the Javascript button I wish to get working. The Javascript one throws the following though:

I have also tried embedding the desktop.open call into a doPrivileged block, as follows:
AccessController.doPrivileged(new PrivilegedAction() {
public Object run() {
try {
desktop.open(ffile);
} catch(Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
});
but that throws error for javascript & java buttons as follows:
java.lang.SecurityException: class "localfile$1" does not match trust level of other classes in the same package
Any help would be appreciated.

Got it to work, so thought I'd post the solution here...
When I was compiling the java file with the doPrivileged call in it, the javac compiler creates two files - localfile.class and localfile$1.class. I wasn't sure initially what the localfile$1.class was and just presumed it was a temporary file of some sort. It was however a class file corresponding to the anonymous class within the doPrilileged block and needed to be included in the .jar file and properly signed.
So anyway, html file is as before, and final java file is as follows:
localfile.java
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.security.*;
public class localfile extends Applet {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
public localfile() {
Panel p = new Panel();
p.add(new Button("Call from Java"));
add("North",p);
}
public void openFile(String path) {
System.out.println("File: " + path);
final File ffile = new File(path);
System.out.println("Got file.");
if (Desktop.isDesktopSupported()) {
System.out.println("Desktop is supported.");
final Desktop desktop = Desktop.getDesktop();
System.out.println("Got Desktop Handle.");
AccessController.doPrivileged(new PrivilegedAction() {
public Object run() {
try {
desktop.open(ffile);
} catch(Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
});
System.out.println("File Opened.");
}
}
public boolean action(Event evt, Object arg) {
openFile("/Users/conor/1.txt");
return true;
}
}
I also found that there was no need to have the javascript in the html file create the applet and insert it into the DOM. I think this was mentioned in the link #VGR linked to but it worked for me without it.
Thanks for all the help guys!

calling an exe file inside jar

I am trying to call the "dspdf.exe" inside the jar file where this smartpdf class exists. I plan to extract it to a temp location and delete when program ends. However this doesn't seem to work, any help will be appreciated.
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import org.omg.CORBA.portable.InputStream;
public class smartpdf {
static String url="";
static String output="output.pdf";
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException{
gui mygui = new gui();//gui will call the generate function when user selects
}
public static void generate() throws IOException{
InputStream src = (InputStream) smartpdf.class.getResource("dspdf.exe").openStream();
File exeTempFile = File.createTempFile("dspdf", ".exe");
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(exeTempFile);
byte[] temp = new byte[32768];
int rc;
while((rc = src.read(temp)) > 0)
out.write(temp, 0, rc);
src.close();
out.close();
exeTempFile.deleteOnExit();
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(exeTempFile.toString()+" "+url+" "+output );
//Runtime.getRuntime().exec("dspdf "+url+" "+output);
}
}

You use the wrong InputStream. Change it to java.io.InputStream.

Why do you use org.omg.CORBA.portable.InputStream instead of a java.io.BufferedInputStream`
with as parameters the inputstream from the resource. I mean this:
BufferedInputStream inputstream = new BufferedInputStream(smartpdf.class.getResourceAsStream(...));
The same for your fileoutput stream: BufferedOutputStream
Don't use
class.getResource(...).openStream();
but use
class.getResourceAsStream(...);

Note also (once you've resolved the InputStream issue) that you should be consuming your spawned process stdout and stderr, otherwise the spawned process may block. See this answer for more details.
