Editor does not contain a main type

If you get an error "editor doesn't contain a main type" in eclipse,
solution is :
1) Make sure eclipse created the project as Java project.
2) Just create a new Java project and copy your class into the src folder by import the eventual dependencies and adding all the jar files to it.

This should fix the problem.

    It works fine with SRC because all the java files are placed in it, means all the source files are contained in it and as you know "main" is entry point for every program. So, it looks for main at first glance. "SRC" is the by default directory of the project folder to store all the raw files.

Filter packets through jpcap

//Open an interface with openDevice(NetworkInterface intrface, int snaplen, boolean promics, int to_ms) JpcapCaptor captor=JpcapCaptor.openDevice(devices[index], 65535, false, 20); captor.setFilter("tcp && src port 6000", true); It'll filter all the TCP packets with source port number 6000.

Upload a multi-part/image/file using curl

This post is about uploading a file to server using curl. Why I'm writing this post is because of a possible bug in Postman which forced me to look for an alternative to test my upload api. Test if curl is present in system : $ which curl /usr/bin/curl If curl is not present then install it : yum (centos), apt-get (ubuntu), brew (mac) Syntax of the command : curl -F "param1=value" -F "param2=value2" -F "filecomment=file_comment" -F "image=@image_path" server_api Here's an example of the same : curl -F "user_id=12" -F "description": "desc" -F "filecomment=This is an image file" -F "image=@/Users/Desktop/testim.png" localhost:80/myblog/create If using nodeJs, you can fetch the values in fields & files parameters.
