  • Patent number: 10779643
    Abstract: A cabinet system includes a frame at least partially defined by a plurality of vertical legs and a shelf defining a first plane and supported by the plurality of vertical legs. The vertical legs extend transverse to the first plane. A countertop is supported by the plurality of vertical legs. A body panel is coupled to the frame and has a plurality of apertures. A door is coupled to the frame and operable to selectively provide access to the shelf. The door has a plurality of apertures. Posts are coupled to the frame and extend transverse to the first plane. Each post of the plurality of posts is configured to extend through (i) an associated aperture of the plurality of apertures in the body panel to couple the body panel to the frame or through (ii) an associated aperture of the plurality of apertures in the door to couple the door to the frame.

  • Publication number: 20050160153
    Abstract: A method for enabling direct addressing of specific wsdl and/or xsd files within a web services application containing multipart files with relative imports. A virtual addressing scheme allows the files to be identified within a virtual/wsdl/directory that is appended to the endpoint URL. The desired filename is then placed after the virtual directory. When the web container of the web service application receives the endpoint request with the virtual directory, the container recognizes it as a file request and locates the requested file within the endpoint path (or sub-directory within the path). The file is then returned to the requestor along with the SOAP address.

  • Patent number: 6330711
    Abstract: A method and apparatus providing a data processing system for managing rules in a program in a Java operating system. The program is morphed such that the program becomes a dippable program. A rule change is identified for the program. A dip is created for the program, wherein the dip incorporates the rule change. The dip is added to the dippable program, wherein the rule change is incorporated into the dippable program. In the instance in which the program is not in a form suitable for morphing, an interface may be added to encapsulate the program and allow the program to be compatible with Java objects.
