Auto install of Java on Ubuntu

We recently had an issue on our appliances for builds that was causing a problem when it came time to install Java via apt-get on Ubuntu.

Found this gem that should save a lot of time:

sudo sh -c ‘echo sun-java6-jre shared/accepted-sun-dlj-v1-1 select true | /usr/bin/debconf-set-selections’;

sudo apt-get install —yes sun-java6-jre;

Change in 'angular.compile()'

In our app we load in partial GUI's via OSGi bundles that angular then compiles/bootstraps after the pull from the bundle via calls similar to:

$('#eiAuditUI').load(eiAuditURL, function(responseText, textStatus, XMLHttpRequest) {
    if (textStatus == 'error') {
        $('#eiAuditUI').html('Unable to contact the Audit Tool.
');
    } else {
        angular.compile($('#eiAuditUI'))();
    }
});
$('#eiAuditUI').show();

This was with angular up to 0.10.3. As of 0.10.4, needed to apply '$apply()' to the compiled element, since angular.compile does not call $apply on the linked scope.

Being that we are bootstrapping the partial being pulled in itself, we need to now append the calls to compile from:

angular.compile($('#eiAuditUI'))();

to:

angular.compile($('#eiAuditUI'))().$apply();

What this was causing was that when the scope was called/compiled, the rendering didn't happen as was previously, unless some even happened, such as starting to fill out a form or moving a select list.

With the above change - everything back to normal.
