    editor
    5 Nov 2009 | 5:57 am
    We've just published Eric Spiegelberg's new article, "Using a Service Delegate to Avoid MVC Controller Bloat". Eric is a Minneapolis-based Java EE consultant. This is the sixth article he has contributed to java.net. In his new article, Eric addresses the problem of "controller bloat" -- by which he means the tendency for code that does not belong in the controller in an MVC application to creep into it, as developers rush to get the job done, take what appear to be short cuts, and generally get lax about rigorously applying the principles of separation of concerns. while the creators of…

Apps are automatically parallelized for scale; users can take their existing Java, C, C++, C#, .NET, Perl and Python applications, MapReduce-enable them and push them down into the data. read more

    Chris Gross
    OSGi is taking over the Java world. The modularity features offered by OSGi have become so popular that it seems like all the major Java enterprise applications and frameworks have adopted OSGi or have plans to. Products and frameworks such as Eclipse (and therefore Flex Builder), Spring, Websphere, Guice, Weblogic, and JBoss all use OSGi. Even organizations such as NASA have adopted OSGi. So what is OSGi and why is it so popular? This article will try to answer those questions and introduce you to Potomac - the new OSGi inspired framework for Flex.

    Have you been testing your JavaFX knowledge by playing the Tech Test Train? If so, you might be interested to know that it has been updated. Although, I should point out that when I tried to play it on Mac OS X 10.5.8 it crashed as soon as I pressed the "Play the Game" button (Edit: Working fine on the Mac now..). I did however have better luck with Windows XP. The new version now allows your score to be carried over across the different routes allowing for a chance to get a grand total of 27,000 points. It's also had some performance tweaks. You can play the game on the JavaFX website.

  • Installation and Configuration for OpenLDAP

    The OpenLDAP directory server is a mature product that has been around (in one form or another) since 1995. All of the major Linux distributions include the OpenLDAP server, and many major applications, both, Open Source and proprietary, are directory aware, and can make use of the services provided by OpenLDAP. And yet the OpenLDAP server seems to be shrouded in mystery, known and understood only by the gurus and hackers. This book is meant not only to demystify OpenLDAP, but to give the system administrator and software developer a solid understanding of how to make use, in the practical…

  • Starting System Processes Through JAVA Exec Command

    Vaibhav Pandey
    27 Oct 2009 | 5:30 am
    Java is capable of executing threads by starting and running them. Java Programming language also provides you with the ability to start the heavyweight system processes. Threads are lightweight processes and can be called as a subprocess. Executing or starting a System process is completely different than executing a thread. Java. lang provides a method exec() which is used to name and run the process. The exec() method returns a process object and is invoked on Runtime instance. Runtime is an abstract class whcih can be instantiated as the following: Runtime rt = Runtime. getRuntime();…
  • Understanding The Importance Of Strings

    13 Oct 2009 | 6:14 am
    Strings are very important part of any programming language. Same is the case with Java. There are so many String methods in String class and it will become difficult to explain all of them. I am mainly focusing on some methods which are worthful to beginners. I will also explain some basics about Strings here which makes Strings easy to understand. So, lets begin. Basics about Strings in Java 1.You can create Strings in various ways:- a) By Creating a String Object String s=new String(”abcdef”); b) By just creating object and then referring to string String a=new String();…
  • Making Efficient Use Of Available Memory With JVM

    Vaibhav Pandey
    21 Sep 2009 | 7:57 am
    Strings are undoubtedly the most important part of any programming language. The same is the case with Java programming Language. Handling String objects in memory is a demanding task. One of the key goals of any good programming language is to make efficient use of available memory. As the size of our application grows the size that string literals occupy also becomes larger. Sometime memory may overflow due to high number of string literals used. There may be literal redundancy in the memory. In case of Java programming Language JVM does all memory related tasks specially related with…
  • Building Variable Shadowing In Java

    Vaibhav Pandey
    1 Sep 2009 | 6:07 am
    There are many ways so that we can shadow our variables. One way is to hide an instance variable by shadowing it by local variable. Shadowing happens when we redecalre a variable that has already been declared somewhere else in the program. The effect of shadowing is to hide certain variables in such a way that it may look as though you are using the hidden variable,but you are actually using shadowed variable. Typically it happens by accidents which returns some hard to find bugs,and there are reasons where you wish to use variable shadowing. I assume you have no knowledge of Shadowing…
  • VMware’s Acquisition Of SpringSource Raises The Competitive Bar

    18 Aug 2009 | 6:28 am
    Let me start with a few disclaimers.  By virtue of working in the IBM WebSphere Application Server team, I compete with SpringSource. I know, and like, several of the key people at SpringSource.  I’m happy that their hard work paid of with such a large exit. While I compete with SpringSource, I’m excited that this acquisition will raise the bar for vendors that I care about, and ultimately, customers will benefit the most. There has been a lot of analysis about VMware’s acquisition of SpringSource.  By in large, the analysis has taken the vision of Clouds and PaaS laid…

    Put an accountant, a lawyer, an MBA and a software engineer together into a room... Sounds like the lead-in to a bad joke, but it's the exercise that the Java Store team has been living through for the past several months. At the PayPal conference today Eric Klein did an announcement and demo of the next phase in the Java Store's development. We've been working with PayPal on this for some time, using their new PayPal X platform. It always amazes me how complex it is to deal with all the details of global finance. And even so, the store today only handles US issues. But the framework is in…

    Yet Another Happy Birthday Intertubes!! Today marks 40 years of the internet, although there's some debate as to the actual date. I consider myself a latecomer: I didn't get my first real internet email address until 1977, C410JG40@CMUA. I was "jag" on various Unix systems before then, but it wasn't until 1977 that the ARPAnet and email really took over my life. I soon realized that the only real-world friendships I kept up with were folks that I could send email to. I disappeared from my brother and sister's lives until they got email addresses 20 years later. Of course now it's gotten to…

Connected Edition This is the next generation Java Card technology: JDK6 Compatible VM: Except for floats, it support class file version 50.

  • Map browser on kenai

    jag
    20 Oct 2009 | 12:03 pm
    I ripped the little demo map browser component out of my Oracle OpenWorld slides and moved it to kenai as a new project called OSMBrowser. Not very polished, more of a starting point for someone motivated to play :-) Thanks to the crew at the Open Street Map project for a nice database and tile server. A Thing of Beauty. Update: I fixed the busted .jnlp file, so it can be run.
  • My slides from Oracle Openworld

    16 Oct 2009 | 10:21 am
    Several folks have asked for copies of my slides from Oracle Openworld. Unfortunately, there's no printable form of them, since I did them as a JavaFX app. You'll find them at http://fxslideshowtest.kenai.com which will launch the app (with all it's rather large images) via JNLP. If you're curious about the sources, they're on kenai. The code is pretty ugly: I just slapped it together. I'm not proud :-) The code for the map browsing component is in there too. It uses the tile server from openstreetmap.org (Click and drag with the mouse to move, scroll wheel to zoom). I kinda like the map…

    As many of you may know, user interface design is a passion of mine. I want software that both looks pretty and acts well. I've had lots of ideas on the topic, often bleeding over into art and traditional design, in addition to usability. After thinking about it for a couple of years I've finally decided to create a blog dedicated to the topic: www.joshondesign.com At Josh On Design I'll be writing on art, design, and usability, but with a twist. There are plenty of design sites that focus on professional designers. My site will focus specifically on design for software engineers. It's an…

    One of the big announcements at JavaOne was the Java Store. I'm especially proud of it because I've been secretly working on the project for the past few months. Since the announcement I've gotten a lot of questions on the store and how it relates to the rest of the Java ecosystem. To supplement the excellent FAQ I thought I'd answer a few questions. What's the one paragraph summary of what you've announced? We have announced the private beta of the Java Store, a desktop client to let people browse and purchase desktop Java applications, and the open beta of the Java warehouse where…
  • Top 5 Most Important Features in JavaFX 1.2

    Technically I'm on vacation this week so don't mention this post to my boss. I simply couldn't wait to blog about cool stuff we put into JavaFX 1.2. Shhhhh! Lots of JavaFX related things were announced at JavaOne, many of them concerning future products and other bits that aren't released yet. This post won't cover any of those. There were so many things discussed at JavaOne that I'm afraid some of the key points of the new JavaFX might have been missed. In this post I'm only going to cover the things that you can actually download and work with today. I'm talking only about the new version…

    I've just arrived in SF for my fourth JavaOne conference. Despite the usual chaos this year's prep has gone very well. We have a ton of new things to show you. Most importantly we have the new release of JavaFX. As previously noted it has REDACTED, and REDACTED as well as greater REDACTED to make your apps run. Which, as you can imagine, is totally awesome. And of course the big news is support for REDACTED and REDACTED, as you can see in the screen shot below: Next up is the project I've been working on for many moons: the Vector project, most likely to be renamed the Java Store, as covered…
  • Want a Job Coding Extreme Swing?

    joshy
    26 Mar 2009 | 9:24 pm
    I don't normally post about job offers, but this one is simply too cool to pass up. The guys at Limewire are looking to hire a new Swing developer. For those of you who don't know, Limewire is the premier peer-to-peer file sharing client on the Interwebs. These guys have been doing killer Swing GUIs for a long time and even inspired some of the hacks the book Chris and I wrote. If hired, you'd get to work on their audio player and develop a new video player for the Limewire client. Sounds like a dream job. All of the details are on their website; in a wiki, of course.

    7 Nov 2009 | 1:54 am
    Having a correct combination of front-end Apache HTTPd Reverse Proxy server and back-end Tomcat hosted CAS was not as easy as it seems for me. I could have used mod_auth_cas but decided to relay only on jk based proxy. Here is my config: Apache HTTPd 2.2 Apache Tomcat 6.0 CAS 3.3.1 Balancer (mod_proxy + proxy_ajp + proxy_balancer) deployment model: Front-end machine (ip: 192.168.183.3) running httpd on ports 80, 443. CAS back-end app running tomcat on ports 18180 (http) and 18109 (ajp) Another back-end app on the same box which uses CAS and runs on ports 18080 (http) and 18009 (ajp) Steps: 0.
