WeblogsMarch 11 2005Chat with some HotSpot Virtual Machine Experts: Ross Knippel and I will be chatting with people on March 15, 2005 11:00 A.M. PST (19:00 UTC). STR-Crazy: Improving the OpenGL-based Java 2D Pipeline: A new "single-threaded" implementation of the OpenGL-based Java 2D pipeline (available now in the latest Mustang snapshot)... Details on our internal J2DBench application (available now under the JRL)... Other things on my plate for Mustang... 10 years of Java - behind the scenes: Has it really been 10 years since Java was first launched? Do you know the real history behind all those deprecated methods. Read here to find out more Patterns within patterns: Seeing Connections . . . also March 10 2005Want to help create JAX-WSA?: Arun is looking for a couple of good members for the JAX-WSA expert group. Specially from smaller companies and expert individuals. Copying data from Struts ActionForm to ValueObject: Easing the pain: When was the last time you manually copied data from a Struts Form into a Value Object?
Copying data from one object to another is typically achieved with Commons BeanUtils. However if the source and target object have different structure and different attribute names, BeanUtils cannot do much.
That's where you will fnd OTOM framework helpful. OTOM lets you graphically map one class to another in a Swing UI and create napping metadata. The mapping source code can be then generated using an Ant task at build time. Sounds useful..? Take a look - http://otom.dev.java.net Googlezon: What happens when Google merges with Amazon? Helping your users: A java.net conference within a conference . . . also Questions for Sun's head of Software: In this blog, I solicit questions from people that I may ask to the head of Sun's Software Organization, John Loiacano, at a meeting next month. The Same Big Things: The techno-clairvoyants have been strangely quiet of late... so I am left on my own to predict what "The Next Big Thing" is going to be. I think that one "Big Thing" will be to put the "P" in COBOL: a Common Business Process Oriented Language. March 09 2005Rejection Slips: First round of JavaOne rejection notes . . . also March 08 2005Article Thoughts - Dick Grimes's .NET Farewell: Thoughts on Dick Grimes's retrospective on .NET The Best Language for I18n: We've all been taught to implement our software systems in the programming language best suited to the problem we're trying to solve. If you were planning a system that had internationalization and localizability as a top priority, what programming platform would you choose? JXTA 2.3.3b BugDay: JXTA 2.3.3b BugDay is underway. Music to my Ears - Developers - Developers - Developers!: I had the great opprotunity to attend this years EAC and I found the discussions fascinating! Java matures?: When rebels become part of the establishment . . . also Apple Support for Eclipse: Apple had a nice presence at EclipseCon last week, and is showing other signs of support for Eclipse on Mac. Commons-chain: a few tips.: ONJava.com published an article titled "A Look at Commons Chain: The New Java Framework" by Bill Siggelkow. Being a commons-chain user myself for some time now, I thought people might find useful a tip or two. Better JavaDoc on http://java.net: I'm still not satisfied by publishing my JavaDoc by checking it in to CVS on http://java.net. I'd like to ask for an alternative, but am not sure what would be best. March 07 2005The Most Powerful Refactoring?: Guess what the most powerful refactoring is -- Extract Method? Collapse Hierarchy? Remove Middle Man? Tom thinks that one of the simplest refactorings is the most powerful in this blog. JSR 170 - almost here!!: JSR 170 is almost here! How to use quotes in comments to blogs: The software that handles comments to blogs does not like quotes. Use the HTML entities instead... EJB 3.0: two steps ahead, one step backwards?: Should deployment descriptors really be dealt as second-class citzens by the new EJB spec? This may lead to highly unportable EJBs. The Community Side: Building a city . . . also March 06 2005The Javadocs are coming - and that's good!: The Javadocs for JAXB 2.0 and for J2SE 6.0 are now available at Java.Net, and others will follow. Releasing the javadocs of these, ongoing specifications is "a (very) good thing" (tm) Project Jatse - An open source set of tools for teaching, learning and playing with algebra.: Project Jatse, is an open source tool targeted at the mathematics used in high school, although these classes can be extended to cover either more or less advanced math. The project is currently in its initial release on java.net within the Global Education and Learning Community (GELC). Read on for more information on this project, its owner, and what the future plans are.

Initially, technical glitches with my PDA and the wireless network held me back, but as I began to attend sessions and talk with my peers I found myself at a loss to effectively blog my impressions. New Open Source Projects in the Global Education and Learning Community (GELC): We have four new projects in the Global Education and Learning Community (GELC). This time we have a prompter system for English and Turkish, healthcare framework, a simulation of Unix, and a remote desktop controller for a J2ME cell phone. Take a look at the descriptions below and click on the links to join these projects and help out.
Posted by turbogeek at (16:23 PST) | Permalink | Discuss (0) zemberek - Turkish NLP library and Turkish Spell Checking: Zemberek is one of the very interesting projects oriented around the Turkish language and subjects like Natural Language Processing and even spell checking for Turkish. This open source project is something we really like seeing here within the Global Education and Learning Community (GELC) because of its international base. The project leaders themselves are also located in two different countries! I talked to the owners about themselves and the future of their project. Posted by turbogeek at (15:45 PST) | Permalink | Discuss (0) Liber is a research laboratory at Pernambuco's Federal University developing projects about EDMS (Electronic Document Management System), Human-Machine Interface, Information Retrieve and Data Integration. The Liber project within the Global Education and Learning Community has graduated from the incubator so I talked with its owner to find out about himself and the future direction of the project. Posted by turbogeek at (15:29 PST) | Permalink | Discuss (0) Looking for Tapestry Examples? They're here in the Global Education and Learning Community: Tapestry seems to be one of the latest technologies coming out of the Apache/Jakarta community that is gaining steam. Tapestry lets you build web applications with objects, methods and properties instead of URLs and query parameters. But like many open source projects, it needs a little help. In order to fill the documentation and understanding gap, John Reynolds (johnreynolds@dev.java.net) started the TapestryWebComponentExamples project in the Global Education and Learning Community (GELC). Posted by turbogeek at (08:30 PST) | Permalink | Discuss (0) Mailing List or Web Forum? - Have Both!: The version of Jive forums that is used in Java.Net supports "watches" that let you easily follow Forums by email JActionGroup2has several different aspects from rapid development with J2E to using the Spring framework for presentation, an information platform using Spring, Ibatis, and Webwork. It also includes an all-purpose ACL model with AOP , web layer caching with caching (on Webwork). On top of all this, because the owner is in Shanghai, there is a translation of documentation from English to Chinese. Take a look at this great project.
