WeblogsDecember 02 2005Solaris 10 really rocks!: I'm sure in the last few months you either heard or read about how good Solaris 10 is, well so have I. Instead of just passively reading about it, I decide to act and actually take it for a spin myself. I can summarize my experience in one word "Wow". I hope this blog will convince you to do the same: it's time to stop thinking about moving and actually doing in it. Not convinced? Well read on then ... Old and Wise: Years later, they finally "get" Jini... Also:
Ten Moves Ahead: SUN launched a commercial initiative focused to help companies in adopting the Solaris 10. It consist in ten moves that enable companies to acquire much more productivity in the software market and also a bit more of quality in their products. A new perspective in your next business decision. December 01 2005The Aquarium: News from the GlassFish Community: We have started a new blog to highlight interesting news from the GlassFish Community. FOSS.in: Can software be developed the wikipedia way?: Anarchy in software development. More tech tips for GlassFish: This week I found 2 new and very different tech tips using technologies in GlassFish. One describes how to use AJAX and servlets for an autocomplete application and one is on converting POJO to a persistence entity. Both include sample code and instructions to run on GlassFish. DOM vs. JAXB Performance: A key design decision when creating an application that has to process large amounts of XML data is whether to use an API that supports random access or not. APIs that only offer sequential access to the XML data (i.e., the XML infoset) are referred to as "streaming APIs". If an application does require random access to the infoset, two of the most popular options are the use of a DOM API (such as W3C DOM API) or a binding API (such as JAXB). In this blog, I'll kick the tires of the latest DOM implementation from Xerces as well as the latest JAXB 2.0 RI. So how do they stack up? Paving cow paths - Service Component Architecture plans to smooth out the bumps: If you have the time, you might enjoy reading the joint whitepaper from BEA, IBM, Interface21, IONA, Oracle, SAP, Siebel, and Sybase on
Sevice Component Architecture.

November 30 2005The quality team's test execution load and scheduling: The other day I wrote about a patent some of us in the quality team received over a test execution scheduling tool we developed. While the patent and the software is interesting, the thing that's really interesting is what that software enables us to do.
Which is ... because of DTF we are able to schedule execution of a tremendous amount of testing on a wide set of platform combinations. Without DTF we would get lost with the test execution schedule the java quality team faces. I thought it would be good to outline just what that is. The Aquarium: Where the Glassfish lives Monitoring java.net e-mail delivery delay: Since mid-2005, we are starting to observe a large latency in the java.net e-mail delivery. For example, when someone commits a change in CVS, the delivery of the change notification e-mail often gets delayed. When you post to a mailing list, the distribution of that e-mail gets delayed, similarly. So I started monitoring this delay, in an attempt to better understand the problem, and to reduce the impact it causes to our projects.

Façade, gaming redefined: Every now and then, a group of few people come up with a bright idea that shakes the world of video games. Façade might just be one of them and it's Java powered. Proposal for uniform support of third-party components in custom look-and-feels: This posting proposes an approach for uniform support of third-party components in custom look-and-feels. The approach has been successfully adopted in Liquid and Substance look-and-feels. Prime Time: Starter bugs for would-be JDK contributors... also:
