appframework

Thu, 5 Jun 2008 08:12:23 GMT

I've just seen the appframework @ java.net. I'll try this framework and maybe integrate it in our cursus. It seems pretty cool to design Swing based applications. Introduction article. Article at JavaLobby

A friend told me about Renoise, and browsing their site, I click on that page http://www.renoise.com/songs.php?pg=artist&id=19 and I listened to all the titles, really cool! ;-)

No FOSDEM for me this year

Tue, 19 Feb 2008 21:14:35 GMT

I intended to attend to the FOSDEM as past years but it won't be possible :'( I'm too late for too many things and I have to spend my weekends trying to catch with those things.

I wanna attend to the Java DevJam but I removed my name. I hope I'll be able to fix things and meet another time or next year.

Will Alexendria support XMLRPC or SOAP interface

Tue, 4 Dec 2007 10:13:14 GMT

I've just tried the Mylyn Eclipse plug-in and it's really a great plug-in to manage tasks, bugs and so. It's capable to show only files you shoudld be working on, count time you spend on a task and update task note or comment it. I did not try the Bugzilla or Trac connector but the Generic web connector to interact with Sourceforge.

An very good feature would be a better interaction with Sourceforge, but reading bug reports against Mylyn, the blocker is an XMLRPC or a SOAP interface to the Sourceforge bug tracking software. That's why I filed a bug at Sourceforge

Glassfish Installation

Mon, 3 Dec 2007 15:12:00 GMT

I was trying to install Glassfish from upstream binary when I launched ant -buildfile setup.xml I had an error:

Glassfish requires JDK 1.5 or higher, you have java version "1.7.0"

Eclipse with IcedTea on Debian Lenny PowerPC

Sat, 24 Nov 2007 23:14:05 GMT

Eclipse_IcedTea
Mise en ligne par avdyk

I just launch it and was so surprised that I wanna blog about it. I don't know how it works but Eclipse starts as fast enough for me (maybe faster than IBM's JVM, I don't know) and I can't beleive it! :-D

Read previous blog to have instructions to build it (and again thanks to Sun, Gary Benson and all those who make it possible!)

IcedTea is served: openjdk/control/build/linux-ppc

Sat, 24 Nov 2007 22:09:35 GMT

Control build finished: 07-11-24 22:25

Many thanks to Sun and all the RedHat team (especially Gary Benson) we have IcedTea on PowerPC!

Here are the DebianBuildInstructions: http://icedtea.classpath.org/wiki/DebianBuildingInstructions

No new laptop

Thu, 1 Nov 2007 10:17:06 GMT

Someone stole one of my co-worker's laptop. It's really sad, of
course, as you can imagine, no backup! All the staff has been
backuping private data on the next day! Now, there is a bad mood at
work where every trainer lock the door when (s)he teaches :(

Another bad news is the assurance does not work because it was during
the work and there is no infraction. So we'll lost nearly €3000. That
means I can forget my new laptop this year :'(

I'll be looking closer at the work of Garry Benson on the powerpc
port of IcedTea.

As soon as IBM release a jdk 6 for powerpc on linux, I installed it to give a try. I did not get special problems until I installed latest Eclipse (3.3): impossible to install a plugin via the update site!

What I did is to launch Eclipse 3.3 with IBM's jdk1.5, install the plugins and then, restart it with IBM's jdk6.

As soon as I have some time, I'll try to launch it with an up-to-date gcj/jamvm/cacao.
