Good news, everyone! No, Futurama isn’t on the air, yet. But soon. Anyway, I’m still here, albeit a little busy. However, in one of those few late night things I do, I was able to finish up a little project. If you didn’t know, there’s a site that stores your icons and lets weblogs put […]
Google has just released the beta version of the Google Web Toolkit (GWT). The GWT is a Java-based toolkit that lets you create AJAX-enabled pages using Java. The main idea of the toolkit is that once you create your app following the GWT API, you will then compile your Java classes into Javascript and HTML, […]
Well, it seems that the series of articles comparing all the different frameworks using Simon’s initial set of requirements is expanding. This time, Geert Bevin, the creator of RIFE, has done the same thing, using his own framework. I’ve always found RIFE very interesting, but a little daunting for new users. It uses a lot […]
UPDATE: I changed the BlogApplication code based on feedback from Igor (one of the Wicket developers). It should now work against the latest trunk from the Subversion repository. Well, my last entry had some very good feedback from you. It seems people really are interested in learning Wicket, and someone even told me that his […]
In this article, I introduce the Wicket web framework by using the same comparison requirements as the ones posted by Simon Brown on his Java.net blog.
I started getting some spam comments on my blog a couple of weeks ago, at a steady increasing rate, which was getting very annoying. Fortunately, I found a very simple way to add captcha validation to the add comments form. Unfortunately, Glen’s solution involved patching the original pebble source and redeploying pebble. There is a […]
While reading the morning news, I found an entry on JavaLobby talking about a new Open Source Collaboration system written in Java. The Zimbra Collaboration Suite is a Java-based, AJAX-enabled web application that can do email, contacts, calendar, etc. I used the demo and I’m very impressed. I see that they have borrowed many concepts […]
Finally, after using 4.0M2 for a while, I am upgrading to the GA (General Availability) version of MyEclipse Enterprise Workbench. Among the new features that comes with this release, I’m most interested in their UML Perspective, their JSF support and the new Visual Web Designer. You can check all the new features here. For only […]
I haven’t been able to continue my regular posting streak because I’ve been really busy at work. Which in a sense, it’s a good thing. I’ve been doing a lot of Struts, Spring, Tiles, etc. stuff, and hopefully I’ll be able to put some tips and tricks that I come up across with.
One of the things that I’ve come up across with, is the correct way to use Tiles. I was having a lot of troubles getting some information from a tile component.
I just upgraded my website to Pebble 1.9, and after some serious snafu on my part (you should clean your work directory for better results), it is finally running. I like the new features, and everything seems to be in working order. Oh, and I will do the MT import soon, as it now comes […]
