I just stumbbled uppon an very interesting talk with Sun Microsystems’ Director of Web Technologies Tim Bra, abour the future of the Java Platform. They also mention stuff about REST/SOAP, SOA, Grails/Grails/Django etc. Is’s interesting to see how “bigshots” view these technologies.
Tkat said, if you have 30min to spare, or just want to play it [...]

There is sometimes the need to kill some JVM, I usually use “killall java” and that works fine as long as that’s in fact what I want – kill ALL. But let’s say i just want to kill Tomcat and not my IDE? The below method works quite well in such an situation:

Yup, it’s time for another JavaCamp “review”.
This time I was able to attend the whole thing, and didn’t miss the pizza – well, I just got one slice since we were so busy talking about Google’s Android with other programmers… ;-) The agenda was shorter than last time, but it still “had it’s moments”:

I am currently working on a simple but still quite fun/interesting (as is any project with a new framework :-)) webapp using Google Web Toolkit (it’s basically Google’s JEE framework for creating RIA). The webapp is an online crossword generator. The goal is to provide crosswords online and allow users solving them online with a [...]

Yeah! It’s time for another great JUG meeting. I’ll have to go quite far this time, as it’ll be in Poznań and that’s about 7h by train from Cracow… but at the very moment I saw who was going to be there, that is: Geertjan Wielenga (whose blog I’ve been reading for a long long [...]

Under the lead of Dr Marek Długosz me and 2 of my friends will be tackling the topic of “MySQL Data Storage Engine Comprehension – with focus on Automatics use cases”. It’s [...]

Yup, following my recent trend to spend all the money from birthdays and other occasions where I get my hands on some cash on books/meetings/training, for Christmas I ordered two great (and more or less up to date (it’s about 2.5 and not 1.x as the books that I already have)) books about Java.

Today another Java User Group Meeting (more info) was held… This time at my university (AGH – University of Science and Technology). :-)
I wasn’t there from the beginning as I had some work to do, but I managed to get there after the “pizza-pause” and listen to:

Miroslav Kopecky, talking about Matlab in Java (in English).

It [...]

This week I went to the “12th Śląsk Java User Group Meeting” in Gliwice (12 Spotkanie Śląskiej Grupy Użytkowników Java) (which is like 90min away from my hometown Cracow), but it was really worth the ride! Sadly I got there 30min late, and thus missed the intro but the rest of the presentation was really [...]
