Blog Archive for gsporar during April 2006

Starting late last year and into the early part of this year I spent quite a bit of time helping out on modifying Sun's Java training courses so that they use the NetBeans IDE. I've blogged about this before. As a part of that project, I created some Flash demos of the NetBeans Java editor. The editor got some signficant enhancements in version 5.0 of the IDE and we wanted to highlight...
Yesterday in Geertjan's blog he covered some of the finer points of "branding" an application that is built on the NetBeans Platform. This is the process of replacing all the standard NetBeans icons and names, etc. with your own stuff. It was a timely entry for me, since I'm currently trying to learn enough to create a small sample application for the BOF I'll be doing at JavaOne. But...

Yes, this topic has been discussed quite a bit. It has even turned Geertjan Wielenga into a NetBeans celebrity. If you go to Google and just type in "Geertjan" then you can just click the "I...
For regular readers of this blog, the NetBeans Profiler is old news. But that does not mean the Profiler is sitting still. There will be a few new features in version 5.5 of the IDE, which will hopefully be in beta by JavaOne. In addition, two members of the Profiler development team have recently published documents that provide detailed information on using the Profiler. Maros Sandor...
A long time ago I wrote a blog entry called About that proxy server that discussed how to modify the settings on the application server's JVM in order to go through a proxy server to call a web service. In that entry I mentioned how easy it is to use the NetBeans IDE to test a web service. At NetBeans Day Madrid Andrés González asked me how to get the IDE to do that handy "test call" to a...
