The next entry of the Swing in a better world serial
Last night I dreamed seemingly all night about NetBeans 7.1, the JavaFX 2.1 Developer Preview, the JDK 6 and JDK 7 installations on my CentOS Linux system, Java threads, the JDK 7 Fork/Join framework, closures...
Information on the new SwingX 1.6.3 release.

Many things changed from java 1 in 1995 at java 7 2012. Learn about this reading this article.
Open JDK
Recently, I got a chance to build OpenJDK 8 on a Windows 7 host. Thanks to a detailed article "YAOJOWBI - Yet another OpenJDK on Windows Build Instruction" on http://weblogs.java.net/blog/simonis/archive/2011/10/28/yaojowbi-yet-ano..., I avoided many problems that could have cost me several hours to probe. Though it is almost complete and comprehensive to most users, I still came...
Old friends may want to gather in Brussels the weekend of February 4-5 for FOSDEM.
JCP
I was surprised to read the JCP Program Office's recent announcement that AT&T, Samsung, and SK Telecom have all lost their Executive Committee (EC) voting rights. The reason? Well, the JCP EC meeting held earlier this month was the second held under the new JCP 2.8 EC Standing Rules. Under those rules...
I will talk at FOSDEM, Paris Jug and Devoxx France. See you there.
Java Tools
We coax Rhino (an elusive, misunderstood, and ignored member of the Java ecosystem) into a mind meld, giving it access to the JVM's thoughts, experiences, memories, and knowledge; and take it where no rhino has gone before!
I think that Maven is a great tool for development. But it can be used for more. For instance, I've just prepared things so that starting from a clean room you can try out my lightweight CMS, NorthernWind, by just invoking a couple of commands. They will install and run NorthernWind, an embedded server and an example site. More information at the NorthernWind blog.
Today I decided it was past time to reorganize the slides in the performance testing section of the course. I added a number of new diagrams and charts to help organize the materials and then I went back and started to review some of the definitions that I was using. First up was the question; what is performance testing and how is it related to load testing
I mentioned the idea to use Wordle as an execution profiler while presenting the profiling section of my performance tuning course in Paris last December. The idea was seeded by presentation that Neal Ford did a few years ago in which he used Wordle to expose the vocabulary of a Java application. Instead of vocabulary, I wanted to see if Wordle could be used to visualize an applications dominate behavior.
A preview of the pure Java version of VisualLangLab is now available. The GUI, and other characteristics, are virtually identical to the previous version, but the JAR file is very much smaller as it does not bundle the Scala API jars.
NetBeans
This article has the main objective show a little example for persist information in Cassandra using java.
For demonstrated the persistence with Cassandra will used the Easy-Cassandra, a framework open source for use this SGBG in an easy mode.

The latest Java.net poll suggests that NetBeans users have been quick in their adoption of the NetBeans IDE 7.1 Release. A total of 802 votes were cast in the poll, with the following results...
Java Patterns
You want JAXB to unmarshal singletons? You already spent lots of time coding rather complex workarounds applying XmlAdapters and afterUnmarshal callbacks? The solution is astonishingly simple!
Java Enterprise
In the previous articles we have concentrated on testing using Glassfish. But can you use the same
recipe to do testing on Weblogic. The answer is YES, but ..... Yea you know there is always a caveat.
First make sure you have Weblogic installed properly. Note I did the testing with the latest 12c version,
so your mileage may vary.
Download the attached zip file again and follow along. In...
We added an accordion demo to our JSF demos. See it in action over here. If you have suggestions. Let us know!
In the previous article we described how to do testing with multiple containers. But since joining
the Glassfish team I have wondered how can I test applications against different versions of JSF on Glassfish?
As it turns out it is actually quite straightforward. This blog entry shows you how to do it. It will
allow you to test using a 2.1.2 version and up. All by using properties passed in...
