Know how persist document in the Cassandra in a way fairly simple
A new tutorial exercises VisualLangLab using all the examples and techniques in Chapter-3 "A Quick Tour for the Impatient" of the book "The Definitive ANTLR Reference". A new "WildCard" pseudo-token that matches any other defined token has been added to facilitate recovery from grammar errors in the input. Read about the various other improvements that make VisualLangLab even more user-friendly.

In my last blog I’ve introduced JavaFX 2.0 beta, describing an initial port of JavaFX Balls, also in beta stage at that time. Now I finally finish JavaFX Balls 3.
Look ma, no design!
I don’t pretend to be a designer, and the consequence is that when I make a mashup of animation, video and web, that’s the result. Get the source code here.
I’ve added new layers of content...

JavaFX 2.0 is not multiplatform! It can't do subpixel antialiasing!! … these were among the reactions to the first beta releases, that I'm not sure to understand as trolling or simple laziness. These mysteries are usually solved with a simple look at JavaFX's public JIRA issue tracking system. The current implementation is still a beta, not even a feature-complete beta, so there are many...

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.

Use Findbugs on code to remove bugs cheaply before bugs are detected using more expensive techniques or before finding them in production !
This article presents a tutorial for implementing task-focused development using NetBeans IDE with the NBTaskFocus project. Mylyn was the popular project providing task-focused interface for Eclipse and got included in the main Eclipse distribution. These features were in a lot of demand for NetBeans IDE and NBTaskFocus project attempts to provide some of the features in demand. We can now work on our tasks in a better way in NetBeans IDE also using the NBTaskFocus modules.
VisualLangLab parsers support all (present & future) JVM languages
It’s after JavaONE and as promised, here is the answer to the performance puzzler with a stack trace.

We've just published a new article by Sanjay Dasgupta, administrator of the java.net VisualLanLab project. The article, titled "VisualLangLab - Grammar without Tears," introduces the tool's design, logic, and capabilities...

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.

Task Focused Interface has become an accepted concept in the current programming paradigms. Mylyn made a breakthrough to introduce the Task Focused Interface in Eclipse world. Cubeon introduced the Task Focused concepts for NetBeans IDE, with many integrations with third party issue databases like JIRA. I was searching for a Task Focused Interface for NetBeans whch will track my opened files automatically in my current task. I ended creating one such feature in project NBTaskFocus.

Eclipse is famous IDE in em Java, follows the open source model. The Eclipse project was stated by IBM that does the first version, then donated like open source for the community. The begin costs was above 40 millions. Nowadays, the Eclipse is one of the most used worldwide. Has important feature how the SWT uses and not the Swing, there are too many plug-ins...
The second edition of Java Magazine (November/December) will go out in few days. In the Part 2 of the my article, you will see in detail how to use JSON to handle the response returned to the HTML5 client.
The first Part 1 of my article published in the first edition of Java Magazine (available here ) has shown how you can create and deploy quickly a Java EE application that uses RESTful Web services with NetBeans.

We are moving almost everything from SF.net, our own server UGForge, and our own Nexus to Java.net

The Early Draft for JAX-RS 2.0 (JSR 339) has been submitted for publication. I plan to use this blog to highlight the features in the new spec, and in this entry I'll start with the most requested feature: the Client API. This API can be broadly divided into 4 areas: the fluent API, the generic interface, configuration and asynchronous support. In this blog entry we'll explore the fluent API.
