"From Java to Scala, an Android application use case" (Scala TCE 17.5.11)

Here is the presentation given at our last event about moving from Java to Scala.

 

The presentation show how Scala can be used instead of Java to get more concise and modular code gaining productivity and maintenance advantages. It use a simple Android application to show the transition. It touches simple Scala features that make us more productive as well as more advanced ones that make our code better.

 

 

 

 Here's the original presentation:

The 10 minutes AntInstaller and maven guide

The information about the combination of these two goodies is to say the least scarce. I decided to create a minimal small POC project which

Full credit to Ittai who helped me out with this post.

1-Has a self contained Maven POM, which works out of the box without any major modifications.
2-Explicitly invokes AntInstaller via a configuration file while utilizing an antinstaller properties file
3-Is easy to understand and expand.

Without further ado, I shall describe the files involved in the project which was fully build using the one and only Intellij IDEA.

Folder structure is as follows:

|-tikalk-installer
 |---src
 |-----main
 |-------antlib
 |-------installer
 |-------lib

The directory structure was generated using the folowing linux command:

High performance java threading library

Hi,

For a multi-threaded NMS module that handles SNMP outbaound sessions and incomming traps, I am looking for a high level API that utilizes the java 1.5/1.6 threading API.

 

I have encountered several libraries, namely they are:

http://tempus-fugit.googlecode.com/svn/site/documentation/concurrency.html

 

http://code.google.com/p/jetlang/

 

http://prometheus.codehaus.org/overview.html

 

http://code.google.com/p/jconch/

 

Has anyone had real experience with any of these libraries or some other library?

 

I only need the threading module not the SNMP module.

 

Thanks,

GWT ramblings of a Flex developer - localization / I18N

Hello again,

 

This time I want to talk about localization (a.k.a. i18n).

As Flex developers, as I assume you already know, all you have to do is create a *.properties file (say Messages.properties) and in it define keys with localized values, like:

columnHeaderName=Name

 

Then, in the main application mxml, you would define the resource bundles:

	<mx:Metadata>
		[ResourceBundle("Messages")]
	</mx:Metadata>

 

And basically you're done. All you need to do to use it, is use the ResourceManager class to access the localized value of the key.

Simple stuff, right?

 

Not so with GWT...

New language that might eventually replace JavaScript

I don't know how many of you familiar with this new Google attempt to create new technology that might eventually replace JavaScript.

In the following video www.youtube.com/watch you can watch a preview about this technology.

which include among all other regular syntax and rule of programing language new approach for static typing vs dynamic typing. which enable you to have them both in your program.

 

In the video they explain way you may need static typing.

I know there is a big argue around this but i think this video is worth seeing, since  this technology is being developed from the guys who developed V8 engine.

GWT ramblings of a Flex developer - live search component

Recently, I had to create a custom component that does live filtering on data presented in a grid.

 

If you are reading this series, you probably know how this can be done in Flex. If you don't, a quick google search will probably point you in the right direction. Enough to say that in envolves a custom component to get the search criteria and a filter function on the grid's dataProvider ArrayCollection.

 

I was surprised this is relatively straight forward in GWT (using uiBinder and GXT 3.0)
