Now that Flex SDK 4 was released, I thought I'd do a series of posts on the differences between Flex 3 and Flex 4 SDKs that will hopefully help migrate your Flex 3 app to Flex 4 or make the transition from SDK 3 to SDK 4 easier. I will be assuming you already know Flex 3 and will concentrate on the new in Flex 4 compared to Flex 3.

This post will serve as the index of the series, and I will be adding links to the different posts to this one as they become available, so come back from time to time to get updated.

Flex 3 had some language tags we are all familiar with like <fx:Binding>, <fx:metadata>, <fx:script> and <fx:style> to name a few.

Flex 4 introduces some new mxml tags you can use when writing mxml classes. They are <fx:Declarations>, <fx:Definition>, <fx:Library>, <fx:Private> and <fx:Reparent>.

I had tow motivations of getting rid of the All view

  1. The All view is quite annoying don't you think? After using Hudson for a while you have tens/hundreds of jobs lined up in a huge list - who needs that right.
  2. I wanted a "hidden jobs section" - Jobs no one but myself (and who ever needs access to it) can see.

 

In order to get rid of it (the All view) simply:

As a big fan of hudson-ci I would like to take a note of the most commonly used hudson plug-ins (at least by me) needed in order to maintain a good build environment.

This list was collected as part of my experience in the last couple of years. I am sure your may differ then mine mine :).

More integration with Subversion:
Integration of the TortoiseSVN client into the PL/SQL Developer IDE (Beta-phase) - http://plsqldev-svn-plugin.tigris.org/

Simple add-in for Delphi and C++ Builder IDE's (a.k.a Borland Developer Studio, a.k.a Turbo Delphi/C++, a.k.a. CodeGear RAD Studio) - adds a menu with the most common TortoiseSVN commands to work with the current project file and an extra command to open an explorer window with current project (to access advanced TortoiseSVN commands). - http://delphiaddinfortortoisesvn.tigris.org/

Another subversion plugin for Borland Developer Studio or some of the Turbos that does not require TortoiseSVN (i.e. works directly with SVN) - http://sourceforge.net/projects/delphisvn/

Microsoft Office - Subversion integration: add-in scripts that invoke TortoiseSVN (Subversion Client) commands - http://code.google.com/p/msofficesvn/

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,

Judging by Java inconsistencies in Google Java related products with Java itself, i think it was coming.

many of us often encounter the need to have a user management/authentication services.

if you're lucky, the users data is stored in an LDAP (unfortunately it's usually Active Directory).

if not, don't try to re-implement an LDAP. don't settle for short term vision. managing users/groups/passwords/policies is a major task that tends to grow during projects lifetime and eventually you spend a lot of time writing code that you shouldn't have.

instead, use OpenDS - a fully functional open source LDAP server from Sun.

In the last couple of weeks, I've been working on building a new architecture of a product for one of our customers. As many other products you probably know, I had to design the object model and be able to persist it to the the DB. So natively, I wanted to use JPA and Hibernate in order to persist the objects into the RDBMS. But then a new requirement came and bumped my face  - “parts of the domain-model and the data-model may be changed dynamically at runtime every now and again, while the system should stay running and without downtime”. The changes for the model can be applied by end users with “admin” role of the product, actually without changing the product itself (no new revision the product should be involved in this process).
