Last night I had the pleasure of delivering two talks at the Denver Java User Group. The first talk, The Modern Java Web Developer, was inspired by the book The Well-Grounded Java Developer. Ben Evans and Martijn Verburg wrote it as a training guide to get new Java developers up to speed. For my talk, I wanted to do something similar, but for Java Web Developers...

I was only able to attend a portion of Rocky Mountain Oracle Users Group (RMOUG) Training Days 2013, but this was my 13th year attending this conference (and my 11th year presenting). I have always enjoyed meeting and talking to the people who attend even as my interests have diverged from the database-focus that formerly aligned so well for me with the conference. This year's conference...

The update is available now from the Java EE SDK Update Center...

We’ve been making progress in getting JavaFX open sourced. I wanted to take a few minutes to include this information on fxexperience (since many of you aren’t watching the mailing list). Oh, and you might want to read this one, there is some big news at the end of the post ;-) Late last year at JavaOne our Executive VP Hasan Risvi announced that we would be open sourcing all of JavaFX...

Editor`s BlogOur current Java.net poll is related to one of the primary themes from the recent Jfokus 2013 conference. The conference included an Embedded mini-conference. I attended many of those sessions, and will be posting blogs about them in the coming weeks. Our poll asks: "What's your view on the future of machine-to-machine (M2M) interaction, also known as the Internet of Things (IoT)?" Voting... SpotlightsWhenever I encounter a situation where I have to mix a blend of different services and endpoints and apply one or more of the traditional enterprise integration patterns then Apache Camel often is my weapon of choice. I love how easy it is to set up datasources, add routing magic, data transformers, load balancers, content enrichers and enjoy the result. In the following tutorial... Congratulations to the newest Java Champion, Charles Oliver Nutter! Charlie is the main force (along with Thomas Enebo) behind JRuby, a JVM-based Ruby implementation that competes extremely well on features and performance with other Ruby implementations. Charlie was instrumental from day one in ensuring that the new invokedynamic functionality worked well for dynamic languages on the JVM. He... Lets continue the "Heroes of Java" series. Today's interview has been planned nearly since the launch of the series and I knew that it would be a tough one to get. I know Marcus since a few years now and he is always busy providing the best diagnostic tools to Java developers. Thanks for finally joining, Marcus! It is a pleasure to have you here!... When you are building a complex system, barely testing components in isolation is not enough. It's crucial, but not enough. Imagine a car factory that manufactures and imports highest quality parts, but after assembling the vehicle never starts the engine. If your test case suite consists barely of unit tests, you can never be sure that the system as a whole works... |
