Evangelise this!

Wednesday, November 23, 2005 - 09:03 by Wayne Beaton

I think we can probably all agree that 18 pictures of me putting on the shirt is a little much. However, I think this pretty effectively closes bug# 112631. I am a little concerned that my hair looks just a little goofy; but hopefully that’s more a function of being overly critical of one’s own appearance.

Open Budgeting

Tuesday, November 22, 2005 - 12:50 by Mike Milinkovich

We’re currently going through the process of creating an Eclipse Foundation budget for next year. A major part of this process is deciding what programs we want to support.

We would all like to get community feedback on the programs we’re currently thinking about. Better yet, I would love to get some ideas for programs that we haven’t thought about.

Flip through changed files…

Thursday, November 17, 2005 - 21:08 by Wayne Beaton

Here’s a neat and (I believe) completely unintentional feature of Eclipse…

If you’ve added your projects to SCM through Eclipse, it will mark changed files (and directories containing changed files) with an arrow (a “greater-than” sign) in the Navigator and Package Explorer. If you want to quickly flip through the changed folders and files, put focus into the view and hit the “greater-than” sign.

Of course, there is a downside as discussed in bug# 116901.

Ballmer Interview on Enterprise Tools

Thursday, November 17, 2005 - 03:12 by Ian Skerrett

Hats off to Daryl Taft from e-Week for his interview with Steve Ballmer on Enterprise Tools. This is one of the few interviews I have seen that probes Ballmer on the developer tools market.

In the article, Ballmer acknowledges that Eclipse is the main competitor for Microsoft in the tools area. I think everyone agrees there are two main platforms: Eclipse and Visual Studio.

The Eclipse Data Centre

Wednesday, November 16, 2005 - 16:20 by Wayne Beaton

Denis took me down to the data centre today to have a gander at the Eclipse server rack. It’s pretty impressive (a little slice of nerd heaven). The rack is very well organized with all the cables neatly ordered. It’s all very well thought out and implemented.

Open Source Business Models

Wednesday, November 16, 2005 - 11:28 by Ian Skerrett

Lately, there has been a lot of discussion on open source business models. Susan Wu at Apache and Stephen Walli at Optaros have a good posts. Most of the discussion has been around VC funded open source companies and if there is an open source bubble. I think we will see a bubble burst near the end of 2006.

Leanin’ on Working Sets

Wednesday, November 16, 2005 - 09:48 by Wayne Beaton

One of my bigger challenges is managing a workspace packed with many different projects. As an evangelist, I tend to spend a lot of my time experimenting with stuff and the result is a tonne of projects of various sizes. I do try to close the projects that I’m not currently working on. I’ve also imported a bunch of plug-ins as projects so that I can more easily look through them (the PDE makes this dead easy).

He who lives by the quick fix…

Thursday, November 10, 2005 - 10:48 by Wayne Beaton

I write software interatively and almost always top-down. As such , I tend to rely heavily on the refactoring tools provided in the Eclipse JDT. But I’ve really started to lean on the Quick Fix feature.

When you write code from the top-down, you always start with a lot of errors. Ideally, I start by building JUnit unit tests and then spend the rest of my time making them work. I’ve spoken with a lot of folks who try very hard to avoid ever having errors show up when they hit ‘save’; I don’t understand these folks because the errors save you time.

Sortin’ Tables

Thursday, November 10, 2005 - 10:15 by Wayne Beaton

I came across SWT Snippet192 today which shows some cool new features that are being added to Eclipse 3.2.

RCP Case Studies

Thursday, November 10, 2005 - 09:40 by Ian Skerrett

We have created some case studies on how organizations are using Eclipse RCP. The intention is to provide some insight into how these organizations have benefited from using RCP. We are lucky enough to have Alterpoint, NASA, RSS Solutions and SAS agree to provide the information for their case study.
