Authoring in Eclipse

Tuesday, January 17, 2006 - 10:07 by Wayne Beaton

Apologies to Chris. I had John Arthorne’s name in my head as I was typing this and erroneously gave John credit where it was due Chris. Somebody please call me an idiot.

Chris Aniszczyk and Lawrence Mandel are taking a stab at revolutionizing the way that Eclipse articles are authored. And they’re taking a novel approach: why not use Eclipse to author articles about Eclipse?

Graphical Modeling Framework Article

Tuesday, January 17, 2006 - 10:00 by Wayne Beaton

Authors have been very busy this month. Yesterday, Frederic Plante’s article, “Introducing the GMF Runtime” was added to the Eclipse Corner Articles site. Oddly enough, in this article Frederic introduces the GMF runtime.

Eclipse Forms Article

Monday, January 16, 2006 - 10:58 by Wayne Beaton

Earlier today, I posted an article on Eclipse Forms by Dejan Glozic onto the Eclipse Corner Articles site. It’s pretty powerful stuff; using the Forms API, you can build user interface components that look and feel “browser-like”. As the article suggests, forms are probably best suited for views and editors (not dialogue boxes), but you can use them anywhere it makes sense for you.

Eclipse Awards

Monday, January 9, 2006 - 15:21 by Wayne Beaton

I reviewed the nominations for the Eclipse Awards today and there seems to be only moderate activity. In fact, I only see eight nominations for top contributor. There’s a lot more contributors out there than that.

Today, I’m going to indulge myself with a brief discussion of my New Year’s Day activities.

Storing server data locally

Sunday, December 18, 2005 - 22:22 by Wayne Beaton

I’m working my way through the list of questions posed during the Eclipse RCP webinar.

One listener asked about a dozen questions (and I’m hoping to get to them all, really), including this one:

When talking about the user working offline with the intelligence in the application – where and how should the data be cached? What mechanism would you suggest for synchronisation and beyond that for handling resolutions?

Development Methodology

Saturday, December 17, 2005 - 19:16 by Wayne Beaton

I’m working my way through the list of questions posed during the Eclipse RCP webinar.

One listener asked:

What methodology do you propose people use?

I just flew back from JavaPolis and boy are my arms tired

Saturday, December 17, 2005 - 18:49 by Wayne Beaton

Sorry about the lame joke, but my brain is also tired. I started my week in Antwerp, Belgium at the JavaPolis 2005 conference. I had a good time at the conference and am looking forward to attending again next year.

JavaPolis

Tuesday, December 13, 2005 - 05:36 by Wayne Beaton

The Eclipse Foundation is at JavaPolis in Antwerp, Belgium this week. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to see very much of the conference outside of what we’re doing, because we’re pretty busy. We hosted a “Plug-in Bazaar” yesterday which was pretty cool. Many plug-in providers (for various products, including Eclipse) presented their wares to whomever they could attract to their table. While it went well, we did learn some lessons.

Is Java a slow language?

Sunday, December 11, 2005 - 05:39 by Wayne Beaton

I had a lot of questions during the webinar that I co-delivered a few days back, and I’d really like to answer them all. I’m going to do my best.

One of the listeners asked:

A lot of non-Java-savvy people still have the perception of Java as a slow language – they feel they’re giving up performance for more morally correct concepts such as platform independance, etc… What kind of real world performance are we seeing in the RCP (and specifically SWT widgets)?
