The latest shiny new toy in the social networking area seems to be twitter. If you haven’t heard of twitter, think of it as really small blog posts (140 char limit) and the ability to follow other people’s ‘tweets’. I’ve spent the last couple of months participating in twitter. I...

Le build d’intégration 3.4 de vendredi a, comme prévu —bien qu’avec un peu de retard−, été taggé “ RC1“. Vous pouvez le télécharger à l’adresse suivante : http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/S-3.4RC1-200805161333/index.php. La liste des bugs corrigés (pour les projets qui la tiennent à jour en tout cas…) est ici. The post Eclipse 3.4...

I am excited to announce a new event called ‘ Eclipse Day at the Googleplex‘ to be held June 24 at the Googleplex in Mountain View, CA. It will be a half day event that features technical presentations on various Eclipse projects (Equinox, ATF, ECF, CDT and Mylyn) and using...

Voici le petit bout de code, très simple, qui permet de récupérer la version d’un plug-in. [sourcecode language=’java’] Activator.getDefault(). getBundle().getHeaders(). get(org.osgi.framework.Constants.BUNDLE_VERSION) ; [/sourcecode] Pour manipuler de manière un peu plus poussée ce numéro de version, la méthode org.osgi.framework.Version#parseVersion(String) est votre amie. Vous pourrez dès lors, sur l’objet Version que vous...

Just finishing up this years edition on JavaOne. Some thoughts… JavaFX was definitely the main message from Sun. The Sun keynote was full of JavaFX demos showing spinning pictures. It reminded me of 1998 spinning Java logos in applets. Sun appears to want to go head to head with Adobe...

DZone has just released the first set of their Refcardz, including a ‘ Getting Started with Eclipse‘. It looks like a great resource for anyone starting in Eclipse. Nitin from Dzone was kind enough to drop off some of the Refcardz for the Eclipse booth at JavaOne; they proved to...

Ça y est, Eclipse 3.4 est à nos portes puisque le milestone qui sort aujourd’hui est le 7ème du nom ; ce qui, dans le cycle de développement Eclipse, veut dire que toutes les nouvelles fonctionnalités ont été implémentées ( feature complete) ! Les prochaines versions livrées seront des releases...

We are organizing another series of Eclipse Demo Camps. Last Fall we had 30 Eclipse Demo Camps and they turned out to be great community events. This time the demo camps are to celebrate the Ganymede release. We already have events organized in 15 cities but I’d like to see...

Two weeks ago the Glassfish team announced their upcoming v3 version would be running on OSGi. Now Ludovic has a demo of Glassfish v3 running inside of Eclipse; I gather running on Equinox. Not sure about other people but this just seems so cool for many different reasons. Hopefully I...

Last year at JavaOne, the highlight for me was the Redmonk Unconference. It was a great venue to network, learn and discuss issues relevant to the open source community. The guys at Redmonk do a great job of bringing together the technologist and the business/marketing types into one place. I...
