Some news…

jeje — Sat, 02 Feb 2008 08:32:23 +0000

It’s been a while since my last update on this blog. The main reason is that I’m now blogging most of the Amazon Web Services and IntelliJ plugins related content to a new blog call Elastic Grid Blog. As said on this blog, Dennis Reedy (Rio founder) and I have been selected to a BoF session at [...]

jeje — Mon, 27 Aug 2007 18:53:17 +0000

I have updated the Berkeley DB (Java Edition) plugin for IntelliJ IDEA. This new version introduces the ability to browse stores by primary keys and secondary keys (you have to click on the index you’d like to browse). Minor changes includes: secondary keys now displayed with cardinality and related entity information, all entity fields are now displayed.

New major version of the JiBX plugin for IntelliJ

jeje — Sat, 28 Jul 2007 09:06:54 +0000

I have updated the JiBX plugin. This new version introduces: navigation between the XML binding file and the corresponding Java code (at least on a class and field level), errors annotations (for example if your binding if broken and mapping to a missing Java field), refactoring (your binding will automatically be updated when you rename your Java field). As this [...]

JiBX plugin for IntelliJ IDEA version 1.1.5

jeje — Thu, 12 Jul 2007 07:38:47 +0000

I’ve updated the JiBX plugin late yesterday. This new version should work for version 5, 6 and 7 (EAP). The biggest improvement is error reporting. Now you have direct access to the right place in your binding file where the error occurred.

Useful trick for Rio command-line tools (known as CLI)

jeje — Sun, 03 Jun 2007 09:57:44 +0000

I’ve always wondered how the Rio CLI tools could support up & down keys in order to recall previous commands. I found a solution on the Berkeley DBXML FAQ: use rlwrap. So, instead of running “rio”, run instead “rlwrap rio”. Simple, but useful

Google Developer Day 2007

jeje — Thu, 31 May 2007 14:20:48 +0000

I’m in Paris, France, at the Google Developer Day 2007. This day has started a few hours ago (2pm, Paris time). So far, I’ve been watching a presentation on GData API. Although the speakers are nice, I was a bit disappointed because the talk was too much a high-level session. I expected some information not available on [...]

Integration between Tapestry 5 and Jini

jeje — Thu, 15 Mar 2007 22:16:00 +0000

I am a big fan of Tapestry 5. This version is a huge improvement over version 4. Recently some integration were committed for support of Spring and Hibernate. I decided that I should spend a bit of time understanding how they were written so that I could write a tapestry-jini integration module. Two hours later, I have [...]

Now it’s even easier to install Rio and code with Jini

jeje — Wed, 28 Feb 2007 19:55:42 +0000

I have just updated the Rio installers. This new version updates code to the latest version of Rio as of today. But what is even more interesting is that now by default Jini is bundled so you don’t need to install Jini before installing Rio. Let me know if you experience any issue or if there are [...]

jeje — Wed, 07 Feb 2007 22:29:41 +0000

I’ve taking a bit of time tonight in order to update the Maven 2 plugin. This new version uses JiBX 1.1.3. The version of the plugin matches the one of the JiBX distribution, so do not forget to update the version of the plugin you are using.
