Java Anti-Patterns

2008, March 6 - 10:25 — laseelan
This page collects some bad code that may not look so obiously bad for beginners. Beginners often struggle with the language syntax. They also have little knowledge about the standard JDK class library and how to make the best use of it. In fact we collected all examples from everyday junior code. And we modified the original code to give it example character and such that it highlights the problems. String concatenation String s = ""; for (Person p : persons) { s += ", " + p.getName(); } s = s.substring(2); //remove first comma

Google Web Toolkit

2007, April 16 - 08:59 — laseelan
GWT The GWT takes an unusual approach to Web application development. Rather than employing the normal separation of client-side and server-side codebases, GWT provides a Java API that lets you create component-based GUIs and then compile them for display in the user's Web browser. Using GWT is far closer to developing with Swing or SWT than the usual experience of Web application development, and it tries to abstract away the HTTP protocol and the HTML DOM model. Indeed, the fact that the application ends up being rendered in a Web browser feels almost incidental.

Struts2 - Step by step guide for the programmers

2007, April 11 - 01:18 — Sarath
This tutorial explains struts 2 with the bare minimum. You won't get lost in the unwanted files under the struts example applications. Pre-requisites for this struts2 tutorial You should be comfortable working with eclipse and WTP. I have used eclipse 3.2.2 myself. Any 3.1 or latter should work, although not tested. You will also need web Tools plugins from the curresponding Calisto release.

Two Search Utilities for Linux

locate If you know the name ( or part of the name ) of the file you are looking for, use 'locate'. You need to install “findutils-locate-4.2.27-12” if this command is missing in your system. locate is an indexing based search program. You should run “updatedb” for proper functioning of locate. Usually this is done using a cron job. locate will be faster than the “find” command, since it is using the index created by updatedb for searching.

CSS - Imageless Rounded Corners

2009, June 19 - 21:00 — Mita
Web designers always needed ronded corners to improve the layout/usability of sites. Typically, two techniques are used: using background images with layered elements or simulating rounded corners with elements inserted via JavaScript. Both techniques have a drawback, requiring extra load time for images to download or for JavaScript to execute. It would be nice if browsers had built in CSS support handling the rounding of corners. Fortunately, CSS3 will include a “border-radius” rule to specify how to handle corner rounding. However, this technique does not work in IE (not even 8).
