At Devoxx France 2013, I attended the conference "Demining an application with JRockit Mission Control" presented by François Ostyn. JRockit Mission Control is a tool for the JRockit JVM providing : a JMX console; a recorder of events happening in the JVM : Flight recorder; and a memory analyser to help find memory leaks : Memleak analyser. In order to maintain a single JVM, Oracle has created the HotRockit project to merge JRockit and Hotspot...

If we are really going to see 50 billion connected devices by 2020, then a standard must be in place to drive adoption. Arguably this week’s most important news in that case was the announcement that standards body OASIS have given their seal of approval to MQTT being the messaging protocol of choice. A newly created OASIS MQTT Technical Committee will now work towards developing a standardised version of the publish/subscribe messaging transport protocol..

I have been trying to fit in lambda expressions in the code I write and this simple example is a consequence of the same. For those totally unaware of Lambda Expressions in Java, I would recommend them to read [my previous post] first before getting into this post. Now that you are familiar with Lambda Expressions (after reading the introductory post), let's go into the simple example which I thought of as a good use of lambda expression...

Editor`s BlogBased on the results of the last-completed Java.net poll, this year's JavaOne in San Francisco, CA is going to be a huge success. Of course, Java.net polls aren't scientific, but it's still surprising when developers overwhelmingly select a single option in a poll. A total of 2146 votes were cast... SpotlightsWith Java 8 due for release six months later than planned, Chief Architect Mark Reinhold has added a few minor features into the pot. In his proposal for delay, Reinhold said extra time would permit the addition of a “select few additional features”, mostly security-focused. Today he announced the JEPs - Java Enhancement Proposals, each representing a new language feature... I just got a 3D Connexion SpaceNavigator which is a kind of 3D input device (mouse/stick). It is cool to use when 3D modeling content for JavaFX but I thought it would be even better if I could navigate my JavaFX 3D scenes using it. I managed to hack some quick code to get it working in JavaFX. Many thanks to the JInput project, they made it super easy. It's super fun so I recorded a video to... Congratulations to the newest Java Champion, Linda van der Pal! She has been a developer since 2002, visiting many conferences to gather and share knowledge. In 2006, she founded Duchess, a network for women interested in Java. She is now a member of the board of the Duchess Dutch chapter, along with Java Champion Régina ten Bruggencate. "We give a voice to women all over the world who work... For many Web-based client-server applications, the old HTTP request-response model has its limitations. Information has to be transmitted from the server to the client in between requests, rather than upon request only. A number of "hacks" have been used in the past to circumvent this problem, for example, long polling and Comet. However, the need for a standards-based, bidirectional and... |
