I have to admit... I can write a webservice(server) in .Net(with attributes) but not in Java. Why? Because writing one seems so hard... Ah ah ah! That was before! Because of this anxiety I tried to key in google for "webservice annotation" and my expectation for Java didn't fail me. My...

While surfing the Net and unconsciously thinking about my standing in the I.T. market, I came across a link that tells Frequently Asked Questions about Java and Oracle. I'm still browsing through it while making this blog post. What's the fuss? Well, two of the latest job interviews I've...

I just watched appfuse screencast which I downloaded from their homepage . All I can say is, it really rocks! It's cooler than netbeans' CRUD feature and the code it generate seems much cleaner. The security features are a blast as well! I really like it and I'm looking forward to using it...

My friend who still has a connection in our school asked me to host a seminar about Java. It is quite a challenge since Java has quite a steep learning curve compared to languages such as C# and VB and your first programs may not be as rewarding as those two languages I've mentioned. In my own opinion...

I'm bored... One of my officemates who is an experienced QA told me that I should stop whining about our project and do something about my boredome. Well... I had an internal project which I was doing for about 3 months all for the purpose of helping our staff and at the same time be able to learn...

I thought it was gonna be easy comparing user input to existing names in my database(List). To my surprise, there was no matches() pattern available for the String class in Blackberry JDE. I this article here but there are just too many things to look at. I wish they could explain it more in a straightforward...

I didn't know it was so much fun to program for a device you've never programmed before (LIAR!). It was my first time coding for blackberry and of course using my favorite language, Java. My task in this project was simply to replicate the address book that is already existing. The great thing...

Many grown up men dreamed of having their own Robot since their childhood days. Guess what!!? You can have them now! While my friend and I were talking online about our daily programming conversation he got to mention about this site http://mindstorms.lego.com/ OMG! A robot that you can program! Now...

Finally my head banging to the wall is over. Unlike many examples on the internet I was trying to fill a report without using an active java.sql.Connection object. The worst thing I hated and wanted to do in my development is to realize that it's not my java code that has the problem. The problem...

The usual way of binding a commandLink to a command in JSF is in the form <h:commandLink action="#{backingBean.doSomething}" value="Press Me"/> assuming that fixedItem is a managed backing bean mapped in faces-config.xml that has a method signature public String doSomething...

Hmmm... Where is the code selector Keith? Anyway, I'm here to show how a .Net webservice and a Java client(in this case, a method in my JSF project) can inter-operate. Ok, I'm no C# coder. So the code I will be posting here will be a code made for me by a friend. Before we start, I'd like...

I've been doing an internal project for my company. I had this idea of just connecting to our existing HR system to retrieve some employee records instead of creating another database table. Well, far so good. Thanks for Cruizer and Keithrull's advices on how I should implement this system as...

I saw this while doing a research about .NET components and I find it really weird... A Java component getting a tagline from a .NET Developer? Weird. It's like seeing Jack doing an advertisement for McDonalds.

I'm currently suffering from a terrible back pain... I wasn't able to get much sleep before my examination day because I was so nervous and afraid that I would fail. God on the other hand, was very forgiving and in spite all the sins I've done he still answered my prayers(during the exam...

The thing I hate about SQLServer is that it gives me too much headache whenever I use it with Java. Since I already had share of of those from my last company, I already had some precautions. Use jtds driver Enable TCP/IP on default port 1433 For SQLServer 2000 be sure to atleast upgrade to SP4 And many...
