Fancy one more Java cup? Friday, October 31, 2008. In search of the perfect API (part 2). This is the second installment of a sort series about the evolution of the API of DesignGridLayout. Although DesignGridLayout is used as an example, this series is more general and its goal is to show how you can improve the API of any library, and what pitfalls you should avoid. In the first installment. Release 0.9 (heavy refactoring of both API and implementation). A non-grid row (center, left or right). I have f...

Fancy one more Java cup?: Bean properties without hard-coded names?

http://jfpoilpret.blogspot.com/2009/04/bean-properties-without-hard-coded.html

Fancy one more Java cup? Friday, April 24, 2009. Bean properties without hard-coded names? Have been around for more than a decade and, although they were good for tools (IDE), their full capabilities (bound properties in particular) were not much used in 3nd party libraries until only recently (e.g. JSR-295 "Beans binding". I have never been a big fan of Bean properties for many reasons:. They incur a lot of boilerplate code (in particular for bound properties). Hence this doesn't bear refactoring.

Fancy one more Java cup? Friday, May 01, 2009. DesignGridLayout: where do we stand? It's been a long time I haven't blogged on DesignGridLayout. Several events have concurred to this lack of communication:. I have bought a brand new notebook (for those interested: that's a Sony VAIO Z. It's taken me a long time to have DesignGridLayout tests run on both my old notebook (Windows XP) and my new one (Vista). I have plaid with Hudson. On my old notebook to setup a continuous build for DesignGridLayout. Note ...

Fancy one more Java cup?: Why I do open source and how I came to it

http://jfpoilpret.blogspot.com/2009/02/why-i-do-open-source-and-how-i-came-to.html

Fancy one more Java cup? Thursday, February 05, 2009. Why I do open source and how I came to it. As prompted by Alex Ruiz. Himself prompted by Kirill. I will explain in this post my reasons for doing open source. But as a way to explain my motivation, I will draw a history of my involvement into open source. I have to admit that remembering that history was not easy, thanks Google I could find quite a lot of facts I had almost forgotten about my own past;-). All projects above have brought me a lot in te...

Fancy one more Java cup? Thursday, January 15, 2009. Swing UI layout: best practices. Today, I will show my best practices about designing Swing UI forms. This post focuses exclusively on UI layout.

Fancy one more Java cup? Thursday, July 31, 2008. Dynamically loading Guice modules as external plugins. Today I will present some experiments I am currently working on with Guice. Nowadays, it is more and more common to see applications that users can customize simply by dropping "plugins" in some defined directory. A well-known example is Eclipse, but there are many such examples. One way to realize this is to use an " OSGi. S that can be used to create a Guice Injector. Static private final String MAN...
