You don't need a hardware device (like Lantronix adapter) to route data from a Serial port to a socket. Thanks to socat. You can relay data from a serial port to another or serial port to a socket or socket to socket and plenty more such combos, all in one line! Socat is exhaustive in what it can take as arguments. Check it out. The baud rate specified here is 9600. fork.

An Eclipse plug-in for Ivy makes it a lot easier to work with Ivy. Some of the notable things that IvyDE does are automatic resolving of dependencies when ivy.xml is modified or the first time a project is loaded, ability to clear caches by providing a sub menu, Error checking/validation of ivy configurations and so on. I created a tutorial at the following location.

Tips and tricks on Datawarehousing, Java, linux and Nonstop programming. Sunday, March 18, 2012. Publishing to a branch using Ivy. Ivy off the shelf works fine if you are not dealing with branches. The examples in the samples that can be downloaded don't have much for using branches. That's because branches are optional for Ivy. All it cares about is the module name and revision number for getting the last build number or publishing an artifact to the repository. Trunk" defaultResolver="chain" latest="la...

Tips and tricks on Datawarehousing, Java, linux and Nonstop programming. Thursday, August 9, 2012. IvyDE (the eclipse plugin for Ivy) manages dependencies by automatically downloading them from the repository. It also attaches the sources(if they are available in the repository) to binaries under the hood without any custom settings. Helps to debug the source for any dependency. Comment out entries for projects B and C in project A's ivy.xml and then add project B and C to project A's build path. You are...

Are you having a problem with ivy post-download-artifact trigger? Is the ant call target not firing for you? Here is a sample post-download-artifact trigger for handling a zip artifact. Triggers ant -call prefix="dep" target="unzip" event="post-download-artifact" filter="type=zip"/ /ant /triggers. Now does it make post-download-artifact redundant?

Dollop of Desi: Improving performance of Jenkins
http://dollopofdesi.blogspot.com/2012/09/improving-performance-of-jenkins.html
Tips and tricks on Datawarehousing, Java, linux and Nonstop programming. Thursday, September 13, 2012. Improving performance of Jenkins. Slows down over a period of time. Builds start taking more time than usual. The start up time increases to manifolds. You may wonder that throwing in more memory to the Jenkins process or making the JVM process do garbage collection frequently, etc might make it better. But if that doesn't do the trick, then read on. Here is a white paper. And on Linux it is /var/tmp.

Generally I don't power off my machine at the end of the day or for that matter anytime unless there are updates that prompt me to restart. Also I leave firefox ON with 10-15 tabs! So the system is ON for weeks sometimes even a month or two! But in the last 6 months or so I have been encountering this weird problem. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my ...

The default drive for installing an application on a windows system is C. In fact on launching the .msi or .exe installer file it does show you the complete path where the package will be installed. but if you preset the drive to say D on the .aip file, the msi installer chokes on boxes where there is no D drive.
