Lucas Jordan's Blog: JavaFX Production Suite - More Suggestions
http://lucasjordan.blogspot.com/2009/11/javafx-production-suite-more.html
UI, Java, etc. Friday, November 06, 2009. JavaFX Production Suite - More Suggestions. I was recently working with the JavaFX Production Suite and have another suggestion for making it better. The first thing I want to talk about is the coordinates assigned to Nodes when they exported. Or lack of coordinates to be precise. The second issue is the inability to clone items within fxz content. Lets take a look at the example illustrator project in the following picture. Fill: Color.rgb(0x0,0xae,0xef). This p...

Lucas Jordan's Blog: Inkscape and JavaFX - Almost there
http://lucasjordan.blogspot.com/2009/06/inkscape-and-javafx-almost-there.html
UI, Java, etc. Tuesday, June 16, 2009. Inkscape and JavaFX - Almost there. I was recently on a panel at JavaONE and a developer ask about support for open source tools and JavaFX. He was interested in exporting JavaFX content from Inkscape. I am on a Mac, so the instructions are Mac specific, but the basics steps should help anyone interested. Open up a terminal and install Inkscape with macports. Sudo /opt/local/bin/port install inkscape-devel. My installation of macports is at /opt/local/bin. It seems ...

UI, Java, etc. Monday, September 08, 2008. I had a thought today. what could one do with a Thumper. Packed with solid state drives? With 48 of the 160Gb version of intel's SSD drives. There would be 7680 Gb of storage at an incredible read rate. Render farms come to mind, as well as video servers or any large data set. I have to see if Sun can configure me one :).

UI, Java, etc. Tuesday, May 19, 2009. A Java App Store is simply music to my ears. Being an iPhone user and developer, the advantages of Apple's app store is crystal clear to me. Having a single vector to get apps onto my phone is pretty nice, having a service where I can publish apps and get them to millions of users is amazing. It does sound like Sun will be asking customers to pay for the privilege of appearing in their store. I sure hope this is limited to 'front page' apps. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Lucas Jordan's Blog: December 2008
http://lucasjordan.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
UI, Java, etc. Thursday, December 18, 2008. I have released my first iPhone game recently, called Space Attack! Please check it out. Developing this game in my spare time took me about two months longer then I expected. Between Xcode. Core Animation is one of those tools I missed on the first game. I have started working on a second (and third, fourth.) game and have decided to use Core Animation for it. It is for a lot more then just animation, it should be thought of as a scene graph API.

My Work at DigitalXtractions. DigitalXtractions can be found here. Here is the simplified story of my experience developing the SCIRC and associated applications. When I started at DigitalXtractions Marc Blumenfeld, founder and president, handed me a Cingular 2125 and said "Make it take pictures automatically, and send them to the Internet.". Back to Java, my first love. GWT and the SCIRC Portal. I hit go, the server logs the response, the GWT updates. Awesome!

UI, Java, etc. Monday, December 07, 2009. JavaONE 2010 call for papers? I was hoping to submit some work from my new book. As a talk at JavaONE 2010. Then I realized that the call for papers last was around this time last year. A quick google search makes it look like the call for papers when out on Dec 4th of last year. It looks like JavaONE 2010 will be held Sept 19-23. The call papers should be announced any day now. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). JavaONE 2010 call for papers? View my complete profile.

UI, Java, etc. Monday, August 17, 2009. Java Store Affiliate Program - Sales As A Service. The cost of email, basic web site hosting and a calendar is the cost of registering your domain, 11 bucks, or whatever it is. Another service provided at very low cost is distributing and charging as can be seen with iTunes and hopefully the Java Store. You have never heard of them, and this is because they have never been promoted properly. But I think I know a solution to this. The developers should have the powe...

UI, Java, etc. Friday, August 15, 2008. JavaFX and Adobe Illustrator. Out there, so great, people often assume they are flash applications. Sun has recently released a preview SDK of JavaFX. Which includes plugins for a hand full of creative products, including Adobe's Illustrator. The following is a review and critique of how these new tools address the development process. Once a project is created it is worth spending some time to checkout what Netbeans provides. There seems to be a Main class cre...
