Entrevista a Adam Bien sobre Java 8

En esta cuarta entrevista converse con Adam Bien, quien ha escrito varios libros sobre JavaEE, acerca de su opinión sobre Java8

 




 1.Could you  tell us something about yourself
My name is Adam Bien (adam-bien.com), I'm a contractor / freelancer and so Singleton.  I really like the Java Programming Language.
Three times a year I'm delivering Java EE workshops at the MUCs Airport to an truly international audience -- http://airhacks.com

 2. What has been your experience with Java?
I'm working with Java since 1995. I started implementing serverside Java with the JavaWebServer. On the client I started with Applets, AWT, then evaluated JFC, then Swing, first versions of JavaFX Script. Java remains exciting. I really like it.

3. How do you consider the new Java 8 release?
It is a really big deal. I used Java 8 for about one year. Since the last JavaOne Java 8 is really stable. I ran NetBeans and all my development on Java 8 daily builds.

Also Nashorn is exciting. It saved me already several hours of my time with the maintenance of my web sites: https://github.com/AdamBien/spg


 4. What do you think of lambda, stream?
I already removed JPA with JPA QL and replaced it with plain domain objects, an in memory-grid and Lambdas with streams.
I think Java 8 will have a huge impact on Java EE architectures.


5. Do you know companies / developers who are migrating to Java8?
There is nothing to migrate :-). In some projects we just launched the server on Java 8.

Other projects were started already last year on Java 8--just because of lambdas. If possible you should upgrade as fast as possible to Java 8.


 6. What are the characteristics that should be added to or removed from the platform?
I really miss Jigsaw. Even more syntactic sugar would be nice, but I really like the direction Oracle's engineers are going with Java.


 7- Recommendations

Stay passionated and enjoy hacking. Keep away from meetings, politics and the boring stuff :-)

Thank you for the interview!

Incrementar Memoria NetBeans

Algunas veces necesitamos incrementar la memoria para un mejor rendimiento. http://www.netbeans.org/community/releases/55/uml-download.html Este es un ejemplo para UML. Descripción en ingles. Increasing Memory Settings (applicable to all builds) The default memory settings for NetBeans should be increased for UML projects. If you have the available memory, Locate your NetBeans installation directory ($install_dir). This can be found by starting up NetBeans and selecting Help -> About then select the Detail tab. Edit the $install_dir/etc/netbeans.conf file. Find the line defining netbeans_default_options . Increase the maximum memory attribute to -J-Xmx512m. If you experience heap overflows while working with larger files, you should increase this value further.

Cambiando el Estado de un CheckBox Algunas veces deseamos controlar el estado de un checkbox o cambiarlo segùn determinadas condiciones. Pasos: 1. Creamos un proyecto Web. 2. En el diseñador agregamos un checkbox y dos botones. * Dar click derecho en el checkbox y luego seleccionar Add Binding Attribute, para agregar los atributos al checkbox, de manera que los podamos usar en nuestro código. Generando automáticamente private Checkbox checkbox1 = new Checkbox(); public Checkbox getCheckbox1() { return checkbox1; } public void setCheckbox1(Checkbox c) { this.checkbox1 = c; } 3.Damos click derecho en el botón Habilitar, y seleccionamos Edit Action Event Handler. A continuación, agregamos el código: this.checkbox1.setSelected(true);, el método setSelected con valor true, marca el checkbox como seleccionado, y un valor de false, quita la marca. public String button1_action() { // TODO: Process the action. Return value is a navigation // ...
