jaev 1.0 released
After some weeks the third release candidate of the jaev was the final one yesterday.
The jaev framework is in productional use at least one installation and no major problems where filed so far. I’m keeping my fingers crossed ![]()
I am working already on some new features:
- Caching negative responses of mail servers
When a mail server refuses communication due to suspected spam, the result will be cached to reduce network traffic. - Suggest e-mail addresses
When the validation fails suggest a list e-mail addresses. This algorithm may use the previous request and a default list of domains to compute some suggestions.
If you have any good ideas, file them on the issue tracking system or the google group.
Maybe I am applying for a google wave developer sandbox access to provide a google wave robot for online e-mail suggestion. Bah, that sounds like some work
Mavenizing a Flex build
Verfasst von niclas unter Adobe Flash, Adobe Flex, Flex-mojo, Java, Maven am 21. März 2009
In the last week the release 1.0 platform release of scoyo came close and we were tying up some loose ends. One of these ends was the integration of the scoyo Flash/Flex portal build process into the platform build process.
The platform build process is realized with Apache Maven, which is, in humble my opinion, still the first choice for Java based software projects, but integrating other project types into maven is a kind of challenging due to the nature of Maven. You may summarize this in: If you do it the maven way it’s very easy, if you don’t it is up to you …
Luckily there was already an existing build with Ant and a dysfunctional Maven variant with the Maven Flex-mojos plugin. So it stated my journey to insanity an back …

Rethinking logging
Recently I discovered something new about a thing I am using on an every day basis like most of the software engineers. It’s about logging. You may ask: “What is so exiting about logging?”
In my opinion logging is one of the underestimated aspects of software development. Everyone uses it, but only very few are using it right.
Logging is the bridge between the development phase and the operational phase in the software life cycle. If you do it right it may provide valuable informations about the inner workings of an application.
I’am using log4j for quite a while. I am not sure when the framework was created by Ceki Gülcü, but log4j was the straight edge for java logging in the recent years. Unfortunately it became very quite around the log4j project recently.
The name is jaev …

The name of who/what is jaev? The jaev framework is my first open source project! Jepp, I joined the community and giving something back after years of using the frameworks of other people.
What does jaev do? The name jaev is the abbreviation for java (advanced) email validation. So the framework does validate e-mails. Sounds quite boring, isn’t it? Of course not!

This is strange …
Verfasst von niclas unter Adobe Flex, Privat, jaev am 23. Januar 2009
Wednesday was my last day working day at my old job. It was quite a strange feeling when I left the building. On my way out I made a small round just to say a quick goodbye to some very nice colleagues. Unfortunately I missed a couple of very close ones, but I decided against staying any longer …

Programming objectoriented - but not too much
Last December or January I had the opportunity to extend some software for a customer. This nice litte piece of software has the ability to track some of its usage behavior using a java HashMap.
When I was programing the class which stores the usage statistics of some major features I made a kind of stupid decision, which I am going to be blogging about right now ![]()

Tomcat 6.x … doing it the right way!
Some days ago I posted a blog entry about using Glassfish v2 EJBs with the Tomcat. At this moment I thought that I solved the problems, but last week we were setting our testing evironment on a Debian Linux box and the problems reoccured.
At this moment I thought of a glitch in the server setup but some nagging hours later I realized that my so clever solution was a dirty hack. Which works in a Microsoft Windows environment, but refuses to work on in a Linux environment.
Ok, I have to confess, that I wasn’t really happy with my first solution in the end. Renaming JARs to provide the correct order of class loading always leaves a bad taste. But at that moment I was happy, no other solution was in sight and I had absolutly no time.
JSF 2.0 RI EDR1 … getting mature
