16, Dec 2009

Create your Datasource e.g. in Glassfish v3’s admin console… I named mine jdbc/postgresDS 2. copy the file pgsqljndi.php to /usr/share/php/DB/pgsqljndi.php (or wherever you include your […]

Since today, I’m a commiter in Scrumshark – the Social Project Management Tool. One of my student groups in Advanced Software Engineering already are using this tool and I will try to extend it with some nice and helpful features.

If you, like me, like to try out Glassfish v3 with its build in support for JavaEE6 and JSF 2, don’t even try to use the Glassfish v3 Preview Edition available on the Glassfish website.

JetBrains released a new EAP (Early Access Program) for IntelliJ Idea 9 Codename Maia, namely Idea Ultimate Edition v 90:116 90:122. Grab the packages for your operating system here

Because finally someone showed interest in helping me with my Spring Security JSF 2.0 Taglib, I created my first project at Google Code. The homepage of the project is still located on my server, but maybe I’ll move that too as soon as I find out how to do it.
