I know...I know...in the world of social networking like twitter, blogs just aren't cool anymore, right? Well every once and a while I want to share something that exceeds 144 characters, so I created SolamenteNiel, my blog. While I'm at it, I'm also going old school with a cheesy picture of myself on my blog. In this picture I'm pertending to be an IndyCar driver.
In this blog post I will describe an authentication implementation that uses Spring Security and OpenID.
Read Full PostIn this blog post I describe how I use password encryption (MD5 hash) as an alternative to using SSL in a Spring MVC application. I specifically cover (and share source code of) the implementation of the Spring MVC request handlers and login form. For the request handlers I use the Java cryptography libraries, and for the login form I use the Javascript MD5 library.
Read Full PostDave Meurer, a colleague of mine at Skyway Software, decided to put his creativity to use in creating a Double Rainbow parody for Spring and Java application developers. In less than three minutes he generates five fully working Rainbow Management applications: (1) Spring MVC, (2) Spring Web Flow, (3) Adobe Flex + Spring, (4) GWT + Spring, and (5) iPhone Web.
Nice job Dave!!
Today I published a blog post on the Genuitec blog regarding the new GWT scaffolding functionality in MyEclipse for Spring 8.6.
This week Genuitec and Skyway Software released the second milestone (M2) of MyEclipse for Spring 8.6, which includes scaffolding for Google Web Toolkit (GWT) applications. With this new release, you can now generate full ready-to-run GWT applications from your domain model (i.e. DB tables, Java Beans, or JPA Entities).
The new GWT scaffolding option is available using the same scaffolding wizard that MyEclipse for Spring developers are already familiar with. The scaffolding wizard is a one-stop shop for all of the MyEclipse for Spring scaffolding capabilities, which also includes Spring MVC, Spring Web Flow and Adobe Flex scaffolding.
Earlier in the week I published a post on the Genuitec blog that compares Spring Web Flow editors.
All Spring Web Flow Editors are not created equal. The purpose of this post is to outline some of the key differences between the Spring Web Flow Editors found in SpringIDE and MyEclipse for Spring. I’ve also included some screenshots to further illustrate how working with a Flow Editor that is intuitive and feature-rich can make all the difference when developing applications with Spring Web Flow.
