    Eclipse Plugin for JavaFX 1.2 ( http://javafx.com/docs/gettingstarted/eclipse-plugin/release-notes.jsp )

    What's New in Version 1.2 of the eclipse plugin

    The following list describes the changes that were made to the JavaFX Plugin for Eclipse since the 1.0 release:

  • New JavaFX Project wizard - It is no longer necessary to create a Java project first and then add the JavaFX nature to it in a separate step. Select File > New > Project > JavaFX > JavaFX Project to get the New JavaFX Project wizard to appear. Alternatively, you can click Ctrl-N on the Windows platform or Cmd-N on the Macintosh platform.

  • New Project Templates - Several new project templates of sample applications and building blocks are available in the Template Projects page of the New JavaFX Project wizard. These templates give you a starting point for your JavaFX application development. More templates might be added in a future release.

  • New Editor Features

    • Code completion is now available and accomplished by pressing Ctrl-Space after partially typed keywords, class names, function names, variable names, so on. A pop-up list appears, from which you make your selection to complete your code.

    • Automatic indenting and brace insertion occur according to the JavaFX source structure.

    • Eclipse Outline view support is now available and includes the navigation to source file locations when the user clicks on a node in the Outline view.

    • Continuous feedback of syntax and compilation errors is reported when the user pauses while typing and does not occur only when the file is saved.

    • Block folding allows you to hide or display blocks of code or comments in the source file. The comment block folding is turned on by default.

    • Pop-up API documentation is available when the mouse hovers over an identifier or when an identifier is selected during code completion.

  • Minimal Debugging support that includes step-in, breakpoints, and variable inspection (but not watchpoints) is available only when running the application in the "Run as Application" desktop profile.

Hibernate Generic DAO.

When you use Hibernate and DAO pattern it is a good idea to use a Generic Base Dao. The fallowing code snippet contains GenericDAO that is a base class for all my DAO classes. This GenericDAO uses HibernateDaoSupport from Spring for its implementation if you want you can use JpaDaoSupport or JdbcDaoSupport in your projects. My Generic DAO interface looks like this : package org.joke.myproject.dao.base; import java.io.Serializable; import java.util.List; /** * @author Naiden Gochev * @param <E> * @param <PK> */ public interface GenericDao<E,PK  extends Serializable> {     PK save(E newInstance);     void update(E transientObject);     void saveOrUpdate(E transientObject);     void delete(E persistentObject);     E findById(PK id);     List<E> findAll();     List<E> f...

Patching a Maven library with your custom class.

Sometimes you use a library that has a bug. Or maybe it doesn’t has a bug but you want to change something. Of course if it is an open source you can get the sources… build them … with your change and so on. However this first takes a lot of time and second you need the sources. What you usually want .. is to just replace one class.. or few classes with something custom… maybe add a line .. or remove a line and so on. Yesterday… I had an issue with jboss-logging. The version I was using was 3.2.0Beta1 and it turns out that using this version and log4j2 2.0 final basically meant that no log is send to log4j2. The reason was a null pointer exception that was catched in jboss logging class called Log4j2Logger. The bug I submitted is here https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBLOGGING-107 and it was fixed at the same day. However I will use it as an example since I didn’t knew when this will be fixed.. and I didn’t want to wait till it is fixed. So I was thinking what I want.. to take the j...
