The Rich Engineering Heritage Behind Dependency Injection

Andrew McVeigh takes us on a tour of the rich heritage behind dependency injection, what it represents, and tells us why its here to stay.

Java, the OLPC, and community responsibility

The "One Laptop Per Child" project has a great device ready to ship, but there's no Java on there. Let's think about working together to put Java on OLPC!

Screencast: Why You Should Be Using Eclipse RCP

URL: Eclipse RCP In 10 Minutes

At 4:48 PM on Dec 21, 2005, Matthew Schmidt Javalobby Admin wrote:

RCP Enthusiast, J Aaron Farr, says you should be using Eclipse RCP. Don't believe him? Check out his 10 minute screencast showing the functionality that proves why Java on the desktop isn't dead!

This screencast showcases one of Eclipse's core advantages -- module reusability. Not just class reusability, but full component reuse. Such reuse is not easy to achieve, but Eclipse's architecture makes this much more possible than ever before. That programmer's holy grail is now within reach.

Read his reasoning and watch the screencast now!

Nice Demo,

I was wondering about the Windows XP theme used in the demo, since the font and appearance look friendlier to my eyes, but somehow I can not have that look in my windows.

Regards,

If you are interested in how to create plug-ins for NetBeans, check out this very simple demo . We'll prepare more advanced flash demos for NetBeans 5.0, now that NetBeans has an RCP support which is comparable to Eclipse's.

Thanks for the pointer,

I've just found out that I should turn on ClearType to make fonts look just like in the demo.

Excellent video summary.
Please continue the series! I have an SWT book, but real working demonstrations go so much further.

Excellent intro! I'd like to see more examples as well.
Its my understanding that you can mix Swing code with the eclipse RCP. It would be great if we could see a sample of how to create that.

Excellent work! I liked how you used the plugin in Eclipse first, then showed how it was easily integrated into your own RCP.

Excellent demo, to the point. It piques you to explore more of RCP.
BTW, what did you use for creating the demo itself?
