It seems that the idea I had is more of a silly thought. It’s not the nature of the idea, or how to apply it. It’s because of cultural limitations and its inherited problems. It was simply a solution to provide a repository for info related to any business environment and it’s its effect on a certain business. It...
As a start of my blog’s CSS revamping – I found this gem. A Color Scheme generator (Javascript based) with lots of cool features (It suggests a plethory of schemes just by dragging the dot on the color wheel). I especially liked their variations of (Pastel, Dark Pastel, …) The website also has a lot of CSS tips which...
I was requested (in alignment with my hazy career plan in the company) to do a review of our corporate strategy and to present my report to a line of the T.M. (WOW! sound like this guy is climbing somewhere…. but, he’s really and truly not:-) ). While reading a financial newspaper a couple of days ago I was...
After having GMail, Google Suggests, Google Maps, Yahoo! mail contact list, it seems like XmlHttpRequest is really kicking in. Althought the idea have been around for a while yet, it looks like Google Maps smooth zooming and panning have hit people on the heads (I love it). I’m reading about Ajax, DWR, SWF and it seems that the craze...
A neat tool for log [files] processing is Chainsaw.It enables processing log files from various sources and in various formats.I had to download log4j-1.3alpha for some of its jars (UGLI) in order to start Chainsaw. I’m still trying to configure it to read some log output (stdout) from my application during development.

I was about to quit playing with it as it wouldn’t read foreign key names with the exception:`java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: There is no column named in the table named ` It seemed that Middlegen was reading...
The plug was pulled on the project I was working on – adapting an opensource workflow engine (jBPM in my case) for use in an existing application. Although it did hurt a bit (since I’ve done an extensive job understanding the target application), yet, the amount of time I spent on Spring (the framework of choice) were really thrilling....
I’ve been through Spring forums for quite a while now trying to figure out how to SIMPLY forward a request to a controller from another controller (keywords: forward, forwarding, controller chaining, …). It seems that this basic function has no easy implementation. The problem started when I wanted to forward the request to a controller that is dynamically determined...
I Hate DB2/400 (iSeries) or at least V5R1 SEVERE: SQLException occurred<br>java.sql.SQLException: [SQL0208] ORDER BY column WRID or expression not in result table. Discovered that was because Hibernate “auto generated” alias for any column in its select clause is not used in the ORDER BY clause (real column name is used instead).A DB2/400 deficiency as many other databases understands the...
It seems that when posting with w.bloggar (version 3.x at least) all my comments settings were adjusted to “Allow comments for 7 day” on the postings. When checking with the JRoller editor, comments setting were defaulted to “allow comments for unlimited days” Had a quick look on w.bloggar’s forums, but was not mentioned. Any suggestions?
