Roll Your Own MIDP on OS X - October 21, 2003

via Sun: "This article is not an introduction to MIDP, nor is it an introduction to using the command line. If you already know your way around J2ME, XML, and Terminal.app, this article will help you roll up your sleeves, open up your command line, and start writing MIDlets on your Mac." Yes, I know this is old news, but I missed it. :-) Maybe there are others that missed it too, so here is the link.

jTunes Arrives - October 21, 2003

via O'ReillyNet.com: "A J2ME version of jTunes brought the desktop experience to the small device. Users appreciated the familiarity. Moreover, to get music into the device, it had to provide USB and FireWire ports, which in turn required API's to use these ports from Java. With a public release of these API's, Java suddenly became instantly useful to device makers.

The word on the street is wrong, and PHP needs someone to stand up and tell the truth: that it does scale." Jack Herrington opens his OnJava.com article with the paragraph above, and a good discussion follows.

Pro JSP Arrives at Borders - October 21, 2003

Well, I made my weekly trip to Borders to see what new Java books had hit the bookshelves. The one book I have been looking for has landed. Pro JSP, by Simon Brown, Sam Dalton, Daniel Jepp, Dave Johnson, Sing Li, and Matt Raible, stood there waiting for me to pick it up. It looks like a great book. It covers everything, including a JSP anatomy lesson and how to use Struts, XDoclet, and other tools. Unfortunately, at $59.95, the price is a little out there for me this month. However, it...

JNI on Mac OS X Revisited - October 21, 2003

via OnJava.com: "In this article, we'll revisit the process of building a JNI project using the latest JDK 1.4.1, Apple's Project Builder, and the latest Java tools from Apple. We'll assume that you have registered with Apple Developer Connection (ADC) and downloaded the latest tools (as shown in Figure 1). After we look at building a JNI example, we'll look at some questions sent in by readers of the book." This article is timely for me. I just picked up Will's book last week. Maybe this...
