some personal, more technical – by Thomas Einwaller
Two weeks ago I updated our internal JIRA to the latest version 4.1 which provides some nice UI improvements especially in the detail view of issues and image attachments. Unfortunately since the update I am not able to use the Mylyn connector inside my Springsource Tool Suite with JIRA. When I try to update an [...]

I started very good and reached the third level first but then I misinterpreted the specification and worked [...]
I made my first “experiments” with Subversion about two years ago. After using Eclipse and CVS for a long time I expected a smooth upgrade with getting some new features (versioned directories, renaming, moving …) – I was disappointed.

Here are my favorite improvements: Performance Java compile on multi-CPU machines – the Eclipse Compiles now takes advantage of multi-threading capabilities of multi-CPU machines. Builds are a lot faster! UI improvements I [...]
Seems like the new version 0.9.4.20080603-0114 of the Maven Eclipse plugin now provides better supports for WTP. In the last versions I had troubles when opening or closing depending Java projects. They were not added as jar files when the utility project was closed and the source project was not added to the maven dependency [...]

18 Mar 2008Finally RIM released a a version of its BlackBerry Java development environment as a plugin for Eclipse. It is available under http://www.blackberry.com/go/eclipse as a free download. My download is already 90% finished and I hope that this will ease development of BlackBerry apps. As an Eclipse fan I was really frustrated about the JDE releases [...]
