I haven't read about Hologic before and I'm left wondering if Hologic would be beneficial for the JCP.<br /> But why there is the opinion that Hologic shouldn't have been voted because ...<br /> <ul> <li>Hologic prefers Oracle products</li> <li>Oracle has nominated Hologic<br /> </li> </ul> ... is this an acceptable attitude?<br /> <br /> In the next sentence Google will be mentioned and that this would be the better choice?<br /> Come on, this election has only brought Google closer to a monopoly. <br /> What is the benefit of Google for the JCP?<br /> Google employees create great products. In the Java field the most known are GWT, GAE, Closure, Google Collections, support libs for all the Google APIs and also Android and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalvik_%28software%29">Dalvik</a>.<br /> Yes, Android... I'm not happy that Google has used technology of Android, Inc (see <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_%28operating_system%29">here</a> and <a href="http://www.businessweek.com/technology/content/aug2005/tc20050817_0949_tc024.htm">here</a>) for their mobile phone environment. This brought some kind of split into the Java hemisphere.<br /> I would be thankful if Google uses its new seat to reconcile Android with Java but is this the intention of Google? <br /> At the moment I've a queasy feeling and I'm not convinced that Google can appease my hunger.<br /> Enjoy your meal!<br /> <br /> Some more links:<br /> <a href="http://java.dzone.com/articles/jcp-election-results-hologic">http://java.dzone.com/articles/jcp-election-results-hologic</a><br /> <a href="http://www.theserverside.com/news/2240024154/The-Oracle-Lawsuit-Will-End-with-Google-Owning-Java">http://www.theserverside.com/news/2240024154/The-Oracle-Lawsuit-Will-End-with-Google-Owning-Java</a><br /> <a href="http://source.android.com/index.html">http://source.android.com/index.html</a><br /> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_%28operating_system%29">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_%28operating_system%29</a> tech http://www.tower-net.de:80/blog/2010/11/02/1288735860000.html#comments http://www.tower-net.de:80/blog/2010/11/02/1288735860000.html Tue, 02 Nov 2010 22:11:00 GMT http://www.tower-net.de:80/blog/2009/11/08/1257673320000.html This morning I've got an invitation to Google Wave.<br /> I have not tried to communicate through waves right now.<br /> Had only a fast view of public waves. This is some kind of open discussion with images and videos possible. The public waves are big and so the JavaScript seems to be some performance limitation. Public waves have been slow. tech http://www.tower-net.de:80/blog/2009/11/08/1257673320000.html#comments http://www.tower-net.de:80/blog/2009/11/08/1257673320000.html Sun, 08 Nov 2009 09:42:00 GMT http://www.tower-net.de:80/blog/2009/10/18/1255825680000.html It is really a simple and fast solution to use <a href="http://code.google.com/p/google-gson/">google-gson</a> to convert Java objects with primitives to <a href="http://www.json.org/">JSON</a> and back. <br /> A call to <em>new Gson().toJson(primitiveObj)</em> is all you need.<br /> There's also a Maven repository for easy integration in your project.<br /> Try it out before you fiddle around with your own object converter! programming http://www.tower-net.de:80/blog/2009/10/18/1255825680000.html#comments http://www.tower-net.de:80/blog/2009/10/18/1255825680000.html Sun, 18 Oct 2009 00:28:00 GMT
