I work in an engineering group at Sun which is chartered with helping
software vendors adopt, support, and optimize for Sun technologies.
Sometimes the projects are obviously Sun-oriented (like porting to
Solaris or performance-tuning an application for current UltraSPARC
hardware), but sometimes they are less directly Sun-focused (like
migrating an application to Java or re-engineering one to support
multithreading).
I would like to use this blog to discuss tricks and tips that I
run across that I think might be useful for other developers.
