Another 4 NetBeans reviews from the contest
| Agraj
Mangal, Sun Campus
Ambassador at University of Delhi,
India, had a submission
of how to
send email using Java. He used NetBeans 6.1 to write a simple Java
program that sends an email using the owner's email account details.
This functionality can also be embedded in a web application. Agraj had
put together a nice tutorial
with code snippets and lots of helpful
NetBeans 6.1 screenshots as he was developing the application. |

Wasif
Tanveer from University of
Engineering & Technology, Lahore, Pakistan, detailed the
specific NetBeans 6.1
functionalities that he liked most, especially from a mobile
application developer perspective. The default heap size wasn't
sufficient for a huge data file that he was reading in his application,
but he resolved this issue by using dynamic heap size argument
-Xmx512M. Check out Wasif's review here. |
| Chris Leong
from University of Sydney,
Australia, observed that various great features of NetBeans
(deservingly) gets a lot of attention but there are simple things that
considerably increases user's productivity. Chris focused on the
NetBeans Editor itself as he felt that there are features in the editor
that not only increase productivity individually but also make a huge
difference collectively. Chris is a Sun Campus Ambassador, and his
review in a nice story telling format is here. |

Alper Celik,
Sun Campus
Ambassador at The Royal
Institute of Technology, Sweden, noted
the performance improvement in NetBeans
6.1 as well as some of its key features. Being a good ambassador, he
didn't forget to prominently include the "call to action" of
downloading NetBeans 6.1 and trying it out to his fellow student
developers. ![]() |
