Calling all users/developers of XML Multiview, please vote to the issue and share your experiences and design inputs into the issue report.
To update the issue please click here.
For those who are new, XML Multiview is a nice feature in NetBeans that helps to create a fantastic and easy to use XML Editor based on any DTD or XSD. Many of the existing NetBeans modules such as Java EE use this API extensively. (for example, web.xml editor). Also this API is used in many NetBeans platform based application as well.

I am currently into new ventures that dive deep into the systems and hardware ..
One funny thing that found out today is this : How to find out MAC address on Solaris. I was too, surprised to see why 'ifconfig -a' prints mac address only if run as root ... interesting..

This is the report from Vellore Institute of Technology, where last Sunday (1st March, 2009) a technical workshop was conducted on Java ME, Java FX and OpenSolaris.
One thing that made everyone of us curious about the college campus was the rail track right in between the campus as shown here.
We (a group of seven Sun Engineers) reached the campus one day before the event. The day started early which protected us from the direct contact of the radiant Sun. We divided the event into three parellel tracks - Java ME, Java FX and OpenSolaris and occupied the computer labs as per the plan. Myself, Varun and Amit covered Java ME, Glashfish and MySQL. Lawrence and Blesson covered Java FX and Gowtham and Nirmal covered OpenSolaris.
There was a tremendous interest towards Java ME in the students who where mostly in third year of their engineering course. I see many students already wrote few small Java ME programs and have them on their cellphones. The questions they asked showed that they were learning and writing programs since long time and gathered sufficient knowledge and skill.
My session was on Java ME with a demo. Slides here and I happen to get the "Hello Mobile World" program written (on NetBeans 6.5 IDE) , tested (using Nokia S60 emulator) and transfered to my cellphone and ran it live! Also, I was able to hook up the client-server tutorial on NetBeans Mobility learning trail.
This report do not contain photos from the event, since I forgot to carry the camera to the event

The NetBeans platform development session went well.... I could cover most of the topics and could demonstrate a simple application to the audience. But due to the last minute issues related to projector compatibility with my laptop (Sony Vaio) I had to use a borrowed laptop and quickly setup my main demo program there. The main demo is being developed here : https://playfull.dev.java.net
On the second day I manned the 'Connected Developer' booth with Ashwin and John (http://kenai.com). Most of the visitors were students. Apart from the typical questions that I get all the time when I meet students (number one is 'How Sun Makes money out of opensource software' ), there were many technical questions on NetBeans and project kenai. Few students were interested in VirtualBox, and I showed them a live demo of Virtual Box running on my laptop. On NetBeans, many students were asking about Server integration for web projects, frameworks such as Hibernate and struts, profiling a web application and questions like 'does NetBeans have a cool HTML editor just like the dreamweaver ? why NetBeans does not support SWT, whats the advantage of NetBeans over eclipse, how can I migrate NetBeans 3.x application into the latest one and where to look for help on this, can I do 'this' in JavaFX, how can I get started with JavaFX and few more questions that I cannot remember now...
Many students were intersted in writing plugins for NetBeans IDE, using VirtualBox, getting started with JavaFX, Project Kenai, Zimbly, OpenSolaris Project looking glass and some more ..
Overall it was a great experience to meet many students and ofcourse, my blog readers ..

This week's NetBeans news-letter posted a new cool screen-cast on Hibernate support in NetBeans 6.5 IDE. The screen-cast available on www.netbeans.tv shows many features as part of the Hibernate support in the IDE, including, creation of Hibernate configuration file, running Hibernate reverse engineering to generate POJOs and finally using HQL Editor to create and execute HQL queries right from the IDE.
Check out the screencast and the following tutorials posted on the Web Application Learning trail page and send us your feedback/comments.

NetBeans module development (many times) involves running two IDE instances at the same time : development IDE, where actual module code is written and the target IDE where the code is executed and verified. While fixing a recent issue, I had to make the target IDE run on J2SE 6.0 and was able to debug the code, while the development IDE still running on J2SE 5.0.
This is tricky since, the target IDE by default runs with the same J2SE version as of the development IDE, there's little manual work required.
Here's what worked for me :
-J-Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=4444

As you might have noticed, NetBeans is celebrating its 10th birthday. And to add to this event, NetBeans 6.5 IDE RC1 is out. (Download it from here). Its no surprise that it bears the event stamp on the splash image.

During debugging, if NetBeans sees several method calls on a single line, it allows you to choose for stepping into one of them. So cool !
Update : This feature is available in NetBeans 6.5 beta onwards.

What do you think of the following picture ? Update : Its one of the front headlight of my new car! Did you see it?
The following picture is captured at Kolhapur (Mahalakshmi temple, to which we pay regular visits). The light posts have been hanging places for pigeons.
This picture below shows a regular visitor to our neighborhood, but it was very hard to capture like this before. Thank you Mr. Mongoose for the pose.
The following picture takes me back to my childhood. (ahh, the good old days) When I was 5 years old, I used to play in this garden. Its a nice place to play hide and seek with the attraction that we can go in and come out safely from the wild animals' mouth
Thats reminds me that I need to submit my first photo project to nyip. This first photo project is about "action", "close up" and "nature vista". I need to submit one more photos for each for these topics. One unique thing about nyip's Professional Photography course is that, all the photo projects are evaluated by experienced and professional photographers. We get to read and hear from them about our project. (they sent out the recorded audio of the evaluator).
