TheServerSide 2010 Java Symposium In Las Vegas
TheServerSide 2010 Java Symposium
is the most respected conference for the enterprise
development community. The conference will be hosted at the Caesar's Palace once
again, and will feature one of the best speaker line ups ever!
James Gosling, the
Father of Java, will be the event keynote speaker on the first day. The conference will cover frameworks,
architecture and SOA, languages for the JVM, tools and techniques, cloud computing,
and a new track for client-side development. I've been invited to present or host
these sessions:
- JVM Languages for Enterprise Applications Case Study
- Mission-Critical Enterprise/Cloud Applications Case Study
- Moderator of the Integration Platforms Panel
I look forward to seeing you in Las Vegas!
Dynamic App Runtime Updates Using Mule Punching
Mule punching is a technique for extending or modifying the run-time code in Mule
without stopping the server. The term is based on the Ruby programming jargon
duck punching, where if duck typing doesn't work, you punch the duck until it does.
If the services app doesn't do what you need, you can punch the mule until it does by
changing the methods and attributes of service components and transformers without
stopping the server, and even reconfigure the behavior of third-party packages without
access to their code... all while the Mule server runs.

paster.vim - A Pastebin Plugin For Vim
paster.vim -- BSD license
Paste text from the current document onto a public pastebin or board. This
implementation is written in vim to reduce external depencencies to Python or
Perl. The only external dependency is cURL (e.g. /usr/bin/curl in UNIX-like
systems) as an HTTP posting tool. This posting tool, and all its command line
parameters are configurable by the user.
Paster features:
- Pastes to any pastebin with a public API
- The end-user's nick is configurable per use, or via .vimrc
- Sends syntax highlighting information if the target supports it
- Uses standard vim range commands for its use
- Copies the URL where the text was pasted to the system clipboard and the status line
