Ok some of you are probably already familiar with the Apache Commons‘ BeanUtils framework, so this might not come as a surprise, but I have just discovered recently a class which I found myself in the past implementing bits of, one way or another: the BeanMap class! I swear, when dealing with loading random properties […]

Java Catalog 1.1
It’s only been 1 day since I published Java Catalog 1.0 and I got already feedback on this from 3 visitors! This beats any previous “records” on my website, I must confess, hence the rush to incorporate these into the code/package and publish a new version! Simone Tripodi, being the helpful guy he always is, […]
Java Catalog 1.0
It’s amazing what you find when you look closely at how you use a computer nowadays — I only just realised that ages ago I have put together this little Java application to help me sort out my mobile phone image collection every time I download them onto my computer…yet even though I’ve been using […]
J2ME: Scale an Image to Fit the Screen Size
It’s more and more common with the new generation of mobiles nowadays to have a megapixel camera built in the mobile itself. And with that comes the fact that if you ever want to allow your user to select one of the images s/he has captured with this camera (see above) you are dealing with […]
J2ME: Read an Image from the Device Filesystem
As you’ve seen with previous posts, I’m trying to make sure that all the stuff that used to be on my old website and people are still looking for is being brought back to light; and one of the search terms that I see redirecting people to my website is “j2me read file” — for […]
J2ME Convertor Application
Yet another resurrected (old) J2ME application from my old website. I couldn’t actually find the original page for this, just the zip file with all the sources for this and the compiled version.So you might have to figure this one by yourself I’m afraid! If (and that is a big “if” at the moment unfortunately!) […]
J2ME StopWatch Application
This is another resurrect from my old website — again, it seems people are visiting my site looking for this (old) J2ME application. Please be aware that I haven’t updated this application in ages — it was known to run last time I checked, but that was a while back. I suspect as such it’s […]
Implications of Using XPath on Speed
This is something that I have discovered recently looking through some (old) code — and it occurred to me that XPath is so powerful and easy to use that quite often programmers might forget the price paid for something this powerful. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying XPath is worthless (on the contrary!), if […]
Java vs JavaScript?
The title of this post was intentionally chosen to raise some eyebrows – after all we all know that in most cases (I’m taking the likes of Rhino out of the equation, same for applets) the former resides on the server side while the latter is used as a client-side language. So why would someone […]
StringBuilder — Memory Consumption
You have seen probably my initial post about creating StringBuilder’s in Java — and the continuation of it which looked at timings involved. As I promised, I have finally had some time to look at the memory consumption involved in using the 2 ways of creating a StringBuilder in Java. I have used a code […]
