How do you integrate GWT into an existing, AJAX based application???
This is the question that arose for me recently. I was working on a decent sized web application that used the popular Dojo JavaScript library. We simply wanted a far more stable environment to develop our application and chose GWT for this. The problem was [...]

I have joined a great open source project focused on creating great UI based widgets for JavaFX, its called “JFXtras” and its only in its early stages, but its looking like its going to get very popular and choc full of features very quick.
Just a quick list of features include:

Shapes and Silhouettes
Many layout controls such [...]

G’Day.
In this post, I will demonstrate with code samples, just how a developer would use the JFXGraph application.
Note:I have made a small update to the application that I posted about in the previous post, which will allow you to add your own bars to the graph, and, by double-clicking on a bar, will remove the [...]

Firstly, happy new year! This is my first post for 2009, and so far the new year has been going great!
So strait into the good stuff…
As you may have seen in a previous post of mine a bar graph type of application that demonstrated the integration of Java with JavaFX.

Up until recently I have been playing around with JavaFX getting my hands dirty on some of the finer points of the FX Script language. But I recently realised that I have not really been using JavaFX with Java…but rather just JavaFX itself.
In real world development where timelines are important, money matters, and efficiency is [...]

Since the release of JavaFX, there have been a few nice articles about the upgrade from the preview release of JavaFX, to the 1.0 SDK. Like this article: Migrating from the JavaFX Preview release.
I thought, instead of re-iterating what has already been said, I would just go over what I had to do to get [...]

After the release of JavaFX, I have been just getting my existing games up-to-date to use the 1.0 SDK. So far, and I will blog on this later on, it has been pain free. But there was one thing that I noticed, and that was my collision detection timelines were not working anymore.
The Node contains() [...]

IntroductionI have been recently adding some JavaFX examples to my blog and I have wanted to also add a simple little link to the JNLP web start file and I really had no idea how to accomplish this on blogger.
The issues I had was the hosting of the files and the locations of the dependent [...]

For a small while now I have been playing with the preview release of JavaFX and have been quite happy with it. There have been the few bugs here and there and the netbeans plugin still has some ways to go, but hey, its a preview release, its allowed to!
I decided that I would really [...]

I have been an enterprise developer for a few years now and I started in c# back in the .NET 1.0/1.1 days. From the get-go, I found c# to be a great language and have been following its progress for some time, and will continue to do so for even longer.
At the moment I’m in [...]
