03/14/2005 05:04 PMThis week, we look at an introduction to Spring. Based on a design
principle called Inversion of Control, Spring reduces the complexity
of using interfaces and speeds up your application development. You
get the power of EJB and get to keep the simplicity of the
non-enterprise JavaBean. By Manning Publications. 0307

03/11/2003 01:23 AMHere I am on "Spring" Break and its thirty-five degrees outside.
And raining.
Here at the college if you want to live on campus over spring break
you have to move into one particular apartment-style dorm for the two
weeks. I don't mind this too much, it's only a short walk from my
usual residence. However, during the rest of the year I think this
apartment is inhabited by neanderthals. The perfect balance of filth
and beer paraphernalia makes this place the epitome of a college
apartment. I won't be here too much anyway, only on the weekends.
I'll be working full time down the road.
Since there is a complete lack of things to do on a closed campus,
I've been playing with the RSS Parser.
Either tonight or tomorrow I will release a new version of the parser,
under a new name. This latest version is a big improvement in code
(using OOP) and
usability. More on the parser later.

A customized Spring book
object
|
Books are one of the object types you can place on a Spring canvas,
associate actions with, and trade (mainly, for now, by way of AIM)
with
other Spring users. When I first began writing about my
LibraryLookup project a few months ago, Spring's creator Robb Beal
wrote to me suggesting that he add LibraryLookup to the list of
context
menu actions associated with a Spring book object. When I noticed that
Spring 1.2 didn't yet include that action, I decided to see for myself
how
this integration could be achieved. It was remarkably easy. There's
almost
no documentation for Spring, but none was needed. Nor, as it turned
out,
were any OS X or AppleScript skills required. Although it runs only on
OS
X today, Spring objects are wired together using the basic principles
that
I know and love: URL-based services, XML data, pipelined
transformations.

Spring Again, with Blood
Spring Again, with Blood
03/06/2004 02:06 AMWe had rare Pacific-Northwest February sunshine today, and girded our
loins for some serious pruning and cleaning. I took pictures and was
editing them and thought “decent, but I had pictures of spring
flowers (some of the same ones) this time last year.” Then I
realized that was stupid; do I not look at this year’s flowers
because I saw last year’s? And there are people who are living in
places where winter is probably starting to wear ’em down again who
might be cheered by a preview of what they’ll be seeing in a few
weeks. So herewith the same old crocuses and daffodils, but this story
has a pretty severe barb to it.
[Update: Identified the mystery
flower, worth checking out.]...

05/11/2004 01:32 PMAnne and I were training yesterday, doing the neighborhood route, and
we passed a bunch of animals: mostly other people walking dogs, but a
bunch of birds and some cats, too, including a tiny kitten who called
to us from the window of a neighbor's house when we passed. I thought
about our dogs and cats, and the birds that are nesting in my
backyard, and it made me happy.
Felix is doing really well, considering how close he was to death's
door just last week. He is eating a ton of food, and is super feisty.
I still don't want to get my hopes too high, but I think we have
weathered the latest storm.
Spring Framework

08/28/2004 01:03 AM
While I was playing around with MyEclipse 3.8.1 (quickly
delivered butt saving release to make up for the silly 3.8.0
version), I got sidetracked
into JavaServer
Faces (definitely
useful but seems to have the same disagreeable feel to it as
Struts) and
then fell into Spring
Framework. Hmm. I liked what I read in this introductory
article about the framework.
While I am not too hot on IoC (Inversion of Control), I like the
way Spring guys implemented
IoC. Most of all, I like the way Spring makes components
easier to test by reducing
dependency and enhancing configurability. Apparently, there
is an effort to
ease integration
between Spring and JSF which
I'll have to take a look at real soon.
Update:
There is a seemingly very nice Eclipse
plugin for Spring Framework you should take a look at if
you use Eclipse
and are interested in giving Spring a try.

This week is turning out to be a slow blogging week because I was
busy wrestling with
funky HTML email formats. Generating email is easy just as
generating HTML is
easy. Trying to make sense of all the wild variations and
loosy goosyness at
the receiving end is tougher and doing content surgery in route is
even tougher.
I did have some enjoyable time integrating Spring
Framework with the pure Java milter though. It took me
only a few hours
to wash most of the configuration mess out of code and into an XML
file. Nice.
Although I did notice the recent release of HiveMind 1.0
final, I went with Spring Framework because I felt more comfortable
with its design
and terminologies than HiveMind's. But then they are very
similar so which you
choose to use is just a matter of taste. HiveMind is fairly
small though because
it is boxed in by rest of Jakarta projects in terms of
functionalities. Joining
a community means having more toes and egos to avoid stepping onto.
Spring Framework, on the other hand, has a growing flotila of
integration packages.
Since I was short of time, I ignored them for now and used only the
core and context
packages.

A few photos from a trip to the Helsinki
Winter Garden just before Easter. The garden is enclosed in a
Victorian era greenhouse and hosts quite a nice succulent room, palm
room and room for various seasonal plants. Easter brings little baby
chicks to the Win
ter Garden that little kids press their faces up to the glass to
watch intently as they cheep and hop around. Tulips and daffodils also
add a splash of colour to the landscape inside the green canopy. It's
free to visit during its rather limited hours of operation and the
outdoor garden is beautiful during the summer when the flowers are in
bloom. It reminds me a lot of the Jewel
Box, an art deco conservatory, and Tower Grove
Park, a Victorian walking park, in St. Louis quite a bit since
they were all built during a time that building public gardens for all
people to enjoy was popular. I still miss living next to Tower Grove
Park as it was one of the most beautiful spots in the city.

Spring is a lightweight Java/J2EE application
framework based on code published in "Expert
One-on-One J2EE Design and Development"
by Rod Johnson. It includes powerful
JavaBeans-based configuration management
applying Inversion-of-Control principles, a
generic abstraction layer for transaction
management allowing for pluggable
transaction managers, a JDBC abstraction
layer, integration with Hibernate, JDO, Apache
OJB, and iBATIS SQL Maps, AOP functionality,
and a flexible MVC Web application framework
with multiple view technologies.
Changes:
The packages impacted by changes, updates, fixes, and new features
were aop, beans, context, core, ejb, jdbc, jms, mock, orm, remoting,
samples, scheduling, test, transaction, util, validation, and web.

If you aren't into books about war, corrupt politicians, oil,

Chicken Soup series or some variation on the theme of horseracing ala
Seabiscuit there are precious few new books to interest or excite save
for Tom Wolfe's upcoming novel finally getting a title and a
publication date. I spent a little while combing through about a dozen
publisher's upcoming books and it looks like it's going to be a slow
summer.

Feel
like doing a little spring cleaning? Remember that horrid olestra

to the fatty doritos because of the diarrhea stories? Apparently
there's some evidence that it clears a series of toxins, including
dioxin, from the bloodstream. Would've come in handy for
