We announced our plans to migrate to the newest version of xcode recently and so far these plans have gone rather well with most tests passing without a problem. We did decide to disable bitcode by default which means the new build hint ios.bitcode will now default to false to avoid issues with some libraries that are still not up to date. One point of confusion from that update was whether iphone_new should still be used. The ans..

When you start out as a developer there’s an overwhelming amount of things to grasp. First there’s the language itself, then all the quirks of the specific framework you’re using,and after that (or maybe before) we’ll throw front-end development into the mix, and somewhere along the line you have to decide to store your data somewhere. Early on, with so many things to quickly master, the database tends to be an after-though in application....

Learning is a way of life for a developer. Frequently we are exposed to techniques and tips such as: keybindings, shell commands, utilities, new functions/methods, new applications. While learning, we want to keep on remembering the previous techniques and tips that we've learned so that we can keep them fresh and on our tool belt. It is not uncommon to forget some learned knowledge if you don't use it often. I would like to present my ....

Dr. Sbaitso is one of our newer demos. We wrote it for a workshop at JavaZone a couple of years ago and it proved to be an excellent tutorial on many complex abilities of Codename One. It captures images from the camera, rounds them, does dynamic search with a chat like bubble interface… Check the live version running on the right hand side thanks to the power of the Codename One JavaScript port!

With the upcoming library update this weekend we will remove the venerable (old) skins that are baked into the simulator. This means that they will no longer be immediately accessible but you can still download all of them thru the Skins → More menu option. The chief motivations for this are to keep the distribution smaller (our plugin just crossed the 100MB mark which isn’t great) & to keep the skins up to date. Some of the newer s..

Being an open source software maintainer is hard. The following post is geared towards maintainers and not contributors. If you are a new contributor to open source I would stop reading now because I don’t want you to get the wrong idea or discourage you. Tons of patch requests get merged per day, but this is going to focus on the ones that don’t. I’ve talked to maintainers from several different open source projects, mesos, kubernetes, c....

In the short story ‘Poseidon’, by Franz Kafka, the great god of the sea is said to be unhappy with his role of administrating all of Earths bodies of water. The punchline is that due to his dismissal of his assistants as unskilled for the tasks he deems so important, he is him self a prisoner of his own ego. Drowning in paperwork, he is never to be able to make time to experience the oceans he oversees.

The corporate server offering has always been controversial and problematic both within Codename One & for the customers who bought that service. We struggled a lot with trying to get it just right but with every installation we ran into a painful reminder of exactly why we chose to use the cloud. After discussing this with our existing corporate customers we came to the conclusion that we need something better that would still addres..

I just listened to The Changelog Episode 201 on SQLite with Richard Hipp. Completely fascinating. This project is completely on outlier on so many different facets. It is one of the most widely-used software projects of all time. It is the work of a very small team (3 engineers I believe have done the vast majority of the coding). Richard codes it in a text editor he wrote (I believe Linus Torvalds also uses a custom editor he wrote)...

uk transfers are a little different: You instruct your old registrar to change the "IPS tag" to point the domain to your new registrar. You tell your new registrar that the domain just assigned to them is yours. The new registrar then dutifully updates all of Nominet's records. Even if the name... email... address... you provided them with bears no relation to the existing (private?) registration information. Who cares if you had 2 fact....

On the last day of the Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing, I sat on stage with four developers watching incredulously as 150 stadium seats filled to capacity. Named for the computer programming pioneer and Navy Admiral Grace Hopper, this conference is the world’s largest gathering of women technologists, and our workshop, #TechAtAnyAge, was the very last session of the 3-day event.

The restarted edition includes all posts made since then, making it pretty massive. I can't commit to a specific timeframe, but I hope that it will be a few months at most before I have it out. There may be opportunities for reader involvement in checking and polishing it, so watch this space. ..
