Taking advantage of the long break between our regular 2nd and 4th Tuesday Beautiful Code sessions, WingDings will be taking a brief look at the Scala ...
The Eclipse plugin for Scala is in transition, but I did find an Eclipse plugin that works with Eclipse 3.3. First, I downloaded a fresh Eclipse Classic...
I'd pretty much given up on the Scala eclipse plug-in. On my Mac you didn't get syntax highlighting until you Saved and Tab Off + Tab On a given file and it...

Hi Windingers, I missed the scala meet-up last week, so sorry if this is a retread. Did anyone else do the "simplify" procedure that they leave as an exercise...
Thanks for the contribution, Chris, and I don't believe anyone did try to implement simplify. Well done! We're still not really sure what direction to take...
So, last evening was my first with this study group, and I just wanted to say thanks! I hope that I can contribute as time goes on. I know we are almost...
Ross, I liked most of the chapters that I've read or at least parts of them (I actually fell asleep twice when reading population count chapter - but managed...
I share Piotr's opinion that theres been something new to learn in each chapter so far and I've found every session interesting, even if some of them were just...
I read chapter 27 yesterday. It's an absolute abomination! I obviously can't stop anyone from reading it, but don't get the idea that what he is describing in...
The Video/PDF combo Cris found is really quite good. At least it is better than that "Overview" we covered at the coffee shop. I especially like the...

For the March 11 meeting Linus will lead the discussion of Chapter 21 ERP5: Designing for Maximum Adaptability. We then need to prioritize the remaining 20...

The results are in on how to close out the Beautiful Code iteration. The next four topics are: 32: Code in Motion, by Laura Wingerd and Christopher Seiwald,...
Thats actually what I'm hoping for as well. Any volunteers for a "style-oriented" topic for March 25? "Whats new in JDBC 4" could be interesting, anyone,...
I could maybe cover profiling in Netbeans. (JFluid runs on a Mac, right?) On Wed, Mar 12, 2008 at 11:36 AM, Robert Kuhar <robertkuhar@...> ... -- -...

It did for me in the past (netbeans 6 RC, jboss 4.2.1, Leopard < 15.2). It's not working now after re-installing the os (netbeans 6.0.1, jboss 4.2.2, Leopard...
Yes. Time permitting, I'd also like to cover the evolution of XML class and object models, DOM -> DOM4J -> JDOM -> XOM -> LOX, and pointing out how every wild...
Great, so there's our schedule for the next few meetings: March 25: Chapter 32: Code in Motion, by Laura Wingerd and Christopher Seiwald. Piotr will moderate....

He never really explains why this is a bad idea, other than to fall back on dogma. Well, and yelling. He simply dismisses the banking example out of hand....

... Said another way: FP is "good for you" but that doesn't mean it's going anywhere. Unless... Whenever life is tough in the real world, functional...
I don't think that applied STM is going to look like normal code with some 'atomic' blocks sprinkled in as this rant suggests. It won't work that way, just...
