My Eclipse 3.6 froze today at startup. I think what I did was that I clicked on the shortcut a bit too fast and two instances of Eclipse started running at the same time. I got an error message for one saying “workspace in use”. I killed the one that showed the error message but [...]

More info – old issue but I ran into it on every freaking machine at home. After I installed the m2eclipse plugin on Eclipse 3.6, I keep getting the following warning on the console: The solution that worked for me is changing the shortcut properties for eclipse e.g. I couldn’t get the eclipse.ini updates to [...]

After I started using JUnit 4, I really want Eclipse to automatically import org.junit.Assert.* statically for me. So when I do ctrl+space on methods like assertTrue, it will do: for me. I’ve figured it out for a while but I’ve been noticing it conflicting with my save action -> organize imports setting. I finally got [...]

After the cijug presentation on Grails, I’ve decided I will not use it. I know Grails is hot and cool but I don’t like it. It’s probably just a personal preference. Why don’t I want to use Grails It’s built on spring and hibernate, so why not just use them directly? It’s just adding another [...]
jQuery UI even though you disappointed me, I still figured you out
Posted by: pureessence on: June 6, 2011
So I upgraded to jQuery UI version 1.8.2 at work and thought that I should instead of using the autocomplete plugin which is deprecated, switch over to use the jQuery UI build-in autocomplete widget. jQuery UI autocomplete widget is NOTHING like the original jQuery autocomplete plugin!!! At least by jQuery UI version 1.8.2 it’s not. [...]
Eclipse: stop it from searching certain directories

It’s always annoying when you do a search (ctrl+h) in Eclipse and it produces results from directories you do not care about. In my particular case, the project’s ant build expands the built war files into a directory named target. Since this directory duplicates the files in the regular WebContent directory, often times I end [...]

A coworker and I were chatting regarding spring rowMappers and I did a little more research and found the following: Spring’s simpleJdbcTemplate deprecated methods with parameterizedRowMapper in spring 3. The class ParameterizedRowMapper is not deprecated. Spring’s jdbcTemplate however only has methods that take RowMapper<T> so it will continue to work with parameterizedRowMapper. But it seems [...]

Eclipse 3.6 toggle comment findings
Posted by: pureessence on: May 20, 2011
Despite of the usual convention of using ctrl+/, I found ctrl+shift+c is actually the way to go if you want it to work on everything. I care mostly about being able to toggle comment in the following file types: source code – comment with // or /* and */ block markup e.g. xml/html – comment [...]
