302 Rapid Development of Rich Internet Applications With Eclipse
By Yakov Fain
Eclipse can help tremendously in development of rich Internet applications (RIA)—especially if you have the right plugins. During this presentation, we’ll walk through the highly automated process of creation of RIA using several Eclipse plugins. The first plugin will generate a CRUD application having Adobe Flex talking to POJO on the server, which in turn communicates with a DBMS. Then, another plugin will generate an ANT build script for this application. The third plugin will add logging capabilities, and finally, we’ll create and customize a fancy report based on the retrieved data. The presenter will annoy you with not more than five Power Point slides. He’ll spend the rest of this presentation developing the application described above.

304 Get More From Your Java Builds
By Steve Taylor
Amp up your continuous integration Java build process by increasing the frequency of your build loop. In this class, you’ll learn how to create a Java build that can quickly adapt to source code changes and drive down build times from hours to minutes. The easiest path to more frequent builds is to simply create an efficient process that does not require that you rebuild every Java object each time your build loop is initiated.
This session will outline the issues that cause your build times to increase. It will also show you how to move your Java builds away from a traditional waterfall approach to a truly agile process. If you’re a development manager, Java developer or SCM administrator who is supporting a continuous integration build process, this session will give you insight on how to create a truly agile build that will support your lean development practices.

306 RAP or GWT: Which Java-Based AJAX Technology Is for You?
By Dan Rubel and Mark Russell
With the release of RAP (Rich AJAX Platform) from Eclipse and GWT (Google Widget Toolkit) from Google, it’s easier than ever before to build AJAX applications using the strong typed Java language instead of the less-sophisticated JavaScript. Which technology is more suited to your needs? Dan Rubel and Mark Russell will review the same application implemented once using GWT and a second time using RAP to compare and contrast the two technologies, so that architects and developers can make informed decisions about which Java-based AJAX technology best suits their situation. Benefits, pitfalls, scalability and best practices of each will be covered. Come, compare and learn!

401 Model-Driven Java Development Using Eclipse
By Bruce Trask and Angel Roman
Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) brings together multiple technologies and critical innovations and formalizes them into the next wave of software development methods for Java.
This workshop covers the basics of MDE and how its maps to Eclipse’s application, modeling and graphical frameworks. We’ll focus on three main MDE categories: the development of Domain Specific Languages, Domain Specific Editors (including Domain Specific Visual Languages), and Domain Specific Transformation Engines or Generators.
Expressed in terms of language development technology, these areas mirror the development of the Abstract Syntax, Concrete Syntax and Semantics of a new Domain Specific Language. In this class, we’ll cover the basic effective patterns, principles and practices for developing these MDE software artifacts and targeting them at your Java development projects. This allows users to precisely model their Java applications and generate much of the code for it.
Additionally, this workshop details of how to leverage the Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF), the Eclipse Graphical Editor Framework (GEF) and the Eclipse Graphical Modeling Framework (GMF), to support the development of these three areas. It will concentrate on the Java facilities that these frameworks provide.

403 Caffeinated PHP: Mixing Java and PHP
By Kevin Schroeder
Contrary to all efforts (and marketing claims), there is no one programming language that is a perfect fit for every situation. Some do the Web well, others don’t. Some lend themselves to scalability, others don’t. In this talk we’ll look at different reasons and methods for integrating the world’s most popular general-purpose programming language with the world’s most popular Web-based programming language.
Some things you’ll learn in the class: PHP/Java Integration API; setting up Zend Studio for handling Code Completion for Java in PHP code; situations where you’d want to integration PHP and Java code; and code examples demonstrating best practices and techniques.

404 Classic Database Development Mistakes Made by Java Developers—and Five Ways to Overcome Them
By Scott Walz
According to analyst calculations, traditional developers are taking on more database work, with 64 percent of Eclipse users developing in SQL Server at least some of the time. It’s an unfortunate fact of life for most Java developers who aren’t proficient in database coding and can find themselves spending countless hours correcting performance bottlenecks in the database tier.
However, this class shows that with the right tips and tricks to optimize code for given database platforms, developers can develop the highest performing database code the first time. This technical session outlines the five most common database development mistakes made by Java developers and offers specific guidance to overcome them.
Learn how to develop efficient database code, how to attack slow-performing queries, how to use stored objects to your advantage, the benefit of well-formed SQL and other practical tips to boost database performance.

405 Migrating Your Graphical Editor to the Graphical Modeling Framework
By Anthony Hunter
The Eclipse Graphical Modeling Framework offers a generative component and runtime infrastructure for developing a Domain Specific Modeler (DSM). GMF, which includes both a modeling framework and an editing framework, is a powerful platform for any developer who wishes to use these two technologies in their application.
In this class, we’ll start by demonstrating how to build a DSM with GMF, focusing on the features provided by the GMF Runtime. We’ll highlight the many features of the GMF Runtime that you’d have to code by hand using EMF and GMF directly.
Next, we’ll demonstrate the extensibility provided by the GMF Runtime. Rather than break and modify the generated code created by the generation framework, you’ll learn how to use the extension points provided by the runtime to extend your DSM, and be ready to hit the ground running when you get back to your own projects.

408 Portable Java Application Development
By Pete Carapetyan
The world's leading application servers are powerful, but sometimes the tools built for them lag behind the emerging technologies. All the cool open standards in the world are of less use when your tools don't support their capabilities. This leaves you either unable to take advantage of the technology, or jump through mutliple hoops to export their functionality into your projects.
In this class, we'll show you how you can leverage the latest in open standard technologies for these platforms without sacrificing time, money or support contracts. Get up and running with technologies like JPA, Hibernate, Spring and more for these popular platforms – without the hassle.
