Announcing GwtGL - develop WebGL apps in Java

I'd like to announce the availability of the first version of GwtGL, a WebGL binding for GWT.
Here is a brief description of the project:
WebGL is a new web standard for hardware accelerated 3D graphics in web browsers. Soon all major web browsers (Firefox, Safari, Chrome, IE) will support WebGL - at the moment most of these browsers offer preview version that can be used to experience WebGL powered apps.
WebGL is based on OpenGL ES, so porting apps and games to the web is quite easy.
WebGL is a javascript API, so you would have to program your application using javascript.
This is where GwtGL comes into play. Using GwtGL, which is Open Source and free to use, you can develop WebGL apps using the Java language, using your favorite Java IDE (e.g. Eclipse), using powerful Java tools.
GWT (Google Web Toolkit), GwtGL's underlying technology, uses a cross-compiler to compile your Java code to Javascript that can be run in the web browser. The compiler optimizes your code, so your app will probably run faster than it would if you coded it in Javascript directly.
With the first release of GwtGL we provide a complete binding for WebGL, so everything that is possible with WebGL directly is also possible using GwtGL. Besides that, GwtGL offers a wrapper layer on top of the binding to allow the developer to program in an object oriented, easier way. We also released some docs with explanations and tutorials, and some examples that you can use as a starting point for your own apps.
More info and a download package can be found at the project website @ [http://code.google.com/p/gwtgl/|http://code.google.com/p/gwtgl/] .
I'd like to get some feedback from you on your experiences or your opinion regarding this project.
Best regards,
Soenke

Developing mobile apps for the blackberry platform

Hello all
I'm interested in developing mobile apps for the Blackberry smartphone and read that the best way to do it is with Java. Any advice on how to do this?
I would be starting from scratch as I don't have a programming background but am keen to learn. Also can anyone recommend any introductory books that are really good at learning Java?
Many Thanks
praetor

Hi praetor,
welcome to the SDN.
Programming for a mobile device is sort of advanced and you need to know the basics first. As you have no programming background this is even more important.
Do yourself a favor and forget about the blackberry for a few months and learn programming basics first.

Developing iPhone apps using SDK - what hardware to use?

I am planning on developing iPhone apps but am new to the Mac. I have 20 years of development experience but all on PC and web/java side.
I was planning on buying a MacBook 13" with 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo and 2 Gig of RAM. In your experience is this enough power to develop apps using the SDK.
What hardware configs do you any of you developers use to run the iPhone SDK?
Thanks in advance

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
The iPhone software development kit simply requires an intel processor-based Macintosh, running the current release of Mac OS X 10.5. Your questions can be answered by browsing the iPhone developer site, starting here.

How to develop web app by ADF Faces rich web client ?

i want developer web app by adf face rich
but have not adf rich tag library in jdev 10.1.3
how to develop by adf rich?

Hi,
don't know what you mean by ADF Faces rich web client, but if you mean our Ajax component set, then this is not yet available outside of Oracle. If you mean ADF Faces as we have it in JDeveloper 10.1.3, create a JSF page and step through the creation process, toggle the ADF Faces libraries to make ADF Faces available

What are the system requirements to develop ipad apps?

So I'm in the Apple store with $10k burning a hole in my pocket. I am a windows developer and now want to start developing mobile apps for the ipad and iphone that will go as far as magazines with video.
But no-one has a clue what system I need. The only thing they will say is...anything that runs snow leopard.
Well, that's a bit of an issue. I need something with some obvious horsepower in ram and on the harddisk. Since apple manages memory and code differently than a windows machine, I have no idea what to buy. Do I need a dual processor or not?
So I'm in the store and I register online to the ios sdk, because they are quoting a readme document that details the full system requirements. But it's nowhere to be found. I am then told that I have to download the whole sdk to get access to this readme document. Funny, but I haven't bought the system yet to download it to.....chicken and egg, right?
So can someone out there please tell me how much it's going to cost to get into the game, to create the magazines with video content, similar to National Geographic? I don't want to buy some cheap leopard machine only to find out that I can't upgrade the memory or that I have to get a different machine because what I bought was inadequate for my applications, because it wasn't fast enough to process etc....
To develop a magazine with video and photo content, similar to National Geographic, what system do I need to purchase, and what are the exact specs on memory and processors etc....
thanks!

I know nothing about iOS; however, the best machine, IMO, would be the new 27" i7 iMac. Get 3rd-party RAM to go to 16 GB, and get the video card update. Whether or not you want an SSD is a personal choice. For me, it's not worth the cost, just get a 2 TB internal HD. That's all the hand-holding I can offer.

Can't add images to announcements in SharePoint-hosted app in Office 365

I tried something very simple:
Create a new SharePoint-hosted app
Add a new list to the app, based on the Announcements template
Deploy the app to my Dev site on Office 365
When I now add a new item (aka a new announcement) and try to add an image to the Body field, I encounter two errors (depending on whether I try to add an image from my Computer or from SharePoint)
Adding from my computer gives me an unexpected error:
Adding from SharePoint shows me a structure of all the apps in my hostweb, but no way to upload an image either to the hostweb or the appweb:
Is it not possible to add images to a Rich Text field in a list in an app?

Hi Rene,
For inserting any image from you computer to you App web, you need to create a separate picture library in your app web manually i.e. in your SharePoint hosted app add a new list item, under list settings window choose "create a list instance
base on existing list template" and in the drop down select
picture library. Now deploy the app and try again.
Generally when we insert any image from our computer to a SharePoint rich text field, the image gets upload in one of the document libraries, but this option is not available in the newly created app web, as it doesn't contains any separate library..
For you next error, make sure that in the app manifest you are providing
read access on the web, this will resolve you second problem.
Hope it helps you.....

Which product should i use to develop iOS apps ?

Hello, my name is Michael and i'm 10 years old. I got a new iMac for my birthday and thinking about developing iOS apps. Can you please tell me an honest program since there is so many scams out there. I have tried programs such as GameSalad and Corona, but you have to share your profits with GameSalad. And Corona won't let you develop apps unless you pay the 200 $\mth fee.
Sincerely,
your friend Michael.

You must be at least 18 to submit apps to the App Store.
if your dad (or another responsible adult) will sign up for a paid developer account and accept responsiblity for said account (and employ you as an 'employee'), then you could have your apps submitted to the App Store.

Is there or can Microsoft develop a app for smart TVs so you can stream from Windows Media Center

I have used Windows Media Center for years to record TV programs and have even sertup my kids Xbox 360 as an extender. I've recently purchased a smart TV which allows me to steam music and home videoes from Windows media player but ofcourse the .wtv
files will not play. Would it be possible to develop an app for Smart TVs and other devices so they can be used as extenders. I'm sure many people would be willing to pay for the app. I've tried some 3rd party extenders and not been
happy with there performance and I'd like to not need another box and remote. I'm sure these new TVs have the ability to do it will microsoft allow them too?

Hi,
I agree with S.Sengupta.
You may contact the support of the smart TVs and request a tool to match Windows media player.
Hope it helps.

Process in developing iPhone apps

Hi,
I have a little programming experience with PHP, ActionScript 3.0, JavaScript and I was wondering how hard would it be to learn Obejective C, I believe this is the language to use to developing apps for the iPhone if I’m not mistaking.
1- Can someone help me understand the process in developing iPhone apps?
2- Is Objective C the programming language used by Apple to develop iPhone and MacOsX apps?
3- What’s Xcode? Is it a different language?
4- What’s COCOA?
5- Is it the same process for develop iPhone apps as for MacOsX apps?
6- Where can I start learning more?
Sorry! I’m a complete newbie.

Which is best web service framework for developing web services in Java?

Hi Friends,
I want to develop web services using Java 1.5.
But I am in confusion with different frameworks provides to develop WS.
Like
1) Apache axis
2) Java Web Service dev. Pack
3) JSON-RPC-Java
4) Web Ser. Invocation Pack
5) XFire
Can some one guide which framework should I use?
OR where will i get useful comparison between this frameworks?

Hi,
Personally I have used:
1. XFire
2. Apache Axis
3. Java Web Service Pack
My personal opinion / .02 cents?
1. XFire is awesome and very easy to set up and get running. They also have a great community / mailing lists. We use it in some production systems and it runs great.
2. Apache AXIS 1/2 made me want to dive out the window and go splat just short of the double yellow line on the road. Pain in the butt to set up and get running. Way too complex. Really bad docs / tutorials / support.
3. Java Web Service Pack - I really prefer NetBeans 5.5 and the JWSP. Easy to build services, cohesive enviroment. You can get the job done.
That's my two cents.

Inquire about the best laptop specifications for Developing Windows Apps and 3D modelling Animation using "Kinect for Windows v2"?

I need some help in choosing laptop that is most compatible with "Kinect for Windows v2"; in order to develop Windows Apps, and 3D modelling Animation and Character Design. Which is better (Specifications):
HP Pavilion Notebook PC 15-p150ne
AMD A10-5745M +
AMD Radeon R7 M260 (2 GB DDR3L dedicated) +
4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3, OR
HP Pavilion Notebook PC 15-p034ne
Intel Core i5-4210U + NVIDIA GeForce 840M (2 GB DDR3 dedicated) + 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3L

The second system with the Intel chipset will more than likely have the Intel USB3 chipset required for Kinect. As for GPU they are similar, but the i5 with DDR3 1600MHZ ram is a better option. Keep in mind, if you are doing anything in-depth for
3D, a laptop isn't the best options, but if you have to go mobile then you have to decide what is best for your requirements.

Wanting to develop iOS app on Azure for sharing recorded audio stories/narratives

I'm about to start developing an app for iPhone (and eventually Android) that should allow users to:
-record audio narratives
-upload those audio narratives to azure
-browse and listen to the audio narratives that others users have uploaded
-I really want to be able to stream these narratives for playback instead of just downloading or doing a progressive download
I've been trying to use Azure and its media services to achieve this, but I really haven't found any good documentation for audio streaming, especially with iOS/objective-c. There seems to be a lot on video streaming, but nothing on audio.
I'm not an inexperienced developer, but I have never messed with media streaming, and I am fairly new to iOS. Any suggestions? Is Azure the right way to go? Do I really need to stream or would progressive download really be good
enough in my case? Would I be able to get far enough using the video streaming tutorials? (ie, is the code for streaming video and audio pretty much the same?) Are there any other third party services or APIs that would work well to accomplish
this in conjunction with Azure? Any other insights or links to documentation would be great. The only real constraint is that we want to do this on iOS first (vs switching to Android or other platform, though eventually we do want to expand
to other platforms). Thank you!

Unfortunately, the burden is on the app developers to make their stuff fit with the iOS, not on Apple to accommodate them. Uninstalling and reinstalling is probably your only fix. And if their app isn't compatible with iOS7, then you may be needing to look for a new app.
I'd just go ahead and delete it and reinstall it. Chances are that file either isn't there or is corrupt and won't work anyway.
