Development Tools: Which of them i really need?

Hi, guys! I've just started to learn Java language & gonna develop midlets for most modern wireless devices. Please tell me what tools i really need to download. I've already downloaded Wireless Toolkit (with latest patch) & JRE. I guess i need some IDE, but its very difficult to get it through dyal-up connection... How can download the compiler and some tools for debuging without downloading IDE?

Thanks prometheuzz! ...I just don't know why i
didn't come across that tute.You're welcome.

Which machine do i really need?

ok i just found out i will be getting about 3300 bucks for my tax return next year. i am contemplating one of 2 options. first an almost fully loaded 13 inch macbook air( 2ghz processor, 8 gigs of ram and 256gb ssd) and a cinema display or... a macbook pro retina with 8 gigs of ram. Now here is where im unsure what to get. I just started going back to school full time and I am a network security and admin major. So i wont be doing any graphic design, photo, audio or video editing. Size and weight are concerns. For the computer itself 1.5 pounds may not seem like a lot on paper but humping it around campus all day does make a difference. So that is one concern, another is i need a machine that will be pretty ballsy for at least the next 3 years untill my senior year when i plan on buying another machine if i have to. I'd like it to get me through all 4 years. Im just unsure a dual core will be adequate for my needs for that amount of time but i can also see needing a beast of a machine like the MBPr being kinda overkill for my needs aswell. also like i said the size and weight are a concern. so im looking for opinions. With either machine i would have to have an external monitor when when im not portable, the cinema display just allows me to not have to manager a large usb hub, an ethernet to usb adapter(my dorms doesnt have wifi) and it would give me a very large and beautiful screen do do things on. i like simplicity and all in one things. It might also be noted that i have a 2012 13 inch macbook air (base model) now and it is adequate for now but with the 4 gigs of ram i can see it not being so in a year 2 at the most. it was a gift from my dad and he isnt computer savy at all so it probably never crossed his mind to get more ram. anyhow back on point, what are your opinions on my predicament?

switching platforms as in going to windows? dont really see that happening. linux maybe.. but i can run it in a virtual machine on my mac unless im mistaken. i also get what your saying about waiting, but i am someone who likes to have a plan well in advance for things. if things drastically chance before then i will revise my plan but as of right now i still want to have one.

DocFlex/Javadoc 1.5.6, a multi-format doclet development tool and more

DocFlex/Javadoc is both a multi-format Javadoc Doclet and a rapid doclet development tool, which allows easy creation of professional quality Java API documentation generated by Javadoc in various output formats.

KEY FEATURES
Template-driven doclet architecture
- Actual doclets are created in the form of special templates interpreted by the DocFlex Doclet, which is the template interpreter / output generator wrapped in the form of a Javadoc Doclet.
- The high quality graphic Template Designer allows you to visually design most of things, whose development was possible so far only by direct Java coding.
- The templates are designed independently on a particular output format. All formatting is specified in some universal way using properties of template components. During the generation, it is rendered with the suitable features available in the selected output format.
- The elaborated support of template parameters (including multivalued list parameters). The parameters are defined and accessed within templates to adjust dynamic properties of template components. Most of options previously used to control an ordinary doclet now simply become template parameters!
- The possibility to call templates from one another. This feature (along with the template parameters) makes possible re-using the same templates for different tasks as well as organizing template libraries.
Data processing
- The entire Doclet API is represented in the form of a virtual XML document (called Doclet DSM), on which the designing and processing of all templates is based.
- Sophisticated capabilities for data querying and sorting based on an extension of XPath.
- Full support of new Java 5.0 language features: Generic Types, Enums, Annotations.
- Simultaneous support of Java 1.4 and Java 5.
Creating hyperlinks
- Generation of an extensive network of hyperlinks interconnecting the whole documentation.
- The hyperlinks can be generated in all output formats that support them (this currently includes HTML and RTF).
- The universal way of defining documentation cross-links based on the link/target keys specified in templates.
- In RTF, the cross-links can be generated in the form of page number references, which effectively makes them usable even in the printed documentation.
- In HTML, the possibility of loading several frame windows from a single hyperlink at once.
Universal support of various formatting techniques
- text formatting: fonts, colors, borders
- paragraph formatting: margins, pagination control, borders, colors
- border formatting: styles (solid, double, dashed, dotted), thickness, colors
- tables: arbitrary cell layouts, borders, nested tables
- lists: bulleted, numbered, delimited
- document fields (RTF): page number, number of pages, TOC, etc.
- page formatting: size, orientation, margins, headers/footers
- formatting styles
- rendering of embedded HTML, which means interpreting in non-HTML output formats (such as RTF) the HTML tags embedded in text data (e.g. documentation comments). Almost all HTML tags practically usable in doc-comments are supported.
Inserting images
- statically specified in templates
- dynamically, obtained by <img> tags found in Java comments
- supported image formats: GIF, PNG, JPG, WMF, EMF, BMP
Output formats
- HTML (both framed multi-file and single-file output)
- RTF (version 1.6 - supported since Word 2000).
- TXT (plain text), which may be particularly useful for various utilizations of the Java code information provided by the Doclet API generate XML files by it, or SQL files to import into a database).
Standard Template Set
- The ready-to-use Standard Template Set included in all editions of DocFlex/Javadoc allows you to immediately generate:
(*) The framed HTML Java API documentation similar to that generated by the standard Javadoc.
(*) The same documentation packed in a single HTML file.
(*) The unmatched quality RTF JavaDoc.
- Special features supported by standard templates:
(*) Excluding classes/methods/fields by custom tags and annotations.
(*) Selective omitting of package qualifiers.
(*) Selective documenting of custom tags (similar to -tag option of Standard Doclet).
- By modifying the standard templates, you can quickly customize the generated documentation according to your needs.
Doclet GUI
- Besides command line options, DocFlex Doclet supports an alternative user-friendly way to control the template-based doclets interactively -- the high quality Doclet GUI.
- The Doclet GUI starts with the Generator Dialog, where you can specify all general settings (such as the main template, the output format and the output directory), start the generation, track its progress and stop at any moment you need.
- The grid-tree-based Parameter Inspector invoked from the Generator Dialog for a selected template allows you to view the descriptions of all template parameters controlling the doclet and set their values according to the parameter data types.
- The generator options specific for the selected output format can be set in the corresponding Format Option Inspector (also invoked from the Generator Dialog).
- Once the generation is finished (or cancelled), you can start it again with different settings or a new main template without restarting the whole Javadoc.
Integrations
- With any system that runs Javadoc (in particular, see below)
- Apache Ant
- Apache Maven 2
- Eclipse
For lots more information, see DocFlex/Javadoc homepage: [http://www.filigris.com/products/docflex_javadoc/]
AVAILABILITY
DocFlex/Javadoc comes in two editions:
(1) The full edition called "DocFlex/Javadoc" as it is. This is commercial software, which includes all the implemented functionality.
(2) The reduced freeware edition called "DocFlex/Doclet". It includes only the output generator and can be used as an interpretor of any custom templates. It also includes the standard template set, which allows you to instantly use it as an HTML doclet (similar to the standard one, however with some special features) plus an excellent quality RTF doclet.
Both editions are available for downloads on the page: [http://www.filigris.com/downloads/]
THIS VERSION
New features:
- The template interpretor works 15-20% faster
- Improvement of RTF output
- Multi-valued (list) template parameters
- Custom elements
- Standard Templates: Selective documenting of custom tags (similar to -tag option of standard doclet)

WHAT IS DOCFLEX?
DocFlex is an innovative technology for development of high quality template-driven documentation/report generators by any kind of data obtained from various software applications via the Java APIs they provide.
MAIN CONCEPTS
The whole DocFlex technology is based on four generalizations:
(1) The mapping of an entire Java API onto a virtual XML-like representation made of some elements and attributes so as to process any such a representation in a universal way using techniques borrowed from the field of XML, like XPath (or more precisely, a conceptual analogue of XPath with some extensions not present in it).
(2) The abstract formatting concept based on four layouts (flow of text, flow of paragraphs or paragraph-like objects, tables and lists), which can be rendered in most modern document formats (e.g. HTML, RTF, XSL-FO etc.)
(3) The automatic generation of hyperlinks (or their page number reference equivalents) by matching the sets of keys produced from certain natural properties of the things (entities) being documented and hyper-linked.
(4) The representation of the object controlling structure of the output generator (made on the first three principles) in the form of a plain-text template with a possibility to create and edit such templates using a graphic Template Designer, which visualizes the controlling objects (now becoming template components) in a form resembling the output they will produce.
OTHER APPLICATIONS
In fact, DocFlex/Javadoc is not the only application of DocFlex technology. The following is a summary of other DocFlex software:
DocFlex/XML
The SDK and runtime environment for rapid development and execution of template-driven automatic documentation/report generators by any data obtained from XML files.
This is currently the most complex and advanced application of DocFlex technology. Actually, this tool can be considered a powerful alternative to XSLT. At least, it is definitely able to do what XSLT apparently not (for example, see XSDDoc below). We will publish a more detailed comparison DocFlex/XML versus XSLT with the next DocFlex/XML release, which is coming very soon.
DocFlex/XML home page: [http://www.filigris.com/products/docflex_xml/]
DocFlex/XML | XSDDoc
A template set for DocFlex/XML that implements a high quality W3C XML Schema documentation generator in HTML and RTF output formats.
For more details, please see: [http://www.filigris.com/products/docflex_xml/xsddoc/]
DocFlex/XML | WSDLDoc
A similar template set for DocFlex/XML that will implement a high-end WSDL documentation generator.
This product is not released yet.
DocFlex/Together
A template-driven documentation generator for [Borland Together|http://www.borland.com/us/products/together/] (which is a UML modeling tool).
This is the earliest application of DocFlex technology and probably the most beautiful one. It works only with Together Architect 1.x, which is now obsolete. Unfortunately, since Together 2005, Borland eliminated any open APIs (for unknown reasons). Because of this, further development of DocFlex/Together was impossible.
DocFlex/Together home page: [http://www.filigris.com/products/docflex_together/]
See also examples of the UML documentation generated with it: [http://www.filigris.com/products/docflex_together/examples/]
The future DocFlex/UML is going to generate something like this as well.
DocFlex/UML
A template-driven UML documentation generator based on [Eclipse EMF|http://www.eclipse.org/emf/]. This tool is in early development stage yet. In a sense, it will continue DocFlex/Together with the focus on integration with other UML tools that use Eclipse EMF.

Now, DocFlex/Javadoc v1.4 has been released specifically dedicated to Linux (Mac OS X) support:
(*) Some early bugs have been fixed, which prevented it working properly under Linux.
(*) A special RTF option was introduced to generate OpenOffice.org friendly RTF (see below)
(*) Improved support for external document viewers.
(*) Now, DocFlex/Javadoc software includes the shell script files prepared to quickly install and launch it under Linux
New RTF option
A new RTF output option "Tune output for MS Word� has been introduced. This option, actually, allows switching off that very tuning (which until now was the default mode) to produce an RTF friendly to open with other non MS Word applications, e.g. OpenOffice.org Writer under Linux.

How to install Developer Tools via command line

Hello,
is there a way, to install the Developer Tool via Command line?
I need only the unix tools.
I have to install the unix tools over a ssh connection.
Thanks in advance and best regards
Martin

I followed the link you gave. The only download I saw was for Xcode 4, and they either wanted $5 to purchase it from the app store or a 1 year mac developer license thing which was $100.

Reinstall xcode to get unix development tools

I am running 10.6.8 (snow leopard) and do not wish to upgrade.
I have xcode installed, ver. 3.2.6, but it seems it was installed without the unix development tools which I now need to install MacPorts. Since 3.2.6 is the last version that is compatible with snow leopard, it would seem I can't just upgrade, but must reinstall.
My questions are:
a. Must I uninstall then reinstall, or can I install over?
b. Must I use the original cds, or can I use the downloaded version dmg to install the UDTs...I vaguely remember reading that the two are different, but don't remember how.
Thanks

Uninstall the current version of Xcode. Download Xcode 3.2.6 from Apple's Developer Connection (you may need to setup a free account). Then do a custom install.

Safari scrolls to bottom when filling out form with developer tools in use

I love the Safari developer tools and use them all the time, but one behaviour is driving me up the wall. Whenever I have the developer tools open (whether for the error console, the web inspector, etc.) and I try to enter data in a form on the page, for every character I type or control I click, the page scrolls to the bottom. I end up having to close developer tools (not great if what I'm typing is to see the result in the tools) or typing blindly. Scrolling back to the form doesn't work, because it scrolls to the bottom again for the next character typed or control clicked.
I'm using Safari 4.0.5 on Snow Leopard, but this behaviour has been consistent for some time in earlier versions of Safari and on Leopard. Any tips for changing this would be greatly appreciated.

HI and Welome to Apple Discussions...
Make sure Safari is opening in 32-bit mode, not 64. Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode. Also, (in that same window) make sure Safari is NOT running in Rosetta.
If you still have problems, go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop. Relaunch Safari. If you can use Safari / Dev tools, then that .plist file needs to be moved to the Trash.

Development tools for java

HI,
I am new in java. i know there are tools like netbeans to develop java in Windows Mode in Linux. But i want to know is there any tools like netbeans for developing java which will work from terminal window of linux ( black screen) ??
Like TC3 , i used to use it to develop C++ from Dos mode.
like TC3 , is there any development tools that i can run from Black screen of linux ( Terminal service / Command prompt), because i like to use black screen of linux ( command prompt)
I will appreciate any help from any one.
Kind regards
Fosiul

I know vi and Jstar also work.
but problem is you cant compile in vi or jstar, u have to save , then have to quit then compile from command prompt. but netbeans - you can compile in same windows. or like Tc3 , you can compile by pressing f9( i think) ,
but jstar or vi does not give any options ,it just the text eidtor.
thats why i am asking , if any one know , any development tools which will work as a compiler and has graphics interface like TC3 for linux command prompt.

Need "Developer Tools"

I have been struggling to convert Windows Eudora eMail to Mac Eudora eMail, and have enlisted the aid of one of the original Eudora developers to help me with what has turned out to be a difficult task.
He says I need a "developer tool" that can "set filetype to TEXT" for the Eudora mailboxes, and then Eudora on the Mac should recognize them. He says I should be able to find this tool on the OSX installation DVDs. He directed me to the info on this web page:
http://www.xs4all.nl/~jlpoutre/BoT/Mac-OSX tifffor_ABBYYFineReader.html
(hope that URL works)
I am not sure what the "developer tool" is, exactly, nor where to find it on the OSX, nor how to install it if I can find it. Can somebody please direct me to the right utility? Is it something called "Terminal" ?
Does anybody even know what I'm talking about? If so, please type slowly... this is all like really new to me and I really don't want to do anything that will trash my OS.
Thanks,
--PS

While you can use the developer tool that is suggested, you can also use AppleScript for this. No need to install anything.
Open the Script Editor (Applications/AppleScript). Copy and paste the following into a Script Editor window--
tell application "Finder"
set x to selection as string
set file type of file x to "TEXT"
set creator type of file x to "CSOm"
end tell
Save the file with some appropriate name. You can save it as a "script".
To use,
1. open the script with Script Editor
2. find a Windows mail file you want to work with and highlight it.
3. go back to the Script Editor and click "Run"
The Eudora file that you highlighted will have its file type set to TEXT and the creator type set to CMOs which is the unique identifier for Eudora.

Do I need the QT development tools?

Hey,
I've installed some KDE apps recently and I've noticed that QT development tools have also been installed. Do I need these? Or can I remove them?
thanks

That's really a question only you can answer. If other packages depend on it, Pacman will say so when you try to uninstall it.

Which Azure services would I need for a readily developed application?

Hello...
Sorry if there's already an somewhere on here for this... I found similar questions but all seem to be related to "building" apps on Azure. In my case, we have an already built application. So here's the deal:
We are considering hosting our application on the cloud, so I would like some clarifications/suggestions on what the suitable option is for us on Azure. I'm not very versed on computing/network infrastructure;
I'm just doing a preliminary research to see what is out there for us.
Here's an overview of our application and needs:
Our software, among other uses, is mainly a tools & asset management system used for tracking tool history, i.e. maintenance and field use. Our clients are service provider companies of a
niche in O&G exploration. The application is...
Developed on Windows OS for Windows users.
Built using LabVIEW, and requires a run-time engine installed on the client machine.
Powered by Microsoft SQL Database (2005)
Our Primary Needs:
Various users in a client company should be able to use the software and access data simultaneously.
Client companies should be able to access only their own data.
User-size is an upward of 6 per company (and 10 companies in the first year). Most clients are in North America, but a couple are overseas.
We (our company) should be able to update the software and database structure at will.
Development and compilation will done on a local machine.
So will the Virtual Machine suffice, or do we need other service(s) like the SQL Database?
Sorry for the lengthy message, but I hope it helps someone offer a proper option for us. I can't find a Microsoft email anywhere, and I rather type this stuff out.
Thanks.

Hi Immanuel,
Thanks for reaching out.
here is my understanding of your solution and later in the email i have put couple of possibilities to use cloud
Understanding:
At present desktop App (written in dotnet), is available to local user, App connects to some SQL database (app connects to one / more than one db, not local to user), users have some kind of authentication mechanism that authenticates
and authorize them to use only their data from the database (not sure if its one single db with multi-tenancy or separated db for each user).
To be: This is my understanding where you want to be
1. you want app to be deployed in cloud
Question: what is the primary reason of app to be deployed on cloud if this is a windows application, if this is security, then we can explore alternatives to deploy on cloud.
2. You want app to connect to the SQL db deployed on SQL Azure (guessing it would be multi-tenancy), in that case you would need SQL Azure, depending on your db size and scalability
needs on db you can choose from different SQL Azure dbs (at end it comes down to cost)
Options:
1. Not sure if you really need the desktop app on cloud, assuming you have to have it on cloud, you would need at very basic A VM role, where you would deploy and setup the app
as a base VM, that you may replicate for different clients / users of yours. keep in mind that with VM role you are paying for uptime, even if your user is not using your app.
if you choose to use a vm from the azure provided vms then you are covered for licensing, else you would need to figure out licensing cost for OS that you put on the VM, and also
the number of VM will influence the cost of your OS licensing.
2. Alternatively you can also explore a hybrid option where you can keep desktop app on local desktop of users but it connects to the sql azure db (this can further be put in hybrid
mode depending on your data, frequency of update to data etc.. for now it can be a pure sql azure db)
in this case you would not have to maintain much in terms of Cloud service maintenance, all you will have to keep up with is SQL Azure, backups of SQL as you would have been doing
for regular db
3. option 3 is to convert windows app to a web app and then put the entire solution on cloud.. that is kinda larger effort and may not be most appropriate
at this point for you.

I really need help. I try to contact support to no avail. There simply is no option on the site, You are always referred to a further topic which has notihing to do with my problem. I bougnt a full master pack CS6 which I had installed on a mac for one year. Then, I decided to change it to another computer, so I sisintalled it according to instructions. In the meantime I got a free trial of creative cloud on that computer, but I gave up and decided to reinstall my cd-roms. However, everytime I try to use acrobat for instance it says that my trial period ran out! I disinstalled my cloud products, I am using my registered full master series items, they have nothing whatsoever to do with my creative cloud FREE subscription. If I try to cancel my free membership, it is to no avail, there simply is no such possiblity. I want to use the software I paid dearly for, not the cloud items I disinstalled and which do not interest me. How can I contact Adobe to fix it? It was no fault of mine, I did all I was supposed to, disintalling items before installing the right ones, but the system must have some error i am not responsible for.

open an app and click help>activate.
if you try to open an app and see a 'your trial has expired" window, click license this software and enter your serial number.
if you can't do either, run the cleaner and make sure cc is cleaned from your computer, Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

I was syncing everything to itunes and I tried to do my contacts, not knowing quite how. I ended up erasing all of them from my phone without any of them syncing to my computer or itunes. Is there any way I can get them back? I really need them all.

I was syncing everything to itunes and I tried to do my contacts, not knowing quite how. I ended up erasing all of them from my phone without any of them syncing to my computer or itunes. Is there any way I can get them back? I really need them all.

There are lots of ideas floating on the web for this particular issue - all of which I tried. I had the same problem and it turned out to be my USB cable. I thought the cable was fine as it would charge my phone and play but the data transfer pin was bent. I replaced the cable and it fixed the problem. Worth a shot as it is an easy fix!

What is the problem your having downloading the creative cloud desktop application then using it to download and install Photoshop. You can try the direct download if you want to bypass the creative clod desktop application install. Still it mad be installed if you use the direct installer.
