Don't give up just because there are other options out there.
Adobe is only giving up the free tool for education purposes, or unemployed developer. You didn't say if you were one of those.
I believe over time there will be plenty of room for alternate IDE approaches that support the Flex Framework; and in fact there are quite a few options already out there.

A new, free, open source as3 development tool

Hi All,
I have been a Java developer for years and came to know ActionScript this year. Can't afford the flex builder, and since I am familiar with eclipse, I can not get used to the free FlashDevelop. So I build a new eclipse plugin to work with ActionScript 3, it takes use of the Adobe Flex SDK 3, has the basic functionalities to do edit, compile, and debug. Code assistant is provided, but not well done yet. If you are interested in this tool, please check it out at http://as3ide.sourceforge.net
No doubt this tool is bugy now, but I don't have enough time to work on it, and even more, I don't know if such a tool is useful to others. So I publish it here today, if I could get some possitive responses from others, I may put some more time working on it.
Hope you will like it and welcome feedbacks or comments.

Free/open source plotting software

The objective:
Data processing, mostly one X and one Y axis, recorded from sensors.
Formatting, to change how the chart looks, e.g. fonts of the axis label, weight and dashed lines of the plot, addition of lines or arrows.
What's been found:
Gnumeric and google spreadsheet.
There is a wonder what the Free/open source software users among the research people are using. I ran into LaTeX and thinks it's a good software. Anything like this would be nice.
Thanks.

Fine. I found QtiPlot working really well on Linux systems with ease of availability free of charge. No flame setting (as I think Mac OS and linux are both Unix-like), but it's a bit hard to compile on Mac OS X.

Open source tool for oracle to mysql migration

Hi,
Is there any open source tools available for the database migration from Oracle to MySQL.
Please advice.

Hi,
This forum is for migrating to Oracle from non-Oracle databases. It would be better if you tried an Internet search or the MySQL forum -
http://forums.mysql.com/
for information about moving from Oracle to MySQL.

Will JSE integrate more 3rd-party open source tools in the future?

Will JSE integrate more 3rd-party open source tools in the future?

Looks like this issue is the same as the one tracked in:
http://swforum.sun.com/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=57046
Also, the thread http://swforum.sun.com/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=55897 discusses the topic "SJS8EA: how to add netbeans4.1 update center" ; users can add nb41 update center to jse and download and install the modules from netbeans update center. Users can also obtain the nbms directly from netbeans.org and other third party vendors and apply them to jse using "manually downloaded modules" option in autoupdate client. Of course, users should ensure that the downloaded modules are compatible with the version of nb a given jse version is based on.

I haven't tried ICEFaces or JBoss seam or Apache MyFaces, so I can't really compare them.
ICEFaces appears to be a nice framework/tool from looking at their site, even though it's open source I think one has to pay for support, you might want to take that into consideration while making your decision.
Apache MyFaces, is fully community driven - so you get free support from the community.
I don't know about JBoss seam.

Is SAP Netweaver environment compatible with CruiseControl open source tool

Hi All,
Can you please let me know if
Is SAP Netweaver environment compatible with CruiseControl open source tool?
If yes, steps to integrate the same.

Ken,
Few suggestions from my side.
>>who supports the code? It's free, so there is >>no 'technical support hotline' to call. For every >>package that we install, we therefore increase our >>workload.
This varies from package to package. If you see Hibernate which is a OR mapping library, you get support for it which is run by a altogether different company but you might not get the support for your other library codes. so..varies with what you are trying to use.
>>testing strategy - how many hoops do we make the code >>go through before we can be assured that >>it's 'production' ready?
This will also depend on the free source stuff you are trying to use. Say in case of Struts or log4j like packages, you wont find any flaws as the industry is heavily relying on these today. but a new library and yes, you need fair amount of testing for that.
>>what is the SAP stance on incorporating open source >>code into the J2EE engine? Does this in any way affect >>supportability?
SAP would be the best option to enquire with :).
>>rapid change - Open source code can change quite >>rapidly, so how do you handle this?
Not necessary you have to upgrade.If a current version suffices your business requirement then stick with it.
Even if you change to a latest version,you might need to tweak with your java versions (say upgrade java also) but the existing functionality in previous versions will continue to work fine though..
Hope this helps..

Free open-source WIG (Wireless Internet Gateway)

Hello guys
I'm ttrying to develop a system that anables communication between the cell phone and the web server via sms (sms platform). Don't you guys know of any free open-source WIG gateway that is readily available for downloads?
Also, is there anyone here who has developed this type of system? how did you do it? any advices or suggestion.?
thank you to tou all of you in advance.

I am not an expert, however, I have noticed very similar issues with the 2Wire equipment. I visit a local coffee shop daily and was perplexed why my MacBook Pro was successfully connected with a strong signal but would have a self-addressed IP address for up to 10-min. Other times, the whole network would go down when a new computer would connect, usually mine.
After reviewing the topic, once again, I am coming to the belief that it is just the 2Wire Gateway that is at the center of these issues. My suggestion is to get a separate modem and wireless router. I am also with AT&T at my home and I use their Motorola SpeedStream modem and a Netgear Router. I cant say that I never have issues, however, at most, I get some easy to resolve problem come up once a month or so.
Best of luck to you...

Free / open source Closed Captioning software?

I'd like to add closed captions to a feature film I produced. I understand the difference between closed captioning (which is embedded in the video and decoded by the TV) and DVD subtitles, and I would like to add real closed captioning.
Is there any free / open source Mac-compatible closed captioning software I can use to add captions to my feature film and create a .cc file for importing into DVD Studio Pro?
I'm more than comfortable with steep learning curves and X11 interfaces. If I have to use a text editor and timecodes, that's fine too. I just need that .cc file to add true closed captioning to my video, and I don't have the dough for commercial CC software.
Thanks!

my company does offer closed captioning as a service, Kelly is correct when he says the software is very expensive. as far as creating a .scc file with a text editor, i don't believe it is possible but i may be wrong. when opening a .scc or .cc file in a text editor, it does look like a bunch of "gobbledygook". but the .cap file that is used to create the .scc or .cc file looks a bit more manageable and could possibly be created without captioning software, again i may be wrong and have never attempted to do it. but say you could do it, you could save a bunch of money by creating the .cap file and giving it to someone who has the software to convert it to .scc or .cc. if that seems overwhelming and want to job it out, you could save some money by transcribing the video yourself which is a significant part of the cost when outsourcing. here is a sample of what a .cap file looks like:

Why do three new tabs open every time I press the "home" icon?

Three new tabs open every time I press the home icon. I and two others have looked through all my settings and have contacted Mozilla (no response) and can't figure out why this is happening? Anyone have a clue how to stop this incredibly annoying problem from continuing?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Upon install of Windows 7

See [[How to set the home page]]: Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

Is mysql a free open source database or do you need a license for it in prd

is mysql a free open source database or do you need a license for it in production.

Hi,
It should be free under GPL (General Public license).Usually it will comes with your operating system distribution (eg:RHEL)
If you download it from Oracle site, it should have the commercial license tied to it, and you need to pay for that if it is in use for production.

Need open source tool

i want to add a private key into a certificate file
what open source tool i can use ?

you are right but i did the other way around.
I have a keystore.
I extracted certificate and the private key out of that keystore (by keytool and a custom java program)
Now, i would like to share this certificate and private key to a client (for the time being its the browser) so that the browser and the server are mutually authenticated in 2 way SSL.
so, if i can make a certificate + private key file ...then i could use Browser's Import tab and will pick up the file and then i'll call a secured Web Service from the browser.

The FREE & OPEN SOURCE Mac OS...

UNIX is unanimously recognized as the best operating system. Today, all UNIX are free and open source, with the exception of Mac OS... Sun Microsystems is the latest must to have produced free and open source OS, what allows thousands of developers to analyze every line of code and to correct the faults. We obtain in this way an almost "perfect" OS... This method of development proved its superiority with Linux. The Linux kernel contains 5 times fewer errors than all other UNIX... The open source of Mac OS as well as the free distribution would give an ENORMOUS ADVANTAGE onto all others UNIX... Mac OS is compatible with of numerous commercial softs, what is not still the case for Solaris, BSD, Linux, etc... Every administrator as well as the end users will install Mac OS on their computer to take advantage of the UNIX power, and the software compatibility... We obtain the PERFECT platform...! I think that Mac OS can become the BEST OS in the world, so only Apple not keep in the confidentiality their baby... Do not forget that you are the LAST ones not to have opened TOTALLY your OS...!
Other OS

> UNIX is unanimously recognized as the best operating system
Widely, but not unanimously.
As for the rest of your argument...
Mac OS X is built on top of Darwin. Darwin is Apple's UNIX bed and that is already open source. You can download and build your own Darwin environment as you like:
http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/
Apple also open source many of the elements of Mac OS X - theunderlying technologies such as Bonjour, Open Directory and more:
http://developer.apple.com/opensource/index.html
What they don't open source is the UI layer - Aqua and its associated parts, but that's a whole different issue, and maybe the reason to own a Mac. If you could download Mac OS X (including the UI) and build your own copy on your commodity hardware then you could say goodbye to Apple's hardware business. People are prepared to pay extra for Apple's superior industrial design, but there are limits.
It's arguable that Apple's hardware is an intrinsic part of the Mac experience. If you take that away then what incentive is there to use a Mac?

Open Source tool(Jar) for multiple file/folder upload

Hi experts,
I would be obliged if anyone could kindly let me know some open source file/folder upload tools which can be used free of cost and source files of which could be edited and used for customization.

Please help with useful links to resources and valuable advices.
Any help in this regard is well appreciated.
Warm Regards,

When I click on Pages I get an old document and the spinning wheel, I can't create a new doc, open another doc, or edit the one that does open, what do I do now?

I go to the Pages application and click on it, and instead of getting the normal Pages menu I get an old Pages document and the spinning wheel. I can't open the menu bar, can't create a new document, can't open another document, can't access the menu. All that happens is the spinning wheel, it's been thirty minutes now and it's still spinning

Menu > Apple > Force Quit… > Pages
Try opening Pages with the shift key held down.
To escape what is happening in Pages if you can't get at the menu, click on your Desktop then come at the Apple menu by sliding around from top right.
