Bits and pieces

Hacking the project development !! I have been thinking lately, I personally do lot of projects outside my job, some ones are merely CRUD application over the web and some are novel applications. Philosophy :) The best way to do a job is not to repeat the same things again. I like products and I like components which we can re-use which can save hours setting up and starting things. Some of the best "on-the-fly" tools like 'Spring-ROO ' miss the personalization of things we want on the web development projects.

So there should be a silver bullet customized to our needs where it can just create all the layers of the web project. After working around for more than several years in lots of personalized projects, I would hate myself to copy a piece of code from other project and pu...

System.gc() may or may not run finalize() of for the orphans (object that holds no reference) but Runtime.runFinalizersonExit(true) and System.runFinalizersonExit(true) will surely make the objects ready for the garbage collected. Java supports only pa...
