How To Build A Limber Jack Doll

JDK5, Ubuntu and Summer Time

To begin with I'm just when switching to Linux, specifically Kubuntu.

first encountered a serious problem which relates to the time zone observed by Jave. Configuration:

1) JRE6 installed "the package" (using aptitude) to use it to run Javowe tools, applets in the browser, etc.
2) JDK5 downloaded from the Sun and unzipped. It is used for development purposes. Here JAVA_HOME points.

The problem is that the Java JDK did not include DST offset (in the installed "the package" Java is OK). After several hours of hair from the head stutter found this bug notification . The title refers to what the truth of JDK6, but as it turns out also fits version 5 I made a slight change from what I described, namely:
 
sudo cp / etc / localtime / etc / localtime.bak
sudo ln-s-f / usr / share / zoneinfo / Europe / Warsaw / etc / localtime and
the problem. Weird ...

PS IM
What do you recommend? The best would be something that can handle both mail and Jabber.

Dowland Free Mount Blade Demo

Testowalny

We cucumber season, so only a brief post about what is extremely important, even on vacation. Misko great article titled Hevery Writing Testable Code. Article refers to the mini-books PDF format containing practical examples of how an existing bad code led to some reasonable and testable form. The authors use Guice framework , but conceptually the proposed solutions are universal.
also plan to look at the project Testability Explorer , co-authored by Misko, and that allows you to analyzing the code in terms of testability (static analysis bytecodu of what the fast I read.) For now, I downloaded the source, and I saw with my own eyes that the possibilities offered by Guice are really very interesting.

Have fun!
