I am playing with the JDK Javascript API (JSR 223) and I wanted to check out the replacement of variables in a String. Then I suddenly got this error:
javax.script.ScriptException: sun.org.mozilla.javascript.internal.EvaluatorException: missing ; before statement (<Unknown source>#1) in <Unknown source> at line number 1
After some reseach I found out, that my variables did contain invalid characters in my case the variable contained a -.
So the Regular Expression for valid Javascript variable names is:
[a-zA-Z_$][0-9a-zA-Z_$]*
It is also possible to use any unicode characters for variables, but of course this is not recommended.

Today I had a hard time implementing time-consuming processes with AJAX status updates. I stripped down everything to a minimal working example. The technologies used in this example are
- Seam 2.2.2
- Richfaces 3.3
- Quartz 1.6
So here is what I wanted to achieve: The user of my application should click a button and in the background, a long running process should do some database stuff. Since this could take a while, I wanted to show some progress to the user. I did not want a progress bar, but I wanted to display some text to the user, depending on what the long-running tasks current status was.
I stripped it all down to an minimal example, which starts a long running process (huge for loop which generates random UUIDs) when a button is clicked and displays the current UUID to the user. With this basic example I hope you can get the ideas behind the a4j:poll component and how to do asynchronous long-running tasks with Seam. I must admit, that I was heavily(!) inspired by Andrey Chorniys blog post Show dynamic progress of time-consuming process in Seam/RichFaces where I shamelessly stole code and adapted it to my needs.
Here are the neccessary steps to get started

Today I struggled with getting my TestNG Integration Tests working in my Seam 2 project. It’s not a very smart idea to use the production/development database for database tests and here’s why:
1. It is damn slow
2. We want to separate “real”/fake data from unit test data.
3. Under normal circumstances we want a clean database or a database with predefined data (see )
4. We want the unit tests to run everywhere. It should not matter if we have a Windows machine, a Linux Buildserver or a MacOSX. It should just work. Oh and I forgot. We even want it to work without Internet Connection.
5. …
So I decided to use HSQLDB for my Unit tests.
The first barrier was getting TestNG working. Mehr…

I am using Netbeans for a few weeks now and I have to admit, that I really enjoy this IDE. But my happiness with the IDE is not what I want to blog about today 
Programmers are (or should be) lazy. We do not want to write the same code again and again. Fortunately every sophisticated IDE has some kind of Code Template mechanism, so does Netbeans. Here are some of my created Templates which I think other people could find it as useful as I do:

JBoss Seam bietet eine wirklich tolle Unterstützung für das Versenden von E-Mails an. Falls jemand nicht weiß wie das funktioniert, hier ist die Referenz dazu.

We had a Problem with JBoss Seam 2.2.1.CR1 Logger. We were not able to log with parameters. (This is a known bug: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBSEAM-4606 )
I was looking for a tutorial which covers upgrading Seam, but I did not find any. So this is my solution how to upgrade from Seam 2.2.1.CR1 to Seam 2.2.1.CR2:
It is kind of a trivial job, because in normal case you just have to replace libraries. Here is a step to step tutorial:

Wir hatten das Problem, dass in der Version 2.2.1.CR1 von JBoss Seam das Logging mit Parametern defekt war (siehe Seam Bugtracker: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBSEAM-4606 )
Deshalb hatte ich nach einem Howto gesucht um Seam upzugraden, leider habe ich nichts dazu gefunden. Deshalb hier meine Lösung:
JBoss changed its Repository URL, so our Nexus Repository Manager was not able to download the newest Hibernate Version (3.5.1-Final). Although the old JBoss Repository is readable and searchable we had problems downloading the .jar files. We changed the URL to the new JBoss Repository URL and everything worked fine again.
This is the new URL:
https://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/groups/public

If you want to set the @author tag via Code Templates, you probably want to configure the name behind the tag. By default Eclipse takes your account name of your OS. If you want to set another name, you have to edit the eclipse.ini and add the following line:
-Duser.name=Name
Now your name will appear behind the tag.

If you install the m2eclipse Plugin for the Maven Integration in Eclipse, this Error could possibly be shown in the Eclipse console:
Eclipse is running in a JRE, but a JDK is required
Some Maven plugins may not work when importing projects or updating source folders.
If you have this issue, you should edit your eclipse.ini and add the following lines (on a Windows System) :
-vm
C:\path\to\JDK\bin\javaw.exe
Now your Eclipse should use the JDK to run with and the m2eclipse plugin should be happy.
