In a week that now seems to have raced by in a blur, the main hall at the Moscone Center was packed to capacity as you would expect when James Gosling is delivering the keynote. The session began with quite a touching tribute to John Gage who has been MC-ing a lot of the general sessions this week, the group of four who invented Java acknowledged Gage as their equivalent of ‘the fifth beatle’ for all of his efforts in promoting and marketing Java and helping it gain traction in the early years.

We all know that Quicksort is one of the fastest algorithms for sorting. It's not often, however, that we get a chance to see exactly how fast Quicksort really is. The following applets chart the progress of several common sorting algorithms while sorting an array of data using in-place algorithms. The result is a very cool visual demo of different sorting algorithm speeds. Source code is included.

When it comes to reading Microsoft Office Word document Java does not have any in build classes to handle this but Apache POI Package developed by Apache Foundation gives you the power of reading Microsoft Word document in Java. More information on the Apache POI package can be found at Apache POI.

Two nights ago I had a conversation with Craig McLanahan, among others, in a slightly dubious sports bar near the JavaOne conference site. When the subject of web frameworks came up, an interesting, and probably obvious, angle emerged.

...the Livescribe Smartpen, which comes with a Java-based development kit. The pen is cool: it's a pen with ink, but it also has a tiny camera in the pen-tip that is watching what you write, 72 times a second. It records all of your writing strokes, and also has a microphone built into it so it can record what you hear, too. It's great for taking notes, in ways that is much easier to understand when you try it yourself. But I'll try to explain just part of it here.

Over the last few months, I’ve been trying to take out time to learn more about Scala – finding documentation and tutorials is hard ( specially if like me, you’ve 15 minutes a day to bite through your lunch when reading ). Wouldn’t a “Thinking in Scala” be nice?

From the category “Bending Java near it’s Breaking Point” or “What a stupid but interesting idea”. I like to explore ideas in Java that are inside the language spec but outside of common usage or style guides. I think Java has a lot more to give than what people did the last ten years. Before dumping Java perhaps we should reconsider some of the “common wisdoms” about how to do things in Java.

Java was the language designed for us to figure out what was going wrong at compile time not run time. We were supposed to be able to not have to worry about the things that tripped us up in the days of C. I'm not opposed to metaprogramming and not having to catch exceptions and not having to write a ton of template code -- but I'm not sure that Java, the language, should change to accommodate all of these ideas. Also, did we learn nothing from the EJB wars about what can be added to a spec and why?

Latest updates on bean binding, SwingWorker integration for long running methods and bean validations. Java SwingBuilder is an attempt to bring dynamic language-type productivity to Java Swing UI development by defining the layout/event wiring/binding in a separate YAML file and leaving the Java class to focus on pure business-side code. Inspired by Groovy SwingBuilder, Ruby on Rails (YAML) and GTK+ libGlade.

While we may have recorded this episode at JavaOne 2008, we spent most of our time talking about more general programming and Java concerns: Scala and functional languages, the freak-out (or lack thereof?) around multi-core programming, breaking around the safe sandbox of the VM to take advantage of operating system features and other technologies, and other topics, like who came up with those epigraphs in the Java Language Specification.
