Java and Flex Builder 3


Flex Builder 3 is distributed as an Eclipse plugin and as a standalone IDE. The standalone version does not support Java development out of the box. These couple of blogs helped me to add Java to the standalone version.

How to debug SOAP on Mac with tcpdump

I’ve been using several tools to debug SOAP on Mac and Windows. I would like to share my experience in using some of the tools and show some examples. So far I found four major categories of tools that are useful in debugging SOAP: Interface listeners such as tcpdump and others Proxy tools such as TCPMonitor Servlet filters Application server logging. For example, Weblogic has a special logging option that dumps SOAP requests and responses to the sever log. All of these tools have their own advantages and disadvantages. In this article, I will describe the first type - an interface listener tool called tcpdump. I am planning to describe other three categories in the future posts. The tcpdump is a tool that sniffs IP traffic and dumps it to a file or a standard output stream. It was originally developed by Van Jacobson, Craig Leres and Steven McCanne from the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, University of California, Berkeley, CA. It is open source. The tcpdump documentation...

MySQL macport install on Mac OS X Tiger

I have installed mysql5 macport on the MacBookPro laptop running OS X Tiger 10.4. There are a few steps that needs to be done once the port is installed. These steps are not documented (see Ticket #12694 on macports.org). So, after reading a few blogs and analyzing mysql startup error messages, I figured out what needs to be done in order to get it running. That info might be useful to others, so I’ve decided to publish the solution here. First of all, we need to create the initial database database $ sudo /opt/local/lib/mysql5/bin/mysql_install_db --user=mysql Here is the output of the command: $ sudo ./mysql_install_db --user=mysql Installing MySQL system tables... 071118 0:06:29 [Warning] Setting lower_case_table_names=2 because file system for /opt/local/var/db/mysql5/ is case insensitive OK Filling help tables... 071118 0:06:29 [Warning] Setting lower_case_table_names=2 because file system for /opt/local/var/db/mysql5/ is case insensitive OK To start mysqld at boot time you hav...

Deploying BlazeDS to Weblogic 10.0

The BlazeDS is a free and open source J2EE application that provides data services to Adobe Flex and AIR applications. I’ve deployed it to Weblogic 10.0 server. I thought somebody else would be interested to do the same. Here is how. In case you need to install Weblogic 10.0, the developers copy is available for free at http://commerce.bea.com/products/weblogicplatform/weblogic_prod_fam.jsp . I have it installed on my Windows XP at D:\bea10 folder. I have created a new domain for my BlazeDS applications. It is easy to do, see http://edocs.bea.com/common/docs100/confgwiz/index.html for details. In my case, the domain name is blazeds and it is located in D:\bea10\user_projects\domains\blazeds folder on my computer. The domain name and the folders names can be difference, I just mentioned them so it is easier to follow the examples.. Once the Weblogic server is installed and a domain is ready, the BlazeDS applications can be deployed. A copy of BlazeDS is available...
