The draw back is that it is dedicated to Oracle. Hopefully one can extrapolate it for other databases.

State of JAXB

More documents like this are at:  CS-xml

19-Mar-04

There is little doubt that objects provide distinct advantages when working in Java compared to SAX, DOM, or raw XML. But in Java the problem or facility is that there are so many alternatives available for binding Java and XML. In .Net this choice is made for you by Microsoft in terms of a tool called XSD.exe. Of the solutions available in Java, Jaxb seem to have finally turned the corner and is now part of the web services developer pack.

This article examines the current state of jaxb based on literature available on the internet. This article will examine the following to answer the question of "what is the state of Jaxb and will I choose it for my development effort?".


Jaxb Packaging
Jaxb features
Good things about JAXB
Known issues with JAXB as I see
What are others saying about JAXB
Bottomline
Samplecode: A taste of jaxb
	Generate java classes from XSDs
	XML to Java
	Java to XML

Being from sun I am hoping to derive the following

. What do they say about the overall architecture?
. Where is it heading?

Table of contents

What's JAXB? 
An Example: Accessing an XML Document 
  Bind the Schema 
  Unmarshal the Document 
Another Example: Building an XML Document 
  Bind the Schema 
  Create the Content Tree 
  Marshal the Content Tree 
A Final Example: Updating an XML Document 
Binding Can Be Customized 
Distinct Advantages

This is fundamentally a prayer to perhaps the most beloved deity of the Hindu pantheon. This is virtually untranslatable. Because each word has a thousand connotations to the listner.

The lines are meaningful in most of the Indian languages as the lines are in Sanskrit.

The rendering of these lines by Lata Mangeshkar in "Satyam Sivam Sundaram" is magical. Although this film by Raj Kappor, one of the doyens of Indian Film, is a fine one, It is worth watching it just for this one rapturous moment.

Narayan is a year and 3 months. He is walking around quite good now. His favorite hobbies include toppling oversized things among other destructive things. This past sunday like many husbands of the modern times, otherwise quite respected, I was washing dishes while watching Narayan. He is at his game destroying things in the living room. Kavitha, my 5 year old, is kind of keeping an eye on him as I couldn't spot him exactly what he was upto from where I was washing the dishes. Kavitha got hold of a puppet doll. It wasn't long before she tied knots around it. Now she is all concentration trying to unknot the doll. I hear the frustrating sounds of a 1year 3 months old. More than usual the presense of Kavitha around a 1 year 3 month old can cause this. So I yelled "Kavitha what is the problem?" as I lift my head from the sink. I can see this time though that she couldn't be the reason as I see her in the middle of the room focussing on the puppet. As I was conjecturing this I hear the answer floating by. Katiha didn't even turn her head. She simply stated using a pronoun: "He is trying to lift the sofa" and continue to unravel the puppet.

There are a bunch of people that still use Netscape 4.7

I was surprised recently to learn that a local private school still uses Netscape 4.7 on their macs. Unmoved by the onslaught of overwhelming ie stats there are still quite a few 4.7 installations out there.

The implication might be that table based styling might be better if the other reasons doesn't rule it out.

Differences in specifying color in ie and mozilla

More documents like this are at:  CSS

In ie background-color:"blue" is OK. But in mozilla you have to say it without the quotes around the color: background-color:blue. I am not sure why I have used the quotes to begin with. But now I know not to use the quotes.

I was also pleasantly surprised to see this site which is originally styled in ie stood up quite well in mozilla 6 except for the color discrepancy. Nevertheless there seem to be some diffrences in divs and empty spaces. I will post these findings as I uncover them.

Sauteed mushrooms

More documents like this are at:  Recipes

It is odd what a 1 year old likes. As of now the hands down favorite food of my 1 year old son is "Sauteed Mushrooms" that my wife cooks. He seem to chomp down an infinite supply of these. He seem to be OK since he has been doing this for a couple of weeks now. The baby food that I buy from a near publix, I must have thrown out more in the garbage than he ate.

Click on the above link to see the recipe.

However you slice it life in these times is a rush. Along with it goes the stress. This quotient is at its peak around 8AM in our house as I start gathering my work bag and Kavitha's school bag on our way to the 100,000 mile Camry in the driveway while trying to wave the customary bye to her Mom and Narayan who happens to eye us everyday as to where on earth we disappear into.

I check my seat belts and back up while Kavitha settles in with her school bag while ferociously thinking how to annoy her Dad. This annonyance may vary from playing a game to pretending to be a creature with matching vocal chords. On this rainy, wintry day she must have decided to take it easy on me and announced that she would like to play the "My letter is letter.." game. The drive usually takes about 10 minutes covering the 2 mile distance as we pass the traffic lights and an ever present ominous looking Jacksonville Police Officer that directs the traffic into the school from the main road.

The game goes like this. I will start by choosing a letter. Let me say the letter is "t". So I will have to promptly announce to the other player as "My letter is letter T", followed by a clue. As I pass through the tall growth on the side of the road I prepare my clue: "It is tall and green". Kavitha would normally guess this with an answer of "tree". Today she chose to play first and chose "T". Subsequently she declares the clue:

It lives in nature
It is the home of the squirrels

In my mind I start reflecting "My tree is tall and green" while her tree is a thing of life and a part of Nature. So I take in stride the humble, and she moves on to her second letter which she chooses to be "R". And her clue arrives with the same precission:

Soon I will be 7
And I will be taking care of it

With consternation and gloom I pull into the parking lot of the school thinking of ruses to avoid getting a "Rabbit" for her 7th birthday. It used to be her 6th birthday. But recently she weighed the predicament of taking care of a Rabit and decided that the Rabit will be more manageable when she is 7. I am still hoping it will be 8 next year.

I dropped her off with her basket of Valentine gifts to her teacher and co-students and headed back to work. A friend of mine comments in this wake:

"She has more personality in her pinky than most people have in all their bodies."

Swing Sightings Volume 20

Following is a quote from the above url

"One of the most exciting kinds of e-mail that the Swing/JFC team receive is a product announcement for a new JavaTM application that features a Swing GUI. A close runner-up is the URL for a new game or a compelling never-before-seen applet.

Over the years we've collected many links to this information. In fact, if you walked down the hallways here you would see the walls plastered with hundreds of screenshots from applications developed outside of Sun. Therefore, we have decided to launch a Swing Connection feature to share this bounty. Don't expect a comprehensive survey; these are applications that we bumped into or that found us."
