There are many map components in the world out there—and I have documented how to integrate several of them in an Oracle JET application, e.g., 3DCityDB, Mapbox, Leaflet, and LuciadRIA, as well as Oracle JET's ojThematicMap component.  However, Oracle has its own map component, as described in detail below, which includes the Oracle Maps Javascript library: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/mapviewer/overview/index.html Oracle Fusion Middleware MapViewer is a...

In part 1, yesterday, we deployed a Node.js application, with static resources architected on Orace JET, to the Application Container Cloud Service (ACCS). However, ACCS is also applicable to Java SE applications. There are several use cases for running Java SE applications on ACCS: http://docs.oracle.com/cloud/latest/apaas_gs/apaas_tutorials_create_sample_java_se_applications.htm I followed this...

Let's take the starting point from yesterday and use the absolute bare minimum of Oracle JET's "Common Model" functional pattern. To understand the idea behind the Oracle JET Common Model, think of it is an implementation of Martin Fowler's "Active Record" pattern, while its syntax is that of Backbone.Model and Backbone.Collection in Backbone.js. For background reading on the Oracle JET Common Model, see the Oracle JET Cookbook section on Common Model and the Using the Oracle...

I did an overview this evening of Oracle JET, at Oracle partner Transfer Solutions in Leerdam, the Netherlands. Staff from Transfer Solutions attended, as well as developers and consultants from several other organizations.  I did several demos, all using NetBeans IDE 8.1, while showing off all the cool NetBeans features for Require, Knockout, and JET, as well as the NetBeans Connector plugin for Chrome. My approach, I've done this kind of overview a few times now, is to...

Gail and Paul Anderson (interviewed a few days ago here) passed on the happy news to me today. The eBook of JavaFX Rich Client Programming on the NetBeans Platform is available now. The physical tree based book (i.e., in addition to the eBook, there will be a treeBook!) will be available from the end of the month, when it will be released during JavaOne 2014. If you'll be at JavaOne 2014, please come to the book signing at the JavaOne bookstore, Tuesday, September 30, 15:30...

Once upon a time I started creating an application framework (named 'mfx', for 'modular JavaFX') with JavaFX on the NetBeans Platform. Today I updated it to NetBeans Platform 8 and JDK 8, which means I removed the wrapped jfxrt JAR, since that's now on the classpath of JRE 8. Added a few small other features and here's a small starter app created on mfx, showing a JavaFX menubar and toolbar populated from the 'menu' and 'toolbars' folders in the NetBeans System FileSystem, as...

Thanks to a great new article by Rob Terpilowski, and other work and research he describes in that article, it's now trivial to introduce a map component to a NetBeans Platform application. Making use of the GMapsFX library, as described in Rob's article, which provides a JavaFX API for Google Maps, you can very quickly knock this application together. Click to enlarge the image. Here's all the code (from Rob's article): @TopComponent.Description( preferredID =...

In this very short screencast (a mere 44 seconds), you see one of my personal holy grails has come along quite far. It shows an initial implementation of integration between the JavaFX HTMLEditor component and the NetBeans IDE HTML Source Editor. Two way editing, synchronized between the two views (visual and source) is successfully demonstrated. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLkuQFUaI9A However, rather than rewriting the entire source file when a change is made in...

Here's my first attempt at integrating the visual JavaFX HTMLEditor on top of HTML files on the NetBeans Platform, e.g., NetBeans IDE. All the code and note that the two sides aren't synchronized (yet): import java.io.IOException;import java.util.logging.Level;import java.util.logging.Logger;import javafx.application.Platform;import javafx.embed.swing.JFXPanel;import javafx.scene.Scene;import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane;import javafx.scene.web.HTMLEditor;import...
