Cool stuff to look at while we wait for dba_recyclebin to purge.

Sun has made available a developer edition of Solaris-10 that is available for free. This bundle includes many of the applications, tools and servers that have long been available with Linux, but built for Solaris. The summary says that it provides all the features of Solaris-10, some enhancements not yet in Solaris-10 and a complete development environment. It is available for download or on dvd for 32/64 bit x86 and SPARC systems. I know I’ll be giving it a spin.

Netbeans 6.0 is Final

No comments

Netbeans 6.0 is final and if you are a developer – you’d best go get it and check it out. But maybe you are not convinced. Maybe you ask, “What is in this for me, other than a free tool?” Well lets look at a quick list of what technologies are supported by this release of netbeans. Ajax , C/C++ , Databases , Desktop , Editor , GUI Builder , Java EE , Java ME , Java SE , Javascript , Mobile , Profiler , Refactor , REST , Rich Client Platform , Ruby , SOA , SOAP , UML , Web , WSDL , XML.

This is an immensely useful, open, free, multiplatform tool. It is the kind of thing that really gets me excited. (And no – I don’t have the day off – just waiting for some processes to complete and ran into a few interesting things I just had to point out here at me blog.)
