Java™ Coding Guidelines: 75 Recommendations for Reliable and Secure Programs

If you read  the book (and prepared TODO list) which is in the following link: http://threadsandlocks.blogspot.com/2011/09/cert-oracle-secure-coding-standard-for.html,
you should read this new one.

General Purpose is same, More/Very Secure coding in Java.
CERT Oracle Secure Coding Standard for Java is like a Captain's Logbook.
"Java™ Coding Guidelines: 75 Recommendations for Reliable and Secure Programs" is the second for this category.

It contains very detailed examples about "Secure coding in Java".
75 different and necessary recommendations're detailed with their reasons.

This recommendations are grouped into 5 categories.
1.Security
2.Defensive Programming
3.Program Understandability
4.Reliability
5.Programmer Misconception

References in this book  are very helpfull and every reference like a wind moves you to the new resources for reading/searching them :).

Oracle SOA Suite 11g Handbook By: Lucas Jellema

If you were /are interested in  Oracle BPEL, this book tells you news about Soa Suite 11g.

If you are 10g developer:

      :) Exception Handling is very cute.
      :) XSLT not same. Sometimes You need change your .xsl file content.
      :) Application Server is different than the older one(10g).

Little little comes to the middle :)

Really Good Job :) !

[Book] The Elements of Java™ Style

This book'd been written in 2001.

Some important principles of Java for the Java Application Developers are still same  and items for usage list are, of course,  valid for the given samples in this book.

I see many new beginners on the net and the forums that i followed.

For the accustoming to the java programming language syntax, this book is very very good guide.
I believe in that your code should be understandable for every code reviewer.
Ok, source code is very good documentation but code comments and variable names are important as much as the code bugs and  source code style shows the respect of your program that you write. This my personal opinion :-).

May be this book needs for update to the including new Java features. Maybe it exists.

Weblogic war files and libraries

If your web application requires some 3rd party libraries for the platform Weblogic, there are common used 2 different ways for running your application with including this archive files.

First one is adding this libraries to the classpath of Weblogic Server.

Second one is making definition in the weblogic.xml file of your project.
For instance:

  <container-descriptor>
    <prefer-web-inf-classes>true</prefer-web-inf-classes>
  </container-descriptor>

And for more information:

http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24329_01/web.1211/e21049/weblogic_xml.htm


If you've to use  3rd party jars with different versions, i think second way is better.

Insipiration :)

FindDeadLocks Api

I want to use any API or plugin :-) that runs application and finds the code lines/threads
which could have any block waiting for each other’s locks without monitoring in the run-time of the app.


If i couldn't find such any tool like that i mentioned above, i start to write it, really, hopefully :).

Suspend Membership and it brings :)

When you become a member any web site for specific time period, you take advantage of membership facilities until  the time of membership is over.

As Human Being, we cannot be stable and we cannot control everything in our life. Sometimes you have a new nephew and your family need your help. May be you go to holiday or abroad because of the any reason. And you couldn't make use of  your membership facilities for a while.

I want to suspend my accounts and extent the membership time for this reasons on those days.
But i did not see  such an option on the any web site.

I was at DevFest 2013 Istanbul, yesterday. There were many interesting presentations
such as MongoDB, Neo4J, Android Game Development ,  so many.

Google Glass reminded me this article.

New applications and enhancements for Google Glass will be one of the topics of the next following years.

[Book] Java Quick Syntax Reference

Beginning to  learn a new programming language and getting accustomed to the language basics take time.

More practice could be good method but if you have less time to do; reading this book could be nice start-up.

For the fundamental java instructors, this book can be helpful to show language basics for syntax explanation if the presentation document is not ready:-).

My keywords:         Java EE7, Java SE8, Java Security Architecture and Garbage Collection.
My new interests:     Raspberry PI, Kids4Java

New Time lib seems to be best ever.

My favorite tutorial was: Java Security Architecture by David Svoboda.
Good Sessions: ugf10520,con5767,con2417

In the many web sites, many speakers published own slayts.

I collected some of them for you:

Sweet Java8 is commmiiiinnnggg

Good things come to those who wait :)

One of the keynote topics @JavaOne2013 was Java8 and it brings. it will come with easiest ways to the programmers.

After Java 8 it seems to be easiest Date usage will be with java developers.
After using Java8, would you please tell me how many lines will be deleted from all of the source codes in the projects (all around the world).

When i saw the removeAll advantages,  i found myself thinking this calculation unconsciously :):

Anyway, it comes to its goodparts of Java8, the following slides and the links inside may be helpfull.

Update:
When  you give Java 8 seminar/training etc, I don't advise you using "Age" topic in your samples:)

NetBeans for java beans :)

As a java developer kawa, notepad :) , IntelliJ, jdeveloper and eclipse tools that i used.

It comes to learn Netbeans IDE.

You must know this:

        As i heard;
                     James Gosling: "NetBeans is the new powerpoint"

        As i watched;

                    Good Java application samples  developed and shown by using Netbeans IDE

I thought that Netbeans calls me :-). Being learned Primefaces played an extra role :).

As I hope so the following weeks you are going to see my netbeans experience in this blog.

I  downloaded and started to read tutorials about development in the Netbeans' web site.
I started from this page: https://netbeans.org/kb/docs/java/gui-functionality.html


firstly I want to comment for the one of tutorials and this message took my interest and i really really like it :).

As a summary for this night,
Code and Development samples in the Netbeans are very simple explanation and helpful.

If you download "debugging-sample" sample project, you can understand how the human-programming interaction is improved to the better than before when you see the method of "setLookAndFeel" :). I found very exciting. Maybe some Java/Swing developers familiar with this. Please ignore my re-discoveries.
http://www.amazon.com/Java-Look-Design-Guidelines-Edition/dp/0201725886



i found a more detail for this.
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/swing/UIManager.html

From the Netbeans how the topic flowed to the this class, i really didnt recognize:) sorry

Java Compilation Suprises for newbies

Learn how to smart java compiler, make duplicate code lines in your code and after compilation, when you decompile of your compiled source code (.class file) you must see the how optimization is maden :)



Speacially Try-Catch Blocks for that, I prefer!

Java, Unknown Threads are perfect strangers, arent they?

Perfect memory usage is necessary for any application.

After write your application it comes to the performance monitoring.

The following comments for heap monitoring.

-verbosegc -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:+PrintGCDetails -Xloggc:filename.ext

when you run your application you get the log file filename.ext.

GcViewer is the best for displaying log file.


Then enjoy!
