As you all (should) know, begin this month, there was the event of the year for Java developers, Devoxx. This year they changed their name from JavaPolis to Devoxx to strengthen the voice for Java developers. But I don’t think that the name changed any of its popularity. Instead, they had more attendees compared to last year.
As a rookie, I had the privilege to go to Devoxx and explore the Java world, looking at the new and shiny technologies that will conquer the world! The first university day, I was very interested in the web development sessions I had the chance to attend sessions about JPA and Flex. Each session lasted for 3 hours (although some people didn’t wait that long :) ). The day ended with a very interested JSF on Rails session, presented by Lucas Jellema.
On the second university day, I had the chance to look at Seam in action. The author of the book (with the same title), Dan Allen, presented in a very detailed way the possibilities of Seam. Sometimes he went too far in details that some of my fellow attendees began to dream of Seam (with their eyes closed). After an energetic lunch, I went to the Filthy Rich Clients session by Romain Guy and Chet Haase.
It was a very interesting session given in a very entertaining way. Both speakers really knew how to catch the audience’s attention. They explained us how we can improve the look and feel of our applications so that both user and developer can really enjoy themselves when using/building an application.
After the performance of a beatboxer that surely woke us up, the third and most astonishing day began! First, Stephan Janssen (the man behind Devoxx), gave us a brief summary of the previous days and passed the microphone to the Java FX team. This team presented a state of the art new technology and showed it to the crowd in an amazing demo! They made a video puzzle where the player had to put the pieces back in the right order, with the video still playing! Magnificent!
As the people of this beautiful presentation of JavaFx ended,the people of IBM were the next ones in line to tell us more about these strange portals at every entry. It was an RFID-project so that the Devoxx team was able to register statistics throughout the entire week. So next year, the speakers with the least amount of attendees will be removed from the list :)
At the end of a 10-minute break, it was our turn again. I went to a session about Software estimation presented by a passionate Italian, Giovanni Asproni. He was really able to keep everyone’s attention with his live examples and his enthusiasm. After a hacking session (by Sebastian Deleersnyder of OWASP) and the feel of Scala there was Oracle’s Frank Nimphius who presented the latest features of JDeveloper 11g in combination with Oracle’s ADF.
These three days were to most amazing days for me as a rookie Java developer. I could never imagine that there were so many different products on the market that are all Java based. A special thanks to the whole Devoxx team! If you have any interest in Java development, I hope to see you next year @ Devoxx!

Flexbuilder Debug Mode Dog Slow on Mac using Firefox
Quick find today.
Little while back debugging in FB 3.0.x became a brutal exercise in futility. Finally reached a point where I couldn't debug at all. At the time I was running FF2.x. Initially upgraded to FB3 with no change, well no change, except that suddenly I wasn't entering debug mode (bug: had GreaseMonkey Add-On installed - removing it fixed that). Once I was entering Debug again, it would grind my Mac to a halt. Switched to Safari and it worked perfectly. Figured out that Piclense / CoolIris addon for Firefox was in fact the culprit. I uninstalled that add-on and suddenly Debug mode was working just fine again. Lesson learned: If debugging against Firefox, be wary what add-ons you have installed. Hopefully this little lesson will help others.

Collaboration between ICT Companies and High Schools/Universities
When companies are looking for new young potential, what's the potential they're looking for? What are the companies' needs regarding soft skills, technical skills, communication skills, ...
More and more high schools and Universities in Europe are broudening their courses and program for ICT. This month KDG high school in Antwerp organized informal workshops and a getting-acquanted day for companies and teachers to talk about this topic.
Different ICT companies, networking organisations and independent software vendors attended these workshops to talk about the needs of their companies today and in the future.
It was a very pleasant and informal way for each attendee to have an insight in today's business and how high schools and universities can adjust their program to better answer these needs.
The discussion I would like to start with this blog is:
What do you expect from your young potentials?

The discussion I would like to start with this blog is:
What do you expect from your young potentials?
- How do you coach them and which programs do you offer when they start working for your company?
- Do you have some sort of a 'Skill Matrix' where you can denote in which level of expertise they are at that time and how you can augment this in a given period of time?
- Do you offer guided learning paths and courses tailored for them?
- What's the level of expertise you need in soft skills, communication skills and technical skills?
- What's the knowledge or expertise you're missing now and in the future?

Flexbuilder Debug Mode Dog Slow on Mac using Firefox
Quick find today.
Little while back debugging in FB 3.0.x became a brutal exercise in futility. Finally reached a point where I couldn't debug at all. At the time I was running FF2.x. Initially upgraded to FB3 with no change, well no change, except that suddenly I wasn't entering debug mode (bug: had GreaseMonkey Add-On installed - removing it fixed that). Once I was entering Debug again, it would grind my Mac to a halt. Switched to Safari and it worked perfectly. Figured out that Piclense / CoolIris addon for Firefox was in fact the culprit. I uninstalled that add-on and suddenly Debug mode was working just fine again. Lesson learned: If debugging against Firefox, be wary what add-ons you have installed. Hopefully this little lesson will help others.

Oracle for Newbies
On Wednesday iAdvise gave an Oracle seminar at the headquarters of Oracle Belgium in Brussels. That’s not THE big news of course, but for this seminar our audience was different. This time we focused the “newbies”, people who‘ve never or hardly heard about Oracle.
With this seminar we wanted to debunk the myths that:
During the seminar we showed:
With this seminar we wanted to debunk the myths that:
- Oracle is expensive
- Oracle is only for the “big” companies
- Oracle is difficult to install and has steap lurning curve
During the seminar we showed:
- How easily and quickly you can install the Oracle XE Database and Apex
- How fast and flexible you can set up a database structure with SQL Developer or Apex
- How you can create a powerful and professional web application with Apex in no time
- How Apex is based on a extremely simple architecture
- How fast you can deploy the application using SQL Developer or Apex
- How dirt-cheap all these topics are thanks to the free Oracle products
Oracle users already knew this, but at the end of the seminar the “newbies” were also convinced: Oracle is fun !
With the motto “When you hear you forget, when you see you remember, when you do you understand” iAdvise will organize a “Power Day”. During that day we will guide “newbies” while they try this out by theirself.
Are you interested in the “Oracle for Newbies” presentation slides or would you like to have more information about our Power Day? Please contact us at info@iadvise.be.
