Liferay Portal
Wow. What an experience working with a beast of a portal server. It’s around 85 MB in size as well as does lot of stuffs when it comes to managing portals. No nasty configuration steps as well as easily deployable with tomcat/jboss bundled. I am waiting to see more application servers integration support. It also supports pretty good extended environment to compile our applications adding portlets.
I must say open source community is now into a new as well as different channel of thought. And this one is pretty big. It’s a java portal but still it should be disturbing all of the perl as well as python developers.
I must say web developing as well as content management are pretty big as well as frequent words used these days. I had the oppurtunity to work in liferay (and still continuing) as well as i learnt the core idea.
I trust it shall serve as a pretty good enterprise platform on behalf of content management as well as applications. Since lightweight java services like Springs, Struts etc creating significant market, liferay is set to get mature with them. Even though i could not work much on configuring

Display tags are pretty good option when it comes to creating a enterprise class data grid.

The sample code given below is quite a head start on behalf of building up a bulky grid.
// Create class that returns a list

package org.ixfree.Displayags;

import java.util.*;

public class GridList {
private List aList;
public List getAList() {

return aList;

Being JavaScript crazy, i have little excitement when it comes to JSP expressions other non AJAX data rendering. But recently, i managed to understand something referred to as OGNL an Opensource fix on behalf of data handling through expressions. OGNL is pretty well utilized in Struts 2 framework as part of the Client segment. OGNL in Struts 2 basically provides a rich set of interfaces to access the call stack which is otherwise referred to as as ActionContext. This makes the data/parameter handling simple as well as clean.
I trust OSS efforts like these have quite a good possibility to find their space in web 2.0. And more importantly Object/data notation require more standardization in the world wide web. One can give a endeavour of Struts 2.0 considering the simplicity as well as power of OGNL expressions. This OGNL adds to my recent favourites inline  JSON.

I have written reasonably good amount of JavaScript programs to call myself proficient in the language. But i at all times had a little doubt or uncertainty on how good i can utilize this beauty. Sometimes rather numerous times i have felt that i am not fully utilizing the powerful concepts of OO as well as Modeling in JavaScript. But time/quick to market takes more importance i felt. But that’s no excuse to appreciate this fantastic language that has contributed in numerous sphere of the evolving Internet age.
I seriously feel that the programming language as well as more importantly scripting languages like this one become more mature by how it is used by programmers around the world. The model evolves based on their understandings as well as feedback . As far as i have seen, people have concentrated more on the amazingly utility it gives more than the model that should be followed on behalf of better maintainability as well as cleanliness. This is a very important point considering the very nature of this scripting language. It can get too messy when the scope increases.Read more >>>

I come across the word at least 100 times in a day. But when ever i hear the word, i tend to think weather the word is used in the right tense as well as meaning. It has been around on behalf of more than a decade. People who trust in free software are not on behalf of the term Open Source. Still they are right in a way. People talk very serious business opt on behalf of tidy proprietary techniques. But days have altered given that technology requirements have more leverage in terms of choices as well as cost effectiveness. The java community has taken this word as a powerful sword to win business which i feel is pretty healthy. As far as i am concerned, i trust in healthy business ecosystem as well as how ever you can it, either as Open Source or open Standard or Open Thoughts etc.., At the end of the day what matters to me is the society as well as healthy ecosystem.
The world can't reside pure capitalistic (recent markets slide shows that quite well) not deep routed communism too. Both the concepts are quite solid. Agreed. They are pillars. But now there's not so much space left in this world to build pillars which doesn’t helps in easy movement of commodit
