One of the visionaries of our time passed away on 5th October 2011. “Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Those of us who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve have lost a dear friend and an inspiring mentor. Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple.” http://www.apple.com/stevejobs/ This shows how much Steve has done for Apple and the rest of the world. »
If you download a RPM (Redhat Package Manager) file and wondering how to install it on a Debian Linux distribution like Ubuntu there is a simple solution for that. As Debian distributions normally use DEB) package format for installing software there is an application called Alien which allows us to convert RPM files to DEB format. This is cool. Install Alien application >sudo apt-get install alien Convert your RPM package to DEB >sudo alien -k <application_name>.rpm This will create a new DEB file in the same folder called .deb. »
Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP) is a programming design that addresses a dimension which Object Oriented Programming (OOP) has not considered in developing software. According to AOP expert Philip Laureano it is the time line of the Objects. As I understood once we write a Class, it’s properties and methods in OOP we don’t have any control to the life cycle of the method calls or property access. So if we need to execute some method calls before calling a method or after calling the method we will have to manually add more lines inside the method implementation. »
There is an issue in Apache Axis2 1.5.2 release (including 1.5, 1.5.1). The classes AxisServlet and AxisAdminServlet have been referred from org.apache.axis2.transport.http package in the web.xml file.
