Example of how to use both JDK 7 and JDK 8 in one build.

JDK 8 Released

Most of us won’t be able to use/deploy JDK 8 in production for a looong time. But that shouldn’t stop us from using it, right?

It should be possible to sneak in JDK 8 in the back way, the same way we snuck in Groovy and other libraries we wanted to use.

The Test Suite to the rescue

The Maven compiler plugin run in two separate lifecycles, compile and testCompile. Those can be configured separately.

Whiteboard Picture Cleaner - Shell one-liner/script to clean up and beautify photos of whiteboards!

Description

This simple script will take a picture of a whiteboard and use parts of the ImageMagick library with sane defaults to clean it up tremendously.

The script is here:

#!/bin/bash
convert "$1" -morphology Convolve DoG:15,100,0 -negate -normalize -blur 0x1 -channel RBG -level 60%,91%,0.1 "$2"

PrintCompilation on different versions of HotSpot VM

About PrintCompilation

This note tries to document the output of PrintCompilation flag in HotSpot VM. It was originally intended to be a reply to a blog post on PrintCompilation from Stephen Colebourne. It's kind of grown too big to fit as a reply, so I'm putting it here.

Written by: Kris Mok rednaxelafx@gmail.com

Most of the contents in this note are based on my reading of HotSpot source code from OpenJDK and experimenting with the VM flags; otheres come from HotSpot mailing lists and other reading materials listed in the "References" section.
