GWT allows you to extend the animation class and create your own custom animations. I was reading this post earlier today and decided to take that code a little further and put it all together into a workable GWT project in Eclipse.

Creating a custom GWT animation
Wednesday, September 8th, 2010Tutorial: A working Spring Framework 3.0 example in 5 minutes
Monday, September 6th, 2010The Spring Framework has permeated the entire Java ecosystem and has grown to include web frameworks and even integrating into GWT. Today we will use some core Spring functionality.
Using SQLite with Android to power an AutoComplete textbox
Monday, August 2nd, 2010I haven’t seen a lot of tutorials on using SQLite with Android. Sure there are some out there, but not too many real basic ones. Today I’ll create a simple Android project that uses the built-in SQLite capabilities of Android and then use the data inside the SQLite database to populate values for an autocomplete textbox. Some of the AutoComplete code I’ll use from the Google Android Docs located here.
Using Android’s WebView, WebChromeClient and WebViewClient to load a webpage and display the progress
Monday, July 26th, 2010I’ve been working with the Android SDK and Eclipse tools for a while now. The article today won’t be the most fantastic Android application out there but it will show some potential on how you could harness WebView for your own applications.
Build an App Engine powered Flash application for the Droid X
Thursday, July 1st, 2010Well its true I don’t have an Android phone yet. My contract with my current phone is due to run out later this summer at which point I hope to move onto one of the newer Android phones (hopefully with Android 2.2). With that said that doesn’t stop myself or any other developer for building Flash apps for Android 2.2. Today I’ll use App Engine, Adobe Flash CS5, Adobe Device Central, and Eclipse to build a simple application on the Motorola Droid X and show how everything can be made to work together.
Book Review: Amazon SimpleDB Developer Guide
Sunday, June 27th, 2010Today I’m going to review “Amazon SimpleDB Developer Guide” by Prabhakar Chaganti and Rich Helms.
GFS Server has been updated
Thursday, May 20th, 2010If you use my open source GFS Server you might be interested to know that I have updated the project files to use Netbeans 6.8, Apache Mina 1.1.7, as well as the latest SFL4J and MySQL JDBC Connector. No code has been modified in this update.
You can head over to the Google Code site to check it out as well as see some of the plans I have for the future including updating the examples to use by default the new Flash Pro CS5 and FlashBuilder 4 products.
Working with a theme resource in Vaadin
Wednesday, April 21st, 2010Vaadin can do a lot out of the box. The other day I wanted to simply display an image so I began to look at the demo and then at the code for ThemeResource. I checked out the Vaadin forums and quickly found a good way to solve this. At the same time I also wanted to use the black version of the Reindeer theme (which is baked into Vaadin). Today I’ll show you how I did this and hopefully it can help someone out.
Quickly learning how to use the Google Maps API with GWT 2
Thursday, April 8th, 2010Recently I took a look at the Google Maps API. Overall the Google Maps API is very well documented and I was pleased to see that they have also done the heavy lifting to integrate Google Maps with the Google Web Toolkit, or GWT. Today I’m going to expand on the sample code they provide and show you how to get everything setup and working – which is sometimes half the battle. We will then simply make the map pan from one location to another and put our markers and info windows in place.
Getting started building online games with Vaadin
Tuesday, March 30th, 2010The Vaadin Directory was recently opened and I took a look around and was impressed with what I seen so far. A couple directory addons caught my eye in regards to being some good building blocks for those that would like to make online games using HTML/JavaScript (and Java on the back end) with minimal fuss. If you’ve already worked with GWT then you will feel right at home with Vaadin.
