A Balanced and Fair Look at Objective-C (Dec 07 2003 21:59 GMT) - Jonathan Rentzsch has written a great article about what he loves and hates about Objective-C. I’ve wanted to write this article for a long time, but now Rentzsch has saved me the time and also done a better job than I probably would have. Now I can just cover the places where I disagree or have something to add. Love 7: |

Cheese Well (Fieldnotes by Martin) (Dec 07 2003 21:56 GMT) - Sunday 7/12/03 Just over one hour of climbing up the Red Bull XC you reach the summit of Minch Moor at 567 metres. The beautiful climb up on singletrack gives way to an eye watering swooping bermy descent down to the Southern Upland Way, where, just over the other side of the Minch, the Cheese Well gurgles away. The sun has yet to reach this part of the hill and it's still frosty and very nippy. This is a fairly lonely and isolated spot, but the stunning scenery all around and the atmosphere here gives ... |

pdabuyersguide Reviews HP iPAQ 4350 (Dec 07 2003 21:54 GMT) - "HP released the 4350 just two weeks after its brother the 4150. While Palm OS users have been able to purchase PDAs with integrated thumb keyboards, this is the first Pocket PC to feature an integrated thumb keyboard. While not as petit as the 4150 thanks to the added keyboard and larger capacity battery, it is in all other respects identical to the 4150, and you'll notice that our 4150 and 4350 reviews share a good deal of content. Note that in the HP tradition, the iPAQ 4350 and 4355 are the same unit, the final digit indicates whether it was sold via consumer or business channels. We have the 4350, so will use that model number in our review. |

Bistro (Dec 07 2003 21:53 GMT) - Bistro is a new programming language that integrates the best features of Smalltalk and Java. Bistro is a variation of Smalltalk that runs on top of any Java virtual machine (VM) that conforms to Sun's Java specifications. Bistro offers Smalltalk developers a means by which to reuse the models they built with Smalltalk. Bistro provides mechanisms for translating Smalltalk model code into Java, so that models originally built with Smalltalk may be deployed on and execute in a Java environment. Further, like Smalltalk, Bistro offers software developers the ability to continue to build software models with a syntax that approaches the expressiveness and readability of natural language |

Isolate server includes' runtime context (Dec 07 2003 21:53 GMT) - Dynamically included JavaServer Pages (JSP) pages and servlets offer simple, but limited means for frontend code encapsulation and reuse. A dynamically included resource often relies on runtime data (request parameters, JSP-scoped attributes), and this restricts the runtime context from which it can be included. This article shows how to achieve true black-box reuse of frontend logic in the form of JSP pages or Java servlets, by wrapping the servlet request object and effectively creating a local runtime context for an included resource. |
