Core Java Refcard: My second dzone refcard has been published. This refcard gives you an overview of key aspects of the Java language and cheat sheets on the core library (formatted output, collections, regular expressions, logging, properties) as well as the most commonly used tools (javac, java, jar).
Features include Java Keywords, Standard Java Packages, Character Escape Sequences, Collections and Common Algorithms, Regular Expressions, JAR Files and more. Posted by cayhorstmann at (21:06 PST) | Permalink | Discuss (0)

Heap dump on Linux 64 bits: With the current stable JDK 6u7 it is not possible to generate heap dump on linux 64 bits. Looks like it was a bug, fixed on JDK 6 u10 RC. Read on for more details. Posted by claudio at (20:52 PST) | Permalink | Discuss (0)
Dependency Managment with Glassfish Updatecenter and IPS: In a previous blog, I wrote about how to create a basic updatecenter module for Glassfish v3. Since I've just finished working on something a touch more complex, this time I'll cover how the Update Center's IPS structure handles dependency managment, including a fairly odd corner case that I had to recently deal with.

In this third part, we'll focus on the MusicAlbumProvider class which is needed to complete the implementation of the connector to access music albums from a JDBC database.
