In this article I will introduce you to Hibernate 3 persistence framework. This article is worth to read, because give you a very fast track to Hibernate; I have used this tool for the past six years, when only the good 2.x series was out of there. Then I have the lucky of training two teams on two different and big projects, with a “zero time” to teach them hibernate. So I decided to put here my advices, hints, tips and tricks, for the rest of the guys around the World.

(Updated on 2014,2018) Programma suggerito del percorso formativo:

1. Object Oriented Programming (OOP) & Java
   • Hollywood Principle, "don't call us, we'll call you".
   • Struts 1.2 e succ
   • Hibernate, speed intro.
2. Consulenza
   • Articolo: Customers Don't Know What They Want. Stop Expecting Customers to Know What They Want.
3. Design Patterns e modellazione
   • CRC Cards
   • Wikipedia definition
4. ToolBox as a plus:
   1. JUnit e HttpUnit Cookbook
   2. Regular Expressions Esempio animato Editor per esercitarsi
   3. Linux Filosofia alla base di Unix, da "The Art of Unix Programming" di Eric Steven Raymond
   4. Linguaggio open a scelta, diverso da Java: Python, Perl o Ruby Cosa provare: RubyOnRails, GoogleAPI in python, librerie CPAN del Perl
5. Approfondimenti
   • Esempio di  project management semplificato.
   • Bug Tracing Tools.
   • eBay: esempio di progettazione scalabile
   • La cattedrale e il bazaar di E.Raymond. Versione originale.
   • Net Cat.

Il seguente esercizio operativo serve per prendere confidenza con:

Sun ha lanciato JavaFX 1.0, piattafroma software  di cui ci siamo già occupati in tempi non sospetti. La notizia è stata ripresa da Slashdot. Purtroppo leggiamo anche che non c’è al momento una versione per Linux o Solaris: “The lack of a Linux or Solaris release is a notable absence.” Però la presenza del codec On2  (usato per riprodurre i filmati di youtube) lascia pensare che javafx voglia competere frontalmente con Flash.

The 4.x way is to use JDK (>=5) annotation, but if you for some reason have to use the JDK 1.4 you have two solutions. The one I prefer is to use junit 3.8.x but if you cannot tolerate the missing of JUnit 4.x in the attached PDF you’ll find the standard 4.x way (with annotation) and a workaround for using the old JUnit TestSuite syntax.

At Gioorgi.com we do not see the point of using Annotations, anyway, this is JDK 5 babies. So, thank you edivad for your help on finding a way to run junit3 tests on junit4!

After my past experience with bad hosting provider, I am happy to say I have find a very good hosting service. If you need VPS hosting, Rimuhosting is a very good choice.
