I know that you know that I know that you love Eclipse
I just cast my vote in the JDJ Readers’ Choice Awards. I think of this as superior to the Peoples’ Choice Awards as there is little chance of running into Paris Hilton at the award ceremony. This is for two very good reasons: (1) Paris Hilton isn’t interested in this sort of thing, and (2) [...]

Building an Eclipse RCP for EBay
I sorted it out. Last month, I wrote about some work that I was doing with the EBay SDK and Eclipse RCP. I had a few problems getting the integration to work, but I’ve sorted them out. I demoed it to Ian today and even he thought it looks pretty cool.
So far, the demo isn’t [...]

Crazy Wayne’s Crazy Book Liquidation…
A few days ago, I listed some of the books that we’re going to be giving away at JavaPolis. I just learned that we’re also giving away a whole set of the Addison-Wesley Eclipse Series. I’ll just bet you wish you were going to JavaPolis now.
Mmmm… free books…

The Great Book Giveaway at JavaPolis!
I’m really excited about JavaPolis. We had another member come forward today to contribute to the Eclipse in Action sessions; I can’t wait to post the agenda we’ve assembled: it’s packed with technical sessions that will delight and amaze you.
In a previous post, I mentioned books. Here’s the list of the books we’re giving away [...]

Early in the evening Dave Thomas showed up. Brian Foote was there as well. Of course, our celebrated leader, Mike Milinkovich [...]

Planet Eclipse
I was speaking with a friend and frequent reader of my blog this evening. Dave pointed out to me that there is no indication on my blog of how to access it via RSS feed. I’ve added a link to the right that points to the Atom feed.
For readers who are not already aware (for [...]

Eclipse: Not just for Java
I had originally envisioned the title of this posting including the word “anymore” at the end. However, that would be grossly inaccurate since Eclipse has not been just for Java for some time.
I attended a couple of the morning sessions for the CDT Contributor Summit, hosted by QNX, here in beautiful Ottawa. Curiously, you have [...]

JavaPolis 2005
Eclipse is going to be at JavaPolis in Antwerp, Belgium in December. I’m really excited about this conference for a few reasons. To start, I’ve never been to Belgium. I’ve been close a few times, but I’ve never actually been in the country. I love Europe so I jump on just about any chance I [...]

PHPEclipse 1.1.7 and WTP 0.7.1
I updated WTP to version 0.7.1 today and something curious happened: the option to edit HTML files using the HTML editor disappeared. Strange, I thought. When I reverted back to WTP 0.7, the ability returned.
I created a completely new and separate installation of Eclipse 3.1.1 to verify the problem. After loading WTP 0.7.1, everything worked [...]
