Since I spend a lot of time working with Spring, one of the many blogs in my daily read list is the SpringSource Team Blog, both articles and comments. I have gotten really tired, however, of the constant SEO spammers hitting the SpringSource blog.
It’s unfortunate that with SpringSource’s multi-million dollar funding rounds ($15M raised this summer, and $10M previously raised), they can’t find the resources to upgrade their very dated WordPress install with one that is more spam resistant, nor has anyone from the company even responded publicly to the many calls for fixing this issue.
A heads up in case anyone is thinking about using these together. Currently (Aug 18, 2008), the release version of Hibernate IDE (aka the Hibernate Eclipse plugin) does not work with Eclipse 3.4 (”Ganymede”) without one of 2 things:
- Unjarring, copying, and rejarring a file from Eclipse 3.3
- Using the Hibernate IDE Nightly Update Site
Discussion for this is covered in the Hibernate Forums and in HBX-1068 in Hibernate JIRA.
Since it’s already fixed in the nightlies, your best bet is to hit the nightly build site for the tools. If you’re afraid of the nightlies and/or the harder install process and want to pull the missing class (”org/eclipse/ui/internal/util/SWTResourceUtil”) from Eclipse 3.3, do this:
- Copy the “org.eclipse.ui.workbench” jar from your Eclipse 3.3 install/plugins directory to a temp directory (say, c:\temp). Mine was called “org.eclipse.ui.workbench_3.3.1.M20070921-1200.jar”
- Extract the missing class file:
jar xvf org.eclipse.ui.workbench_3.3.1.M20070921-1200.jar org/eclipse/ui/internal/util/SWTResourceUtil.class
- Copy the “org.eclipse.ui.workbench” jar from your Eclipse 3.4 install/plugins directory to the same directory. Mine was called “org.eclipse.ui.workbench_3.4.0.I20080606-1300.jar”
- Update the JAR file: jar uvf org.eclipse.ui.workbench_3.4.0.I20080606-1300.jar org/eclipse/ui/internal/util/SWTResourceUtil.class
- Copy the Eclipse 3.4 JAR file back to your Eclipse 3.4 install/plugins directory (overwriting the original).
That should do it! Note that this information is only correct until the next version of the Hibernate IDE tools are make into a formal release. The last release date listed on the site was April 9, 2008, so I would guess a new release would occur soon.
Straightforward explanation and solution of the IE checkbox bug here.
Just ran into this goofy issue recently. So, if you set the ‘checked’ attribute on a checkbox before it’s part of the DOM, in IE 6, the checkbox will not actually be checked. Brilliant!
Solution:
- Set the checked attribute after adding the node to the DOM
- Set the defaultChecked attribute to true prior to adding the node to the DOM
An example of this with Prototype (using solution #2, above) is:
anElem.appendChild(new Element("input",
{'type':'checkbox','name':'mycb','checked':'checked','defaultChecked':'true'}));Don’t forget to keep the ‘checked’ attribute in there so it works with other (good) browsers!
(For the overly literal among you, that isn’t really a bug number, it’s sarcasm.)
