Reopening SWT bug 141282

November 8th, 2007

I spent several hours to locate a SWT problem with DND and special characters in path on OSX. The hard part was that strings were are correctly displayed by SWT and work with the file API. But if you try to compare or check equality of this string with another one, it always fails because a special char uses 2 chars instead of one. This is only an encoding problem, but not easy to find.

See Bug 141282 on Eclipse
and Bug 97 on ShareMedia bugtracker

ShareMedia 0.3.1 is coming

November 2nd, 2007

Just publishing a screenshot of the latest and soon-to-be-released build of ShareMedia. This is me, browsing a Google Picasa album in ShareMedia on a dual monitor setup running Windows.

UI is is french but will hopefully switch to english depending of your locale.

Browsing Picasa Web

ShareMedia latest features include :

  • Write support for Picasa Web Albums (create new albums, upload files)
  • Better information view
  • Bug fixes
  • A lot of new extension points for developers

About ShareMedia : This is an opensource project, which goal is to create a multi platform photo manager and viewer (well, there is a basic support for videos too and music is planned), being able to use any backend for file storage : (your computer, friends computers, Picasa, Flickr, FaceBook, ..) while keeping the same features (copy, edit metadata, 3D slideshow, …). It is based on the Eclipse RCP framework.

The latest nightly builds can be found here (be careful, these are dev builds. Linux builds have problems with OpenGL)

The project page is here at sourceforge.

Thumbnails are displayed using the Nebula Gallery Widget
(We’re looking for help too :-) )

Talend training

October 8th, 2007

I’m having a Talend Open studio training today on the brand new 2.2.0 GA release. This release includes some nice new features such as advanced XML generation, export jobs as webservices, LDAP connectors, easy logging, automatic deployement on SpagoBI, etc.

One funny thing (hum) is that they are also hit by the update site issue of RCP 3.3 I have with ShareMedia (no update site listed in the update manager)
