And now for more Google news: the Google browser is here - Chrome

Ars has the Chrome scoop

I am trying to get out of the bad habit of just posting links, but, I haven't had time to look into Chrome yet, and this is such a big story even the link might be valuable if you haven't heard about it.

UPDATE

GWT in Practice Sample Code Site

I spent a few hours tonight making a GWT in Practice project over a Google Code Hosting. I found a few other books that were doing this, and I thought it was very helpful (a lot easier to peruse on example online sometimes than to grab a 30MB download for an entire book).

This project includes the sample code in SVN, has links to the relevant GWT in Practice web pages, and has running samples for a few of the apps (for the ones that are only client side code, and therefore capable of being hosted at gCode).

Dumbster:

The Dumbster is a very simple fake SMTP server designed for unit and system testing applications that send email messages. It responds to all standard SMTP commands but does not deliver messages to the user. The messages are stored within the Dumbster for later extraction and verification.

public class SimpleSmtpServerTest extends TestCase {
...
  public void testSend() {
    SimpleSmtpServer server = SimpleSmtpServer.start();

POJO to XML serialization with XStream (and POJO to JSON to boot)

I recently started a project where I am exploring whether or not to use GWT-Ext with GWT in order to leverage some of the widgets therein. One of the first things I ran up against, which seems to hit everyone at some point in this same process, is that GWT-Ext doesn't support GWT-RPC for data feeds out of the box (though they do offer a non-free "Plus" package that can do it - I didn't want to drop the cash though just for an evaluation - maybe more on that later).

James Ward does the Flex and Java show at AJUG tonight

Free, and often even free beer (thanks to the sponsors, you can get ripped even if the talk sucks ;)).
