Programming

When building a reasonably complex Swing application, more often than not you might end up needing a GUI component that is not made available in the Java distribution. In the following tutorial I will present the required steps to make a working treeview with checkboxes that allows the user to browse his/her filesystem.

Recently, I've started a project and selected CakePHP as the framework I should build it on. I was somewhat familiar with Cake and MVC, so starting up wasn't such a big problem, but (as with many other "magic-based" frameworks, I guess) I quickly ran into trouble:

I found an interesting site that allows you to draw various diagrams (www.gliffy.com) only using your web browser. The application is made in Flash, has undo, copy/paste and export to PNG, JPEG and SVG features.

Yet another nice free thing :)
