Real Invaders game
Real Invaders, a Mobile & Embedded community project, is a game where you physically move your phone to put the target on the spacecraft to fire. The game does not use the accelerometer; instead, it uses the camera for motion tracking. Real Invaders works on Nokia mobile phones that have Symbian OS series 60 and 240x320 screen resolution pixels, like the N95, N73, 6120 classic, 6110 navigator, etc.

More than a year on after release of version 1.1, EoD SQL has been released. EoD SQL is "a super light-weight Object <-> Relational mapping layer. Based originally on the java.sql features of Java 6 beta (features later removed), EoD SQL has grown enormously from where is began, but has stuck to it's core principal of 'Get out of my way and let me talk to my database'."

Re: The SwingConstants Problem
I guess my introduction was a little wonky. Let me reexplain. How about JTabbedPane.setTabPlacement(int)? It only takes SwingConstants TOP, BOTTOM, LEFT, and RIGHT. It throws an IllegalArgumentException if the value is not one of those constants, but the code compiles and without looking at the JavaDoc how do I know that any integer isn't valid. It's the standard problem of int-constants. It's easy to replace such constants with a single enum. —
Re: Java Quick Starter IO activity question
I agree with the complaint here. I have turned JQS off on most of my systems now (Windows XP) due to the massive number of page faults that it causes. From the documentation I've read and what I've observed, Java is essentially launching itself constantly so that launching it in the future is faster. This makes me slightly angry. If Java is pulled out of RAM by the operating system then it probably was in the overall system's best interest to have it pulled out of RAM. I don't agree that Java runtimes are privileged enough that they should begin overriding what my operating system is working hard to accomplish. —
Re: Is it possible to send parameters/variables to a Handler
If you really want it SOAP call-specific, perhaps placing an implicit SOAP header for "logging" in the SOAP request message would be a good solution. You can have wsimport generate an extra parameter for you to place the logging value in. —
