Time permitting, we’ll finish off the session with a quick look at testing your Android application. We won’t cover every topic and API available to developers, but you should leave with enough information to get you started on your own Android app.

Presentation Information

As a Java Developer, we all want to be more productive. Spring Roo can help by creating and managing your Spring-based applications by allowing you to easily add and configure features such as JPA, Spring MVC, WebFlow, JMS, Email, and Spring Security.
For the June 2010 session, an introduction to Spring Roo was presented. However, in this session, we will revisit Spring Roo as a rapid application development framework, examine it’s default architecture, see how usage of AspectJ’s Inter-type declaration(ITD) features can reduce boilerplate code, quickly build and deploy a complete Spring MVC application and show usage of the incremental database reverse engineering (DBRE) addon.

Clojure Life by Alex Miller

Clojure is a new language that combines the power of Lisp with an existing hosted VM ecosystem (the Java VM).  Clojure is a dynamically typed, functional, compiled language with performance on par with Java.

This talk will introduce the Clojure language using Conway’s classic ”game of life” with cellular automata.  We’ll look at a Clojure implementation and explore different design choices around data representation and concurrency while digressing to teach the basics of the language itself.
