Still Alive!

Posted on May 2, 2010 by mhicks

Well, this is a great title for this post not only as it’s the first blog post I’ve made here in seven months, but I’ve also had the song from Portal stuck in my head lately. 🙂 Looking at my blog it would be easy to classify me as MIA but I’ve actually been quite…

jSeamless 2.0 is Coming!

Posted on August 13, 2009 by mhicks

From the outside looking in it would appear that jSeamless is all but dead, but if you’ve been paying attention to SVN commits you’ll notice there’s been quite a lot of activity for the past several months. I have somewhat abandoned what small community I had with jSeamless 1.0 in an effort to “start over”…

Java Media Components (JMC) in Swing

Posted on May 4, 2009 by mhicks

If you’re like me and have been really excited by all the hype of JMC, but think of yourself as a Java developer and not a fly being beckoned to the newest scripting framework with its bright and illuminating glow (JavaFX that is) then JMC comes as something of a disappointment. After all, every article…

I Hate JavaFX; I Love JavaFX!

Posted on February 28, 2009 by mhicks

I’ve posted a few places and gotten into more than a few rants publicly about how awful I think it is that Sun has been pushing JavaFX to the Java community. This has not been based on what JavaFX provides, because I think that’s absolutely spectacular, but rather that they created a whole new language…

Flex WebBrowser Component

Posted on February 18, 2009 by mhicks

I’ve been working on an acceptable solution to display web pages within my Flex applications and as any of you know that have done any research on it will find, it’s frustrating how lacking Flex is in support for this. The ideal solution would be for Flex to provide a fully functional component that renders…

Java Delegates

Posted on July 1, 2008 by mhicks

If you’re searching the internet for the title of this post you’ll see a lot of people ranting about how Java doesn’t have Delegate support. Though I have been one of these people, and continue to be frustrated that there is no native solution, that is not the purpose of this post. I write this…

Flash/Flex URLRequest Upload Security Hack

Posted on December 28, 2007 by mhicks

It’s been a while since I posted and after dealing with this horrid bug in Flash I figured it would be a great topic to get me back on track. So, apparently there’s this nifty little bug in Flash/ActionScript with the URLRequest object when you attempt to do a file upload, it uses a completely…

Flash/Flex URLRequest Upload Security Hack – Part 2

Posted on December 28, 2007 by mhicks

So I lied, apparently my hackery wasn’t enough to appease IE even though Firefox happily worked going forward. Apparently in IE it determines, “Oh, I’ve been authenticated on this URL before…so lets send broken authentication information instead of an upload”, and then no matter what you respond back to the request with it just ignores…

Applet Roadblock

Posted on December 28, 2007 by mhicks

My massive hack for native drag-and-drop in jSeamless Flex implementation is functional, but only in Firefox. Apparently there is an interesting “feature” in IE that even though you may sign your Applet and the user grants that they way to trust said Applet, it still never gives you read access to the file system. That…

Flex Native Drag-and-Drop: The Massive Hack

Posted on December 28, 2007 by mhicks

I had made the commitment a while back that I was going to add complete and perfect drag-and-drop support to jSeamless. The Flex Implementation proclaims support for DnD so I’ve just pushed off the investigation up until recently. However, now that I’ve come to implement this great functionality I realize that there is absolutely no…
