the codenaming noise made me feel there must be "something" with the IDE only to go back to my netbeans

And what is the "something" you are searching for, like novices we refer to as "users" do? If you don't know what features will increase your productivity, you will of course expect to get a tool that you speak Yoruba to and it automatically writes the code for you while you sit back and sip your mug of akpeteshi. You went from talking about "noise" to Eclipse plugins issues, all which I properly addressed and now it's obvious you are the one with too much noise. You'll do well to just get very quiet.

You know this thread made me dig into Eclipse's history a bit. I had earlier said that WSAD was based on Eclipse but it seems it might be the other way round or at best they are siblings. Eclipse came from the code-base of VisualAge (wonderful tool). I remember using VisualAge briefly before moving on to its successor - WSAD. But the look-and-feel of Eclipse is closer to WSAD than the VisualAge version I used back in the day. Essentially, Eclipse is from IBM.

cos u are behind d internet does not mean u have to say what u cant say face to face to even your employee at work, to me.

Dude, I will even say worse to you were you in front of me. I have no patience for ignorance.

sledjama:
eclipse like FF, plugins from a version rarely works with another version. u just have to wait or tweak this and that to get it working

You see what I'm saying? Ignorant talk. You see, there is something called a release version: there is minor release and major release. A minor release does not change the functionality of the software components and it's mostly fixes therefore dependencies and APIs (through which plugins communicate with the software) remain the same. Major release versions are EXPECTED to break dependencies and APIs as the functionality of the software under the hood has changed. If you have any software release and none of the plugins break as a result of an upgrade, you can be sure it was not a major release.

These things are standard, and are things I expect a programmer to be aware of no matter how small his experience is.

sledjama:
your views anyway.
when u trying to install something, u see it say galileo, or helios or indigo on the splashscreen, to me thats noise

. . . but you don't hear noise when you start your computer and on the splash screen you see Windows XP or Windows Vista? You never know wetin dey worry u.

If it's a Java host, you can even have a servlet. It simply acts as a proxy similar to what dell_net suggested. All your JDBC code will be in the servlet, and you just expose some commands to the servlet (Command Pattern).

And yes, you can also similar use a web-service (but that's overkill).

OK. U r a Mac freak. I wonder why the code name theme is Felines. Why not after the apple fruit - Orchard, etc?

sledjama:
Netbean rocks, eclipse can be funny. and whats wrong with developers of eclipse, they keep giving it names like helios, etc, just like kiddies do.
who care, just develop the crap and lets use it jo

Quite ignorant. Code names are part and parcel of software development. You will hardly have a version release of a popular software without it having an associated code name usually used for the software pre-release and sometimes much afterwards:

Windows - XP (version 5), Vista (version 6). Well, I don't know of a code name for the simply named Windows 7.

Linux Fedora - Cambridge (version 10), Leonidas (version 11), Constantine (version 12), Goddard (version 13), Laughlin (version 14), etc.

For Eclipse of course anybody with a fair knowledge of astronomy will quickly catch on to what the naming convention is about.

@Candylips
Why not vi editor eh? If we wanna go so retro?

LOL. NetBeans can NEVER top Eclipse. It's not even close. about 4 years ago I read some political article on NetBeans catching up with Eclipse. I had last used NetBeans in 2001, so after reading the article I decided to try it out. Talk about epic fail. In any case, most inexperienced programmers (note I didn't say developer) love NetBeans, but there is a reason IBM's RAD (Rational Application Developer) is based on Eclipse. Of course RAD is better than Eclipse, but it's not free and it's only for WebSphere development. There is a reason the "official" Google IDE for Android is Eclipse.

Interestingly, I started using WSAD (predecessor of RAD) before I realized it was based on Eclipse.

And the only reason I expect any seasoned developer to be using NetBeans is for Swing/AWT development, which NetBeans excels at.

I won't be surprised if he didn't know he was on a suicide mission. They may have told him he was to park the car and walk away, knowing fully well he was to be blown up.

You are probably using Internet Explorer. If that is the case try Mozilla Firefox or if you want to stick with IE install the official Java Plugin.

Apparently people don't know that banking as we know it actually started with the Christian knights called the Knight's Templar. Therefore, we could say we already have Christian Banking.

I've always been of the opinion that actively stealing != profiting from a mistake that someone else made.

I see your points. . . but it will take me some time to internalize it.

@Jamalah, we are talking about jungle justice like d one passed on Gideon in Kano. I want you to pick another jungle justice passed on SUSPECT of may be claiming a change afetr buying a recharge card frm the seller and she raised alarm dt he want to defraud her not an armed robber in which case even the police are affected by our societal norm or killing summarily.

the killing of Gideon was not yesterday, not last year, but you Jamalah went ahead and bring it up with only God knows how u did your findings just to i repeat, cause confusion with nothing to gain. is not as if you are a detective on the case and you want to re-open it, no just like that. Haba malam, al fitnatu na'imun, la'BehindBased Lahu man anqazaha,

Obo Lagido. What's a f.ucking monkey doing wearing a tie? Indeed what goes around comes around. Watch your back, as it's coming from right behind you up your stinking azz.

EuroMeko:
Even in the US, police departments routinely assist each other based on expertise. But I understand the chest pounding nationalism.

And still, you don't see the difference between a US Police Department helping ANOTHER department and this? Or maybe I wasn't aware when the FBI became a department of the Nigeria Police Force.

EuroMeko:
Not sure the need for insult on a conversation but using your analogy, since the Americans called on the Soviets assistance due to their expertise on certain missile, isn't it prudent to ask the Americans for help in solving a terroristic bomb attempt?

At the end if the day we need our own police/intelligence force to be up to speed but we are not there yet so outside help should be welcomed but monitored for ulterior motives.

And you don't seem to get it! They called the Russians simply because they DESIGNED the missiles. Calling them does not mean the Americans given time will not figure out how to deactivate them, but it's time wasting so better to call those who designed it in the first place. So how does this compare with a Police Station getting bombed and then calling the FBI to come help out? Have they ascertained that the bombs are made in America? Yes, true the FBI has more experience of course, but all the same it highlights how redundant our Police Force is - they can't even safe-guard their own station! I mean, how often have we heard of people running into Police Stations for safety only for the mob to drag them out of the Police Station and killed?

If there is sincerity of purpose it's not a bad idea. But we all know how insincere they all are.

sirjec:
Why are we talking as if it is bad for FBI to come and investigate this issue. Every country has it own area of expertise. I remember when America wanted to enter Iraq, they had to call Russia to come and deactivate the missiles Iraq planted to attack any plane flying into the country. Will America now cry that they are finished for not being able to do that?

Dude, use your head. Or maybe you are just so ignorant that it didn't occur to you that the reason Americans could need Russians was SIMPLY because the missiles were designed by the Russians. How then does this analogically fit with bringing the FBI to solve a crime inflicted on our redundant Police Force?

LMAO. A POLICE FORCE had to go get another POLICE FORCE to help crack the bombing of a POLICE STATION. Ridiculous is an understatement.

LOL. How can you ever separate Christianity from politics? The real father of modern Christianity (Constantine) was an adept politician who decided to use an obscure religion as a political tool. The rest as they say, is history.

Who is this annita mo.r.on? Americans still engage in more fraudulent activities than Nigerians. That's standard fact.

[quote author=Ileke-IdI link=topic=688489.msg8511573#msg8511573 date=1307981404]Once again, Ekiti doesnt even hold the highest record for multiple births in Nigeria, so what are you still saying? [/quote]So holding the highest record means exactly what? So when you hear something like "Ekiti multiple births are caused by yam", in your mind, it should mean "Ekiti has the highest number of multiple births"? Logic is missing from your thoughts.

[quote author=tpia@ link=topic=688489.msg8509093#msg8509093 date=1307957547]@ logica

thesame type of yam selected for pounding in ekiti, is also used for the same in other parts of the southwest. There's no magic  or lucky numbers involved.[/quote]Yes there is. Ever heard of the type of yam called "Efuru"? I'll bet you haven't. And that's the difference between Ekiti pounded yam and the rest - they hardly realize that a particular type of yam is best for pounding, and will likely use any type they come across. There is skill involved in knowing the actual type that's best before cooking because there appear to be no real visual discriminator. Even most Ekitis will simply cook all the yam and then pick out the efuru from the lot for pounding.

But of course, I am not stating that efuru is definitely responsible for multiple births; I am only of the opinion that it should not be discounted. Also, the other area in Osun state with a high rate of multiple births DOES NOT have to be yam related. There could be completely different factors at play here.

@tpia,

I think it pays more when you pay attention and read properly before responding. I said there is a particular type of yam SELECTED for making pounded yam which makes it the type mostly consumed by Ekiti people. LOL @ Water yam. You have no clue.

And for the person who says the different types of yam are "white, yellow", it appears you are a fake Ekiti person. No real Ekiti person will categorize yam by color. The categories you will hear are along the lines of "egbodo", etc. Maybe you should ask your grand-mother.

There is a particular type of yam selected for making pounded yam; as of course it produces the best (stretchy) pounded yam. I can't remember what it's called. There are really different types of yam, and any seasoned Ekiti who knows enough about how pounded yam is made will tell you that much. Though it is produced everywhere, it is the type that is consumed most by Ekiti people.

While performance is important AGE can also be a factor in the pricing of a player. Young players (in the 20 to 26 range) are bound to be a bit more pricey that any other range.

Sarcasm/cynicism is lost on some people.

Lots of recent graduates are also jobless. The industry is saturated (you know how Nigerians like to flock into any area where they hear there's money to be made) and many companies are suffering from the economic downturn.

Paraphrasing someone who doesn't know that having something that makes me different from you DOES NOT define me is a waste of time. I bet you need lessons in logical reasoning.

Fhemmmy:
You mean your manliness is what defines who you are . . . .  then, you are just as same as a monkey with a manliness then.

No, my "manliness" does not define me, but it definitely makes me different from you. It appears you are not so good at reading or smart either. I will disregard the other comment, but I'm sure you realize it applies to you as well. Just replace "manliness" with a "vagina".
