A frequent question among Linux users is installing the JRE plugin either in Mozilla or Mozilla Firebird (the browser formally known as Phoenix). This is surprisingly simple…
Download a Java Runtime Environment from java.sun.com. I would suggest getting the latest version, which can be obtained from here. Once you’ve installed it, you just have to make a symlink from the appropriate shared library to the “plugins” directory under your Mozilla install.
Here is the command that I executed, given that Mozilla is intalled in /opt/MozillaFirebird and Java is installed in /opt/java:
ln -s /opt/java/jre/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji.so /opt/MozillaFirebird/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so
To test it, point your browser at the BBC. They have a Java applet at the top of the page.

StrutsDoc is an extension task for Ant that allows developers to generate Javadoc-like documentation based on their various Struts configuration files. The 0.3 release provides support for Stxx and Tiles configuration files, as well as Struts module configurations.
This release has been tested with Ant 1.5.2 and 1.5.3, running on JDK 1.4.x on Windows and Linux. Earlier JDK versions will probably with with no problem, but Xalan must be provided in the classpath as XSLT is used to generate the documentation.
StrutsDoc 0.3 is released under the BSD license and can be obtained from the sourceforge.net site:

I’ve been slowly making the switch to Linux on my primary laptop and finally decided to try to get my Palm Pilot working with it. Using the pilot-link software, it only took 10 minutes. I think this is mostly due to running a recent Linux distro (RedHat 9). Here’s the README that I used to get things going.
Maybe there’s hope for Linux on the desktop yet. If only I could replace QuickBooks….

I’ve made a copy of my article, ‘Introduction to Hibernate’, available for download in PDF format. It can be found here. I’d like to know what you think of it. I’ve had some very positive responses, so now I’m working on ideas for future articles.
This is the same article that can be found on The Server Side.
