Date format in Oracle SQL Developer
I know, i know... Oracle SQL Developer really sucks :) I think i got used to it, though...
Anyway, here is the line to set custom, detailed date format for a session:
Anyway, here is the line to set custom, detailed date format for a session:
alter session set nls_date_format = 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS';Uff, it took me quite a while to figure it out.

Java "user.home" property
I was working on a Grails project, and noticed very poor perfomance of resolving the dependencies - no less than 5 seconds. My colleagues got this phase working at least 5 times faster!
After little investigation i've found out that problem was with Java "user.home" system property, pointing to the network path.
This situation causes even more troubles, as all the apps which use Java "user.home" create their ".something/" in the path, specified by this property. And after that they all work very slow because of network latency.
I've found a fix here:
Cool!

CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders\Desktopvalue to
%userprofile%\Desktopsolved the problem.
Cool!

Clean code
I highly recommend this book to every software developer. Written in simple language, a lot of examples, very valuable insights.
Here is the mind map of the presentation, which i've done for my colleagues:
I cannot include presentation itself, as it contains company source code examples :/

Bye Bye Linux
Ok, i cannot handle it anymore... It just takes too much time and effort to make some specific things working correctly!
I believe it is cool system, but not for software development using latest technologies like GWT.
I am switching back to Windows. I will miss Ubuntu and bash... Especially bash!

Hibernate, versioning and DRY
Recently i was working on a project, where we were using "tracked" objects. This is a kind of versioning mechanism, implemented on DB level using triggers.
When i was starting to implement tracked objects in Hibernate, i've noticed that there are few properties that every tracked object has:
There are four types of inheritance relation used in Hibernate, well-described here:
Turns out copy-pasting all these versioning information is the best way to do things? Looks like this.
When i was starting to implement tracked objects in Hibernate, i've noticed that there are few properties that every tracked object has:
- T_PK - primary key in table with versions
- T_START - starting moment for transcation
- T_END - end moment for transcation
There are four types of inheritance relation used in Hibernate, well-described here:

- One table per concrete class
That sounded good at first glance, but it allows the reusing only on java side, and i don't care about it too much because it is auto generated. - One table per concrete class with union-subclass mapping
In this case all versed objects should be a <union-subclass>, plus they have to be in one hibernate mapping file with the parent class.
Not sure if it is ok... It may produce what i want, but i have all the versed objects in one place. This option is supposed to be used for polymorphic queries, and i want to just have all the fields in one place. - One table per class hierarchy
It is just not suitable at all, we have a bunch of tables instead of one. - Implicit polymorphism
Again, not suitable because java objects are generated.
http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/stable/core/reference/en/html/components.htmlGot a few problems here also:
- ID couldn't be a part of aggregated object
- It is copy-pasting too
- hbm2java produces strange things when component is in place (maybe i was doing something wrong, i haven't dig deep there)
Turns out copy-pasting all these versioning information is the best way to do things? Looks like this.

VMware player - the ultimate hotkey destroyer
I've encountered very annoying issue while using VMware player - all my Linux hotkeys were suddenly dropped out when vmplayer was launched. I couldn't even open a new tab in Firefox until i execute setxkbmap command.
After searching on google and investigating different options for virtual machine i've found combination that particially solved problem.
<Win XP>.vmx file
