Monitoring Tomcat with JMX Larry Williams points out how to monitor Tomcat 5.5.x with JMX.

To monitor your Tomcat instance with JMX start Tomcat with the following JVM parameters.

-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=9000
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false

I'm posting this hear so it's easier to find when I get time to try this out. Posted in Java at Feb 02 2005, 03:23:17 PM MST 4 Comments

Generate your iBATIS mapping files with sql2iBatis From the iBATIS mailing list:

Hi everyone, 

I just wanted to remind everyone of Alex Egorov's sql2iBatis tool. 
I've recently had the chance to try it.  If you have a database that's
already created, this will save you a lot of time.  It will kickstart
your project.

Given DDL, it generates the SQL Mapping files and the JavaBeans.  It's
super simple and extremely fast.  You may want to tweak the Perl to
generate bean field naming conventions to your liking, or just
refactor it afterwards.   You might also want to run the source
through Jalopy or your favorite IDE formatter to achieve the
formatting you want.

However you cut it, this tool will save you tons of time (even if you
don't use everything it generates...deleting is faster than writing).

Too bad it's a perl script. It would be nice to add something like this to AppFuse so you could get the same generate-mapping-files thing like Hibernate has with XDoclet. Posted in Java at Feb 02 2005, 07:10:11 AM MST 5 Comments
