Before writing for InfoQ, Barry Burd and I co-authored numerous articles for what was once Java Boutique (see details below) between 2005-2008. Barry and I work and write well together and we may plan further collaborative efforts. Please stay tuned...
I currently serve as a Java Queue news editor for InfoQ since May 2016 writing news articles related to the Java programming language. The complete list of my news articles are listed below:
Barry Burd and I co-authored a total of nine (9) articles for Java Boutique (now known as JGuru). The original links to the articles were redirected to JGuru. I originally didn't think this would be a problem since I was sure that the articles were still intact. The only trick was to search for the articles and obtain the new links. However, to my horror and dismay, I learned that the articles seemed to have disappeared. It would appear that QuinStreet took over the Jupiter Media operations (publishers of Java Boutique), but didn't maintain any of the original articles. This was indeed very disheartening.
Luckily, I have the original PDF files and corresponding source code for each of the articles. I have been reorganizing all of the source code and will create a repository on Github for each one. Please stay tuned for links to the repositories as they are completed. The PDF versions of the articles can be downloaded below:
| Access Your Stored Java Objects with the Iterator Design Pattern (published June 30, 2008) | |
| Controlling Global Access to Your Java Objects with the Singleton Design Pattern (published November 20, 2007) | |
| Encapsulating Algorithms with the Template Method Design Pattern (published February 9, 2007) | |
| Get to Know Your Java Object's State of Mind with the State Design Pattern (12/14, 2006) | |
| Resitance is Futile - How to Make Your Java Objects Conform with the Adapter Pattern (published September 25, 2006) | |
| Manufacturing Java Objects with the Factory Method Design Pattern (published August 14, 2006) | |
| Keeping Your Java Objects Informed with the Observer Design Pattern (published June 19, 2006) | |
| Avoid Excessive Subclassing with the Decorator Design Pattern (published January 27, 2006) | |
| JAMES: The Java Apache Mail Enterprise Server (published September 30, 2005) |
All source code has been built and run using Gradle and Ant. A consistent directory structure has been created and maintained for all the source code that correspond to each Java Boutique article. The example below corresponds to a typical directory structure relative to the article entitled, "Keeping Your Java Objects Informed with the Observer Design Pattern."
