The false optimism of GORM and Hibernate. Posted by: Marc Palmer. On Nov 12, 2012 No Comments. There’s a bunch of problems using Hibernate with concurrent access to the same rows in the database. Applications you could be forgiven for ignoring these, because in general the GORM Hibernate examples and documentation err on the side of simplicity rather than completeness. What causes concurrent DB problems in web apps? No problem, I’m already checking for changes to the object version. Optimistic Locking is...

An Army of Solipsists. An Alternative Approach for Grails Integration Tests. I like the approach that Grails takes for integration (and unit) testing; it’s similar to the testing strategy that I’ve used in non-Grails apps. Using HSQLDB. To create an in-memory test database significantly reduces the time required to run database tests, and Hibernate’s database independence means you don’t need to pollute application code to make it testable. Blocks and with transactional Services. Method is used to popula...

In Groovy and Grails. Getting started with Arduino / Rainbowduino. Posted by: Marc Palmer. On Jan 17, 2012 11 Comments. I recently bought some Arduino. The great thing is that actually, with only a little knowledge, doing this stuff is really easy. The Arduino board designs and software are open source, which is a good thing. However as usual this means the docs can be problematic. Starter kit, I managed after digging out the spec sheet on the display, to create a counter from 0001 to 9999. This soun...

Yes you CAN use Grails. Posted by: Marc Palmer. On May 1, 2010 No Comments. This is a rough and ready recording of me re-enacting the talk I gave at JAX London 2010 on February 24th. It talks about Grails basics and how Grails is the perfect fit for existing Java development shops, and the things you need to know to make it possible to use it in your workplace. Well, at least you can try. Using the Grails mail plugin. Posted by: Marc Palmer. On Sep 5, 2009 2 Comments. He consults for people like you.
