Java Application Process Name in Mac OS X

2007-08-22 09:52 Tagged

I have found that several of my Java applications have same process name on Mac OS X. JavaApplicationStub utility is usually used for launching java applications on mac os and as the result there are several processes named 'JavaApplicationStub' in Activity Monitor shown.

Java application menu in system tray

2007-08-13 15:50 Tagged

I got the task to implement system tray menu for java desktop application. After some research I found several ways to finish my task:

java 6
java desktop components integraion library (jdic)
eclipse swt

I have only the one biggest requirement for new application. It should support all most popular operating systems (win, linux and mac os). Java 6 has no support on mac os x. For some reason I was thinking that Jdic has no support on Mac OS X too (now I know that I was wrong). Starting from 3.3 version, SWT started supporting all main operation systems. And as the result SWT became my one and only choice.

But new project creation command not very user friendly since it required several parameters that you need to remember (‘-DarchetypeGroupId’ or ‘-DgroupId’). As solution you can make small help script and put it into your projects folder.

As quick solution I make small shell script (new_project.sh) that can be used for fast start:
