import gpg-keys from the cmdline
1. Februar 2008
like linux cmdline:
if you are looking for my name for example, enter the following:
gpg --search-keys knoller
This will look for my key, offer you a choice of all ‘knoller’-keys and
will import them automatically to your keychain.
Usefull in conjuction with mail-security,
which btw, apple has no support. shame on apple.
Maven, useful to learn?
1. Februar 2008
I recently wanted to learn how to use maven, because I heard it is widely used and well supported, and because it was ment to be good.
Just after printing out the book and getting into the first example projects, there are blog entries popping up to
discuss maven. Some say it is bad/worse/neverever, some
not. Here are some links to the articles.
- maven and and, eternal debate
- workarounds for 5 maven design issues
- maven: won’t get fooled again
- Don Brown makes maven not suck
If you have any experience with maven (2.0), please leave a comment of what you think….
Leopard, force backup for time machine
29. Januar 2008
Time Machine is a good concept for backups, but when I connect my external harddrive I usually have to wait for 10-45minutes before the backup starts. There are 2 ways to force a backup instantly
- If you still have your time machine icon in the doc, you can ctrl-click it and select ‘backup now’
- If you don’t, as I have because I like to have my dock as simple as possible, you can do it on the cmd-line. Yes cmd-line, hurray, linux forever, ahemm… sorry, short outburst…
here is the command:
/System/Library/CoreServices/backupd.bundle/Contents/Resources/backupd-helper
IntelliJ IDEA, scratches on the surface
27. Januar 2008
Finally, after hours, days of using it I was able to crash my IDE. I had an idea for a project and I wanted to us Maven as project-build tool, which was already integrated in IntelliJ. After an upgrade for the plugins for maven from version 1.x to 2.0.8 the IDE decided not to start again. The startup error blamed the Ant-Plugin and asked to remove it.
After some consideration I did so, although I planned to fix it because I want to use Ant in my projects. After that the IDE wanted me to remove the Spring-Plugin! I feared if this would go any longer I soon will run out of plugins.
Since I wanted to use Spring and Ant, and they were already well integrated, I started to look for other solutions. The IntelliJ-Forum and my friend google were not much of help. After some try and error I found out, that you cannot have maven-plugins for version 1.xx and 2.xx at the same time.
Bottom Line: Although IntelliJ is for me still the best IDE so far, it has it’s drawbacks and surely some scratches on it’s shiny surface…
