Unit testing with jdeveloper 10g - junit

I want to use JUnit or similiar TDD frameworks and plugins at my work environment. But where I work, migrating to jdeveloper 11g or eclipse is not considerable in a near future.
We are using jdeveloper 10g for development and I can't find any resources about tutoring TDD on Jdeveloper 10g. Any suggestions?

Installing DotNetNuke 7 with MySQL and in .Net 3.0 environment?

I just registered a hosting service from www.amhosting.com and they said that the Server support MySQL and .Net 3.0 only while the site I am installing is DNN 7 which is running with MSSQL and .Net 4.0.
So what is the solution for this case?
Could I run DNN 7 in .net 3.0 environment?
or should I downgrade the DNN to lower version that is able to run in .net 3.0?
How to configure the DNN site to run with MySQL?
Thanks a lot.
Cheers,
Timmy
I think you should change your hosting solution.
From what I know DNN7 only works with .NET 4.0 / 4.5
MySql - god forbid, you're in a world of pain. I have heard about attempts to make the DNN Core compatible with MySql... but it's only the Core, and any such projects would be outdated in a matter of months, as DNN does release quite often.
Talking about third party modules, which sooner or later you'll be bound to download from codeplex or buy from Dnn store - forget about. no dnn developer out there provides scripts for mysql.
Good luck!
As Greg states, you won't have an easy time getting DNN working in 2.0 (there was no 3.0, but 3.5 exists) with MYSQL, and you will be limited based on the "provider" for MYSQL.
Go with another hosting company that does Windows Hosting with MSSQL options, there are plenty of them out there for low cost, you'll save a lot more money changing hosting, than you will trying to get mysql working with DNN, and you won't have any upgrade options available to you.

What benefits has Spring RCP (or another RCP framework worth mentioning) over Eclipse RCP?

In 2005 I built some smaller applications using eclipse rcp and I found this framework very handy. Now I am back at rich client development and need to decide in staying with eclipse rcp or switch to something more state of the art(?). Because I also had contact to spring core in the past, I am very interested in using spring rcp as an alternative.
Has somebody already worked with both (Eclipse and Spring RCP or another RCP framework worth mentioning) and can objectively compare these?
Thanks
havenAs for Spring RCP, the latest release seems to be from 2009. So unless I am missing a migration to a bigger project, I'd consider it dead.
My experience with Netbeans is about three years old. I am using Eclispe RCP for the most part now. In my opinion Maven Integration with Netbeans worked easier than with Eclipse. Main difference is the the usage of Swing in Netbeans vs. SWT in Eclipse. But there is a SO question about that already: Netbeans RCP vs Eclipse RCP
edit: looks like Valkyrie is based on the old Spring RCP. But I haven't used that technology, yet. http://cmadsen.github.io/Valkyrie-RCP/

JRuby Community Support

We are exercising various technology or framework options to develop our new portal or web-application on elearning. So the favourites on the list are (not in any specific order)
1. Rails
2. J2EE
3. JRuby
So wanted inputs on the JRuby community support if we get to choose JRuby framework. Also want to know JRuby advantages. I have gone through some of the coolest advantage of JRuby, still want to konw if I missed something
1. Threading => Scalabity
2. Performance 2.5 times faster
3. Usage of both what java and ruby got to offer
4. Unicode support of Java etc etc.
It seems you're comparing a web development framework (Rails) with a enterprise development and deployment platform (J2EE) and a language implementation (JRuby).
If you develop a rails app and deploy it using warbler & glassfish then you'll be using all three things!
Perhaps rephrase?

Visual Studio and MySQL

I have been using Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition. Originally, I made a website with a MySQL back-end. Then I discovered the .Net web authentication, and moved to MS Access as I could, with some modification, make the web authentication work (but not all the features). For a future release of my site, I moved to MS SQL as it supported all of the features of the .Net web authentication. However, my host does not support MS SQL, my host supports MS Access and MySQL.
If I get Visual Studio 2008 Standard, with it have better integration with MySQL, to the point that all features of web authentication and using the development environment to make changes to the database are supported? Are there thrid-party tools or modifications that I can make to get things to that level of integration?
Or, do I have to move to a host that supports MS SQL?
We run a .NET environment here but using MySQL as our backend (though our software is applications, not web apps).
The MySql Net Connector is basically the MySQL version of the System.Data namespace in .NET (with nearly identical functionality/naming except for the MySql prefixes). So, as far as I have seen while working with it, anything that you can do via those namespaces, you can do via the connector.
As for IDE integration, I don't know. I use MySql Administrator and SQLYog to manage/work with the db.
You could try MySQL's .NET connector, though it's only a development version

Any SQL Server 2008 Database Change Management (MIgrations) Tools Available?

We were running Tarantino in a Nant build script but we're getting some new hardware and using the opportunity to upgrade to SQL Server 2008. Unfortunately Tarantino won't work with SQL 2K8 so I'm looking for an alternative.
Any ideas?
Migrator.net is the tool I use with SQL 2008. It also has nant script capability. I suggest using the trunk version, rather than the 0.7 release as it's had some good, as yet unreleased changes.
This roundup has other options. And there are few other similar questions here.
There are quite a few really good tools - some require adoption of a database change management process (like DBGhost), while others are less restrictive, but require more work (and efforts) on your side, e.g. Red-Gate's SQL Packager, which allows you to package your database creation and change scripts into .NET projects and/or stand-alone EXE files.
I believe Tarantino has been fixed now to work with SQL2008 as of March 2009
http://code.google.com/p/tarantino/source/list
Try the latest version of Tarantino from SVN, it works with SQL Server 2008.
Unfortunately, they have an outdated release published in Downloads section.
