Binary Search
Wow that is ancient technology you might think – can more be written about that? Probably yes 🙂 So Binary Search has been around for as long as we’ve had sorted lists and the need to locate a specific element … Continue reading
Mutable
So you might wonder – “Mutable” – what is that all about? In general we prefer things to be Immutable. With immutability comes improved performance because we do not have to copy things around and the JIT can do some … Continue reading
Generating garbage…
At JCrete the last couple of years I’ve had the pleasure to be socializing with, among others, HFT people like Peter Lawrey and Martin Thompson. Those HFT dudes really makes me thinking when I’m implementing stuff. Thinking about how much … Continue reading
SafeEquals
I’m currently designing a user-authentication OAuth2 based service. I’m trying very hard never ever to reveal anything about users or passwords. Credential-lookup by userid is always done twice. If the user is not found a known dummy-user is looked up … Continue reading

Salesforce wsc hacking: getting rid of SessionTimedOutException
The SoapConnection java class sports a private static inner Exception, the SessionTimedOutException. This Exception is used internally only to quickly pass control from the parseDetail() method back to the send() method. This is bad practice, using an Exception to control … Continue reading
Salesforce wsc hacking: adding RequestTimedOutException
I have a number of situations where a RequestTimedOutException would be appropriate instead of just a ConnectionException when SoapConnection.send() encounters a SocketTimeoutException. This would ease retry implementations (related to timeouts) in that they would only have to consider a special … Continue reading
Salesforce wsc hacking: removing compiler warnings
I hate compiler warnings. These little yellow warning signs in Eclipse annoys me. I will go far to avoid compiler warnings in my own code. But what about generated code? Actually generated code is the worst as it does not … Continue reading
