| If you're having trouble viewing this email, click here | | | | | This Week in Programming | This week's newsletter has a Java-centric theme to it, covering a number of related topics including FXML, connecting to MySQL using Java and the useful ToggleButton class. We also explain how memory allocation works in Delphi and even offer up a little something for Trekkies, showing you how to calculate stardates using PHP. Is there a particular topic that you'd like to see covered in a future version of the Programming Newsletter? If so, please let me know at browsers@aboutguide.com or on Twitter @browserexpert. | | | What is FXML? | FXML is described as a declarative XML-based scripting language for designing graphical user interfaces. What does that really mean? This article breaks down the meaning behind the description and shows how using FXML compares with using normal Java code. | | | Making the Connection to MySQL With Java | Although PHP and MySQL are a match made in heaven, sometimes an employer will need your MySQL expertise for a Java project. This quick tutorial teaches you how to connect to a MySQL database using Java. Java has libraries for connecting to and working with SQL databases built right into the standard Java SDK. | | | JavaFX: The ToggleButton Class | The ToggleButton class creates a control that looks similar to a regular button control. Normally, clicking a button on a graphical user interface is the starting point for an action (e.g., totaling a calculation by clicking on the equals sign on a calculator), whereas clicking the ToggleButton control indicates whether it has been selected or not. A selected ToggleButton looks like a depressed button. | | | Creating Progress Bars in Ruby | During long tasks from a command-line program, it's useful to display a progress bar. It's best not to leave the user scratching their head, wondering if the program is doing anything at all. There are multiple gems to implement progress bars, and even a way to hack up a simple spinner yourself. This article covers the ruby-progressbar gem. | | | | | | You are receiving this newsletter because you subscribed to the About Programming newsletter. If you wish to unsubscribe, please click here.
