Profiling Java @ 2019

A good profiler can really help you in your work while coding Java (I assume while coding any coding language but I am referring to Java here) It can find memory leaks (Which object and how many of it takes the most of your limited memory?), CPU bottlenecks and other surprising data like the time consumed by each network call / DB query etc. Thus it is not so surprising to find many different java profilers around. I will try to map here the Java profiling tools lying around My short list of requirements will include the following: Profiler Requirements Constantly updated profiler (how a profiler built to profile Java6 will behave with Java11?) Clear GUI - As I will want to dive into the profiling data - it will be much simpler using UI Free (With a big advantage to the open sourced ones) (Optional) Remote profiling List of Profilers Dead Profilers (At least 5 years without an update) JIP - Java Interactive Profiler  - Last update 2010 Profiler4J - Last U...

Ant Explorer graphical Ant build tool

Every serious java developer needs to create or edit some ant building script. Eclipse offers nice ant handling features which make the task much easier, eclipse's plugin (which is embeded into eclipse since version 3.1 or so) understands the ant scripting language thus enables not only syntax coloring but also nice mouse hovering which reveals values of properties, variable names which enables finding the source of each variable and also some nice debugging features. But, there is one field in which eclipse's ant handling lacks perfection, its in viewing the whole build file in one gaze graphically feature, that feature isn't supported by eclipse. Luckily enough, it is supported by YWorks, which created a nice and free util which loads an ant script file and shows it in a beautiful and so very useful way. I think that this util (which was released as a standalone as well as an eclipse and idea) is a must for any serious java developer. Unluckily, YWorks have remo...

How to Set Up a MAME Gaming System on Raspberry Pi 3B+ with Wireless Controllers

 If you're like me, the nostalgia of arcade games hits hard, and nothing beats the magic of building your own retro gaming console. I decided to turn my Raspberry Pi 3B+ into a MAME (Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator) setup to bring back those classic arcade experiences. Here's a step-by-step breakdown of my journey, including the choices I made along the way. Step 1: Choosing the Operating System The first crucial decision was selecting the right OS for the Raspberry Pi 3B+. There are several solid options available, each tailored for retro gaming: RetroPie : Highly popular and packed with features, RetroPie supports numerous emulators, including MAME. It's perfect if you're also interested in other classic consoles. Batocera : Known for its ease of use, Batocera is great if you want a simple setup with minimal configuration. It comes ready for MAME gaming right out of the box. Recalbox : Another option, similar to Batocera, that offers a plug-and-play experience. It pr...
