Tushar Joshi

Selected as Member of NetBeans Dream Team

 

Dear all,

I am very happy to inform you that I am selected as Member of NetBeans Dream Team. It is an honor to be a member of NetBeans Dream Team and I am thankful of NetBeans Dream Team and NetBeans Team for considering me and my efforts towards Java and NetBeans, feeling honored since there are around only 50 people selected till now from all over the world and I am the 3rd Indian to be a member of NetBeans Dream Team after Mr, Tushar Joshi (Nagpur, India) and Mr. Rajmahendra Hegde (Chennai and Hyderabad, India).

11th Feb. 2015 was a great day for me, we had festival (Birth Anniversary) of Saint Gajanan Maharaj (Shegaon, Maharashtra, India) and same day only I have received mail with subject as Invitation to join NetBeans Dream Team!. This means all my faith in our saint and dreams have come true.

I am feeling more responsible now and I understand my responsibilities and will work as per guidelines of veteran members of NetBeans Dream Team. I am already working with a new JUG near Pune (Maharashtra, India) that is JUG Nashik (Maharashtra, India)  and will be there for few days with them from 13th Feb 2015. I will be working with 3 JUGs for now that is JUG Nagpur, JUG Pune and JUG Nashik.

For this, I would love to give credit to my family and specially to my Guide cum Mentor, Mr. Tushar Joshi. They have always encouraged me a lot even when many times I could not give them enough time due to hectic schedule of training session all over India. Also I would love to say thanks to my little son for coming in our life as a good luck charm only few days back. My wife was in also worried whether I will be there or not at the time of labor but never complained and said you just do your job, I will take care of everything.

Report : NetCAT Hackathon

Hi All,

 

We had our first Hackathon in the form of NetCAT Hackathon today from 12 noon to 5 pm.

 

It is always great to work for NetBeans as a Community Contributor for NetCAT. But this time it was an awesome experience for me too for doing Test Case reviews for NetCAT and also to educate some new comers about NetCAT and other details related to the same during the NetCAT Hackathon. Some of my students joined NetCAT first time and they were not knowing anything about NetCAT rather than I used to tell them during their regular training sessions, but now they know everything about NetCAT and hope they will ask other to join it and help us to educate others about the same.

 

Here are some glimpse of NetCAT Hackathon :

Goals

Learn about the NetBeans Platform and become experienced enough to be able to write a module, set of modules, and applications based on the NetBeans Platform. Also, to be able to locate pieces of code responsible for certain behaviour, change it and generate a patch that could be integrated back into official NetBeans.org source tree.

The course assumes the student wants to create distributed Swing applications, while having no knowledge of the NetBeans Platform or its idioms at all. The course is primarily focused on lectures accompanied by demos, with a workshop at the end of each day. At the end of the course, the student will have gained a global overview of the main NetBeans APIs, will have seen them in action, and will have used some of the main ones themselves in the workshops.

My Experience

Hey all,

Couple of months ago with the initiative of Tushar Sir, we started the NetBeans User Group, Nagpur (NUGNagpur). This group is of people passionate about NetBeans IDE or NetBeans Platform and who are located geographically in Nagpur, Maharashtra, India, and is the main collaboration tool for the members. Our focus is to share personal experiences, tricks, tips and learning with each other and contributing the community as and when possible, to do so we have conducted some meetings personally & via Skype too. NUG Nagpur also adds some nice friends me my life & a great guide in form of Tushar Sir.

There are many people who use NetBeans but they don’t know about the NetBeans Platform even I was using NetBeans but was unaware of it. Now after this 2Day training conducted by Geertjan Wielenga, Principal Product Manager, Oracle Inc. The NUGNagpur & I am thankful to Geertjan for his valuable time & for conducting the training in weekend, in India if someone does so people would have started scolding him/her that what are you doing?, seeing nobody is there, talking through microphone & all…. And for that we really appreciate Geertjan a lot for his kind efforts.

I’ll appeal to all who are using NetBeans as an IDE for Java, Android, C, C++, PHP, Groovy, Ruby on Rails, etc. development and are located in Nagpur, come forward & join NUGNagpur as soon as possible if and only if they are passionate about NetBeans IDE & eager to learn a lot. Here you guys can learn a lot, you will meet the people who are always ready to answer your problems.

The training was awesome, there were 17 people participated from NUGNagpur India, 10 people from Togo and 1 from Canada and with Geertjan in Amsterdam. The training was successfully carried out via Skype & WebEx with the LCD projectors on the big screen and we have connected Skype voice to Polycom audio device to broadcast it to all. The workshops conducted in between & at the end of each day was also very useful in learn a lot about NetBeans Platform, also added some experience to all the participants & helped a lot to clear their doubt if any.

After this training now I am “NetBeans Platform Certified Associate”. And I feel proud to be and call myself as NetBeans Platform Certified Associate. I think I have come one step close to my dream to work with the people of Sun Microsystems (now Oracle) so that I can learn a lot from their experiences & could be able to contribute some nice & useful things to world.

Day 1

On the very first day of training i.e. Day 1, we started from scratch since no one of us was aware of NetBeans Platform & the RCP (Rich Client Platform) Applications. Geertjan introduced it very nicely to all of us so that there were no doubt at all. Now after the training I am very happy that I don’t need to code that all things like Toolbar, Editor window, Properties window, Output window, Explorer window, Tree & tables, widgets, etc. since NetBeans Platform has already built it for us & we just need to use it in a proper way & don’t need to worry about the look & feel for my desktop applications because NetBeans Platform will add stunning looks to the application & great functionality too. It will also save a huge amount of development time.

We learned about the Modularity & their Plug-ability so as to make a good project. We can develop a single module which could fit in the old one to enhance the look & feel or the functionality of the old one. Dependency management, decoupling, refactoring of code, separation of concerns, etc. was also covered nicely.

The most interesting thing for me on Day 1 was Lookup API, Central Registry and RCP itself. Now I can develop Rich applications like NetBeans & plug-in for NetBeans.

The workshop was great!.

Day 2

On the second day i.e. Day 2, we started with a quick review of Day 1 consisting of a small discussion with Geertjan with a round of question-answers.

Moving on to further, we started with the Node API & learned all the other NetBeans Platform APIs. Following are the Top 10 NetBeans APIs:

  • Module System API,
  • Lookup API,
  • Window System API,
  • System FileSystem API,
  • Node API,
  • Explorer API & Property Sheet API,
  • Palette API,
  • Visual Library API,
  • Actions API,  etc.

With the help of all these and no. of rest APIs of NetBeans we can create stunning applications with great functionality like widgets, drag & drop, custom components, tree structure, table structure, nice toolbars, dockable – undockable windows, plug-in, etc.

We also learn porting of applications to NetBeans Platform, creating zip distribution, creating installer, creating “.nbm” file, plug-in center, etc.

At the end of the day we all were very happy. I really learned & enjoyed a lot. It was great & I am proud to be called as “NetBeans Platform Certified Associate”.

Now we are looking forward to develop RCP application using NetBeans Platform as soon as possible & to develop the open source projects under NUG Nagpur & the kind guidance of Geertjan & Tushar Sir.
