As many of you may know, I’m a big fan of collaboration. I think we all have enough challenges building solutions for our customers, that we all benefit from any kind of collaboration. One such collaboration is the WAAI project. The WAAI acronym is formed by using the first letter of each participating company, being: Whitehorses, Amis, Approach Alliance and – of course – IT-eye.

The way we work is quite simple: every quarter we decide upon what questions we want to have answered. As you can imagine, SOA Suite 11g is quite prominent there. Each and every question has to be answered by delivering a workshop, white paper or presentation. These are collected and presented to an audience consisting of people from the participants. That way we not only build the knowledge, but spread it within our companies as well. And, all of us can use that material to train others, both inside and outside of the companies.

Usually the results are qualitatively really good. Some are extremely good. Such a one has just been posted on OTN, which is a nice feat anyway. You can find the article Jumpstart for OSB development here. We look forward to share a lot more results in the future.

Today I had some troubles to debug a Java class in Eclipse.
The debugger didn’t stop at my breakpoints.
To solve this issue I have editted my debug configuration in eclipse.

Put the following in your vm arguments to increase the initial and max heap size.

-Xms512M -Xmx512M

Other ideas are Welcome!!
