This article describes how to publish JavaDoc API documentation for a Maven project built on Jenkins when that project is released. The JavaDoc API documentation is published using the same instance of Apache Tomcat 7 that Jenkins runs on. Motivation I wanted to, using the simplest way possible, publish JavaDoc API documentation for releases of… Read More »
I recently attended a very good talk by Angelika Langer about new features expected in Java 8. One one of the things that I found most interesting were streams, which add features allowing for parallel processing and lazy evaluation of a stream of objects. I have, for some time, thought about processing large messages with… Read More »

In this process I encountered builds that failed for some mysterious reason that I weren’t able to determine from the console log of the build supplied by… Read More »
I had a specific problem I set out to solve, but the technique described in this article can be used to customize the behaviour of JAXP document builder factories that are used by code you cannot change by setting other features and properties on such document builder factories. Problem I first saw the problem with… Read More »
Today I stumbled upon a Java system property that, when set to one, cause JAXP to output information about which factory implementations is used to instantiate different kinds of factories and where the information is found that these decisions are based upon. The system property is set like this: In Eclipse, you add the above… Read More »
Problem When attempting to unit-test a Mule transformer that need access to session- or invocation-scoped message properties, I found the result to be an IllegalStateException that told me: Detected an attempt to set an invocation or session property, but a MuleEvent hasn’t been created using this message yet.
