Recap from GTUG Sthlm 4/3: Groovy, MIDI and some Closure...Leonard Axelsson | appengine, gaelyk, groovy, presentation
Did a presentation about Groovy on Google's App Engine at GTUG Stockholm last thursday. Had a great evening as expected.
Johan Burell (@Burre83) demoed his api and client implementation of a MIDI api for the android. The live "DJ on the Android" demo was cool even though it was impossible to actually see what he did as he used his own phone instead of the emulator during the demo.
Mikael Kindborg (@divineprog) presented on Google Closure, a new library for JS development which comes with what seems to be a really effective JavaScript Optimizer. There was even some more Android to be had when he demoed his JS Android Client that receives JavaScript over a socket and runs it on the device. Was kinda cool when a guy on the first row held up the Mikaels Android and we could se how the ui on the phone changed as Mikael recoded it live on his computer. I have a hard time seeing the practical applications for this but it's a cool demo non the less.
I focused on how to leverage Groovy on App Engine using Gaelyk as Grails IMHO isn't really worth the effort right now (on GAE). The environment I used was SpringSource Tool Suite (Groovy support) and the Google App Engine Plugin for Eclipse.
Presentation and examples: on Github as well as on GTUG Stockholm:s page

DSCT 2.0 Beta 3Fredrik Lindström
I’ve been meaning to get a final 2.0 version out the door for quite some time but work has taken up most of my free time and will continue to do so for a while longer. I hope you find this new version useful but please keep in mind that it is a beta version.
Special Thanks to Daniel Brad for some real world testing.

Sharepoint 2010, ADFS 2.0 and RolesFredrik Lindström
I’ve been tinkering quite a bit with Sharepoint 2010 and ADFS 2.0 lately and figured that this was worth sharing.
I followed the steps outlined in Travis Nielsen’s blog post to configure a federated identity provider in Sharepoint 2010 and configured ADFS 2.0 in my own way since our setup involves quite a few partner organizations. One thing that is not mentioned in the step by step guide is how to configure Sharepoint to accept role claims and assign access rights based on those claims.
The following Powershell snippet will do the trick
$issuer = Get-SPTrustedIdentityTokenIssuer
$issuer.ClaimTypes.Add(”http://schemas.microsoft.com/ws/2008/06/identity/claims/role“)
$map = New-SPClaimTypeMapping “http://schemas.microsoft.com/ws/2008/06/identity/claims/role” -IncomingClaimTypeDisplayName “Role” -SameAsIncoming
$issuer.AddClaimTypeInformation($map)
$issuer.Update()
After this the “Role” entry will show up in the people picker and you will be able to assign role claims to Sharepoint groups.

The Qanban InstallerMattias Mirhagen | development, grails, groovy, kanban, qanban
Since the development of the Qanban standalone, I started to take a look on taking it to it's next step; a Qanban Installer. Using IzPack I hacked an installation script, installing Qanban on your computer, with the posibility to add items to the start menu. Now all you have to do to run your local standalone Qanban is by going to Qanban in the start menu and click on Qanban->Qanban.
IzPack
As stated on the IzPack website, "IzPack is a one-stop solution for packaging, distributing and deploying applications. It's fully cross-platform and generates a single installer." It's fairly simple to use, and I can really recommend it.
Easier Qanban Install
When running the installer.jar a wizard will take you through the installation process. In this installation you will be able to set standard port and the amount of memory you wish to give to Qanban (port 8080 and 512mb memory is standard).
This will give you a menu item to launch Qanban and Uninstall Qanban. Now it will be even easier to install and run Qanban!
The Installer isn't complete, and therefore there is no release, but quite soon I hope for a first release.
