| New NetBeans Tutorial - Create Plugins Quickly & Easily |
| Edgar Silva's blog has a nice tutorial demonstrating how to create a NetBeans Module/ |
| Plugin. It is a quick demo that shows how easy it can be to create plugins using |
| NetBeans IDE 5.0. |

| The Internet Inside the IDE? |
| The creativity of NetBeans plug-in developers is astounding. In the last few weeks, |
| Ludo created a google toolbar, Rich integrated the JDIC native browser, and Masoud |
| came up with a fantastic Gmail checker. Want to see them all in action at the same |
| time? Hop over to this entry in Geertjan's blog: |

| Two Surprises When Debugging a NetBeans Plug-in |
| NetBeans contains an almost magical button called "Apply code changes". When |
| debugging, you can change the code of your application and reload it in the JVM. |
| Unless you change method signatures the debugging session continues and you can |
| debug the new code. What's cool is that it works for plug-ins as well: |

| Adventure Builder Application Module for NetBeans 5.0 |
| Adventure builder Application is is reference application that showcases web services |
| on the J2EE platform. I created new NetBeans module that includes this application. |
| You can go to this blog, download nbm and play with this application in NetBeans. |

| |
| Change in API of SimpleCancellableTask |
| There is a new WaitScreen component in Mobility Pack 5.0. You can use it for a task |
| that usually takes a lot of time (like connecting to server) and can either succeed |
| or fail. It used Runnable and it failed when a RuntimeException appreared. We |
| discovered that it doesn't fit to all users and so it was changed. More details at: |
