ActionScript Wiki

I started an ActionScript Wiki at http://wiki.joa-ebert.com/ with most of the articles from my old optimizations paper and some new stuff.

See it as a knowledge base for ActionScript optimization techniques, data structures and code snippets. I would appreciate any feedback and suggestions for articles in those or other categories.

Windows Eclipse Configuration For FDT

After a lot of trouble with the Eclipse IDE I switched my JVM last night to JRockit and everything seems to be much faster now. If you have a Windows machine and an Intel CPU I can only suggest you to try the same.

I do not know if all settings are completly correct but after trying lots of different configurations this seems the be the best for me. You can find those settings in the eclipse.ini which is located in your Eclipse installation directory.


-vm PATH_TO_JROCKIT_INSTALLATION\bin\javaw.exe
-vmargs
-Xms1024M
-Xmx1024M
-XX:PermSize=256M
-XX:MaxPermSize=512M
-XX:+UseParallelGC

Domain Problems Fixed

I had a couple of problems with my old domain http://www.je2050.de because it was for about two to three weeks in the void.

Therefore I could not receive any e-mails going to that domain and a lot of links in the blog were broken. Everything should be fixed now and all the old links should work again. I am also able to answer my mails now. Unfortunately everything I received during the last weeks is completly lost.

Sorry for any inconvenience caused.
