Inspect code with FindBugs

Today I'd like to introduce an Open Source software we use for three years at least to perform code review and identify potential bugs in our Java code. Its name is FindBugs. It works performing static analysis of the Java bytecode. It covers different categories of bugs, including those related to the web applications security (this was the main reason we started to use it, but later we begun to use it for different categories of bugs). The software is distributed as a standalone GUI application or as plug-in available for the most famous IDEs. In this post I will refer to the plugin for Eclipse Indigo. You can download FindBugs from the the official website http://findbugs.sourceforge.net/ If you plan to use FindBugs as Eclipse plug-in you don’t need to download and install the standalone application too. The plug-in requires the Eclipse release 3.3 or later and the JDK release 1.5 or later. The installation of the plug-in is very simple: In Eclipse, click on Help

Last article about Axon framework

It's on line now the May issue of Mokabyte magazine ( www.mokabyte.it ). It contains the last article ( http://tinyurl.com/o8kyygq ) of the series  wrote by me about the Axon framework ( http://www.axonframework.org/ ), a Java implementation of the CQRS (Command Query Responsibility Segregation) pattern. The column on the right of the article shows you the links to read my previous articles about Axon and CQRS. The article is in Italian language only, but please feel free to ask me any kind of info in English about it. I'd like to know also your impressions about CQRS or Axon if you already had applied them to any of your projects.
