Multiple Operating Systems using VirtualBox

Posted by admin | Uncategorized | Saturday 6 June 2009 5:42 am

Some time ago if you waned to install an additional operating system for testing or using, you had to repartition your hard drive, reconfiguring you boot loader or creating one, carefully choosing all kinds of stuff and some times even loosing the basic working operating system.

Well all of this are unnecessarily now because now systems emulators like vmware and virtualbox exists ant this means that you can run stright from you running oeprating system, a different system (PC) with his own BIOS, and hardware ( more software that hardware actually :) ), and installing any operating system you wish as simple as that.

If you want to find out more on this it’s better to test it yourself, because this software, can be downloaded quickly, and also the installation of the operating system it seems to be a lot faster than on a normal PC.

A very important thing, VirtualBOX it’s free and on a first look better that vmware which isn’t free at all. So I recommend you VirtualBOX

If you what a fast solution for installing Apache with php and mysql XAMPP is one of the best choices. You can install it under windows, linux and even MAC OS X, with small effort for fast use.

This is update often using the latest stable versions of each service in the package.

For example XAMPP 1.7.1 has the following versions:

  • PHP 5.2.9

Creating Flex Applications with Microsoft Visual Studio

Posted by admin | Uncategorized | Thursday 4 June 2009 5:07 am

As a Flex developer I tried several IDE’s for developing certain projects in a faster and easier way. I’ve tried some open source/free IDE’s but none of them was as good as Flex Builder because they didn’t had the Design feature for dialogs and components. The main reason is the memory and the process that Eclipse environment ( on which Flex Builder is based  ) occupies is too much.

Recently after a common google search I’ve encountered a Microsoft Visual Studio plugin that gives you the posibility to develop Flex applications and also with a design posibility like Flex Builder. Under the name of  “Amethyst” by SapphireSteel software under the current development state  of beta 5, this plugin can be downloaded from here

This seems to work a lot faster, and the good part is that it has the debugging feature from Visual Studio which is more friendly that the one from Flex Builder or so it seems to me.

Click here for details on installing and using this plugin.

Here you have some screenshots on this
