Today I took a first glance at Scala at the Paris JUG monthly meeting. Scala is a programming language which runs on the Java Virtual Machine.
I have not compiled a single line of code in Scala yet but I saw enough code to get a decent idea of it.
When you think Scala, think about the functional programming paradigme. A function can be a value.
The first speaker, Sader Drobi, showed us a few examples of code to illustrate the advantages of passing a function as a parameter.

Autocomplete with jQuery, Struts 2, EJB 3 and JPQL
If you are looking for a way to fill a field and perform a live search, in an asynchronous way, look no further.
jQuery autocompleter is a jQuery plugin that performs real-time autocompletion of a text-field.
You need jQuery and the jQuery plugin autocomplete of course.
