Got the grid loading using WebWorkers to improve performance and interactivity (note the loading status in the bottom left of the grid). Also add playlists to nav tree on the left and began to style the grid a lot more like itunes.

A bit more progress on the itunes themed UI
New Subsonic Web UI!
So a quick post about a new Subsonic web UI I’ve been working on based on Itunes. Here’s a sneak peak at it:




Can’t boot into Windows XP after installing Ubuntu 10.4 (Lucid Lynx)
I upgraded to Lucid a few months ago but have not been able to use my windows partition since. Everytime I select it from Grub2 it just goes to a grub style prompt and I can’t do much. I finally found a solution here: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Boot_Sector which worked beautifully first time and I’m now back into XP!
JSON, JSR-303, Spring MVC and Ext.js
So I thought I’d post this in case others hit it. If you want to Spring MVC and POST JSON from an Ext JsonWriter to the server and have it populate your bean model and also get validated by JSR-303 validator then you’ll need to do a little work because it doesn’t work out of the box.
In the end I had to do some ugly classpath overriding to get it to work in the way I expected by writing my own modified version of Spring’s HandlerMethodInvoker. If you hit similar issues I suggest following this JIRA: http://jira.springframework.org/browse/SPR-7114 and feel free to use the attached code on the JIRA. It’s been working great for me now.
