This is the first "cloud based" product from Teppefall. More information will come over the next couple of months. It runs on Google AppEngine and is standard J2EE plus a few Google extensions. JavaMail, Twitter4J and XMPP works great.

This is probably obvious to many people now, but back when I wrote this I did not realize the truth. The reason Apple wants Flash off the iPad is because Apple wants the touch powered mobile advertising marked all for themselves. Apple wants to own interactive advertising on the iPhone, iPod and iPad.

Supporting 64bit is not very important when most of your code is in Java. But Teppefall does have around 300kb of C++ that needs to be ported. And the process is something like this.

• Install crazy big Windows SDK and Visual Studio on Windows 7.


• Realize that the Windows documentation is wrong when it comes to "vcvarsall.bat amd64".


• Dig around for a while.


• Find the correct BAT based configuration files and drag them into the application menu.


• Create custom makefiles.


• Scratch your head as Microsoft uses the suffix "32" in paths and library names everywhere.


• More mind numbingly boring rewriting of makefiles.


• Everything compiles, but Winsock related code is broken. Might be configuration. Might be worse.


• Realize that 64bit JRE writes a registry JVM value that points to a non-existent file. My fault ?


• But the code supports that, so just use TEPPEFALL_JVM variable.


• Success!

Some of the shell files in the Colorspace Linux distribution have incorrect Darkstar parameters. If it has “ds” in it you should probably remove the “.ds” part. I say probably because some of you might be using internal Darkstar parameters.

This is how you launch Colorspace on Linux.

java -Dteppefall.chrome=false -Dteppefall.override=true -Dswing.defaultlaf=com.teppefall.ds.look.TitaniumLAF -cp dsr.jar com.teppefall.colorspace.Colorspace
