Compiere - Beginning of the end!

Compiere Inc. has very strange understandings for free:
http://compiere.com/support/service-packs.php
Is there a charge for downloading these service packs?
The Service Pack is free of charge for customers on Standard and Extended level support subscriptions. For 2.6.3, the Service Pack is also available to customers on Self-service Support Subscriptions at no charge.


Acording to the post all is free, but user must have subscription...

We at ADempiere are totaly free as our migration and bug fixes which are more than 500 till now are free even for non subscribed users.

One big THANK YOU to Compiere Inc. for leaving the battle field OPEN SOURCE to ADempiere and other forks.

It is a bit insincere to let Compiere leave the battlefield for us.

I always hope that one day Compiere returns to its throne up the hilltop of the battlefield. We can always be its community as long as it accepts all our contributions and never closes up.

Compiere vs. ADempiere: Count of Partners

ADempiere project is one year old now, more precisely 13 months old. Before one year father project Compiere had around 60 partners, which was quite good number.

But it is very interesting observation that although income from partners increased Compiere Inc. decided to close source code access to Service Packs and push users to pay for it. It looks that only money from partners are not enough for the Inc.. Well it is again Compiere Inc. right to decide how much to charge for access to source code and how much not to charge, but users can see that functionality which ADempiere provides get bigger and bigger e

How to catch right mouse click in JTable

This is a quick post to show how developer can intercept Right mouse click in JTable. Name  of our JTable object is "jTable". We need to add MouseListener and catch "MousePressed" events. As the code shows correct mouse button is determined using "SwingUtilities" class, quite easy job. Tricky part is finding Row number and Column number and displaying Pop-up window at correct position.
