ClipboardPlugin for PhoneGap

michel — Thu, 12 Aug 2010 16:43:11 +0000

I’ve written a new plugin for PhoneGap that enables clipboard access from within any JavaScript method in a PhoneGap-iPhone application. It’s my first piece of ObjectiveC-code, so the first version is very simple. It currently only supports setting clipboard text. Retrieving clipboard text will be added later.

The source code is available on GitHub: http://github.com/mweimerskirch/PhoneGap-Plugins/tree/master/ClipboardPlugin/iPhone/

Spellchecker.lu on TV

On June 15th I’ve been on TV (RTL Luxembourg to be precise) to present Spellchecker.lu, a project dedicated to creating a free and open source spelling checker for Luxembourgish. Spellchecker.lu has an “online checker” that runs inside any modern web browser as well as extensions for several open source applications like OpenOffice.org, Mozilla Firefox, Mozilla Thunderbird as well as several others.

You can see a recording of my appearance on the Luxembourgish show “20 vir” by visiting the following page (I appear at position 16:20): tele.rtl.lu/waatleeft/replay/v/20100615/127/19429/

First experiences with Adobe AIR 2

michel — Tue, 11 May 2010 21:19:06 +0000

I’ve recently deployed my first application written in Adobe AIR 2. It’s a nifty piece of software written specifically for the needs of a local bakery to help them manage daily orders, especially during holiday seasons.

Even though AIR 2 is still in Beta, I decided to use it for this project as it has a large range of new features I wanted to use, like the detection of mass storage devices, which I use for a “smart” backup function that automatically runs a database backup if an authorized USB memory stick is connected.

Printing with Adobe Air still sucks though, which is why I’ve used the native code integration to properly do this.
