Commenting Java code the WebSphere way
One of the first things a developer learns about Java is how to do comments. In Java, there are three basic types of comments: single line comments, multi-line comments and Javadoc comments.

Well, WebSphere Studio can make commenting your code ever so much easier for you, and making it a little easier can go a long way toward improving your productivity and the readability of your code. [WebSpherePower Magazine, December 2003]

Who's on your ACL?
What we're about to show you almost got Contributing Editor Dan Velasco killed.

We'd show you the original report he created, but then we'd have to kill you. Instead, in part because it's hard to grow a magazine when you kill off its readers, Dan's prepared some mock-up reports and very real scripts that show you all the power of his ACL analysis tool without risking life and limb. [DominoPower Magazine, March 1999]
