I'm talking about PMD source code analyzer.
Does it mean something?
Is it an acronym?
Or it just means nothing?
Sorry for this trivial question, I can't find the answer anywhere.
Apparently, it doesn't mean anything.
From that link:
"We've been trying to find the meaning of the letters PMD - because frankly, we don't really know. We just think the letters sound good together."
Straight from wikipedia
While PMD does not officially stand for anything, it has several unofficial names, the most appropriate probably being Programming Mistake Detector.

There is an "i" icon in one of my xml file :
In the Eclipse doc, I found that it is an "Information" Icon
http://help.eclipse.org/neon/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.jdt.doc.user/reference/ref-icons.htm
But what kind of information it means? How is my "primeExceptionnelle" giving me information? When I move my mouse on it, nothing appears: no tooltip, neither the underlined name "primeExceptionnelle"
Well, with all my research, it seems that this is just an indication that my code could be refactored.
From the Eclipse (and Spring Tool Suit) documentation http://help.eclipse.org/neon/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.jdt.doc.user/reference/ref-icons.htm :
Information -
A problem described as Information will not affect the refactoring in any way, nor will it negatively affect the code in the workbench. You can most likely ignore this type of problem.
And it effectively could be refactored using the "p" suffix instead of :
xmlns:p="http://www.springframework.org/schema/p"
and then using it like this :
My only remaining problem is that this Information Icon doesn't appear on the Problems View of Eclipse/STS.

In fall 2013 Spring has launched its new Website (spring.io) and announced its new platform "Spring IO". But what does this name/abbreviation "IO" mean?
I am NOT asking for any (technical) description of what Spring IO is, I am only interested in the name.
This question is not about the name of the website, it is about the name of the platform! - It think names are important for programming, and good names help to understand programs faster (Clean code), so I hope this name is not only a marketing gag
its Integration Objects as given in the link http://java.dzone.com/articles/spring-and-c24-io-accelerating

It might sound stupid, but i decided to take the challenge to program the Translation Algorithm with help of OOP NetBeans - Java, having only basic knowledge of Java, and the theory only in the Translation Algorithm (Compiler).
I am here to ask for your assistance, if somehow any of you did something like Translation from one programming language into another I happy if you could provide me with the links to the information you've used or set me on to the right direction so I could start correctly!
Thank you in Advance

Theory of compilation is a huge field of research, that among others include formal languages, graph theory, low level optimizations and more.
A good place to start learning about it is the Dragon Book .
If you are using java, a useful tool that helps you do most of the front-end tasks of a compiler is JavaCC

I am working with Java at my current day job. When I learned programming, I learned C++, but haven't touched it (or had to) since 2002. I don't even remember how to do the simplest of things.
Lately, my work has been expressing a need for a C++ application built for windows.
I am looking for books/articles/blog-posts (resources) that:
teach the basics of C++?
for n00bz?
for someone who's already been programming?
teach the differences between C++ and Java?
teach the basics of the Visual .* platform?
teach the specificities of building with Visual Studio?
Why ask the question?
This question was brought on by the fact that my first program is 5 lines of C++ (sourced from documentation with a dependency on a DLL.) It's quite intimidating to figure out how to build it in the way I'd like to.
That being said, there are many elements in the snippet that I don't understand.
I definitely see that the original need is small, but I'd like to get some background on the platform/subject before I embark on even some simpler development (like the snippet) in the future.
Thanks in advance.

What does Oracle's lawsuit against Google mean to Android developers? I know this is not a programming related question, but I can't think of another forum where I can ask this.
Technically speaking Oracle is going out on a limb with this one. Android isn't actually Java, it's a Java -> Dalvik converter. No one has won a lawsuit against converters, although no one to my knowledge has tried. You'd be best to follow things on TechCrunch or some other nearly technologically related press-like site.
It doesn't mean much. If Oracle wins, Google will pay damages and/or license the patents in question. Android isn't going to stop shipping.
