There's a lot of info out there about its LGPL license and the legal stuff, but is it actually any good?
iText 2.1.7 has (to quote the sales guy at iText) a "few technical and also legal problems".
I know he's a sales guy and he probably wanted to put me off so that I'd buy a commercial license (and I definitely don't blame him for doing so, don't get me wrong), but can anyone actually give me an example of a popular, well-rated app out there that uses DroidText?
Is DroidText, actually any good?
I don't have enough cred to leave comments. This might not be what you are looking for, but I work for a (non-profit) firm that is developing a tablet application that will be used by law enforcement. We are using DroidText to convert onscreen forms and activities to a pdf. While it isn't going to be an app for public use, the reaction from the police has been very positive so far.
So yes, DroidText is "good"

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.

Greetings!
I was wondering if it's possible to make music-based games in Java? I've played games like Beat Hazzard and Audiosurf and stuff like that and I was considering making one like that - that dynamically loads songs the user selects and finds pieces of information (like bass notes) and does something in return.
I don't even know where to start, but I have found ways to play music (through certain classes others provide or the Java Sound API). Anybody ever done anything like this before? Any help is appreciated.
Of course it is. I think the term you should be Googling for is Java Signal Processing and analysis.
There is a related SO post on this as well as numerous other Java libraries and source examples (see the Google search results from above.) Here is a page with applets that perform a variety of signal analysis. Might not be exactly what you need but should be a start. And MARF, from the SO post mentioned above, looks VERY promising!

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.
