You mostly work with the recent version of each tile but it keeps versioning information for each file so you can get back to the previos version if necessary. They also use binary deltas which may reduce upload/download times. One big advantage of Dropbox is a very natural user interface which […]

- Answer by Sasha O for Understanding Java Swing screen buffer memory usage (reading materials would be welcome)I am not aware of any automatic screen buffering support in Swing.

There is another possible alternative: http://mojo.codehaus.org/buildnumber-maven-plugin/ (for Maven only).

.This Mojo creates a property file which is then available to the program.
