According to Infoworld, JBoss Application Server 4.0 is going to be released today. The full version of JBoss AS 4 is certified as compatible with the J2EE 1.4 platform. With a production release coming, it will be interesting to see how much use the AO functionality gets from the community.
Whenever I am on a panel, someone tends to ask What feature would you add, or take away, from Java?. One of the features that I would love to have is true closures. C# 2 has gotten pretty close with their anonymous delegates, and I think Java can take it from there. What feature would you like to see?
There has been no limit on the talk of best practices with Struts. This latest article discusses working with dynamic fields, error categorization, validation, security, prepopulation, and many more best practices.
At the risk of kicking off yet another dull J2EE vs. .NET flame war I was interested to see Betfair plumping for J2EE and using Jboss and Tangosol Coherence. Betfair moved from a .NET platform, over to a new product running on J2EE.
Gavin King posted on another thread, pondering whether many people have used, and are using, distributed transactions in real applications. This is a good question, so I thought, why not ask the community? So, how many of you have used, are using, or would use if it worked.... XA?
The Spring guys often talk about when ORM can be overkill, and when simpler frameworks like iBATIS can come into play. Gavin King discusses how Hibernate itself can be used as a JDBC framework.
The Spring Framework is a very popular open source, pragmatic Java framework. Now there is a company behind the technology, as springframework.com has been announced. The founding members include Rod Johnson, Juergen Hoeller, and Bruce Tate. The group will be offering a variety of services around the technology.
Vic Cekvenich thinks that the promise of JSF will come to fruition; however, it won't come from JSF, but rather from JDesktop Network Components (JNDC). This article builds the case, and gives examples of using RIAs in your solutions.
Matt Raible has posted his thoughts on the current status of JSF and also provides some interesting comparisons with the other frameworks that he has been using as part of his Spring Live and AppFuse work.
The proposed EJB 3.0 specification defines a new syntax to simplify development but fails to address fundamental flaws in the model. Ganesh Prasad and Rajat Taneja believe they have a better solution, and have documented their model.
Gavin King has predicted that the EJB 3 programming model will eventually be to Java development what JavaBeans is now. He provides a list of reasons as to why JavaBeans were so successful, and sees the EJB 3 component model as an enhancement to JavaBeans: JavaBeans with "extra" semantics, defined by the spec's general-purpose annotations.
Miguel de Icaza, the founder of the Mono project commented "J2EE is an academic crap". Debu Panda of Oracle has written against this flippant comment. He discusses the history of where we have gotten today, the problems that J2EE is trying to solve, and how we are all evolving.

Looks like today AJAX concept have several interpretations. We can distinguish different approaches of AJAX integration. Can they co-exist within the same application? Can we talk about layered AJAX integration?

Artima has published a short article describing the Design-Time API for JavaBeans, which was recently approved as JSR 273. This API promises to bring VB-like ease to Java development, but may face a cultural bias among Java developers who tend to think more in terms of class libraries than components.
