JDBC 4.0 Enhancements in Java SE 6 - 0 views

  • In JDBC 4.0, we no longer need to explicitly load JDBC drivers using Class.forName(). When the method getConnection is called, the DriverManager will attempt to locate a suitable driver from among the JDBC drivers that were loaded at initialization and those loaded explicitly using the same class loader as the current application.
  • Auto-loading of JDBC driver class
  • Service Provider mechanism (SPM).
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • META-INF/services directory.

    JDBC 4.0 Enhancements in Java SE 6 Java Platform, Standard Edition (Java SE) version 6 (code name Mustang), is currently in its second beta release and is scheduled to be delivered in October of this year. Java SE 6 includes several enhancements to the Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) API. These enhancements will be released as JDBC version 4.0. The main objectives of the new JDBC features are to provide a simpler design and better developer experience. This article provides an overview of the JDBC 4.0 enhancements and what benefits they offer to enterprise Java developers. We will explore the new JDBC features with the help of a sample loan processing application using Apache Derby as the back-end database.

meta beta: EMF and RAP and Virgo, oh my.. - 0 views

    "what if I just dropped the EMF bundles into the same place, modified the demo .plan file to include them, and.. No way that could possibly work, right? Not only did it work, but it actually worked before I thought it would. I was ready for endless rounds of editing, rebuilding, restarting, reloading, re.. But instead, I saved the changes to the .plan file and Equinox/Virgo automagically hot-loaded them and ran through the dependencies there and then. I cleaned a couple of things up, and then I navigated to the URL, and there it was. Seriously, I haven't been that impressed by a technology that "just worked" since the first time I built an EMF model and editor. I'll say it: The Virgo/RAP/EMF stack is going to be -- already is -- a kick-ass combination. Light-weight development, light-weight deployment, industrial strength, web-based MDSD."
