Front End Development or Client-Side Development is the practice of coding in technologies like HTML, CSS, and Javascript in a website. The practice involves converting Data into a Graphical Interface for a user to view and interact. Growth in Front-end development is excellent and there are plenteous opportunities available, especially because companies now want their customers to have a good experience while using their Web applications.

Writing your own logging framework is the perfect coding crime. If you can convince your manager to put it on the project plan, you are guaranteed to have success. At the end of each day, you will go home feeling happy and satisfied. It will feel like you are doing something creative. You will get the intellectual stimulation without the risk of failure. Even the Sun engineers fell into this trap. Prior to Java 4, we had a perfectly good logging framework in Log4J. However, instead of adopting this into the standard Java distribution, we ended up with java.util.logging. There are lots of Java logging frameworks available, even meta-logging frameworks like SLF4J and Jakarta Commons. These are supposed to abstract the logging frameworks so you can change the implementation without touching your code. http://www.javaspecialists.eu/archive/Issue177.html

The Simple Logging Facade for Java or (SLF4J) serves as a simple facade or abstraction for various logging frameworks, e.g. java.util.logging, log4j and logback, allowing the end user to plug in the desired logging framework at deployment time. Before you start using SLF4J, we highly recommend that you read the two-page SLF4J user manual. In case you wish to migrate your Java source files to SLF4J, consider our migrator tool which can migrate your project into SLF4J in minutes. In case an externally-maintained component you depend on uses a logging API other than SLF4J, such as commons logging, log4j or j.u.l, have a look at SLF4J's binary-support for legacy APIs.

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.

"Since 1994, the Java programming language evolved and became a valid tool to develop reliable and performant server applications as opposed to just applets and client applications. The major disadvantage of the Java platform is that still today the only portable way to start a Java application relies on a single point of entry: the public static void main(String[]) method. Having a single-point of entry is a valid solution for client applications, where interactively a user can command to the application to quit (which can terminate the Virtual Machine process at calling the System.exit(int) method), but in those cases where the application is not interactive (server applications) there is currently no portable way to notify the Virtual Machine of its imminent shutdown. A server application written in Java might have to perform several tasks before being able to shutdown the Virtual Machine process. For example in the case of a Servlet container, before the VM process is shut down, sessions might need to be serialized to disk, and web applications need to be destroyed. One common solution to this problem is to create (for example) a ServerSocket and wait for a particular message to be issued. When the message is received, all operations required to shut down the server applications are performed and at the end the System.exit method is called to terminate the Virtual Machine process. This method however, has several disadvantages and risks: In case of a system-wide shutdown, the Virtual Machine process may be shut down directly by the operating system without notifying the running server application. If an attacker finds out the shutdown message to send to the server and discovers a way to send this message, he can easily interrupt the server's operation, bypassing all the security restrictions implemented in the operating system. Most multi-user operating systems already have a way in which server applications are started and stopped. Under Unix based

AspectJ is an aspect-oriented extension created at PARC for the Java programming language. It is available in Eclipse Foundation open-source projects, both stand-alone and integrated into Eclipse. AspectJ has become the widely used de-facto standard for AOP by emphasizing simplicity and usability for end users. It uses Java-like syntax and has included IDE integrations for displaying crosscutting structure since its initial public release in 2001. In this article we will describe how we can use AspectJ to do the logging job for all methods parameters and methods return values in a Java application

Does it all make sense now? Do you know how to solve every problem? Probably not, but when it comes right down to it, using Java EE can be even simpler than using Spring, and take much less time. You just have to find the right guides and the right documentation (which is admittedly a severe sore-spot of Java EE; the documentation is still a work in progress, but is getting much better, save blogs like this one.) You have to turn to a vendor like JBoss, or IBM in order to get the use-case driven documentation you need, and they do have documentation, it's just a matter of finding it. Seam 3 in particular strives to give extensive user-documentation, hopefully making things much simpler to adopt, and easier to extend. The main purpose of this article was not to bash Spring, although I may have taken that tone on occasion just for contrast and a little bit of fun. Both Spring and Java EE are strongly engineered and have strong foundations in practical use, but if you want a clean programming experience right out of the box - use Java EE 6 on JBoss Application Server 6 - JBoss Tools - and Eclipse. I will say, though, that the feeling I've gotten from the Spring forums vs the Java EE forums, is that there are far many more people willing to help you work through Java EE issues, and more available developers of the frameworks themselves to actually help you than there are on the Spring side. The community for Java EE is much larger, and much more supportive (from my personal experience.) In the end, I did get my application migrated successfully, and despite these issues (from which I learned a great deal,) I am still happy with Java EE, and would not go back to Spring! But I do look forward to further enhancements from the JBoss Seam project, which continue to make developing for Java EE simpler and more fun. Don't believe me? Try it out. Find something wrong? Tell me. Want more? Let me know what you want to hear.

The Apache Software Foundation has resigned its seat on the Java SE/EE Executive Committee. Apache has served on the EC for the past 10 years, winning the JCP "Member of the Year" award 4 times, and recently was ratified for another term with support from 95% of the voting community. Further, the project communities of the ASF, home to Apache Tomcat, Ant, Xerces, Geronimo, Velocity and nearly a 100 mainstay java components have implemented countless JSRs and serve on and contribute to many of the JCPs technical expert groups. We'd like to provide some explanation to the community as to why we're taking this significant step.
