Apache CXF is an open source services framework. CXF helps you build and develop services using frontend programming APIs, like JAX-WS and JAX-RS. These services can speak a variety of protocols such as SOAP, XML/HTTP, RESTful HTTP, or CORBA and work over a variety of transports such as HTTP, JMS or JBI. CXF includes a broad feature set, but it is primarily focused on the following areas: Web Services Standards Support: CXF supports a variety of web service standards including SOAP, the WS-I Basic Profile, WSDL, WS-Addressing, WS-Policy, WS-ReliableMessaging, WS-Security, WS-SecurityPolicy, WS-SecureConverstation, and WS-Trust (partial). Frontends: CXF supports a variety of "frontend" programming models. CXF implements the JAX-WS APIs (TCK compliant). CXF JAX-WS support includes some extensions to the standard that make it significantly easier to use, compared to the reference implementation: It will automatically generate code for request and response bean classes, and does not require a WSDL for simple cases. It also includes a "simple frontend" which allows creation of clients and endpoints without annotations. CXF supports both contract first development with WSDL and code first development starting from Java. For REST, CXF also supports a JAX-RS (TCK compliant) frontend. Ease of use: CXF is designed to be intuitive and easy to use. There are simple APIs to quickly build code-first services, Maven plug-ins to make tooling integration easy, JAX-WS API support, Spring 2.x XML support to make configuration a snap, and much more. Binary and Legacy Protocol Support: CXF has been designed to provide a pluggable architecture that supports not only XML but also non-XML type bindings, such as JSON and CORBA, in combination with any type of transport. To get started using CXF, check out the downloads, the user's guide, or the mailing lists to get more information!

"In todays business environment data corruption can have serious consequences for the enterprise including service unavailability, system reconciliation costs, and damage to customer relationships and business reputation. The JBoss Transaction Service (JBossTS) protects businesses from data corruption by guaranteeing complete, accurate business transactions for Java based applications (including those written for the JEE and EJB frameworks) thereby eliminating the risks and costs associated with time-consuming manual reconciliation following failures."

"Seam 3 is collection of modules and developer tools based on the Java EE platform. The modules are portable extensions to CDI that integrate with other technologies to extend the core Java EE functionality. These modules bring you many of the beloved features and integrations from Seam 2 (security, internationalization, JSF, rules, business process management) and also branch out into new areas. IDE support is provided by the JBoss Tools Eclipse plugins. Before diving in, get up to speed with the status and direction of Seam 3. Also be sure to check out the latest news at the bottom of the page. "

"This page contains a catalog of migration notes and recommendations when moving from Seam 2 to Seam 3. "

Icefaces is an open source Ajax framework for developing RIA for the web. The applications are structured the same way as JSF applications, but with added Ajax features. In this article there will be a short description of the biggest differences between the IT Mill Toolkit 5.2.0 and Icefaces 1.6.2 based development of RIAs.

" Jump to: navigation, search Welcome to our Wiki. This is the Wiki home page for the Buckminster Component Assembly project, an Eclipse Tools sub project. Buckminster is a component resolution & materialization framework. Its purpose is to get software components for you and materialize them in a context of choice, typically a workspace or file system. This applies whether you are looking at what's available on your local machine, within your development organization or in the public open source cloud. Buckminster reuses existing investments in a wide range of build and source management tools - Maven, ANT, CVS, SVN, PDE, etc. It removes ambiguity from component descriptions, enables component sharing and increases productiveness when applied in development, build, assembly and deploy scenarios.

"Executing external processes from Java is a well-known problem area. It is inheriently platform dependent and requires the developer to know and test for platform specific behaviors, for example using cmd.exe on Windows or limited buffer sizes causing deadlocks. The JRE support for this is very limited, albeit better with the new Java SE 1.5 ProcessBuilder class. Reliably executing external processes can also require knowledge of the environment variables before or after the command is executed. In J2SE 1.1-1.4 there is not support for this, since the method, System.getenv(), for retriving environment variables is deprecated. There are currently several different libraries that for their own purposes have implemented frameworks around Runtime.exec() to handle the various issues outlined above. The proposed project should aim at coordinating and learning from these initatives to create and maintain a simple, reusable and well-tested package. Since some of the more problematic platforms are not readily available, it is my hope that the broad Apache community can be a great help."

2007 entscheidet sich Oracle, die Quellcodes seines erfolgreichen Persistenz-Projektes TopLink an die Eclipse Foundation zu übergeben. Seither wird das Projekt unter dem Namen EclipseLink weiterentwickelt und wurde jüngst als Referenzimplementierung für die Java Persistence API 2.0 ausgewählt. EclipseLink-Lead Doug Clarke spricht im Interview mit dem Eclipse Magazin über die Hintergründe der Migration zur Eclipse Foundation und über die Vorzüge von EclipseLink gegenüber anderen Persistenz-Frameworks wie Hibernate.
