The ASF Resigns From the JCP Executive Committee - 0 views

  • Oracle provided the EC with a Java SE 7 specification request and license that are self-contradictory, severely restrict distribution of independent implementations of the spec, and most importantly, prohibit the distribution of independent open source implementations of the spec.  Oracle has refused to answer any reasonable and responsible questions from the EC regarding these problems.
  • In the phrase "fail to uphold their responsibilities under the JSPA", we are referring to Oracle's refusal to provide the ASF's Harmony project with a TCK license for Java SE that complies with Oracle's obligations under the JSPA as well as public promises made to the Java community by officers of Sun Microsystems (recently acquired by Oracle.)
  • it should be noted that the majority of the EC members, including Oracle, have publicly stated that restrictions on distribution such as those found in the Java SE 7 license have no place in the JCP - and two distinguished individual members of the EC, Doug Lea and Tim Peierls, both have resigned in protest over the same issue.
  • ...9 more annotations...
  • By approving Java SE 7, the EC has failed on both counts : the members of the EC refused to stand up for the rights of implementers, and by accepting Oracle's TCK license terms for Java SE 7, they let the integrity of the JCP's licensing structure be broken.
  • The Apache Software Foundation concludes that that JCP is not an open specification process
  • and finally, the EC is unwilling or unable to assert the basic power of their role in the JCP governance process
  • In short, the EC and the Java Community Process are neither.
  • To that end, our representative has informed the JCP's Program Management Office of our resignation, effective immediately.  As such, the ASF is removing all official representatives from any and all JSRs. In addition, we will refuse any renewal of our JCP membership and, of course, our EC position.
  • Okay ! Java's privatized now... What now ?
  • Thank god I moved off Java in time. Suddenly Oracle is the new Death Star, replacing Microsoft.
  • This is a sad, sad day in the Java community. I hoped that Oracle would back-peddle and realize the folly of their ways. Now Java will be to Oracle what .NET is to Microsoft and it will be the death of Java as we know it.
  • Posibly in few years we'll see Apache as a new Sun for "Java", followed by Eclipse, Google, etc... I hope this is a great movement done by Apache for the community. We'll see... The objetive of Oracle are Enterprises that cannot move from Java because of hight investments, it will earn a lot of money from them. Oracle ignores the community because is not going to pay for (expensive, as all the rest of Oracle products) licenses... We'll se...

    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.

  •  
    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.

Java Developers Leery of IBM-Sun Merger - 0 views

  • Java must advance into the new world of the cloud and big developer productivity.
  • Java will become a legacy platform.
  • slow down innovation
  • ...10 more annotations...
  • It would certainly bring us down to two major players on the Java side: IBM and Oracle.
    • Baron M
       
      this is damn TRUE!
  • IBM likes to create these 'boil the ocean' kinds of solutions
    • Baron M
       
      this is the GENERAL PRACTICE of IBM and Oracle
  • IBM could wind up having six different JVM [Java Virtual Machine] implementations
    • Baron M
       
      I like this example... and most likely, this would happen if IBM buys SUN
  • it's a good thing for Sun to get out of the doldrums
  • Every time IBM has bought a company that was in a leadership position, that company seems to have lost market share
    • Baron M
       
      sad but it's a fact...
  • JCP for behaving like a "Russian commissar.
  • Although many have lost faith in the JCP, this is one area where a new steward could really breathe new life into Java
  • the speediest when it comes to keeping their Java technologies up-to-date
  • hold back innovation in support of their own client needs
  • server market would become a bit tighter and that playing field would be altered as well

  • Package java.util.concurrent.atomic A small toolkit of classes that support lock-free thread-safe programming on single variables.
  • A small toolkit of classes that support lock-free thread-safe programming on single variables. In essence, the classes in this package extend the notion of volatile values, fields, and array elements to those that also provide an atomic conditional update operation of the form: boolean compareAndSet(expectedValue, updateValue);
  • Atomic classes are not general purpose replacements for java.lang.Integer and related classes. They do not define methods such as hashCode and compareTo. (Because atomic variables are expected to be mutated, they are poor choices for hash table keys.)
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • The specifications of these methods enable implementations to employ efficient machine-level atomic instructions that are available on contemporary processors.
  • java.util.concurrent.atomic Class AtomicInteger java.lang.Object java.lang.Number java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicInteger
  • An int value that may be updated atomically. See the java.util.concurrent.atomic package specification for description of the properties of atomic variables. An AtomicInteger is used in applications such as atomically incremented counters, and cannot be used as a replacement for an Integer. However, this class does extend Number to allow uniform access by tools and utilities that deal with numerically-based classes.
  • int incrementAndGet()           Atomically increments by one the current value.

Lucid Imagination » Don't Use Java 7, For Anything - 1 views

  • In case you upgrade to Java 7, remember that you may have to reindex, as the unicode version shipped with Java 7 changed and tokenization behaves differently (e.g. lowercasing).
  • Unfortunately it contains hotspot compiler optimizations, which miscompile some loops. This can affect code of several Apache projects. Sometimes JVMs only crash, but in several cases, results calculated can be incorrect, leading to bugs in applications
  •  
    Unfortunate first major release under Oracle stewardship.
