Implementing the Builder Pattern using the Bean Validation API

variation of the Builder design pattern for instantiating objects with multiple optional attributes.

this pattern frees you from providing multiple constructors with the different optional attributes as parameters (hard to maintain and hard to read for clients)

or providing setter methods for the optional attributes

Some people are talkative and tend to wander off into Story Telling

Some people want to engage in Problem Solving immediately

Other topics of discussion (e.g., design discussions, gossip, etc.) should be deferred until after the meeting.

questions should be reversed in order to emphasise the correct order of importance:

Any impediments in your way? What are you working on today? What have you finished since yesterday?

From Spring to Java EE 6

EJB MDG Technology for Enterprise Java Beans allows the user to model EJB entities and EJB sessions, complete with UML profiles for modeling EJB, EJB patterns and Code Management. (requires Enterprise Architect 4.1 or later)

ICONIX AGILE DDT ICONIX Agile Developer - Design-Driven Testing (DDT) streamlines the ICONIX modeling process, providing: Convenient modeling of robustness diagrams Automatic generation of sequence diagram structures from robustness diagrams Transformation of robustness control elements to test diagrams Transformation of sequence diagram elements to test diagrams Transformation of requirement diagrams to test diagrams Transformation between test cases and test classes. (JUnit & NUnit) Built-in model validation rules for ICONIX robustness diagrams (requires Enterprise Architect 7.5 or later)

Testing MDG Technology for Testing helps users to rapidly model a wide range of testing procedures including component testing, SUT, Test Cases and more. (requires Enterprise Architect 4.1 or later)

Instructions for loading an MDG Technology EXE file: Download and run the .exe file to install the MDG technology. Open Enterprise Architect. Select from the Main Menu Add-Ins | XYZ Technology | Load.

Built-in MDG Technologies: Most of the MDG Technologies provided by Sparx Systems are built into Enterprise Architect directly. Depending on your edition of Enterprise Architect, some or all of the following MDG Technologies will be available:

Gang of Four Patterns

Mind Mapping

Web Modeling

Data Flow (DFD)

Entity-Relationship (ERD)

a composite is an object designed as a composition of one-or-more similar objects, all exhibiting similar functionality

can manipulate a single instance of the object just as you would manipulate a group of them

this annotation bypasses the management layer and as such it is recommended only for development and testing purposes

Defining a Managed DataSource

Installing a JDBC driver as a deployment

Installing the JDBC Driver

deployment or as a core module

managed by the application server (and thus take advantage of the management and connection pooling facilities it provides), you must perform two tasks.  First, you must make the JDBC driver available to the application server; then you can configure the data source itself.  Once you have performed these tasks you can use the data source via standard JNDI injection.

recommended way to install a JDBC driver into the application server is to simply deploy it as a regular JAR deployment.  The reason for this is that when you run your application server in domain mode, deployments are automatically propagated to all servers to which the deployment applies; thus distribution of the driver JAR is one less thing for administrators to worry about.

Note on MySQL driver and JDBC Type 4 compliance: while the MySQL driver (at least up to 5.1.18) is designed to be a Type 4 driver, its jdbcCompliant() method always return false. The reason is that the driver does not pass SQL 92 full compliance tests, says MySQL. Thus, you will need to install the MySQL JDBC driver as a module (see below).

Installing a JDBC driver as a module

<module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.0" name="com.mysql">  <resources>    <resource-root path="mysql-connector-java-5.1.15.jar"/>  </resources>  <dependencies>    <module name="javax.api"/>  </dependencies></module>

jboss-7.0.0.<release>/modules/com/mysql/main

define your module with a module.xml file, and the actual jar file that contains your database driver

content of the module.xml file

Under the root directory of the application server, is a directory called modules

module name, which in this example is com.mysql

where the implementation is, which is the resource-root tag with the path element

define any dependencies you might have.  In this case, as the case with all JDBC data sources, we would be dependent on the Java JDBC API's, which in this case in defined in another module called javax.api, which you can find under modules/javax/api/main as you would expect.

Defining the DataSource itself

   <datasource jndi-name="java:jboss/datasources/MySqlDS" pool-name="MySqlDS">      <connection-url>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/EJB3</connection-url>         <driver>com.mysql</driver>

    <drivers>      <driver name="com.mysql" module="com.mysql">        <xa-datasource-class>com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlXADataSource</xa-datasource-class>      </driver>    </drivers>
