J2EE
Services Framework with Teeth...
-David H. Young, LEJ
Editor
Our previous issue coincided with the inaugural
release of Lutris EAS 4, our next generation application
server. We featured
lots of articles about the new Java Services
Architecture that reflected the goals of Sun's
JSR-111, "Java Services Framework" to
make it possible to add additional peer services
that are required by real world application models.
In this issue, we've attempted to drive home the
plug 'n play advantages of the Services Architecture
with articles featuring our new SMS,
Scheduler
and CIMOM
services.

the Lutris EAS 4.1 BETA... Features
simplifed migration of BEA or IBM applications
and integrated SMS, Scheduler Services...
and it's tighter, faster and more customizeable.

Derek Baum from Lutris partner Paremus
in the UK contributes his experience implementing
a JavaSpaces
service on EAS. Along
with Paremus, three other Lutris partners CustomWare,
Diamelle,
Digitalsesame
have contributed their insights on EAS as well
as a testing strategy using JUnit for Lutris Enhydra.
The folks at CustomWare are our newest partner.
Well,
we're at 4,000 LEJ subscribers
and a lot of folks have downloaded EAS... Meanwhile,
we had  great
news from our EMEA office where Infosto of Finland
have chosen to go with Lutris EAS 4. Look for
our 4.1 BETA release in a few weeks. Some of the
work from that effort, such as Enhydra XMLC's
Xerces-version independence should find its way
into the open source xmlc project by January.
I've
compiled a list of "known
Enhydra sites" that includes Enhydra
Superservlet, Enhydra standard servlet or other
application servers powered by XMLC. By the way,
has anybody looked at the list of Enhydra projects
lately?
- xmlc.enhydra.org
(xml for web,wireless presentations)
- zeus.enhydra.org
(xml data binding)
- kxml.enhydra.org
(j2me micro xml parser)
- me.enhydra.org
(micro app server for j2me devices)
- dods.enhydra.org
(object-to-sql db mapper)
- enhydra.enhydra.org
(java/xml app server)
- ksoap.enhydra.org
(micro web services)
- kuddi.enhydra.org
(micro web services)
- director.enhydra.org
(clustering of app servers)
- barracuda.enhydra.org
(presentation framework over xmlc)
- mail4me.enhydra.org
(POP, IMAP for J2ME)
- kxmlrpc.enhydra.org
(RPC for J2ME)
- aleutia.enhydra.org
(assembling enhydra services)
- locumi.enhydra.org
(peers as HTTP servers)
- kelp.enhydra.org
(IDE plug-ins for enhydra server)
The
Enhydra book watch :It was
just a matter of time... Enhydra books are starting
to appear. Shown in the lefthand column, the folks
at Speedware
dedicated a chapter of their new book "Building
Dynamic WAP Applications with MobileDev"
to show to build a WML Java application with Enhydra.
A new, entirely Enhydra XMLC book, also from Sams
and from yours truly, will debut in mid-December
under the title "Enhydra XMLC Java Presentation
Development.". Stay tuned for updates. By
the way, the last chapter is dedicated to Barracuda!
And, of course, our own Brett McLaughlin continues
to churn out his witicisms with the 2nd edition
his wildly successsful Java
and XML from O'Reilly. Congrats Brett!.
