Jakarta EE Survey 2020

-
At OmniFaces we poll the community from time to time about Java EE (now Jakarta EE) and related technologies. With the transfer of Java EE to Jakarta EE now almost completed, people are now starting to think about Jakarta EE 10 , the first Jakarta EE release after Java EE 8 having new featues. As such it's a good time to poll the community again. In the 2020 edition, there are 4 categories of questions again: Current usage of Java EE / Jakarta EE Servlet containers APIs related to Java EE / Jakarta EE The future of Jakarta EE Compared to 2018, we simplified some of the questions somewhat, omitting some of the less popular options to make it more manageable. We added questions about the future of Jakarta EE and MP together, the preferred Jakarta EE cadence, and generally updated the choices (such as adding Quarkus , which wasn't quite on the radar in 2018 and our own Piranha Cloud ). Jakarta EE provides the opportunity to revitalise and modernise Java EE, but i

    Lol. This was an awesome sketch. Got to love like people, when in positions of power, just have an enormous tendency to waste each others time. There's that, and the fact that people just likes to speak a lot in order to sound smarter, even if what they're saying does not make much sense.

    When reality is so ridiculous that we managed to present it in a comic way, it's great, I congratulate you

JSF 2.3 released!

-
After a long and at times intense spec and development process the JSF 2.3 EG is proud to announce that today we've released JSF 2.3 . JSF (JavaServer Faces), is a component based MVC framework that's part of Java EE. JSF 2.3 in particular is part of Java EE 8. Major new features in JSF 2.3 are a tighter integration with CDI, support for WebSockets, a really cool component search expression framework (donated by PrimeFaces ), basic support for extensionless URLs, and class level bean validation. The age old native managed beans of JSF 2.3 have finally been deprecated (although they are still available for now) in favour of CDI. It's expected that these will be fully removed (pruned) in a future release. The JSF 2.3 EG would like to thank everyone who contributed to JSF in whatever way, by creating bug reports, testing builds, providing comments and insights on the mailinglist and contributing code. Without those community contributions JSF 2.3 would not have been

Dynamic beans in CDI 2.0

-
A while ago we wrote about CDIs ability to dynamically add Bean<T> instances to the CDI runtime. A Bean<T> is a kind of factory for beans, that makes types available for injection, lookup via the bean manager , or by referencing them in expression language. CDI producers (via the @Produces annotation) fulfil a somewhat similar role, but they essentially only make the "create instance" method dynamic; the rest (like scope, types, etc) is more or less static. A programmatically added Bean<T> essentially makes all those aspects dynamic. As the previous article showed, dynamically adding such Bean<T> is a bit more work and it's quite verbose, as well as a little complex as the developer has to find out what to return as a default for various methods that are not directly of interest. CDI 2.0 has addressed some of the above issues by providing a very convenient builder that not only makes creating a Bean<T> instance far less verbose, bu

Dynamically adding an interceptor to a build-in CDI bean

-
In Java EE's CDI, beans can be augmented via 2 artefacts; Decorators and Interceptors . Decorators are typically owned by the application code and can decorate a bean that's shipped by the container ( build-in beans ) or a library. Interceptors are typically shipped by a library and can be applied (bound) to a bean that's owned by the application. So how do you bind a library shipped interceptor to a library shipped/build-in bean? In CDI 1.2 and before this wasn't really possible, but in CDI 2.0 we can take advantage of the new InterceptionFactory to do just this. It's not entirely trivial yet, but it's doable. In this article we'll demonstrate how to apply the @RememberMe interceptor binding from the new Java EE 8 Security spec to a build-in bean of type HttpAuthenticationMechanism , which is from the Security spec as well. First we configure our authentication mechanism by means of the following annotation: @BasicAuthenticationMechanismDefin
