Re: [ee4j-community] Time to play the game?

@Georgios,
Yes, what you say may also be valid. But when I said "they don't understand" I meant they have no clue what JavaEE is. To them, JavaEE means just (quote from one colleague): "you know, a webapp written with Java". Even the question "What is the reference implementation of JavaEE?" sounds strange. Some can't even distinguish JavaEE from Java as a language.
And I refer to all categories of experience, not just juniors. JavaEE has abstractized so much that you can develop an entire system and have no clue what's happening behind the courtains. Well, your deployable is a mess of useless dependencies, but somehow it works, everyone's happy.
So I think, in order to avoid the takeover of other, more verbose, technologies and practices, Eclipse Fdn has to put a *big* emphasys on tutorials and clear explanations of concepts. Even though those concepts are supposed to be understood by the majority.
Best regards,
Mihai
Hello everyone ,
Based in my personal experience as a young developer in Java EE ecosystem i think Java EE AS lacks of a central configuration system.
As a result it makes difficult for young developers to get started.
If you want to configure something you have to edit xml files or use AS's specific cli tools.
For example to connect in a database in Payara , you just provide the persistence.xml.
To achieve the same in Wildfly you must provide persistence.xml and configure the datasource in AS.
To simplify this we can have a file(config.json) and provide project's spesific configuration.
example
{
"profile" : "full|web|micro"
"datasources" : [],
"app-server-config" : {
}
}
Based on the above idea we can get rid of persistance.xml or even any other *.xml files.
P.S. take it easy on me , it's the first time that i'm writing to a mailing list :-)
Thank you,
Georgios Bourantas
