Arun has a blog entry up announcing the availability of the JavaOne '08 "TicTacToe" demo from the glassfish-scripting site. The source code for the Java EE, Rails and Grails applications are all available along with some documentation. What makes this demo interesting is GlassFish v3's fast startup, dynamic behavior (loading the web container, the JRubyOnRails or the Groovy runtimes on demand), but also how multiple applications written in different languages and frameworks can be hosted in the same environment while sharing things such as a comet context. |
Arun and the team are taking feedback on webtier-AT-glassfish.dev.java.net or on the GlassFish WebTier Forum. If this scripting topic is of interest to you, you should probably follow Vivek's blog, the Scripting for GlassFish lead.
I am presenting tomorrow (Friday, May 30) at RailsConf 2008, a session entitled Rails powered by Glassfish and jMaki. Originally, this was intended to be presented by my colleague Arun Gupta, but his wife is due with a child "any day now", and she, for SOME reason, took exception to his being away right at the moment :-).
Best wishes to Arun and family ... you can find the presentation slides here.
