Win a Canon SD1000 - Write an Admin Plugin for GF v3

ALT DESCR

JavaOne is proving to be its normal self. I had totally missed the GF v3 Admin Plugin Contest! I think it is a Nazrul/Anil special... Anyhow, thanks to Ken for the tip; go check the rules for the contest so you will have a chance to win a Canon SD1000 camera.

And, if you think you have a really cool idea for a plugin, go an submit it to the GAP program; we still have a few openings.

Taking EJB 3.1 for a Test Drive - Install it on GlassFish v3

ALT DESCR

The release of the EJB 3.1 EDR Spec early last month generated good feedback but there is nothing like an implementation to help understand the spec so...

Mahesh and the implementation team have just pushed out an EA of EJB3.1 that installs as a container in the newly available GFv3 TP2. Check out the Features Available and How to Install it. Also see Ken's intro to the plugin.

Check it out and please give us feedback. Enjoy!

GlassFish v3 TP2 - Now Available

ALT DESCR

GlassFish v3 TP2 is now available! Start at the Download Page; the release itself is just 22MB as a ZIP.

Check: QuickStart Guide, Content, Tutorial and Documentation Index.

This is the new modular, OSGi-based, version of the GlassFish Server. You will note it starts very fast (you can use "--verbose" for timing info). Once up it is listening on port 8080 (by default) and you get the Up and Running Page. Services are loaded (and downloaded if necessary!) as needed.

For example, if you go request the administration console it will be loaded and you will see the familiar Login Screen, and, behind it, the Administration Tasks.

GF v3 TP2 includes the new IPS-based package tool, and its associated Update Center 2. These tools are written in Python and the python packages will be downloaded on demand. Note that the Python Window kit (wxpython2.8), used by the UC2, is 128MB.

This release is described as a Technology Preview 2, but we believe it is actually quite solid; my hats off to the team for pulling it off!

Added: Also see Ludo's note on GFv3 TP2 and NB 6.1.

GlassFish v3 - Now With OSGi Support

3 weeks to go before JavaOne and I expect the usual flurry of announcements and releases. One we have already pre-announced is GlassFish v3 TP2; in the next days we will highlight some of the benefits of this release.

JavaOne 22 Days to go

The two key features in GFv3 are modularity and Java EE 6, and the first one is showing with a twist: Jerome has announced that GFv3 runs on OSGi! The lower layers of HK2 were designed to be replaceable and the latest TP2 builds include a OSGi runtime.

"Very eager" users can go try this in GFv3 TP2 b09; those that are just "eager" may want to wait for this week's build, or wait a bit longer for the actual TP2 release.

We will be showcasing GFv3 TP2 and more at JavaOne but if you want a sneak preview come to the GlassFish Track of CommunityOne on Monday.

GlassFish v3 Technology Preview - Now Available

Jerome presented GlassFish v3 yesterday at GlassFish Day. It was the last session of the day and it was very hard core and, yet, the room was 3/4th full and the guy in front of me started clapping a couple of times. I have not seen many blogs about the session (yet?) but Leroy K liked it too.

All good signs for the next generation GlassFish, and you can join in too. The first GF v3 TP is Now Available. Check the Wiki page which includes Build and Development Instructions and Samples.

I just checked and I see that HK2 has not included the new GF Project Look; I'll remind Jerome or Kohsuke. Also see our Earlier Spotlight.

Thanks to Tim for the links!

Added - I forgot to point out that Jerome et al are doing two presentations on GF v3 at JavaOne this week. There is a BOF this (Tuesday) evening at 9pm (BOF-6678) in Esplanade 301 and then the TS is Thursday afternoon at 2:50 (TS-6503) Espanade 307-310. I believe the BOF is sold out.
