Build Apache Geronimo from scratch
Many new and veteran developers are hopping onto the ever-growing Apache Geronimo bandwagon. Thus, the ability to build Geronimo is becoming increasingly important to developers who want to incorporate changes or full-custom modules. Unfortunately, building Geronimo is no trivial task. It requires learning new build scripts and companion build applications. Luckily, you can follow this step-by-step guide to understand exactly how to build the Apache Geronimo source code from scratch.
Create and Deploy Blog and Wiki Modules with Apache Geronimo
Blogs and wikis are taking the Internet by storm. One reason these technologies thrive is simplicity for both end users and administrators. Administrators find that Apache Geronimo is a robust and secure platform for creating new blog and wiki applications. Find out how you, too, can create blog and wiki applications using Geronimo and other open source components.
Customized EJB security in JBoss
The current EJB (Enterprise JavaBeans) specification supports basic declarative, role-based access-control mechanisms, but provides limited support for coding application-specific security checks. Moreover, it doesn't define any way to factor out access-control code from business logic, or to integrate external authorization services. The open source, J2EE-compliant (Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition) JBoss application server features a protection-proxy security architecture that will help you overcome these restrictions.
Developing for WebLogic Server 8.1 with Oracle JDeveloper 10g
The Oracle JDeveloper 10g IDE is a full-featured J2EE IDE that can be used to develop and deploy J2EE applications on BEA WebLogic Server 8.1. In this tutorial, a simple JSP Web application is developed in JDeveloper and deployed to a WebLogic Server 8.1 instance. The tutorial also shows how to debug applications using the JDeveloper IDE.
Enable WebSphere MQ in Informix Applications
In its simplest form, WMQ is provides reliable messages exchange between two end points. When Informix applications use WMQ, you write custom code, manage multiple connections, and route data through your application. Now you can simplify MQing with Informix Dynamic Server V10 UC3. It has built-in support for interaction between Informix and WMQ using SQL callable functions with two-phase commit support.
Extending the IBM WebSphere Platform with Adobe Intelligent Documents
This article describes a joint solution by Adobe and IBM that
enables enterprises to communicate more effectively, automate
document-based processes, access systems offline, share
information securely, and exchange data and information with
people and systems. Optimized for IBM WebSphere, the Adobe
Intelligent Document Platform creates Intelligent Documents
that can be used throughout the IBM middleware application
stack to extend business processes, provide better interaction
between systems, and improve communications with partners and
customers.
Geronimo Serves Up One-Click Upgrades with Plug-In Support
The ability to install and create plug-ins is one of the most anticipated new features in the Apache Geronimo 1.1 release. This article introduces you to Geronimo plug-ins and shows you how to find them, install them, and create them yourself. Plug-ins open a new world of instant upgrades for Geronimo users. You can now download new applications and services and have them running on your Geronimo server within minutes.
Integrate security infrastructures with JBossSX
The current Enterprise JavaBean and Servlet specifications omit integration between the application server and existing security infrastructures. This article describes how version 2.4 of the open source JBoss application server security extension project (JBossSX) uses Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS) login modules as its integration API. JAAS allows for integration without programming, using security infrastructures that use Java Database Connectivity, the lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP), or properties-based login modules bundled with JBoss. For security infrastructures that do not support those access mechanisms, integration entails writing a simple custom login module.
JMX Unlocks Application Management Potential
This article introduces to the power of Application Management and Monitoring with the industry standard for Java Application Management, Java Management Extensions(JMX). It serves as a introduction to the technology itself and explains the building blocks of the technology giving an overview of building a complete management solution based on JMX
Lotus Domino and IBM WebSphere integration for developers
There are many implementations of J2EE. These include the original reference by Sun Microsystems, IBM's WebSphere Application Server, WebLogic by BEA, JRun by Macromedia, and the open source J2EE-compliant server JBoss. This article focuses on WebSphere, although it is also applicable to applications developed on any of the preceding J2EE-compliant platforms. It also examines Domino to WebSphere integration consisting of two flavors: Domino to the Web container and Domino to the EJB container.
Orion EJB tutorial
This tutorial is supposed to explain how to make simple enterprise java beans and how to deploy them in the Orion Application Server. First we will make a simple stateful session bean without using any of the GUI tools.
Real-World Security using Apache Geronimo
Developing secure Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) applications is an essential consideration for an enterprise of any size. Geronimo provides a number of facilities for securing applications at multiple levels, both declaratively and programmatically. This article takes you through a banking scenario that shows off the AGeronimo application server's robust security features.
Simply Steps to Jump Start WebSphere MQ on Linux
This article shows you how to get started installing and configuring WebSphere MQ on Linux and developing Java applications for the MQ environment, using sample applications for sending messages to and receiving messages from a queue.
Tomcat Basics
Developing Web Applications with the Tomcat Engine. Tomcat is
an open source implementation of Java Servlet and JavaServer
Pages technologies that is used by a Web server as a servlet
container. Tomcat is developed under the Jakarta project at the
Apache Software Foundation. Tomcat 5 supports the Servlet 2.4
and JSP 2.0 specifications. Tomcat server was created by Apache
to run Servlets and JavaServer Pages (JSP) in Web applications.
Using Eclipse as a development environment with Jakarta Tomcat
Using Eclipse as a development environment for Java is great. Using an Eclipse Tomcat plug-in can help to better organize and integrate your Java and Web development projects. This article will guide you step-by-step through the installation of Eclipse, Jakarta Tomcat, and an Eclipse Tomcat launcher plug-in that will integrate them.
