GlassFish V3 TP2 and NetBeans 6.1

Posted by ludo on May 04, 2008 at 04:18 AM | Permalink | Comments (1)

Bonjour,

GlassFish V3 TP2 is now available. If you want to use it, or even download it from NetBeans 6.1, just fire the IDE, go the tools->plugins menu and refresh the list of modules, you should see 2 modules, one for Java EE development and one for jRuby projects. Just watch the images to see how you can get both the NetBeans modules, and then download the GlassFish V3 TP2 runtime, and see the 2 new libraries registered by the Server: EclipseLink to do JPA entity beans work and Grizzly Comet to do cool Comet Applications...
Most of the Java EE support from NetBeans 6.1 works with GlassFish V3 TP2 (Db to JPA, JPA to JSF, jMaki, Jersey RestFul services,...) and if you are a jRuby on Rails developers, you can now select the GlassFish server as s deployment target for your NetBeans jRoR projects...

Just scroll through the following images, and you'll know everything about this new NetBeans/GlassFish integration:

My my, hey hey
Rock and roll is here to stay
It's better to burn out than to fade away
My my, hey hey

Out of the blue and into the black
They give you this, but you pay for that
And once you're gone, you can never come back
When you're out of the blue and into the black

The king is gone but he's not forgotten
This is the story of Johnny Rotten
It's better to burn out than it is to rust
The king is gone but he's not forgotten

Hey hey, my my
Rock and roll can never die
There's more to the picture
Than meets the eye
Hey hey, my my



If only this page could also play the music...

GlassFish V3 TP2 plugin for NetBeans 6.1 (for Web Applications and jRuby On Rails Applications)

NetBeans 6.1 IDE just shipped, but wait.... go the the Update Center, and download the GlassFish V3 TP2 plugins, one for Java EE support, one for the jRuby on Rails projects to get all the incredible Java EE or jRuby developer features that are packed in the IDE with a V3 target... You cannot beat NetBeans 6.1 for Java EE and Ruby features, no way!!!

GlassFish V3 TP2 plugin for Eclipse 3.3

For the Eclipse enthusiasts, GlassFish V3 TP2 server has a plugin as well, so that you can develop Dynamic Web Projects (via WTP) and deploy/debug them with a GlassFish V3 target, including JPA EclipseLink database applications.  Or and if you recall GlassFish V3 TP2 is OSGI based, then, you'll understand a bit more this screen showing GlassFish OSGI modules running embedded inside the Eclipse IDE:

See the list of OSGI bundles in this "About Eclipse" dialog:

jMaki version 1.8: Plugins for NetBeans(JSP, PHP, Ruby, Phobos) and Eclipse (JSP)

The new jMaki plugins for NetBeans 6.1 and Eclipse will show up later this week on the update centers or the https://ajax.dev.java.net site


So, I guess you have now a sense of the crazy days before CommunityOne and JavaOne. Hope to see you there in person next week,

Merci,
Ludo

Eclipse Foundation and GlassFish community

Posted by ludo on March 17, 2008 at 01:21 PM | Permalink | Comments (0)

Bonjour,

I just love it when things are aligned. Today, it is about Eclipse and Sun, or I should say Eclipse Foundation and the GlassFish community.
Read it at http://www.eclipse.org/org/press-release/20080317_Eclipselink.php  : EclipseLink will be used in GlassFish V3 Application Server (Java EE 6) and it will be the reference implementation for JPA (Java Persistence API) 2.0.
Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems to be the first press release ever done mentioning those 2 names: Eclipse Foundation and Sun Microsystems. If you are an Eclipse user, I hope you have noticed the *only* company name that is displayed in the Eclipse splash screen. If not, pay attention the next time you see the screen...

As you might know, I've been involved a lot in the J2EE and Java EE support in NetBeans, and honestly, I can tell this is one of the best support you can get for Java EE developers. And I have also been involved in the GlassFish (V1, V2 and V3) plugin for Eclipse as well as the jMaki plugin for Eclipse. It is good to be able to reach as many developers as possible and give them access to one of the best application server out there.

This week, EclipseCon conference is happening in Santa Clara, and Carla Mott and I will be speaking about GlassFish V2, GlassFish V3, jMaki  and Eclipse:  See http://www.eclipsecon.org/2008/?page=sub/&id=36.
Our talk is Thurday, March 20th at 10:30 am Grand BallRoom F: Eclipse: Enterprise Apps and Rich Front-end using GlassFish and jMaki.

If you are not familiar about the GlassFish Application Server support in Eclipse, please read these pages:
  1. https://glassfishplugins.dev.java.net/
  2. http://weblogs.java.net/blog/ludo/archive/2007/06/glassfish_tooli.html
  3. https://glassfishplugins.dev.java.net/eclipse33/index.html
  4. and watch the screencat at  http://weblogs.java.net/blog/arungupta/archive/2007/06/screencast_ws6.html
Both the GlassFish plugin and the jMaki plugin are being updated this week (tomorrow?) for a better GlassFish V3 support and a brand new jMaki 1.1 beta support. We are just doing the final testing today.

Enjoy, and as always, feedback is welcome,

Ludo
