Bonjour,

Next week, I'll be in Zurich for the Jazoon conferenc e with the GlassFish crew. This is a Java conference, and I'll be talking about....PHP and OpenSolaris and the OpenSolaris WebStack (Apache, MySQL, PHP,...). What!!! PHP at a Java conference? Am I crazy?

I hope not. OpenSolaris 2008.05 is not your father's Solaris. It is something I can use and it comes with a modern AMP stack. So what is the relationship with Java then? Well, since I am a GlassFish developer (and NetBeans developer, and Eclipse developer), I'll be talking about the possible integrations of the AMP stack and GlassFish:

Configuring the OpenSolaris Apache and GlassFish with mod_jk to have parts of your Apache web site served with GlassFish
Configuring the PHP-Java Bridge on OpenSolaris to extend your PHP applications with 'legacy calls' to Java processing performed under GlassFish
Using daily builds of NetBeans 6.5 that have killer support for:

Editing and debugging JavaScript
Creating PHP project, editing and debugging PHP files with the OpenSolaris AMP stack. Yeahhh! NetBeans can do PHP!
Adding jMaki Ajax snippets into PHP projects
Using GlassFish V2 and V3 (V3 plugin is *now* part of the NetBeans 6.5 builds) Java EE project to demonstrate the PHP-Java interoperability

And on Monday, we will host a Jazoon GlassFish day, so if you are around, please stop by and ask as many crazy questions you want. The GlassFish team will be there and well represented. Thanks Alexis for organizing this GlassFish day.

Next stop will be Ajaccio and Britany, but definitely not for work:-)

Eclipse Foundation and GlassFish community

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:

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
