Like most recent years, I have been speaking at quite a few conferences around the World. ![]() Time for the yearly summary of conferences, travels, community activities, open source projects, amazing people! We have created an issue in each of the specification GitHub projects as well as a Specification Project Renaming board in EE4J GitHub organization to track the process. In this case, Jakarta Messaging would be a much more descriptive name. So it is much more than just a message service. The Java™ Message Service specification covers create, send receive and read messages. Which isn’t even an acronym! It is just some collection of letters to fit into the JAX-* naming standard used by Sun back in the J2EE days. I don’t think anyone ever uses the long name, but rather the abbreviation/acronym JAX-RS. Think about Jakarta REST versus Java™ API for RESTful Web Services. It may not be as precise and descriptive, but should that really be the requirement of the name? Wouldn’t it be better to have a name that we can remember and use in daily talk? Jakarta REST I think most of us agree that Jakarta Authentication is far more easy to remember than The Java Authentication Service Provider Interface for Containers. A couple of examples: Jakarta Authentication Some of the acronyms we are using daily aren’t even acronyms, but more of an artificially created letter combination following some sort of standard. Some of them so long that we have to google the acronym to be able to describe what it actually abbreviates. Add to this, that some of the names we are talking about in this context are pretty bad. At the same time, we live in this ever-changing industry where embracing change is, not only a mantra but also a requirement to survive. Most of us also have this inherent feeling that change is bad and should be avoided. Naming is hard and changing names that we have become attached to is even harder. Posted in EclipseFoundation, Jakarta EE / Tagged with Adoptium, Community, Jakarta EE, JCP, MicroProfileĪs Wayne Beaton wrote about in his blog Renaming Java EE Specifications for Jakarta EE, the process of renaming the Java EE specifications as a part of the path towards Jakarta EE 8 has started. Check the JCP elections website and follow on Twitter for announcements of how to join the call. Tune in to the “Meet the JCP EC Candidates” conference call on Thursday, Octoat 10 AM PDT. The move of AdoptOpenJDK to Eclipse Foundation and the establishment of the Adoptium working group makes Eclipse Foundation the biggest distributor of Java™ runtimes after Oracle. Being a part of the JCP EC secures the important linkage between Java™ SE and the enterprise Java™ technologies. ![]() VOTE for the Open Source Community, VOTE for Eclipse Foundation!īoth Jakarta EE and MicroProfile are established as working groups within the Eclipse Foundation. I have previously served two periods as an individual holding an associate seat, as well as being the alternate for Eclipse Foundation the last year. To summarize, my advice is to make it so that you get to choose whatever IDE you want to use.I am happy to be announced as the candidate for the primary representative of the Eclipse Foundation in this election. Just say that it is a maven project, give them the source, and they are good to go. If we want to out-source something, this is very handy because we don't have to care what plugins they are using. ![]() We don't need eclipse to build stuff, we can integrate the project without hassle into a CI (Continuous Integration) server, and I get to use my favorite IDE Intellij. We also use maven for dependency management instead of the eclipse's build-in one, and it was a very good idea. I believe THIS is an altogether better approach To use whatever third party tools that is good, and to not depend too much of Eclipse/Netbeans specific functions. to handle what could be thought of WS specific tasks. We have an enterprise application that uses webservice (WS), and most of our colleagues use eclipse (I use Intellij, but that has nothing to do with WS).Īnyways, we have no problems, and the reason is we don't use IDE for anything that is specific to WS.
