JEE 7 Theme Pakistan Java User Group 10. Pakistan Java User Group 11. Active JSRs JSR 342: Java EE 7 Platform JSR 338: Java API for RESTful Web Services 2.0 JSR 339: Java Persistence API 2.1 JSR 340: Servlet 3.1 JSR 341: Expression Language 3.0 JSR 343: Java Message Service 2.0 JSR 344: JavaServer Faces 2.2 JSR 345: Enteprise JavaBeans 3.2 JSR 346: Contexts and Dependency Injection 1.1 JSR 349: Bean Validation 1.1 JSR 236: Concurrency Utilities for Java EE 1.0 JSR 352: Batch Applications for the Java Platform 1.0 JSR 353: Java API for JSON Processing 1.0 JSR 356: Java API for WebSocket 1.0 Pakistan Java User Group 12. Concurrency and Java EE Managing your own threads within a Java EE container is not recommended Using java.util.concurrent API in a Java EE application component such as EJB or Servlet are problematic since the container and server have no knowledge of these resource Provides simple, safe API for concurrency in Java EE Builds on Java SE concurrency java.util.concurrent.ExecutorService Pakistan Java User Group 13. Pakistan Java User Group 14. Batch Applications for the Java Platform Batch processing is execution of series of "jobs" that is suitable for non-interactive, bulk-oriented and long-running tasks. no standard Java programming model existed for batch applications.

Java EE Web Profile Enhancements The Java Enterprise Edition Web Profile was introduced in Java EE 6 Most Web applications have significant requirements in the areas of transaction management, security, and persistence. but are not supported by standalone servlet containers Web Profile is provided with pre-installed, pre- integrated, fully tested Web infrastructure features. The Java EE 7 Web Profile adds support for HTML5 with WebSockets, JSON, JAX-RS 2.0, and more. Pakistan Java User Group 17. Bean Validation 1.1 Method constraints Bean Validation artifacts injectable Fixes, clarifications and enhancements Pakistan Java User Group 18. Bean Validation 1.1 Method Level Constraints Pakistan Java User Group public void placeOrder( @NotNull String productName, @NotNull @Max(10) Integer quantity, @Customer String customer) { . . . } @Future public Date getAppointment() { . . . } 19. JSF 2.2 HTML5 Support @FlowScoped @ViewScoped for CDI Managed beans deprecated/CDI alignment File upload component View actions Multi-templating Security Fixes and enhancements Pakistan Java User Group 20. JSON Processing Support JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format. It is easy for humans to read and write. It is easy for machines to parse and generate. It is based on a subset of the JavaScript Programming Language, Standard ECMA-262 3rd Edition - December 1999. JSON is a text format that is completely language independent but uses conventions that are familiar to programmers Pakistan Java User Group { employee": [ { "firstName":"John" , "lastName":"Doe" }, { "firstName":"Anna" , "lastName":"Smith" }, { "firstName":"Peter" , "lastName":"Jones" } ] } JSON Example 21. JSON Implementations for Java org.json. org.json.me. Jackson JSON Processor. Json-lib. JSON Tools. Stringtree. SOJO. Jettison. json-taglib. XStream. Flexjson. JON tools. Argo. jsonij. fastjson. mjson. jjson. json-simple. json-io. JsonMarshaller. google-gson. Json-smart. FOSS Nova JSON. Corn CONVERTER. Pakistan Java User Group a lot of implementations for other languages 22. Why we need another API? Pakistan Java User Group JSON has become a defacto data transfer standard specially for RESTful Web Services. Java applications use different implementations to consume and process JSON data There should be standardized Java API for JSON so that applications do not need to bundle the implementation libraries 23. JSON Processing Support API to parse and generate JSON Streaming API Low level efficient way to parse/generate JSON Provide pluggability for parser/generator Object Model Simple, Easy-to-use high-level API Implemented on top of Streaming API Pakistan Java User Group 24. Java API for JSON Processing Writing JSON (Object Model API) Pakistan Java User Group employees": [ { firstName": Asif", lastName": Naveed }, { firstName": Khalid", lastName": Ali } ] JsonObject jsonObject = new JsonBuilder() .beginArray(employees") .beginObject() .add(firstName", Asif") .add(lastName", Naveed") .endObject() .beginObject () .add(firstName", Khalid") .add(lastName", Ali").endObject() .endArray() .build(); 25. Java API for JSON Processing Pakistan Java User Group { "firstName": "Javaid", "lastName": Shah", "age": 19, "phoneNumber": [ { "type": cell", "number": 03218983449" }, { "type": "fax", "number": 02142423212" } ] } Iterator it = parser.iterator(); Event event = it.next(); // START_OBJECT event = it.next(); // KEY_NAME event = it.next(); // VALUE_STRING String name = parser.getString(); // "Javaid Reading JSON (Streaming API) 26. Web Socket Support In age of Web 2.0 / 3.0 , We need interactive websites Pakistan Java User Group but In the standard HTTP model, a server cannot initiate a connection with a client nor send an unrequested HTTP response to a client; thus, the server cannot push asynchronous events to clients. 27. Why WebSocket? HTTP is half duplex HTTP is verbose Hacks for Server Push Polling Long Polling Comet/Ajax Complex, Wasteful, Inefficient Pakistan Java User Group 28. HTTP Communication Pakistan Java User Group 29. Polling Pakistan Java User Group 30. Long Polling Pakistan Java User Group 31. HTTP Streaming (Comet) Pakistan Java User Group 32. WebSocket to rescue TCP based, bi-directional, full-duplex messaging Capable of sending both UTF-8 string and binary frames in any direction at the same time Operating from a single socket across the web As part of HTML5, the application of the client interface will become native to all modern browsers To establish a Web Socket connection, the browser or client simply makes a request to the server for an upgrade from HTTP to a Web Socket Pakistan Java User Group 33. WebSocket to rescue Pakistan Java User Group 34. Pakistan Java User Group Reducing kilobytes of data to 2 bytesand reducing latency from 150ms to 50ms is far more than marginal. In fact, these two factors alone are enough to make Web Sockets seriously interesting to Google. 35. Java WebSocket Implementations Pakistan Java User Group 36. WebSocket API Connection Life Cycle @Singleton @WebSocketEndpoint(path=/chat) public class ChatServer { Set peers = ... @WebSocketOpen public void onOpen(Session peer) { peers.add(session); } @WebSocketClose public void onClose(Session session) { peers.remove(session); } ...

WebSocket API WebSocket Communication . . . @WebSocketMessage public void message(String message, Session client) throws IOException { for (Session session : peers) { if (!session.equals(client)) { session.getRemote().sendObject(message); } } } } Pakistan Java User Group 38. JPA 2.1 New Features The first spec to include new features is the JPA 2.1. The new features can be described with the following short list: Multi-Tenancy (Table discriminator) Stored Procedures Custom types and transformation methods - Query by Example Dynamic PU Definition Schema Generation (Additional mapping metadata to provide better standardization) Pakistan Java User Group 39. Servlet 3.1 New Features NIO.2 async I/O Leverage Java EE concurrency Security improvements Web Sockets support Ease-of-Development Pakistan Java User Group 40. Enteprise JavaBeans 3.2 New Features The scope of EJB 3.2 is intended to be relatively constrained in focusing on these goals. Incremental factorization (Interceptors) Further use of annotations to simplify the EJB programming model Proposed Optional: BMP/CMP Proposed Optional: Web Services invocation using RPC Pakistan Java User Group 41. Java EE 8 Plan JSON-B JCache More CDI/EJB alignment Cloud, PaaS, multitenancy/SaaS JMS.next()? JAX-RS.next()? Modularity? NoSQL? Action-oriented Web framework/HTML 5? Configuration API? Security?
