This site crashes more than a 16-year old trying to pick up the ladies. You can check out all the errors in my catalina.out (3+ MB) file (snapshot from last night). Mostly OutOfMemory errors causing the issues. I'm going to try and configure jikes to run as my JSP compiler, we'll see if that helps. I'd like to try it locally first (on my Win2K machine), but it looks like I have to compile it with the -encoding option to make it work. Ughhh. Why don't they have an encoding-enabled download!?
I got this notification from the Denver JUG mailing list:
The Certification team is in the process of creating a NEW certification exam!
"Sun Certified Business Component Developer for the Java 2 Platform, Enterprise
Edition"
This certification is for programmers specializing in leveraging the Java 2
Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EEtm) technologies used to develop server-side
components that encapsulate the business logic of an application. Prior to
beginning the Sun Certified Business Component Developer program, you must be a
Sun Certified Programmer for the Java Platform (any edition).
I'm wondering if a "Business Component Developer" is a fancy name for an EJB Developer? Remember the Web Component Developer
(Servlets/JSPs)?
James Mitchell has contributed a modified version of Chuck Cavaness' Beer4All Shopping cart demo to the Struts' SourceForge Project. If you're looking for an example of using OJB with Struts, this is probably your best bet. From the struts-user mailing list:
Ok, just got off the phone with Chuck. He said he doesn't mind, so here is
the version that I have:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/struts/
Note - This is a simple webapp and not all the features have been
implemented. I will continue to improve the codebase over the next few
months, but this is a "use at your own risk" sample application.
To deploy "as is", you will need to configure your database connection
(repository.xml) and create a database (or change the config) called 'ojb'
with a user 'ojb' and password 'ojb'. Next execute the sql.sql against the
new database to create the necessary data and internal tables (OJB).
Use you best judgment to deploy on your container. I can help if using
Tomcat, Resin, or JBoss/Tomcat. Personally, I use JBoss/Tomcat so the
unzipped/exploded war should deploy if you extract it to
server/default/deploy.
Have fun!!!

BTW, there are quite a few Hibernate example apps (appfuse, hibernate and struts-resume) at the Struts SF project as well.
