Hi folks,
I've been working with David B. in Apache OpenEJB.
I'm a beginner with Apache Geronimo and i'd like to get inputs
regarding the
OpenEJB/Geronimo link.
Actually, i did some bug fixes/enhancements in OpenEJB.
Some of them has been pushed to Geronimo but some bugs are still in
Geronimo.
Moreover, i committed this morning some code to upgrade CXF to the
latest
available distribution. Part of those changes are already available in
Geronimo.
I'd like to dig into Geronimo so any feedback is welcome.
Generally all the code is under here:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/geronimo/server/trunk/plugins/
openejb/
There is code elsewhere that pertains to OpenEJB, particularly in
regards to WebServices and CORBA.
Big focus on this particular class:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/geronimo/server/trunk/plugins/openejb/geronimo-openejb/src/main/java/org/apache/geronimo/openejb/OpenEjbSystemGBean.java
Let's see, where to start. As you might expect Geronimo handles all
classloader creation, anything jms/connector/jdbc related. All
persistence unit creation with a bit of cooperation required to
support EXTENDED persistence contexts. General deployment is handled
by Geronimo of course, with just EJB modules being handed to OpenEJB.
There's a bit of a touch point in JNDI with both Geronimo and OpenEJB
building a JNDI tree for each EJB -- the OpenEJB tree will for the
most part point to the Geronimo tree symlink style but contains extra
EJB Container provided things like EJBContext and so on.
There's a Geronimo implementation of the SecurityService interface
which is plugged in (see OpenEjbSystemGBean).
All client/server stuff is basically the same and unchanged.
That's a very generic response at least, no guarantees on
completeness :)
