Hi Phil, Are you entering the world of JBoss from another EJB server, or fresh? If you're entering fresh, and learning EJB, then I dont imagine the differences between 2.4 and 3.0 would bother you too much at first (ie, just use 2.4 and get your head around that). However if you really want to get into advanced features, then I suppose that would be an argument for 3.0. As I understand it, everything in 2.4 is also in 3.0, but there've been several significant architecture changes.
also - the book covers 2.4, which would be a good argument for starting there. hth dim ----- Original Message ----- From: "Phil Shrimpton" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, April 17, 2002 10:23 AM Subject: [JBoss-user] Differences between 2.x and 3.x? > Hi, > > Just entering the merry world of JBoss, mainly for learning and enjoyment.
