JUGerNaut Upcoming Courses in Maryland USA
We are proud to announce that we'll be holding another peer-based-instruction group for programmers in the state of Maryland, USA. If you're interested in joining our organization, please e-mail me. This term we'll be focusing on Servlets, JSP's and XSLT's using Cocoon. If you'd like to start a JUGerNaut group and are not in Maryland, please contact me for the Syllabus and requirements for being a JUGerNaut group. Michael Van CEO, JUGerNaut PS. Mr. Birchfield, thanks for the database connection pooling bean. I hope you're doing well.
Re: A thank you to Orion from the Annapolis Java User Group
Mike, Thank you for your response. As you said, this course is unique. However, the nature of the course is not in the printed material, rather in the collaboration of software engineers. For example, on week 7, the subject of servlet data-base connection pooling is introduced. However, the participants get the suggested reading material for that subject (Wrox' Advanced Java Server Programming, non-EJB version), and do the tutorials in that book. For the XSL/XSLT portion (week 12), the subject and suggested reading are introduced, but the learning happens in the assignment and peer-discussion. This isn't different than any other course, but because of the reliance of copywritten materials and in-depth peer-discussion, it wouldn't fit well with the excellent tutorials on the Jollem site. Instead, it compliments the existing tutorials by offering an educational roadmap in the syllabus, and the structure of deadlines and assignments.

It sounds like you've built something quite unique as a tutorial that teaches people the basics of servlets, XML/XSLT, EJBs etc? (I help run OrionSupport and we'd be happy to put it up / host it there) It would serve as a nice compliment to the jollem.com tutorials. -mike -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Michael Van Sent: Wednesday, February 07, 2001 5:17 PM To: Orion-Interest Subject: A thank you to Orion from the Annapolis Java User Group To Orion and the people who offer support for this product: THANK YOU! My name is Michael Van Geertruy and I am the founder and CEO of the Annapolis MD Java User Group, JUGerNaut (501-c-4). For the last 15 weeks I've been teaching a course in this user group called "Java and the Internet", using the OrionServer as a teaching platform. That is, each participant in the course was required to download a version of Orion at home, and then use OrionServer for thier work in the course. I chose Orion Server for a number of reasons. Most notably: * It is free for use as a development environment. * It is a TRUE implementation of the J2EE platform. * Its CPU footprint is very small. * It has a robust implementation of servlets. * It has easy to understand, XML-based configuration files. * It contains xalen and xerces, which allowed us to touch on XSLT's. On behalf of the JUGerNaut organization, I would like to thank you for offering this tool for use in our development environment. Without it, we would not have been able to offer this training for FREE (the participants paid no money to attend the course). Indeed, many of the participants had prior experience programming EJB's and commented on how superior your product implements the J2EE when compared to Sybase, Oracle, and BEA-Weblogic. Oral course surveys revealed that the participants in the course felt more secure with the Java technologies of servlets, JSP's, CMP, and BMP using a home-grown database-connection-pooling bean. Additionally, this course produced an EJB that will be used by a local charity organization (saving them thousands of dollars in development costs). Without Orion Server, the quality of training that we gave and the direct impact this program had on our community would never have happened. By offering this training for free to all participants, and by training them using Orion Server, we are growing EJB specialists in Maryland who are partial to using Orion Server. This translates to experienced engineers expressing an affinity for Orion Server in the workplace over other competing technologies. I sincerely thank you and your organization for providing us this invaluable resource. Thank you, Michael L. Van CEO, JUGerNaut [EMAIL PROTECTED] PS. We are holding a graduation ceremony for this course and others on March 14, 2001. After the ceremony, we are offering open enrollment into JUGerNaut (free) and thus, to a slew of courses we will be offering (free to all participants).

Re: URGENT! jsp file size limit
This is just a toss in from a methodology pundit, but if your JSP is over 70K, is there perhaps something you could do better with a class or EJB? Remember, you CAN mix classes with EJB's. In the Orion Server course I teach, I regularly create a bean that does connection pooling as a method to instruct JNDI. Of course, the basics of this bean is found in WROX, but it works pretty well. Anyway, why not try and take some of that jsp code and put it into a bean?
