Big additions to 3 from 2.4 (I may forget something...) -cmp2 -clustering -more flexible deployment and classloading system Maybe not so big additions: -web service support -corba support -improved jca and database connectivity support. Of these the big reason to look at 3 first is perhaps the cmp2 support. cmp1 tends to make it look like you can only see one db row at a time, cmp2 gives you "detail table" views of stuff. If you want to look at the source code and compile it yourself I highly recommend 3. I can't figure out how to compile 2.4 any longer;-) As for the book/ JBoss 3 race... we're trying, bad marketing or no;-) david jencks On 2002.04.16 21:11:44 -0400 Phil Shrimpton wrote: > On Tuesday 16 April 2002 23:35, Dmitri Colebatch wrote: > > Hi, > > > Are you entering the world of JBoss from another EJB server, or fresh? > > 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 > > I am more concernern with documentation etc., which is very important > when > you are getting into something new.

JBoss 2.4 supports (as I understand it) - EJB 1.1 (SLSB, SFSB, CMP 1.x, BMP) - some of EJB 2.0 (MDB, local interfaces) JBoss 3.0 adds - the rest of EJB 2.0 (mainly CMP2) I'm sure there are more differences, but thats the key differences I think. > > As I understand it, everything in 2.4 is also in 3.0, but there've > > been several significant architecture changes. > > Are these on the 'inside' or 'outside'? inside, but as a result the configuration has changed. In 2.4 you have jboss.jcml which defines the services. In 3.0 you have a deploy directory that contains a whole bunch of foo-service.xml files, which each contain configuration for the foo service. > > also - the book covers 2.4, which would be a good argument for starting > > there. > > This is what I currently favour, but it would be good to know the differences > between 2 and 3. I can't belive they are two great, especially as the 2.4 > 'book' is not published here in the UK for another few weeks, and it would be > a bad marketing effort to release a new, incompatible version before the book > for the previous version is out. from a developer's viewpoint, you will code pretty similar stuff, as either way, you're coding EJBs. Of course there are changes between the 1.1 and 2.0 specs, but you can deploy 1.1 EJBs on a 2.0 server, so dont be too worried. Again - the main difference is in CMP2 and relationships. Admitably, this is a big difference, but I'd advice getting your head around other things first anyway. Also - have a look at XDoclet (http://sf.net/projects/xdoclet) as a useful development tool that has strong support for JBoss. hth dim ___ JBoss-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-user

This is what I currently favour, but it would be good to know the differences between 2 and 3. I can't belive they are two great, especially as the 2.4 'book' is not published here in the UK for another few weeks, and it would be a bad marketing effort to release a new, incompatible version before the book for the previous version is out.

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.
