J2EE SDK Deployment tool
Hi Guys, Can I use the J2EE SDK tool to create EAR files and then use these EAR files with Orion? If so can you guys point me in the direction of the docs, or provide some useful tips on doing this. thanx Robert
Re: J2EE SDK Deployment tool
Assembly tools, yes. These are standardized and the .ear you output is deployable in any J2EE platform. Deployment tools on the other hand are server-specific. Orion currently ships with assembly tools (earassembler being the main one) but deployment is still "file based". The admin console from where deployment will take place is under development but the release has been postponed to the Orion 1.1 release. 1.1 is not far off though, it will follow shortly after the "fcs" 1.0 release. So, for now: a) You can either use the Sun-RI assembly tools or Orion's tools for assembly (to make the .ear), both works. b) For deployment you'll have to edit server.xml etc until the admin console is released. I hope that clears things up. /Magnus Stenman, the Orion team - Original Message - From: "Robert Keith (UK)" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "Orion-Interest" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 03, 2000 12:09 PM Subject: J2EE SDK Deployment tool Hi Guys, Can I use the J2EE SDK tool to create EAR files and then use these EAR files with Orion?

Lost database connections using OrionServer?
Does Orionserver have a way for developers to reinitialize the data-sources.xml file and re-establish database connections without shutting down the entire server? This is a fault tolerance issue, having the database server go down behind your application. Our existing servlet apps have a connection pool that monitors the actual database server Unix box to help determine if connections should be re-initialized. Can/does Orionprovide this somehow? Thx Mike Fontenot - Object Systems Architect Polygon Network, Inc. Golden, Colorado
Finder methods
Congratulations on releasing v1.0.
It is a nice feature that orion writes the custom finders for CMP in some
cases. For those cases where it cannot, would it be possible to permit the
user to give it a hint? For example:
public interface FooHome extends EJBHome {
..
public Foo findByActiveId (int id) throws RemoteException,FinderException;
public static final String findByActiveId_sql = "$id=$1 and $active=1";
}
You do a similar thing for object/relational mapping.
Thanks,
Nick

RE: J2EE SDK Deployment tool
.ear is an enterprise application jar file that contains all the ejb jar files, the .war (web jar file) and the xml deployment descriptor for the application. The complete app is jarred into this one file. Here is the breakdown of all the jar files. 1. EJB Module ( .jar file) contains: - enterprise java bean - remote interface - home interface - primary key class, if entity bean - additional third party support classes not in J2EE - ejb-jar deployment descriptor. 2. Web Module (.war file) contains: - java classes for servlets and classes they depend on - jsp pages and helper classes - static documents ( sound files, HTML, gif, etc.) - Applets and their support classes - Web Deployment Descriptor. 3. Application Module (.ear file) contains: - all ejb .jar files - all .war files - Application Deployment Descriptor -Steve -Original Message- From: Jim Archer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, May 03, 2000 5:15 PM To: Orion-Interest Subject: Re: J2EE SDK Deployment tool I have a dumb question...

JPS fails J2EE portability test!
Thanks for your reply Magnus - its a real problem that the JPS fails J2EE portability - "write once, deploy anywhere" is a goal that the JPS team should aspire to. I will take it up with the APM Interest group! Thanks again Neville Burnell Business Manager Software -Original Message- From: Magnus Stenman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, 3 May 2000 8:54 PM To: Neville Burnell; Orion-Interest Cc: Orion-Interest Subject: Re: Orion 1.0 RC 1 released Hi, this is what we found during some inital analasys of the Estore (JPS): 1. errorpage.jsp does not import java.io (but implicitly uses it). 2. The web.xml for the web-app has an ejb-ref by the name of ejb/inventory which lists inventory as a session while it in fact is an entity. 3. Internal errors are not logged (swallowed by errorpage and not logged from there either). Severe bug for paranoid admins (disables the containers logging, ie alerting the admin by mail etc). 4. Internal errors sometimes lead to a simple "the user id is already taken" without any hint regarding the real error. 5. JSP Tags are used to store state outside of their own scope - This is a programmer error since tags are usually reused once they're out of scope (after doEndTag()) so the state will get corrupted. Cannot dig deeper at the moment I'm afraid as it'd involve rewriting too much of the Estore itself (which is not a top priority right now, we hope the JPS team fixes these issues by themselves). /Magnus Stenman, the Orion team - Original Message - From: "Neville Burnell" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "Orion-Interest" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: "Orion-Interest" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 03, 2000 1:44 AM Subject: RE: Orion 1.0 RC 1 released Hi Karl, Great Stuff. Now that Orion is RC1 and the JavaPetStore is FCS, could you publish instructions on how to deploy the JPS estore.ear on Orion pls? We have an app developed with the J2EE RI that is based on the JPS and I want to use Orion as our deployment server of choice, but my attempts to get the JPS deployed have Orion failed. Kind Regards Neville Burnell Business Manager Software -Original Message- From: Karl Avedal [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, 2 May 2000 10:11 PM To: Orion-Interest Subject: Orion 1.0 RC 1 released We are proud to announce the availablibilty of the first Orion 1.0 Release Candidate. As usual it contains many bug fixes and also many enhancements. A few productivity related improvements worth mentioning are: Auto-compilation of web-components. Now all web-code will be automatically compiled if development mode is set to true. (http://www.orionserver.com/docs/orion-web.xml.html) shows the location of the development attribute). For example, this means that you can make a servlet, MyServlet.java, put it in the right dir, and the server will automatically pick it up and compile it. This goes for tag extension libraries, etc. as well. Auto-generation of common custom finders (for CMP beans). If you have finders called findAll() or findByX() (where X can be anything), the finders will be automatically generated for finding all enties (findAll()) or find the entities matching a specific field-value (findByX()). As some of you might have noticed, Orion now also provide full JSP line information in stack traces and compilation errors. You are not only given the line number for the generted class, but for the actual JSP file. The Orion team

Hi, Enterprise Application aRchive. WAR is a Web ... These are in JAR format with special locations for components. Hope this helps, Eric Jim Archer wrote: I have a dumb question...
