Using NoSQL with EclipseLink and JPA?

Using NoSQL with JPA, EclipseLink and Java EE from Reza Rahman

Default CDI Enablement in Java EE 7

CDI provides control over component scanning via the 'bean-discovery-mode' attribute. This attribute has three possible values:

• annotated - loosely translated, means that only components with a class-level annotation are processed.
• all - all components are processed, just like they were in Java EE 6 with the explicit beans.xml.
• none - CDI is effectively disabled.

Stress-Testing Java EE 6 Applications Without Stress

About movie:
In the context of Java EE 6, unit tests are nice but worthless. Unit and integration tests execute chunks of the business logic in a single thread. Back-end resources and shared states are simulated with mocks. After the initial deployment, your application will never be executed again in a single thread. Strangely enough, most applications aren't load-tested until shortly before the deadline and are put into production regardless of the results. This session shows how to continuously stress-test your Java EE applications with open source tools and lots of fun!

Hibernate - Callback methods

Callbacks Methods: It is often useful for the application to react to certain events that occur inside the persistence mechanism.

Type	Description
@PrePersist	Executed before the entity manager persist operation is actually executed or cascaded. This call is synchronous with the persist operation.
@PreRemove	Executed before the entity manager remove operation is actually executed or cascaded. This call is synchronous with the remove operation.
@PostPersist	Executed after the entity manager persist operation is actually executed or cascaded. This call is invoked after the database INSERT is executed.
@PostRemove	Executed after the entity manager remove operation is actually executed or cascaded. This call is synchronous with the remove operation.
@PreUpdate	Executed before the database UPDATE operation.
@PostUpdate	Executed after the database UPDATE operation.
@PostLoad	Executed after an entity has been loaded into the current persistence context or an entity has been refreshed.

Example

@Entity
@EntityListeners(class=Audit.class)
public class Cat {
    @Id private Integer id;
    private String name;
    private Calendar dateOfBirth;
    @Transient private int age;
    private Date lastUpdate;
    //getters and setters

    /**
     * Set my transient property at load time based on a calculation,
     * note that a native Hibernate formula mapping is better for this purpose.
     */
    @PostLoad
    public void calculateAge() {
        Calendar birth = new GregorianCalendar();
        birth.setTime(dateOfBirth);
        Calendar now = new GregorianCalendar();
        now.setTime( new Date() );
        int adjust = 0;
        if ( now.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR) - birth.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR) < 0) {
            adjust = -1;
        }
        age = now.get(Calendar.YEAR) - birth.get(Calendar.YEAR) + adjust;
    }
}

public class LastUpdateListener {
    /**
     * automatic property set before any database persistence
     */
    @PreUpdate
    @PrePersist
    public void setLastUpdate(Cat o) {
        o.setLastUpdate( new Date() );
    }

The Java EE 6 - Using Scopes

Using Scopes

For a web application to use a bean that injects another bean class, the bean needs to be able to hold state over the duration of the user’s interaction with the application. The way to define this state is to give the bean a scope. You can give an object any of the scopes described in following table, depending on how you are using it.

Scope	Annotation	Duration
Request	@RequestScoped	A user’s interaction with a web application in a single HTTP request.
Session	@SessionScoped	A user’s interaction with a web application across multiple HTTP requests.
Application	@ApplicationScoped	Shared state across all users’ interactions with a web application.
Dependent	@Dependent	The default scope if none is specified; it means that an object exists to serve exactly one client (bean) and has the same lifecycle as that client (bean).
Conversation	@ConversationScoped	A user’s interaction with a JavaServer Faces application, within explicit developer-controlled boundaries that extend the scope across multiple invocations of the JavaServer Faces lifecycle. All long-running conversations are scoped to a particular HTTP servlet session and may not cross session boundaries.

The first three scopes are defined by both JSR 299 and the JavaServer Faces API. The last two are defined by JSR 299.
