JBoss Tools 3.1 CR1 released
JBoss Tools 3.1 CR1 have been made available to celebrate the new year!
JBoss JCA 1.0.0.Alpha7 is out
I'm happy to announce the 7th developer snapshot of the JBoss JCA project.
The Weld team has recently collaborated with members of the community, most notably Steven Boscarine, to provide you with a set of Maven archetypes that get you developing with CDI and JSF 2 in a jiffy. Today we are announcing that the 1.0.0-BETA1 version of the archetypes are available in the Maven Central Repository. Consider it a holiday present from us ;)
JSF 2 and CDI with Netbeans and Glassfish
Andy Gibson has written a nice tutorial to help you get started with JSF 2 and CDI using Netbeans and Glassfish. It's great to see that both Netbeans and Intellij 9 already have excellent support for Java EE 6.
Java EE 6 Final Release
As I'm sure you've all seen, Java EE 6 has gone final. You can now download the Final Release of the Contexts and Dependency Injection, Bean Validation, Java Persistence API 2 and Java Servlet 3 specifications from jcp.org, and read the linked javadoc for the entire platform. It's also a good chance to check out the Java API for RESTful Web Services specification, which now includes CDI integration, if you havn't already.
After Devoxx 09, I never stopped to look back for published feedback about the 3 hour JSF 2 university session (download slides) that Andy Schwartz (Oracle), Pete Muir and I presented there. I finally did, and to my pleasant surprise, the feedback was very positive.
