Portlets are Java-based Web components, managed by a portlet container, that process requests and generate dynamic content. Portals use portlets as pluggable user interface components that provide a presentation layer to information systems. The next step, after servlets in Web application programming, portlets enable modular and user-centric Web applications. The goal of JSR (Java Specification Request) 168, the Portlet Specification, is to enable interoperability between portlets and portals. This specification defines the contract between portlet and portlet container, and a set of portlet APIs that address personalization, presentation, and security. The specification also defines how to package portlets in portlet applications. Part 1 of this two-part series describes the Portlet Specification and explains its underlying concepts. In Part 2, the authors explain the specification's reference implementation and show some portlet examples. (3,300 words; August 1, 2003)

In this second and final article in Stefan Hepper and Stephan Hesmer's portlet series, the authors move beyond the Portlet API basics outlined in Part 1 to detail the API's reference implementation (RI), known as Pluto. They also offer a series of example portlets to illustrate how you can extend the API's standard functions. (1,700 words; September 5, 2003)

Ekagratha - Focus

19-Sep-03

The Pandava prince Arjuna is known for his wisdom of weaponary. In sanskrit in which Mahabharatha was written the word "weapon" rhymes with the word "science". A weapon does not exist with out a serious study of science. Weapons have personal names. Each weapon seem to have been a perosnification of years of study and knowledge. The tales of Mahabharatha are ripe with such abstractions. Perhaps that is a subject on its own.

Back to the original story. So the art of weapons being a science, Arjuna as a child was being taught by Drona.charya, the renowned teacher of the Kaurava Court. On a certain occasion the grand old man of the dynasty Bhishma drops by to check on his grand children. A demonstration of their skills ensued. The test of the time is to take aim at the eye of a bird sitting on a tall Oak.

The five of the Pandava princes and the 100 of the Kaurava Princes are lined up for the task with Arjuna being lined at the last intentionally although he was the middle of the 5 of the Pandava princes. As each of the students take aim, each one has a different interpretation of what they saw while aiming at the bird. One saw the blue sky, and one saw the branches and the leaves and one saw the bird itself etc.

When it is Arjunas turn, I am certain to his apparent dismay, saw nothing, that ofcourse except the eye in its complete magnificence. A transcendental vision perhaps. While he watches his aim the rest of the physical world seem to disolve into nothingness.

This unbridled focus is the essence of study. Intelligence is nothing but a manifestation of all absorbing interest in your subject. Everything else is bound to follow.

There is another important element to this story. It is not often that the attention gets drawn to the fact that Arjuna FORGOT the world. So focus and forgetfullness go hand in hand. Unless you are capable of forgetting you won't be able to focus. Not knowing this principle of forgetfullness seem to be the bane of many learners. To ignore the small and many for the big and one is important.

I am not an expert on sanskrit. But "Ekagratha" literally might mean "Focus or mind on ONE" (Eka - means one in sanskrit)

IT programmers and consultants spend a lot of time designing Middle Tier architectures. This practice is common in typed languages like c++, Java, and C#. This article examines the "qualities of a good Middle Tier architecture" so that an assessment can be drawn of these architectures. In conclusion the more popular Middle Tier solutions, namely, Stored Procedures, EJBs, COM+, and SQLJ are examined for their pros and cons.

Bringing the J2EE Cathedral to the Bazaar

While Sun is quite diligently planning, coordinating, and building infrastructure for building cathedrals around J2EE, Microsoft's .NET is poised to steal the marketplace and own the bazaar, as they did with VB and the component market in the client-server wars. We have some parallels to go by. While CORBA focused on rearing thoroughbreds, COM stole the market with a mule called VB.

The only way out of this quandary is to wake up and invite the J2EE cathedral to the bazaar. (Both words are used in a positive sense in this article.) I believe there is a lot at stake; not only for Sun and Java, but also for regular programmers like you and me. The potential of enabling programmers of all kinds to this work in this wonderful world of the Web is a prize worth contending for.

Over the past few years, much of the Java developer community has embraced the various pieces of J2EE, and in the process has given server-side programming the high status formerly enjoyed by client-side programming tools (GUI frameworks that include Swing). Now, the developer community is being challenged once more to weigh SOAP services to see if they can raise the bar for server-side programming.

The need for communications between applications across enterprises is well recognized; EDI has been serving this need for a number of years now. The Internet is providing a means for secure transactions between applications on a public network, bringing down the price point considerably. This makes electronic communication affordable for even smaller businesses.

Apply servlet filters for transaction management and logging

It has been a pet peeve of mine that one should not buy into an entire EJB solution just to gain the transparent (container-managed) transactional support for Java objects dealing with relational databases. One could inquire, what is the cost of implementing such a solution in the servlet tier itself? Because transactional support is valuable, whether the solution is distributed or not.

Typically, this transparent transactional support is accomplished by enrolling the active thread with a connection pool manager that the application relies upon for connections. The filtering mechanism is positioned to intercept the calls to an eventual servlet by registering the current thread with a connection pool manager in order to accomplish this. As one can see, the filtering mechanism is ideally suited for interposition, similar in concept to the EJB interposition of remote object calls from the EJB object to the bean instance.
