Comment on Maven and Jetty: A Perfect fit by Pablo

Nice article. The PermGen space error is not jetty’s fault, it’s your application that has a classloader leak. In one project I worked I managed to solve it and we were able to reload jetty as many times as we wanted.

Regards.

Nice one. Works well with Subclipse too, if you want to dispense with the command-line wizardry.

I totally agree with the first three statements. I have the same experience. The last one, however, is a self fulfilling prophecy: “Secondly in 99% of the applications the database is only a datastorage”, is going to be true if you keep the database out as long as possible. Because you do the design in your refactoring.
I think you should not keep any aspect out, and keep your options open: you can use a GPL like Java, or DSL like Drools or a PL/SQL. Also configuration and storage should be part of it. The requirements and experience of your developers and administrators determine the best solution, not just the developers.
TDD is not the same as Java programming, or is it?

Ran into the same problem once, deleting is a pain. Don’t have Linux but will check out the possibilities on Windows, good post!

Comment on The Power of ClassPathScanningCandidateComponentProvider by lvonk

Hi Matthew,

Thanks for replying. I have also used it to create a testsuite that has all Test classes on the classpath. This is very handy when you want to run all your tests in one go in Eclipse when you are working on a Maven multimodule build.

Very cool! I used this pattern to print out all of my TestNG tests within a certain group. Took all of 20 minutes, and now I know how many of my tests are broken at any given time

Nice blog Lars. I was triggered by the Shaving a Jak, but I’ll check up on the Job Methods. Sounds interesting!

Hi,

You may find the following website useful: TWI Service at http://www.trainingwithinindustry.net

Here you can find the original Job Methods manual and other materials. I also have a page about standard work if you are interested at this website.

Nice article!

I was getting annoyed by jetty reloading itself after every save operation. I immediately added the manual to my jetty configuration, but it didn’t work. After upgrading Jetty to the version you mentioned in your article everything worked fine.
