• Committer on Eclipse Persistence Services project - EclipseLink

Profession: Overly enthusiastic and optimistic Enterprise Software Developer

Currently working with Telus Health | backed by Emergis on their Oacis since April 2011 after a very good 5 years with Oracle Corporation on their TopLink product and the Eclipse Foundation on their EclipseLink product. Specialized in Application Server Container deployments, JMX and the Metamodel API in the latest JSR-317 JPA 2.0 API RI for the JEE6 specification.

Concurrency Issues

UnOfficial

• Investigate EJB 3.x equivalent to cascade=CascadeType.SAVE_UPDATE? Is MERGE better than PERSIST? - see https://forum.hibernate.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=963665&start=0 and http://forum.springsource.org/showthread.php?t=85108
  • How can we use @PrivateOwned - discussed this with Guy - we need to managed the non-defaults for all CascadeType=, @OrphanRemoval=false and the opposite @PrivateOwned=false
  • Then respond to http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=2152045&tstart=0
• What exactly are the differences between @EmbeddedId and @IdClass?

Deferred but Very Important

• I would like to get some scheduled time to finally resolve the remaining workarounds for WebLogic 10.3.3.0 and JPA 2.0 for EclipseLink, Hibernate and Spring in http://wiki.eclipse.org/EclipseLink/Development/JPA_2.0/weblogic#TODO

Pending

• NetBeans and -javaagent

Raised

Bugs and Enhancements I am interested in

• The following have my interest, I may or may not be involved in the solution, or I may have the issue myself. Usually I add myself to the CC list on the Bug or ER.
• 336596: java.util.NoSuchElementException when using @ElementCollection for enum in Embeddable
• 336599: EclipseLink2.1.2: metadata processing: use of custom property annotaton causes: "Mapping annotations cannot be applied to fields or properties that have a @Transient specified."

Experimental

• 20110209: Distributed JPA application using multiple SE clients connected to a single EE server using various EJB/RMI, JMS, JAX-RS and WebServices technologies. Use this distributed framework to hammer the JTA container managed persistence context and observe how it handles concurrency contention.
• Concurrency
• Thread safety
• Mixed JSF/Spring/AJAX/EJB framework artifacts
• Hibernate JPA and WebLogic

To Review

• Extensibility - Dynamic Data Model (required before implementing Multi-Tenancy
• Multi-Tenancy or SaaS Features and eventually PaaS aka EC2 a quick google search will come up with Analysis work done by Frederick Chong, Gianpaolo Carraro, Roger Wolter and Paul Henry at Microsoft in 2006

  • Note that JAX-RS 1.1 and the rest of the WebServices API's are not in Web Profile - they are still accessible via the EJB container We will need to see how we work as a container managed persistence unit in this new environment.

• Everybody would like to optimize computations in their spare time - but using all available capacity of your servers is not an easy thing to do. Don't let let your multicore processor sit idle or use a small percentage of it's potential - use threads and push your processor to it's limit of parallel computation and use of electrical resources. Pass this very interesting graphic to all your Java, C++, C, Assembly and even Smalltalk friends. Don't worry about locking, deadlock, thread contention, thread scheduling, finished threads waiting on slower threads, data corruption, queuing, synchronization, concurrency issues, data parallel work distribution/merging, heat dissipation, and electicity usage - as everything can be solved.
