September 25th, 2007 Radim Marek

Either setting up clustered environment for development/testing, need to isolate different application, or necessity of running different version of JBoss AS on the same machine. No matter what is the reason for running multiple instances of JBoss AS, for most users it’s quite a daunting task.

JBoss Seam 2.0 CR1 Released

September 20th, 2007 Radim Marek

Recently, I’ve spent some time playing with JBoss Seam. Interested by its development model, supplemental to Java EE 5, I’ve been using latest trunk from CVS for upcoming release.

Today, I was pleasantly suprised to find an announcement about the release candidate of upcoming version 2.0, complete with list of new features. RedHat/JBoss definitely seems to be dedicating a lot of energy to this project.

Sadly Michal Yuan, author of the excellent book JBoss Seam: Simplicity and Power Beyond Java EE, is leaving the project (updated: not project, but only RedHat as an employee).

It’s alive 2.0

September 19th, 2007 Radim Marek

Five months later and my blog is back. Again! To go through all the reasons, why the previous attempt wasn’t the right one, would sound as not very good joke. So, I’ll spare you.

In order to be able to post regularly I have decided to dedicate laststation.net to the topic that’s closest to my every day life - software development, based predominantly on Java/J2EE technologies. My target audience are my friends and people around me who share similar interest. In last couple of years I’ve enjoyed passing some of my knowledge to others, so I hope I’ll manage to do the same with this blog.

Thanks for your visit and wish me luck!

PS: If you’re looking for my photography (totally neglected in last weeks), check my Flickr Photostream. The rest of the stuff is irreversibly gone and without plan to return in any form.
