Greetings...

Sometimes really impressive projects get overlooked because it's not
immediately clear that you need them. Jini is sort of a poster child for
this, presaging both service-oriented architecture and discovery-based
networking (a la Apple's Bonjour) by several years. Another one of these
projects is JBoss Seam, which addresses a problem you probably don't
realize you have until you've settled on five or six different frameworks
and ask, "how am I going to make this stuff work together?" Chances are,
you'll push the interactions into your business logic, creating
inadvertent couplings you'd be hard pressed to back out of. JBoss Seam
offers an alternative to this approach, and this week, we're reprising an
article that will get you up to speed on Seam.

Combining, say, EJB and JSF sounds like a great idea. Until you find out
that their union "is not yet realized within the Java Enterprise Edition
(EE) 5.0 framework. In plain Java EE, there is still a significant amount
of glue code necessary to use both JSF and EJB 3.0 when building a web
application--even more, if you add BPM to the recipe for a great
application." In the article "JBoss Seam," Thomas Heute offers an
alternative, allowing you to create "contexts" in which you can you can
store data from one framework for use by another.

Working with certificates and keystores? "Public Key Cryptography
Standards #12 (PKCS#12) specifies a portable format for storing and
transporting user or server private keys, public keys, and certificates.
It is a binary format, and these files are also known as PFX files.
Developers often need to transform PFX files to some different format,
such as PEM or JKS, so that they can be used by standalone Java clients
using SSL communication, or WebLogic Server." The dev2dev article "Using
PFX and PEM Certificate Formats with Keystores" shows you how to export
data from a PFX file and create files in other formats from them.

In this week's feature article from java.net, Denis Pilipchuk looks at
"Using JAAS in Java EE and SOA Environments": "Many enterprises with
heavy investments into Java technologies have already developed
sophisticated JAAS-based security stacks, both on Java SE and EE
platforms. Therefore, the task at hand is to define ways for taking such
JAAS-based security services to the next level, to help in linking SOA
services."
