By ActiveMQ, Apache TomEE, Jakarta EE, Java EE, MicroProfile, Open Source, Tomcat, TomEE No Comments

This blog aims at giving some pointers in order to address the challenge related to the switch from `javax` to `jakarta` namespace. This is one of the biggest changes in Java of the latest 20 years. No doubt. The entire ecosystem is impacted. Not only Java EE or Jakarta EE Application servers, but also libraries of any kind (Jackson, CXF, Hibernate, Spring to name a few). For instance, it took Apache TomEE about a year to convert all the source code and dependencies to the new `jakarta` namespace.

Configuring JDBC in TomEE

By Apache TomEE, Jakarta EE, Java EE, TomEE, Tutorials 4 Comments

A question that comes up frequently in the TomEE community and with Tomitribe’s support customers is “How do I configure a JDBC driver?” There are a number of ways to do this, but I’m going to talk about the two most common methods. You can configure a JDBC driver for the entire TomEE application server or for a specific webapp. Regardless of which way you choose to do it, the configuration syntax is the same. NOTE: You can also configure a JDBC DataSource directly within an @Resource annotation but this is not recommended and is not covered here. See the…

By Apache TomEE, Jakarta EE, Java EE, TomEE No Comments

Tomitribe support customers often use Java Singleton EJBs, and while powerful the sequence of startup and initialize can be confusing.
