-----Original Message----- From: O'Reilly Network Newsletter [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, March 14, 2002 7:21 PM To: [email protected] Subject: ONJava.com Newsletter: JSP Standard Tag Libraries O'REILLY NETWORK'S ONJava.com NEWSLETTER -------------------------------------------------- The Independent Source for Enterprise Java ============================================================ Sponsored by Apple Developer Connection Learn about the future of Java and Mac OS X at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), May 6-10 in San Jose, California. Participate in more than a hundred in-depth sessions and hands-on labs presented by Apple's technical architects and lead engineers. Register by April 14 and save $300 at http://developer.apple.com/wwdc2002/. ============================================================= Dear Reader, This week, ONJava's very own Sue Spielman returns with the latest installment in her highly acclaimed JSP and Servlets column. In it she introduces JSP Standard Tag Libraries (JSTL), a relatively new and highly useful JSP specification. The base design philosophy of JSTL is to provide page authors with a script-free environment. JSTL is still in early access release, but that doesn't mean that you shouldn't start paying attention to it now. JSTL is being developed under the JCP in the JSR-052 expert group, with the purpose of working towards a common and standard set of custom tags. Also this week, Joseph Shelby concludes his two-part series on JAXB and Ant, both available in Sun's recently announced Java Web Services Developer Pack (WSDP). In part one, Joseph looked at some advanced uses of Jakarta Ant's build tool, like automatically executing xjc, the code-from-XML generation tool used for JAXB; but he found that Ant has some minor flaws in handling one-to-many file dependencies. There are, however, some fixes for some of Ant's build-time dependency issues mentioned in his article. And finally this week, ONJava.com presents the last of three book excerpts from Chapter 8 Business Logic of Building Java Enterprise Applications, Vol I: Architecture. This installment focuses on issues of statefulness and statelessness with the Forethought business logic introduced in the previous excerpts. That's all for this week.

According to CNET News.com: "Legal experts describe Sun Microsystems' lawsuit against Microsoft as very aggressive and expansive, going well beyond anything pursued by federal and state trustbusters. And in many important respects, they say, the suit could be tough to win in its current form." http://www.oreillynet.com/cs/weblog/view/wlg/1201 *** HP Web Services HP plans to announce its HP-WSP (HP Web Services Platform) 2.0 at JavaOne. It is touted as a modular, standards-based system for developing Web services. With the HP-Compaq merger, will it be Java or .NET-based? I suspect .NET in the long-term. http://www.idg.net/ic_828987_6134_1-3523.html *** JavaOne Frenzy Kicks Into High Gear As we get closer and closer to the kickoff of JavaOne, its hard to express the volume of promotional mail Im receiving from vendors wholl be at the show.

But the good news is theres going to be a lot to see and explore at this Show. http://www.oreillynet.com/cs/weblog/view/wlg/1198 *** Free Software from HP, Still? Late last year, CNET News.com reported that Hewlett-Packard plans to attack BEA Systems and IBM in the market for Java Web application server software that runs e-business transactions. Given the HP- Compaq merger, can we still expect to see this? My hunch is no. http://www.oreillynet.com/cs/weblog/view/wlg/1193 *** Sun Suit Excerpts Sun filed a private antitrust suit against Microsoft, which seeks $1 billion in damages.
