First, I must start by saying that I have before me the print version of the newer green book and am surprised equally positive of building and editing. The book is aimed at "JEE-users", but reading is particularly enjoyable when one has gone through the ordeal J2EE itself. Sometimes one feels at the possible become with JEE now "legal" solutions like in Aladdin's cave. Java EE Patterns leads in the first part of a few basic concepts and patterns, will be discussed in more detail later on. Very successful is the part about the JEE no longer current "Retired" Patterns and possible alternatives / special cases. This is followed by a detailed introduction to some "Infrastructural Patterns and Utilities". Here then wakes the practitioner in the reader at the latest. A small section on pragmatic JEE architectures completes the work. My goal is to win through the acquisition of new impressions of the book Java EE and get momentum for future projects, I was able to achieve in any case. The book is pleasantly written legibly in stages. These solutions make it feel like trying out. The source code is reprinted useful doses.
Did not bother me really little. Firstly, JPA is a little too much glorified, although the author mentions, for example in the next sentence, the inherent esotericism the save () - method (doing nothing, but actually everything :-)), a little more distance and critical consideration would have done well. Also abdominal pain gives me the name recycling at "Gateway". All ergoogelten of mine sites to "gateway" in the meaning shown can be attributed to Mr. Bien. I suppose therefore that he invented it. It appears highly questionable to reuse the name of the old-old-established Fowler patterns in this way. "Object-gate" might have been the better name for this interesting pattern.
