> particularly with respect to resource injection using attributes

Oops, I meant to say annotations, not attributes.
David:

I look forward to reading your book.

Although I am very experienced with distributed technologies, I am a newbie to J2EE, and I am concerned with the amount of 'magic' that J2EE 5 seems to support/require, particularly with respect to resource injection using attributes. This approach is certainly succinct and simple -- when it works. However, if you screw up, my limited experience has been that it is difficult to debug the problem by any method other than inspection. Does Netbeans provide any support in this respect, and if so, is it covered in your book?

Sun pushed Jini like crazy but only a few people seemed to catch on to what they were talking about, so I don't know if you could say it was "mis-marketed." Some ideas just are before "their time."



While some of the ideas of Jini were before their time, Sun also mismarketed it. They pitched it as an infrastructure for embedded devices and was completely mute on how it could be used in enterprise applications. This was especially bad since at the time Sun was about 2 years away from having a small footprint JVM that would be necessary to use Jini as an infrastructure for small devices.

If you follow the traffic on the Jini forums, it appears that most of the developers are using Jini (and JavaSpaces) for enterprise type applications.
