6:30pm Java Best Practices Part 2 - Timothy Fagan
Following on from last meeting's interactive dicussion on Java programming best practices, Timothy will tackle two more important, and sometimes controversial standards that you and your company may want to adopt in order to improve Java programs
7:20pm:
=================================================
A Quick Tour of Contexts and Dependency Injection for Java EE
=================================================
This session is a quick tour of Contexts and Dependency Injection for Java EE (CDI).
This session will cover features such as injection, automatic context management, scoping, qualifiers, naming, producers, disposers, registry/lookup, stereotypes, interceptors, decorators, events and portable extensions. We will discuss the relationship between this critical Java EE 6 API covering generic dependency injection services and the rest of the platform including Dependency Injection for Java (JSR 330), managed beans, EJB 3.1, JSF 2 and JPA 2.
We will also cover the goals, status and road-map for major CDI implementations such as JBoss' Weld, Caucho's CanDI and Apache's OpenWebBeans. Please do feel free to bring your questions, comments and suggestions.
Speaker

Intro presentation: Java Best Practices (part 1) by Timothy Fagan. (6:30pm)
Featured guest speaker: Mark Pollack (7:30pm)
Title "What's new in Spring 3.0"
Abstract: This talk provides an overview of the key features introduced in Spring 3.0 such as the Spring Expression Language, additional annotation-based configuration options, a code-centric way of declaring Spring bean definitions, and comprehensive REST support. This talk also provide an analysis and overview of the integration points between the Java EE6 APIs and Spring.

October General Meeting - NYC Java Meetup
A very special guest speaker, coming all the way from the island of Crete, yes none other than Dr Heinz Kabutz will make a special appearance! This renown master Java specialist gave us an excellent presentation on the secrets of concurrency
two years ago and this time will speak on the intricacies of reflection.
In addition to his appearance at our group, he will also offer a Java Specialist
Master Course on November 10-13 as part of Sun's Extreme Learning Workshop
series here in NYC!Speaker: Dr Heinz Kabutz
Topic: "Reflection Madness"
"In this presentation, we will look at some advanced uses of reflection to delegate method calls automatically, to determine where we are being called from and to create new enum values dynamically for unit test purposes, including modifying the switch statements on-the-fly. We will look at how we can use the stack information to determine the class type in a static context. We will demonstrate how Externalizable allows the private state of an object to be read and then modified. Lastly we will demonstrate how we can construct new objects without calling any of the available constructors. This talk will be aimed at the advanced Java specialist who does not shy away from reflection code. Topics from the Java Specialists Newsletter and related research."
Dr. Heinz Kabutz is best known as the creator of the Java Specialists' Newsletter, targeted to expert Java Developers. Since its inception in November 2000 the newsletter has grown to include an audience of more than 50,000 programmers in 120 countries and become one of the most widely distributed, independent Java Newsletters in the world. Dr. Kabutz uses the experience gained "in the field" to write articles in his publication and he was chosen as a Sun Java Champion.
A special thanks to Sun Microsystems for hosting location.

Session Title: Java EE 6: A Community Update
Abstract:
This session is the latest update on the progress of Java EE 6 (JSR 317). The aim of the session is both to inform as well as encourage feedback.
Java EE 6 brings a number of profound changes to the platform. It drops a handful of outdated APIs, breaks up the monolithic platform into profiles and aims to add extensibility points as well as adding useful enhancements like standardizing JNDI naming. We will explore all of these changes in this session. We will also briefly overview some of the most important JSRs being developed under the Java EE 6 umbrella such as JSF 2.0, WebBeans, EJB 3.1, JPA 2.0, JAX-RS and Servlet 3.0.
A central goal of this session is open-ended discussion, so please do feel free to bring your questions, comments and ideas.

November Topic: EJB 3.1: A Community Update
6:30pm 76 Ninth Avenue (between 15th/16th St), 13th floor - RSVP required - email garyrusso @ hotmail.com
Abstract:
This session explores the latest features proposed in EJB 3.1 (JSR 318). The aim of the session is both to inform as well as encourage feedback.
EJB 3.0 was a radical transformation geared towards usability. EJB 3.1 aims to go further down the path of simplicity while adding a number of useful features. In this session we will see all of the features that have been discussed in the expert group so far such as optional interfaces, singleton beans with concurrency control, annotation-driven cron-like scheduling, asynchronous processing support, easier deployment, as well as EJB lite. We will also take a look at the features still being discussed such as standardized JNDI naming as well as support for running EJB 3.1 in Java SE environments.
The session will leave time for open-ended discussion, so feel free to bring your thinking hat!

Topic: Clojure for the Semantic Web Exploration
Meetup Track: This Session is hands on and technical
Speakers: Rich Hickey and David Siegel
Rich Hickey will join forces with the New York Semantic Web Meetup to extend Clojure for the use in the development of Semantic Web applications.
http://clojure.org
Clojure is a dynamic programming language that targets the Java Virtual Machine. It is designed to be a general-purpose language, combining the approachability and interactive development of a scripting language with an efficient and robust infrastructure for multithreaded programming. Clojure is a compiled language - it compiles directly to JVM bytecode, yet remains completely dynamic. Every feature supported by Clojure is supported at runtime. Clojure provides easy access to the Java frameworks, with optional type hints and type inference, to ensure that calls to Java can avoid reflection.
Clojure is a dialect of Lisp, and shares with Lisp the code-as-data philosophy and a powerful macro system. Clojure is predominantly a functional programming language, and features a rich set of immutable, persistent data structures. When mutable state is needed, Clojure offers a software transactional memory system and reactive Agent system that ensure clean, correct, multithreaded designs.
Session prep:
Introduction to Clojure (from June's General Meeting below)
http://blip.tv/file/9...
June General Meeting:
Topic: Clojure for Java Programmers
Presentation now available online (with audio): (Thanks Rich!)
http://clojure.blip.tv/file/982823
Speaker: Rich Hickey
Clojure http://clojure.org
is a dynamic functional programming
language for the JVM. This talk will provide an overview of Clojure,
including a gentle introduction to its syntax for those with no prior
experience with Lisp, an overview of features, and a discussion of
Java integration. Also covered will be Clojure's approach to
functional programming, immutability, and concurrency and how they
help solve some of the problems faced by Java programmers using
threads and locks today.Bio:
Rich Hickey, the author of Clojure, is an independent software designer, consultant and application architect with over 20 years of experience in all facets of software development. Rich has worked on scheduling systems, broadcast automation, audio analysis and fingerprinting, database design, yield management, exit poll systems, and machine listening, in a variety of languages.
