Using dependency injection and aspect-oriented mechanisms like interceptors allow us to separate cross-cutting-concerns in our Java enterprise application, to control global aspects of our application and to avoid boilerplate code. In the following short tutorial we’re going to create an aspect-oriented logger to protocol the initiating user, class and method called and the parameters passed to the method and finally we’re adding this interceptor to a sample RESTful web-service by adding a simple annotation. ...

Aspect oriented programming and the definition of cross-cutting-concerns is made easy in Java EE 6 using interceptors. In the following tutorial we’re going to take a look at the different possibilities to apply interceptors to your EJBs at class or method level and how to setup a GlassFish instance to run the examples. Prerequisites We don’t need much for the following tutorial – just a JDK, Maven and GlassFish… Java Development Kit 6 GlassFish 3.1 Maven 3 ...

There is still the urban myth that using Spring IoC container without thousands lines of XML code isn’t possible – so today we’re taking a look at annotation based configuration with Spring 3 and of course we’re using Maven.. Setup your project Create a simple Maven project using mvn archetype:generate // or mvn archetype:create Add a lot of dependencies and reference them to the Spring version defined as a property in your pom.xml. A good reference on Spring 3 and Maven artifacts can be found at Springsource.com <properties> <org.springframework.version>3.0.0.RELEASE</org.springframework.version> </properties> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-core</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-expression</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-beans</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-aop</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-context</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-context-support</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.aspectj</groupId> <artifactId>com.springsource.org.aspectj.runtime</artifactId> <version>1.6.8.RELEASE</version> </dependency> </dependencies> ...
