Hi all,
I was wondering if Java EE 8 was "*spec completed*" at the moment or if
there are other specs coming along. Correct me if I'm wrong, but so far we
have (I hope I'm not missing any) :
*New Specifications*
-
*JCache (JSR 107) *
-
*JSON-B 1.0 (JSR 367) *
-
*MVC 1.0 (JSR 371) *
- *Java EE Security 1.0 (JSR 375)*
*Updated Specifications*
-
*CDI 2.0 (JSR 365) *
-
*JMS 2.1 (JSR 368) *
-
*Servlet 4.0 (JSR 369) *
-
*JAX-RS 2.1 (JSR 370) *
-
*JSF 2.3 (JSR 372) *
-
*Java EE Management API 2.0 (JSR 373) *
- *JSON-P 1.1 (JSR 374)*
*Any other coming along ?*
- *Bean Validation (JSR 349)* : I know Emmanuel Bernard is planning of
updating it to have the Java SE 8 goodies
- *Common Annotations (JSR 250)* : The CDI 2.0 EG is thinking of
introducing a broader usage of the @Priority annotation (not just for
interceptor, but other things). Is there any plan to update the JSR 250 ?
- *Concurrency Utilities for Java EE (JSR 236)* : It would be the
perfect spec to have @Startup, @Schedule, @Asynchronous, @Pooled
annotations. Any plans on that ?
- Enterprise JavaBeans (JSR 345) : The CDI 2.0 is thinking of
introducing the notion of self injection (e.g. @Self<MySelf> me) that would
allow interception within the same bean. Updating the Interceptor spec
could be interesting. Any plans ? If Interceptor is updated, would EJB be
updated too ?
- Java Persistence 2.1 (JSR 338) : any plan to support Date and Time API
(JSR 310) mapping ? Is there a MR planned for JPA ?
- *Java API for WebSocket (JSR 356)* : just wondering
- *Batch (JSR 352)* : just wondering
- *Data Grids (JSR 347)* : just wondering
- *Expression Language 3.0 *(JSR 341) : just wondering
- JAX-WS 2.0 (JSR 224) : just wondering
Thanks for any feedback
