Experts,
some weeks ago we discussed server sided use of the new JAX-RS client API,
e. g. to pull information from an external RESTful web service.
As I remember, at least for EJBs (SBs, MDBs) it is forbidden to use blocking
operations, threading operations, files API and sockets API. All this for
the sake of stability and security. So the good question now is: Is this at
least allowed for managed beans (CDI / JSF) or servlets? Anybody being a
member of that particular EGs, knowing the answer for sure? Because if the
same rule would apply to managed beans, JSF and servlets, what server side
use case did we actually had in mind back then? RAR? JCA? Please comment.
:-)
Thanks
Markus
