First and Only Java CAPS Book is Available
Sun's Michael Czapski has recently published a book about Java CAPS. As far as I know that is the very first book about the subject, it covers the product deeply by showing how to implement common integration design patterns. I hope I can buy a copy soon, it should be available through Amazon.

We've got a couple copies on our team. It's a great book with a lot of helpful information on building good solutions using JCAPS.
ReplyDeleteFor a good taste of Michael's dedication to the field, check out his blog at blogs.sun.com/javacapsfieldtech/
(it has some really good info)
We have a copy too, but we bought it from safari online and we didn't receive a copy of the CD (which would make it much more useful). Anyway, i wish there was a section about Unit Testing Java collaborations ... that would be awesome!
ReplyDeleteDavid, unit-testability of jcaps is one of the biggest holes in the product. While EJB 3 took the route of AOP and POJO testing outside the container, JCDs are still a monolith. I think aspect-oriented programmability and unit-test of services should be one of the main targets of a mature ESB infrastructure.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately almost all vendors I know tend to work more on the "slideware" side of arrow-and-boxes development, which is a way to create just nice looking poresentations for bidimensional-minded CIOs.
