Vegas, Casino, Bandits, Police and Some Loot - No Slides Java EE 6 Session at TSSJS

During the session "Lightweight Application Development with Java EE 6" at the TheServerSide Java Symposium March, Las Vegas, I implemented on stage a simple Java EE 6 application "Vegas".

The attendees were true domain experts and suggested "Loot", Mafia, stealing listener and bandits for implementation.
I got many questions and answered them directly with code, so that the code is a bit chaotic. The first time ever an attendee wanted to see how to break and fix Java EE 6 Dependency Injection - we did it as well.
The entire project "Vegas" was developed with NetBeans 6.9.1 and Glassfish v3.0.1 without any extensions, plugins or tricks :-) and pushed into: http://kenai.com/projects/javaee-patterns/ (see hacks/Vegas).
[I was also asked about a link to the Real World Java EE Patterns - Rethinking Best Practices book].

A great show. I wish it could have been recorded. But now I can at least imagine having fun coding in Java EE. Thanks Adam!

@Frank,

if you are new to mercurial use:
hg clone https://hg.kenai.com/hg/javaee-patterns~hg

you can also browse the sources directly:

thanks!,

@Michael,

but: developing with Java EE 6 is orders of magnitudes more fun, than attending a Java EE 6 session :-)

thanks for the nice comment!,

What is the reason for the Casino class to use JAX-RS?

@Stefan,

I was asked how to expose an EJB as JAX-RS - this is the reason. And:

"...I got many questions and answered them directly with code, so that the code is a bit chaotic. The first time ever an attendee wanted to see how to break and fix Java EE 6 Dependency Injection - we did it as well..." :-) [see the post]

Enjoy Java EE 6!,
