Java EE Integration

Wiki MarkupThis page is used to track the status of implementation of SCA Java EE Integration Spec v1.0 \ [1\] and Tuscany integration with Geronimo. The Daytrader sample \[2\] from Geronimo will be enhanced to demonstrate the integration.

High level functions to be supported

  • support SCA annotations in JEE components
    See 1a and 2b below

with Geronimo.

Latest update

The latest Geronimo Tuscany plugin we have can be installed on Geronimo v2.1.3. The plugin supports SCA reference and property injection in JSP, Servlet, Servlet Filters, Listeners, JSF Managed Beans, Session EJB and Message-Driven EJB. For instructions on installing the plugin and running sample applications, follow this link .

Deploying JEE archives with SCA

Deployment Options

  • non-enhanced
  • enhanced
    • deployable composite
    • application composite
    • contribution explicit deployment
    • contribution implicit deployment

If an archive is not marked as "contribution explicit deployment" or "contribution implicit deployment" it is assumed to be included within, or otherwise reference by, an SCA contribution. See "Archive Location Scenarios" for ways in which JEE archive can be positioned with respect to SCA contribution.

Archive location scenarios

When using implementation.jee archive="xyz" what does xyz mean? The artifact location described by these scenarios could equally apply to stand alone war and EJB jar files. Section 1 of the spec includes the following statement "This specification defines the integration of SCA and Java EE within the context of a Java EE application, the use of Java EE components as service component implementations, and the deployment of Java EE archives either within or as SCA contributions. "

A - EAR is external resource (external)

Not defined in Spec.

General pattern for accessing external EAR fles.

<component name="xyz">
<implementation.jee archive="file://c:/temp/my.ear"/>
</component>

Or, when EAR is available in the JEE container

<component name="xyz">
<implementation.jee archive="logical ear name"/>
</component>

B - EAR is artifact in same contribution (nested)

Spec : The archive attribute specifies a relative path to the Java EE archive that serves as
implementation artifact

<component name="xyz">
<implementation.jee archive="../my.ear"/>
</component>

C - EAR is another contribution (other)

Not defined in Spec.

Not clear how the reference would be formed

<component name="xyz">
<implementation.jee archive="contribution name"/>
</component>

D - EAR is artifact in another contribution (othernested)

Not defined in Spec.

Again not clear how the reference would be formed but it would seem consistent to exploit the contribution export/import mechanism

<component name="xyz">
<implementation.jee archive="contribution name/ear name?"/>
</component>

E - EAR is a self contained contribution (contrib)

Spec : If EAR is a contribution @archive attribute can be left unspecified, and the archive defaults to
be the archive of the contribution itself.

<component name="xyz">
<implementation.jee/>
</component>

High level functions to be supported

  1. Recognize JEE application as an SCA composite by default without any support for annotation or wiring
    Scenario covered: Tuscany will create a composite based on JEE component model. This will enable JEE application to be used by other components in the SCA domain or call other components.
  2. local assembly and the application composite covered in 1c, 2c, and 3c in the table below
  • support wiring across JEE applications
  • support using SCA components within a JEE application

...

  • Scenario covered: Enables a JEE component to participate in the assembly which can include JEE and none-JEE services. Wiring gets defined in the application composite xml file.
  1. support SCA annotations in JEE components
    See 1a and 2b below, so things like reference and property injection into EJBs, Servlets etc
    Scenario covered: It enables a JEE component to be recognized as an SCA component to participate in a composition. Without SCA annotation, JEE component would still participate in a composition, but we would continue using JEE way to define services, references and properties. You would loose the ability to have none-JEE bindings, for example web20 bindings or to consume none-jee services.
  • support using SCA services external to the a JEE application
    ie the service is not within the JEE app - a servlet or ejb invokes an SCA service running else where in the SCA domain

...

  2. support implementation.jee, implementation.ejb, and implementation.web for coarse-grained wiring

...


  1. ie a

...

  1. reference in a JSP in a webapp war wired to an EJB in a separate EAR and a BPEL process deploy as a non-JEE SCA contributions
    or a reference in a non-JEE SCA component wired to JEE artifacts
  2. support SCA policies such as transaction and security within the JEE container
  3. ability to deploy Non-JEE artifact SCA contributions and have them run in the container context
    ie an SCA contribution containing a SCA service using binding.ws would use the container http infrastructure
  4. support using the JEE container infrastructure where appropriate
    ie the various Tuscany host-xxx modules, a service with binding.ws uses the existing HTTP connector, binding.jms uses the messaging provider,
    and support for the various QoS aspects using JEE capabilities
