Hi,
The JUG had a presentation some time ago on Class Loaders. It was very worthwhile, and this WUG one should be too. Everyone on this JUG list is welcome to attend free, and that includes free food and drinks. This is one of the more technical presentations at the WUG, so we're hoping for a good turnout of JUG members.
Regards,
Don ===================================================================== Class Loaders and Best Practices for J2EE Application Deployment Andrew Hans, IBM IBM Building #500 Cafeteria Research Triangle Park, NC
Tues. Oct. 26, 2004
6:00 p.m. Gather, Networking, Light Food and Drinks courtesy of Awoma
6:15 p.m. Sponsor Presentation:. Awoma ThinStructrure (http://www.awoma.com)
Awoma ThinStructure can reduce the development time to build an enterprise application by 60%.
6:35 p.m. Main Talk: Class Loaders and Best Practices for J2EE Application Deployment
This will be an eminently practical talk on a topic that is relevant to every developer of Java Web Applications. I myself have run into the same problems you have: How can I share Java files between multiple WAR's? When should I place a JAR in a the ..\lib directory? When and how do I use a Utility JAR? What do I when I get an error message about a JAR file being found by the wrong Class Loader? When and how can I use a single Class Loader for an entire application, and also for the entire Application Server.
Andrew has the answers, in a comprehensive and understandable presentation.
This talk will cover J2EE Class Loaders in general, in depth, as well as WebSphere Class Loading, and so should be of interest to JBoss and WLS users as well.
Additionally, Andrew can answer questions about Hot Deployment, about Application Server Administration in general, and about WebSphere Support mechanisms, as time permits.
About the Speaker:
Andrew Hans is IBM WebSphere Level 2 Support WAS ADM Team Lead, and is an IBM Certified Advanced System Administrator for WebSphere Application Server V5.0 He has given this presentation throughout the IBM technical support organization, and it is also planned as a paper on DeveloperWorks.
The meeting is FREE to all - no RSVP is needed.
Directions to the Meeting
Distance from Raleigh (17 miles) / Durham (8 miles) / Chapel Hill (12 miles)
From I-40, take Exit 280 - Davis Drive. At the end of the exit ramp, take a right (North) onto Davis Drive. Continue straight on Davis Drive for about 0.5 miles. Take a right on Cornwallis road. Go about 1/2 mile, you will cross over railroad tracks. At the IBM gate keep to the right.
If the rightmost gate is down, press on the intercom button and tell the remote guard that you are attending the WebSphere User Group meeting, and give him your name. He will open the gate for you. Go through gate, follow the road around past the first Tivoli Building, looking for signs leading to Building 500 or "Software Group." Our IBM host is Greg Ackerman - they may ask for his name at the gate (Who is your IBM contact? Greg Ackerman).
Go through gate, follow the road around past the first Tivoli Building, looking for signs leading to Building 500 or "Software Group." It should be the third road on the left. It can be a little tricky, so please allow some extra time the first time.
It can be a little tricky, so please allow some extra time the first time.
You will see a visitors' parking lot. Turn in and park, and walk to the Building 500 lobby.
Be careful not to go too far (the second Tivoli building is too far) or you will find yourself on a one-way exit ramp and have to drive back around.
