... or how close the client is to the server from a technological point
of view. I'm actually connecting .NET-Clients to a
Java-Server, and no, I'm not using SOAP+HTTP. MINA works like a charm
here, you can even switch ByteBuffer-Writes
to Little-Endian-Mode which can then easily be read in C#.
So definitively worth a look at when you want to connect X to a
Java-Server using sockets with X = every thinkable
TCP-Client.

MINA and "Java EE" are not really comparable. MINA is a relatively low
level networking library whereas "Java EE" is a collection of higher level
APIs for doing a variety of things including web applications, persistence
and RPC. Some of those may involve HTTP but not all of them - for example
HTTP is irrelevant for EJB persistence.
What does your application do?
If you would consider writing your application using sockets then MINA
definitely is worth looking at. If you would consider writing your
application using RMI or CORBA then "Java EE" may be a more appropriate
choice. It depends on how close to the wire you need to get.

Please respond to

Thanks.
Is my observation about Java EE correct, in that it is HTTP-oreiented?

I'm new to MINA, and hence the newbie question.
I need to develop a server that serves (mobile) clients via a TCP
connection. Clients may maintain a connection open for various periods
of
time (depending mainly on network coverage).
Is MINA the right framework for me? Is there anything in Java EE that
can
also do this (I'm just taking my first steps with that also), or is it
solely HTTP-oriented?
You could certainly do that with MINA.. in fact mina would be ideal if
you
have lots of longer-lived connections, since it would be able to scale
nicely.
