Last week Stephane Epardaud and Nicolas Leroux, senior software developers at Lunatech Research, presented “Nouvelles technologies de développement en JEE” at the Forum des Professions Informatique 2008 in Nice.

The conference was organised by the University of Nice and it was rather pleasant to discuss with the students and other I.T. professionals. Thanks again for the invitations.

This is also the start of a new Open Source project that will be used as a show case for new technologies (JBoss Seam, JPA, EJB 3, Hibernate Search, etc…). The project is available here. We will try to write some nice tutorials and articles about it. More to come on this web, so keep posted.

In the meantime, you can download the presentation slides in French (PDF, 0.5 Mb).

We would like to invite you to our fourth Benelux JBoss User Group meeting: an afternoon of free technical sessions presented by JBoss developers.

The JBoss User Group is growing and even our last location is now too small, so once again we arranged something special: we will meet in the Staal Zaal in Rotterdam. i-Portal Rotterdam has kindly agreed to sponsor the event by providing us with a sumptuous room.

Photos of the event are now on-line. (more…)

JBoss Seam is a Java EE application framework whose many roles can make it hard to introduce and explain. It turns out that the European Union (EU) is a good metaphor for Seam, and not just for the humour-value. (more…)

Here are a few photos from last week’s JBoss User Group event. (more…)

This article explains how to do programmatic log in, in a Seam 1.2.1 application. If like us, you want to allow your users to change their credentials once they are logged in into your application, you might be forced to log them out and to ask them to re-login. There is a nicer way to do this.
