Google App Engine

Thu, 09 Apr 2009 19:55:32 +0000

It was great news to hear how google has adopted java servlets as the second platform for app engine. My account has it enable now and I look forward to tesing it out.

The few restrictions that exist do not really seem to matter. I haven’t seen a situation where it’d be ideal for a servlet to spawn a thread, though I’m sure someone could point out such a situation.

Later I’ll write more about my experiences with it.

Java Spring

Sun, 29 Mar 2009 16:32:12 +0000

I’ve started working with Spring, and to me the Inversion of Control via Dependency Injection really stands out as a nice design methodology. Of course this is a concept one can use in any software when required, even without Spring.

After reading about the foundation of Spring, I cannot wait to use it. I plan to discuss it more sufficiently as I gain more experience with it. I’d like to test out its web MVC module as soon as possible.
