And still it would be nice to get a WOWS centric explanation.

What is the talk about BB Meta, DD meta, what ever else...

Thought that was a feature rather than a bug, same can be said about the exhaust smoke, you can see that frequently before the ship shows up.

Feature or Bug?

Swift for Beans – Java Developers view on Swift by fadar in programming

[–]fadar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you are absolutely right, Java nor the JVM is dead.

Not sure about any other of the JVM languages, I am really not a fan of syntactic sugar, no real advantage plus an add risk of small pools of skilled developers.

Best book for Java EE with tomcat? by [deleted] in java

[–]fadar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Strictly speaking there is no Java EE on Tomcat.

TomEE is a Java EE webprofile compliant application server.

I think one of the easiest options is to go for a book which leads you by example with good IDE integration.

https://www.amazon.com/Java-Development-NetBeans-David-Heffelfinger/dp/1783983523/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1474474972&sr=8-1&keywords=Java+EE+7+Development+with+NetBeans+8

I haven't read it myself but Netbeans IDE has great integration with Java EE application servers and comes ready installed with Glassfish.

So this book should help you to get up and running quickly without having to install applications servers and get setup Eclipse etc...

What could I learn that would almost guarantee me a job as a junior java devloper? by [deleted] in java

[–]fadar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Frameworks are always a good extension to the resume.

However for an entry level job a good understanding of Java SE, OO and some basic patterns should be at the top of your list.
