Re: [cu-dev] Thoughts on attempting to move Jakarta Concurrency into Web

[Reza Rahman <reza_rahman@xxxxxxxxx>]

I definitely think this is a good idea, coupled with eventually removing EJB Lite and EJB pretty much from everything. EJB has been a very hard hurdle for Java EE adoption for a long time. It just never recovered from the well earned poor reputation from EJB 2.x/J2EE and probably should have been renamed/refactored in Java EE 5 along with JPA.

I do wonder though if Concurrency is really needed in Core Profile. A majority of simple microservices simply may not need the functionality.

All,

 

I’m thinking of raising an issue on the platform project to get Jakarta Concurrency included in the Web Profile for Jakarta EE 10 and maybe also Core Profile if it is available in EE10 timeframe.

 

Main reasons are;

 

First I’m not sure why it isn’t there now as it is pretty principle and therefore would be of benefit to “Web” applications and REST services.

 

Second some of the things we are proposing could then be usable by other specifications @Asynchronous, @Lock and @Schedule

 

Third it would then pave the way of providing some of the capabilities of Session Beans to all CDI beans and therefore driving @Stateless to be more of a stereotype.

 

Thoughts?
