J2EE 1.3 certification

Hi,
I will keep repeating this question "when is Oracle coming out with J2EE1.3 certified appserver". I have found that Oracle guys have been very conviniently ignoring this question.
Wake up guys! You might miss the train!
Vimal

Vimal -
Try doing a search in this forum - they've answered it a number of times. Somewhere there is a link to a statement on j2ee compliance and Oracle's plans for it - I couldn't find it off-hand. Basically the long-and-short is they will start making their moves towards j2ee 1.3 towards the end of third qtr - which for them is right now. Don't know the exact time schedule or whether they will hold to that schedule.
Cheers

  • Architect Certification

    Hey.
    Was thinking of doing the J2EE Enterprise Architect Certification from Sun. I dont usually bother with such things, but I have some time on my hands, so thought it might be worthwhile.
    Anyone here bother with that?
    Any feedback from someone who's done it?
    Any links to decent resources?
    Thanks!

    I did it back in 1999. It was just a test then, like the programmer certification
    A friend of mine went through the updated process that required a UML design, more like the developer certification. It looked like a decent problem, and he worked hard on it. He's a talented developer, so the architect cert process helped him with nomenclature and using UML.
    I don't feel like an architect cert has made me what I'd call an architect. I think I still have a lot to learn about how to design and implement large systems well in a group setting. JMO - MOD

  • Websphere 5.1 Jtds jdbc driver issue

    Can some one suggest the possible solution to this issue.
    I am trying to use Jtds 1.2 jdbc driver to connect to Sqlserver 2000 from the websphere 5.1 app server ( actually test server environment from WSAD 5.1.2) and I am getting the SQLException as follows "The requested size is greater than the maximum number of rows" . We have the same Jtds driver running fine on JBoss app server for the same application. So I am guessing it must be some configuration that I am missing in websphere that I could nt able to figure out. Appreciate if some one can direct me.

    It passes the J2EE 1.3 certification ...So it is JDBC 2.0 compliant.
    How does it rate with JDBC 3.0? Like mostly
    complete? Or all complete but just not certified
    (presuming such a certification exists.)It's both JDBC 2.0 and 3.0 compliant. The problem with the J2EE 1.4 compliance test suite is that it's not publicly available (1.3 is) so we simply can't test against it. We are trying to get jTDS certified, but it costs $2000 and we don't have that kind of money (not unless we pay from our pockets). We intend to do it, from donations and commercial support, but we're currently quite far from the $2k target. Even without an official certification jTDS is the driver of choice for a number of applications that need JDBC 3.0 features (e.g. Hibernate).
    The only missing JDBC 3.0 features are connection pooling and row sets. The reason we did not implement these features is that there are good, free third party implementations out there, which are probably better implemented and tested than anything we could come up with (namely DBCP and c3p0 for connection pooling and the Sun reference implementation for row sets). Regarding connection pooling, jTDS does implement the PooledConnection interface, it just doesn't implement the pooling DataSource.
    And it does windows auth as well as database auth
    right (not a new feature but I want to make sure I
    remember?)Yes, it does both SQL Server and Windows authentication. Windows authentication can be done using the credentials of the currently logged user (i.e. without the need to specify a user name and password) or by providing a Windows user name and password (this is useful when logging in from a non-Windows machine or a machine outside of the domain to an SQL Server that is only configured to accept Windows authentication). As far as I know the second Windows authentication mode is only supported by jTDS.

  • Web services design issues.... for a newbie

    I have to develop several web services (JDev 9.0.2.822 and 9iAS R2). Almost all examples that can be downloaded from OTN expose simple web services that user java datatype like strings, ints and the like. In my case, the web services I should develop transfer custom information which are modeled as value classes or entity EJB's in my app. We deal with complex objects which contain collections/arrays/lists of other objects, and although most of the bussiness logic of the app is exposed via stateless session beanss and clases, I can not select their nethods since there ar no custom serializers for them.
    By reviewing the sample newsfeed web service I noticed that int their implementation they decided to "hard-code" the data by doing an XML-query to the db and constructing a custom XML document. this document is returned as a java string so the web-service is, at the end a very simple one, which uses no custom serializers. Of course there is code to create the XML doc, and there should be some XML parsing at the client in order to deserialize the XML into java in order to do something with it.
    My question is, is this the "preferred" method to deal with custom complex datatypes. should I include code in my beans and value classes so they "serialize" itself to XML so my web services have to deal with simple java strings? I have no experience in developing serializers, and I can't see why they are used? I am not sure which path should I follow, for example, should I use an array serializer to serialize a collection/array of object or should I better develop a method which will create a custom XML document repesenting the array? Are there any trade-off?
    I have to start development right away, so please give me some insinght.
    Thanks,
    Fedro.

    Yes, Oracle9iAS is currently production on 9.0.2. The target for OC4J 9.0.3 was end of summer but I have not seen it arrive yet. It is supposed to work in conjunction with 9.0.2 - i.e. you can use the OC4J 9.0.3 with the rest of your Oracle9iAS implementation. I think you are reasonably safe assuming it will be here by year end. I sit on the JDev side of the house so don't have specifics on what their actual delivery dates are but would guess sometime during September. The developer preview of OC4J 9.0.3 is currently available here on OTN as per the headline in the Web services Center at: http://otn.oracle.com/tech/webservices.
    There are two big advantages of OC4J 9.0.3:
    1. Interoperability testing ... it has been put through the SOAPBuilder's interoperability tests and includes a test suite for you to try it out 9.0.2 is fine here but you have evidence in 9.0.3;
    2. Feature/functionality - support for Web services based on JMS, document style Web service support, testing harness at the end-point, J2EE 1.3 certification, custom serialization support (not there in 9.0.2), cleaner PL/SQL based Web services and more - see:
    http://otn.oracle.com/products/ias/daily/jul22.html
    The development environment that goes along with it is JDeveloper 9.0.3. While OC4J 9.02/9.03 comes with what is called the Web services assembly tool for those who like scripting/command-driven approaches, JDev puts a traditional visual dev environment on top of the OC4J 9.0.3 environment (and also Apache SOAP 2.2/2.3.1, incidently) The developer preview of JDev 9.03 is due out within days here on OTN ... probably Tuesday based on what I understand. JDev 9.0.3 production is scheduled to arrive probably in late September mid-October.
    Hope this gives some background to help with your decision.

  • Java Developer Exam Questions

    I got my JCP certification a while ago and have been debating if it is even worth it to go forth and get the Developer certification. A colleague of mine told me that certification exams for specific technologies are generally good only for contract work, not for full-time employees. He suggested rather than wasting my time and money on exams that I should take night classes and work towards a masters.
    So this is really a two part question, first of all do you think it is worth the money and time? Secondly, what kind of project assignment could I expect to get if I sign up for it?

    well certification in itself is a buzzword which
    might be missing.No one expects a developer with 10 years of
    experience to have a developer certification in the
    CV. It might actually make the CV look odd /
    suspicious. Why have a developer certification in
    there if you already have lots of experience?
    KajWell I have personally interviewed 10s of developers with 10 years of experience, but actually it turned out that they had 10 * 1year experience. Certifications are just a proff that you have worked on that technology as well. We are not talking about just java certifications. e.g. if I am hiring a java developer with 10 years of java experience who has an oracle certification as well, and I need somebody in the team to have a good understanding of databases it would be beneficial.
    Or if the job requires some level of tibco experience, tibco certification would be good to have. Certifications just serve a hint that the applicant has some level of proficiency in the field he has been certified in. A j2ee enterprise architect certification might give one an idea that the applicant is familar with some practices in enterprise architecture. 10 years experience might not guarantee that, plus you might agree a lot of resumes you see these days of mid level developers, claim some kind of architectural exp., thought they might not even know of GoF patterns let alone Enterprise integration patterns. If I have two resumes in front of me with same amount of experience, one with a lot of certifications and the other just experience I would prefer the former, since atleast i know somebody has already done the pre screening for me.
    I know what you are talking about, but I always encourage developers to go for certifications and not just java certifications,.
    PS. I am not talking about entry level certifications only.

  • Certification for WEB COMPONENT DEVELOPER FOR J2EE[tm]

    Hi all,
    I'm thinking of getting certified as a
    WEB COMPONENT DEVELOPER FOR J2EE[tm] PLATFORM.
    What is your experience? How do I prepare best for the exam?
    Any book / tutorial particulary useful?
    Thanks for your input!
    Anja

    For what its worth, I found this the easiest of the certifications (compared to Programmer and Developer). My 2 cents of advice includes:
    - Use the Sun objectives as the driver for your study. Review the objectives thoroughly and make detailed notes by section. http://www.javaranch.com/scwcdlinks.jsp has some good examples of this (plus a lot of other useful stuff). The exam is a bit of a memory test - you need to know details of the deployment descriptor, the taglib definition, listeners, the API etc.
    - Take the time to read the servlet and JSP specifications. Although on first sight these are large documents, much of them is reference material and they can be read in a couple of hours. They will help in making the detailed notes.
    - Go over the servlet API for the key methods.
    - If you've not been working with servlet/JSP technologies, read a good book on servlets / JSPs for general background.
    - Try a few mock tests, although there are far fewer available than for JCP. Avoid the ones that charge a fee - I found them less than helpful.
    - This is probably just me, but be careful if you book the test via the web. I did just that, and when I turned up at the test center they had never heard of me. Follow-up with a phone call to the actual center to ensure that they are expecting you.
    Good Luck!

  • Which SUN J2EE Certification?

    Hi,
    I am currently studying Java to get a better understanding of the underlying technology for EP 6.0.
    I've just completed the Java Programmer Certification and want to move onto one of the three available J2EE certifications available.
    The following are available:
    - SUN Certified Web Component Developer
    - SUN Certified Business Component Developer
    - SUN Certified Developer for Java Web Services
    I'm sure they are all relevant in some way but since there is a considerable time investment involved I'd like to start with the most relevant one. Can anyone recommend which is the most appropriate to start with?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Richard

    Hi.Based on the course outline, i personally think Web Component Developer should be started. It covers the basics on web development. Depends on your job scope, if you want to explore further to web service, then SUN Certified Developer for Java Web Services will be next.

  • What is the best Path for a J2EE developer with oracle?

    Hi,
    I am a J2EE developer, for the time being I work at a Commercial Bank as an enterprise application developer. I have learnt java when I was following a local IT diploma and with the help of books, works at my working place and the internet , today I am developing J2EE applications with JSP,Servlets,JSF2.0,EJB3.0 and third party JSF libraries etc. (I am also developing softwares using other programing languages such as Asp.net, C#.net, WPF etc, but I prefer to be in the java path). Other than that, I'm also working as the UI designer of most of our applications.
    I have those skills and practice after working for 4 years as a web/enterprise application developer & a UI designer, but now I have to focus on some paper qualifications and hence I am doing BCS.
    Now I want to be a java professional in Oracle's path, and I need to know what is the best path I can select to move with Oracle. I finished my classes of SCJP , but didn't do the exams as there were some rumors that Oracle will dump those exams in the future. I am interested in Oracle university, but I am unable to even think about it as I live in Sri Lanka and don't have that much of financial wealth to go USA and join.
    So I really appreciate if any Oracle professional could suggest me the best educational path according to what I mentioned about my technical and career background. Because I have a dream to join Oracle one day as an employee and being a good contributer to the same forum, which I am getting helps today!
    Thanks!!!

    As you can see on our website, Oracle did not retire the Java certifications. You can browse through the available certifications and hopefully help to determine your path.
    http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=140
    SCJP has now become Oracle Certified Professional Java Programmer. You can find more info on those exams on our website here: http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=320.
    Regarding training, perhaps live virtual training would be an option for you. You can find more information at http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=233.

  • XML processing conform to Certification of Third-Party XI-Adapters

    We are developing a XI-Adapter which needs xml processing. Actually we use some xml tools to process xml document, but we read in the document named  NW_XI_AF_certification_catalog_2.0.pdf that some requirement are not met, such as
    1. If the adapter must be able to parse XML documents, do you use the SAP J2EE XML parser libraries?
    the answer is no, we use jdom and other ways to handle xml.
    QA1: Is it a must and only way to use SAP J2EE XML parser libraries if want to pass the certification
    QA2: The topic named "Using DOM4J in XI - A More Sophisticated Option for XML Processing than SAP XML Toolkit" available at /people/amjad-ali.khoja/blog/2006/02/07/using-dom4j-in-xi--a-more-sophisticated-option-for-xml-processing-than-sap-xml-toolkit
    If do as the passage shows, will the adapter pass the certification
    QA3: Now we package all the tools we use in the sda package and deploy on the SDM, and it works too, what is the difference between package the util tools for process xml(*.jar) in sda and copy them to the corresponding j2ee dir and bin dir as shown in the passage listed

    I think an SAP man should answer here, but my common sense and SAP knowledge suggests me:
    A1: yes, evidently
    A2: the fact that DOM4J is quoted in a weblog doesn't mean it's officialy supported by SAP, it's  just an option, just like Apache Xerces and others. You can use them in interface dev, it's up to you, but an Adapter is a completly different story: SAP wants to make sure it has full control over a Certified Adapter, and the only way to do that is to have full control on the additional libraries that this Adapter uses. SAP can have this control on SAP XML Toolkit, but not on DOM4J or Xerces, obviously.
    A3: no difference, except that logically and pragmatically is much more convenient to package and deploy everyhting your stuff needs in order to work properly.

  • Regd certification. which one to go for ? :-(

    hello everyone,
    i really confused with the certification courses. which one should i opt for. teched is on oct 5-7 in bangalore. i have four options here ->
    1.EP (totally new for me)
    2.XI (totally new for me)
    3.WAS (totally new for me)
    4.ABAP (have worked for a month)
    i just have one month time to prepare for any one of those certifications. can anyone suggest me which one should i opt for, or should i wait for some more time & then attend a cetification test. ??? please respond asap taking in consideration about the technology & the 1 month time
    -rajesh

    Hi Rajesh,
    As you have said, you have only one month experience in ABAP. But, if you have atleast 1 year experience in JAVA or J2EE applications then i would suggest to you to go for WAS certification. Course name is
    "Development Consultant SAP NetWeaver´04 - Web Application Development Focus JAVA "
    You can clear this certification, if you will take training for the same in banglore.

  • Next certification path/career progression.

    Hi,
    I am software developer with 3 years of exp (plsql developer 2 yrs and j2ee 1 year), I have completed OCA-developer track(plsql). I also have little experience on DBA side.
    I had posted a year back asking which track should I opt for(developer/dba) and which version(10g/11g).
    Now when I am OCA, I have further few questions. I am not sure about the market value of OCP - developer track.
    Would it be really valuable becoming OCP for plsql developer track?
    I am out of job currently. So I am not aiming at enhancing my current work skils(as I am out of work).
    But I am aiming towards the certification which would improve my resume worth equally balanced by my work experience.
    So OCP-developer should be ideal for me or OCA-DBA?
    As I plan to give SCWCD too , to boost my j2ee exp, so that I can apply for both plsql devloper/j2ee developer openings,
    I afford to choose only one oracle exam as of now.
    Also, which oracle technology/product is hot cake right now in market? What would be my ideal career progression?
    PLSQL developer and OCA/OCP(3 years of exp) ---> ???
    What is OBIEE? what is the starting point of that field if I wish to enter into it?
    Reply and help would be sincerely appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Certification on SAP Netweaver 7.1 (CE)

    Hi,
    We are a little bit ahead of things, but is there already any idea about what the certification criteria for a J2EE deployment are going to be for SAP Netweaver 7.1?
    Is it going to be similar to 7.0 or are criteria drastically going to change in 7.1?
    Any advise/help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    Ronald Kleijn

    Hello Piyush,
    on the webpage to the JAVA-EE-ADV 7.1 cerification scenario:
    SAP NetWeaver AS - Deployment on 64 Bit SAP NetWeaver (CE) 7.1 Application Server Java™ EE 5 Edition (JAVA-EE-STD and JAVA-EE-ADV) - SAP Solution Manager (SolMan) Ready! [original link is broken]
    you will find the following information:
    - Every certified integration for JAVA-EE-STD 7.1 or JAVA-EE-ADV 7.1 receives the "Certified for SAP NetWeaver" endorsement.
    - Only a certified integration for JAVA-EE-ADV 7.1 receives the "Powered by SAP NetWeaver" endorsement
    So you need to do the JAVA-EE-ADV 7.1 certification to get the "Powered by SAP NetWeaver" endorsement.
    Please reward points if ther answer was helpful for you.
