Notes on Glassfish exploded deploys vs. JBoss

While in Jboss 4.0.x I'm able to mix exploded and packaged modules in my .ear - Glassfish seems to require either fully exploded or fully packaged. E.g. if I have a packaged ejb module together with an exploded web module in an exploded .ear - this doesn't seem to work with Glassfish.

Another thing is that when having exploded ejb and web (war) modules in glassfish the extension should be _jar and _war rather than .jar and .war - in JBoss dots or _ is irrelevant. What might be confusing is that the reference in application.xml to these modules is still done using dots.

These are my initial experiences from trying to get the lmappletserver-addons-example (http://sourceforge.net/projects/lmappletserver) up and running with Glassfish. I've now managed to deploy it - but still there are to many errors to call it a successful deployment - will be back with more info as I make progress...

Angular components not reloading on route change

Spent a long time wondering why route changes caused strange effects on my component, and found out that it was because my component wasn't reloading at all. I had this assumption that when a route parameter changed (e.g. /projects/1 changed to /projects/2 ) the component for the route would be reloaded. But this is not the default behaviour of the Angular router. The default behaviour of the Angular router is to reuse the route if the configuration is the same (and not reload the component). But we can override this by providing a RouteReuseStrategy to our @NgModule: providers: [ { provide: RouteReuseStrategy, useClass: AARouteReuseStrategy } ] The full custom implementation of the RouteReuseStrategy will then be like this (and it's the shouldReuseRoute method that changes the behaviour so that the component is reloaded on route parameter change): export class AARouteReuseStrategy extends RouteReuseStrategy { shouldDetach(route: ActivatedRou...

My VNC based development environment with Visual Studio Code running on Ubuntu

I've used this setup for my development environment for several years - giving me a developer desktop I can access anywhere. Even from my mobile phone. I've been fixing bugs, writing code and deployed emergency fixes from the bus, train and mountain tops. The setup is based on a lightweight desktop environment. There are lot of alternatives, but I've chosen fluxbox. From a plain AWS Amazon Ubuntu 16.04 ec2 instance I've started like this: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install fluxbox Download and extract tigervnc from https://github.com/TigerVNC/tigervnc/releases (I downloaded the binary file from https://bintray.com/tigervnc/stable/tigervnc/1.7.0 named tigervnc-1.7.0.x86_64.tar.gz ) then extract: tar -xvzf tigervnc-1.7.0.x86_64.tar.gz You need to install: sudo apt-get install x11-xkb-utils You need to edit .vnc/xstartup: nano .vnc/xstartup last line replace "twm &" with: fluxbox & Then you can start the...

Webassembly and audioworklet

Have been playing a lot recently with webassembly and the upcoming audioworklet web standard. This is exciting and powerful technology, opening up for serious use of the web in production of audio and music. Follow the links from my homepage petersalomonsen.com for live demo and more resources.
