I'm being told the servlet api is more featureful than most python web frameworks |

|
aditsu |
yeah :) |
| 09:52 |
|
aditsu |
as in xml configuration files |

aditsu: any interest in Java EE 7? |
| 10:45 |
|
aditsu |
pdurbin: I never had any interest in any java EE (except servlets if they're considered as part of the EE) |
| 10:46 |
|
aditsu |
I mean, I took a look at some of the apis, and found them to be monstrous abominations |
| 10:47 |
|
aditsu |
it may have improved in recent versions, I don't know |

Java Servlet Technology 3.0 (JSR 315) is part of the Java EE 6 standard: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26576_01/doc.312/e24939/release-notes.htm#gipkz |

I'm ok with servlets, they're relatively lean |
| 10:48 |
|
pdurbin |
that's what I was hearing last night |
| 10:48 |
|
pdurbin |
do you know of any open source apps that are written entirely as servlets? |
| 10:49 |
|
aditsu |
I don't know.. it's too much work to do anything complex with servlets, but they're great for simple stuff |
| 10:50 |
|
aditsu |
some REST implementations might use servlets directly |
| 10:51 |
|
aditsu |
besides, all java web frameworks (that I heard of) rely on the servlet api |
| 10:52 |
|
aditsu |
as the goal is to run in standard servlet containers |
| 10:52 |
|
pdurbin |
right. makes sense |

google restlet |

| 13:13 |
|
semiosis |
that's a java rest framework that doesn't rely on servlet |
| 13:13 |
|
semiosis |
which imho is a strike against it |
| 13:13 |
|
pdurbin |
semiosis: I was gonna say, I was wondering about things that *do* use servlet :) |
| 13:14 |
|
semiosis |
servlet is a low level api for dealing with http, most java web frameworks & apps are built on top of servlet |
| 13:16 |
|
semiosis |
why the sudden interest in servlet? i thought you were a happy glassfish user |
| 13:17 |
|
pdurbin |
oh, because of a claim that the servlet api is more featureful than most python web frameworks: http://irclog.greptilian.com/sourcefu/2013-04-10#i_5047 |
| 13:18 |
|
pdurbin |
that was in ##programming last night |
| 13:19 |
|
semiosis |
interesting, i always thought of servlet (and servlet containers) as being quite spartan, focusing solely on the HTTP protocol interface |
| 13:22 |
|
pdurbin |
semiosis: talking about it here: http://www.evanchooly.com/logs/%23%23jsf/2013-04-10 |

looks like jforum is open source and only uses the servlet api: http://jforum.net/install.jsp |

pdurbin: why do you want an application built directly on top of servlet? |
| 13:32 |
|
pdurbin |
well, I'm not sure that I do... I do like understanding the various layers of the technology stack I'm using though |
| 13:32 |
|
semiosis |
oh ok |

|
semiosis |
there's not much to it |
| 13:36 |
|
semiosis |
encapsulate HTTP request & response, mediate between HTTP on the socket and java code |
| 13:37 |
|
pdurbin |
pretty low level |
| 13:44 |
|
aditsu |
it has a powerful filter system |
