EJB Foundation Classes / News: Recent posts

Today the movement from CVS to SVN was finished. CVS will be not supported anymore. Please use SVN from now on. URLs etc. can be found on the project's site on SourceForge.

The EJBFC project asks for feedback! Please send any critics, bug reports, requests for enhancements, ideas, to markus-karg@users.sourceforge.net! There is a new release planned for summer 2005 and we need input for this. :-)

The EJBFC Project today changed their build policy from using Eclipse's proprietary build mechanism to using Apache's de-facte standard build tool ANT. This opens the doors for using other IDEs to build the EJBFC distributables, also settung up continuous integration tools like CruiseControl. The new build.xml can be found on the CVS server of the EJBFC project.

To support this, EJBFC provides several abstract implementations, which coders can build upon, releaving the programmer from providing a lot of nearly never used empty code blocks.... read more
