- The general support library contains various smaller utilities that
- can be useful for any java project.
+ There are many purposes for this documentation: +
++ Some parts in the utilities library may seem familiar to users of + other popular frameworks such as Spring and + Guice. This + is not always a coincidence. It is my view that Spring is just another IOC framework and + that there can be many IOC frameworks. Also, the support that one actually needs to develop + applications and in particular enterprise applications efficiently only requires a few basic + support utilities and typically not a big framework. +
+Apart from this, there are many other + interesting developments going on: +
++ In particular, I believe that Java EE 6 with new powerful concepts such as singleton beans, + lifecycle management, Contexts and Dependency Injection, and Enterprise OSGI will provide + the most powerful way to develop applications in the future. In this. I am making only an + exception for web frameworks to which I think JSF is not a good solution. I would use + Wicket anyday if it's up to me. +
