  • Hexagonal Architecture/Ports And Adapters: Clarifying Key Concepts Using Go
    1 project | dev.to | 21 Mar 2024
    Historically, Ports and Adapters was born in the context where Dependency Inversion Principle (DIP) was getting hot, back in the beginning of the 2000’s. DIP was getting more present on development day to day, and an example of a framework that was a pioneer in such topic is Google Guice.
  • Inversion of Control Containers and the Dependency Injection Pattern (2004)
    2 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 21 Feb 2024
    “There are many advantages to using dependency injection, but doing so manually often leads to a large amount of boilerplate code to be written. Guice is a framework that makes it possible to write code that uses dependency injection without the hassle of writing much of that boilerplate code”

    This is a common misconception. Guice’s docs delineate between dependency injection as a pattern and Guice as a framework that supports that pattern.

  • Why dependency injection?
    1 project | /r/java | 11 Apr 2023
    You can (and it's very normal to) use that with new. Dependency injection frameworks (like guice) let you skip passing long parameter lists to constructor arguments like you mention. But you don't really NEED that. They also will solve circular dependency issues and some other things, although a strong argument could be made that you should simply restructure your code so that those issues don't exist.

    1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 5 Apr 2023
    Bob was a nice guy. We had an overlapping tenure at Google in the 2000s. He was one of the original authors of the Guice dependency injection framework: https://github.com/google/guice. When I was earning Java readability at Google, I was fortunate to have had him assigned as a reviewer. Huge loss; he left a very positive impression on me.

  • Handling two contexts
    2 projects | /r/golang | 28 Mar 2023
    Usually each context has a different scope and lifetime associated with it. Here, it sounds like there are two distinct scopes: server and request (cf. how Guice models scopes: https://github.com/google/guice/wiki/Scopes). It is rarely sensible to merge the scopes or contexts together. If we think about a context, it contains several things:

    As said in the title, we will focus on the dependency inversion principle and one of its application : dependency injection. For production-ready applications, it would be better to rely on a framework and not implement its own container. For it, the java ecosystem have 3 frameworks available : Spring, Guice and Dagger.

    Manual instrumentation allows you to define your Spans within the code itself rather than relying on automatic instrumentation finding the entry point for a trace. Manual instrumentation is especially helpful for applications that don’t use an application server such as Tomcat, JBoss, or Jetty.

    Do we still enjoy it? We are running many Vaadin apps in production since that first one. If there are not any specific requirements we use a “modular monolith” concept, which fits our stack best. We pack applications as WAR and deploy them under Apache Tomcat. And yes, we enjoy the development process. It’s very straightforward and Vaadin and SpringBoot fit together well.

    3 projects | dev.to | 10 Nov 2022
    JasperReports Server Community requires a Java application server and a database to create a repository in order to work properly. After downloading JRS, the installation process can install Tomcat server and PostgreSQL database automatically for us and the services will run depending on the Jasper server. It's also possible to connect JRS to services already installed on the server. Moreover, while the free version supports the MySQL server, with the paid version you can also use commercial databases, for example, ORACLE Database, as a data repository.

    * https://github.com/apache/tomcat/pull/532

    We fronted the server with haproxy LTS. Our initial testing showed roughly and order of magnitude [10x] increase in the number of requests the server could handle.

    It's not completely plug-and-play; we still had a write a custom valve to set the request remote ip address and some other TCPish stuff, but nevertheless the capacity far outstripped our need for the technology.

    Don't use an installed copy of Tomcat. The layout can be different than expected and permission problems can appear at the worst time. For one, it needs to be able to write to that conf directory. Download a non-platform-specific "core" zip file from tomcat.apache.org instead.
  • Where is polymorphism used in actual Software development?
    1 project | /r/learnprogramming | 18 Sep 2022
    Anytime you use dependencies you make use of code for a purpose that was not originally intended. The apachee web server was named after a patchwork quilt. Many contributors had useful code from commercial projects they contributed to the cause. In networking protocols packets are discarded after a set number of hops, or an expiration date so the internet does not have zombie packets wondering around. The tcp/ip traceroute command uses TTL to find all the collision domains in a request.
  • Has anyone used Java backend with NextJS?
    1 project | /r/nextjs | 17 Sep 2022
    If you plan on a full enterprise solution apache server has built in roles, users and corporate tools. It integrates well with Java. Express is much easier in my opinion. You may use xml instead of json. Other than that the front end and backend don't matter. Since ERP is what you are dealing with maybe that is the way to go?
