Re: [jakartaee-platform-dev] Defining Jakarta EE 12 Scope in Program Plan

I certainly hope you are right. Is there some fundamental differences with MicroProfile Config that's holding up progress? If so, anyone aware what those are?

MP Config was more or less a blueprint for Jakarta Config. Then the slate was wiped clean, so should that be reverted again?

I did not follow the activity in the Config spec recently, because I focussed more on Data on its way into Jakarta EE 11.
With vendor exchange and compromises here and there it got finished.

I assume, the old MP design was not abandoned for nothing, maybe some aspects of it are valuable, so everyone involved should work together the same way as we saw with Data, then it should hopefully be ready for Jakarta EE 12.

Regarding a comment in the doc about configuration and moving MP config into Jakarta, the easiest thing to do given the current state of Jakarta Config, which essentially boils down to:
public interface Config {
    /**
     * Loads an object of the supplied {@code type} from the current {@link Config} <em>configuration path</em>.
     *
     * @param <T> the type of object to load
     * @param type the type of object to load; must not be {@code null}
     * @return the loaded object; never {@code null}
     * @exception NoSuchElementException if the requested object is not found.
     * @exception IllegalArgumentException if the supplied {@code type} was invalid for any reason
     * @exception NullPointerException if the supplied {@code type} was {@code null}
     */
    <T> T load(Class<T> type);
}

              
and some annotation for customizing the binding fields on a configuration POJO, Jakarta Config could just be released as is with a very simple POJO configuration object view with the details left to the implementation. Vendors supporting MP config would leverage that for the serialized forms, type conversion, etc. Specs would need to define their configuration POJOs. MP config could be the de facto portable format.

I am moving comments on my Jakarta EE 12 Google Doc

to Jakarta EE mailing lists when possible. The problem with Google Docs
comments is that they do not scale very well, aren't very readable on
smaller devices, and do not archive well. I will do so one email per
comment. The person commenting is copied.

Context: Why does replacing EJB matter?

Josh Juneau (Community): Are there any comprehensive tutorials on how to
utilize CDI rather than EJB for querying entities? It seems like these
tutorials need to be made front and center in an effort to help steer
people to CDI and to show that EJB is no longer needed in many cases.

Reza Rahman (Microsoft): Good point. As of Jakarta EE 11, it is indeed
possible to just use CDI now for basic CRUD in a transactional and
thread safe manner with Jakarta Persistence. The same for EJB
@Asynchronous and @Schedule. At the bare minimum, this is worthy of an
Eclipse Foundation newsletter article and/or JakartaOne talk. The
material could cover where EJB is not needed any more and where it is
still needed. The title could be something attention grabbing like -
"EJB is Dead, Long-Live CDI and Jakarta EE". We could also ensure a
revised Jakarta EE 11 Tutorial can avoid using EJB when possible. Maybe
Kito could comment on this? Additionally, the Marketing Committee has
been sponsoring some guides. Could we consider already starting an EJB
migration guide?
