04 October 2005 - Apache Beehive 1.0 Released
The Apache Beehive Project is pleased to announce the v1.0 release of Apache Beehive.
This release provides the following major features:
- NetUI (Page Flow + JSP tag library)
- Controls framework
- System controls for accessing JDBC, JMS, and EJB resources
- Many bug fixes
- Significantly enhanced documentation
- Additional samples
Binary and source distributions can be downloaded via an Apache mirror from:
http://beehive.apache.org/releases/release-1.0.cgi
Documentation for v1.0 is here:
http://beehive.apache.org/docs/1.0
A few notes about this release:
- WSM and the web service control are not included as WSM has not passed the JSR 181 TCK yet. Both will be available in a subsequent release.
- v1.0 does not include XMLBeans due to licensing issues with the JSR 173 API JAR; however, XMLBeans can still be used with Beehive and is available from http://xmlbeans.apache.org/
- Changes in v1.0 from v1.0m1 can be found here: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&pid=10570&fixfor=12310123

Our goal is to make J2EE programming easier by building a simple object model on J2EE and Struts. Using Java 5 annotations, Beehive reduces the coding necessary for J2EE. The initial Beehive project has three pieces. NetUI: An annotation-driven web application programming framework that is built atop Struts. NetUI centralizes navigation logic, state, metadata, and exception handling in a single encapsulated and reusable Page Flow Controller class. In addition, NetUI provides a set of JSP tags for rendering HTML / XHTML and higher-level UI constructs such as data grids and trees and has first-class integration with JavaServer Faces and Struts. Controls: A lightweight, metadata-driven component framework that reduces the complexity of being a client of enterprise resources. Controls provide a unified client abstraction that can be implemented to access a diverse set of enterprise resources using a single configuration model. Web Service Metadata (WSM): An implementation of JSR 181 which standardizes a simplified, annotation-driven model for building Java web services. In addition, Beehive includes a set of system controls that are abstractions for low-level J2EE resource APIs such as EJB, JMS, JDBC, and web services.
