Journal FortKnox's Journal: J2EE People? 29
My company is desperately looking to fill in more people for contracts (looks like the java world is the first to really rebound).
If you have a good deal of J2EE experience (struts is a definate plus), gimmie a buzz, or if you are an architect level J2EE person, gimmie a buzz.

BTW - On the FFL, I have been superbusy, and will hopefully get back to you later this evening or early tomorrow with a draft order and an email.

I think I should go down the hall and make a pot right now and then strut back to my desk and maybe... crow like a proud rooster!

I can write "Hello, world!" in Java, doesn't that count? :-P
You've already got one up on most of the J2EE developers where I work then.

What kind of work is it? Java wasn't really my cup of tea initially (OTOH, I hated C when I first met it, at Oxford in '96 (just a short course - my degree's from a better place :), then went on to love it...) but I've been starting to like it the last few years. My main bugbear was the old "Java's perf

Sounds pretty interesting. I'm sort-of looking for work (either starting my own company to sell a spam-filtered high-performance mail server I developed, or working if I can get a good position somewhere in the US) - I tend to be a more low-level guy, but what, where,

It's much better than it was, but it still sucks in many ways, particularly startup costs. But my main complaint is the lacking of debugging info available. Oh, and the development environment designed to break development tools (like make, for instance). And the bloated class libraries. And the fact that Java developers insist on reinventing the wheel... badly. Can you tell it's not my favourite language? :-)

Anyhow, if you were just jumping in I'd recommend a couple from Wrox Publishing. Been a while since I picked up just a strait J2SE book, but I would expect Beginning Java 2, SDK 1.4 Edition [wrox.com] what the author did with his C++ book. One of the more dog-eared books on my shelf is Professional JSP - a bit dated now, and I can't speak to the new 2.0 release. Lots of examples in the JSP one. Wrox is us

Learning EJB's: watch out for O'Reilly's Enterprise JavaBeans book. I thought it gave a great overview to the whole struggle, but there are few pieces of example code that aren't wrong. Check out the errata page on their website... it scrolls for miles. That book needs a serious code review. Definitely not up to O'Reilly's usual level of quality.
So for example code, check out the stuff that ships with JBoss, if you're using that. I like JBoss, but I'm no

Which just goes to show I need to learn Java and get that Sun Cert.

Just because the technology is popular in general, doesn't mean it will be popular in your specific area.

Purpose of getting the Sun cert is just to prove I know it since I won't be able to get job experience.
