Abstract

LEAF, the Lean and Extensible Architectural Framework, is an enhancement wrapper for J2EE implementations. Basically, LEAF fixes some identified J2EE issues and extends, as well as simplifies, the use of the J2EE by providing several incremental improvements. These improvements are seamlessly integrated, include an additional component type, allow the same interfaces for local and remote service implementations, offer better J2EE implementation compatibility and ORB interceptors, and encompass several new technical services. This paper explains the need for LEAF through a diagnosis of the J2EE, presents the fundamental concepts underlying LEAF, overviews its implementation, reports on field experiences from using it in a number of commercial projects, and points out some interesting tradeoffs in using the J2EE with and without LEAF.

Java version history

The Java language has undergone several changes since JDK 1.0 as well as numerous additions of classes and packages to the standard library. Since J2SE 1.4, the evolution of the Java language has been governed by the Java Community Process (JCP), which uses Java Specification Requests (JSRs) to propose and specify additions and changes to the Java platform. The language is specified by the Java Language Specification (JLS); changes to the JLS are managed under JSR 901.

Java Platform, Micro Edition

Java Platform, Micro Edition or Java ME is a computing platform for development and deployment of portable code for embedded and mobile devices (micro-controllers, sensors, gateways, mobile phones, personal digital assistants, TV set-top boxes, printers). Java ME was formerly known as Java 2 Platform, Micro Edition or J2ME. As of December 22, 2006, the Java ME source code is licensed under the GNU General Public License, and is released under the project name phoneME. The platform uses the object-oriented Java programming language.

Jazelle

Jazelle DBX (direct bytecode execution) is an extension that allows some ARM processors to execute Java bytecode in hardware as a third execution state alongside the existing ARM and Thumb modes. Jazelle functionality was specified in the ARMv5TEJ architecture and the first processor with Jazelle technology was the ARM926EJ-S. Jazelle is denoted by a "J" appended to the CPU name, except for post-v5 cores where it is required (albeit only in trivial form) for architecture conformance.
