Forum/Questions feature request to Github & Google


Hey Github/Google why don't you add a forum/questions feature just like other "wiki" and "issues" features. Today there is no way project adopters can ask direct questions to the project community without creating an issue and this will not scale, simply because many non-contributors do not read issues and answer's them. So eventually we are keeping big knowledge base out of helping others adopt or solve problems.

Lack of this feature simply discourages people asking questions fearing they are spamming the project with issues, and eventually they will end-up not using the product. And on the other hand if you add this feature it will simply create more value, increase user engagement, and addition of new knowledge base to your system.

You might also argue that why we need to duplicate this feature when there are other good sites like StackOverFlow for doing this, but adding or integrating this feature to your products is more natural as users will find it easy to ask questions being in the right context and these questions have higher chance of being discovered and answered very fast by the whole community compare to other places.

If creating a complete system is going to take a lot of time please consider integrating/buying existing solution like StackOverFlow etc.

Access multiple Databases in JPA

According to JPA specification we can define multiple "persistence-unit" elements (i.e. like below) in persistence.xml file and can easily refer them inside Dao layers as this. public class PolarDaoImpl {     @PersistenceContext(unitName="PolarPU")     protected EntityManager entityManager; -- } public class BearDaoImpl {     @PersistenceContext(unitName="BearPU")     protected EntityManager entityManager; -- } Checkout sample persistence.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <persistence version="2.0" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_2_0.xsd">     <!-- Database 1 -->     <persistence-unit name="PolarPU" transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">         <

JPA 2 new feature @ElementCollection explained

@ElementCollection is new annotation introduced in JPA 2.0, This will help us get rid of One-Many and Many-One shitty syntax. Example 1: Stores list of Strings in an Entity @Entity public class Users implements Serializable {     private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;     @Id     @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)     private Long id;     @ElementCollection     private List<String> certifications = new ArrayList <String> ();     public Long getId() {         return id;     }     public void setId(Long id) {         this.id = id;     }     public List <String> getCertifications() {         return certifications;     }     public void setCertifications(List <String> certifications) {         this.certifications = certifications;     } .. }         Users u = new Users();         u.getCertifications().add("Sun Certified Java Programmer");         em.persist(u); Generated Tables    Users    Co

Reuse JPA Entities as DTO

Note : Major design advantages of JPA Entities are they can detached and used across tiers and networks and later can by merged. Checkout this new way of querying entities in JPA 2.0 String ql = " SELECT new prepclass2.Employee (e.firstname, e.lastname) FROM Employee e "; List<Employee> dtos = em.createQuery(ql).getResultList(); The above query loads all Employee entities but with subset of data i.e. firstname, lastname. Employee entity looks like this. @Entity @Table(name="emp") public class Employee implements Serializable {     private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;     @Id     @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)     private Long id;     @Column     private String firstname;     @Column     private String lastname;     @Column     private String username;     @Column     private String street;     @Column     private String city;     @Column     private String state;     @Column     private String zipc
