SCA and Java • SCA provides support for multiple Java-based component implementation types • Java POJOs (implementation.java) • Spring Beans (implementation.spring) • EJB (implementation.ejb) • Common annotations and API • May be used by all Java-based implementations • Metadata service contracts based on Java interfaces • Metadata component type information • Metadata container-component implementation contract • Asynchronous interactions and callbacks • APIs (few) for accessing assembly information
An example Java implementation type • Just Java with a few (optional) annotations public class LoanServiceImpl implements LoanService { private CreditService creditService; public LoanServiceImpl(@Reference CreditService creditService) { this.creditService = creditService; } public void apply(Application application) { String id = application.getCustomerID(); int rating = creditService.getCreditScore(id); } }
Key Principles • Simplify component development • Use POJOs • Minimal container coupling to implementations • Achieved through Inversion of Control or IoC • Simplify reuse through service-based design • Strongly defined contracts that pass data • Remove need to interact directly with binding protocols and transports most of the time • Focus on loosely-coupled interactions
Metadata for Service Contracts • @Remotable • Defines a service that may be visible across process boundaries • @Conversational, @EndsConversation • Deals with conversational services • More on this later • @OneWay • Denotes a non-blocking operation • More on this later • @Callback • Defines callback interface and injection
Metadata for defining component type information • @Service • Defines services offered by an implementation • @Property • Identifies a component type property • Setter-based, ctor-based and field-based injection supported • @Reference • Identifies a component type reference • Setter-based, ctor-based and field-based injection supported • SCA defines heuristics for unannotated POJOs as well
Container-Component Implementation Contract Metadata • @AllowsPassByReference • Per-class or per-operation • @Scope • Specifies visibility and lifecycle contract • STATELESS (default), REQUEST, CONVERSATION, COMPOSITE • Containers may also add custom scopes • Conversation semantics • Always between two parties • May be long-running
Asynchronous Interactions • @OneWay • Indicate a non-blocking call on an interface public interface Counter { int getCount(); @OneWay void increment(); @EndsConversation int reset(); }
Callbacks • Stateful and stateless • Non-blocking or blocking @Callback(MyCallback.class) public interface MyService { void call(); } public interface MyCallback { void call(); } public class MyServiceImpl { @Callback public void setCallback(MyCallback callback){ //... } //... }
Stateful Callbacks • LoanShark service Conversational @Callback(Borrower.class) public interface LoanShark { void borrow(double amount); @EndsConversation void payback(); @OneWay void delay(); } public interface Borrower { warn(); breakArm(); @EndsConversation kill(); }
APIs • Only a few, deal with specific use cases, e.g. • Component context, name • Request contexts • Service references (may be passed) • Conversation id • Set callback

Spring • Spring application contexts can be used as component implementations • Spring beans can be wired to SCA or external services services • Spring beans can have services exposed • Other SCA components may be wired to them • Beans may be bound using an SCA binding Spring Beans SCA Service SCA Reference implementation.spring
www.oasis-open.org SCA - Java EE Integration
www.oasis-open.org Why SCA With Java EE Platform? Java EE gets • Additional implementation types and bindings on the application level: • BPEL, Spring,... • More to expect: For example ESB style interactions • Move protocol specifics to configuration via bindings • Cross-Application Assembly • Domain assembly extends Enterprise App Assembly to the cross-app level SCA gets • Reuse of existing assets, know-how, tooling.
www.oasis-open.org Types of Integration • Bindings • JMS, Session Beans, JCA • Implementation Types • Java EE Components (SessionBeans, WebComponents, etc) asimplementation types. • Java EE Archives (EARs, WARs, EJB-JARs) as implementation types.
www.oasis-open.org Use Cases for Bindings Binding.ejb • Consume session beans from service components • Expose SCA services as session beans, so that they can be consumed by unmodified Java EE components Binding.jms, Binding.jca • Several other binding types relate to Java EE, but are the focus of other working groups.
www.oasis-open.org Use Cases for Java EE Components as Implementation Types • Java EE components use SCA‘s programming model to consume SCA-exposed services. • Use session beans as Service Component Implementations that may be consumed by other SCA components. • Use recursive SCA assembly in enterprise applications. • DeploySCA Components as a part of a Java EE application SCA is the Scale-Out model for Java EE
www.oasis-open.org Use Cases for Java EE Applications as Implementation Types • Use Java EE applications as Service Component Implementations • Modified • Unmodified • Allow unmodified Java EE applications to be rewired by SCA. • Exposure of Java EE services at any level of recursive assembly. SCA is the level of assembly above Java EE
Programming Model in JEE Components • Will be shown during demo:

Open Questions • What is the componentType of an unmodified EAR (ie, one with no application.composite)? • Can ejb-ref‘s be rewired by SCA?
