Apache Beehive is an excellent J2EE framework intended on making J2EE applications easier to develop. WebLogic Workshop has some excellent Beehive support and thanks to BEA Senior Systems Engineer James Bayer, you now have two code samples to help showcase Workshop's Beehive support.

The big idea behind these code samples was to take the Beehive Petstore example and convert it from a standard Ant-based project to a Workshop project. This conversion makes using Workshop to play around with the Petstore easier. Since these code samples make it so you can use Workshop to run, debug and play around with the Beehive Petstore example, you now have access to Workshop's plugins for developing Beehive applications. Here are just a few examples of what the Workshop plugins provide for Beehive applications:

• Visual editing and viewing of page flows
• Design palettes for NetUI tag development in JSPs
• Controls annotation tooling

The Beehive Petstore example makes it easy to experiment with Beehive development and the Workshop tooling around them thanks to this project being a fully-functioning project. This means you do not have to learn new tooling while writing a new application. Below is the information about the new code samples:

Thanks James for your submissions.

Take care,

Jeremy
