Jiplet 0.0.9b released
Rich System Administration Capabilities using the New Jiplet
Console
Sep 02, 2006,
Raleigh, NC.
We are pleased to announce the public release of Jiplet
Container
r0.0.9b. In this release, we have re-written the system admin user
interface using a new technology from Google. This new technology will
enable us to create user-friendly interfaces for all our projects while
still retaining the advantages of a web-based user interface.
Jiplet is short for Java SIP Servlet. The Jiplet Container is an
open-source container for server-side SIP applications. An application
developer can create a SIP application written in Java using the Jiplet
API and deploy the application in the container. The container provides
a number of framework services including support for SIP message
parsing and formatting, scoped variables, authentication and
authorization, thread-pooling, logging, custom class loading,
management interface, etc. It enables application developer to create
server-side SIP applications using a component-based model similar to
that envisioned by the J2EE architecture. In fact, it fits very well
with the J2EE paradigm for software development and deployment. The
jiplet container software can either be run as a standalone Java
application or deployed as a service residing in a J2EE server. When
running as a J2EE service, the jiplet container can access many of the
features offered by the J2EE server. In addition, The jiplet container
is built with the service provider model in mind. In this model, a
service provider can host customized SIP applications from their
customers in a secure manner similar to the servlet hosting offered by
many service providers.
The
following are the highlights of the release.
- The Jiplet Console (system administration user interface)
has been re-written using the Google Web Toolkit (GWT). The console now
provides an easy to use interface taking full advantage of the rich
user interface that GWT provides.
- The directory structure has been refactored to divide the
project into logical components with the idea that each of these
components can be treated as separate projects that can be built
independently.
- The automated tests for the project now works properly.
- A number of bugs that were found have been fixed.
