Jiplet 0.0.4a released
The Jiplet Container now has better support for JBOSS
September 11, 2005,
Raleigh, NC.
We are pleased to announce the public release of Jiplet
Container
r0.0.4a. This is an Alpha release to give users a preview of the
system.
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
authroization, 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.
- Support for deployable realms: Now you can deploy your own
realms using context-like deployment and undeployment. You can also use
the jiplet console for deploying and undeploying realms.
- The jiplet container running as a JBOSS service now
supports bundling of SIP archives (SPR) and SIP realms (SRR) into a
Enterprise Archive (EAR).
- The system admin can now override the context mapping
provided in the deployment descriptor during the installation of a
jiplet context. This allows a
service provider to have better control of jiplet contexts from
multiple vendors running in the service provider's system.
- A number of improvements have been made to the jiplet
console. You can now add and remove realms, override context mapping,
view the properties of the connectors, etc.
- A number of bug fixes have also been made.
