Understanding CDI (Contexts and Dependency Injection) Part 4

This is Fourth  part of CDI discussion.Please visit part one, part two and  part three


Interceptors
Interceptors is one feature of CDI. Using this feature we can intercept the method call. Its counterpart technique for Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP) in Spring. Its helps to analysis the business methods and these interceptors are disabled by default. so we can enable/disable the interceptor in deployment time through beans.xml  file.

Create interceptor
     To create interceptor involves two step process. first to create interceptor binding and  implement the interceptors.

here we create Log Interceptor, so we need to create Log Interceptor Binding(its  like qualifier)

Log.java


here @InterceptorBinding is represent that the annotation 'Log' is interceptor

second, we need to implement the interceptors

LogImpl.java

here @Interceptor represent that its interceptor implementation
@Log specifies to which interceptor  implementation , both of these lines shows that this  class is Log interceptor Implementation

@AroundInvoke is comes before one method defines
that method must pass the below method signature

         public    Object    <methodName> (InvocationContext context)

here methodName is any name we can give.
in that method call  context.proceed() - to call actual method



so when we call any intercepted method then the container calls this method and here do pre-processing then call actual method through  context.proceed() and finally we can do some post-processing...


Apply Interceptor
Once interceptor is ready, then we can apply any business class
SimeClass.java

here i put @Log in class level. we can put method level also (i.e we can put some methods )

Interceptor is disabled by default. so we need to enable through beans.xml



Through servlet/jsp if u try to call business method of SomeClass class, its do all pre and post processing through interceptors.

Understanding Virtual Host Concept in Tomcat

Hi in this post we will see how to setup virtual host in Apache Tomcat server. Virtual Host is in-built feature that allows to deploy multiple website(domains) in single instance of tomcat server. The main benefit in this way is its cost effective. Scenario: I am going to deploy 3 website with following domain names in single tomcat http://www.ramki.com http://www.krishnan.com http://www.blog.ramki.com The following diagram is my outline. Outline structure of Virtual Host Concept in Tomcat Here my tomcat IP address 192.168.1.15. or any IP address allocated my ISP. but it should be public IP address. How all domain names are pointing to my Tomcat?                   When we purchase the domain name we need to update the our tomcat IP address to it. like or we can simulate same DNS Setup through hosts file in both Linux and Windows. In Linux tha file is located at /etc/hosts Now How Setup Virtual Host Concept? Before going to setup the virtual host. first tak

Virtual Host + Apache httpd server + Tomcat + mod_jk connector

In my last post ( Virtual Host in Tomcat ) we discussed about how setup the virtual host in Tomcat. Its cost effective technique because only one public IP is enough to host multiple domain. If we have big organization and each department want to host their website in locally in different machine. then how to achieve the virtual host concept?. In this post we will see the how we do this. Update :   I posted  Virtual Host + Nginx + Tomcat  Its easy to configure, compare to Apache httpd server Problem Scenario:         In big organization they have multiple department, each department want to host their website in different machine. so these websites are accessed locally with different local IP address. When we mapping to public address then we face the problem. We have two choice either purchase as many public address or Put one server front  and delegate these request.  We going to use 2nd option. we put Apache httpd web server in front of all department servers. so onl

Docker : Tomcat Clustering with Load Balancer (Tomcat and Nginx)

In this post i will show Tomcat Clustering in Docker Container. In  my previous post i discussed how to achieve tomcat clustering with Nginx Front end . Its almost same scenario, but this time we will achieve via docker container. Docker Docker  is an  open-source  project that automates the deployment of  applications  inside  software containers , by providing an additional layer of abstraction and automation of  operating-system-level virtualization  on  Linux . [4]  Docker uses resource isolation features of the Linux kernel  such as  cgroups  and kernel  namespaces  to allow independent "containers" to run within a single Linux instance, avoiding the overhead of starting and maintaining  virtual machine   --Wikipedia
