The technology mashup
Antidoto uses Maven 2.0 to define compile time dependencies between subsystems. Using maven2 we have transitive dependencies and dependency mediation out of the box.
Spring 2.0 is used to define the runtime dependencies in and between the subsystems. Spring not only has a powerful dependency injection container with AOP capabilities, but also provides a thin integration layer to its programming model and pojo based configuration to many other technologies.
Antidoto provides a thin modularization layer to further technologies, more to come. The hello world example here is the distributed configuration of Log4J logger categories and levels across subsystems.
As of today Antidoto offers modularization of:
- Log4J logging
- Hibernate persistence
- JSF and Facelets configuration and resources
