JBoss Remote Debug and Port Configuration


Is quite common you need debug JBoss remotely, basically you may have an Linux server running it for Development or QA environment.

In order to be able to debug JBoss in your machine you just need change one configuration file.

Open the file $JBOSS_HOME\bin\run.conf in your favorite text editor an serach for this lines:

# Sample JPDA settings for remote socket debugging
# JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8787,server=y,suspend=n"

You new uncoment the last line, like the following sample:

# Sample JPDA settings for remote socket debugging<br>JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8787,server=y,suspend=n"<br>

The parameter address is the port that JBoss will be listing to remote debug. Now you can open eclipse an run and remote debug like the following sample:

1. Create a new Remote Java Application Debug configuration.
2. Select your project, remember that must be an EAR or WAR(You can use jar but in this case must be on EJB or JMX).
3. Set up the ip and port adress

And this is it you are ready to debug your JBoss remotely.

Creating a New Profile or Change Port Configuration

Sometimes is very useful create new profiles for your application. JBoss let you do that very easly use can copy and paste any of the standard profiles like: default, web or all and you just need chnage the port.

Open the following file in your favorite text editor:
$JBOSS_HOME\server\\conf\bindingservice.beans\META-INF\bindings-jboss-beans.xml

: This is your profile folder could be: default, all ,ejb or other that you created in the previous step.

Look for this;


<constructor><br>     <!-- The name of the set of bindings to use for this server --><br>      <parameter>${jboss.service.binding.set:ports-default}</parameter><br>

Change for the following configuration:


<constructor><br>      <!-- The name of the set of bindings to use for this server --><br>      <parameter>${jboss.service.binding.set:ports-01}</parameter> 

JBoss have 4 pre-built port configurations available that you can use. If you need more than 4 you can play with the offset configuration:
<!-- The port offset --><br><parameter>100</parameter>

Enjoy. :D

Cheers

Kafka Streams with Java 15

Image
Kafka Streams is a Streaming library similar to Spark and Flink which works with Apache Kafka. Kafka stream can be useful to process historical and near-real-time big data workloads but also for non-realtime analytical computations at scale for the online world as well. Kafka-Streams is elastic, highly scalable, fault-tolerant, and fully integrated with Kafka. You can use Kafka Stream with Java, Scala, Kotlin JVM applications and also have exactly-once processing semantics. Kafka-Streams is being used by the New York Times, Pinterest, Line, Trivago, Zalando, and many other companies. Today I want to share a video of Kafka-Streams running with Kafka 2.6 and Java JDK 15. So Let's get started.

Rust and Java Interoperability

Image
Rust does not stop for one second to amaze me. It looks like Rust was designed to talk to every other language so easily. No kidding, it's clear way Web Assembly and rust have lots in common. Java is never an easy lang to interop with. Today I will show how easily we can interop Java & Rust. In order to do so, we will need to use the Java and Rust compilers. For Java, we will not require any other lib than the standard JDK. For Rust, we will need to create a lib project in cargo and we will need to use the crate JNI. I love this feature because java does not allow low-level code on the main language. So if we need to do something low level, efficiently Rust is my first choice, not only for safety reasons but because is really fast.  Let's get started.

HMAC in Java

Image
In 2018 AWS CTO(Vogels) said : "Security is everyone's job". For the last 2 years, there was so many famous and big data leaks and breaks that made that statement be very true more than ever. Security often could mean worst performance and worst user experience so in order to get it right you really need to think about the designs before jumping into to code and consider performance and user experience has main requirements.  I was thinking about writing about how to do HMAC in Java for a while and recently Redis 6.0.0 come out and to my surprise, there was a refactoring on the password part in order to use HMAC.  Security easily could scare engineers often because it is not something well spread yet but I believe this will change soon. It does not matter if you have to deal with PII Data or not, security is super relevant because everybody is running their workloads at the cloud or with IoT and Edge devices which means more distribution, more code, more points of fail
