OpenMeetings migrating to openJPA and tighter Spring Integration

The OpenMeetings project is currently developed in several branches for the refactoring to openJPA instead of Hibernate.

As part of this process we have to review a lot of the code and fix it. The overall quality of the app should improve on that a lot. The refactoring is done in several steps:

  • Remove HibernateUtil and all Hibernate references
  • Integrate with Spring Session Config and loader
  • Use Annotated Injection Method of Spring to load all references in Services, Servlets and in Axis2 Web-Service
  • Write Test Cases build with a Mock Interface to test the refactoring

I’m pretty sure this will reveal (and has already :) ) some potential improvements to our implementation.

OpenMeetings SOAP API available as REST too

Actually it was always there … but I think nobody knew it.

To invoke the OpenMeetings SOAP API, you can also use REST instead of SOAP. There are now some docs about it:
