Hi Each,
I'm from northwest of Germany. I did development with Java SE Desktop Technologies until Java 1.8. No imagine what's going on today with Java. Where is Java now 16, 17 or already 20? Ops, you are already at 22. I developed a tool a couple of years ago, called Monitor. It's developed with Java 1.3 and within JBuilder. Maybe some of you are remembering the IDE.
I've asked myself today, does it make sense to use JavaBeans in the future for the creation of Beans and use JAF for activation and integration in the Monitor application? What is the state-of-the-Art today to create a specific kind of plugins for an existing desktop application? Spring Framework?
I've read in the web docs a strongly marked note about Java Tutorials:
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/javabeans/
The Java Tutorials have been written for JDK 8. Examples and practices described in this page don't take advantage of improvements introduced in later releases and might use technology no longer available.
See Java Language Changes for a summary of updated language features in Java SE 9 and subsequent releases.
See JDK Release Notes for information about new features, enhancements, and removed or deprecated options for all JDK releases.
Diving from the surface https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/desktop.html deeper into the JavaBeans Technologies I've found also some of the links at O website already broken:
https://netbeans.apache.org/wiki/main/wiki/NetBeansJavaBeansTutorial.html
or doesn't really exists:
Java Forum: JavaBeans

Thanks,
