Sun Microsystems is a multinational vendor of computers, computer software and hardware, and information technology services.
A Java programming language object that implements the behaviour of a custom tag.
Industry:Computer
Indicates how data between a client and a Web container should be protected. The protection can be the prevention of tampering with the data or prevention of eavesdropping on the data.
Industry:Computer
A Java programme that extends the functionality of a Web server, generating dynamic content and interacting with Web applications using a request-response paradigm.
Industry:Computer
In XML documents, a piece of text that describes a unit of data or an element. The tag is distinguishable as markup, as opposed to data, because it is surrounded by angle brackets (< and >). To treat such markup syntax as data, you use an entity reference or a CDATA section.
Industry:Computer
A Java interface that declares the methods that a client can invoke on a Web service.

In the Solaris environment, function calls inside libraries are either mt-safe or not mt-safe; mt-safe code is also called "re-entrant" code. That is, several threads can simultaneously call a given function in a module and it is up to the function code to handle this. The assumption is that data shared between threads is only accessed by module functions. If mutable global data is available to clients of a module, appropriate locks must also be made visible in the interface. Furthermore, the module function cannot be made re-entrant unless the clients are assumed to use the locks consistently and at appropriate times. See also single-lock strategy.
Industry:Computer
A Java class that can render the output for a set of JavaServer Faces UI components.

In the single-lock strategy, a thread acquires a single, application-wide mutex lock whenever any thread in the application is running and releases the lock before the thread blocks. The single-lock strategy requires cooperation from all modules and libraries in the system to synchronise on the single lock. Because only one thread can be accessing shared data at any given time, each thread has a consistent view of memory. This strategy is quite effective in a uniprocessor, provided shared memory is put into a consistent state before the lock is released and that the lock is released often enough to allow other threads to run. Furthermore, in uniprocessor systems, concurrency is diminished if the lock is not dropped during most I/O operations. The single-lock strategy cannot be applied in a multiprocessor system.
Industry:Computer
A Java class that can be manipulated by tools and composed into applications. A JavaBeans component must adhere to certain property and event interface conventions.
