Being productive developer using JPA helper libraries
Standard JPA has proved to do the mapping part really well, but quite many JPA developers spend way too much time writing and debugging JPQL/Criteria queries. What if you could just take the good parts of JPA and somebody else would write your queries? Helper libraries like DeltaSpike Data and QueryDSL will help you get there. Using a practical full stack Java EE example, you'll learn to write less queries, write the remaining ones faster and write them so that they work with the first run. DeltaSpike Data helps to write the first version of your DAO in a snap and automatically writes most queries for you, based on your method names only! QueryDSL lets you build your complex JPA queries with an intuitive and well typed API.
