Sure, Java EE covers everything but the corner cases... but why, oh why are there so many corner cases?! Java EE rocks, it really does. I'm usually quite happy working with it. But it strikes me -- while it handles nearly everything but the corner cases, it leaves so many corner cases as to make itself less useful than it could or should be. It's the Achilles' heel of Java. For example, look at my recent travails with getting a JMS destination populated for an EIS component. This shouldn't be that big of a deal, really, considering that I've an inbound EIS component that communicates with a resource in JNDI.
