Developing a framework in Java [closed]

Question

I'm looking forward to start developing a new server side enterprise communication framework in Java and I'm wondering if anyone knows a good book on the subject? Some best practices and advice would be welcome.

Thanks.

Answer 1

"Practical API Design: Confessions of a Java Framework Architect" by Jaroslav Tulach (NetBeans architect) sounds like the best fit you're going to find.

But the best advice on developing new frameworks is: don't. Especially if you have to ask. It's very unlikely that you'll do a better job than all the people who wrote the multitude of frameworks already out there.
