Difference between Java EE 7 and Java EE 6 [closed]

Tags:

What are the main differences between Java EE 7 and Java EE 6 ?

If you would have to explain to another fellow developer the main differences how would you do that ?

As far as the question goes, I was really interested not in the new added technologies, but for the already present ones.

A quick overview would be most than enough for what I'm asking.

To add a further question I'd love to know what major improvements have been added to JAX-WS, JAX-RS and JSF, Is still a Hero task to develop services with Java EE and not rely on external frameworks as Spring for example ?

I think this a really good detailed explanation with already some examples to understand what exactly changed.

Some of the main changes in Java EE 7:

  • Next Version of Webservices
  • Support for JSON
  • Improved Bean-Validation
  • New Version of the Java Message Services (JMS)
