[275 byte] By [PossumKing64] at [2007-9-26 5:32:49] 
I have been reading and learning about J2EE Patternsvia the "Core J2EE Patterns" book. But I have alsoheard other developers talk about "J2EE BluePrints".Are they the same? How do they relate to eachother? Thanks
No, the blueprints are sort of best-practice recommendations for J2EE applications.

No not exactly, however they are complementary.

The J2ee Core Patterns are generalised Architechture/System Design examples, They don't include an implementaion [yet]. Consider the metaphor of the concept of a suspension bridge).
The Blue Prints are actually design's and implementations, that follow some of the patterns to solve a particular requirement. Consider the metaphor GoldenGate Bridge).
