Not in the case of Java EE explicitly. You use libraries to write your Java code, sure, 
just like in Java SE, but there's no link step.

But once you've written a Java EE app, you don't do anything resembling linking. You 
upload the app to the application server, which deploys it for you.

You overemphasize the similarities and ignore the differences.

You can, but that's only the tip of the iceberg.

Whatever. This does not shed light on the use or value (or problems) of Java EE.

Nothing to do with this discussion.

Things are always cognate, but that doesn't make them the same.

All analogies share the characteristic that they break down if carried too far.

That's very different from how you administer a Java EE server.

Really, it's annoying that you don't research this first. Bye.
