Why is that an issue?  Typically you can include custom build procedures 
in a build tool / framework.

If you are on an JEE application server that will usually take care of 
the concurrency.  You typically need to use those APIs the JEE spec or 
AS at hand provides to not interfere with the framework in bad ways 
(e.g. by breaking transactions).  That does not seem like a bad option 
although AS come with their own learning curve.

"Making a POJO multi-core capable" is meaningless.  Using concurrency is 
more like an architectural property of your application (even though you 
need to take care to use POJOs properly - but it's not enough to make 
POJOs thread safe).  At this point I am suspecting that someone told you 
modern Java programs must use multiple cores and you want to get it done 
easily.  Unfortunately that won't work: you need to understand the 
particular issues associated with concurrency to properly craft such 
applications - even if you use a framework that takes away a large part 
of the work from you.

Kind regards
