Architects of buildings and architects of software have more in common than most people think. Both professions require attention to detail, and both practitioners will see their work collapse around them if they make too many mistakes.Показать полностьюArchitects of buildings and architects of software have more in common than most people think. Both professions require attention to detail, and both practitioners will see their work collapse around them if they make too many mistakes. It’s impossible to imagine a world in which buildings get built without blueprints, but it’s still common for software applications to be designed and built without blueprints, or in this case, design patterns. A software design pattern can be identified as "a recurring solution to a recurring problem." Using design patterns for software development makes sense in the same way that architectural design patterns make sense — if it works well in one place, why not use it in another? But developers have had enough of books that simply catalog design patterns without extending into new areas, and books that are so theoretical that you can't actually do anything better after reading them than you could before you started. Crawford and Kaplan’s J2EE Design Patterns approaches the subject in a unique, highly practical and pragmatic way. Rather than simply present another catalog of design patterns, the authors broaden the scope by discussing ways to choose design patterns when building an enterprise application from scratch, looking closely at the real world tradeoffs that Java developers must weigh when architecting their applications. Then they go on to show how to apply the patterns when writing realworld software. They also extend design patterns into areas not covered in other books, presenting original patterns for data modeling, transaction / process modeling, and interoperability. J2EE Design Patterns offers extensive coverage of the five problem areas enterprise developers face: * Maintenance (Extensibility) * Performance (System Scalability) * Data Modeling (Business Object Modeling) * Transactions (process Modeling) * Messaging (Interoperability) And with its careful balance between theory and practice, J2EE Design Patterns will give developers new to the Java enterprise development arena a solid understanding of how to approach a wide variety of architectural and procedural problems, and will give experienced J2EE pros an opportunity to extend and improve on their existing experience.

With the introduction of JSF, we can finally create user interfaces simply with a set of reusable components. And with a component-based framework, Web applications are finally on a more level playing field with client-based User Interface (UI) frameworks such as Swing. Now, Web developers will be able to use and reuse components off the shelf in their applications so we will see tool support and components implemented for JSF.

Servlets and JavaServer Pages is the first complete guide to building dynamic Java-based Web applications using the new JavaServer Pages 2.0 and Servlets 2.4.Показать полностьюServlets and JavaServer Pages is the first complete guide to building dynamic Java-based Web applications using the new JavaServer Pages 2.0 and Servlets 2.4. Servlets and JavaServer Pages (JSP) provide a robust solution to developing large, complex Web applications, including multiserver projects. In addition to built-in security, portability, and a Web server, they offer developers the freedom to work with any operating system that supports Javabe it Linux, Windows, OSX, or Solaris. This authoritative book begins by explaining how to set up a Servlet and JSP development environment, including a discussion of containers, Java support, and installing and configuring Tomcat. The authors then thoroughly explore servlets and JSP, including significant coverage of custom tag libraries, newly available filters, and popular servlet and JSP design patterns. Readers can then test-drive the knowledge gained by constructing a book-support Web site.

As is often the case, there were some rough spots as the JSP specification went through major changes along the way. Hair was pulled, teeth were gnashed, lessons were learned.Показать полностьюAs is often the case, there were some rough spots as the JSP specification went through major changes along the way. Hair was pulled, teeth were gnashed, lessons were learned. Fortunately, we obtained a great deal of help from the JSP community—the developers at Sun and the other JSP vendors, as well as our fellow early adopters. This book thus serves a twofold purpose. First, we hope to help future users of JSP by sharing the hard-earned lessons of our experience. We offer them what we hope is a helpful guide to the current JSP feature set: JavaServer Pages is now at version 1.1 and the need for published reference material has long been recognized.

This book is intended to fill the gap between books on J2EE and those on XML. It demystifies the buzzwords, contains frank discussions on the capabilities and appropriate use of various enterprise Java and XML tools, and provides a logical context for deciding how to structure your XML-enabled J2EE applications. We hope you enjoy it.

Test-driven development was first introduced as part of the extreme programming (XP) paradigm. While not everyone agrees with all aspects of XP, most developers believe in the benefits of test-driven development.Показать полностьюTest-driven development was first introduced as part of the extreme programming (XP) paradigm. While not everyone agrees with all aspects of XP, most developers believe in the benefits of test-driven development. Although the basic techniques of test-driven development are simple to understand, its application in the real world requires knowledge of certain tools and techniques needed to effectively create, run and organize tests. This book is targeted at Java developers who want to learn how to use test-driven development to improve the development process for constructing J2EE applications.

The underlying theme of the book is the three zeroes goal for server-development—zero development, zero administration, and zero deployment. This is laudable, because very few software developers (and fewer authors) like to talk about administration or deployment.Показать полностьюThe underlying theme of the book is the three zeroes goal for server-development—zero development, zero administration, and zero deployment. This is laudable, because very few software developers (and fewer authors) like to talk about administration or deployment. As a result, these aspects of products are frequently built last, and designed never. Ted also starts you on the right path for writing those first lines of code, by demonstrating how to use oft-misunderstood platform features such as ClassLoaders, Serialization, threads, and JNI.
