This book is a practical tool for Java^TM® programmers. It provides the necessary information for finding, evaluating and selecting an application framework for programming needs. It explains in plain language the benefits of frameworks and component technologies, specifically in relation to web application development. The book is unique: it does not focus on any specific technology, and uses examples from several different frameworks to explain the underlying principles. As the market for web applications begins its second wave, this volume provides the critical information for developers to make the transition into componentized framework-based development, keeping them ahead in an increasingly competitive market.

Fra bagsiden: As a platform, Java defines the services needed to connect binary components at runtime safely and reliably. To truly take advantage of alle Java has to offer, you must consider not just development, but also deployment, and not just objects, but also components. The book delves into the component-oriented features of the Java platform, thoroughly discussing class loading, refelction, serialization, native interoperation and code generation.

Enterprise Java Beans (EJB) is a server-side component architecture and a central part of the J2EE platform. EJB enables the rapid development of distributed, secure and portable Java applications. This follow-up title to Professional Java Server Programming - J2EE Edition goes from design principles and theory right through to building robust real-world applications and concludes with several case studies including EJB applications and COM integration. Published to coincide with the EJB 2.0 specification this book is an in-depth guide to every aspect of this component architecture.

A comprehensive guide to the state-of-the-art and current research in object-oriented frameworks, this book covers the fundamentals and evolution of OOP, the commercial and public-domain frameworks now available, and examples of framework technology. It also includes coverage of Microsoft's MFC and the visual, object-oriented language Prograph.

Java is now well-established as one of the world’s major programming languages, used in everything from desktop applications to web-hosted applications, enterprise systems and mobile devices. Java applications cover cloud-based services, the Internet of Things, self-driving cars, animation, game development, big data analysis and many more domains. The second edition of Foundational Java: Key Elements and Practical Programming presents a detailed guide to the core features of Java – and some more recent innovations – enabling the reader to build their skills and confidence though tried-and-trusted stages, supported by exercises that reinforce the key learning points. All the most useful and commonly applied Java syntax and libraries are introduced, along with many example programs that can provide the basis for more substantial applications. Use of the Eclipse Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and the JUnit testing framework is integral to the book, ensuring maximum productivity and code quality when learning Java, although to ensure that skills are not confined to one environment the fundamentals of the Java compiler and run time are also explained. Additionally, coverage of the Ant tool will equip the reader with the skills to automatically build, test and deploy applications independent of an IDE. Topics and features: • Presents the most up-to-date information on Java, including Java 14 • Examines the key theme of unit testing, introducing the JUnit 5 testing framework to emphasize the importance of unit testing in modern software development • Describes the Eclipse IDE, the most popular open source Java IDE and explains how Java can be run from the command line • Includes coverage of the Ant build tool • Contains numerous code examples and exercises throughout • Provides downloadable source code, self-test questions, PowerPoint slides and other supplementary material at the website http://www.foundjava.com This hands-on, classroom-tested textbook/reference is ideal for undergraduate students on introductory and intermediate courses on programming with Java. Professional software developers will also find this an excellent self-study guide/refresher on the topic. Dr. David Parsons is National Postgraduate Director at The Mind Lab, Auckland, New Zealand. He has been teaching programming in both academia and industry since the 1980s and writing about it since the 1990s.

Ajax (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) is the ultimate web programming methodology for producing dynamic, rich web experiences. Java developers are crying out for guides showing how to add Ajax functionality to web applications, and this book meets their needs with Pro Ajax and Java. This is the book every Java developer needs to become expert in Ajax. The authors provide the reader with the perfect Java/Ajax toolkit to get started quickly, exploring Ajax development in detail using the 4 most popular Java web application frameworks: Struts, Spring, JSF, and Tapestry.

Although industry has been leveraging the advancements of component-oriented development and assembly (CODA) technology for some time, there has long been a need for a book that provides a complete overview of the multiple technologies that support CODA. Filling this need, Component-Oriented Development and Assembly supplies comprehensive coverage
