This course develops skills in using the Object/Relational Mapping tool Hibernate®. The course uses the latest release version of Hibernate, 3.2, which is directly related to the new EJB 3.0 version defined in Java EE 5.0. By the end of the course, students will be prepared to set-up and use Hibernate as the persistence mechanism in Java applications.
This four-day course develops skills in JavaServer Pages, or JSP, which is the standard means of authoring dynamic content for Web applications under the Java Enterprise platform. It treats JSP 2.0, including older features such as scriptlets but focusing on newer features and techniques, including JSP expressions and the JSTL. At the end of the course, students will be well prepared to author JSPs for small- or large-scale Web applications, either "by hand" (they use only a text editor in class) or using an authoring tool. The first module begins with an introduction of Web applications in general, shows how Java servlets and JSPs establish a framework for writing Web applications, and then covers JSP 2.0 features in detail, from scripting elements to use of dedicated JavaBeans to JSP expressions, and quick introductions of JSTL and custom tag development. By the end of the module students will be able to create their own JSP applications, including interactive applications using HTML forms and pages that perform fairly complex processing using scripts and or actions. Although scripting is covered, the scriptless authoring style encouraged by the JSP 2.0 specification is emphasized, and students will be well equipped to develop concise and effective JSP applications. The second module covers the JSTL, or JSP Standard Tag Library, actually a set of four custom tag libraries that establish a portable standard for common processing tasks in JSP. JSTL is a major part of the new scriptless authoring style encouraged (and enabled) by the JSP 2.0 specification. This module covers all four JSTL libraries in depth: The core actions, which support JSP expressions for JSP 1.x containers, flow control for procedural processing in JSPs, and resource access. The formatting and internationalization/localization actions, which standardize formatted numeric and date/time output as well as multi-language support. The SQL actions, which dramatically simplify access to relational data from a JSP. The XML actions, which give JSPs a simple, powerful framework by which to parse, address and transform XML data using XPath and XSLT. Each individual tag in each library is covered, with precise syntactic rules shown in a standard format in the student guide, and JSTL techniques and best practices are discussed for each library. An extensive set of example applications illustrates common usage of each major group of actions, and the module culminates with a wrap-up workshop that brings core, SQL, and XML techniques to bear in a single application.
This course introduces the JavaServer Faces API for Java Web application development. Proceeding from a foundation of Java, Servlets, and JSP, the course develops the best-practice concepts of MVC architecture and command-object encapsulation that propel the JSF architecture. Students create JSF Web applications by organizing their pages as JSF component trees, and their server-side code as JSF managed beans and controllers. They add data-conversion and validation logic and learn to work with JSF's data-table control.
Then, we change our perspective a bit and start thinking in terms of reusable component libraries -- using them and also developing them. Custom components prove to be the ideal delivery vehicle for JavaScript in JSF applications, and ultimately serve as the backbone of a robust Java/Ajax architecture. We work with two popular component libraries along the way -- Tomahawk and RichFaces -- and also get a look at Direct Web Remoting, or DWR.
This practical, application-oriented Java training course teaches Java Servlets, JDBC and JSP and shows how to use it to develop simple to complex database-driven Web applications. It is intended for experienced Java (J2SE) programmers who want to build Web applications or J2EE components and systems.
This advanced course shows experienced developers of Java web applications how to secure those applications and to apply best practices with regard to secure enterprise coding. Authentication, authorization, and input validation are major themes, and students get good exposure to basic Java cryptography for specific development scenarios, as well as thorough discussions of HTTPS configuration and certificate management, error handling, logging, and auditing.
This course provides a coherent, high-level explanation of the Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE): what sorts of software are created with Java EE; how software is developed for this platform; how it is deployed and put into production; how it can be administered. The course is designed specifically for non-programmers -- analysts, managers, technical writers, and anyone who desires a good conceptual understanding of Java EE while not needing to drill down into the details of particular APIs or runtime specifications. Developers may also find this course quite useful as a starting point for one or more of our courses in specific Java EE technology -- it gives a great sense of the big picture before one dives into the details of Servlets, JSP, JSF, EJB, or Java web services. The course is presented seminar-style, with no hands-on exercises for students and no need for lab equipment. The instructor demonstrates several sample Java EE applications, including web applications, EJBs, JMS, and web services, and can go into source code and other details to suit the interests of the audience. But the focus is on architecture, and on boiling down a very complex system to its essential features: code portability, components and containers, metadata and declarative development. Students come to understand the roles that various Java EE technologies play in a multi-tier, enterprise application, and acquire the terminology and basic workings of each.
This course introduces the Ajax programming model for web applications, and guides Java developers through the sometimes bewildering array of approaches to adding Ajax functionality into their web applications. We start with a tour of basic browser programming, using JavaScript, the HTML DOM, and CSS. Then, students learn how to establish communication between their on-page JavaScripts and server-side application components, and thus to develop richer, more user-friendly and responsive web applications. We pursue Ajax connectivity entirely from the client side in this first module, at several levels. From an initial study of the bare-bones approach using the XMLHttpRequest browser object, we move on to consider programming techniques for thread safety, and use of higher-level script libraries such as Prototype and Dojo. Then we analyze the challenges of supporting Ajax from the server side, going beyond simple Ajax request-handling strategies to consider goals such as: Adhering to the model/view/controller pattern Minimizing duplication of business and presentation logic Providing Ajax code transparent access to the application's domain model Reuse mechanisms such as JSP tag files and JSF facelets are also considered. We then look at two of the dominant forms of Ajax framework: the RMI approach, and JSF component libraries. For each class of tool we investigate two popular options -- DWR and jabsorb; RichFaces and Trinidad -- and use that comparison to discover the broader architectural patterns of that approach. Students will complete the course ready to make intelligent choices of Ajax tooling for their applications, and to start working with their chosen framework.
This course introduces the experienced Java developer to Enterprise JavaBeans -- the Java EE standard for scalable, secure, and transactional Java components. EJB 3.0 has reinvigorated this area of Java enterprise development, with dramatic improvements in ease of use and smooth integration with servlet-based or JSF web applications. This course treats the 3.0 specification, with a few notes on 2.1 compatibility but an emphasis on doing things the 3.0 way. Students get an overview of the EJB rationale and architecture, and then dive right into creating session beans and entities. The new dependency-injection features of EJB3 cause perhaps the most confusion, so we work through a chapter devoted explicitly to DI and JNDI, and basically how components find each other to make an application. We then study entities and the Java Persistence API more deeply, and get a look at message-driven beans as well.

A comprehensive look at the state of the art in developing interoperable web services on the Oracle® WebLogic platform. Students learn the key standards -- SOAP, WSDL, and the WS-I Basic Profile -- and the Java architecture that has evolved to build interoperable services and clients. JAX-WS is central to the course, and we cover both WSDL-driven and Java-driven development paths, as well as message handlers and attachment support. With the new Provider and Dispatch APIs, it's now much easier to integrate SAAJ, JAXB, and JAXP code into services and clients, and we explore these strategies in depth as well.

This course enables the experienced Java developer to use the Spring application framework to manage objects in a lightweight "IoC" (inversion-of-control) container. Spring is a far-reaching framework that aims to facilitate all sorts of Java development, including every level of multi-tier distributed systems. Here we focus on the "Core" module of the framework, developing facility in instantiating, configuring, and assembling Spring beans for various purposes. The Core module gives the developer declarative control over object creation and assembly; this is useful for any tier of any Java application. So is Spring's validation framework, and so we study not only the assembly of object graphs, but also how to apply validation logic to those objects and to report errors to the user or to another software component.
This course enables the experienced Java developer to use the Spring application framework to manage objects in a lightweight "IoC" (inversion-of-control) container; to create simple and complex web applications; and to manage persistent objects using Spring's support for DAOs and transaction control. Spring is a far-reaching framework that aims to facilitate all sorts of Java development, including every level of multi-tier distributed systems. Here we focus on the Core and Web/MVC modules, with a lighter (but by no means dismissive) touch on persistence through DAO and ORM modules. The Core module gives the developer declarative control over object creation and assembly; this is useful for any tier of any Java application. So is Spring's validation framework, and so we study these things in a mix of standalone (Java SE) applications and web applications. Then students build web applications that use the Spring MVC framework to rationalize their designs into coherent request/response cycles. They use Spring command objects to manage HTML forms and their data, and connect these to the validation framework. We connect our applications to persistent stores and study the DAO and ORM modules, to better understand JDBC and JPA persistence models and declarative transaction control.

Spring is a far-reaching framework that aims to facilitate all sorts of Java development, including every level of multi-tier distributed systems. Here we focus on the Core and persistence modules, with a brief stop in the Web module to support hands-on exercises in Spring persistence for web applications. Spring supports a wide range of persitence technology: everything from raw JDBC to sophisticated object/relational mapping tools such as Hibernate and TopLink, and also the new Java standard for those tools, the Java Persistence API. We work at either end of this spectrum, with exercises on improving JDBC code with Spring templates and transaction management, and also how to integrate JPA entities and DAOs into Spring applications and to deploy Spring transactions over JPA.
This course enables the experienced Java developer to use the Spring Web Flow framework to create simple and complex web applications. Web Flow represents a powerful new approach to designing and developing web applications, and can also draw on the configuration capabilities of Spring itself. We begin with an introduction to the Spring Core module -- which implements the configurable object container available to Web Flow applications as an application context -- and get oriented to the Spring web framework, as underpinnings of the Web Flow system. Then we dive into Web Flow itself, and develop key concepts of flow, state, transition, and action. We get moderately complex applications up and running with these elements, and see how the JavaBeans used to power a flow can also take advantage of Spring configuration and dependency injection. Then we move into more advanced techniques including custom converters, validators, and subflows. We conclude the course with a look at lifecycle and context features, such as the FlowExecutionListener.
This practical, application-oriented course teaches Java Servlets technology and shows how to use it to develop simple to complex web applications on the Oracle® WebLogic platform. It is intended for experienced Java programmers who want to build web applications. The course begins with an overview of server-side Java programming and web protocols. Then students learn the Java Servlets architecture, the request/response cycle, and servlet life cycle, and how to build interactive web applications that parse and/or generate HTML forms. Several prominent patterns for servlet application architecture are considered. Sessions are studied as a means to developing sophisticated client/server conversations over several HTML pages. Multi-tier applications are developed using servlets and JDBC for access to relational databases. The course develops the important concept of the separation of programmatic and declarative development: use of configuration and context information in lieu of hard-coded values, resource locations, etc., to make the web application as portable and easy to administer as possible. The course introduces JavaBeans as a standard for business and data objects that can be shared among servlets and JSPs, and develops techniques for sharing such objects at session scope or by request forwarding. Finally, students learn how to implement filters to adapt existing servlets by pre- and post-processing the request and response.

This course teaches everything that most Java developers will need to know about programming asynchronous messaging using the Java Message Service, or JMS, on the Oracle® WebLogic platform. Both the point-to-point and publish-and-subscribe messaging styles are covered, but there is an emphasis on the more popular point-to-point approach using message queues. The course moves quickly from JMS fundamentals -- connections, sessions, queues, topics, etc. -- to intermediate techniques such as message properties and selectors. By the end of the day, students will understand JMS reliability and be able to make intelligent architectural choices between delivery modes, acknowledgement modes, and transacted sessions.
