Pro Spring 2.5
Pro Spring 2.5 is the perfect, simple answer for your lightweight, alternative Java EE development needs! Put simply, this book brings J2EE/Java EE “down to earth.” Without the hassles of using the EJB 3 specification and similar, you can build lighter, better–performing agile enterprise Java–based applications using Spring Framework 2. The Spring framework can also integrate other noteworthy and hot open source tools like Apache Struts, Hibernate, OpenJPA, GlassFish, and many more. You’ll work through a real, scalable enterprise application and build it from the ground up with Spring, using all the multiple web views and frameworks—while other books may use only one.
What you’ll learn
- Build a simple Spring–based application.
- Understand how Dependency Injection works in Spring and how it works in application design.
- Get to the fundamentals of Aspect Oriented Design (AOP), which lies at the heart of Spring, and apply it to application design.
- Access and persist your data with Spring and its modules for JDBC, Hibernate, iBATIS, JDO, OpenJPA, and others.
- Use Spring for business logic, transaction management, Java EE 5 plug-ins (Project PitchFork), job scheduling, and mail support.
- Apply and extend Spring to the web–tier using Spring MVC and integrating with other Java web–tier projects/technologies such as JSP, Struts, WebWork, JRuby on Rails, Grails, and more.
- Test and deploy with Spring.
Who is this book for?
Enterprise Java, J2EE/Java EE developers looking to learn and use the Spring metaframework, the now growing, leading alternative to J2EE/Java EE
