Synopsis

The first hands-on guide to building Java enterprise applications, updated and expanded to cover all of J2EE's exciting new features
Java has always been great when it came to creating Web applets, but, until now, it was hardly up to the task of building high-performance applications. Increased XML support, EJB 2.0, and a new APM, Java2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE), offer developers what they need to build powerful enterprise applications. This updated and expanded edition of the popular hands-on guide shows them how. It uses the examples of two large-scale enterprise applications--complete with source code--to show readers how to use J2EE's various APIs together as well as with other technologies, such as CORBA, COM, Servlets, and Agents. The book also features substantially expanded coverage of Enterprise JavaBeans and tells how to get the most out of EJB 2.0 tools and products. Topics of special interest to Java developers include: building a Servlet search engine; creating online stores with Java Server Pages; using transactions with EJBs and JDBC to create N-Tier applications; and selecting the best middleware for your needs.

Developing Java Enterprise Applications
Second Edition

Java programming experts Stephen Asbury and Scott Weiner are back! This new edition of their bestselling classic is updated to provide developers with the most thorough examination of J2EE, the latest version of the Java enterprise libraries. The book is formatted to introduce each technology across a number of chapters, complete with discussions on EJB, JSP, servlets, CORBA, RMI, XML, JavaMail, and brief introductions to JAAS and Connectors.

You'll also get two, real-world enterprise applications that demonstrate the skills needed to use the technologies described in the book.

You'll gain insight on such topics as:
* Enterprise JavaBeans-including the new Message driven-beans and container managed persistence (CMP)
* Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI)-information on naming and directory services, and how JNDI accesses them
* Programming servlets and JavaServer Pages-including creating custom tag libraries

* When to use each technology and general guidelines for making your decisions

The CD-ROM includes over 75 complete programs with source code ranging from small, targeted examples to an online store using EJB and a message hospital for JMS. You'll also find a link to the authors' Web site, which contains up-to- the-minute information about updates to J2EE.
