Java and WebSphere provide a solid base for developing large-enterprise applications. However, the training materials available often assume knowledge of object-oriented programming and system design. Beginning Java with WebSphere fills that gap by providing a step-by-step guide for creating and installing both client- and server-based Java applications using Rapid Application Development v8, WebSphere Application Server 8.0, and Java. Since more and more Java applications are moving to the server and using HTML for the user interface, there is a minimal amount of time spent exploring the Java GUI components. For the same reason, applets are almost completely ignored and AWT was chosen over Swing because of its ease of use. In addition, the detailed explanation of reference variables is delayed until Chapter 5 so that the student may get comfortable with the Java syntax and the RAD environment. More specifically, this book covers graphical user interfaces using RAD`s Visual Editor, variables, conditional logic, and application improvements/enhancements from the client side. And, from the server-side, this book covers servlets, JavaServer Pages (JSPs), database accessibility (JDBC), custom tags, and concludes with JavaServer Faces (JSFs). Some Java purists may decry the omitted detail on certain topics (static vs. non-static methods, private/protected/public, arrays, etc.). However, we have intentionally minimized these topics to concentrate on base topics that allow you to get to the server-side and database topics quickly. What you`ll learn How to do Java and on a PC What are graphical user interfaces and how to build these How to do more GUI and using a Visual Editor What are variables, conditional logic, event handling and more How to improve your application Moving to the server, how to do Java Servlets and JavaServer Pages (JSPs) How to access a database using WebSphere How to do custom server-side tags and build with JavaServer Faces (JSFs) And more Who this book is for .ISBN - 9781430263012
