This book is a study guide for any candidate preparing for the new J2EE 1.4 version of the Sun Certified Web Component Developer exam (310-081 and upgrade 310-082). It contains the theory behind why the Web container operates as it does, and important notes, hints and tips on the types of ‘trick’ questions to look for in the exam. By combining logical and easy-to-follow discussions with clear visual aids and diagrams, you will learn how the container works, and, by the end of the book, you`ll be wondering why servlets, JSPs and tag libraries seemed so complicated before. By combining the theory taught in this book with practical experience, you will not only succeed in passing the exam, but will do so confident that you are able to solve problems and draw-up solutions ‘on the job’.
Have you ever found that you couldn`t quite remember the names of the XML elements or attributes in the Deployment Descriptor or Tag Library Descriptor, or perhaps you`ve had problems recalling custom tag life cycles? Not a problem! Helpful visual diagrams show ‘at a glance’ the important schemas, without having to resort to knowing the XML Schema or DTD languages, as used in the specifications.
This guide is not intended as a beginner`s book. It assumes prior, although basic, knowledge of J2EE, the Web container and the Extensible Mark-up Language (XML) core syntax. However, the thorough explanations presented in this book give excellent grounding in the subject, and a well-versed beginner or a quick-learner might be able to pick up sufficient knowledge of the Web container to actually pass the exam (no guarantees)! In addition, particular attention is devoted to the subjects of the Expression Language and custom tag libraries, both of which are new or have been significantly updated in the 1.4 version of the J2EE platform. No knowledge of either of these more difficult topics is assumed. ISBN - 9788184043150
