Introduction | Chapter 12 | Chapter 24

The JDC is proud to present two chapters from Professional Java Server Programming, J2EE Edition, by multiple authors (see below), and published in September 2000 by Wrox Press Ltd. This book focuses on how to develop server-side Java applications based on the J2EE specification, and the practical aspects of real-world design using J2EE technologies.

About the Book

This book demonstrates how the J2EE architecture allows you, the developer, to concentrate on writing the key logic for your business component. Through comprehensive coverage of the servlet, JavaServer Pages and Enterprise JavaBeans technologies, this book demonstrates how to design and construct secure and scalable n-tier applications. You'll see how JSP pages allow you to separate business and presentation logic, how Enterprise JavaBeans (EJBs) can be used to model your data, and how to integrate with other systems using CORBA, XML, and the Java Messaging Service.

About the Chapters

Chapter 12, "JSP Tag Extensions," looks at adding new functionality to the JSP language by writing your own tag extensions.

Chapter 24, "Design Considerations for J2EE Applications," discusses how to apply J2EE technologies to solve design issues in particular problem contexts.
