Enterprise JavaBeans: Developing Component-based Distributed Applications Book

In Tom Valesky's Enterprise JavaBeans, readers find a hands-on tutorial on writing real-world EJBs for the corporate enterprise. Valesky explores the history of distributed computing and the role of EJBs in the world of legacy CORBA and transaction processing. The author's presentation of the architecture of EJBs, both session and entity beans, is just excellent. The book also suggests how EJBs can be used together with RMI and CORBA. The examples in this book are its best feature. Using WebLogic's application server, the author first presents a simple "Hello world" example. There is also a simple online "shopping cart" example, written with both "stateless" and "stateful" session beans. You'll explore entity beans for connecting to corporate databases, and Valesky updates the shopping cart example to use them. EJBs are just part of the picture for enterprise development. As a bonus, this book provides a checklist of over 50 useful hints for writing successful distributed systems. The book includes a full-fledged example for an employee time-tracking system built with EJBs, along with full source code for all examples presented in the book. Enterprise JavaBeans is an excellent hands-on guide to real-world EJB development in a book that avoids the high-flown jargon that often appears in books on distributed programming. --Richard DraganRead More

  • Product Description

    Enterprise JavaBeans(tm) facilitates the development of distributed Java(tm) applications, providing an object-oriented transactional environment for building distributed, component-based, multitier enterprise applications.

    Enterprise JavaBeans is designed to get you up-to-speed quickly, focusing on the exact information you need to become an effective Enterprise JavaBeans programmer. This example-filled book serves as an introduction and tutorial, and provides the in-depth information you need to handle real-world programming challenges.

    This book presents an overview of the architecture, using a "Hello, world!" Enterprise JavaBeans system to illustrate basic concepts. The book then moves on to cover Session and Entity beans, how to write client programs that use Enterprise JavaBeans, and the packaging and deploying of Enterprise JavaBeans. You will find precise explanations on specific topics such as:

    The differences between stateful and stateless beans
    -- The differences between bean-managed and container-managed
    -- Entity beans
    -- How to call a bean from a servlet, another bean, or an applet
    -- How to obtain and examine Enterprise JavaBeans metadata
    -- How to identify deployment descriptors and the values they contain
    -- How to use access control lists to set up permissions on an
    -- Enterprise JavaBeans server
    -- How a bean can retrieve and test a client's identity

    In addition, substantial examples and an "implementation diary" demonstrate the implementation process, the available options and tradeoffs, and the rationale behind development choices. A chapter devoted to tips and common pitfalls provides concrete rules of thumb for more effective Enterprise JavaBeans programming. The accompanying CD-ROM includes Enterprise JavaBeans software and examples from the book.

    Enterprise JavaBeans gives you the background you need to use the system productively in your daily work and puts you on the fast track to mastering Enterprise JavaBeans techniques.
