Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
This new edition of Professional Java Server Programming J2EE is remarkably similar to the previous edition. Differences include dropping the chapter on Internationalisation and adding chapters on Java Connector Architecture, Web Services, which J2EE implementation to use and J2EE Packaging--along with minor chapter changes reflecting changes to v1.3.
You'll need a good grounding in Java programming and database work at a corporate level, and it helps if you're familiar with RMI, JNDI, JDBC, SOAP, SwA, UDDI and WSDL, though these are introduced in the text. You'll find excellent coverage of the complete servlet lifecycle, deployment, security and other business-oriented aspects of J2EE with emphasis on scalability, robustness and maintainability.
The authors assume familiarity (if not extensive experience) with objects, classes, data exchange protocols and other aspects of server programming--including a grasp of business logic and UML. However, treating business procedures as programming exercises often results in confusion between the business and programming logic. This reflects the problems encountered when trying to treat two activities as if they're aspects of the same exercise, when in practice they're better treated separately--a problem exacerbated by the lack of support in UML for Enterprise Javabeans.
If you persevere, though, Professional Java Server Programming J2EE 1.3 Edition will get you to the finish line, even if it does sometimes feel like you're running an obstacle course. --Steve Patient
Book Description
The release of the 1.3 version of the Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) represents the evolution of Sun Microsystems' server-side development platform into a more mature and sophisticated specification. Servlets 2.3 gain events and filtering; JavaServer Pages (JSP) 1.2 gain a new XML syntax and enhancements to the custom tag mechanisms; and Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) 2.0 has some significant changes to its container-managed persistence model, as well as support for asynchronous processing with the new message-driven beans.
This book demonstrates how to design and construct secure and scalable n-tier J2EE applications, using JSP and servlets for the web tier and EJBs for the business logic. It also covers J2EE Connector Architecture that allows you to easily integrate your J2EE applications to enterprise information systems.
This book covers:
The J2EE container architecture and runtime services
Web component development with Servlets 2.3 and JavaServer Pages 1.2
Business logic components with EJB 2.0, including container-managed persistence, EJB QL, and message-driven beans
Underlying J2EE technologies for distributed development - RMI, JDBC and JNDI
Introduction to Web Services covering SOAP, SwA, WSDL, and UDDI

it's very good book,
By trimax@iol.it (Ivrea Italy) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Professional Java Server Programming J2EE: 1.3 Edition (Programmer to Programmer) (Paperback)
In the J2ee literature this book is the best, infact there is a complete overview of the architecture and the new features are explained very well.

Something new, but not so much.,
This review is from: Professional Java Server Programming J2EE: 1.3 Edition (Programmer to Programmer) (Paperback)
Respect the previous version, there are new things, somewhere can be adjusted, but the book explains the concepts and also the practical approach to the different J2EE problems.The new platform has not changed so much in the book.

For Reference Only,
By MO - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Professional Java Server Programming J2EE: 1.3 Edition (Programmer to Programmer) (Paperback)
This book presents a nice overview of the primary components of J2EE architecture. If you're looking for gory details on J2EE technologies this isn't your text.As with any multi-author book the writing style varies wildly. All the examples are extremely trivial. The important part is you get explanation about how all the fundamental pieces of J2EE work together and what they do. Everything from Java Server Pages, to EJBs, JNDI, JMS, Web Servers (no real coverage on Web Services), different app servers, JAAS, JTA, etc. Nice reference book for high level or simple questions when you're trying to learn the ropes. Basically useless for any hard core implementation efforts. 13 of 14 people found the following review helpful:

Good J2EE technical book,
By Y. Ho "Yifong" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Professional Java Server Programming J2EE: 1.3 Edition (Programmer to Programmer) (Paperback)
From time to time, I read many Java/J2EE books and on-line articles. What I like about this book is its complete but concise introduction of various J2EE topics. The content is easy to read and the code is easy to follow. (I am using Forte 3.0 CE, J2SE_1.3.1, J2EE_1.3 and J2EE Toolkit 2.1) After reading this book, not only will you know how to use each API but also obtain comprehensive coverage about J2EE components. Best of all, you can just focus on the chapter that is most important to you without the need to start from page 1. If you are getting started for J2EE server-side programming, seek no further. This is an excellent hand-on book. However, this book may not contain the real-life codes that you are looking for...

Pretty good book,
By Barbara J. Ericson - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Professional Java Server Programming J2EE: 1.3 Edition (Programmer to Programmer) (Paperback)
I often find the Wrox books to have some good chapters and some bad chapters since they have different authors for the different chapters. This book is better than many other Wrox books. Many of the chapters are well written with good examples. I also found the structure to be good. One thing that is a problem is that while some of the examples are well commented others have no comments. This is typical of Java books. |
