Book Description
Learn to leverage the awesome power of Sun's new Java development tool without getting bogged down in the details.
Simplify Java coding in the enterprise with this promising new release from Sun
Use this environment to create corporate applications more quickly and provide a consistent look and feel for these applications
Significant co-marketing with Sun, beginning with possible book release at JavaOne in late June The Sun Java Studio Creator environment is the next generation tool for Java application development. Formerly known as Project Rave, this eagerly anticipated Integrated Development Environment (IDE) offers tremendous promise because it provides an easy-to-use interface to simplify Java coding for corporate applications. This timely handbook enables a programmer to quickly get up-to-speed with Java Studio Creator. The authors first provide a basic background on the relevant underlying technologies employed by Creator, and then cover the basics of the application (important elements such as navigating through the various windows, selecting and customizing the components, specifying page navigation, accessing databases, debugging applications, and much more). The book also provides poignant examples that readers can build and reuse as templates for their own applications. No programmer will want to embark upon a project using Sun Java Studio Creator without this invaluable tutorial and reference.

Most Helpful Customer Reviews   2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: Excellent guide to an interesting tool, 29 Oct 2004 By  Thomas Paul (Plainview, NY USA) - See all my reviews       Sun's Java Studio Creator makes use of JavaServer Faces (JSF) to allow visual development similar to the way Microsoft's Visual Studio allows visual development of ASP based sites. It is an easy to use IDE that allows you to drag and drop JSF components, validators, and converters to design a web application. Much of the code required for a web site is automatically generated for you as you visually develop and additional classes can be generated or hand written (depending on their complexity) using the tool. This book will not teach you JSF but it will teach you how to use the IDE and quickly create web applications. This book is a well-written and easy to follow step-by-step tutorial to using this new IDE. The book starts with a chapter on Java that can be easily ignored. The next chapter gives a quick introduction to the IDE. The authors demonstrate many of the basic techniques and show how to use the visual features to create navigation for a multi-page web site. The third chapter discusses each of the JSF components that are available in the IDE. Chapters four and five demonstrate how to use these components to build a web application. The examples are simple but they show how to integrate the generated code with custom beans (that can also be generated). Chapters six and seven show how to integrate Web Services and databases into your application. Chapter eight looks at internationalization and writing custom validators. The final chapter covers debugging. If you have a copy of the software and want to utilize it to the fullest then this book is well worth buying. If you don't have the software then look at ISBN 0131499947 to purchase the book and the software together.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?
