Product Description

Product Description

Agile Java™ Development With Spring, Hibernate and Eclipse is a book about robust technologies and effective methods which help bring simplicity back into the world of enterprise Java development. The three key technologies covered in this book, the Spring Framework, Hibernate and Eclipse, help reduce the complexity of enterprise Java development significantly. Furthermore, these technologies enable plain old Java objects (POJOs) to be deployed in light-weight containers versus heavy-handed remote objects that require heavy EJB containers. This book also extensively covers technologies such as Ant, JUnit, JSP tag libraries and touches upon other areas such as such logging, GUI based debugging, monitoring using JMX, job scheduling, emailing, and more. Also, Extreme Programming (XP), Agile Model Driven Development (AMDD) and refactoring are methods that can expedite the software development projects by reducing the amount of up front requirements and design; hence these methods are embedded throughout the book but with just enough details and examples to not sidetrack the focus of this book. In addition, this book contains well separated, subjective material (opinion sidebars), comic illustrations, tips and tricks, all of which provide real-world and practical perspectives on relevant topics. Last but not least, this book demonstrates the complete lifecycle by building and following a sample application, chapter-by-chapter, starting from conceptualization to production using the technology and processes covered in this book. In summary, by using the technologies and methods covered in this book, the reader will be able to effectively develop enterprise-class Java applications, in an agile manner!

1.0 out of 5 stars An awful book - hugely disappointing!, 16 Feb 2007
By A. Davis (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book sysnopsis leads you to believe that this will give you an introduction on how to use Hibernate Spring and Eclipse for agile development. It doesn't do it well; it doesn't even give you a good introduction to any of the individual subjects. The "worked" example is so badly done that it's impossible to code it yourself. The author will start a section with the impression that you will incrementally build the example, but you can't as all of it is dependent on other parts being completed (these haven't at that point been covered and this will also be done very superficially).The section on Spring is really poor. You end up with very litle idea of how to use Spring, the author (throughout the book) just gives snapshots of portions of code and xml with no adequate explanation. It seems that the author has developed an application and only has described, very briefly, only the portions of the application, and only very briefly the bits of Spring and Hibernate he used to develop it.
On top of all that, there is a smugness in his writing that eventually becomes somewhat irritating.
If you want an introduction to any of the subjects this book purports to cover, save your money and look elsewhere.

4.0 out of 5 stars An ambitious book, with a curve that might be a little too steep for some, 4 Oct 2006
By tolland (London, UK) - See all my reviews
An interesting book.
The author of this book was very ambitious as to the amount of understanding that they were trying to deliver. Dispensing with many of the page filling/book swelling instructions on installing the components, most of the chapters are a head first dive into practical examples from the accompanying book code examples illustrating each of the technologies.
This results in a experience that has a steep learning curve, for example I had to go away and check the online documentation for junit, spring and hibernate at various points to fully understand the examples.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Intro to various Agile Java technologies, 9 Oct 2006
An excellent introduction to Agile and the varous technolgies. This book is for beginners who want to get an introduction to various technolgies like hibernate, Spring, Eclipse, Junit and Ant. This by no means will make you an expert but atleast you will know what each technology does and how they are brought together, as the sample application does in the book. I really liked the writing style and found it simple and the book itself a quick read, nothing really bogged me down. The book is also new so all tools once downloaded and installed work with the sample application.
