SUMMARY:   The Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) provides a mechanism for building enterprise applications in Java. This course covers the key technologies of the J2EE platform; Servlets and JavaServer Pages (JSP) for presenting information via a web-based interface; Enterprise JavaBeans for accessing legacy data in a secure and transactional manner, and Java Messaging Systems to provide open gateways to other applications. IBM WebSphere Application Development using Rational Application Developer is designed to provide delegates with the knowledge and skills necessary to develop and deploy enterprise-level distributed applications for deployment on an IBM WebSphere application server using Rational Application Developer. This course defines a Toolbox for developing enterprise distributed applications. You will learn how to build Servlet and JSPs, and EJBs to build large-scale solutions to business problems. DURATION:   5 Days APPROACH:   Much of the information will be presented as Short Seminars, which will be reinforced by Extensive Practical Sessions. OBJECTIVES:   Use Rational Application Developer to build J2EE applications Understand the benefits and technologies of the J2EE Platform Create web applications consisting of Servlets and JavaServerPages Build Server-side components with Enterprise JavaBeans Access databases with Java DataBase Connectivity (JDBC) Utilize the Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) Manage Distributed Transactions Maintain Enterprise Application Security Deploy Applications on IBM WebSphere application server COURSE CONTENT:   INTRODUCTION J2EE Overview J2EE Architecture J2EE Application System J2EE Implementation WEBSPHERE APPLICATION SERVER Concept Product Family Applications and Domains RELATIONAL APPLICATION DEVELOPER Concept Eclipse-based Architecture Application Developer Tools WorkBench fundamentals WorkBench setup Perspectives, Views and Editors Project Developing J2EE Applications Deploying J2EE Applications SERVLETS Concept Life Cycle Processing Scope Attributes Including and Forwarding Filters and Wrappers Session and Listeners JAVASERVER PAGES Concept Life Cycle JSP Page Content Implicit Objects Standard Actions Including and Forwarding EL Tag Libraries JSTL Custom Tag Libraries JDBC Concept Classes and Interfaces JDBC Drivers Connecting to a database Processing ResultSets Connection Pooling BUILDING MVC APPLICATIONS Model 1, Model 2 and MVC Building MVC applications EJB OVERVIEW Concept EJB Architecture EJB Components Session Beans Entity Beans Message Beans Programming Beans Packaging Beans Developing EJBs in RAD EJB Tooling Creating EJBs with the Visual UML tool Test EJBs with the Universal Test Client RMI-IIOP RPC vs RMI Remote Objects Building the Remote Interface JNDI Naming and Directory Services Benefits of JNDI JNDI Architecture Namespaces Context Factories Programming JNDI Integrating RMI-IIOP and JNDI EJB CLIENTS Client functionality Coding a Client Using a Client SESSION BEANS Concept Stateful vs Stateless session beans Client view of a session bean Creating a session bean Session bean life cycle ENTITY BEANS Concept BMP vs CMP Client view of Entity Bean Creating BMP and CMP Entity Beans Entity Beans Relationships EJB Query Language MESSAGE-DRIVEN BEANS Message Beans and Asynchronous Communication Implementing a Message-driven Beans Messaging Bean Lifecycle Message Destinations JAVA MESSAGING SERVICE (JMS) Concept Implementation EJB TRANSACTIONS Transaction Concept Implementing EJB Transactions Transaction Atttributes Transaction Synchronization EJB SECURITY Implementing EJB Security Security Roles Method Permissions Disabling Methods Responsibilities Deploying EJB Security GH/06
