Spring: A Developer's Handbook
Since development first began on Spring in 2003, there's
been a constant buzz about it in Java development
publications and corporate IT departments. The reason is
clear: Spring is a lightweight Java framework in a world of
complex heavyweight architectures that take forever to
implement. Spring is like a breath of fresh air
to
overworked developers.
In Spring, you can make an object secure, remote, or
transactional, with a couple of lines of configuration
instead of embedded code. The resulting application is
simple and clean. In Spring, you can work less and go home
early, because you can strip away a whole lot of the
redundant code that you tend to see in most J2EE
applications. You won't be nearly as burdened with
meaningless detail. In Spring, you can change your mind
without the consequences bleeding through your entire
application. You'll adapt much more quickly than you ever
could before.
Spring: A Developer's Notebook offers a quick dive into the
new Spring framework, designed to let you get hands-on as
quickly as you like. If you don't want to bother with a lot
of theory, this book is definitely for you. You'll work
through one example after another. Along the way, you'll
discover the energy and promise of the Spring framework.
This practical guide features ten code-intensive labs
that'll rapidly get you up to speed. You'll learn how to do
the following, and more:
install the Spring Framework
set up the development environment
use Spring with other open source Java tools such as Tomcat,
Struts, and Hibernate
master AOP and transactions
utilize ORM solutions
As with all titles in the Developer's Notebook series, this
no-nonsense book skips all the boring prose and cuts right
to the chase. It's an approach that forces you to get your
hands dirty by working through one instructional example
after another-examples that speak to you instead of at you.
