Book description

You're familiar with Java™ programming, but now it's time for you to take it to the next level and begin creating enterprise applications with the Java™ 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE™). The J2EE™ Tutorial is the hands-on, example-driven guide that offers unparalleled technical guidance into developing and deploying applications on the J2EE platform.

Written by the uniquely qualified members of the Java Software team at Sun Microsystems, The J2EE™ Tutorial uses the same effective interactive approach as the successful Java™ Tutorial collection. Throughout this book's development, hundreds of suggestions and volumes of feedback from both users and architects were integrated to ensure great writing and truly useful guidance.

Inside you'll find a smart mix of example programs—including source code—that are used to illustrate key J2EE concepts. In addition, clear explanations will help you make easy work of the range of technologies collected into the J2EE platform, including:

  • Enterprise JavaBeans™

  • Java™ Servlets

  • JavaServer Pages™

  • Java™ Message Service (JMS)

  • Java Naming and Directory Interface™ (JNDI)

  • XML

  • J2EE™ Connector Architecture

  • JavaMail™

  • JDBC™

    • When you're ready to create your own great enterprise applications, turn to the unmatched guidance, understanding, and experience you'll find only in The J2EE™ Tutorial.

    The accompanying CD-ROM is filled with a wealth of valuable resources, including all three Java™ Tutorial books, the J2SE 1.3.1 and J2EE 1.3.1 software development kits, the Java BluePrints sample application and book, and Forte for Java Plugin for the J2EE SDK.
