Enterprise Javabeans Components Architecture: Designing and Coding Enterprise Applications (Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition Series)

This book simplifies the creation of well-designed enterprise applications using Sun's newly upgraded Enterprise JavaBeans 2.0 platform. Experienced Java mentors Gail and Paul Anderson use detailed code examples to introduce every key skill involved in creating EJB components, standalone Java clients, and JSP Web-based clients. They also show how to apply today's most powerful EJB design guidelines and patterns -- and how to avoid critical errors in EJB application design.

Using real-world business components, the authors illustrate these and other key EJB features: stateless and stateful session beans, entity beans with bean-managed persistence, entity beans with container-managed persistence, container-managed relationships, local and remote interfaces, the EJB query language, and message-driven beans. Each chapter includes a "Design Guidelines and Patterns" section that helps developers understand the key tradeoffs associated with their design decisions.

For all Java developers, Web developers, and server side developers who will be working with J2EE technologies such as EJB, servlets, JSP, and JDBC.
