The Spring Primer Buy from Amazon

  • The Spring Primer is the most complete book on the Spring Framework. It is for users who are familiar with Java development but have never used Spring. As you read this title, you will learn how Spring reduces the amount of code you have to write and why it receives so much attention and respect from the Java community. This book is very code-intensive and contains many examples for developing applications with Spring. You'll use Test-Driven Development to rapidly develop and test a simple CRUD application. All of the code in this book is available on SourceBeat's web site. In addition, an open-source project called Equinox is available as part of this book to help users get started quickly and easily with Spring.

  • Simpler, faster, easier dynamic website development based on new additions to an established and proven technology&emdash;that's what JavaServer Pages (JSP) 2.0 is all about. Pro JSP, Third Edition is the most comprehensive guide and reference to JSP 2.0 yet. It equips you with the tools, techniques, and understanding you need to develop web applications with JSP and Java servlets.

    The new features of the JSP 2.0 and Servlet 2.4 specifications make developing web applications easier than ever before. The new JSP Expression Language (EL) provides a new, simple language for creating JSP pages and tags. In addition, by also using the JSP Standard Tag Library (JSTL), you'll never have to use a Java scriptlet or write spaghetti code again.

    Beyond covering the JSP and Servlet APIs, this book shows you how to choose and implement the best persistence option for your web applications; how to secure your web sites against malicious attack and accidental misuse; how to improve the performance and scalability of your JSP pages; and how to architect and design your applications to be reliable, stable, and maintainable through the use of design patterns and best practices.

    Finally, no JSP book would be complete today without looking at the role that open source projects such as Ant, Struts, XDoclet, JUnit, and Cactus can play in making your web development even easier.
