Next-Generation Spring MVC with Spring Roo

Spring MVC is one of the most popular web frameworks in enterprise Java, successfully being deployed in thousands of production applications and used by millions of developers. Spring Roo delivers a set of integrated, highly-productive tooling for those developers building REST-based Spring MVC applications than can serve JavaScript, Flash, and Desktop (.NET/Swing) clients. In Spring Roo 1.1 there were significant improvements made to Roo's Spring MVC support, including fine-grained, incremental round-tripping of individual JSP elements, new integration with JQuery, and better workflow features. In this presentation attendees will discover the power of using Spring Roo to build Spring MVC applications, including detailed cover of how to get started, edit pages, add controllers and other tasks typical of MVC development.
