Created in collaboration by several leading J2EE and Struts authors and industry experts, this intensive course will give you the skills to design and build scalable, secure, maintainable web applications - leveraging ExitCertified's extensive experience in the delivery of scalable enterprise applications with complex web interfaces based on J2EE technologies. This course provides core Struts 2.0 knowledge that can be used as the foundation for developing production-quality web applications. Struts 2.0 is the second generation of the open source, Model-View-Controller (MVC) framework developed by The Apache Software Foundation as part of its Jakarta project. Struts 2.0 is built on top of a variety of components and technologies to provide tremendous flexibility and address many lifecycle issues. After reading the first J2EE Blueprints from Sun with their explanation of MVC and how to accomplish it with custom tags, Servlets, and JSP, one can clearly see that Struts 2.0 is a manifestation of Sun's J2EE MVC vision that uses many of the more recent innovations in both Java and J2EE. Struts 2.0 addresses many major issues by using vanilla POJOs, filters, and other components to build web systems. It solves the problem of controller complexity by removing the workflow logic from the code, and directing workflow in an XML configuration file. Struts 2.0 improves on the limited form support in JSP (and first generation the Struts 1.x framework) by adding numerous capabilities to form processing including easy validation, easy error display, and the refilling of form input on retries from a user's previous entries. It minimizes the complexity of JSP pages by supplying a very extensive and flexible set of custom tag libraries for many of the standard operations needed in JSP pages. This course will get you up to speed with Struts 2.0 in a very short time. It includes all the important concepts, and hands on labs that will have you building working Struts 2.0 applications in no time flat.

Skills Gained

This course provides coverage of all the standard components, filters, renderers, converters, and validators, along with advice on how to use them to create solid applications. Working in a hands-on, lab-intensive environment, students will explore and use complex user interface layouts, prototyping, and integrating templates with back-end model objects. Topics include:

Understand the problems with vanilla servlets/JSP, and the motivation for the general Struts framework
Understand MVC and the Struts architecture
Understand the lessons learned from Struts 1.x and how they influenced Struts 2.0
Understand the Struts FilterDispatcher, Struts 2.0 views, and resource bundles
Create & configure applications using Struts 2.0 and the struts.xml file
Define, implement, and test ActionSupport and Action classes

Use Struts for form processing
Handle errors and debug Struts applications
Utilize the Struts 2.0 XWork validation framework
Use the value stack to bind objects to a view
Use the Struts 2.0-related annotations




	Who Can Benefit

Prerequisites

Students should have basic development skills and a working knowledge in the following topics, or attend these courses as a pre-requisite

Core Java Programming
Building J2EE Web Applications (Servlets, JSPs, JDBC, Security, etc.)




	Course Overview: Hands-On Learning
	Throughout the course students will be led through a series of progressively advanced topics, where each topic consists of lecture, group discussion, comprehensive hands-on lab exercises, and lab review. This class is “technology-centric”, designed to train attendees in essential J2EE development skills coupling the most current, effective techniques with the soundest coding practices. This workshop is about 50% hands-on lab and 50% lecture. Multiple detailed lab exercises are laced throughout the course, designed to reinforce fundamental skills and concepts learned in the lessons. Because these lessons, labs and projects are presented in a building block fashion, students will gain a solid understanding of not only the core concepts, but also how all the pieces fit together in a complete application. At the end of each lesson, developers will be tested with a set of review questions to ensure that he/she has fully understands that topic.
