Description
Book SynopsisDesigned for programmers with limited Java experience, this informative guidebook shows how applications, applets, and servlets can be created with ease using IBM’s Rational Application Developer paired with JavaBeans. Step-by-step guidelines accompanied by screen captures and code samples demonstrate how to build JavaServer Faces Web applications, as well as Java applications complete with graphical user interfaces. Instruction is also provided on using Rational Application Developer’s debugger, incorporating relational databases with Java, and adding Asynchronous JavaScript and XML behavior to applications in order to produce more interactive and usable web pages. Exercises at the end of each chapter ensure that even novice Java programmers will learn how to combine reusable components to get applications up and running quickly.
