Struts Kick Start pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載2025

Learn to build applications with Jakarta Struts, the most popular JSP development framework. Struts Kick Start is a "hands-on" book filled with sample applications and code snippets you can reuse, and in-depth coverage of new features in Struts 1.1. If you are looking for a practical book that "shows you how to do it", then Struts Kick Start is for you. Plus, it's the first Struts book with detailed examples of the major Struts tags.</p>

The book begins with a discussion of Struts and its Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture. The authors' then demonstrate Struts' power through the development of a non-trivial sample application - covering all the Struts components in a "how to use them" approach. You'll also see the Struts Tag Library in action - use tags for HTML, javabeans, logical operations and more. You'll learn to use Struts with JBoss for EJB's, with Apache Axis to publish and use Web Services, and with JUnit for testing and debugging. The authors work with the latest Struts 1.1 features including DynaForms, Tiles and the Validator. </p>

The book includes a CD-ROM containing the tools discussed in the book: Struts 1.1 beta 2, Java 2 Standard Edition, JBoss 3.0.3, MySQL 3.23, XDoclet, Torque, Tomcat, Ant, Axis, Cactus, and JUnit. Plus, it comes with an electronic, fully searchable version of the book. </p>

From the Inside Cover:</p>

"Struts Kick Start is a good resource for learning about Struts, and it willhelp you get up to speed quickly."</p>

- Craig McClanahan, Creator of Struts</p>

Thoroughly covers the essential features of Struts in a clear and readable style.</p>

Struts Kick Start is a solid starting point for learning how to develop webapplications using Struts. The authors start you off by reviewing thefoundational technologies on which Struts is based, and immediately get into thesorts of practical "how to" information and examples that get you up to speedquickly.</p>

Notable features that I really appreciated include the coverage on integrationwith other technologies (such as EJBs and web services), using Ant to set upyour development environment, and the fact that the software goodies you needare available on the included CD. Struts does not live in a vacuum—it is one ofthe tools in the developer's toolkit, so knowing how it works with othertechnologies is very useful.</p>

Of particular importance is the coverage on testing your web application as youbuild and maintain it. Developing a solid testing methodology, and a substantialsuite of tests (to protect yourself against regressions), is criticallyimportant to a rapid development cycle that still needs to produce high qualityapplications. Coverage of testing, though, tends to be minimal in many booksabout programming technologies. James and Kevin provide specific advice on howto use the JUnit and Cactus testing frameworks with your Struts based applications.</p>
