Course Description |
||
Struts is an open source, Model-View-Controller (MVC) framework
developed by The Apache Software Foundation as part of its Jakarta
project. Struts is built on top of JSP, Servlets, and custom tag
libraries. 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 is a manifestation of Sun's
J2EE MVC vision. Struts addresses many major issues in using vanilla
Servlets/JSP to build web systems. It solves the problem of controller
complexity by removing the workflow logic from the Servlets, and
directing workflow in an XML configuration file. Struts improves on the
limited form support in JSP by adding numerous capabilities to form
processing including easy validation, easy error display, and the
refilling of form input on form retries from a users previous entries.
It minimizes the complexity of JSP pages, by integrating with the JSTL
tag library, and additionally 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 in a
very short time. It includes all the important concepts, and hands on
labs that will have you building working Struts applications in no time
flat. In addition, this course covers how to extend the Struts framework
to fit your unique needs

Complimentary Skills to have along with Java Programming
- If you are an experienced Java developer, learning a complimentary language to Java should come much more naturally. As an example JetBrains recently created the Kotlin programming language which is officially supported by Google for mobile development. Kotlin compiles to Java bytecode and runs on the JVM; it's purported to address many of Java's shortcomings... |
