CYAN YELLOW MAGENTA BLACK PANTONE 123 CV EMPOWERING PRODUCTIVITY FOR THE JAVA™ DEVELOPER THE EXPERT’S VOICE® IN JAVA™ TECHNOLOGY Companion eBook Available The Definitive Guide to Grails The Definitive Dear Reader, As modern web application developers, most of us have experienced one or many of the so-called web application frameworks that promise much, but Guide to often deliver so little. The frustration of verbose configuration and anemic APIs has led many, particularly in the Java™ community, in search of greener fields. The aim of this book is to introduce one of those greener fields that is not so far from home. In fact, its roots are very much embedded in the Java platform The Definitive Guide to that we all know and love. Grails could well be the web application framework that you’ve been searching for. Here, I provide you with all the information that you need to get productive quickly. Grails You will learn how to use the Groovy language with Grails to rapidly prototype applications, develop dynamic tag libraries, create rich domain models, and provide reusable services. If you’re from a background of building applications with existing Java frameworks, such as Spring, Hibernate, and Quartz, you’ll be able to build on that knowledge, because Grails leverages each of these well- known frameworks to provide a full stack experience. If you’re not, Grails shields you from the technicalities of those framework APIs, leaving you to focus on what’s important: the business logic in your application. I wrote this book to spread the news that there are robust, dynamic alterna- tives to traditional Java web application frameworks, and to show you how you can use dynamic and statically typed code that will complement one another where appropriate. Grails Groovy is an incredibly powerful language, but until recently much of its power was largely undocumented. The development of Grails provides a shining example of what Groovy is capable of when its full range of features is harnessed.

    301AA - Advanced Programming Lecturer: Andrea Corradini [email protected] http://pages.di.unipi.it/corradini/ AP-2018-11: Frameworks and Inversion of Control Frameworks and Inversion of Control • Recap: JavaBeans as Components • Frameworks, Component Frameworks and their features • Frameworks vs IDEs • Inversion of Control and Containers • Frameworks vs Libraries • Decoupling Components • Dependency Injection • IoC Containers in Spring 2 Components: a recap A software component is a unit of composition with contractually specified interfaces and explicit context dependencies only. A software component can be deployed independently and is subject to composition by third party. Clemens Szyperski, ECOOP 1996 • Examples: Java Beans, CLR Assemblies • Contractually specified interfaces: events, methods and properties • Explicit context dependencies: serializable, constructor with no argument • Subject to composition: connection to other beans – Using connection oriented programming (event source and listeners/delegates) 3 Towards Component Frameworks • Software Framework: A collection of common code providing generic functionality that can be selectively overridden or specialized by user code providing specific functionality • Application Framework: A software framework used to implement the standard structure of an application for a specific development environment. • Examples: – GUI Frameworks – Web Frameworks – Concurrency Frameworks 4 Examples of Frameworks Web Application Frameworks GUI Toolkits 5 Examples: General Software Frameworks – .NET – Windows platform. Provides language interoperability – Android SDK – Supports development of apps in Java (but does not use a JVM!) – Cocoa – Apple’s native OO API for macOS. Includes C standard library and the Objective-C runtime. – Eclipse – Cross-platform, easily extensible IDE with plugins 6 Examples: GUI Frameworks • Frameworks for Application with GUI – MFC - Microsoft Foundation Class Library.
  • Design Pattern Interview Questions

    Design Pattern Interview Questions

    DDEESSIIGGNN PPAATTTTEERRNN -- IINNTTEERRVVIIEEWW QQUUEESSTTIIOONNSS http://www.tutorialspoint.com/design_pattern/design_pattern_interview_questions.htm Copyright © tutorialspoint.com Dear readers, these Design Pattern Interview Questions have been designed specially to get you acquainted with the nature of questions you may encounter during your interview for the subject of Design Pattern. As per my experience good interviewers hardly plan to ask any particular question during your interview, normally questions start with some basic concept of the subject and later they continue based on further discussion and what you answer: What are Design Patterns? Design patterns represent the best practices used by experienced object-oriented software developers. Design patterns are solutions to general problems that software developers faced during software development. These solutions were obtained by trial and error by numerous software developers over quite a substantial period of time. What is Gang of Four GOF? In 1994, four authors Erich Gamma, Richard Helm, Ralph Johnson and John Vlissides published a book titled Design Patterns - Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software which initiated the concept of Design Pattern in Software development. These authors are collectively known as Gang of Four GOF. Name types of Design Patterns? Design patterns can be classified in three categories: Creational, Structural and Behavioral patterns. Creational Patterns - These design patterns provide a way to create objects while hiding the creation logic, rather than instantiating objects directly using new opreator. This gives program more flexibility in deciding which objects need to be created for a given use case. Structural Patterns - These design patterns concern class and object composition. Concept of inheritance is used to compose interfaces and define ways to compose objects to obtain new functionalities.

    Pragmatic Bookshelf Groovy Recipes.Pdf

    What readers are saying about Groovy Recipes This is the go-to guide for turning Groovy into every Java developer’s perfect utility knife. Whether you need to quickly parse an Atom feed, serve up an Excel spreadsheet from your Grails app, or create a tar- ball on the fly, this book will show you how. In true Groovy style, Scott does away with all unnecessary ceremony and gets right down to business. In almost every section, the very first thing you see is code— the recipe for solving the problem at hand—and if you want to stick around for the clear and informative explanation, well, that’s strictly optional. Jason Rudolph Author, Getting Started with Grails Groovy Recipes is the book that I want to have in reach whenever I work in my Groovy bakery. Nothing gets you faster up to speed than having well-thought-out recipes for your everyday tasks. Dierk König Canoo Engineering AG The format of this book is ideal for rapidly obtaining crucial informa- tion just when you need it. An agile text for agile development! Joe McTee Software Engineer, JEKLsoft Groovy is on my radar as one of the next big things in Java, and this book gets you up to speed quickly with lots of great code examples. David Geary Author, Clarity Training, Inc. Scott does a fantastic job of presenting many little nuggets of “groovi- ness” here in a way that is easy to read and follow. There is plenty here for Groovy newcomers and veterans alike. Thanks, Scott! Jeff Brown Member of the Groovy and Grails Core Development Teams Adding Groovy to Java is like adding rocket fuel to your SUV.

This study took a constructive research approach: It starts from the application domain including the initial plan and business model, then moves to the system architecture covering the architecturally significant requirements and the system structure compliant with J2EE architecture, finally ends at the application design elaborated by applying the J2EE patterns at a high level. As a result the architectural and application design satisfied the project needs and requirements; and the HUVA software has been implemented in practice according to the design. Keywords: J2EE, architecture, pattern, enterprise system. ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank Professor Roope Raisamo and Professor Isto Aho from the University of Tampere for being my encouraging, patient and responsible supervisors during the master’s thesis project. I would like to thank Mr. Mika Miettinen from Solteq Oyj and Mr. Timo Westkämper for supporting the technical aspects of this thesis.
