Description
It could be argued that the Spring Framework has impacted Java and the open source community more than any other framework – ever. It is often referred to as a “defacto-standard” in the Java and Java EE development community.
In this class, students are exposed to the light-weight Spring container, configuration, foundational API, and general Spring architecture. Not just a class that focuses on theory, this course is loaded with practical labs and deals with configuration, maintenance and architectural issues. After taking this class, developers will immediately be able to utilize the Spring Framework (version 4) in their new or existing applications.
Learning Objectives
- Learn how to configure the Spring Framework as part of your project.
- Explore the Spring Container and Modules.
- Discover the Spring philosophies and principles and how they impact application development.
- Understand dependency injection.
- Explore how to define and wire Spring beans.
- Learn aspect oriented programming and how it is used to provide cross cutting concerns.
- See how to accomplish data access with Spring’s DAO support modules.
- Understand how Spring deals with transaction management.
- Examine Spring’s unit testing framework.
Audience
This class is designed for Java programmers with a need to understand the basic Spring Framework and API.
Prerequisites
Students should have a good understanding of the Java programming language. A basic understanding of relational databases and SQL is very helpful. A basic understanding of XML is also useful. Students that have attended Intertech’s Complete Java have the necessary background for this course.
