EBook Description: Java EE 6 and GlassFish v3 Virtual Conference

Liferay Portal is the leading open source enterprise portal framework that uses the latest Java and Web 2.0 technologies.

Web portals often function as a point of access to information on the World Wide Web. Web portals, such as Yahoo!, present information from diverse sources in a unified way.
Aside from the search engine standard, web portals offer other services such as e-mail, news, stock prices, infotainment, and various other features. Portals provide a means for enterprises to supply a consistent look and feel with access control and procedures for multiple applications that otherwise would have been separate entities altogether.

So, how do developers bring existing applications, as well as integrate content management systems and search engines, into a portal? And how do developers get started with the Liferay Portal engine? In Practical Liferay: Java�based Portal Applications Development, Dr. Sarang answers these questions and more.

This book is for those who want to learn how to use Liferay to develop vertical or company�specific web portals and beyond. The book will serve as a practical guide to learning Liferay and developing real - world web portals.

XML and Java: Developing Web Applications

Ideal for any Java developer or architect facing todays rich XML based standards and tools, the second edition of XML and Java: Developing Web Applications delivers a wide and deep tour of the latest in todays XML standards and Java tools used to work with them. Whether you want to gain an understanding of basic or advanced uses of XML, chances are this practical minded book will fit the bill, with its far ranging coverage of tools and programming techniques.
The coverage of todays Java XML tools is perhaps unmatched by any text. The authors do a great job at presenting the essentials first, in short, fast moving, understandable chapters, before ranging farther afield. In particular, the coverage of two of the most important XML APIs in todays Java (SAX and DOM) is a standout here. We also liked the benchmarks that show how SAX can offer faster performance, plus the easy to grasp summaries of essential programming APIs for both tools. Beyond the basics, the authors present several advanced techniques, like sending XML over sockets and advanced tricks available in Xerces.

After the basics of parsing XML, the book turns to transforming XML using XSLT, again with a no nonsense, practical tour. Turning toward the server side, the text presents a quick introduction to JSP and servlets and where XML fits into each. (Readers will appreciate the demonstration of creating XML from an ordinary JSP here.) After looking at XML used with databases and messaging, the book focuses in on Web services in a particularly well wrought chapter that covers all of the relevant standards for todays Web services, including how SOAP is really just an extension of XML messaging for the enterprise.

After looking at security issues with XML (including the importance of using secure sockets), a section on the various ways of defining XML documents (from standard DTDs to XML Schema, Schematron, and even RDF) shows the advantages and design goals of each. Handy reference sections list resources for all of todays leading XML based tools and W3C XML standards.

While todays landscape of XML standards and tools can indeed be daunting, this text sorts it out with an enthusiastic treatment of the subject filled with practical advice and an experts take on what working Java developers and system architects need to know when it comes to XML. Richard Dragan

1.Ajax on Java

This practical guide shows you how to make your Java web applications more responsive and dynamic by incorporating new Ajaxian features, including suggestion lists, drag and drop, and more. Java developers can choose between many different ways of incorporating Ajax, from building javascript into yourapplications by hand to using the new Google Web Toolkit (GWT).
Ajax on Java starts with an introduction to Ajax, showing you how to write some basic applications that use client side javascript to request information from a Java servlet and display it without doing a full page reload. It also presents several strategies for communicating between the client and the server, including sending raw data, and using XML or JSON (javascript Object Notation) for sending more complex collections of data.

The book then branches out into different approaches for incorporating Ajax, which include:

The Prototype and script.aculo.us javascript libraries, the Dojo and Rico libraries, and DWR
Integrating Ajax into Java ServerPages (JSP) applications
Using Ajax with Struts
Integrating Ajax into Java ServerFaces (JSF) applications
Using Googles GWT, which offers a pure Java approach to developing web applications: your client side components are written in Java, and compiled into HTML and javascript
Ajax gives web developers the ability to build applications that are more interactive, more dynamic, more exciting and enjoyable for your users. If youre a Java developer and havent tried Ajax, but would like to get started, this book is essential. Your users will be grateful.

Tackle Mult - Core Complexity on the Java Virtual Machine

The increasing popularity and availability of multicore processors is creating a whole new set of challenges - although you can enjoy true concurrency, you're now faced with higher contention and synchronization issues.
Deploying an existing application on a multicore processor may bring out previously hidden concurrency issues. Javas multi threading facility by itself isnt enough its a very low level abstraction. Instead, you need a paradigm that provides a higher level of abstraction to deal with concurrency. Its time to embrace Functional Programming.

Scala is a hybrid Object Oriented/Functional Programming language on the JVM. Using Scala, you can create traditional imperative programs, intermix them with Java code, and at the same time take advantage of higher levels ofabstraction. You can use features that lead to concise, highly expressive code that remove the pain of dealing with concurrency.

Programming Scala will show you the fundamentals of functional programming using Scala. Very quickly, you will learn how this statically typed language can give you dynamic capabilities to create concise, scalable, highly capable concurrent code.

Pragmatic programmers always use the right tool for the job. For concurrent programming on the Java VM, Scala is the tool, and Programming Scala by award winning author Venkat Subramaniam is your guide.

Modular Java

he secret weapon for attacking complexity in any project is to break it down into smaller, cohesive, and more easily digestible pieces. With Modular Java, you can easily develop applications that are more flexible, testable, maintainable, and comprehensible.
Modular Java is a pragmatic guide to developing modular applications using OSGi, the framework for dynamic modularity in Java, and Spring Dynamic Modules, an OSGi extension to the Spring Framework. Youll start with the basics but quickly ramp up, creating loosely coupled modules that publish and consume services, and youll see how to compose them into largerapplications. Along the way, youll apply what you learn as you build a complete web application that is made up of several OSGi modules, using Spring DM to wire those modules together.

Modular Java is filled with tips and tricks that will make you a more proficient OSGi and Spring DM developer. Equipped with the know how gained from this book, youll be able to developapplications that are more robust and agile.

Thinking in Java

�Thinking in Java should be read cover to cover by every Java programmer, then kept close at hand for frequent reference. The exercises are challenging, and the chapter on Collections is superb! Not only did this book help me to pass the Sun Certified Java Programmer exam; it�s also the first book I turn to whenever I have a Java question.�
�Jim Pleger, Loudoun County (Virginia) Government�Much better than any other Java book I�ve seen. Make that �by an order of magnitude��. Very complete, with excellent right-to-the-point examples and intelligent, not dumbed-down, explanations�. In contrast to many other Java books I found it to be unusually mature, consistent, intellectually honest, well-written, and precise. IMHO, an ideal book for studying Java.�
�Anatoly Vorobey, Technion University, Haifa, Israel�Absolutely one of the best programming tutorials I�ve seen for any language.�
�Joakim Ziegler, FIX sysop�Thank you again for your awesome book. I was really floundering (being a non-C programmer), but your book has brought me up to speed as fast as I could read it. It�s really cool to be able to understand the underlying principles and concepts from the start, rather than having to try to build that conceptual model through trial and error. Hopefully I will be able to attend your seminar in the not-too-distant future.�
�Randall R. Hawley, automation technician, Eli Lilly & Co.�This is one of the best books I�ve read about a programming language�. The best book ever written on Java.�
�Ravindra Pai, Oracle Corporation, SUNOS product line�Bruce, your book is wonderful! Your explanations are clear and direct. Through your fantastic book I have gained a tremendous amount of Java knowledge. The exercises are also fantastic and do an excellent job reinforcing the ideas explained throughout the chapters. I look forward to reading more books written by you. Thank you for the tremendous service that you are providing by writing such great books. My code will be much better after reading Thinking in Java. I thank you and I�m sure any programmers who will have to maintain my code are also grateful to you.�
�Yvonne Watkins, Java artisan, Discover Technologies, Inc.�Other books cover the what of Java (describing the syntax and the libraries) or the how of Java (practical programming examples). Thinking in Java is the only book I know that explains the why of Java: Why it was designed the way it was, why it works the way it does, why it sometimes doesn�t work, why it�s better than C++, why it�s not. Although it also does a good job of teaching the what and how of the language, Thinking in Java is definitely the thinking person�s choice in a Java book.�

DWR Java AJAX Applications

AJAX enables rich desktop-like user interfaces in the browser and enables interactive interfaces that can even replace traditional user interfaces. DWR (Direct Web Remoting) is an Open Source Java framework for building AJAX applications. DWR's main idea is to hide AJAX implementation details, like XMLHttpRequest, from developers. By using DWR, you can concentrate on developing the application and business objects and leave AJAX details behind the scenes where they belong. DWR allows server-side Java classes to be used in the browser and javascript functions to be used on the server (Reverse AJAX).

This book will show competent Java programmers how to work with DWR to create powerful AJAX applications. It starts with a tutorial on DWR's main features and functions. Then it covers setting up the development environment. Finally, it concludes with some sample applications.

The later chapters are full of example code for sample applications, to aid comprehension.
