J2EE
What is JEE and where JEE being used?
Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) is the industry,
open standard for developing portable, robust, scalable and
secure server-side Java applications

It is suite of specifications for APIs, a distributed computing
architecture, and definitions for packaging of distributable
components for deployment

Java EE provides various technologies to develop the client
side presentation, server side presentation and the server
side business logic
Java Application, Java Applet, HTML for client side presentation
Servlets/JSP for server side presentation
Enterprise Java Beans (EJB) for server side business logic
J2EE Application Server - JBoss
Powerful, very configurable, an Open Source
Application Server.

Full-fledged Java EE Application Server which
supports Java EE 1.4 specification

It gets all the advantages of Java Programming
language, as it is Java based

Comes in 3 configurations: all, default, minimal
Cont.
Vendors can implement Java EE standard (well
defined specification) to develop Java EE
Application Servers

Java EE Application Servers provide system
services in a well defined and open standard
manner
Red Hat JBoss
Oracle BEA WebLogic
IBM WebSphere

JEE Architecture
Working of a Web Application
Internet uses Client/Server technology for its working

The world wide web uses the Browser as the client software
and Web Server as the server software

The user types the required URL in the browser

The IP Address of the Server is found from the URL

The Web Server will be listening in that Server (machine) at
Port No 80

The browser connects to Port No 80 of the specified Server

Based on the request, the Web Server will deliver the
appropriate page to the browser

HTTP Protocol
Hyper Text Transfer Protocol or HTTP is the protocol used by
the world wide web

According to the HTTP protocol, the client should send a
Request to the server in a special format

Based on the Request, the server will send back a Response,
which again is in a special format

HTTP Request : The following is the request generated by
Internet Explorer when the URL was http://www.yahoo.com
HTTP Response : The server processes the request and sends
a Response



Static Page Vs Dynamic Page
From the web, we get static pages as well as dynamic pages
Static Page Dynamic Page
Can be created and stored in web
server in advance as HTML file.
Can NOT be created and stored in
web server in advance as HTML
file.
Static page does not change with
user and/or time.
Dynamic page changes as per the
user and/or time.
For delivery of static page, all we
require at server side, HTML files
in Web Server.
For delivery of dynamic page,
apart from Web Server, we
require program to generate
dynamic content.
The software component that runs the server side program to generate the
dynamic content is known as the Web Container
Generation of Dynamic Pages
1. User Submits Form and resultant URL:
http://abcbooks.co.in/eshop/
PurchaseItem?iname=Floppy+Disc&qty=12
Web Server
abcbooks.co.in
202.68.33.49
2. Send HTTP Request
for eshop/PurchaseItem with
params
http://abcbooks.co.in/e
Online Shopping
Bill
Floppy Disc
Goods once sold will not be taken back
Happy Shopping
Price: Rs. 240/-
3. Forwards the
request to
a Server Side
Program for
execution
4. Compose HTML
output
Online Shopping
Item
Name
Floppy Disc
Quantity
12
Submit
http://abcbooks.co.in/e
5. Send HTTP Response
which contains the HTML output
of the request
The Internet
Server Side Program
Servlets
Servlet was introduced by Sun Microsystems as an effective
way to generate dynamic content for web applications

Servlet is a Java program that is executed at the server

The server associates the Servlet with a URL

When the URL is invoked, the Servlet is executed

Servlet works in a request/response model
Accepts a request
Carries out the request and sends a response, which can be in
HTML format
Thus, Servlets can be used to generate dynamic pages
Servlet Container
For executing the programs in the server side, the web server requires the
help of a web container

Servlets are executed by a Servlet Container

Tomcat is a Servlet Container that is popularly used

JBoss App Server has Tomcat embedded in it as the default Servlet
Container
The Container should be able to execute any Servlet

This requirement calls for a standard interface for all the Servlets

A class should implement the interface called Servlet in the package
javax.servlet to become a Servlet

Servlets
The important methods of the Servlet interface are as follows
init
service
destroy

JSP - JavaServer Pages
JSP is a technology developed by Sun Microsystems for coding
the presentation layer of an enterprise application
A JSP file is very similar to an HTML file
Unlike HTML files, JSP files will contain some Java code also,
within <% %> elements
The JSP file will have .jsp extension
The server associates the JSP with a URL
When the URL is invoked, the JSP is executed

JSP
Just like a ServletContainer is required for executing a Servlet, a JSP
Container is required for executing a JSP

Tomcat is a very popular JSP container

When a client requests for a JSP, the JSP container sends the HTML tags
as-is to the browser

The code between <% and %> will be compiled, executed and the output
will be sent to the browser

JSP
Can be used to code presentation logic
Can be used to generate dynamic pages
Is as simple as HTML, even web designers can use it easily

Example
<%@ page language="java"%>
<html>
<head>
<title>Add number program in JSP</title>
</head>
<body>
<% int a=5; int b=2;
int result=a+b;
out.print("Additon of a and b :"+result); %>
</body>
</html>
JSP
Servlet
Suitable for coding the presentation layer of an enterprise
application
Servlet
Bits of Java code embedded in HTML
Created and maintained by web designers
Suitable for coding the business layer of an enterprise
application
Created and maintained by Java programmers
Bits of HTML embedded in Java code
JSP
On first invocation, the Web Container
Creates the equivalent Servlet from the JSP

Compiles the Servlet into Java Implementation Class

Executes that Servlet Class

On subsequent invocations, the Web Container

Checks whether the JSP has changed since the equivalent Servlet
has been created
If not, executes the Servlet again
If changed, recreates Servlet, compiles and executes it

Tags in JSP
Tags in JSP can be categorized as

Comments: embedded in <%!-- --%>

Scripting elements
Scriptlets embedded in <% %>
Expression: elements embedded in <%= %>
Methods and class variables: embedded in <%! %>
JSP Lifecycle
The code that should be executed only once when the JSP is
invoked for the first time can be coded in a method jspInit()

The jspInit() method will be executed only once per JSP, not
per request

This method contains code for initializing the JSP

The code that should be executed only once when the JSP is
unloaded from the memory can be coded in a method
jspDestroy()

Implicit Objects
They are made available by the Web Container, in
_jspService() method
Can be used within the Java code (scriptlets) in a JSP, without
ever having to declare them, and hence the name, implicit
objects
They are defined either in Servlet API / in JSP API

IMPLICIT OBJECTS Classes defined in API
out JspWriter
request HTTPServletRequest
response HTTPServletResponse
session HTTPSession
application ServletContext
config ServletConfig
exception * JspException
(* Only available in error pages)
Directive Elements
Directive elements provide information to the
JSP container about the page

JSP can contain three types of directives
page
include
taglib

The page directive has the following form

The include directive can be used to include
the contents of some other file in a JSP


The contents can be static (HTML Page)
or dynamic (Another JSP)


<%@ page attributes %>
<%@ include file = "../Header.html" %>
Action Elements
Action elements are tags that affect the runtime behavior of a
JSP

Action elements are also known as Standard Actions

Some common standard actions are
<jsp:forward>
<jsp:include>
<jsp:useBean>
<jsp:setProperty>
<jsp:getProperty>
<jsp:param>
<jsp:forward page = url />
<jsp:include page = url />
<jsp:useBean id = "myWishObj" class = somePack.WishBean
/>
The above tag is equivalent to the following Java code

somePack.WishBean myWishObj = new somePack.WishBean();
Java EE - APIs
Java EE comes with lots of APIs.
Some of the APIs are already covered in
Advanced Java:
JDBC
RMI

Some other important APIs in Java EE are:
JNDI
JMS

Enterprise Java Bean (EJB)
EJB is a server-side software component that can be deployed in a
distributed multi-tier environment.
Used to build distributed components
EJBs implement the Business Logic of the enterprise application.
In a banking application, for example, the enterprise beans might
implement the business logic in methods called deposit and withdraw
By invoking these methods, clients can access the banking services
provided by the application

An EJB is a Plain Old Java Object (POJO) which implements Plain Old Java
Interfaces (POJI)
EJBs are NOT same as JavaBeans
An EJB is written using the EJB API (javax.ejb.*) and is deployed into an EJB
container.

The client of an EJB could be
- a servlet
- a JSP
- a stand alone Java application
- an applet
- a SOAP based web service client
- another EJB

EJB technology is based on two other
technologies: Java RMI-IIOP and JNDI.




Types of EJB
There are 3 types of EJBs depending on the
design requirement:
Session Bean stateless and stateful
Entity Bean Container persistent and Bean
persistent
Message Driven Bean - A Message-driven Bean
is considered as a JMS MessageListener, which
processes JMS messages asynchronously
