Course #:WA1303 Introduction to Struts 1.1 using Eclipse Training This course introduces the students to Jakarta Struts 1.1. During the course, students will learn to design and develop Struts based applications. Students learn how to incorporate JSPs, servlets, EJBs and JavaBeans into their design. Corresponding to every chapter, there is a lab reinforcing the concept. Objectives Understand and explain the Jakarta Struts framework Design and build Struts based applications Topics Struts Architecture and Overview A Simple Struts Application Struts Development Cycle Struts Tag Libraries Struts Extensions, Internationalization, Error Handling and Logging Miscellaneous Advanced Features such as Validators and DynaActionForm Database Programming Templates and Tiles Unit Testing Struts Applications - StrutsTestCase JSTL Audience This course is intended for programmers and designers who want to design and develop applications using the Jakarta Struts Model-View-Controller (MVC) framework. Prerequisites A good understanding of HTML. A good understanding of object-oriented programming using Java. Experience with JSPs and servlets with some understanding of JavaBeans or EJBs. Duration Three days. Outline of Introduction to Struts 1.1 using Eclipse Training 1. Struts Architecture and Overview Introduction to Struts Objectives Review: MVC model What is Struts? Struts flow Components in Struts? The Model The View The Controller struts-config.xml The <data-sources> element The <form-beans> element The <global-forwards> element The <action-mappings> element Sample The role of web.xml for the application Configuring Struts in web.xml web.xml content Steps to configuring Struts in web.xml Sample Summary 2. A Simple Struts Application The Goal of the Application The input form· The struts-config.xml The Form Bean class The Action class The result page 3. Struts features in Eclipse Objectives Struts binary distribution Directory structure of Struts application Example Eclipse support for Struts Developing a web application using Eclipse features of Struts 4. Struts Development Cycle Objectives Struts development cycle Gathering requirements Defining screen requirements Data vs. FormBean define FormBean Determining the screen flow Defining the ActionMappings in struts-config.xml Developing the FormBean The reset ( ) method Form validation using the validate ( ) method ActionError Define message key Developing Action Class Action and Action Class The execute() method ActionForward ActionMapping class execute() example Example execute() method Developing business logic - EJB Developing JSPs Configuring struts-config.xml and web.xml Build, pack and deploy 5. Struts Tag Libraries Objectives JSP taglib directive Components of a tag library The JSP File The tag library descriptor The tag Handler Class An example The TLD File - carPrice.tld TDL File - example The Handler Class - CarPriceHandler.java The Handler Class - example The JSP File - Carprice.jsp Tag Lib Handler life cycle Directory structure: where custom tag libraries fit Struts TagLib Bean tags bean:message bean:define bean:page bean:include bean:cookie HTML tags html:form html:submit html:text html:link html:password Logic tags Functionality logic:equal logic:iterate Template tags 6. Struts Plugin, Internationalization and Error Handling Objectives Struts plugins Creating a plugin Configuring a plugin Internationalization Struts Internationalization Mechanisms Adding internationalization to the example application Formatting messages Error Handling Struts Error Handling Mechanisms ActionError and ActionErrors Error handling from a form bean Error handling from an action Formatting error messages Struts exception handling Adding error handling to the example application 7. Miscellaneous Advanced Features Objectives HTTP Redirection Dealing with check boxes Context sensitive form validation DispatchAction BeanUtils package Digester package DynaActionForms Multi-application support Validators 8. Database Programming Configuring and using a Struts Data Source Using a J2EE Data Source Transaction management from an action Sharing a connection with the model classes Pre-populating a form for editing data Paginated listing of large amounts of data 9. Templates, Tiles and JSTL Objectives Struts Templates Template tags - insert, get and put Struts 1.1 tiles support Inheritance in tiles definitions JSTL overview JSTL and Struts 10. Unit Testing Struts Applications - StrutsTestCase Objectives What is JUnit? A sample JUnit test case A simple StrutsTest test case Executing a StrutsTest test Testing strategies 11. JSTL Objectives The future of Struts Tags JSTL - What does it provide? JSTL actions Core JSTL tags Formatting tags Database tags XML tags JSTL Expression Language JSTL Implicit Objects We regularly offer classes in these and other cities. Atlanta, Austin, Baltimore, Calgary, Chicago, Cleveland, Dallas, Denver, Detroit, Houston, Jacksonville, Miami, Montreal, New York City, Orlando, Ottawa, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Pittsburgh, Seattle, Toronto, Vancouver, Washington DC.
