Tech Articles J2EEThis tutorial is about building Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) components using Eclipse as an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and JBOSS as the Application Server. Tutorial covers step-by-step development of J2EE components, starting from setting up Eclipse, JBOSS and Lomboz. Lomboz uses Xdoclet (Attribute Oriented Programming) for rapid development of J2EE components. Importantly, all of the tools used in this tutorial can be downloaded free of charge, so there should be nothing stopping you!
It is Third-ranked J2EE tutorial in the world on the Google rankings.
Before you start this tutorial, you should ideally have a working knowledge of Java technology, XML, J2EE technology and some exposure to SQL, JDBC concepts, and Xdoclet (Attribute Oriented Programming). Even if you are new to a lot of this then don't panic – just expect to do a bit more learning along the way!
All the examples covered in this tutorial were developed on RedHat Linux 8.0, Sun Microsystem's JDK (j2sdk1.4.1_02), using Eclipse 2.1 as the IDE, and Lomboz 2.1_02 plugin for Eclipse. JBOSS-3.2.1 is being used as an application server to deploy applications. Jetty is used as the web server and Hypersonic SQL as the database, both of which are integrated in the JBOSS application server.
You will need a current version of Java Development Kit (JDK) or Java Runtime Environment (JRE) - at least JDK 1.3 onwards. Eclipse 2.1 is required as an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) along with the Eclipse plug-in Lomboz 2.1_02 for J2EE applications development and JBOSS integration.
JBOSS-3.2.1 is being used as an application server to deploy applications, together with its embedded Jetty web server and Hypersonic SQL database as noted above.
