Java Training Overview
A comprehensive look at the state of the art in developing interoperable web services on the Java EE 6 platform. Students learn the key standards for both SOAP-based and RESTful services, and the Java architectures that have evolved to build interoperable services and clients.
We begin with an introductory module that covers both SOAP-based and RESTful services, and therefore both JAX-WS and JAX-RS. We then discuss JAXB, as this highly useful XML API is integral to both.
The remainder of the course is split between two larger modules, each of which falls on one side of the fence: either SOAP services with JAX-WS, or RESTful services with JAX-RS. We cover SOAP, WSDL, and both WSDL-driven and Java-driven development paths for JAX-WS, as well as client-side development. Then students work with the Jersey implementation of JAX-RS to create RESTful services, from simple single-value interactions to more sophisticated services that manage CRUD (create/retrieve/update/delete) operations on more complex data types, using JAXB to marshal and unmarshal data over the wire.
Java Training Learning Objectives
- Be able to describe the interoperable web services architecture, including the roles of SOAP and WSDL in component-based services and XML and HTTP in the REST architecture.
- Understand the importance of the WS-I Basic Profile for interoperable web services.
- Build JAX-WS services and clients that take full advantage of the automated data binding of JAXB.
- Build WSDL-to-Java and Java-to-WSDL services, with equal facility.
- Use JAX-RS to develop simple RESTful services.
- Control dispatching to service methods based on URL patterns and HTTP methods.
- Bind request values to method parameters when expressed as HTTP query parameters, form values, headers, cookies, and more.
- Manage XML content using XML Schema and JAXB.
- Incorporate XML entities into service input and output.
- Take advantage of lifecycle and context services available to JAX-RS services as Java EE components.
Java Training Prerequisites
- Strong Java programming skills are essential. Course "Java Programming" is excellent preparation
·
- Students must be able to read XML documents and to write well-formed XML by hand -- Knowledge of XML Schema will be helpful, too, but is not a strict prerequisite.
·
- Experience with other Java EE standards, especially servlets and JSP, will be very helpful in class, but is not strictly required
Server Support: GlassFish
This version of the course works with the GlassFish server. Our Java EE courses are available in variants that support various server products, including Tomcat, GlassFish, JBoss, and WebLogic.
